The year 2002 may be a year of unrest in the hearts of many people, but in the eyes of others, it may also be a year of great turmoil.

This year may be the most memorable for all Chinese people who like sports: the South Korea and Japan World Cup was held, the national football team played the World Cup for the first time under the leadership of Milu, and then bid farewell with no results, in contrast to South Korea's advance to the semifinals; in the basketball world, the three major centers in China will join the NBA, and Yao Ming was elected as the champion rookie, creating history. At this time, the NBA was not the NBA that talked about freedom of speech at that time, and the Chinese people were full of expectations for it.

In this year, people called people addicted to the Internet "Internet worms", and many Internet cafes named them after them; the first generation of "MM" Internet language "Meimei" has become popular; Korean movies, culture, music, and the hit "Meteor Garden" of various David TV have become a trend, and the "Korean Wave" has become a phenomenon that many people are sad about.

This was the year in which the two behemoths, New Telecom and New Unicom, were officially inaugurated, and a "five-plus-one" pattern was formed in China's telecommunications industry; Shanghai won the right to host the 2010 World Expo; the "Shenzhou-4" was successfully launched at the end of the year; the Three Gorges Project diversion nullah was successfully intercepted; and Chinese scientists took the lead in drawing up a genetic map of rice......

This year, with the slogan of "national retreat and democratic advancement", the process of state-owned assets reform is in full swing. And the news media reported on it at length. These masters from all walks of life, who involved many interest groups, finally fought hard in 2002, and the following year it became white-hot. Although ordinary people did not have much understanding of the aftermath of the war, it affected their lives in all aspects, from the goods they used every day, the houses they lived in, the topics they discussed, and the policies promulgated by the state.

......

In the midst of this hustle and bustle of all parties and the tide of the times, in a small remote county town in southeast China, as a small chess piece of a state-owned enterprise, Wang Yuye's mood was successfully disturbed by Qi Zheng.

When Qi Zheng said to Wang Yuye: "Actually, you can consider joining my company", Wang Yuye once thought that Qi Zheng was joking.

Looking at Qi Zheng and making sure he wasn't joking, Wang Yuye said, "I really haven't thought about it." ”

"I just heard that you are considering leaving the CNOOC Group, and I have an idea. Qi Zheng said very seriously: "Brother Wang, you can come to Jiagu, I have a big plan, and I need management talents like you very much." ”

Wang Yuye only considered changing the unit, but he didn't make up his mind, let alone jump out of the state-owned enterprise system. So he vaguely refused: "I haven't thought about leaving Nanhai Oil yet." ”

Qi Zheng was not angry, and handed Wang Yuye several newspapers brought back from the United States, motioning him to look at the news marked on them.

Wang Yuye was puzzled, took the newspaper, and browsed the circled news one by one, all of which were about a report that "Devon Energy acquired a new oil field in Texas that is suspected to have been explored by an Asian consortium for a huge sum of more than $1.6 billion".

Then he raised his head and asked Qi Zheng with a puzzled look.

Qi Zheng explained lightly: "Didn't I go to the United States two months ago? ”

Hearing this, Wang Yuye's pupils shrank.

He looked down again at the newspaper in his hand to hide the shock in his heart.

At this time, Wang Yuye was far from cultivating to the point where he was not shocked by the fact that money was like a number more than ten years later.

This look is more than ten minutes.

Wang Yuye finally calmed down, although he still smacked his lips from time to time, he was already able to ask Qi Zheng for details normally.

Qi Zheng silently admired, worthy of being a great bull who can achieve a career.

You know, it's you, when I heard that there was a huge income of $1.6 billion, my mood was also up and down. And Wang Yuye was only able to accept this reality in just twenty minutes of calmness - at least on the surface, he already had a big heart.

Qi Zheng continued: "Although I still keep some of this money for investment in the United States after paying taxes, the amount of funds that can be transferred back to China is still 78 billion yuan. ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Wang Yuye, "You can also imagine how Jiagu will develop rapidly with the injection of this fund." With the continuous expansion of the company's scale, there is a need for a general manager with sufficient management ability, and you are the most suitable one among the candidates I have an impression of. ”

Wang Yuye shook his head with a wry smile, "I don't know if you should be happy or frightened if you look at me differently like this?

Qi Zheng said: "I know some of your experience, after returning from studying abroad, I also started from the ordinary staff of Nanhai Oil, all the way to the head of the regional branch, and developed the original declining regional branch into the top three departments of the group......

Hearing what Qi Zheng said, Wang Yuye gradually came to his senses, and he asked directly: "Xiao Qi, have you thought about it a long time ago?"

"Yes. Qi Zheng couldn't deny it, and he didn't intend to deny it: "The previous contact with you made a deep impression on me, so I entrusted the relationship to understand your experience." Originally, I didn't plan to invite you so soon, but after the trip to the United States, the company suddenly had the financial strength to expand aggressively. But there was a fatal shortcoming that I couldn't ignore, the company was severely lacking in senior management staff, and the first target that came to my mind at that time was you. ”

Qi Zheng with great sincerity: "Brother Wang, since then, I have been seriously considering poaching you to my company." ”

"It's a bit sudden. Wang Yuye spread his hand: "It's too surprising to me." ”

Qi Zheng nodded, "I can understand, it was a bit sudden, but it wasn't my whim." ”

"Brother Wang, Jiagu's platform may not be as big as Nanhai Oil for the time being, but the internal relationship is relatively simple, there are not so many contradictions, it is full of vitality for development, and it is easier for people to show their ambitions. ”

"We have ample funding, and I'm not asking you to be the head of a department. My idea is to invite you to be the General Manager of Jia Gu Group, with full responsibility for the business development and management of the Group. ”

"I envision that Jiagu will implement a full stock ownership plan, for employees and for senior management have corresponding equity incentive plans, like Brother Wang, you are the first time to join the core executives, at least one percent to two percent of the entire Jiagu system of equity, of course, the specific plan may also need Brother Wang, you personally help to formulate, but the concept of financial dispersion and gathering people will be implemented throughout. ”

Wang Yuye was completely moved.

At this time, domestic equity incentives were not common.

In contrast, in the United States, in the 70s of the last century, Silicon Valley initiated the practice of stock option incentive system, and by 99 years, almost 100 percent of high-tech companies and 90 percent of listed companies had implemented stock option awards.

In the 90s, domestic enterprises have begun to try this aspect one after another, and the real stock options are really accepted by the public to be recognized and implemented, and there are still several years from now 02.

How many private enterprises in China are still family-run. The owner of the company is like the landlord and old wealth in the old era, and he holds on to the company's equity and refuses to share it with the outside world.

Qi Zheng, who offered such attractive conditions, was able to cause the heart of a master like Wang Yuye to shake.

And this kind of solicitation, which is beyond this era, has brought unexpected results. For example, after all, Qi Zheng has seen a lot of equity incentive operations in later generations, and he doesn't realize how bold his move is in the eyes of people like Wang Yuye, which is why he didn't choose to refuse at the first time.

The advanced nature of some things can only be seen at a glance by those who know the goods, and where the potential and vitality are there.

Needless to say, Qi Zheng is just a young man who has just graduated, if he is allowed to become a climate for a few more years, what kind of situation will he go to?

The potential of this person is limitless.

It was only at this time that Wang Yuye really took Qi Zheng's suggestion into consideration.

Wang Yuye turned the coffee cup and was silent for a long time before asking, "So, Xiao Qi, what about Jiagu's ultimate goal?"

"From your past experience, I know that you have a great talent for the development of agriculture and animal husbandry, and I can understand that you have suddenly become rich in the United States and have not chosen to spend the slightest money on spending money and enjoying life. But you can start a new business in the United States, and the person in charge there is also an outstanding person - I believe your vision for the time being. That means that in the future, at least in the United States, you will have a steady supply of money. ”

"And back to the billions in China, you didn't set your sights on investing in other industries – I remember you said earlier that the next few decades will be the era of real estate and the Internet. I agree with you, then, investing even part of the money in these two areas is not comparable to investing in agriculture alone, and I don't believe you will not see this. ”

"But you don't, you're still focused on agriculture. Billions of dollars, investing nothing is easier and less risky than agriculture. ”

"So, I'm curious, what is your ultimate goal, and it should be more than just farming, right?"

Qi Zheng looked at Wang Yuye with a serious face, and secretly admired in his heart, he was worthy of being a man who could master a giant central enterprise in the future, with a vicious vision, and he could spy on a little bit of his own thoughts from his own views and choices.

He was asking a question, so why didn't he want to confirm the guess in his heart?

"Brother Wang, you should know the four major international grain merchants, right?"

Wang Yuye nodded, "I don't know all of them, but I'm familiar with ADM." ”

Qi Zheng laughed, ADM is known as a food giant more like an oil company, and it is not surprising that Wang Yuye, who does energy, is the most familiar with it.

Qi Zheng smiled and drew a rough map of the world with tea on the stone table, picking up a few stones from the ground and placing them on them.

The movement was very slow, and he said while putting it down: "There are Cargill, ADM, and Bunge in the Americas, Louis Dreyfus Company in Europe, RB Marubeni and other five major trading companies in Asia, and Wilmar International ......in Singapore."

Wang Yuye's eyes flashed.
