Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

Chapter 31 Expanding the Team

Early the next morning, Bao Zixuan came to his office, because he had to go back to school tonight. Seeing that he performed well, the school gave him a day and a half vacation. It was already too much. The vast majority of people at MIT do not have this kind of treatment.

Bao Zixuan was very happy to see that the financial staff had completed the tasks assigned to him. He saw that every employee was in a good mood. This was the result he wanted. Hiroshi Hashimoto and Jiro Furujo are even more happy. College technicians like them who have just graduated two years ago are not only transitioning to management positions, but each of them received 100,000 US dollars early in the morning.

In order to reach their current position at RB, they have to work for at least 10 years in a company, and they have to perform particularly well. It takes more than 5 years to earn 100,000 US dollars. It is really important to be with the company. , I must cherish this hard-won opportunity, so that their family can live in the most prosperous area of ​​Tokyo and enjoy the life of the rich.

After the financial staff distributed the bonuses, they came to Bao Zixuan's office to report the total order quantity and amount of the two games yesterday. Bao Zixuan knew that now he had to rely on the connections of large agents to expand the market, and the profits were inevitable. But I didn’t expect American agents to be so optimistic about these two games.

At last count, the first batch of orders totaled 128,000 units, including 56,000 Xiangjiang cubes with a contract value of US$140 million; and 72,000 Pac-Man units with a contract value of US$201.6 million. The total contract value reached 341.6 million U.S. dollars. The purchasing power of 300 million U.S. dollars in this era is quite astonishing. The profits from this batch of orders have already caught up with the annual profits of Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation.

After arranging everyone's tasks, Bao Zixuan met John Howard in the office.

John Howard: "Boss, what do you want from me?" Last night was the happiest night for me in many days. I could finally support my family well. His children can also go to a good school, and after the boss wanted to see him, he told his wife that he must speak appropriately and pay attention to his words and deeds, which taught him a good lesson.

Bao Zixuan: "Hello, John! I hope you will become my bodyguard and recruit more of your former colleagues and comrades-in-arms. My request is very simple. Ability is one aspect. The most important thing is that everyone must have a family. Parents, wives, children. You should understand what I mean. I will give you a high enough salary that you can definitely support your family even if your wife does not work. But I am also responsible for the safety of myself and the company. Hope you can understand."

John Howard: "These are all fine, but boss, how many people do I need to recruit?"

Bao Zixuan: "In principle, the more the better, let's recruit 30 people in the early stage! Because the North American branch is not very big now. But we must ensure that these people have absolute trust in the company and are loyal enough. You need to screen carefully. , the salary can be the standard of an ordinary engineer. You are the salary standard of a department head. I know that you have been a sergeant major and will have the ability in this area."

John Howard: "Okay, no problem. But boss! I need to apply for a fund in advance, which is for the settlement allowance of these people. After all, many people do not live in Cambridge."

Bao Zixuan: "No problem, I'll give you 1 million US dollars, but the premise is that these people's families will also come to live in Cambridge, and their wives will receive a salary to take care of their families. I don't know how to I want you to go to the battlefield, but my business is getting better and better, so some people will inevitably be jealous. Necessary defense and protection are still needed."

John Howard took the money to recruit security guards, while Peng Yifei and Zhang Zhan were protecting Bao Zixuan. And Peng Yifei sometimes works part-time as an assistant.

After everything was arranged, Bao Zixuan dialed Zhao Tingting's phone number.

Although it was already 9 pm Xiangjiang time, Zhao Tingting would probably be working overtime at the company at this time, and she was not disappointed. After Zhao Tingting answered the phone: "Boss, I heard from people in the North American branch that you have won a big victory this time!"

Bao Zixuan: "Yes, I didn't expect the effect to be so good this time! How is the procurement of raw materials!"

Zhao Tingting: "Don't worry, we now have three suppliers, and our company arranges payment in the most timely manner. Now the daily production volume can reach 1,000 units. It will reach 1,500 units by the end of this month."

Bao Zixuan: "In this case, we have not yet developed Europe, and our production capacity is simply not enough. I will immediately contact the ship to transport the first batch of production equipment back to Xiangjiang. In October, we will reach a production scale of 2,000 units per day, and the proportion of components produced by ourselves will be It must be expanded. You order 60,000 game consoles from Taitung Co., Ltd., and 30,000 Xiangjiang cubes and Pac-Man units each. I will talk to them and then ship them directly to the United States. In addition, the expansion of the factory must be accelerated. "

Zhao Tingting: "Okay, boss! We have been completing the plan according to your plan without delay."

Bao Zixuan: "That's good, you will have no shortage of red envelopes by the end of the year." Hahahaha

After finishing the phone call with Zhao Tingting, Bao Zixuan called Michal at RB. It was off duty now, so the call went directly to his home!

Bao Zixuan: "Mihar, my friend, I'm in trouble now, so I came here to ask for your help."

Michal: "Bao, I thought you missed me and wanted to drink with me! I didn't expect you came to me for help. I'm so sad! But what's the matter! As long as I can do it, I will definitely help, who can We are friends!"

Bao Zixuan: "My promotion in the United States has been very successful. I hope you can help me produce some of my products. Send me some goods for your customer share in the early stage."

Michal: "Tell me! How much."

Bao Zixuan: "60,000 units, 30,000 units each of Xiangjiang Cube and Pac-Man."

Michal: "The amount is too big. I need to discuss it with Xiaodao. You will call me in an hour."

When Kojima Yuichi arrived at Michal's house, half an hour had passed. After Michal told Yuichi Kojima what happened, Kojima said it was possible, but the delivery date and the price of each machine would need to be discussed over the phone.

An hour later, Michal's home phone rang. Bao Zixuan: "How is it! My friend!"

Michal: "Xiaojiao and I discussed it and we can do this for you. Who makes us friends! But how to calculate the price. And how long is the delivery period."

Bao Zixuan: "How about we provide motherboards at 1,000 US dollars each, and I require that the quality must be the same as your own products. Although this sentence is redundant, I still have to say it first. It is best to be in 1 Completed within the month.”

Michal did not expect that the price quoted by Bao Zixuan was very kind. In this way, they can earn 200 to 300 US dollars for one machine, and they can also ask other foundries to reduce their prices. Even if they purchase parts in such large quantities, they can save money. A lot of money.

Michal: "Although the price is not very high, I can promise you that we are friends! By the way, the Space Invaders project will be packaged soon. When will you come to RB?"

Bao Zixuan: "It's Christmas! After all, I still have some things to arrange here. When do you plan to go on the market?"

Michal: "If there are no accidents! It should be from February to March next year."

Bao Zixuan: "There will be an electronics exhibition in Los Angeles in March next year, otherwise we will jointly release Space Invaders at this exhibition."

Michal: "Very good suggestion, I will consider it."

After Bao Zixuan chatted with Michal for a few more words, he hung up the phone and asked Zhao Tingting to arrange the division and production of the order.
