Chapter 279: President (3)
It's really a flash of inspiration.
Biatti's popularity on the stock exchange last year, and the fact that he helped Fan Liancheng make a fortune, made the company's owner the richest man in the country for some time, including the launch of the world's first mass-produced plug-in hybrid.
In this way, some people are indeed starting to focus on the electric vehicle market, and the technology in many aspects is not enough in the past, but after driving the Tesla electric supercar, Fan Liancheng feels that the technology is relatively mature.
Coincidentally, with the recent growth of the business, some executives and shareholders have begun to be dissatisfied with the status quo and have ambitions to expand into other markets, so they have taken advantage of the trend and proposed the idea of investing in electric vehicles.
The first is to cooperate with Longcheng to invest, with more funds in front of the CEO of Tesla, to seize more active position, and the second is to lay out the new energy vehicle market, and the future prospects are not bad.
Fan Liancheng is a young man in the end, and his ideas are more out-of-the-box, and he doesn't think that because Longcheng Group is mainly engaged in the upstream and downstream business of real estate, he must be trapped in this industry, and it is not bad to try more.
Of course, it doesn't have to be Tesla, which he has contacted, as he knows of an electric car manufacturer called Fisker that is also good and has just launched its first hybrid production car this year.
His subordinates will sort out the latest interesting global news every day, and Fan Liancheng also reads it almost every day, and many new trends can't escape his eyes, such as the iPhone 3GS has just been released, but the news says that the next generation of products is the real era of disruption.
To be honest, in his eyes, these news are more interesting than engaging in real estate, slightly cooler, real estate is all old-fashioned such as land development and sales, nothing more than whether the sales are good or bad, whether the house price rises or not, and the attraction is naturally worse.
Vice President Qian thought that he had heard it wrong for a while, and never thought that he could come out of Fan Liancheng's mouth to "make cars", a business that could not be beaten, and said with a wry smile: "Produce cars...... If the investment is too big, it is easy to affect the normal operation of the company, and this is not a simple matter of buying a hotel, a football club, or where to get land for development. ”
"It's not big, the market value of a small company is not high, five or six billion US dollars, the key is to have ready-made technology, just see if it can grow smoothly. We only invest, other businesses are not mixed, you can take a look with me first, and then talk about ...... after reading"
made a phone call to Han Xiaowen and learned that she was learning to make egg tarts at home, and Fan Liancheng asked her to drive the electric car to the gate of Longcheng Group.
The distance is not far, and I received a reply after more than ten minutes that I have come.
I personally took Qian Hai downstairs, gave him the key after seeing the appearance, and asked Vice President Qian to try it himself, and come back after driving farther away to experience it.
When he just stepped on the accelerator, he didn't catch it, and the speed was too fast, which scared Vice President Qian into a cold sweat, and he was more than ten centimeters away from hitting Vice President Yin's Mercedes-Benz S.
......
The other side.
Lao Fan received an invitation to go to the meeting with Old Man Geng, who is currently the chairman.
Halfway through the old man Geng raised the baffle in the car, then he told with a serious face: "Mr. Fan, I recently added a granddaughter, I used to promise my wife that she would retire at the age of fifty-five, and accompany her to walk around and enjoy her old age, I probably can't do this job anymore, there is still some time to the New Year, you can find someone to replace me, I won't come after the year." ”
I had expected that Geng Niu would not have the heart to continue to gain a firm foothold in Longcheng, and he was also a bowl of water on weekdays, and he liked to be a peacemaker many times, which was not like wanting to do big things.
However, Lao Fan felt that it was a bit sudden, so he should keep it, so he replied: "My granddaughter won't run away again, I want to see when I can't watch it, you can do it for another year, just one year, and then I will arrange a plane to send you around the world, and I will reimburse all expenses." ”
Old man Geng spoke politely to others, and there were not too many taboos in front of Lao Fan, and he said speechlessly: "Year after year, I should have left in the middle of last year, and I only agreed to help you watch the company until you came out, it has been a long time, and now when I go home, my old lady doesn't have a good face."
You see how many years I still have to live? Don't delay me in providing for the elderly, the rule is that the dead are alive, the plate in Longcheng is too big, ordinary people can't hold it down, you want to find a way to move around, there is no need to abide by the rule that you can't be the chairman for a few years.
After I leave, you will be the chairman of the board of directors, and leave the position of president of the group to your son, I look at the current situation, not many shareholders will jump out to oppose it, and these executives have no reason to object, life is already very good, it is really not possible to spend some money on shares, plug their mouths, and then the two most important positions in the company are in the hands of your father and son, who can turn the sky upside down?"
Lao Fan is also thinking about this, it is not impossible to return to the position of chairman after a little operation, and besides, the market value has soared since the beginning of this year, as long as there is no problem, who will hold on to this little handle.
Sighing and looking at Old Man Geng, he continued to ask, "You really don't plan to do it anymore?"
"Of course it's true, I have nothing to do for fun, what are you doing, in the end, I am old, I can't bear to walk around, I just want to do something that doesn't use my brain, drink tea, listen to plays, it's best to go abroad a few more times, remember to let your son lend me a private jet." ”
Old man Geng was not temporary, he had the idea of resigning several times, and he only recently made up his mind to put it forward, which was easier and calmer than he imagined, and he lost the position of chairman of one of the largest real estate groups in the country, which made him feel relieved.
It can be said that after seeing the scenery on the top of the mountain in his early years, he just wanted to find a place where the wind was not too windy to live comfortably.
Lao Fan said to his lips, but in the end he didn't force it, and said with a smile:
"The plane must be borrowed, I will send you wherever I want, and the resignation may not be done before the end of the year, at the latest after the year, I will ask someone first."
If you can't do it, let Vice President Yin hold it for a while, there is no need for me to be the chairman, I am not young at this age, my grandson is still flying in the sky, maybe I can't hold it for three or five years, now young people are different from our time, I can't control my son. ”
"Vice President Yin is very good, he has the ability, but he doesn't seem to have great ambitions. Your son is also very good, his ability to make money is too powerful, today's young people don't know what's going on, I heard that the hairy boy in his twenties in the United States can be worth as much as one or two hundred billion dollars, I can't understand it. ”
Old man Geng breathed a sigh of relief and said happily: "I can be a villain before I leave, and if anyone is unhappy with me, tell me, I will kick people out directly." In the past, I believed that being a boss must be strong, and the economic situation has been so good this year that no one can hold back. ”
Hearing this, Lao Fan laughed: "Okay! When the time comes, I will make a list for you, especially the independent director surnamed Song, who really regards himself as a character, you help drive away that guy, I invite you to drink and go fishing......"
