For listed companies, professional board secretaries are regarded as foreign aid, which is definitely not as safe as their own families, but there is no shortage of Country Garden, which uses sons-in-law or daughters-in-law to prepare for the establishment of listing offices.

Although it is certainly not as professional as a professional board secretary, at least it is your own family, and it is safe to use.

Chen Qiaoshan knew very well in his heart that it would definitely be difficult to persuade Dong Ying to join.

The first is the issue of salary, and now I want to hire a professional secretary of the board of directors, and one million is just the starting price.

Although the IPO of most companies is not smooth, it is normal to delay for two or three years at every turn, and there are many people who die in the middle of the process, but it does not have much impact on the senior board secretary.

The more critical problem is that not everyone has the determination to change careers halfway.

Rushing into an unfamiliar industry, everything has to start over, and those who dare to make this choice in their careers must be a small number of people.

"Mr. Chen, why did you find me?" Obviously, the doubts in Dong Ying's heart have not been resolved.

"Because you're the best. Chen Qiaoshan knew that this reason was not very convincing, but he was not in a hurry to explain.

Dong Ying was very dissatisfied with this answer, she said: "I don't know anything about the Internet, and I have never been in contact with the security industry, so your invitation is a bit hasty, right?"

"Cyber security is still a blank market, there are no strong competitors, even in the face of foreign counterparts, NSFOCUS does not fall behind at all, and has a great advantage in the industry. ”

Chen Qiaoshan explained two sentences, and after a change of words, he said again: "Director Dong, to digress, how long can the work of a professional board secretary be done, five years or ten years?"

Dong Ying was silent, which was also the most worrying question in her heart.

With the successful landing of the small and medium-sized board on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange, the listing of enterprises has also entered a golden age.

The two main boards of Shanghai and Shenzhen, plus the small and medium-sized boards, as well as the gem that frequently rumors, will definitely have a blowout in the IPO army.

In Jiangsu and Zhejiang alone, there have been 10 companies that have completed IPOs this year, and more in Guangdong Province, more than 15 companies, at this rate, there will be more and more practitioners.

Dong Ying knows very well in her heart that there have been rumors in the market that the practice of 0.5% equity awards has been loosened, and there is no secret in the market, and it may not be long before she can only accept a new salary package.

As a result, the gold content of professional board secretaries has plummeted, although they are not worried about finding a home, but from the perspective of career development, they have lost the aura of the past.

Dong Ying thought that maybe it would be a good choice to change careers, and after thinking about it, she took the initiative to ask, "What can I do for NSFOCUS?"

Hearing this question, Chen Qiaoshan was overjoyed, and it seemed that Dong Ying was a little loose.

"NSFOCUS's main customers are governments, carriers, financial and Internet companies, and the R&D team has no need to worry at all, as there are many returnees in the core staff, many of whom are top students from Tsinghua University and Peking University, and we are preparing to continue to expand the R&D team. ”

Anyway, there is no proof of death, Chen Qiaoshan is vigorously touted.

There are now a total of six people in the Green Alliance with him, and there is no real field without a single ridge of land, and the whole is a grass team.

There must be a doctor, but Qingbei's high-level students have to count him to make up for it, Chen Qiaoshan is desperately fooling at this time, and it is only serious to dig people over first, "Director Dong, if you are willing to join, we would like to ask you to be responsible for market operations and government public relations, which should not be beyond your ability." ”

The so-called government relations is commonly known as the director of government relations, CGO.

This position is different from public relations, and is very common in industries such as the Internet, security, and medicine, and is mainly responsible for coordinating internal and external public relations and establishing long-term good communication channels with relevant government agencies.

Chen Qiaoshan knows that cyber security is a sensitive industry, and this aspect of the problem needs to be dealt with in particular.

Dong Ying was a little hesitant, she has been in the securities industry for so many years, and she has dealt with the contacts of major securities firms and the Shanghai and Shenzhen stock exchanges, and she has no accumulation of operations and government relations at all, "Mr. Chen, I have been working in the securities industry for a long time, and I am afraid that there is nothing I can do about it." ”

"If you don't try, how do you know if it's going to work? Chen Qiaoshan did not give up, paused, and continued: "Our focus in the first stage is to lay out the financial and Internet industries, the former is your old business, if this market can be done, the company can gain a firm foothold in the security market, and the follow-up development is much easier." ”

Chen Qiaoshan was very patient, and he explained in detail the development prospects of NSFOCUS in the next two years, but it did not dispel Dong Ying's doubts.

This is also reasonable, after all, it is an unfamiliar industry, and not everyone has the courage to change careers after the age of forty.

"Director Dong, this is a preliminary personnel contract, you can take a look first, and you can communicate if you have any questions. Chen Qiaoshan didn't expect to reach an agreement today, he took out the employment contract that had been drawn up a long time ago and handed it over, along with an assessment report of the security market.

Dong Ying's salary in the past was not expensive, but Chen Qiaoshan did not give too outrageous treatment, and the annual salary of 120,000 yuan has increased by one-third compared with Han's Laser.

Chen Qiaoshan knew in his heart that this was not enough to convince Dong Ying to join, so he gave a 5% option, and the exercise price was negligible.

At present, NSFOCUS's options are not worth a few dollars, but no one can say for sure in the future, whether they are worthless or worth a thousand dollars, it depends on the individual's choice.

Dong Ying didn't say anything more, and after briefly dealing with lunch, the two separated.

Before leaving, Chen Qiaoshan said deliberately: "Director Dong, I will return to Yanjing on the 7th, hoping to get an exact reply before leaving." ”

"I'll think about it. ”

……

It's been a week since he came to Hong Kong, and it's rare to have a break, Chen Qiaoshan was about to take a look around, but before he could pick out a place, he received a call from Liu Chang.

"Sister Chang, why are you calling me now?"

"What, you're still working?"

Chen Qiaoshan said with a smile: "That's it, it's not that you don't know, working in an investment bank, it's normal to work 100 hours a week." ”

"Then flicker, I don't know you yet, I'm still watching the military parade in the morning, but I'm busy at this time, I don't take snacks when I lie, and someone has to believe it when I say it. Liu Chang didn't save any face, and directly exposed it.

Through the microphone, Chen Qiaoshan could still faintly hear Yan Xiaoqin's voice, and he smiled: "You are looking at the photos I took in the morning, how is my photography technique, do you need to send a copy to your mailbox?"

"Alright, don't show off, it's better to do more serious things when you have time. Liu Chang was very dissatisfied with him going to Goldman Sachs for an internship at this time.

With Chen Qiaoshan's net worth, it is completely superfluous, not to mention that the stationmaster conference is in intense preparations, this guy is good, he is the shopkeeper, and Liu Chang is helpless.

"Sister Chang, tell me, what is the matter with me?"

"Qingke Company contacted us and wanted to ask you to give a speech, no, the boss is not there, and I don't dare to agree casually. ”

Chen Qiaoshan thought for a while, and didn't remember dealing with this company, "Which Qingke, why am I not impressed?"

Liu Chang reminded with a smile: "Qingke Venture Capital, do you know now?"

Chen Qiaoshan understands that the scale of Qingke Venture Capital is not large, but it is very famous in the venture capital circle, and it is the most famous financing intermediary platform in the industry today.

China's local venture capital has just started, but Qingke is not the first to do a financing platform, the first in China is SinoBIT, China Venture Network.

SinoBIT was Qingke's biggest competitor at the beginning, and there were three founders, one of whom was named Zhang Lei, who may not know much, and that was the founder of Hillhouse Capital in the future.

Compared with his achievements in the investment world, Zhang Lei has always been very low-key, and if it weren't for the scandal with Peng Yuyan, he would hardly be known to the outside world.

Zhang Lei's most famous investment project is 05, just after returning from Yale with a large amount of money, he bought a large number of Tencent shares, and accumulated more than 200 times the return from it.

Chen Qiaoshan pondered that if he could make a profit on crude oil futures this time, he might also be able to make a heavy bet on Hong Kong stocks.

"Hey, what do you want?" Coldly, Yan Xiaoqin's voice came from the microphone.

Chen Qiaoshan realized that he was distracted, "Thinking of something irrelevant, what about Sister Chang?"

"She went out. Yan Xiaoqin looked at the door with the phone, and said angrily: "Why, you don't want to talk to me, then you wait, I'll call her back." ”

Chen Qiaoshan couldn't help crying and laughing: "Look at what you said, I don't want to deal with her, either to spend money or to ask me for money to spend, it's not enough for me to bother all day." ”

"How can you be the boss like this. Yan Xiaoqin couldn't help laughing, "You wait, I'll tell you the truth in a while." ”

The two laughed a few words, and Chen Qiaoshan asked about Qingke's situation again.

"I know about this, there is a Qingke forum in Zhongguancun on the 12th, the scale seems to be not small, it is in the newspaper, Kangsheng also received an invitation, the organizer wants to invite us to talk about the experience of financing, Sister Chang said that Qingke is very influential, and the financing may be used in the future, how do you think we reply to others?"

"Go, of course. ”

Chen Qiaoshan is not going for financing, on the contrary, he wants to find some more potential investment projects.

It's the second half of '04, and some small unicorns have begun to sprout.

Although the reputation of Qingke Venture Capital is not obvious, the financing platform has been built, which has become the first choice of many entrepreneurs and an important channel for investors to select projects.

Yan Xiaoqin thought of something else, she asked, "Then what should we do when we go home, do we still need to book tickets?"

Peking University's military training is scheduled for the summer vacation of the freshman year, starting from August 15th, for half a month, Chen Qiaoshan can escape, Yan Xiaoqin must participate, so he can't stay at home for two days.

Chen Qiaoshan thought for a while, "That's it, the stationmaster meeting is over, let's go, I'll rush back before the 12th, you stay at home for a few more days, and come back before the military training." ”
