Chapter 310 Unexpected Harvest
Tonghai University, a milk tea shop next to the Music Square.
Xu Chen and Sun Amy each held a cup of milk tea and were still chatting.
Amy Sun looked around and said:
"Isn't Tonghai University a science and engineering school? Why do the buildings here look so artistic?"
The overall architectural style of Tonghai University still inherits the German "Bauhaus" style.
However, each college building still has its own characteristics and "weird" features.
Xu Chen explained with a smile: "The school has a very good architecture department, so when each college wants to build a building, the 'big names' in the architecture department come out to show off their skills."
Amy Sun: “How can it still be like this...”
Xu Chen's phone vibrated, he took it out and took a look, and found that it was Yan Chuan from Jeep, adding his MSN friends.
[Hello, Teacher Xu Chen! I have been promoting the project in the past two days, especially BBDO. I urged them to quickly join the directing team.
Then I will start a follow-up project communication group...]
[Okay, we at Dongchen Advertising will respond at any time! 】
[There was something else I didn’t tell Teacher Xu Chen just now...
Spokesperson Wang Shi said that he wanted to get to know Mr. Xu Chen. Vincent revealed that he might have a project in the future and wanted to cooperate with Dongchen Advertising. 】
Xu Chen was stunned for a moment, then confirmed and asked:
[It means that Wang Shi may have a project. Do you want to find Dongchen Advertising? 】
Yan Chuan replied:
[I had a conference call with Mr. Vincent this morning, but he didn’t explain it very clearly.
But from what I heard, it seemed that Mr. Wang Chi Wang’s side did have this intention.
The main reason is that Mr. Wang seems to appreciate and like the plans and copywriting sent by Dongchen Advertising this time.
I estimate that Vanke may have real estate projects in the future and contact Mr. Xu Chen! 】
Xu Chen couldn't help but smile. He didn't expect there would be unexpected gains from the project.
From this time in 2006, and continuing for more than ten years, the domestic real estate industry was still booming.
In the advertising industry, a number of advertising companies and advertising people have even been born, focusing exclusively on real estate projects.
After all, a large number of real estate projects are launched every year and every month, and each real estate project requires advertising and promotion.
At their peak, several domestic advertising companies focusing on real estate were making a lot of money.
If we can get Vanke's project from Wang Shi, it will open up another good industry business line for Dongchen Advertising.
And in fact, real estate advertising projects are not particularly stressful.
Especially the popular properties of big real estate companies are very popular when they are launched.
Even without any advertising, they sold out quickly.
As for those listed real estate companies, since the budget reported at the beginning of the year has been consumed, they have to find advertising companies to spend the money.
Of course, in this process, some unscrupulous people will also take the opportunity to make some profit...
Under this circumstance, many real estate advertisements are more purely "generating momentum" and have been decoupled from real estate sales.
In terms of advertising creativity, you can do whatever you want.
Another reason why Xu Chen is now considering doing two more projects and making more money is that he is already planning "Burning Ice Sports".
After all, starting the ice-burning sports project still requires a large amount of capital.
For his father Xu Zhiquan, "Morning Wind Technology" is still in the "money-burning" pure investment stage, and Xu Chen does not want to put too much financial pressure on his father.
If the income from the few projects in hand is put together at present, if he takes on a few more projects, he should be able to make several million.
Then the start-up capital for "Burning Ice Sports" is already available.
If it's really not enough, it's not too late to reach out to his father. Xu Zhiquan will eventually be able to get some money out.
Of course, Xu Chen can also consider some external financing methods. In this regard, Teacher Fang Jun can also help find channels and follow the procedures.
But the most important thing is that Xu Chen does not want to dilute the shares of "Burning Ice Sports".
He and Xie Bingran still need to have absolute control over "Burning Ice Sports".
Everything is decided by two people, so it is better to be more free.
If there are external investors or investment institutions, they will inevitably have to come in and "point their fingers". They will also have to report and review financial data at the end of the year. Xu Chen also gets a headache just thinking about it.
In the business cases I have seen and heard in my previous life, there are many cases where the introduction of external funds due to financing eventually led to the loss of control of the company.
Even if outsiders simply come to make suggestions, Xu Chen finds it very troublesome...
It's still up to you to decide.
After all, for Xu Chen and the current "little rich woman", they are no longer so short of money in life.
So when doing "Burning Ice Sports", we don't just consider the size of the company, the company's revenue, making money and profits.
Xu Chen wants to toss "Ranbing Sports", and now he really wants to build a sustainable brand for Xie Bingran.
……
……
While Xu Chen was thinking about this, Yan Chuan replied in the message:
[From what I heard from Mr. Vincent, Mr. Wang Shi and Wang probably just mentioned it, and they probably have preliminary intention to do so.
If Dongchen Advertising is also interested, Mr. Xu Chen can contact Mr. Wang when the time comes to follow up on the filming of the commercial. 】
Xu Chen thought for a while and replied:
[Okay, I have an idea.
Thank you Mr. Yan for informing me of this information. I will pay attention to it and contact Mr. Wang proactively when following up on the advertising video of spokesperson Wang Shi! 】
[Teacher Xu Chen is so polite! The main reason is that Dongchen’s plan is good. It is reasonable to be favored by more customers. 】
……
Xu Chen picked up his mobile phone and smiled at Sun Amy:
“I feel like our project will not be able to stop soon.”
Amy Sun: "Ah?! Boss, do we have a new project?"
Xu Chen smiled mysteriously: "Not yet, but I have intention."
He thought for a moment and then said:
"When Gu Xinxin comes in, it will be easier for the three of us to work together.
We’ll look at it later and consider expanding the team if we get too busy.
But I don’t want the scale of Dongchen Advertising to be too big. If there are more people in the team, there will be more troubles.
If more and more projects come to us in the future, you can still pick and choose. ”
He paused and looked at Sun Amy:
"We only do projects that are profitable, fun, and that we want to do!"
Amy Sun: "Okay! This is the best!"
Xu Chen joked: "With these projects in hand, I can already give you a big year-end bonus for Teacher Amy!"
The company has constant projects, but of course it still has to promise and deliver on employee benefits, otherwise it will be difficult to retain people's hearts.
Amy Sun was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said:
"Boss, let me treat you to dinner and milk tea next time!"
Xu Chen laughed and was very happy.
“One more thing, I have to design an official website for ‘Dongchen Advertising’.
I have classmates here who can build a website, and you can just design the website pages. ”
Amy Sun: "What modules and content are needed? What is the delivery time?"
Xu Chen: “The content doesn’t need to be too complicated, it should be presentation-oriented.
Let’s take a look at the brands we are currently cooperating with, including Wanglaoshun, Renhe Pharmaceutical, Kunlun Mountain, Jeep... and Chenfeng Technology.
There is no need to put specific cases first, just put the logo of the cooperative brand.
Then when Gu Xinxin joins the job, leave Xinxin’s email and phone number. In this way, when business comes to you, there is also an open communication channel.
There is no rush for time. Just do it in your spare time. When you're done, tell me and I'll find someone to build the website. ”
Amy Sun: "Okay! Then I will publish a few design drafts and let the boss choose."
……
……
afternoon.
Xu Chen first took a compulsory general course on "Marxist-Leninist Politics", and then rushed to the computer room in Xiaohuang Building to study "Computer Graphics Design" for his major.
The so-called "computer graphic design" means learning basic design software operations, including Photoshop and CorelDRAW.
In fact, this is what Amy Sun is doing now.
Due to the accumulation of work in his previous life, Xu Chen still has some basic operational foundations, and he can be considered "familiar" in learning.
The "Advertising Department" is not a complete design major, so the learning of these design software is basically just a taste, and does not require much depth.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
What's more, the college teachers who are teaching Photoshop operations are not even the slightest bit different from Sun Amy in terms of "technical" skills.
If you really want to learn technology, it might be faster to learn from Amy Sun.
……
between classes.
Xu Chen was sitting in the back row, still completing the design homework for this class, when several boys suddenly gathered around him.
Xu Chen was confused, not knowing what these people were doing with such smiles.
"The little prince of Jiangsu and Zhejiang" Qian Xin put his arms around Xu Chen's neck and said with a smile:
"Who is that girl at noon?"
Xu Chen was stunned: "Ah?!"
Qian Xin: "We all saw it. We went to the canteen together and drank milk tea together!
Boss Xu can do it...
Those who are slightly chubby are the best, and they are still sweet and cute! ”
"Stock Speculator" Pei Qian also came over:
"It's really unexpected that Boss Xu is the first person in our class to be single."
Xu Chen was speechless, and he was actually talking about Sun Amy.
"Computer expert" Hong Xiaoqiang said with a smile:
"Also let me introduce you to the brothers. Which college are you from?
She looks like a senior! ”
Qian Xin shook his head and said:
"Senior, hello! Senior, I know everything!"
Xu Chen looked helpless and said:
"That's a colleague from my company."
Qian Xin didn't seem to care: "Come on, do you really have a company and employees?"
Xu Chen was a little distressed, but he was actually too lazy to bother with explanations and wanted to get over there quickly.
"Literary youth" Chen Wenyi was also nearby, raised his hand slightly and said:
"Xu Chen really has a company, I even went to see it!"
Another clear and pleasant voice came from behind:
"I've also gone to see him. He really has a company."
Several boys were stunned and looked back, but they all instantly became a little shy.
Especially Pei Qian and Chen Wenyi looked nervous.
Xu Chen looked up and saw that it was Su Rong, the "art committee member".
This reminds me of the food incident during the last autumn outing. Chen Wenyi and Su Rong both went to the office of Tonghai Creative Design Building and had a meal of crab together there.
Later, when Xu Chen wanted to move the mattress, he asked Chen Wenyi to help him move it.
……
Seeing the "goddess" Su Rong walking over, these carefree boys seemed a little shy for a moment.
Su Rong had already walked over, but she seemed to find the atmosphere a bit strange, so she turned back without saying what she just said.
Qian Xin was stunned and looked at Xu Chen with a smile:
"You really have a company, what do you do?"
Xu Chen said casually: "It's just an advertising project, I do it for fun."
Qian Xin smiled: "My company also needs to do promotion. Can I get a discount if I come back to you?"
"Okay, I'm just afraid that I can't serve Mr. Qian well."
Xu Chen was fooling around casually, just as the second half of class was about to begin.
Seeing the teacher come in, the boy turned around and dispersed.
Xu Chen smiled helplessly.
In the second class, they continued to complete their homework on the computer, and a group of students also worked hard on the computer.
Xu Chen finished his homework quickly. He logged into QQ and MSN and was able to handle some work.
Hong Xiaoqiang, the "computer expert" in the same dormitory, was sitting next to Xu Chen. He turned his head and whispered:
"One day, take me to your company for a visit!"
Xu Chen smiled and said: "Okay, I just have a project that I'm looking for your help with!"
Hong Xiaoqiang: "What project?"
Xu Chen: “I mentioned to you last time that I want to build my own company’s website.
I have already asked the designer to start the design. When the front-end web page is ready, I need help to build a display site. ”
Hong Xiaoqiang smiled confidently: "Just come to me for the design, and I'll take care of it!"
He was still a little surprised. He didn't expect Xu Chen to actually build the company's official website?
Last time Xu Chen talked about this need, I thought he was just saying it casually.
Hong Xiaoqiang frowned again, why did Xu Chen's company sound so decent...
You rented an office, you have colleagues and employees, and now you want to build a website?
……
……
Xu Chen flipped through the news for a while, and then remembered the incident between An Jinxiong and Chen Jinru.
This matter is still of great importance, no wonder Xu Chen always thinks about it.
After all, it is related to Xie Bingran's endorsement of "Morning Wind Technology" and "Burning Ice Sports", and also related to his plan to recruit Nie Fei...
If there is still no progress, Xu Chen will have to consider other methods. After all, the troublesome obstacles created by An Jinxiong still need to be cleared as soon as possible.
Xu Chen opened the web page and logged into the Sohu blog.
Entering the "Private Message" page, no new messages were sent.
Xu Chen clicked on the "Ask about tea and wine" dialog box, hesitated for a moment and then took the initiative to ask:
[Hello netizen, is there any progress on your side? 】
Unexpectedly, "Ask Tea and Make Wine" happened to be online, and he immediately replied:
[There is progress...but I am still confirming it. 】
Xu Chen did not directly ask about the progress, but from the perspective of a purely "enthusiastic netizen", he replied:
【It’s good if there is progress! I'm very happy to be able to help you. Good luck! 】
This is a deliberate act of not caring about the "specific circumstances of the case", and it is also out of a layer of self-protection.
"Ask about tea and make wine" replied directly:
[I also have two former colleagues who are relatively familiar with me within the company...
They told me that the big boss has not appeared in the company these days, and has not even participated in a very important high-level event.
I think my report was effective and he has probably been investigated!
I was just searching for news, but so far I haven’t seen anything! 】
