Chapter 337: A Natural Lies
readx; In order to show the caution of signing a contract with Unicom this time, Shi Lei even transferred He Cailan, who has been assigned to Russia and the CIS to expand international business, of course, there will be no shortage of all the heavyweights of the current Stone Group, but the laboratory in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, although there is also David who is the chief technology officer and director of the R&D center? Langley led the core technical team to Pingjing to attend the signing ceremony, but Qin Mubei shirked and said that he took this opportunity to take a few days off and traveled to small cities in some small European countries, which made Shi Lei very uncomfortable. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info originally thought that there would always be a chance to meet Qin Mubei this time, although the two of them couldn't hug for a long time after meeting like in that life, but even if it was a glimpse, Shi Lei would feel satisfied. It's been two years since he was reborn, and he really misses Qin Mubei a little, but Qin Mubei, like that life, is too much of a posthumous reader, so that until now Shi Lei hasn't had a chance to see her, and I don't know if she is still as pale as that life.
I don't seem to think that the senior management lineup of Stone Group is very strong, although there are quite a few professional managers who are quite famous in China and even in the world, but they don't seem to attract too much attention. However, when all these people gathered, the media suddenly found that it seemed that Stone Group was taking a completely different path from other large IT companies.
Ordinary large IT companies focus on cultivating their own management talents, and almost all the people in management positions are technical personnel, due to age and various factors, they are far away from their best positions, and appear in management positions. However, the stone group is completely different, the technical personnel do not interfere in the management of the group at all, they are only under the management of different professional managers at all levels, in an orderly manner according to their best field to carry out scientific and technological research and development work, and the management of the stone group, except for a very few such as Jiang Fengyue, Zhu Feng and Sun Jun such as the company's veteran level staff, is from the ordinary bottom management to the middle management and even the position of senior executives, the rest of the management positions, It turned out that all of them were managers recruited by Stone Group from other companies through headhunting companies in the past two years.
Isn't the investor of Stone Group worried about problems with its management? You must know that the domestic professional manager environment is far less perfect than that in the world, and domestic enterprises are more inclined to family management, so they are more willing to cultivate their own management talents, rather than copying them from other companies. Of course, there is no problem in appointing these professional managers in some positions, but the media found that in the Stone Group, there is no distinction between core positions and key positions, except for a few company veterans who hold some power, the rest of the management positions, regardless of size, are held by thorough professional managers. What if a certain company poached all these professional managers at once, what should Shi Lei do?
As the business management consulting company of Stone Group, Accenture and McKinsey naturally have to send people over in such a situation. As a result, many reporters who thought of this gathered around the two senior managers sent by Accenture and McKinsey and asked them such questions.
To this, a senior manager at McKinsey replied: "This is a matter of strategy formulation for the Stone Group, and we are only responsible for proposing to the Board of Directors the corporate management plan that we believe is most suitable, whether to adopt it or not, and which parts to adopt, and these are ultimately up to the Board of Directors of the Stone Group to decide." So, I'm afraid we can't answer your questions in this regard. You may wish to ask Mr. Duan Qinglai, the CEO of Stone Group. ”
Duan Qinglai, MBA background from an Ivy League school in the United States, has many years of entrepreneurial and business management experience in Silicon Valley, after joining Microsoft, he became a senior manager of Microsoft's network environment comprehensive laboratory, and was later transferred back to Asia to become the vice president of Microsoft China.
The senior manager at McKinsey seems to have given a very good piece of advice, but Duan Qinglai is a professional manager himself, although he is the chief executive officer, how can he ask him such a question? Could it be that these reporters went to ask Duan Qinglai and asked him if he would take professional managers from various key positions in the Stone Group to join him? This is in Hongguoguo's questioning Duan Qinglai's profession.
Just when the reporters thought that the senior manager of McKinsey was too cunning and wanted to ask the senior manager of Accenture again, a gentle but infectious voice sounded behind them.
"The cost of the management of the Stone Digging Group is too great, and the salary offered by the Stone Group may not be the highest for the same position in the same industry in China, but it is definitely enough to challenge the surname. Not to mention that any company in China can have such the strength to eat up so many managers at once, even if someone really wants to use this way to attack the stone group, they can only end up with more gains than losses. ”
The reporters turned around and saw a face they were not familiar with, young and a little surprised, and listening to the meaning of his words, as if he knew a lot about the Stone Group, "May I ask this gentleman, ...... you?" A reporter immediately asked.
The young man smiled: "I am an ordinary employee of the strategy department of the Stone Group. ”
The reporters were clearly disappointed by the young man's identity, but the two senior managers at McKinsey and Accenture smiled at each other and smiled a little weirdly. These reporters didn't know this young man, but they knew very well that this young man was the real owner of the Stone Group - Shi Lei.
"Actually, if you ask any middle-level or above manager of the Stone Group, they will be able to answer you." Shi Lei saw the disappointment of those reporters, and did not think it was angry, and added with a smile: "It is precisely because the management of our Stone Group is a regular professional manager, so they are the least likely to be poached by other companies." In the IT industry, the competition between different companies is quite cruel, and it is indeed the most labor-saving means to directly poach people from a position in other companies with a high salary that cannot be refused, but our managers usually only stay on the surface of the understanding of technology, and the managers of the Stone Group are not the ideal target for poaching other companies. Do you think that's the truth? ”
Those reporters were slightly stunned, then understood what Shi Lei meant, and nodded one after another. Indeed, the reason why there is a tendency to poach each other within the IT industry is that those managers themselves are trained from technical personnel, and they understand technology first. Stone Group is not the case, most of them are Accenture and McKinsey advice, and then through the headhunters to recruit professional managers, they may be engaged in the management of IT-related industries, but they do not have a thorough understanding of technology, so it is meaningless for other companies to spend higher salaries to poach.
"Then you Stone Group have not been worried, will appointing these professional managers whose understanding of technology only stays on the surface cause mismanagement?" Another reporter asked a stupid question, but this is what Shi Lei is happy to see, and he has successfully made these reporters' ideas follow him.
"There is a specialization in the art industry, and when it comes to the technical level, there will naturally be specialized technical personnel to cooperate. It is a real waste of talent to let technical personnel engage in business management that they are not good at. How many talented programmers are there because they have to transform into business management after they reach a certain level? Of course, transformation doesn't necessarily have to fail, but it does come with the risk of failure, and why bother with the need for a better way to solve it? Let technology belong to technology and operation to management, which has always been the core value concept of our stone group's enterprise management. There is no need to give too much power to technical personnel, just give them enough generous remuneration, they will understand, and they will understand that there are far better than them to do business surname management talents, and these technical talents to stay in technical positions is also the greatest value of their talents. ”
Reporters recorded Shi Lei's words one after another, and one reporter asked: "Sir, who are you?" Can we think that your words are sending a kind advice to domestic IT companies? ”
"As I said, I'm just a small staff member in the strategy department of Stone Group, and it doesn't matter. I am also not in a position to advise anyone, everything I have just said is the core value of our group in terms of talent management. Let technology belong to technology, and business to management, this sentence is adapted from the "Bible? The words of the New Testament have always been hung on the wall of the office of the Strategy Department of our Stone Group, and we can see this sentence every day when we walk into the office. ”
The reporters nodded one after another, and began to believe Shi Lei's words, but the two senior managers looked even more strange, and they had been to the headquarters of the Stone Group so many times, and they had never heard of any strategy department. Where else is there a strategy department. That's fine, not having this department is also a helpless move made by Shi Lei in order to hide his identity. It's just that there is such a slogan hanging on the wall of the office, this lie Shi Lei is really natural, is it completely fooling these reporters as idiots.
But in any case, Shi Lei's fooling is still very successful, the reporters have obviously believed Shi Lei's words, although they have not been able to get something from the mouths of more important managers, but they have learned the business philosophy of the Stone Group, just by virtue of Shi Leicai's words, it will be a very attractive report to be published in the newspaper as it is. It's a pity that it's not exclusive, but all peers got the news.
Originally, some reporters wanted to pull Shi Lei to do a separate interview, but the representative of Unicom at the door finally appeared, which attracted the attention of almost everyone at once.
Because this project can be said to be promoted by Fang Zida, he was doing it from beginning to end, so now that it is completed, Unicom handed over the project to him, and let him become the chief engineer of the project, and it is a matter of course to be responsible for the entire project.
At today's signing ceremony, Unicom did not send a too luxurious lineup, but it was extremely simple for Fang Zida to attend alone, as if they wanted to use their simplicity to reflect the luxury lineup of the Stone Group.
In fact, people with a heart have long discovered this, not only Unicom, but even Datang is very low-key today, just let the project responsible team participate in this signing ceremony, and did not send a too strong lineup. This is a bit shabby for this project, the second largest supplier in cooperation with Unicom.
The low-key of Unicom and Datang seems to be deliberately setting off the fanfare of the Stone Group, and some people with a heart have already seen something from this point. Although they were already calloused by the Stone Group during this time, they didn't really pay attention to the company. In other words, the practitioners in the same industry did not raise the stone group to a point where they needed to see it as a competitor. However, because of the low profile of Unicom and Datang, they found that these two companies seem to be intentionally or unintentionally trying to raise the reputation of Stone Group in China and even the status of the industry, although this is also one of the strategic needs of project cooperation, but it is far from reaching such a cautious point. All this seems to show that Stone Group not only has an extremely strong backer behind it, but also their technical strength is really worthy of the attention of the same industry.
When Fang Zida came in, in addition to a few media and middle-level managers of Unicom who were already familiar to his peers, there was also a girl with a fresh face, even on such a grand occasion, she was actually just wearing a simple pair of jeans, and her upper body was a long-sleeved white shirt, spotless, with a quiet temperament, holding a folder in her hand, like a hibiscus out of the water, she followed behind Fang Zida like a hibiscus out of the water.
"Who is this girl?" Many people silently raised this question in their hearts, but in fact, not only them, but even the members of Fang Zida's Unicom didn't know anything about the beautiful girl who was following Fang Zida.
Today is the signing ceremony, whether Unicom has anything to do with the project or not, almost all of them arrived at the company in advance, they know how important the company is to this project, and in fact, this is indeed a sign that Unicom is about to break the monopoly pattern of telecommunications in domestic network communications, they can't help but be excited, even if it has nothing to do with this project for the time being, but it can also be imagined, with the project launched, their salaries in the next few years will naturally rise, At this time, no one will account for the earlier arrival of the company.
At about nine o'clock, a girl wearing jeans and a white shirt appeared in the lobby on the first floor of the Unicom headquarters building, and then she explained to the reception lady that she was looking for Fang Zida. The front desk lady knew that Fang Zida was going to attend the signing ceremony today, and she must have canceled all the arrangements, but she still politely asked about the girl's intentions, and when she heard the girl unswervingly say that she must see Fang Zida, the front desk lady was still a little displeased. But of course, it won't be on her face, just let the girl sit on the sofa next to her for a while, she contacted the secretary of the general manager's office unhurriedly, and the other party didn't take it too seriously, so that Fang Zida didn't know about someone looking for him almost an hour later.
And for almost an hour, the girl has been maintaining a quiet posture, sitting on the sofa in the lobby, waiting patiently for the front desk lady to give her final reply. When Fang Zida finally heard the secretary of the general manager's office inadvertently mention that a girl came to him, he immediately announced that the short meeting that was about to start was suspended, and hurriedly took the elevator to the lobby on the first floor to greet the girl in person.
Seeing Fang Zida appear in the lobby and greet the girl in person with a smile on her face, the lady at the front desk finally realized that she seemed to have made a mistake, but after the girl shook hands with Fang Zida, she didn't accuse her of anything, and she didn't even seem to realize that the front desk lady was cold to her just now, but just followed Fang Zida upstairs.
At this moment, everyone who had seen the girl in the lobby was guessing who this girl was!
Of course, this girl is Han Xiaoyuan, today is the time when Fang Zida arranged for her to enter Unicom as an assistant for him on the first day, and the reason why it was arranged at such a time was also the result of his discussion with Shi Lei. Since it is to let Han Xiaoyuan get in touch with this aspect of management work, it is not just to let her serve as an ordinary assistant, but to let Han Xiaoyuan enter the mode of a manager from the beginning. Of course, it doesn't make her involved in real management, after all, she is not a real employee of Unicom, but only came to Unicom to learn. Because of this, after discussing with Shi Lei, Fang Zida decided to let Han Xiaoyuan follow Fang Zida's side closely, let her personally substitute into Fang Zida's role, and quickly understand how Fang Zida manages the company, manages the project, and manages everything in his hands in a mode that is only ten centimeters away from Fang Zida. This helps Han Xiaoyuan adapt to the identity of a manager as quickly as possible, and successfully simulates the psychological state of a manager like Fang Zida.
Fang Zida just introduced to everyone, this was his newly hired assistant, and even after being so stingy that he just told them Han Xiaoyuan's name, he didn't introduce anything. But the more this is the case, the more these people in Unicom don't know where Han Xiaoyuan is, but they can see that Fang Zida trusts and values Han Xiaoyuan very much.
