With a tired look on his face, Yang Dongxu returned home, threw himself on the sofa and kept rubbing his forehead. He now understood a little bit why so many corporate bosses made a lot of money, and in the eyes of ordinary people, they should be very nourished, but they all became A bald head or the Mediterranean. Being a leader is really not that easy, so he is going to find a helper for himself.
The game market has been in full swing for several years, and Carrefour has been so unkind this time. Not only did it drag Uni-President into the battle chariot, but it also formulated a targeted plan to enter the mainland market.
If he spreads too much energy on the retail industry, he will not be able to worry about the gaming market. At this moment, he finally understood why even Zhou Ya looked at him with resentment when he dug a hole and immediately became the shopkeeper.
One person's energy really cannot cope with so many things, especially when he is involved in specific work. So he needs to find a reliable professional manager, that is, a CEO for Millennium Supermarket.
Hu Dashan is a good executor, but he is not a good innovator. In the past, when there were few competitors in the domestic market, he could do a good job.
But in the face of a strong opponent's attack, how to defend and how to counterattack his personal ability is somewhat limited, and Yang Dongxu must go into battle shirtless.
In fact, not only Millennium Supermarket, but also other industries under Yang Dongxu have gradually begun to have such problems. For example, Ye Rongrong from Dongxu Technology, although she is studying hard to enhance her personal abilities while working, she feels more and more pressure now when she is in charge of the increasingly large Dongxu Technology.
He even took the initiative to ask Yang Dongxu to find a suitable CEO, so Yang Dongxu made the programmer Lei Jun the general manager and the executive vice president of Dongxu Technology. While developing mobile phones, he also participated in the specific management of other businesses of Dongxu Technology.
At Sanwan Travel Agency, Chen Xin is currently focusing on finance, which she is familiar with. Instead, she leaves the CEO job to other general managers as much as possible, because she knows her own abilities and cannot control the Sanwan carriage that is starting to accelerate. .
Although Xiushui Trading has been making money in recent years, it has not developed well. Almost all the management of Hurricane Construction have been replaced by more capable Zhao Yu and others.
The situation of Huaxiu is the best. Bao Xiaomei, who is highly educated and has outstanding abilities, has enough skills whether it is developing the mainland market or the third-place foreign market.
BMW Motor Company has never found a suitable manager, so this time he needs to personally take action when it comes to importing cars in the United States.
In other words, it is not just Millennium Supermarket, but also for the better development of the companies under its control. Almost all companies must make up for the top talent. Even if they don't need to recruit all CEOs, they still need to recruit some capable assistants.
Some elderly people are increasingly unable to keep up with the development of the company. You must know that China will join the WTO soon. At that time, domestic companies will face an even more fierce impact from international companies. How can they fight without a few generals who can keep up with the times?
Yang Dongxu took out his mobile phone and made a call to Li Ji. Although the current development of Universal Intermediary is not revealing, there is no doubt about Li Ji's ability to handle such a complex market with ease.
He asked whether Li Ji should be transferred to another company to deal with the emergency, but after thinking for a moment, he felt that this would be a waste of money and might even mess up the well-developed intermediary company market.
So he decided to poach people and poach professional talents in a targeted manner. Now that the retail industry needs a general who can take charge of his/her own duties, we should have a clear goal of poaching big talents in the domestic or international retail industry. As long as we are willing to spend money, we will definitely be able to poach the talents we need.
After hanging up the phone, Yang Dongxu felt that his energy had been completely drained. He lay on the sofa like a dead fish and didn't want to move. He couldn't help but think about whether he could dig out Huang Guangtou or Suning's Lao Zhang, or maybe he could lure Huang Guangtou or Suning's Lao Zhang over. It's okay to take Suguo's old horse.
If any of these three people comes to take charge of Millennium Supermarket, then he can continue to be the hands-off shopkeeper. Let these big names compete with international capital.
It is a pity that these three people are either the founders or shareholders of their own companies. He wants to poach them unless he is willing to spend huge sums of money to acquire these three companies.
But with Gome and Suning, even the current assets of Suguo, which was finally established, are. Qian Qian could barely sustain himself after eating Suguo, but it was impossible to eat Gome and Suning. Both businesses are no smaller than Millennium.
Go through all the information about Suguo and various introductions from Lao Ma in your mind. Yang Dongxu shook his head. It is not appropriate to start a merger and acquisition war in China at the moment. Otherwise, everyone will be in danger and it will be harmful to resist the naturalization of foreign companies.
After a night's rest, Yang Dongxu got up early the next morning, casually ordered some breakfast, and prepared to continue the meeting with Hu Dashan and others in the district company. Since Li Ji didn't find a suitable candidate, and even if he found a suitable candidate, he still had to get familiar with Millennium Supermarket, he had to devote his energy to managing Millennium Supermarket personally.
"Hey, what's wrong?" When I arrived at the company door, I found that the security guard was driving a small man with a big head out of the door.
"He said what kind of website he wanted to make and asked Manager Hu to invest in it. Manager Hu was preparing for a meeting in the morning. He said it could wait, and then he kept lobbying other management of the company, and then..." the security guard explained.
"Are you the leader of the company? Can you give me ten minutes? No more than three minutes is enough!" Ma Fengyun got rid of the entanglement of the security guard, straightened his clothes and the bag on his shoulder and said.
The security guard also wanted to step forward to stop Yang Dongxu and waved his hand. He looked with interest at the man who would become a man of the hour a few years later. The trajectory of history had not changed. The richest man in front of him, who was called an alien, began to start a business and make investments everywhere.
"Ma Fengyun?" Yang Dongxu said.
"Do you know me?" Ma Fengyun's eyes lit up.
"I've heard of it. After all, you seem to know many entrepreneurs." Yang Dongxu said.
Ma Fengyun touched his nose a little embarrassedly. He knew many entrepreneurs. There is no way to fool people into investing if you don’t know them, how can you fool them?
But this embarrassment passed in a flash. Who is Ma Fengyun? A man who used his sharp tongue to trick various well-paid eighteen Arhats into resigning, and finally became the richest man in the country. The embarrassment is just that he has not yet become a talented person at this time, but inside he is the guy who regrets founding Alibaba and doesn't like money and can show off to the sky.
"Aren't you negotiating with SoftBank? Why do you have time to run here?" Yang Dongxu continued to ask.
Ma Fengyun, who originally saw that Yang Dongxu was willing to talk to him and was planning to use words to deceive him, suddenly changed his expression and looked at Yang Dongxu warily.
Alibaba is indeed in contact with SoftBank again, but the negotiations are currently at a deadlock. There is resistance to SoftBank’s share requirements, so everyone is still talking.
This time, he personally came to find Hu Dashan. One reason is that Millennium Supermarket is currently the leading supermarket in China. If he cooperates with him to launch online shopping prizes, he will get twice the result with half the effort.
The second is that Millennium has an overnight logistics system and has a strategic partnership with Dafeng Logistics, which has suddenly emerged in the past two years. Joining Millennium is equivalent to joining half of Dafeng Logistics, which will be a big help for his subsequent online shopping.
But his negotiations with SoftBank were not kept secret, but it was not something ordinary people could know. Especially after many domestic entrepreneurs rejected him, no one noticed this matter at all. How did this young man know?
Does he know that his eagerness to attract Millennium and Dafeng Logistics is a plan to improve Alibaba's confidence and make SoftBank relax on its shares?
Before the surprised Ma Fengyun could speak, Yang Dongxu continued: "You and Lao Sun said that the negotiation for investment in Alibaba will be based on your current requirements. I agree, but there is one more thing to add. Under the same conditions for subsequent financing, SoftBank will have priority in entering." Equity.”
After saying this, he turned around and walked into the company without waiting for Ma Fengyun's answer. Ma Fengyun was left behind, messy in the wind, looking at his back as if he were a fool.
"Is this guy's head caught in the door?" This was Ma Fengyun's first reaction after hearing Yang Dongxu's words.
He admits that Millennium Supermarket is awesome, but it is awesome in China. You, the leader of Millennium Supermarket, actually ordered SoftBank to invest in you, and you agreed? You agree with me, this guy is better at pretending than me. He has almost reached the stage where pretending is like the wind and is always with me. He is at least a step ahead of him who likes to pretend.
When he came to the company, Yang Dongxu was anxious that Hu Dashan and others would continue the meeting to study ways to deal with the Carrefour trend. As for Ma Fengyun, he put it in the back of his mind for the time being.
It’s not that he doesn’t care about Ma Fengyun. If he didn’t care, would he let SoftBank invest in Alibaba? It's just that although the development of the domestic Internet has begun to move on the fast track, it will take several years for online shopping to develop.
At this time, just keep investing in Alibaba so that he has enough funds to develop. There is no need to get involved and point fingers. In his previous life, the richest man Ma was able to overcome so many difficulties and fight his way out.
What's more, he has opened up the capital supply in this life, so he only needs to invest money and reap the results. There is no need to dig the hole yourself and then bury it yourself as before. This time, the hands-off shopkeeper was definitely more relaxed and comfortable than digging holes in the past, and he was also confident and not afraid of being slapped in the face.
Ma Fengyun returned to the company a little unhappy after being forced to do so.
"How was the discussion?" Peng Lei, one of the Eighteen Arhats, asked.
"It's very successful, but they want to deal with Carrefour now, and they don't have the energy to do other things for the time being. This cooperation only reached a verbal agreement, and they can't allocate too much energy to negotiate with us." Ma Fengyun was excited at first, and then sighed a little It looked like the time was not coincidental.
"How's the discussion going with Minsheng? His online payment system is too important to us." Seeing Peng Lei's I-don't-know-you look in her eyes, Ma Fengyun touched her nose and changed the topic.
Pretending too much has made his peers accustomed to it and even recognize his true intentions at a glance. Ma Fengyun feels that he still has a lot of room for improvement in this aspect.
"The progress is not ideal, but I will help you make an appointment with Boss Zong for dinner tonight."
