Volume 2: Storm Rising 2015 Chapter 214: Visit
Dongguan, a city located in the central area of eastern Guangdong, is a megacity in the province. It is directly located in the central city on the east bank of the Pearl River Delta, with Guangzhou to the northwest and Pengcheng to the south.
Under such a unique environment, the development of this city can be imagined , and the city of Dongguan has always been known as the "world factory". After all, the factories of countless large and small companies are located in this city.
Of course, this city was once nationally renowned in a certain field. Even though it has now become a legend, it is still one of the topics that many people talk about with relish.
In response to this, Zhou Dongsheng could only say with regret: "I was born at the wrong time!"
Since the two cities are very close, Zhou Dongsheng simply chose to drive directly and brought Huang Zheng and the others directly to Dongzhu to visit the big boss Duan Yongping.
Under Huang Zheng's guidance, Zhou Dongsheng drove to a quiet villa area. Before approaching a detached villa, he saw a middle-aged man with dark skin and a simple face standing in front of the door from afar.
At first glance, it seems ordinary, but those calm eyes are unforgettable.
Zhou Dongsheng parked the car over there and Huang Zheng hurriedly got out to greet him.
"Teacher, how can we ask you to come out and greet us in person?"
Duan Yongping waved his hand in a casual manner, "Although I'm used to being outside, I still know the basics of hospitality, not to mention that I invited you here as a guest."
"Seeing is believing. It's my honor to come and visit Mr. Duan." Zhou Dongsheng said politely with a little restraint.
Duan Yongping was slightly stunned, but seeing Zhou Dongsheng's youthful appearance, he couldn't help but sigh: "This is the first time a young man calls me Mr. Duan. It's not that I'm old, but that you're too young."
Duan Yongping was only over 50 years old, but in front of Zhou Dongsheng, who was in his early 20s, being called Mr. Duan was nothing.
"Let's go in and have some tea. Huang Zheng said you like tea, so I have prepared a pot of good tea." Duan Yongping casually extended his hand to gesture, then walked straight in.
Huang Zheng followed Duan Yongping closely and started chatting with his teacher, basically talking about "promoting good products". Duan Yongping nodded from time to time and listened very seriously.
The decoration style of the whole
"In fact, I don't quite understand the project that Huang Zheng is working on this time. I usually reserve my opinion on things that I don't understand very well. But after listening to your profound remarks, I have a better understanding of this project."
"In my opinion, Huang Zheng is really lucky to have met a noble person in you, just like an angel investor in the investment world." Duan Yongping started praising Zhou Dongsheng right away, which really made Zhou Dongsheng unable to do anything.
I'm used to flattering others all the time, so why am I flattered by a big boss right at the start of the meeting? But you know what, it's different to be flattered by a big boss, it feels good!
"It's not as amazing as Mr. Duan said. In my opinion, Brother Huang is truly amazing. Ordinary people have long been pessimistic about the saturation of the e-commerce field. Only Brother Huang, who has the spirit of fighting to the end in the e-commerce field, can create miracles that ordinary people cannot do."
Zhou Dongsheng turned to flatter Huang Zheng, and Duan Yongping nodded with a smile, "This is also one of the reasons why I admire Huang Zheng. If an entrepreneur does not have this kind of paranoid spirit, it is often difficult for him to achieve success that ordinary people cannot achieve."
"In the investment industry, projects are dead, but people are alive. The success or failure of an investment project often depends on the perseverance of the entrepreneur."
Huang Zheng felt that this sounded familiar. Wasn't this what Zhou Dongsheng said when he was "fooling" him?
I didn't expect that Zhou Dongsheng, at such a young age, had already reached a consensus with his teacher on investment philosophy. He is indeed a genius.
"Thank you for your advice, Mr. Duan. In the investment industry, you are the real senior, and I am just a rookie." Zhou Dongsheng readily agreed.
Gu Pinpin, who was standing by, watched the three grown men carrying the sedan chair, but he did not interrupt and just listened quietly.
While drinking tea and chatting, the topic naturally came up with the "Push Good Goods" project. Huang Zheng explained the concept of new social e-commerce in a simple and clear manner.
“Being able to achieve over 10,000 daily active users in just one month is enough to prove the potential of your social e-commerce, but you still have to transform it into a platform as soon as possible to achieve scale,” Duan Yongping said casually.
"Junior sister is already working on this aspect of the work. Originally, she was not optimistic about my model, but Dongsheng's words moved her." Huang Zheng smiled knowingly when he said this.
Gu Pinpin nodded calmly, "Dongsheng's talk about the sinking market and the strategy of 'surrounding the cities from the countryside' really clearly explains the market prospects and demand of the 'promoting good products' model."
"For this kind of product demand that puts food in front of your mouth, I just need to make it into a mature product."
"In fact, the sinking market opened up by mobile Internet is indeed the biggest outlet for the Internet in the next few years. Any product made for this market may achieve unexpected success."
"After all, the group representing the entire sinking market is nearly half of our country's population. They are like the general public living on the other side of the Internet and have various needs."
"When mobile Internet lowered the threshold to access the Internet to only a smartphone, the other half of the population officially logged on to the Internet."
Zhou Dongsheng spoke freely and briefly talked about his views on the sinking market. Duan Yongping listened very carefully, nodded from time to time, and his eyes showed no disguising his admiration for Zhou Dongsheng.
"This reminds me of an old saying: Nothing is difficult for a person who sets his mind to it. Huang Zheng and you, my friend, are both people with a mind to it, and that's why you noticed this market that others haven't noticed."
"As the saying goes, heroes are made of times. In the ever-changing Internet era, the demands and opportunities that continue to emerge can only be seized by people like you who are interested."
Duan Yongping sighed, Zhou Dongsheng and Huang Zheng smiled at each other, with a sense of mutual appreciation.
"By the way, Mr. Duan, after having a great chat with Brother Huang yesterday, I have a new, immature idea. I wanted to take this opportunity to share it so that we can all have a chat and brainstorm."
"Oh? Please go ahead, young friend." Upon hearing this, Duan Yongping also put on an attitude of listening attentively.
"That is the opportunity hidden in the national policy. Yesterday I talked with Brother Huang about the success of promoting good products, which is inseparable from the policy of supporting farmers."
"But after some reflection, I realized that the policy to help farmers is actually the country's poverty alleviation strategy, which is aimed at achieving the strategic goal of building a moderately prosperous society in all respects."
"As Mr. Duan said, current events make heroes. Whoever can do better in this trend will undoubtedly be able to follow the trend of history and achieve greater success!"
Zhou Dongsheng said this in a resounding voice. Duan Yongping's eyes flashed and the look he gave Zhou Dongsheng was completely different.
