Chapter 241: Senior Assistant
"You said it before...... Want to apply for a general manager's position? ”
"That's right."
Li Chuan looked at Jiang Zeyu again, then lowered his head and fell into deep thought.
The general manager of Miki Media is currently held by him personally, and Jiang Zeyu's job search intention is tantamount to grabbing his position.
However, he was not disgusted by this.
The general manager is responsible for the day-to-day management and operation of the company, and although he has a lot of power, he also has a lot to do...... He usually has to broadcast live and participate in various activities, so he is really busy.
If there is a suitable candidate, he is willing to give up the position of general manager and become a chairman with peace of mind.
The chairman only makes decisions on major matters and does not participate in the day-to-day management and operation of the company...... In this way, he can free up a lot of time, usually do live broadcasts, participate in activities or something, and he doesn't have to be so tired, and even find time to do other things...... Such a work arrangement is obviously more in line with his personal wishes.
Of course, there is a premise for this, and that is that there must be the right person.
The position of the general manager is too critical, directly determining the life and death of a company, and the role is even greater than that of the chairman.
Is Jiang Zeyu the right person?
Not necessarily.
Jiang Zeyu's educational background and work experience are very good, and he is obviously a high-end elite talent, but he also has a big problem, that is, he has been working in investment banking before, and he has been doing some financial business.
Li Chuan is not a "resume believer", and he will not directly judge a person's ability based on the information on his resume alone.
In reality, there are many "resume believers", some bosses, especially the bosses of small companies, encounter a resume like Jiang Zeyu, that is, they really give whatever conditions there are, and they can't wait to dig out their hearts and lungs, they have to keep people, and some can even let the entire company out.
Li Chuan is different from them, probably because he is a top student from a prestigious school, he is familiar with some inside information, and he is not very interested in the "resume".
In reality, some people, the resume is explosive, but in fact it is a showcase, all day long, the economic situation at home and abroad, the head is the way, policy orientation, industry prospects or something, see better than anyone else, but really do things, not as good as an ordinary salesman.
What does a general manager do?
Do things!
If you can't do things, what's the use of talking all day long?
Li Chuan didn't think that Jiang Zeyu was a showman, but the other party had no experience in the same industry and related industries, and he couldn't see what his real ability was for the time being, and he inevitably had some doubts in his heart.
"What would you do if you were successful in your job application and became the general manager of Miki Media?" Li Chuan thought for a long time and asked.
"I will introduce capital and carry out capitalization reform for Miki Media......"
"We're not short of money." Li Chuan interrupted.
"I know that your company has a lot of cash flow and will not need financing now, and for a long time to come, but your company has been established for a short time and has no social background...... We all know that doing business in China pays the most attention to social background, especially live streaming is still a widely controversial industry, without sufficient social background, it may collapse at any time in the future. ”
"So what do you mean? Want to bring in official capital? ”
"That's right, I want to tie Miki Media to the local government, so that Miki Media has a certain official background and forms local protection; At the same time, domestic capital should be introduced, and one or several relatively large forces should be selected to form capital protection; International capital will not be considered for the time being, and will be discussed after Miki Media is involved in international business in the future. ”
After listening to this, Li Chuan secretly gave a thumbs up.
Jiang Zeyu's capitalization idea is really powerful, if it is really as he said, "local protection" and "capital protection" are formed at the same time, then Miki Media can completely let go of its hands and feet, and no longer have to worry about those dark guns and cold arrows.
However, it is not easy to do this.
Although Miki Media has developed very well, it has not yet achieved the leading position in the industry...... Now Miki Media, it is relatively easy to introduce capital, but it is difficult to attract the attention of the other party.
Whether it is the local government or domestic capital, they are very interested in investing in Miki Media, but most of them just want to use Miki Media as a money-making tool...... In this way, Miki Media will suffer in vain, so it is better not to do it.
"You're right, but now is not the time."
Li Chuan said: "Miki Media has not yet formed a scale effect, although it is easy to introduce capital, but it is not enough to attract the attention of all parties, and it is difficult to form substantial protection. ”
"I understand."
Jiang Zeyu nodded and said: "What I said is the changes that Miki Media will make in the future, and at this stage, it is still necessary to focus on development and become a leader in the industry as soon as possible, so as to be qualified to negotiate with all parties." ”
"How are you going to develop?"
"The core business of Miki Media is live streaming, and the core of live streaming is the supply chain...... I think that Miki Media must create a leading supply chain system in the country in order to be invincible in the future competition. ”
"Well, it seems that you have done a lot of research on live streaming...... However, the supply chain you talked about is only a broad concept, do you know what to do? ”
"Nope."
Jiang Zeyu shook his head and said: "I just did some research on live streaming and learned a few key points, but I don't have relevant work experience, and I don't know the specific work content." ”
"How can I trust you like this?" Li Chuan frowned.
"I have a strong ability to learn, give me a month...... No, in half a month, I will be able to familiarize myself with the business, and when the time comes, I will submit a detailed work plan to you...... This half a month, even if it is my internship period, if you think it is not good, just drive me away, how about it? ”
When Li Chuan heard this, he fell into contemplation again.
What Jiang Zeyu said does make sense, but it's all nonsense.
"Internship period", Jiang Zeyu doesn't say it, he will do it.
Nowadays, an ordinary job has to set up an internship period, let alone such an important position as "general manager...... For the "general manager", the internship period is a must, and the time cannot be short, at least more than three months, otherwise it will not be clear to see.
What Li Chuan is thinking about now is whether it is appropriate to arrange Jiang Zeyu to intern in the position of "general manager" now?
Miki Media has just taken a holiday, and has changed to a new office space, the company's hearts are fluctuating, and it has not completely stabilized.
Li Chuan thought about it and felt that it was very possible.
Ordinary employees may not take it seriously, after all, they have many leaders, and it doesn't matter if there is one more or less, but Chen Chen, Wang Chengyong, Yu Jie and others are different.
Chen Chen, Wang Chengyong, Yu Jie and others are all entrepreneurial veterans of the company...... Although Jiang Zeyu's educational background and work experience are amazing, he is not an entrepreneurial veteran of the company after all, and no matter how outstanding his ability is, he can't show it for the time being...... Such a person, suddenly riding on their heads, can they be convinced?
Li Chuan tried to empathize with him.
He felt that if he sat in the position of Chen Chen, Wang Chengyong, Yu Jie and others, he would definitely not be convinced.
If the executives are not convinced, there will be chaos within the company...... It was the last thing he wanted to see.
After thinking for a while, Li Chuan shook his head slightly and said, "I'm willing to give you a chance, but at present, it's impossible." ”
"What do you mean?" Jiang Zeyu frowned.
"I admit that your resume is excellent, excellent to ...... I can't bear to give up, but my resume doesn't mean ability, and I can't believe that you can be a good general manager of Miki Media right now. ”
"I understand your concerns, but didn't I say it before, you can give me an internship for a while...... During the internship period, I will prove my ability, and when the time comes, the results will be in front of you, and I am sure that you will be able to make the right judgment. ”
"I appreciate your confidence, but...... Internship periods are also not good. ”
"Why?" Jiang Zeyu's brows furrowed even deeper.
"Although Miki Media has been established for a short time, there are still some talents, many of whom have followed me since starting their business, and they are the veterans of the company, and I can't treat them badly...... If you also followed me from the beginning, then there is nothing to say, the general manager should be the one, and you don't even need an internship, but unfortunately, you are not...... I say that, you get the idea, right? ”
"Understood, you're afraid that if I become the general manager, your entrepreneurial partners will be unconvinced, right?"
"That's pretty much it."
Li Chuan nodded, and said: "It's no problem if you want to be the general manager, and I'm willing to give you a chance, but you can't do it as soon as you come up...... Before that, you need to let me and my business partners know what kind of person you are, what kind of things you can do, what your specific abilities are, etc., and these questions will be clarified before I can make you the general manager. ”
"I see what you mean."
Jiang Zeyu said, adjusted his sitting posture, and leaned back on the chair.
"And what do you think?"
Li Chuan looked at the other side, and his mood suddenly became nervous.
Although he doesn't value resumes, he also knows what Jiang Zeyu's resume represents...... Jiang Zeyu is really a very rare high-end talent, once he misses it, he may not have it again in the future.
He is now very afraid that Jiang Zeyu will say things like "I don't think it's suitable" or "I'll go back and think about it", as soon as this kind of thing comes out, it is basically a goodbye.
Under Li Chuan's gaze, Jiang Zeyu pondered for a while, and then spoke: "If I join your company, how are you going to arrange me in the early stage of your company?" ”
When Li Chuan heard this, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Jiang Zeyu can say this kind of thing, which shows that he is still very willing to stay...... This is undoubtedly good news.
In response to Jiang Zeyu's question, Li Chuan thought carefully for a moment, and then spoke: "In this way, I had an assistant before, the one who received you just now, and he has now been promoted to the head of the administrative department...... He is usually very busy with his work, and he is also my assistant, which is a bit inadequate...... You will replace him first and be my assistant for a while. ”
"Assistant?!"
Jiang Zeyu's face was stunned, anger swelled up, and said, "Are you kidding me?" ”
"Don't worry."
Li Chuan hurriedly reassured: "I know, with your educational background and work experience, it is a little too aggrieved to be an assistant for me, but I can assure you a little...... The assistant you are is not the same as an ordinary assistant. ”
"How is it different?" Jiang Zeyu's mood eased slightly.
"I'll put the word 'senior' in front of your position."
"Senior Assistant?"
"That's right."
"Are you kidding? Assistant and senior assistant, it's just that the name has changed, is there actually a difference? ”
"There is a difference! Of course there is a difference! ”
"What's the difference?"
"An assistant is an assistant, what I say and what he does, there is no subjective initiative; The senior assistant is different, although it is still what I say and what he does, but he has a certain degree of subjective initiative and can also exercise the authority of the general manager. ”
"Oh?"
Jiang Zeyu's eyes couldn't help but light up when he heard Li Chuan's last words.
Li Chuan smiled and continued: "You also know, I am an Internet celebrity, and in addition to live broadcasts, I usually have to travel and participate in activities, and I usually don't stay in the company for a long time...... When I go on a business trip or participate in an event, you don't have to go with me, you just stay in the company and exercise the authority of the general manager on my behalf...... However, I should explain one thing in advance, when I encounter more important things, you must call me in advance to communicate, and you can't make decisions privately. ”
"This ...... Isn't it the deputy general manager? Jiang Zeyu raised his eyebrows and said.
"That's what it means."
Li Chuan nodded with a smile and said: "You just arrived at the company, the employees don't know you, I can't give you too high a position at once, but you have to believe a little, I am willing to give you the opportunity...... the position of 'senior assistant', said to be an assistant, in fact, it is the deputy general manager, you work in this position first, and when you are familiar with the company's business and the interpersonal relationship is straightened out, when the time comes, I will give you a promotion." ”
"Okay, I see."
Jiang Zeyu nodded and said, "This condition is okay, I accept it." ”
"That's great, it's settled!"
Li Chuan immediately smiled, and after speaking, he took out his mobile phone and said, "I'll tell the administration department and ask them to prepare a contract." ”
"Wait a minute."
"What's wrong?"
"I haven't talked about my salary yet."
"Oh~, I almost forgot."
Li Chuan shook his head and smiled bitterly, then put away his mobile phone, returned to his normal color, and said, "What was your previous annual salary?" ”
"116,000."
"Dollars?"
"Hmm."
"That's about 800,000...... In this way, I will give you an annual salary of 50% and 1.2 million, what do you think? ”
"Yes, but ...... This is not enough. ”
"What more could you want? Share? ”
Jiang Zeyu nodded with a straight face.
Li Chuan didn't feel surprised, and asked directly, "How much do you want?" ”
Jiang Zeyu stretched out five fingers and said, "Five points." ”
"No way!"
Li Chuan decisively refused.
It is normal for a high-end talent like Jiang Zeyu to ask for shares, and of course he is willing to give them, after all, high-end people will definitely not be able to keep them if they don't give shares...... Don't doubt the attraction of high-end talents, a large group of companies are waiting to dig up the wall, you don't give shares, people are really saying go.
However, five points is too much for Li Chuan to accept.
"The current valuation of Miki Media, at least 200 million, five points is 100 million, which is too much."
"I'm sorry, I don't understand, why do you say that Miki Media's valuation is two billion?"
"Needless to say, just the three words 'Mr. Sen' have created more than 2 billion yuan in revenue a year."
"Is Mr. Mori equal to Miki Media? As far as I know, Mr. Mori's trademark registration was applied for by a unit called 'Mr. Mori's Studio', and Mr. Mori's Studio does not have a clear equity relationship with Miki Media. ”
"Huh?"
Li Chuan's face was shocked, and he said, "You investigate so clearly? ”
"It's my professional skill." Jiang Zeyu shrugged his shoulders and said.
Li Chuan scratched his head for a while, frowned and said: "Even if Mr. Sen's trademark does not belong to Miki Media, the income created by Mr. Sen belongs to Miki Media, and there is a brokerage contract between Miki Media and Mr. Sen's studio. ”
"What is the number of years of agency? What is a default clause? ”
"Uh......"
Li Chuan was speechless for a while.
Miki Media's agency contract with Mr. Mori's studio, which was only one year long, now only has half a year left, and the breach of contract clause is only a symbolic dollar...... If this kind of thing is said, it will be a major blow to the valuation of Miki Media, and it is light to cut zero.
In the end, it is a high-end talent, and the vision is sharp. ’
Jiang Zeyu saw Li Chuan's expression, and immediately understood, adjusted his sitting posture slightly, and then said without changing his face: "Miki Media is completely erected with Mr. Sen's influence, if there is no Mr. Sen's trademark and brokerage authority, there is only a short-term agency contract that is not very binding, and its own valuation will definitely not exceed 200 million...... According to the highest value, 5% of 200 million, that is, 10 million...... For me, 10 million equity is not much. ”
"That...... It can't be said that in addition to Mr. Sen, Miki Media has many excellent anchors, and the profit prospects are very impressive, and the valuation of 500 million yuan is still deserved. ”
"Most of these anchors are gathered in the name of Mr. Sen, and as soon as Mr. Sen leaves, it is likely that the trees will fall and scatter, the danger is too great, and the valuation must be greatly discounted."
