Chapter 703: Everyone is in Action (Part I)

With the first bank in the United States announcing its filing for bankruptcy protection, followed by Lehman Brothers and other banks in the United States declaring bankruptcy and collapse in the next two months, the whole world suddenly entered a period of turmoil, and the economic crisis caused by the subprime mortgage crisis in the United States only invaded the whole world with the momentum of dominating the world.

At this time, the whole world suddenly remembered that it seemed that Mr. Zhang Yang, the founder of the Star Group a few years ago, and the chairman of the board of directors who was only guiding behind the scenes, had expected this problem, but at that time everyone did not pay attention to it, and now with the complete outbreak of the entire economic crisis, people all over the world were shocked to find that this time it was not just a financial crisis, but a comprehensive financial crisis!

On the first day of the month, Zhang Yang held the first meeting of all senior administrators in the company, and all the managers of the entire Star Group attended the meeting, and the huge conference room covering an area of half a floor was almost full of all the managers! This is the first and only senior management meeting held by Star Group, and all department manager-level figures will attend the meeting.

Sitting on the main table, looking at the dense crowd of people below, Zhang Yang couldn't help but sigh a little, he found for the first time that there were nearly 1,000 people at the level of department managers of the Star Group! However, it is normal to think that there are 8 Fortune 500 companies in the subsidiaries of Star Group alone, and it is normal for a Fortune 500 company to have 1,000 manager-level management.

But it can be said that those who sit here do not have an annual salary of less than one million! The managers of those branches are not qualified to sit in this conference room. And how many elites are gathered in this conference room at the moment?

"Next, I would like to invite Mr. Zhang Yang, chairman of Star Group, to speak." Xia Yueyue, who temporarily served as the host of the meeting, spoke on the main stage.

In fact, the whole conference room is almost like the National People's Congress held by the country, and there is no way to come like this, and the general conference room can't be put down at all. Everyone has a microphone in front of them, everyone has the opportunity to speak, when Xia Yueyue's voice fell, the whole audience resounded with thunderous applause, there are too many people here who have not seen the legendary chairman, even the executives in Apple and other companies are extremely worshipful of Zhang Yang.

This is the personal charm, Zhang Yang just sat on his seat and knocked on the microphone with a smile, and the applause below immediately stopped quickly and quieted down.

"Today's meeting, one is to let everyone meet each other to get acquainted with each other, in the future, although we are still a separate company between the subsidiaries of the Star Group, but the cooperation between us will be closer, this whole week of meetings, in order to give everyone a time to communicate, before today's meeting, the management of each branch should have met with each other, acquaintance, here today, I will not say those clichés, I will directly say what we Star Group will do next." Zhang Yang said seriously.

No one was talking below, and most of them listened attentively, and occasionally the sound of a rustling pen could be heard below. "First, I need to publish a regulation, a regulation that has not been established since the Star Group was founded, this regulation may be very unhumanized, but if there is any objection, you can raise it."

"Starry Sky gives me a piece of information." Zhang Yang spoke, and with Zhang Yang's voice, the huge movie theater-like screen behind Zhang Yang directly lit up, and the lights in the conference room became much dimmer. Then two costumes appeared on a huge screen.

"Everyone believes that they have seen it, this is a set of dresses specially ordered by Star Group for its employees from Versace, and every manager will have a dress tailored by you Now I announce a rule of the company, that is, all those who participate in external banquets must wear the company's uniform attire! That's what you're seeing now! Of course, I don't care about gatherings between you people, but you must wear these two dresses for all public gatherings, including me. With Zhang Yan's words, the two sets of dresses on the screen began to rotate slowly and automatically, and the realistic three-dimensional effect allowed everyone to see what the two dresses looked like.

It is quite elegant and ornate in design, there are almost no shortcomings, if there are only one if you have to say shortcomings, there are too many people wearing it! However, it is different from the outside world in that there is an eye-catching eogo of the Star Group at its Xiōng entrance, and each level of personnel is different, and the eogo is a metal Peugeot made of a special alloy.

"But what no one knows is that this alloy is a new alloy researched by the Star Group Laboratory, and it is absolutely not sold on the market, and it has another purpose, that is, to assist the Star Sky to identify the identity of the Star Group personnel, with the outbreak of the world economic crisis, and the next action to be carried out, the Star Group ushered in agents of various countries, spies, commercial espionage, etc.

Zhang Yang's words immediately made the people below start to talk about it, Europeans and Americans pay more attention to "freedom", and wear company-specific clothes when they go to work, which everyone has no opinion, but now the company actually does the opposite, I don't care what to wear during work hours, but the time to participate in public banquets makes people wear this kind of standardized clothing.

"Of course, all shareholders who do not hold positions within the company are exceptional, and you can choose at your own discretion." Zhang Yang added, in fact, the most troublesome thing is those foreign shareholders, these people are good-looking, although they have long been shareholders of subsidiaries of Star Group, but they don't like to admit it, but anyway, they must have psychological pimples in this kind of behavior.

"If you have an opinion, you can raise it at this time. 、。 Zhang Yang added that there were a lot of voices below, but everyone's microphones were turned off, so they could only hear the "buzzing" of discussions, but no one heard what was being said. However, to Zhang Yang's surprise, the voice of the discussion became smaller and smaller, but no one objected, which was very different from what Zhang Yang thought, he originally thought that those foreign employees would strongly protest, after all, in their opinion, this is to restrict their "freedom".

Buffett also attended the meeting, although he could not participate, seeing this situation Buffett couldn't help but sigh, maybe he didn't feel anything, but Buffett knew that the only reason for this situation was that he was playing tricks on his strong personal prestige! If it were someone else who announced the news, there would be no protest. Oh, maybe Li Keqing can do it, but it won't work with another person.

"Well, since no one is resisting, then this matter is so certain. Because of the economic crisis, I can guarantee that you will attend countless banquets in the future, so I will promote our company...... Zhang Yang shrugged his shoulders in some surprise and said.

There were a lot of chuckles from below, but everyone didn't say much, since they didn't object, they accepted it. "Now I announce the second decision, before, the company has formally applied to the US Securities and Exchange Commission, will stop the circulation of shares listed in the United States of the subsidiaries of Star Computer Company, and all subsidiaries of the entire Star Computer Company will enter the asset restructuring period, in fact, this work has been carried out, and it will take about another month to complete the asset restructuring, and the shares of the entire company's Star Computer Company will be all recalculated! According to the statistics of the Ministry of Finance, the Star Group will hold 57 percent of the shares of the Star Computer Company, and the remaining shares will be distributed according to the shares held by the original shareholders. ”

This news still caused a lot of shock, because there are too many subsidiaries of Star Computer Company, and such an asset restructuring is undoubtedly huge for the optimization of Star Computer Company, but the losses caused by this are certainly not small. However, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, because when the whole company is integrated, then all the data will be used centrally and optimally, which is conducive to enhancing competitiveness.

"Regarding this matter, please Miss Li Yuxuan to announce the current implementation situation." Zhang Yang said. Because these subsidiaries of Star Computer Company, Star Group holds more than 51 percent of the shares, so even if other shareholders have opinions on such a distribution, except for choosing to sell the shares in their hands, there is no other room for resistance, very simply, because Zhang Yang agreed, then they had to agree.

The reason for this is very simple, at present, these companies raise too many idlers, especially the overlap of functions between various departments is undoubtedly a very painful thing, once the collective integration, then its work efficiency will be greatly improved, and more importantly, why does Zhang Yang raise these idlers for the United States.

"Hello everyone, I will serve as the executive president of the reorganized Star Computer Company, the whole company will have six vice presidents, each vice president is responsible for a department, the first point, that is, after the reorganization of Star Computer Company, the whole company will adopt the company's most advanced architecture system, including motherboard, CPU, graphics card, hard disk, memory module, it can be said that all parts of a whole home computer will adopt a unified standard! Coupled with the optimization software of Star Security, at the same price, using the complete machine sold by our company, Star will be 180% of the integration of other companies! ”

As soon as Li Yuxuan's data came out, the managers below exclaimed. What does this mean? Think about it, if you are a consumer, you pay for the assembly of a machine, and you buy a complete machine of Star Computer Company, the price is the same, the complete machine of Star Computer Company will be 80% higher than the xìng you assemble yourself, almost double, what do you choose?

"President Li Yuxuan." At this time, a proficient English interrupted Li Yuxuan's report, Li Yuxuan was not angry, because this is not a press conference, this is an internal meeting of the company, everyone is discussing problems, and naturally others are allowed to speak, but there are a lot of people attending this meeting.

"Please." This person is supposed to be the manager in charge of the sales department at AMD.

"That's the case, is the company going to enter the whole machine market?" The manager asked with some excitement.

"I can answer this question, yes, and after the reorganization, the AMD division will no longer be responsible for sales, and will become a professional CPU development department, CPU development, and CPU production department." Zhang Yang answered this question for Li Yuxuan.

"Thank you, Chairman. I'm fine. There was a hint of heat in the manager's eyes, although it seems that AMD seems to be less responsible, but fools know that when a company with a market value of hundreds of billions of dollars does something full-time, how terrifying the energy that bursts out, this is the advantage of public Xi after integration! AMD will no longer worry about sales and other things, because that's the sales department, they are responsible for R&D and production! As for whether to lose money or not, as well as the source of funds, naturally the head office is responsible!

"Since I talked about this problem, then I will talk about this problem, many people may have noticed that in the past six months and even the second half of 07 years, our company's profits are not particularly high, or in other words, our company's input is greater than output, and many projects that can be put into operation have stalled. Our losses will be much worse than they are now! Li Yuxuan praised again.

However, Li Yuxuan's explanation made many people below suddenly realize, because these people had received a lot of inexplicable orders before, and some profitable industries stopped the pace of distributing goods and going public, and they just stayed in the laboratory, obviously the company had enough ability to spread them to every corner of the market in the shortest possible time, but they did not do so. Now there's finally an Answer.

“… Then I will continue to announce the next decision, Star Computer Company will officially enter the whole machine home machine, the company's supplies market, and the company's product profits will be maintained at 100%, that is, we only need to double the profit, unlike other brand machines, at least to ensure more than 300% of the profit. The reason for this is because of the company's new strategy...... Li Yuxuan said here and paused.

"Everyone should be very curious, in fact, there is nothing curious, the company's next new strategy is very simple, that is, after the Star Computer Company enters the home machine market, it will no longer retail any computer accessories, unless it is after-sales maintenance, or it is provided to other brand computer companies, such as Lenovo, Dell and other companies, but we will no longer face the market and ship alone!" Li Yuxuan dropped a bombshell...
