Chapter 236 Details Determine Success or Failure and PonyMa Webmaster

The call was from Azhen: "Afan, the last 1,000 boxes of sunglasses gift boxes you sent have been sold out, and now the products are out of stock. I'm starting to get a little anxious. Have your new gift box products arrived?"

The first batch of 5,000 sunglasses gift boxes purchased from Wenzhou Dongfang Liming Glasses Factory were sold out successfully.

Li Xiaofan said happily: "Wow, that's great. Sister Azhen, don't worry, the new gift box products arrived in Hong Kong the day before yesterday and were just cleared for customs yesterday. Now these gift box products are in our logistics warehouse in Changi. I'll call right away. Let Aaron deliver the goods to you!"

After hanging up the phone, Li Xiaofan called Aaron and asked him to help open the company's Luo Li to deliver goods to Azhen.

In early June, Li Xiaofan bought a second-hand Nissan light truck in the name of Singapore Yifan Pte. Ltd. for more than 20,000 Singapore dollars. Half of the cost is because the truck ownership certificate in Singapore is extremely expensive, and it is even more expensive if it is a personal luxury vehicle.

At 2:30 p.m., Luo Zhiwei, manager of the ICT testing division of the Singapore company of American Teradyne Technology Company, and his party visited Singapore Yifan Technology Pte. Ltd. located on the 7th floor of the SME R&D Building.

At the elevator door on the 7th floor, Li Xiaofan, Liu Yanping, Aaron and others received Luo Zhiwei and his party.

Luo Zhiwei smiled and said: "Director Li, we took a walk from the company and it's only a few dozen steps to reach your place. It's really convenient!"

After entering the company gate, Luo Zhiwei stopped at the entrance of Singapore Yifan Company and began to study the four golden bronze plaques hanging on the wall: Yahoo! Asia Representative Office of the United States, Cisco Cis Systems Franchised Agent of the United States, Tokyo TAIYO Electrician Co., Ltd., Singapore after-sales service agent, HP3070 test fixture service partner of HP Inc. in the United States.

Luo Zhiwei asked curiously: "Director Li, what is your relationship with Yahoo? You are actually their company's Asian representative office? Yahoo's search engine is very easy to use. It comes to me almost every day when I work in the company." Search and find relevant information and materials…”

Li Xiaofan smiled and said: "Manager Luo, have you seen it? There are two companies on the background of our company: Singapore Yifan Pte. Ltd. and Singapore Yifan Technology Pte. Ltd. Our Singapore Yifan Pte. Ltd. is an American Yahoo company One of the shareholders, our company is currently helping Yahoo handle some business in Asia, focusing on the Internet advertising business. If your company is interested in publishing advertisements on the Yahoo website, you can contact us and we will give you a very good Discount!"

Luo Zhiwei smiled: "The marketing business is not under the control of our department. Our department is still mainly focused on technology. Like HP's HP3070, we are responsible for the business of Teradyne's GenRad series of ICT test machines in the Asia-Pacific region... …”

"However, I really didn't expect that your company is still a shareholder of Yahoo! This is so surprising!" Luo Zhiwei said.

Li Xiaofan smiled on the side. The four golden bronze medals on the wall at the door were originally used to show off, and they really worked.

When entering the R&D workshop, Luo Zhiwei found that eight technicians wearing white anti-static suits were busy inside. Some were writing test programs on the HP3070 test system, and some were writing PCB circuit diagram files on the computer and compiling them into CNC drilling. Program software, some are making test fixtures...

The leaders are Pan Zhanlong and Gu Qijun, who came here specially from the National University of Singapore. The remaining six are Chinese students at the National University of Singapore whom Pan Zhanlong and Gu Qijun called to help. Their basic majors are all electrical engineering or computer science. Now Li Xiaofan Working part-time at Yifan Technology Company can be regarded as integrating industry, academia and research into work practice.

After the brief inspection, Li Xiaofan took Luo Zhiwei and his party to their small conference room.

Liu Yanping gave everyone coffee, mineral water and fruit plates.

Li Xiaofan smiled and said: "Manager Luo, our company has just started and the environment is relatively simple. Please bear with me! Let's have some drinks first and some fruit..."

"Director Li, you're welcome. Your visit today has given me a deeper understanding of your company. In fact, I'll tell you the truth, although your company is not big, it can do some details better than us!"

Indeed, it is good to have coffee when visiting an ordinary small company, but Singapore Yifan actually prepared a high-end fruit plate, which made Luo Zhiwei feel very welcome.

This is Li Xiaofan's attentiveness. In fact, the fruit doesn't cost much, but it gives the guests a very good feeling. The coffee and coffee tea sets that Liu Yanping purchased were relatively high-end...

These details reflect a company's culture and the taste of its managers.

After the pleasantries, Luo Zhiwei got to the point: "Director Li, I came here today to formally invite your company to become a partner of Teradyne's GenRad series of ICT test machines. I wonder if you are interested?"

After hearing this, Li Xiaofan was pleasantly surprised, but on the surface he remained calm and said with a smile: "Currently, we may focus on cooperating with Hewlett-Packard's HP3070 machine. What are the benefits of becoming your company's partner?" "

"I don't know what kind of preferential conditions HP3070 provides to your company, but Teradyne's preferential policies and support for excellent partners will definitely not be lower than those of HP!"

Li Xiaofan smiled and said, "Would you like to hear the details?"

"Director Li, our two companies are so close. If we reach a cooperation agreement, I can apply to the company to place one of our company's latest GenRad ICT test machines in your R&D workshop for free. We will not charge any fees. Secondly, we will strongly recommend your company to our customers To provide ICT test fixtures and test program software services. The last thing that may be most attractive to your company is that all of our company’s GenRad ICT test machine training courses are open to your company’s employees. Our two companies are so close that you can access them at any time. Come and attend our company’s training courses…”

"Manager Luo, thank you for your kind invitation. We, the partners, will discuss it internally. Can we get back to you tomorrow or the day after tomorrow?"

In fact, Li Xiaofan was quite satisfied with the conditions proposed by Luo Zhiwei. There was no special expression on his face at that time and he continued to maintain a calm smile.

…

In the evening after everyone got off work, Li Xiaofan spent time online.

Recently he discovered a new continent and finally found the Chinese language

S, called CFido.

At that time, a method of connecting through telephone lines was popular among some of the more avant-garde Internet users in China.

The S network is called: CFido. At that time, they connected to the server of a certain site through long-distance dial-up, and then communicated with the outside world through this site. The charging model for accessing the Internet was hourly charging, so at that time many users would use an offline editing tool called Lanbo Express to edit what they wanted to write first and then connect to the Internet to send the letter package. It is said that this could save a lot every month. Call charges.

CFido is not so much a

S network is actually more like an electronic "post office". Each person's post is a letter. The letter is divided into different post office sites for forwarding, and then everyone can view the letter and reply to the letter.

In fact, CFido is not strictly a website, it is a dial-up

S Network, its full name is ChinaFidoNet, its Chinese name is China Huiduo Network, which is the Chinese branch of global FidoNet.

Li Xiaofan just discovered a fourth-tier site called Ponysoft on this CFido.

The webmaster of this Ponysoft fourth-line site is called: PonyMa.

See PonyMa

After the S post, Li Xiaofan burst into ecstasy: Haha, hello, Mr. Ma!
