In the courtyard of Yanjing University, Yang Dongxu walked to the door to greet the man who thought he had some gray hair on Yanjing's temples.
This man is not the leader of any department, but Li Ji, the boss of Universal Intermediary Company.
Looking at the many companies Yang Dongxu owns, and the CEOs and executives of so many companies, Li Ji is the one who does not have a high sense of presence, but he is definitely his most trusted general.
It seems that in recent years, Universal Intermediary has done nothing but set benchmarks for the intermediary industry. After all, Universal Intermediary’s revenue is the lowest among the companies under Yang Dongxu every year.
It is only a little higher than Yang Jiayan, let alone the supermarket chain Millennium. If Dafeng Logistics had not started to spend money this year to build a secondary market, Universal Intermediary seems to be inferior to Dafeng Logistics, which was just established in recent years.
But these are just appearances. In fact, the top companies under Yang Dongxu are Ye Rongrong of Dongxu Technology, Zhao Yu of Hurricane Construction, Huaxiu’s CEO Bao Xiaomei, and Xuri Technology’s CEO Qiu Bosong.
Han Jun, CEO of BMW China, and even Lei Jun, CEO of Honor Mobile Company, are currently on the cusp of just two years after splitting from Dongxu Technology.
They all respect Li Ji very much. It can be said that Li Ji helped to recruit more than half of the senior management talents of Yang Dongxu's companies, and many of them were directly recruited by headhunters at high prices.
When these companies were just starting out, it can be said that Li Ji put a lot of effort into building the company's leadership team.
You must know that many Chinese people at the bottom level do not lack employees, but how to build a company's leadership team framework? If we can find suitable talents to add to different middle and high-level teams.
Even the big boss Yang Dongxu is not as familiar as Li Ji. After all, Yang Dongxu only cares about the general direction and directly explains what to do and how to move forward.
How the people below perform tasks is a reflection of the individual abilities below. Li Ji played the most important role in establishing the company's management team.
It can be said that Li Ji knows all the people in the companies under Yang Dongxu better than Zhang Yue's previous personal assistant.
His status is basically the same as that of Wu Aibing of the supervisory department now known as Cold-faced Yama, but he is more low-key than Wu Aibing. He feels like a kind of snake oil. You can go to him for any problem and he can solve it for you.
"Big Boss, I'm so flattered that you stopped at the door." Seeing Yang Dongxu standing at the door, Li Ji quickly took two steps up the steps.
Li Jipong gives people the impression that he is always so inconspicuous without revealing the landscape, but he has the world running in his heart, his ability is extremely outstanding and has reached a certain level.
"Come on, you haven't seen big winds and waves, and you dare to slam the table with foreign giants and are you still afraid of me?" Yang Dongxu joked with a smile.
However, although the tone is teasing, it is not teasing to slap the table with foreign giants.
Poaching people will be hated by others. Li Ji has been using the hoe in his hands for nothing these years. For Yang Dongxu's subordinates, it is a timely help to save the people in trouble. For other companies, it is absolutely hateful.
If it weren't for the fact that he always brings bodyguards with him when he goes out and is usually very low-key, he would almost not attend any banquets and banquets like Yang Dongxu. Otherwise, it is really unknown whether he will be able to regain all his limbs now.
You must know that in the early years of reform and opening up, although the economy was growing rapidly, the public security in various places was not as good as it is now. There are not just two serious cases of violently snatching property and killing people.
It is really not easy for Li Ji, who has always offended people and offended so many people, to be able to live such a healthy life until now.
"I have bodyguards with me, and they don't dare to do anything to me even if I bang the table." Li Ji said with a smile.
The two of them walked towards the dining room talking and laughing.
The only guest at the banquet today was Li Ji, so the two of them sat down next to Cui Ma and started serving food.
"How did you go when I asked you to consolidate resources at the end of last year?" There is no rule about eating or sleeping. Two mature men sit together and don't make any inappropriate jokes, so talking about work becomes a matter of course. A natural topic.
"It's almost there. We have already begun to inject resources into Wuba and Ganji, as well as Tongcheng and Ctrip in batches.
The team of Universal Intermediary has begun to settle in these four companies in batches. In the first half of this year, the intermediary second-hand houses and rental houses in Wuba and Ganji will explode. The resources and talent resume database of recruiting companies will explode.
Resource injection from Tongcheng and Ctrip has also begun, and has been coordinated with Manager Li. Sanwan Travel Agency, as the first-tier offline cooperative travel agency of these two, can register for online travel, book hotels, check travel guides, etc. Other functions are being launched one after another.
In addition, Universal Intermediary has assisted these two companies in developing mobile app online products, which will be ready for trial operation in about the second half of the year.
And when you open the collective name or Ctrip, if you want to eat delicious food, read travel guides, book hotels, etc., you don’t need to open the computer, just open the mobile phone. "Li Ji said.
At first, when Yang Dongxu discussed with him to break up the Universal Intermediary team and introduce talents to online platforms such as Wuba and Ganji respectively, and create dual online and offline business routes, Li Ji was honestly opposed to it.
After all, the universal intermediary was like his own son from scratch, and no one wanted to see their own son chopped into pieces and eaten.
However, when Yang Dongxu patiently explained to him, and emphasized that this was not about splitting Universal Intermediary, but about helping Universal Intermediary untie its constraints and grow better.
It's like burying the roots of a big tree that originally grew in one place into several other pieces of fertile soil, although there will be pain when the roots are pulled out of the ground.
But when it grows in the new soil and begins to absorb nutrients, the towering tree of Universal Intermediary will grow rapidly.
After some persuasion and explanation, Li Jicai gradually let go of the resistance in his heart, and carefully and steadily provided various resources to Universal Intermediary to ensure quality and quantity, providing various resource support to the currently selected companies, and then waiting for these companies to grow and support them in return.
From the current point of view, the decision of his big boss is as far-sighted as ever. Although the universal agency has just begun to hollow out itself and inject resources into websites such as Wuba, a bright future has begun to beckon to him.
At the same time, his identity and status have also changed from the personal management of the universal intermediary to a higher-level executive who manages and supervises websites such as Wuba.
He is very familiar with how to prepare management personnel to maximize operational results.
In addition, the big boss Yang Dongxu guides these companies in the right direction. After the initial busy period, Li Ji suddenly found that the number of companies he managed had expanded from one to four, but his work had been reduced by half. He was a little uncomfortable with being so free all of a sudden.
"As long as everything goes well, when you manage these companies from now on, those who do well will be praised, and those who do poorly will be directly punished. Don't be polite.
Don’t do what I planned to do before merging them, and let them develop separately and compete with each other, always maintaining competitive pressure.
Let’s compete for five years first to hone the combat effectiveness of the team and the company. Once you have developed a strong tendon, you don't have to be afraid even if the domestic market is further opened to the international market and there are all kinds of strong opponents. Yang Dongxu said.
On the surface, Magnum appears to be split up, but in reality, it is secretly becoming the most powerful company. This is a pilot operation prepared by Yang Dongxu.
That’s why I choose Magnum Company instead of other companies. It's because the development of Wanmeng Company has encountered a bottleneck. As a large company that can expand its online platform, because it has developed so well before and has restrained itself, Yang Dongxu naturally wants to help him break the constraints.
At present, it seems that this attempt is successful. The essence of Wan Neng's offline physical business is still preserved. The Internet platform that it is not good at has been transferred to other companies through investment, shareholding and acquisition, and the entire Wan Neng company has ushered in a new life.
"In addition to helping these online platforms grow rapidly in the next period of time, you can talk to Mr. Li from Haina, or you can find people yourself.
Focus on the media and advertising businesses of these platforms. The main income of these online platforms is these two pieces, so you have to grasp these two cores in your hands to prevent the people below from causing trouble.
Of course, media and advertising are sometimes a bit exaggerated to achieve their goals, which is a bit different from the normal model of the industry that Universal Intermediary has always adhered to.
You need to overcome this and get used to it. However, media and advertising may be a little exaggerated due to their natural attributes.
However, you cannot compromise on the platform’s services, salary purposes and regulations. Whether it is the previous universal intermediary or the current online platforms, we are all aiming to build brand and reputation.
It’s not about luring investors with all kinds of bragging, and then using financing money to put the platform on the market with all the bells and whistles to make money. The quality of service must be excellent, and you must take care of this. "
"Don't worry about this. Although Wanmian has retreated behind the scenes now, the service quality and reputation that Wanmian has always insisted on will continue well on these platforms.
When the time comes, I will take care of the service quality and customer complaints personally. I will deal with anyone who dares to play tricks in this regard.
As for the media and advertising business, I will also personally identify the team and lead the team to implement it. "Li Ji kept nodding his head and grasped the key points very accurately.
"Okay, let's have a drink and wish that the Internet industry will have a low-key boss in the future." Yang Dongxu smiled and raised it.
"What a big shot, he's just a part-time worker."
"How about I double your salary and you return the shares of these companies and Universal Company to me?" Yang Dongxu joked.
"Well, this is all my labor income. If you take it back, I will sue you at the labor bureau." Li Ji immediately looked serious.
The two people looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.
To be honest, since Yang Dongxu started his business, many people have been left behind due to one or another problem. There are really not many old people like Li Ji who have been with him from beginning to end, so he cherishes it very much.
The two of them had a drink together.
"After the universal intermediary resources are integrated with these companies, let Wu Aibing lead a team to conduct a thorough investigation of these companies from bottom to top.
So much effort has been spent and so many resources invested. It is better to kick out those whose mobile phones are not clean, or whose corpses are empty, or who are incompetent, as soon as possible. If they don't get too big, they will lose weight in a certain link in the future when they compete with strong enemies. "Li Ji said.
"You are the boss of these companies and you have the final say." Yang Dongxu delegated power directly.
Although Li Ji was gentle and low-key, he seemed to have a good temper. When he really waved the knife, it was extremely sharp.
