Chapter 231: Whose Company 2
Li Yikang is very clear about his identity, he is the general manager of the fairy headquarters, but he is not the president nor the chairman, let alone his father's "boss", he is a manager, without the ownership of the company, and he also knows that there may be only one person who can be called the "boss" in the history of the fairy, even if he can become the head of the family in the future, he will not own this world's top consortium. Of course, he will not be tied by this, because the general manager of the fairy is very special, more effective than the presidents of other companies, and even has more authority than those chairmen. In fact, the fairy headquarters has maintained polite respect for the new general manager, and everyone has been polite to him since he "ran errands" in the company, but the people in charge have learned his ruthlessness for the first time. Zhucheng is considered to be the foundation work of the new general manager, everyone recognizes his boldness and ruthlessness, this is a "don't die" will spend money guy, because it was the boss himself proposed, prompting the ministries to strongly support the project, which ensures the smooth follow-up appropriation, but everyone still has some concerns about him, and the responsible people are cautiously staring at his next project...... Li Yikang is naturally aware of the concerns of the adults in the headquarters, and in fact, he has no intention of increasing the company's expenses, and in his understanding, he has now reached the limit of overdraft; At the same time, for him, straightening out the company's interpersonal relationships has reached the point where it is urgent, because for the fairy, as the supreme leader, he is still a stranger, and everyone does not know him yet, although he is not familiar with the fairy either. The fairy is too huge, it was only a small part of it before, and there are many more things that need to be slowly experienced, and these things have taken almost half a year! Therefore, it was not until September, that is, after the formation of Fairy Energy, that he presided over the all-staff meeting of the headquarters for the first time!
"Hello everyone!" Looking at almost all the headquarters employees in the slightly crowded auditorium, Li Yikang felt a little emotional, this is the first time he has presided over a meeting of all employees since he took over the company for a few months, and he is still a little unaccustomed to it. These employees range in age, some are over the age of six, some are middle-aged and young, and even some new recruits in their 20s, all of them are staring at him, "First of all, on behalf of my father, I would like to thank you all for your hard work over the years, thank you for your support for my work over the past few months, thank you!" ”
The conference room immediately burst into warm applause, no matter what, this interview is interesting enough, although there are no flowery words, but it speaks to everyone's hearts, and no matter what, the new general manager should also be given some face, even if it is an encouragement!
"I'm the second oldest in the family, and I don't like red tape, in the future, everyone will call me 'Yikang', I don't dare to damage my father's reputation, as before, give a little face, when there are outsiders, call 'Mr. Li', everyone says okay? No objections, it's okay! The second thing I want to do today is to celebrate the founding of our energy company. Before the words fell, the whole conference room was already thunderous applause, especially some old employees and middle-aged employees, they agreed with this statement the most, so to speak, almost everyone agreed, because almost more than 90% of the employees have experienced the energy pain, seen the failure of this project, and saw the success of this project!
"I understand everyone's feelings, this is our re-victory after the defeat of the fairy, the fairy is powerful, no one can defeat us! Of course, we can't beat ourselves! Li Yikang aroused everyone's interest, but led everyone into contemplation, the fairy is very powerful, this is known to everyone, but will the powerful fairy fail because of its own reasons, and what kind of failure will be self-digging, and what is the intention of the general manager? It doesn't take much time, and soon everyone has an answer, "I agree with the company's investment policy, here, I apologize to everyone, because of my reasons for the increase in anxiety for everyone and the company, the general manager apologizes, I promise, the company's future investment is still backed by actual financial resources, please believe." In the next few years, the company's financial situation may be more tight, and I hope you will bear with it! ”
This conference is basically to introduce himself to all the staff, face-to-face with employees at all levels, and dispel everyone's worries and curiosity about him. In the headquarters, although his position is high, his age is relatively young, and many meritorious veterans are relatively old, although it is said that heroes are young...... And the Li family's inherent civilian style also makes him have to maintain the image of a company that is close to the people! This meeting was followed by another meeting, which was of a relatively high level, including the heads of various departments of the headquarters, the general managers of its subsidiaries, etc.; Although the number of participants has been strictly limited, due to the large size of the company, the number of participants is still quite large. These participants included the heads of the six major subsidiaries, such as Wang Yifei, the general manager of the food company, Zhou Ruquan, the general manager of the energy company, and the top leaders of other subsidiaries, as well as the heads of various departments of the headquarters that have expanded a lot, and dozens of people gathered together. Although the CEOs of the subsidiaries who received the notice of the meeting were all extraordinary and powerful, they all rushed to the headquarters in accordance with the specified time. The scale of the three major departments is huge, and the initial assets of the energy company are more than 1 trillion yuan, which can be said to be the fourth largest department of the company. But whether it is Peng Xuefeng, who manages the electronics company, or the boss who manages the other three departments, or even Wang Yifei or Wang Hai, after arriving at the headquarters, they all feel a little dwarf. There is no way, they are a prince outside, above 10,000 people, but when they return to the headquarters, they are helpless against the ministers, many of them directly manage them, and at the same time, there are some people in the headquarters who have a lot of money, such as the financial department, which is not weaker than them at all!
"I'm bringing you back to introduce some companies." Finance Minister Luo Ning first spoke, nominally only the head of finance of the headquarters, but in fact responsible for monitoring the financial situation of each company, and the main issue of this meeting is also how to spend money and the issue of headquarters funds, of course, this is all agreed by some people first, "Everyone knows that the formation of energy companies has achieved the company's goals for decades, but it has also caused financial constraints." Mr. Zhou, I'm not crying poor to you, the actual situation! ”
"Minister Luo, just say whatever you want, what else can I do with you?" Zhou Ruquan took the conversation, he also knows more about the company's situation, and has been dealing with the finance department more frequently recently, so to speak, the person he is most familiar with in the entire headquarters is the finance department, and he naturally knows the temperament of the finance minister.
"Yikang, let's talk about it!" Luo Ning kicked the ball to the general manager, because the next words are more difficult to say, and those words should not be said by him, the power of the finance department is actually not much, "just collect the accounts", this is a famous saying said by a certain old-timer.
"Come on!" Li Yikang kicked the ball to Jiang Jiannan next to him, as a veteran of the company's two worlds, he has served as the head of the planning department for decades, and he should also be responsible for the overall work, but unfortunately Minister Jiang is older and has limited energy, so he ignores the ball, "Then I'll tell you, the finance department said that the company has no money, of course, the main thing is to spend too much!" The industrial city project can not be stopped, so it has to be properly coordinated by various systems, and what requirements do the companies have, let's put it forward first! Xuefeng, you say it first. "Li Yikang is very simple, but there is a suspicion of pushing the responsibility to the finance department, everyone listen, it's not that I said that the company has no money, it's the opinion of the finance department; Of course, for the sake of insurance, he first set the tone, the industrial city project cannot be stopped, and the rest is up to you!
"Electronics company...... According to the plan, there is no problem with the existing funds to maintain the stability of the domestic market, but the problem is in India, is it additional investment? Seeing everyone looking at himself, Peng Xuefeng was a little hesitant, he didn't know that the headquarters would come to such a hand, originally, according to the plan, the domestic electronics company is a big profit, additional investment is impossible, he is now most concerned about the Indian side, does the headquarters have any new instructions?
"The Indian side will be discussed later. Mr. Cao, what are your requirements? Li Yikang was noncommittal to Peng Xuefeng's answer and turned to Cao Kecheng, general manager of the new material company.
"The new material company is in a good situation now, some time ago there was a lot of investment, strong and strong, no special requirements!" is no more inexperienced than his young peers, the "old treacherous and cunning" Cao Kecheng is very simple, how can he be said to be the same era as Li Mengze, how can he be caught by these little tricks, of course, in the current situation, he can't make any requests, even if he puts it forward, it is unrealistic.
"Mr. Wen, the biological company, what are your requirements?" Li Yikang was very satisfied, and turned to Wen Shaozhong, the general manager of the biotechnology company.
"In recent years, the company's benefits have been good, there is no big problem in China, and it can cooperate with the strategic requirements of the headquarters!" Wen Shaozhong felt a little funny, this guy made it clear that he was using their "three old departments" to make oil and water, the headquarters had no money, and they wouldn't make money, so they still had to express it!
"Mr. Wang, what are the requirements of the basic parts company?" Li Yikang is in a good mood, the old three departments are more cooperative, the main problems can be said to have been solved, and he speaks much more briskly.
"The company's profits are good, and the domestic market has also peaked, is it possible to open a branch in India as well?" Wang Hai is very envious of the CEOs with the same identity, one by one to the branch to India, because the investment in basic parts is relatively small, even if the headquarters is difficult, it should be able to pay out, so as not to drag down the headquarters finances.
"It may be more troublesome, and the Indians will not agree that we control the market." Seeing Li Yikang looking at himself, Jiang Jiannan knew that this was asking for his own opinion, and it was up to him to take action, and the planning department also considered this aspect, but in the end he gave up, the investment was less, it didn't play a role, and it didn't conform to the image of a fairy, so it was a bit too much; And if there is more investment, the Indian side may not agree, India is not as good as China, and will not allow foreign companies to control its own market, even fairies!
"If we can control the Indian market, it's not bad, and the External Relations Department will first test the tone of the Indian side." Li Yikang didn't want to spoil Wang Hai's happiness, to be honest, if he could, the headquarters would really be willing to do this again, and this would also help the company fully contact Indian society. "Mr. Zhou, you don't have any requirements, do you?" The requirements of the old industry are minimal, so Li Yikang is also full of expectations for energy companies.
Listening to Li Yikang's "persecution" of everyone's statement, Zhou Ruquan naturally understood his intentions, the headquarters has the development plan of each company, especially now that funds are tight, this kind of "persecutive" demand method makes him feel a little funny, how can he put up such a scoundrel "general manager", it seems to be more similar to someone in the legend, although he has never worked with someone. However, the energy company has just been established, no more than other companies, and the headquarters cannot ignore the energy company, "the company has more debts, the book funds are more tight, and it is more difficult to recover arrears. ”
"How much does it cost?" Li Yikang went straight to the point, and the headquarters also intended to give blood transfusions to the energy company, and he didn't care if he couldn't buy it, which was not in line with the character of the fairy and the company's development strategy.
"100 billion, 100 billion would be a lot!" Zhou Ruquan knows very well that the headquarters is short of funds, has spent a lot of money, and has a lot of loans, even if there will be no shortage of projects to spend money in the future, before coming to the meeting, he has been prepared, even if the general manager does not mention it, he will also put it forward; Of course, this figure is still relatively conservative.
"Okay." Li Yikang and Luo Ning glanced at each other, and both sides agreed with this request, "The headquarters has crossed 1500, don't be too aggrieved, if you can not take out a loan in the near future, try not to lend!" ”
"1500, that's enough!" Zhou Ruquan didn't expect the headquarters to be so happy, in this case, it can also transfer 150 billion, although it is not much, but it has exceeded their expectations, besides, this is likely to be only a part of the initial funds, and there will be more support in the future, it seems that the courage of young people is really not small!
"Uncle Wang, Mr. Wang, what are the requirements of the food company?" Li Yikang turned to the last one, the relationship between the two is not ordinary, the other party is the father-in-law of his younger brother, and he doesn't seem to have a very good impression of them. His words also made everyone in the conference room laugh, diluting some of the feelings of being "bullied".
The scoundrel's face forced them, the feudal officials, to express their attitude, and what they hoped most was that "the situation is very good, and they don't need the support of the headquarters", but he can't just let the headquarters go. He knows that the headquarters is short of money, but he doesn't think that the headquarters can't get money, he has a soft spot for food companies, although he is now working for the Li family, but he prefers to treat this company as his own LAI operation, with the support of the headquarters' capital and social conditions, it has rapidly developed into a large company. Although I said that I was concerned about the fairy, I didn't really feel her energy, I just took it for granted that it was an incredible company, and then I really integrated into it, and I realized that she was terrible, and it can even be said that it has reached the point of horror, and sometimes even fights for fairy food, there are such good conditions, and it has developed into this way for so many years! Therefore, he really wanted to do something, "The company has a good momentum, but the market share is too small, and if the headquarters conditions allow, it will be better to make some additional investment!" ”
Li Yikang is most afraid of facing a food company, he did not work in the headquarters before, and he can't get in touch with the company's development core, but now he knows what the so-called "not paying attention to" is all about, even if it is said to be abuse, it is not an exaggeration, just to extract profits, and has never allocated a penny, even in the past six months, there has been no additional large investment! But now it is different, especially under the management of the current general manager, the headquarters is embarrassed to refuse some reasonable requests, not to mention that the company's profits are indeed good, so that the attitude of some doubters has gradually changed. Although Wang Yifei did not force the head office to express his position, there was a sound in his words, and everyone present understood the relationship between them.
"Food companies are also the focus of the company's development, and now that the integration is complete, it's time to grow! However, there are 26 branches, there is no need to acquire them, first make the existing company bigger and stronger! In this way, within three years, the headquarters will not extract profits from food companies, but can also appropriately increase some investment to enhance the company's competitiveness, and in addition, if there is an opportunity, acquire a few companies in India and push the business over! "For the first time, the fairy headquarters admitted their investment problems, the first time to correct the name of the food company, and it was announced by the general manager Qi himself at the top meeting, from then on, this industry is no longer a chicken rib, and it is truly included in the overall development of the fairy!
"Okay, with the support of the headquarters, the food company will definitely be able to become bigger and stronger!" Wang Yifei was overjoyed, in the first two years, the headquarters extracted a lot of profits from food companies, and it was during this period of time that a lot of profits were also extracted, which made food companies very tight. He also knows that the headquarters is tight, and it would be good to be able to retain profits now, and at the same time, he does not expect to make any more acquisitions, and a few companies can expand the scale again. Of course, the main thing is that the headquarters finally pays attention to this industry, which is the biggest blessing for tens of thousands of employees of food companies!
"Okay, you don't want money, it's not that the headquarters won't give it!" Li Yikang let out a sigh of relief, and finally settled these people, and the whole person relaxed, ignoring the appearance of several general managers gritting their teeth! "The headquarters is short of money now, and the new investment projects will not be mentioned for the time being, and we will talk about it after the past few years! The company's business strategy is still the same as before, try to achieve debt-free operation and maintain a strong momentum of development! The headquarters now has three development priorities, the first is the energy company and the food company, especially the energy company, must stand still, Mr. Zhou, your burden is not light, the headquarters will try to give funds and other aspects of support. Second, the construction of the industrial city, we must ensure that the funds are in place, according to the plan of construction, we can not make Xixing Company embarrassed, ministers, general managers don't make me embarrassed! The third is the development and expansion of the Indian branches, our development momentum in India is good, profits should be kept in India as much as possible, on the one hand, to expand market share, enhance the scale of the company, on the other hand, the camera into Southeast Asia and Africa market, when appropriate, the headquarters can also give support! As for Sisko, there is no need to withdraw profits, on the one hand, to develop the European market, and on the other hand, to hit North America from Sisko. The burden of domestic companies may be heavier, Minister Jiang, come on! ”
Everyone was not surprised by Li Yikang's words, because this is the company's established development policy, which was basically set by the previous person in charge, and everyone is very clear, it can also be said to be the development policy for many years or even many years later, but if it is only for these problems, there is really no need to recall all of them to the headquarters, and the conference call can also solve the problem, even if there is no meeting, everyone will not go in the wrong direction. Therefore, everyone realizes that the next may be the focus of this meeting, for the importance of the headquarters planning department, they have heard, if the planning department considers itself to be the second key department of the company, other departments do not dare to claim to be the first key department, the powerful consulting department or the sensitive financial department can not compete, at the same time, we have served as the minister for more than 30 years of old man, but also very respectful!
"The development momentum of Japanese and Korean companies in North America is good, the Far East companies have technological advantages, and the situation of our companies is also good. The war is over, take advantage of the east wind, let's also go to North America to break through, when the time is right, we can join forces with Japan or North American companies! Let's take a look at these materials. Jiang Jiannan gave a brief introduction, and at the same time distributed some paper materials to the general managers and ministers.
"We're joining forces with them?" Peng Xuefeng was a little surprised, the young man was not as good as some other old oilmen who were also surprised, but his identity was special, and everyone understood his impulse. To be honest, the headquarters actually allowed to join forces with international companies such as Japan, the United States and Europe, which was very unthinkable before, which was absolutely unimaginable before, not to mention that the relationship with Japanese and American counterparts is very awkward now!
"The company's foundation in North America is too poor, even if it is combined with domestic companies, it is difficult to form competitiveness in a short period of time, the North American market is now very competitive, European and American companies are slightly weaker in technology, Japanese companies are not well funded, we have a lot of choice. However, although our purpose is to enter the North American market and prevent them from penetrating the Indian market! Jiang Jiannan continued to explain. The foundation of the fairy in North America is not generally poor, due to a variety of reasons, there was no attempt to enter at all, and now due to the disruption of Japanese companies, the competition is quite fierce, which increases the difficulty of entering, only through cooperation to enter, this is also a big change for the fairy, to a large extent, it has changed the consistent style!
"In this case, I am in favor of cooperating with Japanese or North American companies, although it is more difficult, and it will not impact the Indian market, and the European company has a larger market in India!" Cao Kecheng expressed his opinion, for fairies, the Indian market is not to be shared, their market advantage will not be lost in the short term, but this depends on protecting as much as possible. Generally speaking, the headquarters has a lot of decision-making power, but the specific operations are subordinate subsidiaries, so they also have a lot of say, at least to consider everyone's opinions.
"You can cooperate with anyone, we are limited to North America, as for India, just try to have the advantage, and we can't stop them." Li Yikang does not have great ambitions, he understands that the center of everyone's anxiety is on India, and hopes to monopolize the Indian market as much as possible, and he is more open-minded. Today, the company has a high market share in India, but to be honest, it is impossible to keep the opponent out forever, and one day, the Indians will accept those companies again, "One purpose is to make money quickly, and these loans will all have to be repaid by domestic companies!" ”
