In the evening, Li Mu treated guests to dinner at a high-end hotel in Yanjing. On the one hand, he thanked Xu Jiaming for his matchmaking, and on the other hand, he also wanted to deepen the mutual impression with several bank presidents. It is inevitable that he will have to ask the bank for help with many things in the future.
Li Mu is now carrying the banner of 3321, and the nature of asking for help has changed qualitatively. When the other party heard that he was related to 3321, he not only had an excellent attitude, but also was full of sincerity.
At the dinner table, Li Mu drank a few glasses of wine with the branch presidents of the four major banks. The atmosphere was different from the atmosphere in Xu Jiaming's office in the afternoon. After three rounds of drinks at the dinner table, they both changed to the way of communication between friends. The atmosphere was very easy.
Li Mu is in a good mood. At present, Alipay is taking shape. After signing the contract next week, he can quickly start debugging and testing the interface between Alipay and the bank. After passing the test, he can fully open the 3321 system. User promoted.
Leaving aside 3321, a non-profit public welfare organization, Li Mu's layout on the Internet has just begun. Yiting.com has laid out music auditions, Tieba has laid out communities, and is preparing to launch classic products in the community field such as personal space and stealing food. Once these products become popular, Tieba users will not only reach a new level, but also use games to encourage users to establish their own connections in Tieba. As long as the connections are established, they will have the basis to compete with QQ for jobs. At that time, as long as you develop an instant messaging software yourself, it will pose a great threat to Tencent.
As for e-commerce, Li Mu now feels a little out of his depth.
After Alipay is established, it stands to reason that it can directly promote the Taobao project. If Taobao is launched in 2002, it will be more than a year ahead of Alibaba. However, the biggest problem right now is the lack of manpower. Kong Lingyu’s future affairs There will be more and more, and it is basically impossible for him to take care of so many. But once an e-commerce platform like Taobao is launched, it must go all out to expand its territory, otherwise it is very likely to be chased and crushed by rising stars, so Li Mu What we need most right now is talent.
On Sunday, Li Mu asked Kong Lingyu to arrange a leadership meeting before Alipay went online. At present, there are several key figures in Makino Technology, one is Kong Lingyu, the other is Lin Qingya, and the financial director hired by Lin Qingya .
In addition to the heads of these three departments, Li Mu also asked Kong Lingyu to summon his three technical leaders, who are also the Team-Leaders of the project team. Makino Technology currently has 27 technical staff, which are divided into three technical personnel. group, managed by Kong Lingyu.
At ten o'clock in the morning, Li Mu took a taxi to Makino Technology. The core staff of Makino Technology had been waiting in the conference room for a long time.
Since the current three technical project team leaders of Makino Technology are all veteran employees when developing Yiting.com, they are very familiar with Li Mu. However, Lin Qingya is somewhat embarrassed because she only recently found out that the first One time when Dong Ai introduced her work, her junior at the dinner table turned out to be the boss behind Makino Technology, and the two of them had not met since then. Today, Li Mu suddenly had to hold a core staff meeting, and the two of them finally Goodbye for the second time.
Lin Qingya was very grateful and fortunate that she was able to enter Makino Technology and get 1% of the options from the beginning. After she actually entered the company, she quickly realized that Makino Technology has huge development potential, and the A round The valuation is 50 million. Even the people in the industry are unable to give a clear valuation for the Series B round of financing because they have seen the difference in product concepts of Yiting.com and Tieba. Who knew that before the Series B financing, Makino Technology will come up with some shocking products.
Li Mu already had a basic idea of Lin Qingya's positioning when they first met, that is, he would be the future general manager of Makino's technology support department. In other words, in addition to technology and product development, he could be trained in other jobs. She'll take it.
She graduated from Renmin University and has accumulated enough knowledge in finance and management. She has also worked in Japanese companies for three years. Li Mu has always felt that Japanese companies are the best place to hone their patience. Lin Qingya was able to do three tasks in her first job. In 2016, on the one hand, it proved that her work ability was recognized by SoftBank. On the other hand, it also proved that she already had workplace determination and patience that her peers did not have.
During this period, Li Mu's understanding of the situation of Makino Technology and the feedback given by Kong Lingyu also confirmed that his original vision was correct. Lin Qingya was very patient and good at using her brain. After Makino Technology moved to Yanjing, every new The members recruited were all recruited or poached by Lin Qingya through various channels, and these new employees have very high professional skills and qualities. Even Kong Lingyu was surprised. She is a person who does not understand technology, and she is very interested in technical talents. His judgment is actually better than his, and his sense of smell in the workplace is extremely sensitive.
In the conference room, when veteran employees including Kong Lingyu saw Li Mu, they all greeted him warmly and called him Mr. Li. However, Lin Qingya and another financial director in his thirties were somewhat embarrassed.
Kong Lingyu introduced the financial director to Li Mu. His name was Li Yuanyuan, a native of Yanjing. He had eight years of work experience. His last job was at a well-known venture capital company. He didn’t know how he was deceived by Lin Qingya to join Makino Technology, a company with dozens of companies. In people’s stalls.
Li Yuanyuan was very curious about Li Mu, not only because it was the first time she met this boss who was under twenty years old, but also because she had seen Li Mu on TV many times before and was quite amazed by his and 3321's success. Unexpectedly He is actually the boss of his own company. His ability to produce two large-scale Internet projects at such a young age is evident.
Li Mu shook hands with Li Yuanyuan and said hello. Lin Qingya on the side had already stepped forward and stretched out a hand: "Mr. Li, I finally meet you again. This should be our second meeting, right?"
Li Mu smiled slightly and said, "Don't be surprised if I didn't explain the details of Makino clearly during our last meal."
Lin Qingya nodded and said with a smile: "I'm not offended, and I want to thank you for giving me such a good opportunity."
Li Mu said with a smile: "Thank you for your belief in Makino Technology and the other people in the team. It is definitely a fate that we can work together in a team from all over the world. I also hope that everyone can work with the company and cherish it." .”
The words "Quality and Cherish" made everyone present feel a warm feeling. Li Mu immediately walked to the whiteboard and said, "Let's get to the point. I came here today mainly for three things. The first one is our Makino Technology The next step is new product development, the second step is Makino Technology’s next step of personnel and organizational structure adjustments, and the third step is some plans for Series B financing.”
As he spoke, Li Mu wrote three brief outlines of "product development, organizational structure, and Series B financing" on the blackboard. After writing, he said to the six people present: "What we talked about in this conference room today Everything is the secret of the next development of Makino Technology, and everyone must remember not to leak any content about the meeting."
