Chapter 55: The Helmsman
"Indeed, talent is a problem, remove the warehouse 30,000, Baolong, Dongjiekou, Railway Station, Lifting River Wanda, Shiou Wanzhuang, there are enough customers, and there are at least ten places that can open Xizizi branches. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info There are so many places, if you want to open a branch at the same time, Xizizi doesn't have that talent reserve at all. After listening to Wang Siyuan's suggestion, Yang Mutian nodded approvingly.
At the same time, Yang Mutian also has a certain recognition of Wang Siyuan in his heart, and feels that Wang Siyuan should be able to do the position of general manager.
Of course, Yang Mutian has sufficient self-confidence, and Xizizi will definitely develop and grow and become a "cash cow" that covers the sky. In this case, Yang Mutian is naturally cautious about the choice of general manager of Xizizi.
After all, the first general manager of Xizizi will be the first person at the helm of Xizizi, if this helmsman "takes Xizizi crookedly", Xizizi is useless even if he has great potential. Like a sapling growing in the wrong direction, no amount of fertilizer and water you irrigate will make it grow into a giant tree unless you cut off all the crooked parts of the tree. But if you really have this spare time, why not plant a new tree?
It is precisely because he is worried about this, and he doesn't want to have unlimited potential, because the incompetence of the first helmsman has become a tree that can only be abandoned, Yang Mutian's selection of the general manager will be so strict, and even killed seven or eight interviewers one after another. Otherwise, Xizizi would not have been until now, and there is no general manager who can see the overall situation and coordinate everything.
Therefore, even though he had a certain recognition of Wang Siyuan in his heart, Yang Mutian still did not rashly draw conclusions, but decided to continue to observe Wang Siyuan to determine whether Wang Siyuan had the ability to be the first helmsman of Xizizi.
Besides, the good birds choose the trees to perch, and the virtuous ministers choose the master to do things, whether Wang Siyuan is willing to come from the prosperous Shanghai to the "poor countryside" of Fushi City and take over the Xizizi, which now has only one store for the time being, this is still a problem.
――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Yang Mutian and Wang Siyuan, Xing's father at the South Railway Station, chatted for almost half an hour.
When Wang Siyuan eased up, the tiredness on his face dissipated a little, Yang Mutian left Xing's father with him, drove BMW I8 from South Railway Station, and went to Cangsan Wanda Plaza.
When he arrived at Cangsan Wanda Plaza, seeing that the time was almost five o'clock, Yang Mutian originally planned to take Wang Siyuan to find a place to have dinner first, and then go to Xizizi's Cangsan Wanda Main Store to inspect. However, due to Wang Siyuan's insistence, Yang Mutian had no choice but to take him to the Xizizi Cangsan Wanda Main Store immediately.
Fifteen minutes later, on the opening day of the Xizizicang 3Wanda main store, Yang Mutian and Wang Siyuan sat opposite each other in the seat where Yang Mutian was sitting, observing the passenger flow in the store while eating the desserts and drinks that had just been served.
After a long time, Wang Siyuan, who swept away the desserts and drinks he ordered, looked at the almost full guests around him, and said to Yang Mutian with a smile: "It seems that Mr. Yang's words at the train station just now, whether it is the charm of the flowers, or the store, the deliciousness of these desserts and drinks, or the reactions of the guests, are indeed not exaggerated. ”
Hearing this, after this period of observation, I became more and more satisfied with Wang Siyuan, and felt that I could let Wang Siyuan give it a try, as long as I kept an eye on it, even if Wang Siyuan couldn't do it, it would be a big deal to change the general manager Yang Mutian, and said with a smile: "Yes, then Mr. Wang should already have a certain understanding of the strength of our Xizizi catering." How's that, are you interested in taking over Xizizi? ”
"This..." Faced with Yang Mutian's inquiry, or invitation, Wang Siyuan hesitated.
It's not that Wang Siyuan thinks that Xizizi has no future. Judging from his "personal experience" just now, the potential of Xizizi is at least at the national level -- what is called the national level, that is, a behemoth that can have more than 500 stores in the whole of China and an annual turnover of at least 10 billion yuan.
It's not Wang Siyuan, who is reluctant to bustle the prosperous Shanghai - although Shanghai is prosperous, the Fu City is not bad. In fact, everyone loves to run to Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, just because there are many opportunities in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. If this factor is removed, I am afraid that at least half of the people are unwilling to stay in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, where the pace of life is fast and the environment is poor.
Not to mention Wang Siyuan, who prides himself on the identity of "a large catering company of the United States and the former CEO of China" -- to be honest, Wang Siyuan, the CEO of China, sounds very loud, and people who do not know the truth will probably be bluffed by this name. But in fact, that catering company has only a dozen stores in China, and all of them are in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou.
In other words, Wang Siyuan, the CEO of China, is actually a regional director to put it bluntly, and the existence of the bottom of the high-level cadres. Therefore, when the ambitious Wang Siyuan wanted to expand more branches in other cities in China, but was rejected by the company's senior management on the grounds that "there is no expansion in China for the time being", he resigned without saying a word.
In Wang Siyuan's view, he has a Harvard MBA doctorate, and has practical management experience, this glamorous resume, where can he not find a good job, why should he nest in an unenterprising company, be a dispensable senior cadre, slowly boil his qualifications, and wait for the opportunity for promotion?
Therefore, Wang Siyuan's hesitation was not because of anything else, but because he wanted to seriously think about whether to take over Xizizi or not, and did not want to regret it afterwards due to a hasty decision.
At the same time, Wang Siyuan also wanted to continue to observe Yang Mutian to see what the nature of Yang Mutian, the boss, was, and whether it was compatible with his own personality. If it is not in tune, no matter how great the potential of Xizizi is, Wang Siyuan will not take over.
Because if the personalities of the two are not compatible, they may not be able to see it at the beginning, but when the company grows and develops, in the direction of the company, Wang Siyuan and Yang Mutian will inevitably break out into a violent conflict. In the end, Wang Siyuan will only have two ends - either resign by himself or be dismissed by Yang Mutian.
For Wang Siyuan, after he worked hard to develop the company, he had to resign or be fired by the boss because he disagreed with the boss, which was really unacceptable.
Wang Siyuan's concerns in his heart, Yang Mutian vaguely understood. Therefore, when Wang Siyuan hesitated, Yang Mutian did not urge Wang Siyuan to make a decision on the spot, nor was he angry at Wang Siyuan's "ignorance".
On the contrary, after seeing the steady side of Wang Siyuan's personality under the radical shell, Yang Mutian was even more satisfied and relieved that Wang Siyuan took over the joy - the helmsman of a company, if he was only radical, would sooner or later lead the company into the ditch. But if there is no radicalism at all, then it is not okay either, because it means that the person has lost his ambition.
An unenterprising company at the helm, although he can guarantee that the company will not capsize, cannot carry the company forward. And in this world that is constantly changing every day, if you don't advance, you will retreat, and you will definitely be eliminated by the world in the end.
Therefore, a radical but steady personality like Wang Siyuan is the most suitable character to be at the helm of the company.
