Chapter 154: Listing and Moving East

GQ operates from the company's name is marked by a strong sense of personal heroism, and it is true that everything in the company's inception was supported by the name General.Qi. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The first start-up capital came from Qi Zimo's personal contribution, the first partner was Mu GQ, who traveled from the West Coast to Boston, and the first business was of course Qi Zimo led the team to get off to a good start. It can be said that GQ has grown from a small mill to the second largest operation consulting company in North America in the past five years.

But today, in the 21st century, no giant enterprise can get rid of the infusion of capital.

According to the company's initial operation policy, although the return of funds is not fast, it is enough to ensure the smooth circulation of the entire company's capital chain, and the annual profit is a real cash flow, so the development of GQ operation in the past few years has never had the embarrassment of financial difficulties. At first, Qi Zimo, who was still naΓ―ve, was intoxicated by the company's team's strong business ability, and did not care too much about the company's growth rate. In his conservative thinking, it is never too late to expand when kung fu is honed to the extreme. GQ operations have been dormant for another year, during which Qi Zimo led the team to do a big business that shocked the United States and even the world. It's a pity that the thunder is heavy and the rain is small, and the growth rate of GQ operation at the end of the year is only ranked outside the top ten in the same industry, and it has been slapped in the face by some unknown ant companies.

Later, according to the analysis of the investigation report, it was learned that the templates of these operating companies that have sprung up are all highly imitating GQ operations, but they have made the introduction of capital an important part of the company's development plan at the beginning of planning. Using investors' money, they recruited employees aggressively, campaigned aggressively, and most intelligently targeted small and medium-sized businesses, grabbing market share and failing to achieve business success.

If there is good quality and cheap gold, why do you have to force the best diamonds, which is the main reason why GQ's operation has failed in the small and medium-sized business market.

That was the biggest mistake of Qi Zimo after entering the business field, and he also clearly realized that his Eastern conservative ideas would not work in the United States in the fast food era. He corrected his mistake in time and immediately abdicated to hand over the company's co-ordination to his first partner, Mr. Jack. Anyway, he didn't want to do that, just enough to focus on his own business development.

Mr. Jack, who took over the responsibility, did a good job, pulling a total of 400 million US dollars in investment on Wall Street within a month, and this fund also became a solid backing for the explosive growth of GQ's operations in 2012, and the annual profit margin of GQ's operations increased by 500% at the end of the year, shocking the whole United States. GQ operation executives, who tasted the sweetness, began to plan the company's listing under the leadership of Jack, but the plan was temporarily shelved by Qi Zimo on the grounds that the company needed to be integrated.

The company can develop rapidly, and Qi Zimo, as one of them, is of course overjoyed, and it is not an exaggeration to describe him as being in the limelight at this time. However, the company has expanded its business territory like a reckless, and there are a bunch of problems left behind. The quality of the business hidden behind the scenery has decreased significantly, the quality and ability of the follow-up maintenance personnel of the business are low, and the customer dissatisfaction has also increased. GQ operations are now like a bullet train that is about to be disjointed, and if it is allowed to expand blindly like this, it will definitely destroy the car and kill people. In this situation, the most important thing is to integrate the company, adjust the status, develop new employees, and digest the results.

Under Qi Zimo's strong veto, GQ operations in 2013 focused on enhancing the quality of employees and building the company's unique culture. Although the pace of development has slowed down, the company's cohesion and industry reputation have risen significantly, especially in the top 500 markets, and the business team led by Qi Zimo is a golden signboard.

In this way, GQ's operation gradually progressed under the overall planning of Jack's main and external Qi Zimo, and officially became the second largest operating company in North America in early 2014. While the whole company was excited, the radicals' ambition to dominate the world was once again on the rise, and the company's undercurrent was already unbearable when Qi Zimo returned to Asia, and the proposal to move the headquarters to the east became the fuse for the detonation of the bomb.

Although the planning of the eastward relocation of the headquarters lasted only three days, the result of the resolution was far from Qi Zimo's expected goal.

In fact, according to the procedure, the shares in Qi Zimo's hands can be said in one word. But in the final show of hands, only one hand in the room of nearly twenty people agreed to Qi Zimo's proposal, and in this case, if he went against the grain, he would completely put himself in opposition to all the employees.

Qi Zimo, who had no choice but to compromise, was finally given two options, either GQ Operations (USA) was independent, or the United States set up a branch, but it must be listed separately, and the listing plan was launched immediately.

That is to say, but the company knows that there will only be one result in the end, that is, the headquarters will move eastward, and the US branch will immediately go public. GQ Operations (USA) is completely unthinkable and not in the interests of any party, and GQ Operations without Qi Zimo is like a person losing his soul, no different from the walking dead.

On the morning of the resolution, Jack, as the first partner, and Qi Zimo had a long talk after five years, which successfully made Qi Zimo let go of the last bit of hesitation.

"General, do you know why I had to travel from Stanford to Boston five years ago to convince you, who had never met, to partner with you?"

In five years, Jack has transformed from a stunned young man in the mall to an elite executive, but the hippie smile on his face is still festive. Smiling all day long, revealing his harmless information to all kinds of girls anytime and anywhere.

Qi Zimo took the red wine glass handed over by the other party, shook it slightly, raised his eyebrows and said, "Didn't you come here?"

The scene of seeing Jack for the first time Qi Zimo still remembers that he returned to school slightly drunk from the celebration reception where the stock limit of the Baiers Department Store stock was up. When I walked downstairs to the dormitory, a huge body like a bear blocked the way. ON A DARK NIGHT, JACK BARED A MOUTHFUL OF WHITE TEETH AND STUPIDLY STEPPED FORWARD TO SAY TO ZIMO BY HIMSELF. He exclaimed, "My name is Jack Webb, and I'm from the Stanford Graduate School of Business, and I'm going to be a world-renowned partner with you. ”

"Pull it down, I'm not a reporter from the Business Daily, and a shit luck will treat you as God. Jack drank a glass of wine, smacked his lips, and praised it casually, good wine is different.

"I was touched by your words. When you said in an interview that it was a good start, I had a hunch that you would succeed because you didn't take fame and fortune seriously. Jack added another big glass to himself.

"That's why I didn't say a word about supporting you when you somehow chose to address your business in Los Angeles instead of New York, and I was stupidly singing the praises of your inheritance of your ancestors' indifferent and glorious cultural traditions. ”

Qi Zi silently looked at the scenery outside the window and listened without saying a word, he knew that Jack still had something to say in the back.

"But I hate it now, I hate to see your expression of taking fame and fortune inappropriately, I hate to see your expressionless appearance with the company's profits. That's tens of billions of dollars, how can you ignore those Franklins, and there are so many bits and pieces of seven billion people in the world? What the hell are you calming about?"

What a domineering question, if the questioner's expression can be MAN, the effect will be much more in place.

Qi Zimo pulled out two tissues with a helpless face and handed it to Jack, who had red eyes, a big man who was nearly two meters old man wanted to cry in front of you, and there was always one party who was extremely embarrassed.

"So I should sleep with Franklin in my arms every day?" Qi Zimo poured Jack a new glass of wine to stabilize his mood, in short, don't be so out of shape.

"You can sleep with Obama in your arms, but don't delay the company's listing. It's all about sharpening your knives, and if you delay it any longer, it will hurt morale, and when your Asian plan is implemented and then listed as a whole, the daylily will be cold. ”

The words are not coarse, Qi Zimo admits that Jack is right, and by the way, he feels that Jack's Chinese level has improved a lot.

Jack looked at Qi Zi's unmoved appearance, and a guess flashed through his mind.

"You wouldn't want to keep the company out of the public forever, would you?"

Qi Zimo reacted now, he really thought so 13 years ago, it doesn't matter the size of the company, as long as there is a place to display his talent.

"I said I thought so, will you scold me. Qi Zimo squinted and asked.

"No, it won't. "Jack is very talkative.

"I'm just going to beat you, perfectionist. Jack let out another big glass of red wine.

"OK, you go on, I'm about to be convinced by you. Qi Zi silently looked at the bottle that was about to run to the end of the bottle and said worriedly. Jack will go open the second bottle if he doesn't finish it quickly, so this thing won't be finished in three days.

"There's nothing to say, companies can only go public, we need global capital, and we need the world's attention. ”

"Immediately, right now! The market and the stock market are at the upper middle level, and we must seize this opportunity. ”

"If we want to be the first, we should be on top of the world, why should we cower and curl up on the mountainside. I'm not afraid of the storm, I'm afraid that I won't be able to shout out my own cry on the top of the mountain, and I will regret it for the rest of my life. ”

"General, believe me! You TM is the real talent, Zuckerberg, who is swaggering all over the world with dating software, can become a role model for the younger generation, why can't you? You are the top person in this industry, you will be the king of this industry in the future, let go of the shackles, I will send you to the throne." When he subconsciously took the wine glass to celebrate with Qi Zimo, he found that the wine glass was empty, and he poured the remaining wine into the glass in embarrassment.

"I can't be a king, I think you're suitable, and the agitation just now is comparable to that of Napoleon the Great. Qi Zimo clinked glasses with Jack and saluted his ambition.

"Okay, I should be the king of the world. Jack took a clean sip and slammed his glass on the floor, venting his anger.

Qi Zimo smiled and shook his head, and drank two-thirds of the red wine in one gulp, hanging the wine glass upside down.

"Okay, I'll book a plane ticket to New York tonight. Jack's big deal has finally come to fruition, and he desperately wants to vent his excitement.

"Eh, wait, isn't the matter of moving east to the east discussed?" Qi Zimo intercepted Jack, who was about to rush out.

"Does it matter if we don't discuss it? It's not a big deal. Contrary to his previous concentration, Jack didn't care at all.

It's not a big deal, one or two of you still swear to the death, Qi Zimo doesn't believe these nonsense.

"Where the headquarters is a symbol, that is, the place where the year-end summary meeting is held is different, the magic capital, Tokyo, Singapore, New York in today's globalization no matter where the meaning of the headquarters is similar, as long as it is a world-renowned first-tier city as you choose. The final decision is the performance of the reputation, from the day you chose to settle down in this land five years ago, Los Angeles is destined to be the main skill of GQ's operation, and you can't change that. Jack said as he searched Qi Zimo's wine cabinet, hugged four bottles and sandwiched one bottle in his armpit, and couldn't take it anymore.

"So confident?" Qi Zimo asked with an eyebrow, curious about the source of Jack's confidence.

Of course, don't forget that half of the world's population has always thought of New York as the capital of the United States. ”

Jack smiled confidently, opened the door and shouted loudly, and soon the company building resounded with deafening shouts, even through the thick solid wooden door, Qi Zimo could feel the joy of all the employees.

The plan of "moving the headquarters to the east, discussing the specific location after inspection, and listing the U.S. branch" was also decided, and Jack took the financial team to fly to New York first, and Qi Zimo joined him two days later.

Although there were preparations for going public two years ago, time has passed, and GQ's operation scale and expansion field are not comparable to those of two years ago, so all plans must be broken and restarted. As a result, there were endless meetings, endless data, and endless persuasion and suggestions, Qi Zimo, who had been working in New York for a week, was finally relieved because of business needs, and simply threw the burden to Jack completely.

Qi Zimo, who flew back to South Korea overnight, did not relax, and the long-awaited drama was waiting for him to start it in person.
