Bao Damin heard from a few old friends that it would be a big mistake to look at Liu Chen as a young man.
At present, Liu Chen's impression of Bao Damin is that he is humble, polite, young and promising.
"I admit that McKinsey & Company is among the best in the world and has the best level of business. Liu Chen did not hesitate to praise.
"Thank you for the compliment, there is still a lot to improve in our company. I don't know why, the more Liu Chen commented on their company, the more unsteady Bao Damin's heart became.
Liu Chen's eyes flashed with light, and he said to Bao Damin: "As the person in charge of Asia, I think Mr. Bao Damin should have felt a headache recently. β
Bao Damin was shocked, how could Liu Chen know this?
Liu Chen took the look of surprise in Bao Damin's eyes and continued: "McKinsey & Company has business all over the world, and Mr. Bao Damin, as the head of Asia, must be under a lot of pressure if the performance in Asia is not good. β
"It seems that Mr. Liu Chen has done a lot of homework for our company. Bao Damin smiled, the cooperation had just begun to be discussed, and Liu Chen's performance had already shocked him.
Liu Chen said: "I can't talk about doing homework, but I just understand it a little." β
Although McKinsey & Company is a global company, it does not make much sense to evaluate him from a global scale, because the performance of different regions is basically independent, and no matter how good the business in other regions is, it cannot cover up the decline of the Chinese region. Liu Chen's evaluation can be described as hitting the nail on the head, and Bao Damin's body almost stood up when he heard it.
However, the company's shortcomings were exposed on the spot, and Bao Damin's face was still a little unsightly.
"I now finally understand why those people would say that if they look at you as a young person, they would be very wrong. Bao Damin still praised, and it was a compliment from the heart.
Liu Chen shook his head and said, "No, no, Mr. Bao Damin, I didn't listen to you praise me today, what I care about is cooperation." β
Bao Damin was a little confused by Liu Chen: "Since Mr. Liu Chen already knows that our McKinsey Huaxia performance has declined seriously, and our competitor Manhattan has more momentum, why do you choose us." β
"It's very simple, McKinsey Huaxia exists, Manhattan Huaxia also exists, and I pay more attention to long-term considerations, so I chose McKinsey, I believe McKinsey is our best choice to dominate e-commerce. Liu Chen's gaze met with Bao Damin's.
After a short silence, Bao Damin said: "It seems that Mr. Liu Chen has a way to help us solve the serious decline in McKinsey China's performance. β
"That's right. Liu Chen replied directly.
Bao Damin nodded and said, "Please speak." β
"McKinsey has a strong style of American strategic consulting firm since it entered Huaxia, it refuses to localize, refuses to use the perspective of Huaxia to gentleman the problem of Chinese enterprises, always thinks that this problem has been experienced by companies in the United States, American business is so developed, the world's top 1, we McKinsey can even solve the case in the United States, you Huaxia is so backward in the market system, the enterprise is too lo, you only need to copy the solution of the American case, and solve it for you in minutes. As for the uniqueness of the Chinese market, the uniqueness of the Chinese enterprise, don't-care. β
Liu Chen spoke very straightforwardly, without beating around the bush, although it was a little ugly, but it was also very practical.
At least, Bao Damin didn't get angry when he heard it, but felt that it made sense.
Perhaps, this is one of the reasons why he will become the global president of McKinsey in the future.
"What Mr. Liu Chen said is very reasonable, so how to solve the problem when it is found?" Bao Damin asked seriously.
"It's very simple, cooperating with our e-commerce company is an opportunity for McKinsey to rejuvenate China. Liu Chen's answer was still so concise.
"Mr. Liu Chen, if your method is really effective, I can ask the headquarters, and in the future, we can give a half-discount to McKinsey and Company for your case of dominating e-commerce. "Damin is also a very cheerful person.
Liu Chen stood up and stretched out his hand with a smile.
The cooperation conversation went very smoothly, but Liu Chen and Bao Damin still talked for a whole afternoon, Liu Chen told a lot of his own independent opinions, Bao Damin listened with relish, Bao Damin also analyzed some of the current problems of Ba e-commerce from a professional point of view, and still the overall development direction of the future, and in the general direction, it is roughly the same as Liu Chen's idea, so Liu Chen is also very relieved to cooperate with Bao Damin.
Although he himself is a business genius, genius is not omnipotent, and it is better to do it professionally in professional matters.
If the company asked Liu Chen to do everything, Liu Chen would rather shut down all these companies, which was not the life he wanted.
You need a lot of money, but you can't be tied down because of money.
After ending the conversation with Bao Damin, everyone had dinner together, and Bao Damin proposed to visit him in person another day, to which Liu Chen agreed with a smile.
After all, Barman is going to become the global president of McKinsey in the future, and building a good relationship with such a person will be of great help to his business empire.
"Mr. Liu, you are so amazing, you saved the company 10 million US dollars in just a few words. After ending the conversation, Cao Rong looked at Liu Chen with a look of admiration and said, you know, McKinsey's fees are notoriously expensive in the industry.
The bigger the company, the higher the fee, such as the size of the e-commerce company, McKinsey charges up to 20 million US dollars, as for those Fortune 500 companies, not to mention.
"Cao Rong, you remember, doing business, is to meet each other's needs, originally we are McKinsey customers, but Bao Damin also has his own needs, as long as we can meet Bao Damin's needs, then he can also become our customers, always pay attention to some potential customers, it is likely that these people will be able to create income for us in the future. Liu Chen said to Cao Rong beside him as he walked.
"Wait, I'll write down what you said. Cao Rong said and took out a pen and paper from her bag, she had been recording when Liu Chen was talking to Bao Damin just now.
"It's just a few words, just remember. β
"No, haven't you heard a sentence? A good memory is better than a bad pen. β
Liu Chen sighed, Cao Rong is very capable and makes progress very quickly, but she lacks a little absolute self-confidence, it is precisely this that she can't be as flexible as Gong Hui, and he has never been able to completely let go of the e-commerce company.
