Chapter 493 Learning English is very important

A group of people came to the door vigorously, which shocked Wang Tao and the others.

They are also fresh graduates. Ma Pingshan and his group obviously have more social experience. They are no different from old fried dough sticks. Their gestures show a kind of maturity.

Confidence radiates from the inside out.

There is 20 million cash on the books, this is confidence.

Wang Tao has ambitions in his chest, but he is poor. He has just graduated from the University of Hong Kong, and he doesn't have a satisfactory assistant. The few people under him are all laymen, and they have never even touched an airplane model before.

If you want money but no money, no one you want, and you have to explore the technology slowly by yourself.

This initial stage is too difficult.

Unexpectedly, a colleague came to the door.

It's no different from sending charcoal in the snow.

The two hit it off.

Zhou Buqi said that he is willing to take a 15% stake. Among them, 10% will be given to Wang Tao himself, and the remaining 5% will be reserved to attract more people, such as those in Ma Pingshan's team who have not graduated. If they are willing to come after graduation, they can be properly distributed.

Wang Tao fought hard, saying that when he started his business, he promised to share 30% of the shares with his friends. Now that the two companies are merging, it's not good to give them any shares, right?

Ma Pingshan immediately refused.

Maomao can't, give me a fart?

He felt somewhat resentful.

Boss Zhou paid out of his own pocket to take out 15% of the 70% shares held by Ziweixing.

But giving 10% of the shares to Wang Tao is a bit too much.

Ma Pingshan personally holds 20% of the shares, but the most of his friends only got 3%. Now an outsider comes and takes 10%, isn't it too much?

Bajixing has 20 million on the book, and 10% of the shares are equivalent to 2 million.

As for Wang Tao's laymen, it was even more ridiculous.

I feel that a random college student from Beihang University is better than them.

Zhou Buqi educated Ma Pingshan on criticism, but he recognized his views.

Wang Tao's subordinates are really not worth training.

In his previous life, Wang Tao taught them step by step, even demonstrating how to install a screw and how far to screw it. As a result, after they finished their studies, they all left the company one by one and went out to fly solo. They all created drone companies to compete with their old employers.

One of the reasons is that Wang Tao wants to make world-class products.

After you have money, you will invest in research and development.

This made the others tremble with fear, feeling that the boss had lost his mind by burning money, and would kill the company, so he had to leave quickly and work alone. Unexpectedly, Wang Tao really made it later, and the research and development achieved amazing results, leading the company to become the number one in the world.

It can be seen that Wang Tao's subordinates failed in loyalty, gratitude, and strategic vision.

After talking for three hours, this matter was basically implemented.

Bajixing acquired DJI.

After the merger, Ma Pingshan will be the chairman and Wang Tao will be the CEO.

This is a weekly decision.

Ma Pingshan's face turned black immediately, including the people under him, who were also stunned and couldn't believe it. Even Wang Tao himself did not expect such a result.

Zhou Buqi sighed, "Wang Tao, you have also seen that everyone is not convinced by you as CEO."

Wang Tao couldn't hide his embarrassment.

Zhou Buqi said: "So, you, the CEO, are just an agent. I will arrange a task for you, and when the task is completed, you will become a regular CEO. If the task fails, you will hand over the power."

"What mission?"

"It's a bit difficult. Anyway, when I handed it over to Ma Pingshan, he didn't finish it."

"ah?"

Ma Pingshan was taken aback.

He didn't complete so many tasks assigned to him by Boss Zhou that he didn't even know what the task was.

Zhou Buqi said: "If you want to make world-class products, you alone are not enough. You must have more professional people to guide and lead you. In terms of products and markets, I have confidence in you, but in terms of technology , you are not enough."

Wang Tao asked, "What should I do?"

Zhou Buqi said: "I told Ma Pingshan at the beginning, to establish good relations with the professors in the school who are proficient in technology, and draw them out to start a business together. In the end, he didn't bring anyone in, they were all student soldiers."

Ma Pingshan was very helpless, "I can't help it. I've said all the good things. If people don't come, what can I do? The world is blank in the direction of civil drone aerial photography. There are too many places to challenge. Aircraft, The camera system, camera equipment, each has a technical threshold. The old professors have a staff and status in the school, a stable job and a source of income, who is willing to take the risk?"

Zhou Buqi ignored him and looked at Wang Tao, "Are you okay?"

Wang Tao blushed, "Our school is not a school like Beihang University that specializes in aerospace, and there are very few teachers and professors in this direction. I think... the most I can do is ask my postgraduate supervisor, and ask him if he would like to come out."

Zhou Buqi was very satisfied, and said with a smile: "That's enough! Convince your mentor and let him bring all the disciples here, and you will be the official CEO!"

The reason why DJI was able to make a breakthrough in research and development is that Wang Tao’s postgraduate tutor brought his disciples to defect together, and this has the greatest technical guarantee.

Afterwards, Zhou Buqi continued to guide the laymen, and set a goal for Bajixing: to be a world-leading drone aerial camera.

The strategic direction is to make multi-rotor drones first, develop an independent and stable camera system, and improve all elements needed for drones such as software, propellers, brackets, gimbals, and remote controls.

As for the camera, that's out of the question.

The whole world is under the control of Japan.

Aerial photography is a drone that takes a camera to the sky to shoot. This requires the camera to be light in size and able to shoot high-definition video. At the moment in 2006, it was barely possible, but there were too many shortcomings, such as the poor experience of ultra-wide-angle and ultra-telephoto.

The technological breakthrough was in 2008, when Canon launched 5DMark2, which was able to shoot high-definition video for a short period of time. The American sports camera GoPro improved and launched a portable high-definition sports camera in 2009.

Then, the drone can be equipped with a motion camera to shoot high-definition video. DJI also launched its first aerial drone in 2010.

But it can only take short high-definition videos.

In 2012, Canon broke through technology again, and 5DMark3 appeared, which can shoot long-term high-definition videos. Major manufacturers followed up one after another, and this led to the explosion of the drone consumer market.

A 5DMark3 digital SLR is only tens of thousands of dollars, and ordinary people can afford it, which has given birth to another industry - self-media.

In the past, when doing shows, a set of high-definition recording equipment cost more than 5 million yuan.

So media people can only rely on the TV station, and they can't afford it at all. They have to work hard to conceive and plan, and then get approval from the radio station leader. Since then, it is no longer necessary. Media people can do it themselves if they buy a 5DMark3.

The Internet has officially replaced TV stations and has become the most important content dissemination channel in the new era.

...

Zhou Buqi also felt guilty.

After talking about a big frame, it was withdrawn.

The stage has already been set up by him, and we will see how Ma Pingshan and Wang Tao sing this play well in the future. He didn't have the time, nor the ability to take care of it.

Ziweixing's mess was enough to give him a headache.

Back at the hotel at night, Guo Pengfei, Meng Houkun and others complained that they only blamed themselves for not learning English well enough.

Huawei is learning management from IBM, with a group of American experts sitting in charge.

Where there are Americans, all speak English to show respect for the teacher. Huawei's executives are used to it, but these recruits from Ziweixing are all dumbfounded.

For example, Zhang Yiming is still learning English by himself every day, but there are still problems in real communication.

Only He Yang and Ji Zian can communicate with foreigners smoothly.

This attracted Zhou Buqi's attention.

He called He Yang to his office and talked about English.

Unity was quickly reached.

It is imminent to learn English well.

People of the older generation can travel around the world without knowing English. That is because the environment back then was quite special. Now it is a global village, and international docking is becoming more and more frequent.

Especially for ambitious international companies, English is an essential skill for executives and technical experts. Can't speak English, it's hard to move an inch.

Many advanced management experience materials, world-class publications and cutting-edge IT technical articles are all in English. It is filled with a large amount of professional vocabulary, and even a specialist can't translate it.

Even if it is translated, errors may occur due to knowledge blind spots.

This requires them to have to read on their own.

Not to mention the communication and negotiation with foreigners during the business process.

Ning Yaxian has already told the story. The language barrier in the Japanese company once caused absurd and absurd management differences, and the company's efficiency was extremely low.

"Ya Xian, go open a bottle of red wine."

After sending He Yang away, Zhou Buqi gave Ning Yaxian instructions, then took out his mobile phone and called Yu Minhong.

"Xiao Zhou?"

"Old Yu, can I introduce you to a business?"

"Is there such a good thing?"

"Must, big business!"

"Tell me."

Zhou Buqi said with a smile: "I want to learn English, and I will also train all the executives. Do you have any good teachers? Arrange some to come over?"

"Do you want to lead the people in the company to learn English?"

Yu Minhong was slightly taken aback, this is a rare occurrence. He founded New Oriental for ten years, and he has never met him before, so he taught college students and high school students.

Zhou Buqi said: "Yes, important employees have to learn. I think, every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday from 9:00 to 11:00 p.m., how about sending a teacher to teach us?"

"What type of English are you going to learn?"

"Those who can communicate with Americans don't take exams, and don't come to exam skills. Don't tell jokes, we are not middle school students. We need to be dry and have oral expression."

"Then you have to find a foreign teacher."

"You help me arrange it."

Yu Minhong was a little speechless about this kid's aggressiveness, but he needed to help, so he said with a headache: "Okay, I'll get in touch with you later."
