Chapter 96: Try your luck? Try your luck!
Chapter 96: Try your luck? Try your luck!
I am worried because I don’t have any projects.
It’s even more worrying to have projects.
The settlement of accounts is really a torture.
After Chen Chen summarized the three projects, he called the financial director Mo Fei, and the two of them started counting beads on an abacus in the office.
"Little Boss, this is the rough estimate."
After a busy morning, Murphy submitted a preliminary figure.
Chen Chen shook his head.
"At this number, the doll can spit in my face. She doesn't even have to do it. I want to spit in my own face."
Hear the boss's reply.
Murphy adjusted his round-frame glasses, feeling very embarrassed.
It is indeed a bit too much to ask.
Three projects at one time, one of which is a completely independent innovative project.
Let’s not talk about the twists and turns we encountered along the way.
Even if it goes smoothly, the cost overruns are serious.
Murphy felt that she couldn't do this job: "Boss, I really tried my best."
"Try harder. If you don't push yourself, how will you know where your limit is?"
"This is my limit. I really can't calculate it."
Chen Chen pretended to be pitiful: "Sister Mo, you are the financial director, your major is accounting, and numbers are your strong point. Without you, I really don't know who to rely on."
"Boss, you misunderstood. Our job as accountants is to take the blame, not to settle accounts. You might as well send this account directly to me in Tilanqiao."
"Where is it?"
Chen Chen took the information and sat next to Mo Fei.
"Let's discuss this together."
Murphy looked at Chen Chen with a painful look.
Chen Chen checked the areas that needed heavy investment one by one.
"It does cost money in the early stages of the aerospace industry, but we can offset it with the profits later on."
"Really? What's the expected return time?"
Chen Chen spread his hands: "How would I know?"
The engine will certainly produce long-term benefits.
However, Chen Chen was not sure about the scale and time of the benefits.
"You can write whatever you want. It's just a budget, not a serious financial report."
Murphy posted a nine-figure expense tally.
Chen Chen was not satisfied: "Be bolder."
So Murphy doubled it again.
"There's no need for a high-speed transport drone to be stealthy, so just cut out some of it."
Murphy was a little puzzled: "But your aircraft is designed with stealth layout."
She has been working at Chendun for a while and knows a little about airplanes.
But it’s this kind of flat shape.
There is some black technology involved.
If the stealth layout has been designed but no stealth coating is applied, wouldn’t that be a waste of time?
Chen Chen waved his hand: "Let's count it as non-invisible for now. If they want it, they have to pay more."
"Boss, you are so cunning...you should be thrifty and manage your household well." Murphy almost told the truth.
It turned out that she only knew that the young boss was good at squandering money.
But I didn’t expect that Chen Chen was also good at managing the household.
Removing the stealth part can reduce the current budget.
But when Wei Xiao saw the plan.
She will definitely ask why we have all the layout in place but don't use invisibility?
This money was not something they asked for, it was given by Wei Xiao.
Say something.
The young boss has figured out the car company's paid unlocking system.
Want rear-wheel steering?
4988!
Want heated seats?
2400!
Want OTA upgrade?
14100!
Anyway, we have the function, it’s completely up to you whether to buy it or not.
If those who sell cars can make DLCs, why can't we who sell airplanes?
Murphy was also a smart person, and he immediately drew inferences from his experience: "Then should the function of this folding wing be considered as non-foldable?"
"You're so smart! Give yourself a chicken drumstick after get off work."
Chen Chen and Mo Fei went over it together and reduced the cost by 30%.
But the numbers are still impressive.
"With this number...she shouldn't be able to spit at me. At most, she can look through my family tree and scold each one of them."
"Don't be fooled by her appearance as a goddess of tiger pounce, it's embarrassing to curse at her."
"Cruel and vicious."
Murphy felt that he had reached his limit: "Let's give it a try. Getting scolded won't be a big deal."
Chen Chen pouted: "Hammer, even if I get scolded, I still have to get the project. I don't think this number is enough for them to accept."
Shunfeng is wealthy.
But everything has a limit.
The current figure is equivalent to one-tenth of Shunfeng’s first-quarter revenue.
He went over there with great promises and asked people to pay so much for a project.
This dream is too fantastic.
But what Murphy said was also very pertinent: "It's really the limit. If you reduce it further, the plane can fly, but it may not fall down."
"Well... technically it's the end."
Chen Chen pinched his chin, feeling like he was about to grow a brain.
We have reached the limit in terms of cost-cutting.
There is no room for saving.
Then the only way left is open source.
"That's it. We at Morning Shield will try to make up for the extra amount."
"hiss……"
Murphy took a breath of cold air and it went into his gallbladder.
What was just reduced was the money for the tailwind, which Murphy cared about, but it was limited.
If you ask Chendun to make up for it now, it’s all your own money.
To be more specific, these are all account funds managed by Murphy.
This would be like asking for her life.
"Don't dare to have such weird thoughts!"
“Our company is just getting a little better.”
"If we want to fill this hole, Chendun, who just stood up, will fall down again."
Chen Chen is also a stingy person.
The family motto is that if you don't pick up the money, it's considered lost.
But he could understand the importance of this.
In the long run, the money Chendun pays out is equivalent to a loan to Shunfeng, and when the prototype rolls off the production line, the money will still be spread out on the production line.
The most important thing now is to meet Wei Xiao's expectations.
Let this project run successfully and smoothly.
"Don't worry about these pots and pans. We can just break them down and rebuild them."
"No, I've seen the show Bright Sword. After they broke it, they didn't even give me a crooked handle."
Chen Chen was a little confused after listening to Mo Fei's clear and logical explanation.
Girls, why watch "Drawing Sword" if not romance dramas?
He could only wave his hand and say perfunctorily: "You were watching a pirated version. I gave it to you. In the end, I really gave it to you."
"..."
"At this point, we have no choice but to suffer. In addition to not reducing the funding for ongoing projects, the group must also tighten its spending in other areas." Murphy still disagreed: "Even if we strangle ourselves to death, we can't cut this amount."
"I know. I have to figure out the rest. I'm still young and can take on some responsibilities. Calculate three exact numbers according to this plan."
Having said this, Murphy looked Chen Chen up and down.
I have thousands of words stuck in my heart.
In the end, it became a sentence "Take care of yourself".
……
After Mo Fei left, Chen Chen took out his cell phone and made a video call to Wang Qi.
Wang Qi on the screen was smiling and feeling very happy.
"The acquisition is basically a done deal, just as we thought."
Chen Chen put on a bitter and resentful expression: "I trust you to handle this matter. I have something else to do now."
"what's up?"
"It's about money."
Wang Qi is quite nice.
When I heard it was about money, I didn't hang up the phone immediately.
Instead, he found a secluded place and listened carefully to Chen Chen's difficulties.
"Isn't this a project for Wei Xiao? But the budget is a bit high and beyond her ability to bear."
"Have you talked to Mr. Wei yet?"
Chen Chen shook his head: "No, I was afraid she would spit on me."
Wang Qi laughed and didn't care at all.
It’s normal that Chen Chen doesn’t understand Shunfeng.
But Wang Qi is different. He has been working at Shunfeng since graduation.
And all the work I'm involved in is related to money.
Have an understanding of Shunfeng’s strength.
"You worry too much. Since President Wei wants to do this project, she must be capable. Her ability to bear it is much greater than you think."
"Oh, you mean this project cost her three times her quarterly profit, and she's fine, right?"
"Seize the young master!?"
Wang Qi on the screen seemed to be stuck.
But actually not.
He stared at Chen Chen with his mouth wide open, motionless for nearly three seconds.
"About 600 to 700 million."
"Fuck!"
Wang Qi was truly shocked by this number.
Now he began to feel lucky.
Fortunately, Chen Chen did not communicate with Wei Xiao.
Telling this number to others would be equivalent to costing Wei Xiao half his life.
Chen Chen also knew that this matter could not be discussed, so he put forward his ideas to Wang Qi.
"I thought I would pay part of it first, about one third, and let President Wei accept this plan and establish the project. We will have plenty of ways to make up for it later."
Wang Qi looked serious: "You don't have that much money in your Chendun account, right?"
"Yeah, so I'm looking for you."
Shunfeng Investment’s primary mission is to serve Chendun on behalf of Shunfeng.
Wang Qi never forgot his mission.
But asking for so much money is a bit difficult at the moment.
"I need to leave enough funds for Daotong. There isn't much left. I'll try to find a way to raise some of it."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Chen finally felt relieved of some of the pressure.
He immediately sent a message to Murphy.
Let him reduce the budget by another one third.
That evening.
Murphy came to Chen Chen's office with the latest budget plan.
Scratching her head for an entire afternoon made it extremely greasy, but she couldn't help scratching it.
Because when she looks at the current number, she finds it horrifying.
After knocking on the door and entering the office, she found Cao Zihua was also there. She nodded dejectedly as a greeting.
Cao Zihua was still chatting casually with Chen Chen about gossip.
"To be honest, President Wei really loves you. The first two projects turned out so badly, but he gave the third project to us. There must be some personal feelings involved."
Chen Chen was also puzzled by this matter.
When I calm down and think about it, this project is indeed a bit strange.
He couldn't find a reasonable explanation either.
I thought that what Cao Zihua said seemed to make sense.
But Murphy put forward a new point of view from his own perspective: "Isn't this a kind of mutual affection?"
Cao Zihua didn't understand.
He could see that President Wei truly loved Chen Chen.
Chen Chen has nothing against President Wei.
Murphy put the report on the table: "When you borrow money from your own pocket to start a project, there is a certain amount of personal emotion involved."
Cao Zihua still didn't understand: "What do you mean?"
Chen Chen waved his hand: "Don't listen to her nonsense, we have been busy with budget optimization."
While talking.
He reached out and picked up the latest report.
Before he started reading, Murphy had already started stacking his armor.
"Mr. Chen, this is the best job I can do."
"If you are not satisfied, I will resign."
"I have a high level of education, and I can take on a lot of blame. I can find a job anywhere that requires a 10 to 20 year sentence."
"Being in jail is easier than being in jail."
Cao Zihua didn't know what Mo Fei was complaining about.
He just walked around behind Chen Chen and looked at the report with him.
After seeing the final numbers.
"So... your optimization is not finished yet?"
Mo Fei and Chen Chen shook their heads in unison.
Chen Chen: "This is the optimized number."
Murphy was even more resolute: "The same number would be used if the earth exploded!"
Cao Zihua looked at the long string of zeros and fell into deep thought.
Since joining Morning Shield, he has never seen such a long project budget.
Chen Chen read it roughly and sighed softly: "That's it, I'll take it and try my luck, Cao Zihua, you come with me."
"I'm not going!" Cao Zihua shook his head like a rattle.
"Why, so I can meet Shen Xin."
"I'm still young and unmarried, so I can't take the risk."
Just this number.
It's not just luck that you get it.
It's a touch of knife.
This thing is almost as long as a phone number.
President Wei was so excited that his dried bamboo shoots would explode after seeing them.
That’s all for today. I’ll work harder tomorrow.
After being put on the shelves, all chapters are large ones with more than 3300 words, so the sense of separation will not be so strong.
The update time is still in the evening.
I just finished the update and saw that so many big guys have made the mistake in placing orders. I feel so guilty. I’ll kowtow to you all first and I’ll try to make it up to you all.
This is the book club 750995988
