569: Chapter 94: Co, the electric fan is here, *_3 569: Chapter 94: Co, the electric fan is here, *_3 Bro, this is tough, how about you give it a shot?
CEO Cheng didn’t discuss these matters with Sun Dongxin previously for three reasons, first, his own strength wasn’t enough, referring to his comprehensive power, second, Dongxin Group lacked the strategic courage to burn all bridges, and third, there was no leverage in the e-comrce industry.
Doing things step by step is the right way, but in Hua Country, the e-comrce industry is a bloody battlefield, and without so unique skills, you won’t survive.
Doing things step by step = certain death!
With the traffic from Shanhaiguan and MAS, cross-border e-comrce and social e-comrce could be attempted, but in reality, there are many problems and difficulties.
How to talk to brand rchants, how to build overseas warehouses, how to achieve industry-average logistics—yes, it’s that difficult, even aiming for the industry average is tough.
When it cos to cross-border business, you can’t skip logistics, but reaching industry averages isn’t easy, the competitive landscape in this field is truly fierce.
There are many more details like this to be mindful of, perhaps tens of thousands of words wouldn’t cover them all.
Hearing what Cheng Daqi said, Sun Dongxin didn’t rush to express his opinion.
He couldn’t possibly do so lightly.
Originally, he just wanted to chat casually, the kind of talk you’d have with friends for fun.
But who would have thought, this young Cheng Daqi was seriously considering it.
It’s like bragging to a friend that you can sleep with a fan, but then your friend actually brings you a fan.
Cheng Daqi: “Here, the fan is right here, go ahead.”
Sun Dongxin was stupefied.
And your MAS is still small?
After a funding round of thirty million dollars, which is almost two hundred million, you’re way more formidable than I am.
“I really admire your approach to doing things.
You say I’m stable, but you’re pretty stable yourself!”
Seeing Sun Dongxin cheerfully pass over his signal for help, CEO Cheng was in no rush.
There was plenty of ti for this matter.
Today was rely about giving a heads-up, to do e-comrce, you need to prepare well on all fronts, and only when various conditions are t in the future can you have a chance at success.
So things need to be rushed, and so things must not be rushed at all.
It’s mainly a matter of cost.
If the “Farm it out” variety show failed, at most a few million dollars would be wasted.
If an e-comrce project is launched and ends up burning through resources, losing three hundred million would be considered rciful.
“I still have lots to learn from you.
By the way, Mi’er and I are going for an inspection this afternoon, and I’m quite familiar with Hua Country.
Maybe you shouldn’t bother joining us, considering how busy you are.
We’d already be very grateful if you could just introduce us to the right people.”
CEO Cheng politely deflected, then brought up another matter.
“No worries, I’ll accompany you today to take a look around.
I might not have ti in the following few days since I’m going on a trip with a delegation to Europe to discuss cooperation.”
Sun Dongxin wasn’t just talking; he was heading to Europe for a eting, the kind where you travel with a group for business partnerships.
“Europe…
Sun Dongxin, do you have any reliable contacts there, preferably Caucasian Westerners?
MAS has now expanded to Paris, but we have a big problem with the staff there.
We need a dependable local person.
The team is in place, but I don’t have confidence.
I can’t be running to Paris every month.”
When multinational companies open branches, they typically send experienced staff to the target country to establish the new company, but MAS didn’t have seasoned staff, and almost everyone in the Paris team was new.
There’s hardly any difference between a new hire of over two months and one of a week.
Without trustworthy insiders, the state of a branch office is like a mystery box—mutual trust is a big issue.
Although the law protects CEO Cheng’s interests, if he really got cheated, with France’s efficiency, it could be two years before there’s a result, and more troublingly, it could delay MAS’s growth opportunity.
Originally, CEO Cheng wanted to borrow staff from Mi’er, but it was clear she was being kept under her brother’s watchful eye, which was a bit troubling.
Damn Achilles!
So, CEO Cheng turned to Sun Dongxin for help.
Isn’t Sun Dongxin’s person just like one of our own?
“Hmm…
for this, contact Xiao Gu.
He was in charge of the Western Europe market a few years back.
I’ll talk to him about it.”
Both being bosses, Sun Dongxin understood CEO Cheng’s request, and since they had a good relationship, he didn’t try to beg off and quickly agreed to help.
On stage, Zhao Ying was gradually finding her rhythm, looking at the teleprompter in the distance and speaking more and more confidently.
“Over ninety percent of our country’s land belongs to rural areas, every one of our ancestors ca from these areas, the countryside is not sothing distant but seems to have beco so with the passage of ti.
We at Shanhaiguan don’t have vast capabilities, maybe all we can do is take more viewers to witness the changes in the countryside, or even we ourselves can beco the force driving that change.
Therefore, when CEO Cheng proposed the program ‘Farm it out’, I chose to join in.
CEO Cheng trusts a lot and has given a lot of responsibility.
‘Farm it out’ will be produced as a variety show, professionally edited and broadcast every Wednesday during pri ti on Minnan TV station.
Yes, our ‘Farm it out’ will be on television.”
Being on TV actually still has its allure, even in 2023, it sounds a bit nicer than trending on social dia—although the latter has more impact.
CEO Cheng ntioned today there were several opportunities, the influencers thought it was just an empty promise, but they didn’t expect him to an it.
He brought in forty million dollars worth of advertising resources and the TV variety show was about to start production.
At this mont, all the influencers present for the eting felt a surge of excitent.
