When Zhou arrived in Colombia and turned on his mobile phone when he left the airport, his phone was ringing non-stop. In the four hours he was on the plane, he had more than a hundred missed calls.
For a while, Zhou You was a little confused, except for urgent matters, few people would call him directly. Because he was running around the world all day long, many times, the phone was an interruption to him. What's more, not only work phones but also offshore private phones are full of missed calls these days.
Sanchez saw the screen full of missed calls, looked through the messages again, laughed, and said, "Congratulations to your boss, happy first anniversary of the company's establishment." โ
Zhou You reacted a little and asked, "What time is it today?" โ
"It's now 10 p.m. Colombian time on the 18th, but it's 10 a.m. Singapore time on the 19th."
Zhou You shook his head and smiled and said, "If it weren't for so many phone calls, I wouldn't have remembered that today is the anniversary of our company's first anniversary." โ
Zhouyou's company has been established for four years, but the first three years have not formed a formal management model, until the company was established on November 19 last year, there is a little formal management model.
Nowadays, the company sells antiques, sells gold and silver coins, makes videos and sells them, forming a formal management model. But Zhou You has always been outside the management of the company, and he didn't even think to commemorate it today.
Lin Wei asked for his opinion in the email, and he just asked Lin Wei to arrange it himself, and now he has forgotten about it.
Rodriguez came to pick him up with the driver and got into the car, thinking that he was a little incompetent as a boss.
"Sanchez, do you also think that I am not a qualified boss? Let's be honest! โ
Rodriguez, who was sitting in the front row, turned around and said, "Boss, I think you're the best!" โ
Zhou You smiled and said, "It's a pity that there is no reward!" โ
Seeing that Zhou You was in a good mood, Sanchez said: "Boss, I think you have done a very good job in the company's development plan." But you don't seem to have any interest in the management of the company all the time, and you don't even want to be distracted by this, and I don't think it's done well enough. Nanyang Commercial Salvage is already the largest company in the industry, and even if we don't salvage now, we can keep the company running for at least five years just by selling video rights. However, vigorous development cannot hide the lack of management, and I personally think that there are still many areas for improvement. โ
Zhou You nodded and said, "Very good, I also want to hear your opinions." โ
Sanchez thought for a moment and said: "The company is developed by the boss, and you have unparalleled capabilities in terms of strategic development, which does not need to be changed." However, you are doing the big and small affairs of the company alone, and even the decision-making is done by you alone, if we want to become a regular large company, many times, the rule of man is not as good as the rule of law. โ
Zhou You felt that what Sanchez said was very correct, and now everything is relying on his own development, and only within the scope of his own demarcation, Bill has some management rights. For example, hotels in Spain, as well as hotel service companies, including casinos under construction. Otherwise, it is to cooperate with others and push all the affairs to the partners, including the casinos in Macau, as well as those companies with equity investment.
In this case, the company is completely dependent on itself to sustain itself, and it is not okay to be lazy if you want to. Seeing the CEOs of those multinational companies playing golf and attending some drinking parties every day, it seems that things are handled well, and he only has envy.
This is not someone else's reason, it will only be his own reason, now that the company's foundation has been laid, it seems that it is time for him to delegate power.
"I see what you mean, so tell me, what should I do now?"
At this time, Sanchez also became cautious, and he specified that his words now will affect his future development. "Personally, I think that the boss should first set up an efficient management team now, in the past, there was only one Nanyang Commercial Salvage Company, and there were no more than 100 direct employees, so there were not many affairs in all aspects. But now the boss has not only this company under his name, but also a hotel management group, a casino, an investment in a technology company, and an entertainment company established by the boss. What's more, the investment service business in Colombia needs countless people to serve this plan, we have to set up a management company, set up a security company, set up a transportation company, without an effective management team, the boss will completely consume your time on this plan. โ
Zhou You was silent, indeed, although he is now a successful person, this success depends on the foresight brought by his rebirth, not his own ability. If you are not reborn, your own ability is to manage the dozens of people under your hands.
It is precisely because of my lack of ability in this area that I have never thought of establishing a sound management team. When you encounter something, you either push it outward or throw it to someone you trust.
Now it seems that the problem has arisen, he casts a net all over the world and conducts business, but what about the people under his hands? Even if there are a few now, they are all scattered and directly managed by themselves, and if they don't have themselves, this kind of efficiency will become very low.
What's more, they are no longer enough to sustain their extravagant plans.
This talent is really lacking!
The car arrived at the hotel at the foot of Montserrate Mountain, which is undergoing an intense renovation, the nine-story hotel building will be renovated, some rooms will be converted into offices, and three rooms will be opened on each floor as meeting rooms.
In this way, each floor has bedrooms, offices, meeting rooms, and the upper six floors can arrange for eighteen companies to settle in. The third floor has been converted into a small office area, which is convenient for domestic companies to settle in in the future.
On the second floor, there was originally a meeting room and a swimming pool, which has not changed much and will continue to perform these functions after being renovated.
The ground floor has been converted into a large restaurant and reception center, and if all the companies move in, there will be more than 500 permanent staff in the future, and there will be no canteen.
The management company that traveled around them would use the original annex building, which was not very large, with the first and second floors used as office space, and the third floor converted into fewer than a few offices.
There is also a set of rooms belonging to Zhou You, with a reception room on the outside, an office in the middle, and his bedroom on the inside. When it came to choosing, Zhou You didn't pick the one with the best location, but chose the northernmost one. There are no nice gardens or shaded trees outside the window, but you can see a panoramic view of the school at the foot of the hill with a drop of 50 meters, and you can see half of the city of Bogotรก.
Of course, now it's a mess, and you can't live if you want to, so you still live in an ordinary room on the fourth floor that hasn't been rebuilt.
The cliff between the hotel and the school has been blasted by construction crews to build a spiraling road with steps for people to go up and down.
Walking around is to go down the stairs that have not yet been built, and go down to the school.
The renovation of the hotel takes time, but the renovation of the school is very fast. Because the school will be used as a base for security companies and a parking lot for transportation companies, it is only necessary to paint the building and fill the leaks on the roof.
There are a lot of fitness equipment that has not yet been installed in the huge yard, and it looks a little messy everywhere, and the construction workers who live in the school are more nervous when they see the big boss of Zhou You appear.
Many people in Colombia look like yellow people, and under the lights, they even have the illusion that this is a construction site in the mainland.
I went around the dormitory, and the environment was relatively simple. Each room has six bunk beds, the top can be used as a desk, if you want to go to the toilet or take a shower, you need to go to the common bathroom.
However, Sanchez said that the conditions here are much better than the accommodation conditions of the Colombian military, and many Colombian soldiers are bunks and do not have any private space at all.
Rodriguez, who was panting from running, came to Zhou You's side and whispered, "Boss, dinner is ready, let's go back to dinner first." โ
Zhou You nodded, he didn't talk to anyone except his own people, not even the manager of the engineering company who was supervising the work here, turned around and returned to the hotel on the mountain.
After dinner, he said to Sanchez: "I'm going to think about you tonight, and I don't have any arrangements." You and Rodriguez sort out the results of the recent investigation, and I'll look at it tomorrow. โ
Back in the room, Rodriguez turned on the grinder, crushed a pack of coffee beans for Zhou You, and prepared fresh milk and sugar cubes before leaving.
Zhou You made himself a cup of fragrant coffee, did not turn on the light, sat in front of the window and began to think about the company's follow-up arrangements.
When he was in the car, he still thought that talent was hard to find. But now he's got it open. With his capital strength, what kind of people do you want? During this time, he kept a snack for himself and found a little suitable talent for himself, as for the cost, it was not within the scope of his consideration.
The current talent gap is mainly in three aspects, one is the domestic entertainment company, the cinema management company needs a competent candidate to buy buildings and build cinemas in major cities. This not only requires pioneering ability, but also requires people with certain experience in the domestic entertainment industry.
Then there is the talent gap on the Colombian side, and he needs a good management team that can not only serve the domestic company, but also have a certain influence in Colombia. Zhou You thought about it, or should he look for politicians who have retired or stepped down from Colombian politics.
The most important thing is the management of their own company headquarters, which is divided into two aspects, one is their own investment team, and the future investment may not all be invested according to their own memory, they should cultivate a mature team, and they do not have to rely on outsiders to help in the future.
The second is the management of the headquarters, they need to effectively connect their industries around the world, the United States, Asia, Europe, technology companies, spinach companies, hotel groups, these different industries, different regions, must be controlled at all times, just rely on traveling alone, it is indeed exhausting to death.
