Chapter 1456 The Future Should Be Like This

Feng Yiping himself is also very happy to have Drucker join. As the company's globalization process accelerates, his demand for executives who are familiar with the international market is also increasing.

Because of his conservative support in operations, such as relying on his own hematopoietic function to develop as much as possible, Huaqiang's demand for financial personnel, which many companies immediately strengthen when they internationalize, is not so strong and urgent.

The most urgent one is the human resources department.

As the head of human resources at Starbucks with the most motivated employees in the world-renowned service industry, Drucker's joining will quickly make up for this shortcoming, allowing the company to realize Feng Yiping's strategy better and faster.

Before dinner, he was eager to meet Drucker, who had resigned from Starbucks, and said, "Welcome Drucker,"

"I'm honored." Drucker is actually quite excited about joining Jiasheng, which is likely to skyrocket like Feng Yiping. New opportunities contain new hope.

"I plan to start with the company's human resources organization. I will first have a general understanding of the situation, and then formulate the company's human resources strategy, design and improve the human resources management system suitable for the company, and provide career planning for managers... ," As soon as he sat down, he kept talking about his plan.

Sitting in the back garden, John and Heidi watched with admiration and praise as this former Starbucks executive, who was over fifty years old, reported his work to Feng Yiping so actively.

My daughter's vision is indeed good, but she hid it too closely at the beginning. Otherwise, if she had intervened earlier, I believe there would have been a better result than now.

Of course, this result will definitely make other girls who get pregnant out of wedlock extremely envious.

"Okay, very good, very good," Feng Yiping was full of praise. Even though there was nothing new in these things, he was very satisfied with Drucker's attitude.

First, it can be seen that he is very positive; second, he does not mean what he said, such as "what I used to do at Starbucks."

"Look at Drucker," after listening, he still put forward his own opinion, "Can we use the existing employees in the human resources department to familiarize ourselves with the company's human resources situation? Or, let's first let each company The heads of the human resources department should come to receive your training. Let them learn advanced human resources management concepts from you first, so that you can have a qualified team in subsequent work."

Perhaps Drucker tends to be conservative, or perhaps Drucker wants to better reflect his own value. Feng Yiping feels that his plan is good, but too stable.

Being too stable is not bad, but it takes a long time to take effect. On the way here, a conversation with John made his thinking clearer. The next series of work must be accelerated. He hopes that the human resources department can quickly Keep up the rhythm.

Because if their rhythm cannot keep up, it will directly affect the implementation of some subsequent plans.

"This is a way," Drucker said without hesitation, "You must be the most familiar with the company's situation. I accept your arrangement."

After seeing his reaction, Feng Yiping nodded with satisfaction.

Drucker had no worries about Feng Yiping first emptying out what he was good at and then kicking it away.

From an ordinary employee to a senior executive at Starbucks, he has no shortage of confidence. He believes that the human resources department he is in charge of can bring more benefits to this young company.

Feng Yiping admired his confidence.

"Okay then. What I want to straighten out the most right now is the human resources work in China. How about you spend one to two weeks getting familiar with work like this in the United States, and then set off for China?"

"No problem," Drucker pondered for a moment before agreeing.

"Then let's have a meal, Drucker. If we're happy today, we must have a few drinks,"

Drucker didn't speak, because he opened his mouth in surprise. A very cute little boy ran over and hugged Feng Yiping's thigh, "Dad, are you ready to eat?"

"My son, Vincent," Feng Yiping introduced him with a smile while hugging his son.

…………

On Day 1 of Unite Lake, well, it should be Unite HN, Feng Yiping warmly hugged Bezos, "Hello Jeff,"

When he said this, he was also seriously thinking about whether he could choose another English name. The requirement would be like Bezos. Someone who understands Chinese would sound like taking advantage of him?

Jeff was occupied by the guy in front of him. Is there a word in English that has a pronunciation close to that of "uncle"?

"Congratulations to Feng." Bezos didn't know his bad taste and patted him enthusiastically on the shoulder. "We haven't seen you for a few months. Your net worth has increased greatly!"

Google's current market value is now several times that of Amazon. In terms of personal wealth, Feng Yiping naturally far exceeds Bezos.

"It's not like you don't know what the meaning of wealth on paper is. But I've been really annoyed for a while. I always receive all kinds of sales calls."

After Google's successful IPO, he, Page, and Brin immediately became popular in the eyes of many related companies in the United States. The first to take action were those asset management companies, including the investment departments of some banks that they had dealt with.

Asset management companies that he had not contacted before were able to find his number, and the best one among them was able to get Jobs's wife Laurenna to help introduce him.

In addition, the sales presidents of three yacht companies have personally called him to arrange a meeting; five business aircraft manufacturing companies including Bombardier, Dassault, and Cessna have called L, and Gulfstream has also not been left behind. They asked Feng Yiping if he had any plans to upgrade, and enthusiastically recommended the newly launched G series to him...

Following the American Express Centurion Card that I already own, Coutts, Bank of America, MasterCard, the royal banks of the British royal family, are almost all banks that issue top credit cards, which are what everyone calls the legendary "black cards" , they all immediately sent an invitation to him...

In fact, they are not the only ones. Google employees are also prime customers of major financial companies. Although most of the assets in their accounts are currently less than five or six figures, most of them will be in this mid-term. , that is, one month after the IPO, you will have more than six figures of wealth.

Not only are financial managers enthusiastically fawning over them, but luxury car and yacht dealers in Silicon Valley are also actively contacting them while increasing their inventories.

Real estate agents will also send three to four promotional emails to their inboxes a day, not only promoting houses, but also promoting vineyards in Napa Valley...

If you say this in front of other people, it would be a show off, but in front of Bezos, it is naturally not the case. Although this person is not as wealthy as Feng Yiping now, he is also a veteran rich man and has experienced such troubles. .

"Do you want me to give you some advice?" he asked with a smile.

"It's completely useless. The funds I cashed out this time have already been put to use, so they don't need to worry about it at all," Feng Yiping said with a smile.

In fact, when it comes to financial management, how can he use the advice of those companies?

"So, what good advice can you give me this time?" Bezos asked with a smile.

"Before I say this, Jeff, I have an idea that I would like your support for,"

"Oh, you said?"

"That's right. Do you want to visit China?" Feng Yiping asked.

Bezos was stunned. He didn't expect that this was what Feng Yiping said.

"I'll naturally think about it if I have time,"

"Haha, there will always be time. It is initially scheduled for the end of next month. Several people will go to China with me to see the Chinese market and the development of our high-tech industry, including inspecting our manufacturing industry. "

"Look, you have also learned about the potential of the Chinese market from a lot of information. In addition to the shelves provided by Jiasheng, Amazon also uses many other products from China. Don't you want to take a look?"

"Also, don't you want to go and see the company you just acquired in person?"

Just last month, in fact, it was the day Google went public. I don’t know why. Anyway, Bezos decided that day, August 19, to acquire Rebus and Rebus for $75 million. Joyo.com is founded by good gay friend Chen Nian.

"You know, I have to look at the schedule and who's going to be there?" Bezos asked.

"I am still mobilizing more business leaders, including Steve Jobs, but what I want to tell you is that Musk has been determined and will definitely participate,"

From PayPal to SpaceX, Bezos and Musk have some problems to deal with.

Of course, Feng Yiping was joking. People in the shopping mall are not as shallow as those in the entertainment industry, and they are not as childish as those on the stage who have no communication throughout the whole process.

"Haha, that's not a problem, I'm very interested, mainly because of you," Bezos said.

"I'm honored you said that,"

“I’m more interested in the advice you’re going to give me today,” Bezos said, leaning forward.

"Okay," Feng Yiping nodded helplessly, "You see, with the growth of business, Amazon was forced to abandon the 'light company' model based on Internet companies that it had always insisted on, and invested huge manpower and material resources. Build your own warehouses across the country,"

"By the way, I fully support your move," Feng Yiping said.

Because the investment in these offline warehouses is huge, each one costs more than 50 million US dollars, and the operating costs are even higher. Therefore, before Amazon achieved profitability in 2002, this became the main reason for many shareholders to criticize it.

"Thank you, we are continuing to invest in our warehouses. I think we need to set up at least 20 warehouses in the United States to bring a better experience to our users," Bezos said.

"Yes, user experience, this is what I want to talk to you about today," Feng Yiping said.

Bezos's eyes lit up, "Say,"

"In order for users to receive goods faster, we need to build more warehouses. In fact, in order for them to have a better experience, I think physical stores are also indispensable,"

"Don't object in a hurry. Just ask, for big items like home appliances, are consumers more likely to see the real thing before placing an order? Well, consumers should be able to trust well-known brand home appliances. However, taking the AmazonFresh project that you are currently increasing efforts on as an example, I can absolutely conclude that the existing operating model will not bring you the results you expect,"

AmazonFresh, also known as the fresh food project, is a project that Bezos himself is very optimistic about.

“No matter how much we invest online, we can’t have a better experience than going to the supermarket or farmer’s market to take a look and touch it with our hands,”

"Also, the focus of your business at the beginning, books, if you open a physical store, it will definitely stimulate more consumption. You must be aware of this, right?"

"Moreover, the opening of a physical store will enable us to deliver the goods ordered by users more quickly, further improving their satisfaction, am I right?"

Bezos shook his head, as if a little disappointed, "regardless of this or that benefit, Amazon will never open physical stores like grocery stores,"

But he felt something was wrong, why would Feng Yiping make such a suggestion?

"Why would I make such a suggestion? The physical store I'm talking about is naturally a unique physical store,"

That's right, Bezos' eyes lit up again, "Tell me quickly,"

"The future should be like this," Feng Yiping stood up with his hands on his waist, "Our physical stores should be highly intelligent and unmanned,"

Bezos was stunned.

"Users can place orders online first, then pick up the goods in the store, or buy them directly in the store,"

"But this is still not enough. Our physical stores must be able to satisfy customers' experience. For example, when they buy furniture and appliances, they can not only see the real objects, but also use the technology in our store to see the final display effect of these furniture and appliances in their homes..."

"After customers select the goods, if they need, we can use remote-controlled cargo platforms on land or in the air to deliver their goods to the destination in a timely, accurate and fast manner..."

Just like when Drucker met Vincent, Bezos also opened his mouth wide at this time.
