Chapter 649: Guest on CCTV

  Chapter 649 Visiting CCTV

  By the Yuyuantan Lake, a black Rolls-Royce Phantom slowly stopped.

  Zhang Chenguang walked out of the driver's seat, trot to open the rear door and cover the roof, Xia Jingxing in a suit and shoes walked out of the car.

   Liu Xiaoduo, as the secretary, sat in the co-pilot. At this moment, she pushed the car door and walked down, standing behind the boss.

   Xia Jing sorted out his suit and looked up at the 136-meter-high color TV center that stood in front of him.

  This was also one of the top ten famous buildings in Beijing in the 1980s, but now it seems to be a bit depressed. The 24-floor office cannot accommodate and meet the increasing staff and office needs of CCTV.

  The big pants have just started two years ago, and the completion will have to wait for several years.

  So, the headquarters of CCTV is still in the old building in Haidian.

  Xia Jingxing came here, of course not to see the female anchor.

  The national audition for "Win in China" has ended. 3000 entrepreneurs were selected from 20 city competition areas, and then through layers of selection, they finally competed in the top 108.

  The top 108 came to the Beijing training camp, and after another fight, the top 36 were selected.

   Next, the top 36 will advance to the top 12. The match scene will also be placed in the CCTV No. 1 studio, and CCTV 2 will be broadcast live to the national audience.

  Before this, Andrew had always replaced Envision Capital as the judge of the competition.

  Now that the competition has reached a climax, Xia Jingxing also needs to show his face in front of the national audience in accordance with the agreement with the competition organizer to add luster to the competition.

   Accompanied by Zhang Chenguang and Liu Xiaoduo, Xia Jingxing walked towards the building.

  Simple registration and inspection, CCTV staff enthusiastically took Xia Jingxing and his party to the elevator to the floor where the studio was located.

  The program hasn't started yet, the staff took Xia Jingxing and his party to the lounge.

  As soon as he entered the house, Xia Jingxing saw three old acquaintances.

   "Mr. Xia!"

   "Daren!"

  Bearded Wu Ying and Ma Yun greeted Xia Jingxing enthusiastically.

  Only Xiong Xiaoge was a little embarrassed, and he reluctantly nodded to Xia Jingxing, which was a bit of effort to maintain face.

  Xia Jingxing walked over with a smile, and sat down next to the three of them. Behind him, Liu Xiaoduo and Zhang Chenguang walked to the other side, where the secretary and driver of Xiong, Ma, and Wu sat.

  Li Tianjin saw Zhang Chenguang and beckoned to the latter excitedly.

  Some time ago, Jack Ma suggested that the two had a battle against each other, and they had each other's victory and defeat. At the same time, they also made friends.

  Of course, if it is not for restricting the rules of the game and not allowing attacks on vital parts, Li Tianjin will definitely not be able to defeat Zhang Chenguang, who is a master of the military.

  Xia Jingxing chatted casually with Ma Yun and Wu Ying, but Xiong Xiaoge didn't talk very much. He only replied that when he asked him.

Ma Yun and Wu Ying both knew about the grievances between Xiong Xiaoge and Xia Jingxing, but today they can only pretend that they don’t know anything. They will talk to Xia Jingxing for a while, and Xiong Xiaoge for a while. They are not cold on either side, and they are extremely high. Emotional intelligence and social skills.

   Fortunately, the game started soon, and the four of them finally stopped talking, went through a gate and walked into the studio.

  The stage seats in the studio are already full of people. Everyone is dressed in suits and leather shoes, dressed as a contemporary elite.

  Xia Jingxing, Jack Ma and others sat down in the judges' bench, and the host Wang Lifen began to announce the rules and procedures of the competition.

  36 players, divided into 9 groups to participate in the elimination rounds, with a total of 4 players in each elimination round. Among them, 1 person is selected to directly advance to the top 12, 1 person participates in the resurrection match, and the other 2 are directly eliminated.

  Following the BGM of Tu Dajia, the four contestants began to take the stage one by one, standing facing the judges' bench. Everyone had a small podium with microphones on them.

  "Hello everyone, I am Wu Zhixiang, the number one player. The competition is cruel, and entrepreneurship is more difficult. However, what I want to say is, enjoy the competition, enjoy the entrepreneurship, thank you!"

  The first person to come to the stage was a 30-year-old man with glasses and a round face with a bald head. He smiled and greeted the audience and judges as soon as he came on stage.

  Xia Jingxing noticed that there is a VCR on the LED electronic screen next to him introducing the entrepreneur. He is an 80-person CEO of an Internet company.

  The second person to take the stage is a deputy general manager of a real estate company, 29 years old, named Zhou Yunnan.

  The third person on stage is Xu Hongfeng, 34 years old, master of medicine, sales representative of a pharmaceutical company.

  The fourth player is Pu Bin. He is 28 years old. He has a master's degree from the University of New South Wales. He started his own business at the university and currently runs a website.

  The four contestants all took the stage and introduced themselves. After the announcement of the competition, they started to introduce their business plans in two minutes in accordance with the rules of the competition.

  "My project is "Tongcheng Travel Network". My goal is to make the company the largest travel supermarket in China and even the world, so that all tourists and travel suppliers can directly communicate and trade on this platform...

40,000 travel companies have settled on our platform, of which 4,000 are our corporate paying members. In 2004, our revenue was 300,000, and our revenue in 2005 was 3 million. The revenue target for this year is 10 million, which has been completed. Half, if there is venture capital intervention, our 2008 revenue goal is to achieve 100 million..."

  The data of No. 1 player Wu Zhixiang is very detailed, and his speech is very clear.

  Xia Jingxing nodded secretly, unexpectedly the first player in the first game was a big fish.

  Ma Yun stretched his head to Xia Jingxing’s ear, and whispered: “How about? This is the talent cultivated by our Ari. If you have the opportunity, you can support it, your own person!”

  Xia Jingxing smiled and gave Ma Yun a wink.

  "Are you making a profit? Or continue to burn money every month?" Xiong Xiaoge was the first to ask, and he started interviewing entrepreneurs.

  "We have been profitable since the first day of establishment."

  Xiong Xiaoge chuckled, "Then why do you want venture capital?"

  "First, we can get a sum of money; second, we can get a better management method and this kind of structure." Wu Zhixiang replied a little anxiously, and some words were inconsistent.

  "Have you ever done it in Alibaba?" Xia Jingxing interjected.

  Wu Zhixiang looked at Ma Yun, smiled and said, “Thank you very much, Mr. Ma, for driving me out of Alibaba four years ago.”

  The audience applauded and laughed loudly. Jack Ma also snickered his chin. This little brother gave him a lot of face.

  Ma Yun asked: "How do you pass on the values ​​to all employees like Ali Baba?"

  "I think we have been in business for the past three years. One very important point is that when we started with only four people, we established a very good trust mechanism.

  Each of us will post our work experience on the intranet every day. It is very simple, but we insist on doing it every day. "

Xia Jingxing squeezed his chin and thought. It is worthy of being a big company. It feels quite nonsense to build an intranet when there are four people. But in fact, I did it. Knowing what each partner does every day can actually reduce a lot. Unnecessary questions.

  When he started a business in his previous life, he encountered problems of mutual misunderstanding and distrust with his partners. Some people always felt that they did more, others did less, or did nothing.

  If things go on like this, the team will definitely have a big problem.

"Do you think, now, how large are you in this market? In addition, what is the biggest challenge you are facing now? Who are your competitors?" Xiong Xiaoge glanced at the manuscript on the table and continued to ask routinely. .

  "In the B2B market, we are already number one. We currently want to enter the B2C market. The biggest competitors in this market are Ctrip and eLong."

  Wu Ying looked serious, and said in a mixture of Chinese and English: "CTRIP is already China's largest travel service company. Why do you compete with it?"

  "I just said that we already have the largest group of tourism sellers in China. What we need to do is to open the door of this market, and then let all ordinary tourists who are interested in tourism come in and make purchases on this platform.

  My profit model is to collect booth fees and transaction fees from travel suppliers. The business model for ordinary tourists has not been planned for the time being, but I believe there must be a good business model, thank you! "

  Xia Jingxing chuckled. Strictly speaking, this contestant answered the question somewhat evasively, and did not mention the advantages of Tongcheng in front of Ctrip, or commercial barriers.

   However, Ma Yun said that he was already a human, so let him go for the time being.

  The second contestant Zhou Yunnan began to introduce his business plan.

  He intends to develop a handheld computer called "Wenyutong" to solve the hearing and hearing barriers of deaf-mute people, which can complete the mutual conversion of text and speech.

  The development principle is to use the cutting-edge technology of handwriting recognition, speech synthesis, speech recognition and PDA to integrate software and hardware systems.

  Using scenes, normal people’s speech can be converted into text and displayed to the deaf-mute; the deaf-mute writes the text on a handheld computer and turns it into a voice to tell the normal person.

  Build an information platform for convenient communication between normal people and deaf-mute people.

  Zhou Yunnan also emphasized that through investigations and online searches, he found that they are the first domestic product to solve the hearing and hearing barriers of deaf-mute people and have independent intellectual property rights.

  This made Xia Jingxing a lot of interest. Without interrupting his speech, he continued to listen to the player's introduction.
