In fact, Fang zhe doesn''t understand why Lei always planned to hold the Xiaomi preparatory meeting. In his previous life, the preparatory meeting was held in January 2010. Now, due to Fang Zhe''s intervention, the preparatory meeting was held more than half a year in advance. I don''t know. The participants also have their own, but I don''t know if other Xiaomi co founders will change as a result?
At 3:00 p.m., Fang zhe rushed from the airport to Xuande Hall of Wudaokou Zhulu teahouse. At this time, more than 10 entrepreneurial veterans of Xiaomi, including Lei Zong and other previous generations, basically arrived.
Fang zhe just walked into the private room. President Lei stood up and introduced Fang Zhe''s identity:
"This new little brother is an old friend of mine. Fang zhe just graduated from college two days ago. Although he is young, his achievements are not small. He also has another identity. He is the founder of Huizhong company. I think everyone should have heard of it!"
Everyone here looked up at Fang zhe curiously. Many of them have indeed heard of the name of Huizhong company, and some have heard of the young CEO of Huizhong. They just didn''t expect to see the Lord today.
Fang Zhe''s youth surprised everyone present, but among the people present, except Fang Zhe, the youngest is 31 years old. Everyone is a top talent in their own industry. Therefore, even if they know Fang Zhe''s identity, no one shows an expression of gaffe.
Fang zhe looked around for a week. He had some impressions of several of them. These people were the bosses who had seen photos online in his previous life and belonged to the backbone and elders of Xiaomi''s entrepreneurship.
General manager Lei arranged Fang Zhe to sit next to Lin Xiaobin. On the left is Hong Feng, the person in charge of Xiaomi MIUI in previous generations.
After Fang zhe sat down, President Lei began to introduce Fang Zhe to the others present.
"If you know Xiaobin, I won''t introduce you. Let''s start with the one next to you!" President Lei stood up and said, looking at the Hong Feng on Fang Zhe''s left:
"This is Hong Feng. He works in Google China like Xiaobin. He is his partner."
After Mr. Lei''s introduction, Fang zhe filled Hong Feng''s more detailed resume: "graduated from Jianghai Jiaotong University, master of Purdue University, worked at Oracle and Google successively, and is also the person in charge of MIUI in the future!"
Before Fang zhe thought about it, President Lei began to introduce the man on the left of Hongfeng. Fang zhe seemed to know him very well, but he couldn''t match his name:
"His name is Li Qiang. He is my old subordinate in Jinshan. He has been in charge of Jinshan Ciba before."
Fang zhe continued: "this is the future marketing director of Xiaomi. Marketing models such as xiaomi.com and hunger marketing can be said to be the representative works of this guy!"
President Lei continued to introduce later: "next to me is Dr. Zhou Guangping, former director of Motorola Yanjing R & D center."
Fang zhe looks at Zhou Guangping. He is nearly 50 years old and should be the oldest one here. However, his contribution to Xiaomi in the future can not be ignored. Frankly, Xiaomi can''t do a mobile phone without him!
Motorola, as one of the first mobile phone manufacturers in the world, is almost equivalent to the "Huangpu Military Academy" in the mobile phone industry. Most of the backbone technical talents of mobile phone manufacturers who later rose are basically born here.
However, although Dr. Zhou has good technology, after Xiaomi became bigger, he gradually dropped the first level of management echelon due to poor supply chain management. Until Xiaomi went public, he withdrew from Xiaomi company sadly, which can be described as good luck!
"This is Huang Jiangji, R & D director of Microsoft China Academy of engineering!"
"This is Liu De, director of the Department of industrial design of Yanjing University of science and technology."
...
Mr. Lei continued to introduce later. Fang zhe also filled in the details of these people one by one. Needless to say, everyone is the top winner in the industry. This lineup can be called luxury in the Internet entrepreneurship circle now and even in the next few years!
When President Lei continued to introduce himself later, Fang Zhe''s doubts popped up again. Why did President Lei invite himself to the party?
As like as two peas, Sun Peng and his 12 people were not counted on the scene, and the team was not exactly the same as the previous generation''s business team. Fang zhe did not understand that this was the deliberate arrangement of the heavens or the fate was so magical that the difference between the six months was that the only thing that would happen to those people was the one who made a venture. He is the reborn!
Fang zhe actually guessed some reasons. In recent months, the telephone contact between Lei and Fang zhe has been extremely frequent. Moreover, in most cases, Lei always takes the initiative to call Fang Zhe.
The content of the two people''s chat naturally revolves around the mobile phone and mobile Internet. As a result, the two people talk more and more and speculate. President Lei''s evaluation of Fang Zhe is getting higher and higher. In his original words to Fang zhe on a phone: "Fang Zhe, if I didn''t believe in science, I really thought you were a demon! I can''t say your future achievements are more than two horses and one Li, but it must be better than me!"
Mr. Lei said he was an old fool, referring to his most energetic 20 years of youth. He didn''t step on the broadest road of the Internet, but worked hard to lead Jinshan forward like an old cow. Now he is back out of the mountain. His character is a lot free and easy!
Mr. Lei has also nagged several times. If Fang zhe hadn''t opened his own company, he would surely pull him into his company as a partner. If Huizhong didn''t send him a little money, he would be willing to invest no matter what Fang zhe did!
Therefore, when Fang zhe wants to come, President Lei asked himself to attend such a private preparatory meeting today, there must be a deeper reason related to the future development of Xiaomi!
Without waiting for Fang Zhe to think about it, President Lei introduced everyone, chatted casually, and went straight to the topic:
"I gathered so many of our friends together today. Everyone must have guessed what I want. To tell you the truth, I really didn''t mean to say it if we weren''t in the private room!"
Although President Lei spoke Xiantao Mandarin, everyone present listened carefully.
"At my age, I shouldn''t have thought about tossing around. It''s also good to be an angel investor. In the past two years, I have invested in more than a dozen companies, and their development is good, but no matter how much I invest, it''s someone else''s company. I''ve also resigned from Jinshan. I''m unlikely to go back in a short time, and I don''t want to go back.
When I was idle for two years, I also wanted to be idle for two years. Until the beginning of the year, Fang zhe mentioned the mobile phone to me, and the little fire in my heart ran up. At that time, I knew that I was born to toss my life and couldn''t stand idling days! "
After finishing his opening remarks, President Lei paused, looked around for a week and said:
"I called you here today just to ask you if you are interested in making mobile phones and opening a mobile phone company with me!"
