Chapter 143: Li Mengyuan

After solving the matter of the company's headquarters building, Lin Feng felt very happy and raised his hand to look at his watch. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

smiled at Wang Hao: "Lao Wang, there is not enough time, after meeting the candidate for Menglong's new CFO, I will talk to you about FF and technology platform......." ā€

Wang Hao nodded, he was now the same as Lin Feng, most of his energy was already on Fengxing's side, and he hardly talked much about Menglong's affairs. After all, from a technical point of view, Menglong's SP system platform is very mature and does not have too many challenges.

Lin Feng asked Li Dong again: "Joe, this Li Mengyuan is your finalized candidate, before you meet anyone, you can tell me a brief one." ā€

Li Dong replied: "Lin Dong, in fact, it was not only you who started thinking about this issue in the video conference yesterday...... From the day I took over as CEO, I was looking for a CFO to succeed me, after all, a qualified CFO is more important to the company than the COO. The headhunter also helped me select several candidates, including investment banks and Big Four accounting firms. There are several main reasons why I think this Li Mengyuan is more suitable. ā€

She has a very beautiful resume: she graduated from the accounting department of Northern University, the university of Warwick (University of Warwick) in the United Kingdom (University of Warwick) Master of Accounting and Finance, worked in KPMG in Hong Kong for 5 years, became an audit manager, and in 2001, came to Beijing PricewaterhouseCoopers and was promoted to audit partner. She is also a fellow member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants and can be said to have sufficient resume and professionalism as the CFO of the company. ā€

Lin Feng became interested: "Hey, it's still my senior sister...... However, there are more sessions in between, and I shouldn't have seen it in school. "Pick up your resume and look at the photo on it.

Judging from the photos on her resume, Li Mengyuan looks delicate, wears a black-framed glasses, and looks very intellectual.

Li Dong nodded and smiled: "Not bad." She graduated from Northern University in 1995, six classes of ...... before you. ā€

"I continue to talk about her strengths: second, she has participated in many projects in the Internet and new economy fields, including TOM Online's listing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and NetEase's listing on the NASDAQ, which shows that she has a better understanding of the business model of TMT (Technology, Media, Telecom) companies. ā€

"Third, compared to the other candidates, she is relatively young, only 30 years old this year, Menglong is a young team, she is more conducive to integration. ā€

"I had a conversation with her once before, and I was deeply impressed, rational, professional, rigorous, and most importantly, very intelligent, able to understand what I mean quickly, which also shows that she has high emotional intelligence. Overall, I think she's going to be a good CFO. ā€

Lin Feng smiled: "Wow, Joe, it seems that you have a very good impression of this Li Mengyuan! I rarely hear you praise someone like this...... , Okay, it's almost time, I'll meet this Li Mengyuan too. ā€

While talking, Ren Jie knocked on the door and came in, and Li Mengyuan arrived.

…………

Li Dong and Wang Hao said goodbye and left.

Lin Feng changed the tea and personally made tea for Li Mengyuan, who was invited into the chairman's office by Ren Jie.

"Jennifer, you should be more accustomed to being called like this, our company's CEO, Mr. Li Dong, likes us to call him Joe. Come, please have tea, let's talk casually. ā€œ

Li Mengyuan looks younger than her actual age, mainly because her figure is relatively petite, about 1.6 meters, her hair is high and coiled up at the back of her head, meticulous, and her black square-framed glasses are very in line with Lin Feng's perception of the four major professionals. Today she wore a light yellow Chanel suit, showing that she still attaches great importance to meeting Lin Feng.

Hearing this, she smiled and took the teacup handed by Lin Feng: "Thank you, Mr. Lin, you can call me Jennifer, this is a habit developed in Hong Kong, you know, although it has been back for many years, everyone works in our accounting firm in an English environment, speaking of which sometimes when I return to China, someone calls me Ms. Li, and I have to wait for a long time to react." ā€

Lin Feng smiled, Li Mengyuan really had a high EQ as Li Dong said, and a seemingly casual explanation shortened the distance between the two.

"Okay, Jennifer, don't be so polite, speaking of which, I'm still your junior. ā€

At the moment, the two were not in a hurry to talk about the company's business, but talked a lot about Northern University.

The accounting major and the law major both belong to the School of Economics and Management, and the two really have a lot of teachers in common.

"Jennifer, I'm curious, as far as I know, to be promoted to a partner in a top international accounting firm like the Big Four, it can be said that there are many opportunities to choose from, why would you be interested in Menglong? ā€

Li Mengyuan smiled and shook her head: "Mr. Lin, you are too modest, Menglong now has a market value of more than 3 billion US dollars, which is not a small company." Actually, I am very optimistic about the team of Menglong...... , or the team of Menglong and Fengxing, that is, the golden combination of you, Joe, and Mr. Wang. ā€

Lin Feng smiled and asked, "Is there such a thing as a golden combination?"

Li Mengyuan nodded affirmatively: "Of course, if you conduct a more in-depth analysis and research on Menglong Company, including Fengxing Company, you will find that the success of these two companies is no accident. Your strategic vision, Joe's management and capital operation, and Mr. Wang's development at the technical level are all the top level among domestic companies. The combination of the three of you, I don't think it's an exaggeration, no matter what industry you enter, you will quickly stand out. From Menglong to Fengxing, a series of successful facts also prove that you are worthy of the title of golden combination. ā€

"If I'm going to move from the professional field to the enterprise, I want to be able to join a good team, not only to give full play to my talents, but also to learn and grow from the partners in the team. In this respect, the team of Menglong is very attractive to me. ā€

Lin Feng laughed and said: "Jennifer, I'm a little embarrassed to praise me!Okay, I admit that our team is indeed very good, so, Jennifer, how much do you know about Menglong's business? In addition, what do you think is the most important job as Menglong's CFO at present?"

This is the time to enter the formal interview process.

In fact, at the CFO level, it is no longer appropriate to call it an interview, but it should be said that the two people communicate and test each other to see if they can get consensus at more levels.

Li Mengyuan smiled and said: "I think that Mr. Lin is not looking for a CFO of Menglong Company, but the CFO of the entire group including Menglong and Fengxing in the future, right?

Lin Feng was stunned, he first listed Menglong, and now the development is popular, and many people speculate that he will continue to list Fengxing in the future.

It will be speculated that he may delist Menglong in the future and merge with Fengxing into a group, so far only Li Dong. Unexpectedly, this Li Mengyuan actually saw his intentions.

This is interesting, Li Dong is because he understands all the company's strategies, so he can vaguely feel it from his layout. If Li Mengyuan only saw it from some clues in the outside world, this person's strategic vision would be very high!

Lin Feng didn't show any different color on the surface, and looked at Li Mengyuan with a smile: "It's okay, Jennifer, you can say whatever you want, don't be limited." ā€

Li Mengyuan was actually observing Lin Feng carefully, but the young junior in front of him, one of the richest people in China, was unexpectedly deep, and he couldn't see his mind at all.

Li Mengyuan cheered up and decided to show her hand and conquer this future boss.

"Okay, Mr. Lin, let me talk about it briefly. ā€

"There are three financial ABCs in the world. A is an auditor, B is a banker, C is a controller, and is the person who has the ability to control the entire business. I position myself as a class C. A good financial advisor is not only limited to "after-the-fact accounting", but also follows up the whole process from pre-decision to final closure. ā€

"An excellent century-old enterprise must build a "financial sharing center" of the enterprise, and need to pay more attention to the entire business chain, and the CFO that the company needs should be a financial person who can provide relevant suggestions for the analysis and management decisions of the company's management team and board of directors, not just those in the past, pure "Mr. Bookkeeper". ā€

"If you look at Menglong simply, because the wireless value-added business is currently relatively mature and the business model is clear, doing a good job in financial management and cash flow balance can ensure the healthy development of the company's business, to be honest, it is not very challenging. But I'm sure you're not the one to settle for that. It can be seen from the recent development of new Internet business that Fengxing has a great career blueprint in your heart!"

"In fact, you, as well as Menglong and Fengxing, are in great need of a person who controls the company's financial control and capital operation at this stage, and Joe should have been very suitable, but he is now the CEO of the company, and his main energy has turned to company management. She said casually, many of them were things that Lin Feng had been thinking about for a long time, and she couldn't help but be a little secretly frightened.

"As a CFO, you have jurisdiction over the CIO, the Controller, and the Treasurer. Achieving the strategic goals and long-term development of the enterprise through resource allocation should be one of the important managers of the enterprise strategy, which requires great professionalism and dedication to help the company run smoothly and the business continues to grow. ā€

"To use a metaphor, if you compare a company to a person, the CFO has the same amount of finance and funds as the blood in the human body, and the CFO is the heart, which controls the flow of blood, so that every part of the human body gets a proper blood supply, and keeps the blood healthy and fluid. In addition, feedback information to the brain, that is, the company's management team, and you at any time, to ensure that the brain has a comprehensive understanding of the body and a clear ....... ā€

"Mr. Lin, I wonder if my perception meets your expectations for CFO?"

Lin Feng was indeed a little impressed by the woman in front of him who spoke lightly and had a calm bearing.

These elites who graduated from prestigious schools, studied abroad, and came from top accounting firms are indeed elites!

No wonder Li Dong is very optimistic about her, not to mention anything else, her strategic vision and overall situation are very surprising to Lin Feng.

Li Dong said that she would be a very good CFO, and now Lin Feng thinks so.

Looking at Li Mengyuan with an appreciative eye, Lin Feng smiled.

"Jennifer, how soon will you be on the board?"
