The man in the black suit is called Yin Zibo, the executive vice president of Crown Home Furnishing Company, 31 years old this year.

Yin Zibo is quite handsome, with white skin, high nose bridge, double eyelids, big eyes, picturesque long eyebrows, raised eyebrows, red lips and white teeth, full cheeks, looking forward to the romance, "a natural coquettish, all in the eyebrows, all kinds of styles in life, all the corners of the eyebrows", men with this kind of eyes and eyebrows are most suitable for standing on the street flying women, which also happens to be Yin Zibo's favorite and best at doing, plus high-end clothes, Ferrari in hand. Whenever Yin Zibo waited for a red light at the intersection with an open canopy, he would hook up with the beautiful woman on the side of the road with his eyes to get into the car, hooking one tick and one accurate, almost never empty.

But at this moment, there were no women on the left and right, Yin Zibo held a cigarette in his right hand, and said as he walked: "He Gang told me before the National Day that his 28-year-old niece, who graduated from an MBA in the United States and worked in an investment bank in the United States, has returned, and will come to the company to report to work on the 8th." ”

Walking on the left side of Yin Zibo, wearing a casual suit is the CEO of Xinye Investment Co., Ltd., Ye Ling.

Ye Ling was just over 33 years old at this time, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a straight nose and thin lips, a white complexion, a height of more than one meter eight, wide shoulders and a straight back, a thin waist and long legs, plus a light-colored casual suit, like a jade tree in the wind at night: "Well, how to say it." ”

"What else can I say, all kinds of blows. Yin Zibo sneered: "Actually, who doesn't know, He Gang is from the countryside next to Beijing, he has 5 brothers and sisters in his family, all of whom eat idle meals in the company, and his nephews and nieces are hanging Lang Dang one by one, where did he come out with such an eldest sister who is the deputy director, the niece who graduated from the MBA in the United States." ”

's mother is the deputy director, and her daughter graduated from the American MBA, which touched Ye Ling's heart slightly, but was immediately pressed down by him, the past has been buried, and Ye Ling doesn't want to think about it for a second;

"Sister, let's just say that. All the female deputy directors of Beijing, I wish I was my aunt. Ye Ling said lightly.

"I wish they were my mother-in-law. Yin Zibo was sarcastic, but immediately frowned slightly, "I thought so at first, he was trying to prevent the people on my side from sitting in that position, so he temporarily pulled out such a niece, but last week I asked one of his fellow villagers, only to know that He Gang and his eldest sister have a really extraordinary relationship, He Gang can't be regarded as relying on her to start a family, but it can be regarded as relying on her to carry him." ”

Ye Ling was slightly surprised: "He Gang is indeed good at relationships, this eldest sister is his distant relative?"

"It's not. Yin Zibo shook his head, "According to his fellow village, the female director once went to the county where He Gang's family was the county magistrate. After graduating from high school, He Gang went to serve as a soldier, and after returning from the army, he transferred to the county government, because he learned to drive in the army, he became a driver in the county government, and it is estimated that he drove the car for this female county magistrate. A few years later, the female county magistrate was transferred back to Beijing. Then He Gang began to set up a factory in the village, and it is said that the female county magistrate helped him a lot, such as applying for loans in the agricultural credit cooperative, building factories in the village, and supplying water and electricity, all of which were helped by the county magistrate to greet him in the county, and may have introduced him to suppliers and customers. But He Gang still collapsed the factory. ”

After the factory collapsed, he came to Beijing, and the county magistrate seemed to be still a director in the city bureau at that time, and he didn't have much real power, so he couldn't help him much, so he introduced him to a job driving trucks for shopping malls. Later, the female director went to the district to be the district chief or something, and He Gang began to rent a counter in the mall to sell goods, and she may have borrowed the capital, and she may have helped get the counter. At that time, it is estimated that He Gang did not dare to call the eldest sister of the family, it must be a district head. Later, the female district chief returned to the city bureau and became the deputy director, He Gang's business became bigger and bigger, and he finally became a billionaire, so he changed his name to the eldest sister, making it look like a mother. The director's daughter has also become a niece, a niece of mine, a graduate of an MBA from a top university in the United States, a world-famous investment bank, 28 years old, with an annual salary of 80,000 US dollars, very proud, as if it was really his own niece. ”

With an annual salary of more than $80,000, she is at most a (VP assistant) in an American investment bank, and she has not even become a VP. After graduating from MBA at the age of 28, she has worked in investment banking for 3-4 years at most, even if she graduated from a bachelor's degree and engaged in related work, the total number of years of work is not long, and her business ability can be imagined. Ye Ling smiled a little contemptuously, but quickly put away her smile: "However, it seems that this female deputy director is He Gang's nobleman, even if it is not without her, He Gang would not be where He Gang is today, but she has also helped him a lot, and He Gang must be very grateful to her." Her daughter is coming to your company now, and she will be his most hardcore cronies. ”

Yin Zibo doesn't know what it means, but VP understands, isn't it that VIP lacks an "I", which means: I'm not included. Grandma's, Ye Ling, you kid is here to show off foreign literature again.

But Yin Zibo couldn't stop Ye Ling from showing off, so he nodded: "That's right, it's his people, the descendants." And I don't know if he meant that, not letting my people enter the securities department."

Both of them stopped talking, thinking all the way.

Yin Zibo's ancestral home is Dongyang, Zhejiang. In that place in Dongyang, starting from the Tang Dynasty, the male heirs of every household, regardless of whether they are rich or poor, have to touch the wood carving knife twice, grow up a little, the children of the poor family learn to do wood carving, the children of the rich family learn to sell wood carving, Yin Zibo's father Yin Bai is learning wood carving, the craft is actually the same (Yin Zibo's judgment, but his father himself does not think so), but Yin Bai is very talented in business, after the apprenticeship is completed, he began to work, in the village to carve the wood carving bed for marriage (the traditional marriage of Zhejiang girls), after a few years he hired a helper, opened a workshop, and became a small boss。

The workshop began to do Dongyang's traditional boxwood carving, but it didn't take long for Yin Bai to realize that the traditional precious wood carving handicrafts are not as good as the screen door carved out of the general solid wood, the cost is low, the price is cheap, and it is easy to sell; and then soon found that the wood carving screen and wood carving door are not as much in demand as the wood carving furniture; and finally found that the solid wood furniture that is not carved is easier to make and the cost is lower and the thing is easier to sell. Anyway, the process of Yin Zibo's father waking up all the way is the process of turning a small workshop into a big workshop.

Yin Zibo's father did not graduate from primary school, and he didn't know two baskets of watermelons, but he could endure hardships, people were very honest, never made shoddy, shoddy, and woodcarving workshop bosses such as stealing beams and changing pillars often used tricks, and the furniture produced in the factory was genuine, well-made, durable, so the reputation was very good. In less than ten years, he has accumulated a lot of customers, and He Gang is one of them, and he is also his biggest big customer. At that time, He Gang already had two or three furniture showrooms of more than 10,000 square meters in Beijing, and Yin Zibo's father was also He Gang's largest supplier.

Making solid wood furniture, especially handmade wood carved furniture, is very constrained by raw materials and construction periods, and gradually Yin Zibo's father's goods began to be in short supply, and Yin Zibo's father began to be distressed. Who doesn't want to make more money, but the more money you make, the more you ship, handmade wood carving furniture, even if it is solid wood furniture without carving, is a labor-intensive industry, and people who work must have basic skills. But mortals have a little craftsmanship, they will have capital, but mortals will not be too easy to manage if they have capital, Yin Zibo's father soon found that although the business is good, he can no longer expand, and he will not be able to manage it again, and if he can't manage it, the quality will decline, and finally it will affect his reputation.

When Yin Bai couldn't expand, it was also the time when He Gang's supply channels were generally problematic, because of the rapid development of China's economy, the prosperity of the housing industry, and the rapid expansion of the furniture market.

The end result was that Yin Bai's furniture factory and He Gang's furniture store joined forces to establish this crown home furnishing company, which was called Dongyang Crown Furniture Company at that time. The two bosses each own 50% of the shares.

Because He Gang graduated from high school, his education level is much higher than Yin Zibo's father, and he was born in the army, mixed in the officialdom (the county government is a driver), he is good at socializing, his management ability is also strong, and his personality is hearty and atmospheric, so He Gang became the first boss and Yin Bai became the second boss. He Gang manages sales and opens up the market, and Yin Bai pipes produce and supervise quality. Both of them are very honest and honest, He Gang is optimistic and hearty, magnanimous, Yin Bai is simple and honest, and is willing to suffer small losses. Both of them are not calculating people, they can tolerate each other, so the cooperation is late, highly compatible, and the company has developed rapidly.

Another ten years have passed, and now the crown home furnishing company has more than 5 billion total assets, more than 3 billion net assets, two production bases in Beijing and Zhejiang, Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Guangzhou and other big cities have its best furniture city, which is already the No1 in China's solid wood antique furniture industry.

He Gang is now the CEO of the crown, in his 40s, is in the prime of life, ambitious, and wants to make great progress, not only to occupy a leading position in China's solid wood antique furniture industry, but also to actively explore overseas markets, and the export of European-style solid wood antique furniture will be the strategic direction of the company's future development. And Yin Bai is already in his 50s, although he thinks that he is still very late, "Lao Ji is in the bush, and his ambition is thousands of miles", but in fact, his physical strength and thinking have begun to keep up. Fortunately, my son has grown up, shrewd and capable, practical and cautious, and his education level is higher than himself.

Yin Bai has a successor, so he made his son the executive vice president early, and as for himself, Yin Bai gave himself a foreign title: CTO - technical director.

He Gang looked at the sky speechlessly: We are selling furniture, not computer software.

Originally, He Gang and Yin Bai were one person with half of the company's shares, one person was in charge of one stall, and the two of them made a fortune according to the model of peasant entrepreneurs, and each of them settled their relatives, friends, fellow villagers, comrades-in-arms, brothers-in-law, sisters-in-law, and distant cousins' boyfriends under their own command. The two of them each arranged their own people, understood each other, did not interfere with each other, were clearly distinguished, and had nothing to do with each other. Yin Po put his son on the throne of executive vice president in this way, and he did not retire (it is indeed too young to retire) to manage production as usual, and suddenly the problem came out

Yin Zibo began to learn wood carving at the age of 15 (He Gang told his cronies behind his back that Yin Zibo can apprentice to the master and obviously the master has released the water), the choice of wood, the process of wood carving, and the production process of furniture are well understood, and He Gang himself, at most, will only look at the quality of the finished product, if Yin Zibo and his father are in charge of production together, He Gang will not have an opinion. However, Yin Zibo is also very sensitive to the market trends of furniture styles, even more sensitive to smell than He Gang, and has a strong sense of judgment, which is inevitably a bit too late, Yin Zibo is also very sociable, very good at pulling large customers, and is also a good hand in sales.

He Gang's own son is only a teenager, sent to Hong Kong to be educated since he was a child, He Gang hopes that his son can become a real modern entrepreneur, but this is ten years later, and the two fathers and sons of the Yin family are dangling in front of their eyes every day, so He Gang added a title to himself: chairman.

The company began to undergo subtle changes, because the relationship between He Gang and the Yin family father and son is now very delicate, very delicate, so all the middle and senior management will never dare to have a subtle attitude, all have a clear position, and they all stand in line, choosing to be loyal to the chairman and CEO, or choose to work hard to the executive vice president and CTO, fortunately, it is not a difficult thing here, because people who enter the company basically have a way to enter the company, and everyone chooses a position according to the way.

As for Ye Ling, Ye Ling was introduced by Yin Zibo to Crown Home for an IPO.

Although Ye Ling is Yin Zibo's fox friend and dog friend, Ye Ling is essentially a businessman. Ye Ling didn't want to get involved in the partisan dispute of the crown company, he was not a person from the crown, so he had enough to stir up. Ye Ling just wants to put the crown on the market, so that he can earn a vote from it, as for the control of the crown, He surnamed Yin, has a relationship with him. So although Ye Ling and Yin Zibo are so good that they can change their pants and wear them, they treat He Gang the same as Yin Bai, they respect him the same, they fool together, and you give me money to earn you are my uncle's, but now things don't seem to be so simple

As far back as 4-5 years ago, when Ye Ling was still an SVP at Ping An Securities, Crown was already a potential IPO customer of Ping An. It is very rare for a high-quality private enterprise with sufficient funds, good reputation and strong strength like Crown. Investment banking is a highly competitive industry, high-quality customer resources are more difficult to find than the gold in the yellow sand, but there are a group of scammers who only want to make money in the stock market every day to harass, to be inferior customers is very hard and risky, maybe toss for two or three years, can not go to the market, everyone goes home to drink the northwest wind, even if it is on the market, there may be an accident, then everyone has to go to prison but the pursuit of high-quality customers is also hard, because the competition in the same industry is too fierce, and it will only become more and more intense. Now there are more than 1,000 sponsors in the country, and there are only a few hundred companies listed in a year.

As early as 4-5 years ago, Ping An Securities looked for the crown, but the business was not discussed, the reason is very simple: the two shareholders have a limited level of education, and this limited level of private entrepreneurs is very easy to fool, as long as they don't understand anything, just respect you, but the level of these two private entrepreneurs is too limited, especially Yin Zibo's father, who doesn't even know the words on his signboard, so that the investment bank fools his advertisements are completely useless. He Gang knew the words, but after those words were put together to form a sentence by the investment bank, he didn't understand the meaning at all. After much discussion, the two shareholders finally decided not to get involved in what they didn't understand.

This kind of thing is also very common when investment banks persuade private entrepreneurs to go public, and the refusal is often the most valuable and high-quality customers, so investment banks will never give up, 5 years, investment banks of all sizes have been constantly appearing in the field of vision of the two shareholders, all kinds of depicting a good money map lie said a thousand times is the truth, He Gang and Yin Bai slowly familiar with those foreign words, although they still don't understand what it means, but at least listen to the ears cordial. The two of them slowly became interested in the money in the listing circle, especially He Gang's desire to launch European and American retro furniture, which required a large amount of upfront investment

Ye Ling has known Yin Zibo for 3-4 years, knows Yin Zibo, and has a relationship with him, Ye Ling is deliberate, and Ye Ling has always had a keen sense of smell for potential customers. But soon after, the two found out that they were close to each other's age, similar hobbies, and similar smells, so they became more and more acquainted, and the two gradually became a pair of dog friends who got together no matter what happened. Now that the two shareholders of Crown have the need and willingness to go public, of course Yin Zibo doesn't need to say it, Ye Ling will do it, anyway, who is looking for an IPO is not to do it, can you make money for others or not for your buddies

Under Yin Zibo's enthusiastic recommendation, a black extended Mercedes-Benz S600 stopped at the door of the Crown Building, and the driver wearing white gloves and uniform opened the door for Ye Ling. Ye Ling, wearing a hand-sewn suit, wearing a Patek Philippe in her hand, a Hermes tie around her neck, a Salvatore Ferragamo on her feet, a black briefcase, and sunglasses off, with a handsome, indifferent and noble face with a smile that is both empty and like a spring breeze, shook hands with everyone cordially, and handed over his own gilded business card - the CEO himself made a special trip to give a class to several top executives with a limited number of crowns.

Ye Ling has rich experience in dealing with farmers and entrepreneurs, as soon as he entered the door, he bombarded everyone with a mouth full of chattering foreign language, and then began to speak Chinese, for two hours, he didn't even drink a sip of tea, what concept, how concept, what structure, what culture, in short, let them not understand a word even if they know every word After the class, it is dinner, at the dinner table, Ye Ling talked eloquently, from the development prospects of China's capital market, to the unknown jokes of a well-known official, to the good situation of their company's various businesses going hand in hand, to the detailed work they have done for a certain project, all-encompassing, talking and laughingIn the end, Ye Ling threw out his father-in-law, well, ex-father-in-law, it's all the same thing anyway, his mentor, his backstage boss, and those high-ranking officials in the club. Ye Ling approached the two bosses, whisperedly, confidentially, and subtly revealed some of the recent wind trends in the meeting, with the relationship between the former father-in-law and the meeting, our company can assist you in the process of IPO review to better show your own advantages, resolve the crisis problem, and pass the meeting smoothly

The two shareholders had golden eyes and sent Ye Ling out of the door with their feet on cotton, and unanimously agreed that our company should not be old-fashioned, our company should become a real modern enterprise, we should march towards globalization, and we should go public

Originally, things were going quite smoothly, but seeing that the agreement was about to be signed, He Gang didn't know who to listen to, so he suddenly proposed to set up a securities department to assist the company in its listing

Set up a securities department, Yin Bai Yin Zibo also thinks that it should, after all, it is a big deal, and there should be a special person in charge, the question is who is responsible?

Yin Zibo thinks that Ye Ling will handle everything listed anyway, so he only needs to send someone to run errands in his company. Yin Zibo recommended his girlfriend, He Yuan, very well.

He Yuan was a little unhappy these days, awkward with the store manager, awkward with colleagues, and awkward with Yin Zibo, which made Yin Zibo very annoyed, and he was almost no interested in having sex with her. He Yuan resigns every day, grinding to work in his company, for Mao All his girlfriends like to resign, and they all want to come to work in his company? Okay, okay, then let her do chores for Ye Ling, anyway, they are also familiar, doesn't she think about being a store manager every day and can't climb up, then make her a securities manager,

Now He Gang is not happy: Okay, you are Yin Zibo, you are in charge of production, you have to manage sales, and I will let you score three points in sales, and you still want to insert a foot in the listing, the investment bank has already done it for your friend, and the manager of the securities department of your company will let you make a girl, a 20-year-old girl, a working girl who graduated from vocational high school, and a salesperson who sells T-shirts in Giordashino. You pretend to take advantage of the public and private, I turn a blind eye, and you are fooled about such an important matter as listing, when you were the Securities Regulatory Commission, your father, He Gang, was so angry that he crumpled He Xiaoyuan's resume and threw it into the paper basket.

A few days later, He Gang announced that the company will set up a securities department, set up a department director position, the director candidate has already been available, is his niece who graduated from MBA in the United States, works in investment banking, with an annual salary of 500,000, because people now earn so much in the United States, in fact, more than that, I have already wiped the resume for others? People don't have Chinese resumes on hand, do you want English?

Okay, Yin Zibo doesn't care about He Gang: if you want to be the director of your niece, you can be it, anyway, there are still few idlers in the company, and the annual salary is 500,000, which is really a bit excessive, but forget it. The material procurement is all the people of the Yin family, and it is estimated that the three aunts and six relatives of this gang will fall into the pockets of the three aunts and six relatives in a year, but you can't really use them, because if you change people, I am afraid that if you take this number, you will get a bunch of bad materials. There is always a place in the company that someone has to sit.

Yin Zibo's natural personality is actually very shrewd, but at the age of 15, he took care of business with his father, and he has a deep understanding and sober understanding of the water to the clear, and the people to the investigation of the people, which coincides with He Gang.

With a director candidate, Yin Zibo applied for the position of deputy director for his girlfriend. Annual salary, that, 50,000 is enough. She now sells T-shirts for 2-3000 a month, and the excess is considered companionship compensation.

He Gang almost agreed, but suddenly thought, this is the first girlfriend that Yin Zibo picked up into the company? But in the past, those girls all went to Crown's Furniture City to work as salesmen, and they didn't give them any special treatment, He Gang's specific situation was not very clear, and he only heard a few complaints from the sales director under him, and those girls were not very easy to manage. But Yin Zibo will break up soon when he gets bored, and after the breakup, these girls will be fired by the manager if they don't resign themselves, so it doesn't matter, anyway, who to hire as a salesperson is not a recruitment. But this time it was for Ling Ran to be his deputy, He Gang watched Ling Ran grow up, Ling Ran was very picky since she was a child, and her mouth was mean and ruthless, and Yin Zibo's girlfriend, before breaking up, couldn't be too faceless

He Gang cautiously replied to Yin Zibo: The candidate for the deputy director should be determined by the director himself, so that the principal and deputy will not cooperate together, I will show your girlfriend's resume to my niece, and wait for her to come to work.

Yin Zibo is a little angry now: I haven't spoken for 500,000 a year, 50,000 a year, fuck you He Gang still came to play with me, don't you make me lose face in front of my girlfriend, isn't he, he usually doesn't have this character, is it because Ye Ling is recommended by me, he wants to guard against me? I don't understand this thing on the market, I don't understand it with my dad, He Gang He doesn't understand that the more Yin Zibo thinks about things, the more complicated things become, and he can't imagine how complicated it is.

Yin Zibo muttered to Ye Ling behind his back: "Is it that He Gang is suspicious of us, thinking that we will do something in the share ratio, so let his niece supervise us, and he also plans to send the secretary who has been with him the longest and most effective to him This niece will be used It seems that this securities department, he is not allowed to enter any of the people on my side." ”

Ye Ling didn't want to offend anyone, so she quickly turned off the fire: "It's okay, it's okay." Maybe Mr. He just wanted her to get started quickly because his niece had just arrived, so he sent her his most capable subordinates. ”

Yin Zibo will be suspicious, maybe he is thinking too much, anyway, since He Gang has already expressed his position, it is not easy to say more. When the female director comes, let's talk about my girlfriend. If she doesn't accept He Yuan at that time, then there may be a real problem, should she arrange for another of her right-hand men to be her deputy?

This was three months ago, and now the female director is finally in place. Yin Zibo thought about it and said to Ye Ling: "The female director came to the company to report in the morning on the 8th, and the relevant personnel of the company gave her a clean sweep in the evening, you see, when is it more appropriate for you to come to the company to meet her?"

"The sooner the better, and the sooner you show that you value her. Ye Ling said, "You go to work at half past eight, and it is estimated that it will take two or three hours for her to report, go through the formalities, and meet with various executives on the first day."

"There was a summit at 10 o'clock in the morning, and He Gang planned to take her to meet me and my dad before the summit, and then introduce them to the CEOs at the summit. ”

"Okay, I'll be there after 11 o'clock, and after the summit, you can introduce me to it. It's inconvenient for me to attend your company's reception banquet, so it's best to have that meal at noon, and we'll eat together. ”

The two discussed it properly, raised their heads, and found that they had walked to the villa area. What should I do next? Go back to my room and go to bed? It's not even 12 o'clock. Both of them are busy and busy, and it is useless to go to sleep before 2 o'clock, but now it is the National Day holiday, there is no shift to add, and it is too far away from the city, there is no bar to soak, the long night is long, where is the pastime?

Yin Zibo whispered to Ye Ling: "There should be someone in the hot spring now." "The hot spring pools of the golf course are the most haunting places for lonely women and high-priced ladies who are looking for one-night stands.

Ye Ling replied in a low voice: "Among the guests who came today, there may also be people who go to the hot springs." ”

Yin Zibo knew that after Ye Ling's divorce, she had been trying to save her relationship, and ran to her former father-in-law's house two or three times a month, so she was very cautious and only went to an absolutely reliable place: "Let's go together, if you have a fancy to it, I'll talk about it, and then ask her to go to your room to find you." ”

Ye Ling nodded, and the two of them suddenly changed direction and walked towards the Hot Spring Palace
