"Mr. Jing... Han Wenguang, general manager of Phoenix Fund, and Liao Rong of Phoenix Film and Television have all arrived."
Jing Gao has an office in Zhongrun Company on the 45th floor of China World Trade Center Phase 3. As soon as he came down from upstairs, assistant Dong Youwei came in to report.
Jing Gao's visitor plans and itinerary were also under the control of Dong Youwei.
"Let them wait for a while while I make a few calls." Jing Gao took off his long coat and handed it to Dong Youwei. The air conditioner is on in his office and it's a bit hot.
Dong Youwei hung up Jing Gao's coat and exited the office door.
Jing Gao put his feet up on the desk and lay back in the boss's chair in a very arrogant posture. But it would be too boring for a person to sit upright in his own office. He called Guo Lingyu and asked, "Lingyu, how is the situation over there?"
Guo Lingyu, who lives in Malaysia, said: "I am acquiring Lin's Paper. If we take over this largest paper-making company in Southeast Asia, Galaxy Group's situation in Southeast Asia will basically collapse. This is a weather vane. Haha, Mr. Jing, Why do you have time to call me?"
The tone was somewhat resentful.
She didn't believe that Yijing Gao's "sharpness" didn't notice her affection and closeness. As a result, this guy sent her home late at night and then went about his own business.
Jing Gao didn't want to chat with her, and he didn't want to be embarrassed and lectured when he was employing people. Of course, under normal circumstances, he would not reprimand a beautiful woman who has a crush on him. He said directly: "
That’s it, Lingyu. Uber's current valuation is a bit low. I need to inject the assets of technology companies in the shared travel field that you previously acquired in Southeast Asia. The entity you use to acquire needs to be separated from Uber. "
Guo Lingyu was still resentful, but she was still very serious about her work, "I have no problem. Just ask someone from Uber headquarters to explain it to me. What is the name of the entity I used to acquire it? Do you have a name?"
Jing Gao delegated power and said, "You can start one. Equity incentives will be counted in this company in the end." The cost for him to poach "Xiao Guo" (Guo Lingyu) was much smaller. Only the amount of funds for operation, salary, and equity incentives are given.
The annual income of the executive director of Goldman Sachs Asia Pacific is about US$4 million. The salary paid by Jing Gao to Guo Lingyu is an annual salary of 10 million yuan + bonus + equity incentives.
The internal salary system of Phoenix Fund is not yet complete. Basically, the maximum annual salary for senior executives is 10 million yuan. It will definitely rise in the future. Things like wages must be kept confidential. But it’s not hard to know after working in a company for a long time.
Jinggao has no intention of disturbing the balance of the wage system. Don’t worry about scarcity but inequality! Therefore, most of Guo Lingyu's income is divided into bonuses + equity. In total, her annual income is about $15 million.
"Okay, I'll make the decision then." Guo Lingyu planned to choose an English name for the company.
…
…
After ending the phone call, Jing Gao called Liu Zhen again to inquire about Uber's listing progress and inform him about the asset injection.
Liu Zhen was in New York, USA. At about 10pm Eastern Time, he said happily: "That part of the equity is now worth about two billion US dollars, right? In this way, I am much less stressed. Mr. Jing, you have to talk to the investment bankers shall we meet?"
Jing Gao smiled and said: "You handle it. In short, the listing process can be in progress or slow, but it must not cause the listing to fail. The valuation of Uber must not be less than 50 billion US dollars. I trust your ability. "
After giving him a sweet date, Jing Gao hung up Liu Zhen's phone and gently rubbed his brow. Call Qiao Shuang again. The bigger the company is, the more troubles it has in management! When running a business in general, what is the boss’s biggest headache?
Money, money!
He does not lack red money, but he lacks trustworthy and capable professional managers.
The phone was connected, and the long-lost Xiao Qiao's voice came through, a little low, "Mr. Jing, do you want to see me if you have anything to do?"
Jing Gao laughed, "Why, are you in a bad mood?"
Qiao Shuang sobbed: "Mr. Jing, I can't live up to your trust. I...I resign to you." She was really under a lot of pressure. Moreover, her thoughts were on the wedding a year ago.
Jing Gao sighed softly, "Xiao Qiao, it's not good for you to resign like this. There are not many people I can trust. So, I will transfer you to Sina Weibo as a director and senior vice president. I hope you will be in the public opinion position." Can someone help me keep an eye on it. Just make progress as you learn. During this period, you will follow me to take courses at the China Europe Business School in Shanghai. You will then resign by getting pregnant and having a baby."
"Okay. Mr. Jing..."
Jing Gao comforted Xiao Qiao, and his thoughts couldn't help but go back to April last year. The setbacks in Xiao Qiao's career may also be due to him. Pull the seedlings to encourage growth. After Uber merged with Didi, its shareholders diversified.
Phoenix Fund's shareholding ratio is very high, about 42.3%. But it still adopts a modern governance model.
It is really difficult for Xiao Qiao to be qualified for a position like chairman with his professional experience and abilities. From his position, he jumped out and took a broad look and felt that the domestic business war was nothing more than a few models. But when the workers started fighting among themselves, it was a workplace drama!
Also lagging behind like Xiao Qiao is Yu Jiashi. However, Yu Jiashi has graduated with a bachelor's degree after all, and his learning ability is still stronger. I hope that the MBA courses in the near future will increase their abilities!
In fact, isn't he studying? However, what he studied was not such things as "finance" and "management". What he learned was to temper his state of mind and ponder people.
A bit confusing, isn't it? If he was really frightened by the "car accident case" last November and did not actively save himself or find a way, he probably should be in jail now. At that time, it was all thanks to his "strong" strength to support him.
After finishing the Uber work, Jing Gao pressed the intercom and ordered: "Youwei, let Han Wenguang come in."
…
…
After a while, Han Wenguang, the general manager of Phoenix Fund, came in. He came to Jing Gao today mainly to report on the work of Phoenix Fund and to ask for instructions on contacting Baidu Waimai. "Mr. Jing, Baidu intends to sell their food delivery business, and I hope to get your support."
The takeaway business is a very important payment entrance. This is a must grab. Otherwise, Phoenix Pay may be blocked by Meituan and Ele.me, the two giants in the food delivery industry. This is the core benefit.
Jing Gao held his chin and pondered for a few minutes, then said, "I just had a meeting with Guan Yujia to prepare for the establishment of Phoenix Group. The structure of Phoenix Fund will not change, and it will still be our external venture capital brand.
Of course, we can’t spend billions of dollars. Guan Yujia and Cao Danqing's positions will be changed to presidents of Phoenix Group. You come to take charge of Phoenix Fund and be promoted to president of Phoenix Fund, with Zuo Hao as vice president. You report to Guan Yujia at work.
Phoenix Payment is built on top of Phoenix Finance, which is involved in funds, insurance and other businesses. It is the responsibility of Cao Danqing.
The amount of investment I have allocated to you this year is $10 billion. You need to appoint investment general managers in several fields and directions. You go back and report the structure.
So, how much does Baidu Takeout cost? "
Han Wenguang didn't expect that Jing Gao would make adjustments to the company's structure. His wife had become a mother-in-law after many years. With joy on his face, he said repeatedly: "Okay. Okay. Mr. Jing, Baidu plans to sell it for 1 billion US dollars. This price is on the high side. Here is the detailed information."
Han Wenguang took out the document from his briefcase and handed it to Jing Gao with both hands.
Jing Gao was actually a little surprised. Although Baidu Waimai ranks third this year, it can’t beat Meituan and Ele.me. So it won’t just sell it for US$1 billion, right? Baidu Waimai still has advantages in some cities.
Seeing Jing Gao flipping through the documents casually, Han Wenguang said: "Mr. Jing, Baidu's revenue has dropped very sharply in recent years, and it is difficult to recover. So Li Yanhong invited professional manager Lu Qi. What he is currently planning for Baidu is Concentrated on the main circuit. Therefore, they want to get rid of the food delivery business."
Jing Gao put the document back and said: "You contact me first. Then, ask Meituan if they accept our shareholding. The shares can be kept at about 10%. We do not pursue holdings, but we hope to maintain a certain degree of influence. Don't Let Meituan ban Phoenix Pay.”
If Meituan doesn’t accept it, he’s going to do it himself.
As for whether you are hungry, don’t even think about it. His relationship with Ali had long been at loggerheads.
Han Wenguang said: "Okay, Mr. Jing, I'll go back first."
Jing Gao nodded, gestured to Dong Youwei who came in, picked up the landline, and dialed Guan Yujia.
