Chapter Seventy-Three: The Chess Game

People have a question about what the fairy company wants to do, what her ultimate intention is, what is her plan for the industry, and whether some of her plans can be realized. People's conjecture about the financial strength of the fairy company has gradually turned into speculation about the company's development intentions, and everyone has a unanimous understanding that the fairy company will never be a supporting role in the Chinese business community, she must have her own development ideas, and she has now successfully built a large group company's territory.

The fairy company is not without its own ideas, the boss is ambitious and bent on building his own business empire, although his actual ability is not proportional to his existing strength. However, until the third year of the company's establishment, the scale of the company was still too small to adapt to the expansion of the scale of investment. It can be said that any company invested by Fairy Company is stronger than the staffing strength of Fairy Headquarters, at least in terms of staff size. It is really unusual for a large company with huge funds to live in a rented single-story office building of more than 1,000 square meters, and this phenomenon is already being disputed within the fairy company. The reason why the fairy company did not consider this aspect in the previous stage was because the business was too busy, and everyone was a little dizzy. On the other hand, from the creation of the fairy company to the present, the personnel have been in a state of tension, and there has been no large-scale personnel expansion, so that everyone has no feeling of small space, and now 100 people occupy more than 1,000 square meters of floor, not to mention that everyone has become accustomed to it. However, the staff expansion of the fairy company is already doomed, and the external relations department has been intermittently negotiating with the two cooperative firms, hoping that the other party will directly send people to the fairy company, but they have not negotiated because of their own continuous outing, besides, people have been complaining about their office conditions, worried that they will have to move out again!

The problem of the fairy company should have been solved long ago, when the company went out to negotiate in May, the personnel department took advantage of the free time to carry out a large-scale talent recruitment, a total of 40 elites were recruited into the fairy company, which is a work that has been planned for a long time, but there was an accident, the management department announced that it could not provide enough offices, and then everyone suddenly realized that the original boss was not in the company! Originally, everyone who thought that there would be no boss and the company would still turn around, only then did they think of the benefits of the boss, and they wanted to participate in the negotiations to replace the boss back, but no one said this. Several left-behind persons in charge of the company urgently discussed and decided to let these new employees temporarily not go to work, and the company organized special training to relieve the pressure on the company's office space. Therefore, the old employees of the fairy company, the newly recruited employees and the young employees who lack experience in the company, implemented unified training, and the training classroom was of course rented, so that some personnel of the fairy company began to suffer for 3 and a half months. Many people don't know what's going on, thinking that it is the company's measures to cultivate talents, but these people have not even visited the company's headquarters for several months, let alone the situation of the president; Some people were still dissatisfied with the boss's delay in visiting everyone, but they did not complain because of the high salary during the training. Everyone has long been tired of the training, especially some young beautiful girls, back and forth is always that bit of content, although there are some external management experts and industry elites to explain to everyone!

Li Mengze didn't know that he was remembered by many people, and the people in charge of the headquarters didn't tell him about these unpleasantness at all in order not to distract him, but he also thought about it. It's not that someone who has always been stingy suddenly thinks about everyone, it's just that Li Yudong asked him if he still wanted an office building specially prepared for fairies, "Old Feng can't wait, if you don't hurry up, he will rent it out." Only then did Li Mengze know that his manager was so good to him, he originally looked at Feng Qingsong and thought that people like others were the material for his career, unlike himself who was hanging all day long, and the emotional old Feng had already prepared an office building for himself! So, on the second day after returning to the company, that is, the day after sending Sima Xiaoyu home and reuniting with his wife at home, he directly found Feng Qingsong, the manager of the B Beijing branch of Xixing Company. Feng Qingsong was quite dissatisfied with this person who rushed in, but when he heard "Old Feng, I heard that you have prepared an office building for the fairy, let's take a look", he was even more surprised, sad and happy, and he forgot to think about how the other party knew, and quickly took this God of Wealth to the future fairy office building that had been planned and renovated for a long time. He couldn't understand why he was so excited at that time, it is said that there are many companies in this building that are in a hurry to rent it, but he did not agree for a long time in order to catch this big fish, this day finally came, maybe this is the case!

Li Mengze, who looked at the office building, was full of praise, and praised Feng Qingsong from time to time, making the other party more and more happy, and kept thinking about how much profit he could earn from the God of Wealth, 100 million, no, 200 million, not enough, this building was acquired by him for 250 million yuan, and nearly 100 million yuan was used for construction and decoration, and 600 million yuan was sold to this rich man, and it took 700 million to say the least, so that it was also better to explain to the people who helped him in the head office, "Yes, it is 700 million." However, he was soon disappointed, no, it should be despair. Someone who spent 2 hours looking at the office building, "It seems that this building can only be sold to fairies, and it is really not suitable for others to live", this sentence made the people who heard it like and were surprised, but they were immediately disappointed, no, it should be despair. Feng Qingsong quickly understood the fatal flaw of this building, the entire building was purely designed for a large-scale investment company like a fairy, the layout of each room, the distribution of communication facilities, and even which department was on which floor and which part were completely based on the fairy as the standard, although this standard was not what the fairy company looked like now, but it was definitely a mature fairy company. In vain, he was still ambitious, and specially invited personnel who were familiar with each other from the head office to guide, but now he ended up in such a situation. Of course, the shrewd manager understands the interests and disadvantages of the group of people in the fairy company, and he has to learn it too! Li Mengze didn't notice the other party's sadness, he was still asking when the other party had prepared this building, and was greatly admired by this foresight, but unfortunately the listener was in no mood to pay attention to him. This incident was considered by Feng Qingsong to be the biggest failure in his life, although he was praised by someone afterwards, he had already secretly made up his mind to always remember this undeserved mistake!

After seeing the new building, the heads of various departments of the fairy company were even more ecstatic, and they admired the boss even more; As soon as they raised their doubts, the boss told him that a new office building had been chosen, and when they saw that the office building was designed entirely for them, they were full of praise for the boss's "foresight". For such a compliment, of course, Li Mengze laughed at it, after so many things, he has been able to take the credit of others as his own without changing his face. So, before the National Day, the fairy company moved to a new office building, the Fairy Building, which Feng Qingsong had prepared for them a long time ago. All the new and old employees have moved into the new office building, and some of them have not spent a day in the old office! The whole company is pleased with the new office building that bears the company's name, which is 16 floors with a floor area of 1,200 square meters each, divided into two halves, east and west, from the first floor to the eleventh floor for office areas, and the twelfth floor and above for accommodation. Naturally, the fairy company bought the entire building, but only paid 550 million yuan, which was paid when Feng Qingsong was about to despair. The basement of the Fairy Building is a double-storey parking lot, plus the parking lot around the building, which can park nearly 250 cars; The first floor is the office of the security department and other companies and firms, and there is also a special tea restaurant and some other facilities; The External Relations Department is on the second floor, the Personnel Department and the conference room are on the third floor, which also contains the CEO's office, and the Finance Department is also on this floor, because these departments are relatively small; Most of the departments of the management department are on the fourth floor, the company's staff canteen is on the fifth floor, the sixth floor is temporarily the company's classroom, the consulting department, the planning department and the archives room are on the seventh and eighth floors, and the other floors are temporarily idle. There are two elevator systems in the whole building, and the commercial and civil floors are strictly separated, and only the first floor can be accessed from the respective systems. After moving into the new office building, the company carried out another large-scale recruitment, bringing the total number of employees to 186, almost four times the number at the beginning of the company's existence.

Although industry insiders are skeptical of the fairy's thin body, they are more concerned about its planning plan for its companies, and almost none of the critics believe that the fairy company just buys these companies and then allows them to develop freely, "must have their own plans". However, the large-scale investment of the fairy company for more than a year, there is no development plan, there is no news within the company, and several companies have not made any special moves. However, this does not indicate that Fairy Company is a purposeless investment. After the National Day, several steel companies unanimously announced their future development goals, which is obviously earlier than the usual year, and this early development goal is generally considered to be the development plan of the fairy company!

First of all, Jinshui announced that it will increase steel production on a large scale, saying that it will export its steel to the central and western regions of China, relying on its high-quality steel products, and increasing steel sales in the western region with cooperative companies as the object, and the company plans to increase the annual output of crude steel from the existing 35 million tons to 45 million tons. Subsequently, Jinggang Group also announced its production increase plan, planning to increase the annual output from 22 million tons to 30 million tons, in addition to maintaining the share of the North China market, will increase sales in the western region; Now ranked fifth in the country, just put into the fairy Hanyang Iron and Steel Company, also announced that the company's annual output will increase by 7 million tons, so that its annual crude steel output to 22 million tons, in addition to maintaining sales in the central and western markets of China, will increase sales in the South China market, increase the share of the market south of the Yangtze River, the spearhead is directly aimed at entering China's Tucker Group. Kawanishi and Moncy announced plans to reduce production, and the two companies will reduce their annual production from 22 million tons to 15 million tons, and for the part that is not enough to maintain their sales, they will replenish it from partners at preferential prices; At the same time, the two companies also announced that they will transfer some technical personnel to the other three companies, and seconded some scientific and technological personnel from other companies to increase the research and development of existing mineral deposits and enhance the ability to develop and utilize their rare metals. The attitude of "sharing scientific research results and keeping pace in international competition" announced by the five companies is considered to be a symbol of the final formation of the fairy steel group! According to the new development plan, the annual crude steel output of the Fairy Steel Group will rise from the existing 94 million tons to 112 million tons, a total increase of 18 million tons, forming a development strategy focusing on the three major steel companies, and before, the three large steel companies have joined forces to invest US$4 billion in Western Australia with a reserve of 4.5 billion cubic meters of iron-rich ore, beating Tucker Group and other competitors, increasing the group's international reserves of iron ore.

The future development plan of the five steel companies is considered to be a conspiracy of the fairy company, and it is believed to be the result of the fairy company's dominance. Indeed, the mutual cooperation of these cooperative companies of the fairy is conducive to their greater common interests, helps them compete in the Chinese market, and lays a good foundation for competing for the international market. The industry is not surprised by the increase in production of several companies, with its net capital investment of nearly 16 billion US dollars, several steel companies do not expand production is the problem, with sufficient funds, several companies can certainly get rid of the inherent troubles, rise in the wind, down the river; With its abundant funds, it is reasonable to compete for the international market. The production cuts in western Sichuan and Mengxi have puzzled many people, and it is strange that they have increased their investment in scientific research, but those who are familiar with the mining areas of the two companies know that this is the real manifestation of the Fairy Company's great plan. It is not the real intention of the fairy to increase the output of several steel companies, behind this noise, there is a hidden blood of the fairy company, which is the mineral deposits of the two major steel companies in the west! Iron ore in western Sichuan contains a large number of precious and rare metals, but has not been fully utilized, this time by the east wind, trying to solve this problem that has plagued for decades, is the reason for the reduction of production in western Sichuan, and the fairy caused the direct occurrence of the incident; And Moncey is for the same reason. It is reported that the two companies have hired a large number of scientific researchers with high salaries, and the new smelting workshop is about to be built, and the fairy believes that this is also the most fundamental reason for Hanyang's "succumbing", but it has not been proven.

In contrast to the huge actions of the steel company, the newly signed textile company of the fairy company continued to be left to its free repression, except that after moving into the new office building, the fairy invited a large number of people from 27 companies to move in. On the other hand, the fairy company sent large-scale negotiators, and in the last two months of the year, they went to dozens of textile companies to negotiate. The Department of External Relations sent a total of 9 groups of negotiators, with an average of at least four companies to negotiate investment, and a total of 39 large and small textile companies were contacted during the whole tour, involving an investment amount of 40 billion yuan. After receiving the negotiation request from the fairy company, these companies have different mentalities, but they are all nervous, not knowing what this magical "woman" wants to do, whether they are ready to eat themselves, or win-win cooperation? In fact, they have overthought that the fairy company has never been too much for partners, and always hopes to achieve a win-win situation, therefore, many companies can't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they hear the conditions of the negotiators of the fairy company. Of course, there are also some agreements that are quite harsh, mainly because the financial and personnel conditions of the invested companies are too poor, the fairy companies ask the other party to carry out reforms, and the CEOs of the companies who are well aware of their own shortcomings certainly do not let go of this opportunity to blackmail the local government, so as part of the investment, these companies have received special funds from the local government. The local government also understands the plight of these companies, but this is an old problem, relying on their own strength can not be solved, now there is a fairy this external force can be borrowed, of course, also willing to solve this big problem related to the overall situation of the local economy, according to statistics, this time a total of 5 companies received a local financial subsidy of 2 billion yuan.

In more than two months, the fairy company signed a cooperation agreement with 36 textile companies, the total assets of these companies ranged from tens of billions of yuan to billions of yuan, making the total assets reach 180 billion yuan, accounting for 26% of the entire textile industry in the country, and the fixed assets reached 126 billion yuan, standing at 24% of the national market, for which the fairy company invested a total of 37.6 billion yuan; Only 3 companies were unwilling to accept the fairy's terms of negotiation, two of which were private companies and the other was a collective company, but this did not affect the realization of the fairy's goals. After the completion of the new round of negotiations, Fairy Company added 36 more partners, each of whom had a 35% stake in each company.

After two rounds of negotiations, Fairy invested 76 billion yuan and obtained 35% of the shares of each of China's 63 largest textile companies. These 63 companies have total assets of 380 billion yuan, standing at 55% of the total assets of China's textile industry, with fixed assets of 258 billion yuan, standing at 49% of the whole industry, and their products have reached 65% of the total domestic output, while zhan has 76% of China's total exports; In addition to a few large textile companies, almost all large companies have been incorporated into their own portfolio, with an additional investment of 1 billion yuan, but an increase of 4% of the inherent assets and 10% of the market, the harvest is extremely rich.

After these two largest investments, Fairy Company has 65% of China's total textile output and 52% of the world's output in one fell swoop; The export volume has reached 76% of China's and more than 53% of the world's, becoming the world's largest textile company group, and the whole world is shocked!

Before the official signing time of the fairy company and 36 textile companies next year, newspapers and the Internet have invariably put the fairy company's investment in the most prominent position, and have been crowned with "fairy company restructuring of China's textile industry", "how to face China's textile industry union" and other titles, one side of the fairy company reorganization of China's textile industry ecstasy, one side of China's textile industry union worried, one side of China's textile industry group monopoly is worried, one side of China's textile industry group is full of expectations. Some people are happy and some are worried, and in general, the domestic media are more happy than worried, and the international media are more amazed than happy. Governments around the world are also worried about the union of China's textile industry, and some international purchasing groups have commented that they are unwilling to "undermine the good situation of China's textile industry" and hope not to "have a bad impact on the textile market". As the initiator of this event, Fairy Company is nervously coordinating with various textile companies to coordinate their market positioning and international exports, and strive to satisfy each other; But as the initiator of this incident, the CEO of the fairy company is at home with his wife and children to enjoy family fun - he is on vacation again.

In September, it signed investment agreements with 8 of the 15 companies, investing a total of 1.8 billion yuan, becoming a relatively large shareholder of these companies. Of these eight companies, 6 are technology companies, the company's total assets have reached 4.5 billion yuan, fixed assets have reached 2 billion yuan, the fairy company has invested a total of 1.5 billion yuan, zhan has 40% of the shares of 5 companies and 35% of the shares of one company; The other two are commercial companies, and Fairy has invested a total of 300 million yuan, of which Zhanan has 35% of the shares, both of which are the second largest shareholders of the company.

In the company that was subsequently invested, the fairy did not send personnel to the field department, and the personnel sent in advance did not play a very significant role, so that the headquarters thought that it was a waste of the company's resources, and decided to carry out selective expatriate personnel in the future, "the key is to strengthen the company's own development." Fairy Company does not hold a company, does not care about the development direction of the company, most of the companies it invests in are very promising, stable companies, and do not need laymen to point fingers. Fairy Company knows that the company's management experience is lacking, and most of the personnel assigned by the company are mainly learning, hoping that these people can play a role in promoting the future development of the company.

The fairy company is not powerful, she just relies on her huge funds to grandstand, which does not make her own development more beneficial, and if she can't change this situation, she will always be a visitor to the mall. In the future, the fairy company must be self-centered and lead the development of its own companies in order to achieve a social status that is consistent with her strength, but when will this day come?
