Chapter 44 Soft Power and Hard Power

"Yes, yes, you are right, I humbly accept your criticism." Lin Mo took a chicken leg from his mother with a hippie smile, and gave it to Lin Rui, making Lin Lei so angry that she burst into tears.

"Here, you have it too." The other chicken leg went into Lin Lei's bowl, making her immediately burst into laughter.

The small courtyard was happy, but the outside was gloomy, it turned out that the family surnamed Luo had just been stolen because there was no one, and she was so angry that she ran to the courtyard to scold.

"Which one killed a thousand knives, stole the chickens that the old lady's family had worked hard to raise for more than half a year, and gave birth to a son without fart* offal, so that I saw that I had to use a kitchen knife to cut you to death! ……”

"Yes!" Lin Mo saw his father and mother exchanging glances, with a smile in his eyes, this surnamed Luo always likes to say bad things about his own family outside, this time the laying hen in the family was stolen and I don't know how to feel heartbroken! You know, she likes to show off how hard her hens lay eggs.

Many people in the courtyard came out with bowls to watch the excitement, and one of them said sharply: "Lao Luo, isn't your hen on it?" ”

When everyone looked up, it was not, her hen was walking on the roof of her house!

What followed was a chase of chickens and dogs, and finally the hen was caught and the surname Luo hated and said: "When I go home, I will slaughter you and eat meat, and see if you still run!" ”

The spectators in the compound watched in disappointment as she turned around and went home, everyone was still waiting for her to scold any new words today! I didn't expect to find a chicken in the back of the peak, hey! Let's go home and eat.

In the afternoon, Lin Mo came to the Shuangmu Building to hold a meeting, and the theme of the meeting was to buy a car.

"It's about less than 10 million, maybe a few million is enough, do we have enough funds in our account?"

"Want to buy a car?" The people below are in a commotion, there are not many cars on the street now, thinking that their company actually wants to buy a small car, everyone feels a little incredible, just like a company in later generations, a lot of luxury cars, but the chairman still wants to buy ten or eight private jets, everyone will definitely think that the chairman has smoked, we are not

"There's a lot of money in the account, but is it cost-effective to buy a car now?" Huang Yumei, as the top boss of the two companies, of course knows the financial situation, but she feels a little worthless about Lin Mo's generosity, and there is no car in the company, so why should she buy it!

"Mr. Huang is right, our company has several Santanas, I don't think there is any need to buy them again, right?"

"Mr. Lin, let's save a little, this style of hard work can't be lost!" As soon as I heard this, it was Jiao Cuifen who could say this.

Lin Mo's hands pressed down, and everyone fell silent.

"With the development and growth of the neighborhood and Shuangmu, many merchants will come to our headquarters in the future, and there will be many eyes watching us outside."

Everyone agrees with this point, not to mention that in the future, some suppliers will take the initiative to visit Shuangmu Building, and some units of outreach also come to visit from time to time, which also shows the success of Zhongsen China.

Lin Mo held a pen in his hand and shook it and said, "Facade! As you all know, the decoration of the outlet is very important, not only to let customers feel the joy of consumption, but also to let them perceive the image of the two companies, so far we have been very successful. And what about the renovation of the headquarters? ”

Seeing that everyone was a little confused, Lin Mo wrote two big words 'strength' in his notebook with a pen.

"Strength can be divided into soft power and hard power, I have told everyone before, I will not repeat it here, so what are the representative things of a company's soft power? I believe that everyone has their own opinions, which we can learn from each other after the meeting. ”

"Good! Mr. Lin, we haven't argued together for a long time, and I'm sure everyone would like to get your advice. Hong Jiang and the others were brought out by Lin Mo, and they would not let go of this opportunity to learn a lot of new knowledge and new concepts.

Lin Mo nodded in agreement, and then he continued:

"In my opinion, the car of a high-level cadre of an enterprise is also a kind of soft power, do you think!" As he spoke, Lin Mo nodded Jiao Cuifen, who was sitting at the bottom, with his hand.

"What if our Mr. Jiao went out and drove a BMW Mercedes-Benz, and Bai Xue? Riding a bicycle when you go out, what will outsiders think of the comparison between the strength of the neighborhood and Shuangmu? ”

"My BMW Mercedes-Benz is still in your hands! Hurry up and take it out and return it to me. Saying that, Jiao Cuifen made a gesture to search her body, making everyone laugh happily.

Everyone understands what Lin Mo means, buying this car is the meaning of decorating the faΓ§ade, and it is also a benefit for everyone, so they all agreed, and they were all discussing what model to buy.

"Ahem!" After Lin Mo attracted everyone's attention back, he said: "The brand that Li Lan and I initially selected is Mercedes-Benz. ”

"Boom!" The conference room was immediately boiling, and everyone couldn't believe that the company would actually equip themselves with Mercedes Benzes, to paraphrase the saying that everyone was ready to kneel and lick. It's rare to see such a generous boss now, a Mercedes-Benz car costs hundreds of thousands, Lin Mo, the boss, actually threw it out without blinking an eye, so everyone suddenly had the idea of doing their best, everyone is so righteous, so do you have to work harder?

Now there are few bosses who want to give this kind of benefit to their subordinates, if you really want to send it, others will say that you are a stupid hat, so China's professional managers are still dead until later generations, without it, not a heart.

"The preliminary decision was made to buy ten imported Mercedes-Benz cars, one each for Jiao Cuifen and Wen Jinbiao in the neighborhood."

Jiao Cuifen on the side didn't expect that what Lin Mo said just now was not a joke, she asked stupidly; "But I can't drive! Or... I don't want it, do I? ”

"Mr. Jiao, learn it yourself! Go to the traffic police brigade to find someone. "Wen Jinbiao is very happy, he will have a special car in the future, or he will run!

"Shuangmu's Bai Xue and Guo Ziqi each have one, and Zhongsen China's Huang Yumei, Ji Zinong, and Li Naiqiao have one."

"I will take one of the remaining three by myself, and two of them will be used as a motorcycle, and I will wait for the deployment of the general manager's office."

Everyone has no objection to the above people being able to get a special car, but it is inevitable that his heart is a little sour, and Lin Mo has already dealt with this.

"Buy another 10 Santanas, and get one for those who don't have one here."

This remark made the people who didn't get the Mercedes-Benz car smile just now, the car they bought was one thing, and the car issued by the company was another, which represented the sense of achievement that they were valued by the company.

"If you should learn to drive, go and learn to drive, don't be able to drive when the car arrives, then it's a joke!" Lin Mo had only driven a van in his previous life, and he thought that he would have to strengthen and consolidate it.

After the benefits were distributed, everyone began to get down to business, and the development of the two companies has been good recently, but there are many problems.

"Mr. Lin, now there are more and more people in our headquarters, and this office is a bit overstretched, not enough!" Huang Yumei, as the superior of the two companies, has recently received a lot of complaints, saying that the current headquarters is not enough.

At this time, it can be seen that Lin Mo had the foresight to reserve that piece of land, and the scale of the headquarters in Lin Mo's mind was not small, but there were some difficulties in funding.

"Hmmm! I'll think about that. "I don't have enough money! The annual profits of the two companies are planned to be invested in the construction of new outlets, so Lin Mo had to give birth to the idea of asking Shuangmu Investment for help at this time, and 20 million US dollars is enough.

"Also, now that the price of raw materials in the market has begun to rise, especially vegetables, we have to purchase from other places, which has directly led to the rise of costs in the neighborhood, and I think this issue should also be paid attention to." Every time the purchasing department comes to check the accounts, it is the time when Jiao Cuifen is most troubled, not only because of the price increase, but also because many varieties are out of stock, which makes her have a headache.

"Well, I'll think about this too, and everyone will think about it together." Lin Mo suddenly remembered next year's big rush to buy, hey! Headache.

In the evening, Lin Mo immediately contacted the American side, and on the phone he said that he was pitiful and begged his cousin for alms.

"Isn't this money yours? I'm just running it for you. Li Lan, who was having a regular meeting in the morning, smiled on the other end of the phone, making the company's officials and others wonder who was calling, which actually made Wall Street's recognized new star in the investment community so happy.

"Twenty million? No problem, it's just a small plan on my side that has been postponed for a while, when? Li Lan now holds a lot of stocks with soaring market capitalization, and she is also wealthy.

"At the beginning of next year, we still have to find someone to design the drawings, and we have to apply for approval, or next year." Lin Mo knew that he couldn't eat hot tofu in a hurry, the land was ready-made, and he had bought a lot of them in the surrounding area in the past few years, and he could build a skyscraper, but the headquarters building in Lin Mo's heart was more than twenty floors at most, and no matter how high it was, it was eye-catching.

As for the rise in the price of raw materials, Lin Mo can't do anything, this is the wheel of history, he has no way to stop it, he can only get through this difficulty, not to mention that the impact on the neighborhood, a company that signs contracts with suppliers every year, is not very great.

My cousin always doesn't return to China, which makes my aunt's family a little anxious, and many twenty-six-year-old girls are already mothers, but Li Lan said that she was not in a hurry, and when she was in a hurry, she said that she would find a foreigner to come back, so the aunt died down. In Congjiang City, although everyone is envious of finding a foreign son-in-law on the surface, in fact, they are all disdainful behind their backs, looking for a foreign devil to be their son-in-law? Phew! The long hair on that body looked as if it had not evolved completely, and there was no difference between the fur and the beast that drank blood. The Congjiang people of this era are so stubborn, and in later generations, whoever has a foreign in-law is worthy of boasting, and it can only be said that even marriage has begun to embark on an open road.
