70. BAA's Past and Present
Xu Jianing announced the decision to deal with Su Zhi, removing him from his position with immediate effect, canceling all signing rights, and waiting for the results of the audit center's investigation before the group made a final decision on his treatment, and Cheng Zhen, the manager of the group's marketing department, took over all Su Zhi's duties from now on.
To tell the truth, Xu Jianing's decision to do a little against his will, first of all, Cheng Zhen is the manager of the group's marketing center, and the group has a lot of work that he needs to do, so it is unreasonable to throw the work of the source of industrial control to him, second, Cheng Zhen is a good deputy, he will complete the work assigned by the leader very well, but to be a leader is still a little lacking in heat, his character is too gentle, lack of domineering and responsibility as a leader, third, he has not done industrial control, in terms of business is a little worse.
But now he is the best candidate, although there are many talents in the group, but there is no one from a professional class to do automated sales, and it is too late to recruit one from the outside, and now the source of industrial control is a mess, can no longer withstand the toss, think about it, only send Cheng Zhen up.
Xu Jianing sent Cheng Zhen up, firstly, he wanted to rely on his sales management experience to quickly hold down the position, and on the other hand, he also wanted to rely on his execution ability to do a good job.
Cheng Zhen is a very meticulous person, and the reason why Xu Jianing likes him is because this person has several outstanding advantages.
The first is serious, it may be because of personality, Cheng Zhen must pursue perfection in everything, the most prominent performance at work is serious, extremely serious, Xu Jianing has scolded many people because of low-level mistakes, but only did not scold Cheng Zhen, the reason is that Cheng Zhen is very rigorous in doing things.
The second is to keep a strict mouth. Cheng Zhen is a person who can keep secrets, this person doesn't like to talk, what he sees in his eyes and hears in his ears is never spread randomly, and he does this to anyone, he never spreads the things of the leader, of course, the leader wants to know the privacy of the people below, he will not say, just this, he has won the love of many leaders.
Another is strong execution. As long as it is the work arranged by Xu Jianing, even if it is just casually said, he will complete it with quality and quantity, Xu Jianing is too busy, she can't do a lot of work herself, at this time Cheng Zhen is Xu Jianing's loyal left and right hand, and some meticulous things are completed by him, so in the entire group sales department, his work is the busiest, Rao is like this, he has not made any low-level mistakes.
When Xu Jianing knew that she was about to take over from Yuanquan Industrial Control, she drove to Dongshan University to find a senior professor of electrical engineering to teach her, which was a habit she developed a long time ago, and whenever she entered a field she didn't understand, she would go to the university to seek advice from those professionals.
Xu Jianing's class is very unique, it is one-on-one tutoring, the tutor is generally a professor of Nanji University, Xu Jianing does not know very in-depth things, she generally understands a context, or a most basic principle, the most important thing is that he must understand the development law of this matter, in her opinion, this is the most important thing.
After dismissing Su Zhi, she came to Dongshan University again, the difference is that she brought Wu Yue and Cheng Zhen this time.
The reason why she brought Wu Yue here was to teach him, Xu Jianing actually didn't like Wu Yue, the reason was very simple, she felt that Wu Yue was too stupid, the chairman has always been known for his vicious eyes, I don't know why he chose such a mediocre person this time, despite this, Xu Jianing still decided to teach him well, she would not disobey the tasks assigned by her superiors because of her likes and dislikes.
On the way by car, Xu Jianing said to Wu Yue: "The person we are going to meet today is a senior professor of Dongshan University, he has a very deep understanding of the automation industry, we went to ask him some things about BAA, this is also the second lesson I want to give you, people in the workplace, in fact, do not need to be proficient in everything, but you must understand, otherwise you will be deceived by others, you want to quickly become an expert from a layman, the fastest way is to listen to the advice of professionals, Integrate the opinions of various parties and come up with the best solution. ”
Xu Jianing looked at Wu Yue, and then said: "Many things have shortcuts and methods, so you must be good at using your brain to find the most efficient method, for example, I just told you, if we go to study the knowledge of electrical automation by ourselves, it may take several months, but we now go to experts, it may only take a few days to find the context, as for very professional knowledge, there are naturally engineers to solve for you, so everything must grasp the key points, as long as you have a general understanding." ”
Wu Yue knew that Xu Jianing was under a lot of pressure during this period of time, but he still found time to teach himself, although she was cold, but she did teach herself between words, Wu Yue knew that he used to associate with some ordinary people, and now he has the opportunity to study closely with elites like Xu Jianing, he secretly decided to be a sponge and study hard with Xu Jianing.
The group soon arrived at Dongshan University and met Professor Li, a professor in the Department of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering.
Professor Li is obviously very familiar with Xu Jianing, seeing the three of them come to say hello with a smile, the group sat down in the small conference room, Professor Li arranged for the students to bring tea for a few people, and asked, "Mr. Xu, what are the instructions for coming this time?" ”
Xu Jianing smiled and said, "Where do I dare to instruct Professor Li, we are here this time mainly to ask you about some things about Naide, BAA, and Ximen Electric." ”
Professor Li took out a few documents and distributed them to a few people, and said after a while: "The companies you are talking about are all giants in the global electrical automation industry, and these companies have their own strengths and weaknesses, and their business methods are not the same. ”
Xu Jianing said: "Then please ask the professor to tell us about it." ”
Professor Li nodded and said: "These companies are the largest in terms of scale, the scale and market share of Naide Electric are the largest, if we remember correctly, it has a history of nearly 180 years, its development benefited from the strategic opportunities brought by World War II, after World War II it began large-scale mergers and acquisitions, many of the brands we see now such as ET, Kuaishi, Merrilan, LE, Shengqi, APC, etc. are its companies, these companies may not have been heard of by outsiders, but at that time, They are all Fortune 500 companies, and through a series of mergers and acquisitions, Naide has formed a very strong company, to take an inappropriate example, they are like an all-star team in the NBA league, everyone is strong. ”
Professor Li took a sip of water and said: "As for Ximen Electric, it is similar to the development history of Naide, but due to its product line is too long, in recent years it has fallen into the quagmire of losses, in 2014 it sold 50% of the share of household appliances to the Expo Group, and the home appliances produced by Ximen Electric will become history, and it will pay more attention to core industries such as industry, energy, and medical care in the future." ”
"BAA is formed in 1988 by the merger of two international enterprises with a history of more than 100 years, West Asia Company and Bofarian Company, if purely from the perspective of commercial value, Naide can be said to be large, very large, and BAA is strong, its organizational structure and overall product positioning are a professional power automation product manufacturer, and the other two have many other businesses, just in terms of automation equipment, BAA can be called the world's first."
