Chapter 397 Continue to Burn Money
Bao Zhuoyuan didn't have a good Spring Festival this year. Although he and Feng Yiping, the young and over-the-top boss, hadn't met a few times before and after, they were like old friends. Feng Yiping trusted him very much, and he also trusted Feng Yiping. Feng Yiping was able to lead the magazine to the step he described.
However, two issues of the magazine have been issued, and two issues have been distributed to those target customers. All the expenses add up to more than one million yuan. Although there is some progress, compared with the investment, it is not worth mentioning.
Moreover, Bao Zhuoyuan also knew that the companies that were interested in the magazine were mainly interested in Feng Yiping's serialized blue ocean strategy. If it were not supported by the serialized blue ocean strategy, the results would have been even worse.
When he participated in last year's year-end meeting, he learned about Jiaqiang's situation. A company like the magazine, which has invested a lot, lost money, and has no hope for the time being, has no semicolon except him.
Something has to change, he thought.
So, when Feng Yiping was still sleeping soundly with Huang Jingping in his arms in the morning, he was woken up by the phone call. When he saw that it was Bao Zhuoyuan calling, well, there was no need to sleep.
Huang Jingping hugged him and arched his chest a few times, Feng Yiping patted her butt a few times, "I'm going to answer the phone,"
"Well, I'm going to make breakfast."
Feng Yiping went to the study room and used a fixed line to call Lao Bao. In these days, it costs money to answer calls on mobile phones, and although Hong Kong has returned to the motherland for several years, calls from Hong Kong are considered international long-distance calls, so it’s not that they can’t afford the money. , I can't stand that slaughter.
"Mr. Bao, happy new year!" Feng Yiping said to him in Cantonese.
"Happy New Year," Bao Zhuoyuan said in Mandarin, which was still so difficult to understand. After saying these words, he also switched to Cantonese.
"Yiping, the situation of the second period reported back now is not optimistic. I read the latest financial statements and felt that I was under a lot of pressure. After thinking about it, I still want to increase the intensity of issuance in this port. After all, new magazines like ours are not allowed to sell at reduced prices, and do not accept withdrawals. This condition is a bit harsh, what do you think?"
"Mr. Bao, I understand that you are thinking about me and the magazine. I am very grateful! However, it is too early to tell the situation of the second issue. Many of the magazines that have been sent out have not yet arrived. , There may be some good news in the next few days."
Today is only the thirteenth, and the magazines sent to Europe and the United States must not have been signed for.
"I know, but Yiping, Yiyezhiqiu, judging from the response of local companies, is still not very optimistic, so I think that changes are imperative, and the sooner we change, the less our losses will be."
Huang Jingping handed a cup of hot milk to Feng Yiping, and lip-synced to him, "Drink it while it's hot."
Feng Yiping took her hand and kissed her, "Mr. Bao, I was a little optimistic before, but now, it's not time to make the changes you mentioned. I always firmly believe that, at the latest, when we After the publication of the third issue of the magazine, the situation will definitely change dramatically.
Therefore, I still stick to the current practice, either to make the magazine I want, or not to do it. You know my original intention. I don’t want to be a regional magazine that has no international influence and can only make ends meet. Magazine, if you don't succeed, you will succeed.
I think you have to be prepared that the first three issues of the magazine will burn money. However, you have to think about the benefits. Compared with those Internet companies that are in crisis, we are nothing.
At the same time, I hope that you can convey my meaning clearly to the colleagues in the magazine, and must arouse his confidence and enthusiasm. I personally thank them for their hard work. I hope that everyone will continue to work hard and work hard to prepare the third issue of the magazine. The third issue of the magazine is very important, and I hope that the standard of this issue is also the highest.
I still want to intervene in this issue of the magazine. The focus of this issue is still on the Internet bubble. I conclude that the bubble will burst in the middle of next month. Please use this as the direction to organize a batch of high-level articles. "
When Feng Yiping said these words, his tone was very firm, and Bao Zhuoyuan knew that there was no need to discuss further, "That's fine, I will definitely do the work you explained, and at the same time, I have another suggestion, your blue ocean strategy, isn't it? It may be considered for separate release."
Bao Zhuoyuan was also thinking of him, the future of the magazine is uncertain, but Feng Yiping's monograph will definitely become popular.
However, Feng Yiping just wanted to use these articles to attract target customers for the magazine, how could he give up at this time?
"By the way, Mr. Bao, I would like to trouble you to find some experienced financial professionals. In the first half of the year, I would like to set up another investment company with a focus on global financial investment."
After this round of Internet bubble operations, Feng Yiping wants his own professionals to continue investing in crude oil futures. Crude oil prices will continue to rise sharply this year and hit the highest level in ten years in September. This is a long-term Meticulous work, he doesn't have the energy to keep paying attention.
"Okay, that's no problem," said Bao Zhuoyuan, who had accumulated contacts in the magazine industry for many years, these were trivial matters.
"Are you going to the company today?" On the small dining table in the kitchen, Huang Jingping served Feng Yiping delicious millet porridge.
"The work has been explained, the company can just take a look, but I have to go to school and send magazines to the teachers."
"Then I won't go with you, I'll clean up at home,"
"Okay, I'll take care of you when I come back tonight!"
Huang Jingping gave him a blank look.
When I arrived at the homeroom teacher's office, unfortunately, Gao Heng was still there. Yes, he had just started school and he had a lot of work to report. Let's choose it.
"A new magazine, right?" Teacher Chen took the initiative to take it, "Sit down," and read it on the spot.
"Yiping, do you have any more? Give me one too," Gao Heng said to him with a smile.
"I'm sorry, I didn't bring much. I gave them to the teachers along the way." Feng Yiping shrugged.
Please, I have to spend money for a magazine, okay? After converting it, it can weigh several catties of meat, so why give it to you for nothing!
Teacher Chen concentrated on watching it for about ten minutes, and sighed, "It's refreshing, Yiping, you really didn't consider releasing it alone?"
This is the second time someone brought up this topic to him today, "Mr. Chen, it must be released separately, but not now."
Teacher Chen understood his intentions, "Alright, you're only in the first grade, and it won't be too late to wait until the second grade to publish the book."
"Speaking of this, Teacher Chen, I have another idea I want to discuss with you?"
"you say,"
"I wondered if it would be possible to set up a club similar to crowdfunding. The students would unite to do something, and it would be considered as applying what they have learned." Feng Yiping said, "Can the school approve such a club? As the initiator, I will Can I be the president?"
If you can set up such a club as the president, you can easily find some talents.
Gao Heng's eyes lit up when he heard this, but he rushed ahead of Teacher Chen and said, "The clubs in the school can only be non-profit, and only second-year students can be presidents."
Of course Feng Yiping knew this, otherwise he asked Mr. Chen what he was doing, didn't he just want to see if he could be accommodated?
"Tell me, why do you have such an idea?" Teacher Chen asked him with a smile.
"All the clubs in the school are actually preparing for us to enter the society and participate in the work in the future, so why not do something directly? We in the Department of Economics and Management are learning to invest, just like doing experiments in the Department of Chemistry. The same, in fact, it is also very necessary!
And I think that now we talk too much and do too little, and we may inevitably be arrogant in the future, so even if we jointly open a restaurant now, we always do something practical, which is also a test of our own ability and knowledge. In turn, it will also promote our learning and discover our own shortcomings, so as to strengthen them in a targeted manner. "
"Well," Teacher Chen nodded slightly, "How about this, you follow the procedure first, and leave the work to be done to me, and I will take the materials and ask."
"Thank you, Teacher Chen!"
After Feng Yiping left, Gao Heng hurriedly finished the report. He felt that Feng Yiping's idea was very novel and highly operable, so he was eager to try it.
When I got home in the evening, there was a pleasant surprise. As soon as I entered the door, Huang Jingping announced the good news, "I found my suitcase. The airport notified me to pick it up in the afternoon. There are a lot of things, but," she walked over dragging the suitcase , "The tie rod was broken and the wheel was broken. They compensated me with a box worth tens of dollars."
Well, with the piss of airports and airlines, it's nice to be able to do this.
