Chapter 284 Reputation

Reputation is an interesting thing, it can’t be touched, but it can be seen.

When public opinion reversed, but the official media spoke out, Fang Zhuo walked into the 23rd floor of Hang Lung as if he was floating in the eyes of the employees, and everyone’s eager mood was all on their faces.

Fang Zhuo handled company affairs for two days in such an environment, and watched the market enthusiasm also reflected in the rising shipments.

Although there have been honors of all sizes in the past two years, such as Lin'an's advanced unit, Luzhou's advanced unit, Zhejiang Province's informationization commendation, and even national-level Internet industry honors, this uncrowned stamp is still the most direct one.

After all, Guahao.com has no effective way to convert funds, that is, to get loans from banks and exchange ideas with venture capital, and nothing else.

Now, there are still no competitors in the country. The music player is actually on the market, and every sale is a profit conversion.

However, compared with foreign countries, iMusic has not made much progress in terms of software. Domestic users have no demand for music format conversion at all, and not many people use it. However, there is a clear differentiation in the sales of M1 and J1.

Price is the biggest factor affecting domestic product sales.

On May 7, even Fang Zhuo, who is mentally strong, was a little uncomfortable with everyone's unfading enthusiasm. He contacted Hu Meng of CCTV Finance and planned to record the final program.

By the way, he made a mild request to Sina.

Just when Fang Zhuo flew to Beijing, he issued an order to Yike Investment, a subsidiary of his company, to absorb another 2.5% of shares from the US stock market. This, together with the 3% originally purchased from Duan Yongji, will reach the 5% shareholding line.

Yike Investment will formally notify Sina of its shareholding action in accordance with the regulations of the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

However, the company will not make a request for a seat on the board of directors. This will be communicated by Fang Zhuo in person in Beijing, otherwise it will most likely become a formality.

On the afternoon of the 7th, Fang Zhuo did not see Sina's Wang Yan at the show. He learned from the producer that the other party had changed the recording schedule because of company matters.

He could only patiently record for an afternoon.

The audience, contestants, guests, and judges at the scene also gave Yi Ke unusual respect because of his performance in public opinion.

When Fang Zhuo opened his mouth, the whole audience was silent, and the camera lens was snapping at his face.

He remained calm and did not feel stage fright.

However, some obviously unremarkable opinions received particularly warm applause, which really made the humble Fang Zhuo feel awkward.

In the evening, Fang Zhuo was left behind again to record a separate shot.

After Fang Zhuo sat down and faced the camera, he did not hear the topic requirement: "What do you want me to say?"

Hu Meng smiled and said: "Just say it."

It was not a proposition, but an open interview.

Fang Zhuo frowned, pondered for a few seconds, and slowly said: "Our program is "Win in China", which is a competition of contestants' judgment on projects and markets, and their personal qualities and team coordination."

He relaxed his brows and continued: "But in fact, starting a business is a very painful process."

"Your investors will question you."

"Your family will not understand you."

"Your team will shake you."

"Your colleagues are thinking of quitting."

"Your product has defects."

"Your market feedback is not as expected."

Fang Zhuo threw out a question: "Then what are you going to do? What can you do?"

He did not ask himself, but smiled faintly: "If you don't experience these, you may feel lucky, but I won't congratulate you."

"Because you don't feel these pains, the calmness on the road to entrepreneurship will destroy you one day in the future."

"Starting a business requires caution. If you really want to start a business, I hope that failures will defeat you, not knock you down."

Fang Zhuo nodded to the camera, keeping his eyes straight and his expression sincere.

After a while, he couldn't help but cough: "Sister Hu? Sister Hu? Can we end it?"

Hu Meng woke up from a dream: "Ah, OK, end it, end it."

Fang Zhuo smiled and said: "My expression is almost frozen, are you distracted?"

"No, you said it very well." Hu Meng said sincerely, "Mr. Fang, did you prepare the manuscript in advance?"

"No, you just pulled me here at the last minute. Speaking of which, next time you encounter this kind of thing, you should tell me in advance, and you have to prepare the manuscript for me." Fang Zhuo spread his hands.

Hu Meng recalled what he said just now again, and said sincerely: "You said it very well, how can you say it so well?"

"It's just what I think." Fang Zhuo smiled.

Hu Meng thought about the words "investor doubts", "team wavering", "colleagues' intention to quit", and then thought about the entrepreneurial history of the person in front of him, and praised: "It's very good."

Three praises, the more concise they are.

Fang Zhuo stood up: "Okay, Sister Hu, stop praising me. I've been flying high these days."

Hu Meng laughed and roughly guessed what happened to Mr. Fang.

She was also shocked to see the official media speak out one after another, wondering what kind of background Mr. Fang had.

Fang Zhuo and Hu Meng chatted for a while, and inadvertently asked about Wang Yan's schedule. He learned that he called the program and would come to record tomorrow.

He breathed a sigh of relief and planned to go back tonight to think about how to speak more smoothly.

After the president of Yike left CCTV, Hu Meng repeatedly watched the interview footage and felt that this kind of encouragement was very cool and had a special charm.

She thought about it again and again, and went directly to the leader, suggesting that this interview be used as the opening or ending of the promotional film in the second half of the program "Win in China".

The leader was busy with many things and did not match the person in the interview, but after a small reminder from Hu Meng, he felt that such an arrangement was appropriate and in line with the spirit of the program.

After some arrangements, the guest judges from Yike Investment in "Win in China" had more space to speak to the majority of entrepreneurs.

Hu Meng believed that many entrepreneurs would be inspired by such words, because in a sense, this is a portrayal of Fang Zhuo himself.

There were two questions in the interview, and the person concerned did not give an answer.

——What are you going to do? What can you do?

However, Fang Zhuo gave his own answer with his entrepreneurial experience.

What should I do? I have to persist.

What can I do? I can only persist.

That is why the combination of words and practice is the most touching. People not only say that, but also do that.

Hu Meng finished everything very late, but she did not forget to call Fang Zhuo and inform him of this matter. Friends should keep in touch and communicate more.

"How is it, Mr. Fang, do you agree?"

Fang Zhuo just smiled on the phone: "I have recorded it. Agree, don't blame me for scaring off the contestants."

"Not only for the contestants, but also for the wider entrepreneurial community." Hu Meng said, "Our program is also a guide."

Fang Zhuo smiled and said, "Okay, bye."

Hu Meng: "Hmm?"

"It's pretty good."

I came back too late yesterday. Fortunately, today is the weekend. I will take my driver's license to cancel some points for my friend. There are still two or three chapters in the evening.
