Remember [Martial Arts β Γ· in a second? Textβη½.], update fast, no pop-ups, free to read!
"Probably Mr. Zhang misunderstood what I meant, my interest does not mean to work in the company, but to be interested in this company!"
Chen Bo emphasized it again, but Lao Zhang seemed to be a little confused, and he didn't think about things like the company's shareholders at all.
"Re-acquainted, contemptible Chen Bo, chairman of the board of directors of Pangu Technology Group."
Chen Bo took out his business card this time and handed it to Zhang Jindong, who was secretly suspicious.
"Chairman of the Board? So young! Zhang Jindong took the business card and was taken aback, this is too reversed, and this company has never heard of it, so he doesn't know what it does.
Pangu Group is mainly engaged in Internet services, and its products include Tencent QQ, the largest instant chat tool in China, Tencent Xun, the third most trafficked portal in the country, as well as Sky Network, Beautiful Music Network, Dingdong Network and other products. And we are working with Lenovo to develop a music player, which is expected to be launched next year! β
"I see! You are the president who scolded a Yahoo reporter at the Lenovo investment press conference! When I saw the report, I thought to myself that this person was so bold, but I didn't expect the real person to be right in front of me, which was really disrespectful. β
"I hope Mr. Zhang doesn't blame me for concealing my identity, just to do my friend a favor, Ye Tianhao is an independent director of my group."
Zhang Jindong's face was a little embarrassed, he only got up to him when he saw it, and he wanted to recruit the other party, but he didn't expect it to be a rich and handsome man in the Internet industry. It's no wonder that he always called Mr. Ye just now, instead of Mr. Ye.
Although he doesn't know much about the Internet industry, can he be a partner with Lenovo?
"No, no, it's me who has no eyes. Don't call Mr. Zhang one by one, I'm crazy about how old you are, and in private, you call my brother to give me face. β
It's a question of how old you are, it's a teenager! Chen Bo said in his heart, who is taking advantage of whom?
"That's a good idea, my brother is settling accounts, we are talking about business. Suning's brand is well-known in the whole Jiangnan Province, I am very optimistic, if there is an opportunity, I hope to be able to develop together with Suning. β
Chen Bo, a person who does the Internet, so covets home appliance chain enterprises, mainly because of the layout of future e-commerce, like Jingdong's self-built warehousing and logistics model, which consumes too much money, and may not be profitable for ten or eight years, and it can only continue to rely on the support of the capital market behind it.
In the future, Suning will be able to better solve the problem of e-commerce in terms of timeliness through the warehousing, logistics, and store system of thousands of stores. Different from Gome's blind expansion, Suning's path has always been relatively stable, and now it is very suitable for Chen Bo's planning when there are not many stores.
Although Chen Bo also relies on the capital market, he can ensure that he is in control and will not be carried away by the hot money of investors.
"Suning does have a plan to set up a joint-stock company now, but I still want to hear what Brother Chen's good reform opinions on the company are?"
The meaning of Zhang Jindong's words is already obvious, if you want to come in, you can, don't refuse. But you have to be at least qualified to come in, and you can't take advantage of it for nothing.
If you want to cooperate, there are only two forms, either smash him with money, or support resources.
"Solving the construction of logistics and warehousing informatization and building a 3C digital future sales model is not only a matter of Lenovo's entry, but also Dell, HP, Acer, and BenQ, and I can do my part, and the MP3 music player I will launch next year will also give priority to Suning Electric."
With a good cooperative relationship with Lenovo, is Digital China's problem still a problem? It's nothing more than what kind of ex-factory price you can get.
"At the same time, I am also one of the shareholders of Pengcheng Panke Real Estate, which can help Suning enter the Lingnan market." Chen Bo saw that Zhang Jindong was still frowning, thinking about the feasibility of this problem, Chen Bo threw out the last straw that crushed the camel.
If you want to talk about resources, the biggest reliance should be on the Internet, but now the traditional industry is relatively dismissive of network products, this thinking can not be changed in a short time, and ant search has not yet been launched, and it cannot show his instant combat power, so let's press it first.
Panke Real Estate has been entrenched in Lingnan for a long time, although it was mostly residential in the past, how can a mature community lack the demand for home appliances? The home appliance chain does not have to be built in a commercial block, even if a store of several hundred square meters is enough.
This is not a matter at all for Panke, where can Lao Mo and his son squeeze out a few storefronts?
As long as Zhang Jindong has the heart to expand to the whole country, he will definitely not refuse, Lingnan is the largest province in the country's economy, although the per capita GDP is slightly inferior to Jiangnan Province, but the total economic volume and population base are very large, and the consumption level is also very high.
At the same time, most of the factories of household appliance brands are concentrated in Lingnan, which can also save a lot of logistics costs, and fools are unwilling.
Lao Zhang immediately smiled, this is definitely good news, you must know that local protectionism is prevalent in China, if there is no guide to enter the local area, unless the giant crocodile, otherwise it really can't withstand the erosion of local enterprises.
However, Suning's shareholders' meeting will not be held until June, and now it is only an agreement of intent that Chen Bo intends to contribute 40 million yuan in his personal name, which is less than 5 million US dollars, which can only be pulled out from the BP fund.
Because Suning is preparing to land on the Shanghai A-share market, it will carry out share reform from now on, and foreign shareholding is a little troublesome. However, it will take at least three years to be officially listed, and the current volume does not meet the requirements of the exchange, and even if it can be listed, it is still a small and medium-sized sector.
The whole company is Lao Zhang's alone, so since he can nod his head, there is no problem, 40 million funds are really a lot, the market value of the entire Suning is not more than 100 million, and Chen Bo requires a minimum of 25% of the holding, this condition is already a bit premium.
Other specific things have to be talked about next time, this time the main task is to help Ye Tianhao solve the channel problem, catch Suning, the big fish is to hug the grass and beat the rabbit, it has become a natural joy, not to learn from Ma Yun's classmates, to do the asset-light operation of the e-commerce platform.
Although Jinling is very close to Hangzhou, if there is no extra time, Chen Bo really wants to meet this big coffee, but as long as he is in the Internet industry, there will always be opportunities in the future.
"Xiaoqing, you have been in the company for a while now, how do you feel adapted?"
After Chen Bo returned to Pengcheng, he was ready to have a showdown with Qin Xiaoqing in a serious manner, and he could no longer tolerate her carelessness.
"It's good, it's interesting. Mr. Chen, are you dissatisfied? β
Although Qin Xiaoqing was very happy with the job of an assistant, he still sensed some dissatisfaction with Chen Bo.
"I don't think you're suitable for this job for the time being, and now you have two choices, first, transfer to Galaxy Picking Culture, I have communicated with Sister Hua, and she will rearrange your job. Second, you choose to be an actor, you must also know Sister Hua's ability, and the company is not short of dramas, and she will definitely support you. β
It's better to engage in the job of being an actor that suits you, Chen Bo wants her to choose the second one, at least the assistant can't do it, and she can go back to work as a movie queen, she has no shortage of acting skills, and she is a powerful faction of the new generation.
Of course, Qin Xiaoqing is self-aware of his work ability, and he has worked for less than a month, and he has made no mistakes. But this boss is still relatively easy to talk to, and I haven't seen him get angry, and he has always been encouraging.
But since she said so today, it must be the result of careful consideration, and there must be disappointment in her heart, she was already arrogant, and she didn't care, so she said.
"I'll go to Sister Hua's and have a look."
"When you want to be an actor, Galaxy is always open for you, don't book the wrong ticket this time."
Chen Bo saw that she was not displeased, and behaved very rationally, so he teased her by the way.
Liu Yuan has returned to work, and Huang Yang has recently been prosecuted by the prosecutor on charges of drug possession, drug use, intentional injury and other crimes, and what awaits him will be the punishment of the law.
Although she left the rest of the month, Liu Yuan adjusted her state well, and actively and enthusiastically devoted herself to her busy work, and the sky network has been handed over to others to be responsible, while she is concentrating on the human resources work of Ant Search.
"Now, you see it. I need a new assistant now. β
Chen Bo had no choice but to ask her for help, he was used to the days when he had an assistant, and he was really not used to having no one to help.
All employees need to sign off on the resignation of Liu Yuan, the human resources director, and she is naturally clear about this matter.
"Do you remember that Zhou Botao?"
"That master's student at Sun Yat-sen University? He's coming to the company? β
It wasn't Liu Yuan who mentioned it, Chen Bo really couldn't remember this person, and he didn't usually notice him in the company.
"According to what you mean, he is rotating in various departments. It's been a lot of hard work, and he's changed a lot, so you might as well meet him when you have time. β
"Then call him over, you don't usually need to work so hard, just make a plan and hand it over to the people below to execute, pay attention to the combination of work and rest."
Liu Yuan now puts all her energy on work, and she has to find time to take care of the children, although the unreliable husband has no chance to pester her, but working so hard is not good for her health, when will the work be over? Just like an athlete on the field, it is necessary to distribute one's physical energy reasonably.
When Zhou Botao appeared in front of Chen Bo again, under the influence of the environment of the entire company, his intuition was like a different person, and he was much more cheerful than when he met for the first time.
After all, he is also a high-end intellectual, and his IQ cannot be low, and he answered some of the questions raised by Chen Bo very decently.
So the third assistant in this month was born, and when the inspection period is over, he can be promoted to general assistant. That level can be compared to the vice president, and Chen Bo doesn't plan to let him get involved in his other industries, just take charge of the relevant affairs of Pangu Group.
