Chapter 795: Li Dong’s Price
Chen Lang talked a lot, and he didn't mind analyzing the gap with Li Dong at this time.
Everyone can see these things, and it's no secret.
At the end, Chen Lang even smiled and said: "Also, Mr. Li said that I have shackles in China Resources, so don't I have them in the distance?"
"In comparison, I think China Resources is more fair.
On the far side, the board of directors is useless, and it's all Mr. Li's words.
If I really go to a distant place and have a disagreement with Mr. Li, who will I listen to?
I don't need to try to know this, Mr. Li, are you right?
Since we are all to be an executor, then why should I choose the far away, give up the strong and seek the weak?
Well, even if Mr. Li promises me greater autonomy, then I still want to ask one more question. In the distance, Mr. Li thinks that I can achieve this level in a few years? "
Now that he is the CEO of China Resources Vanguard, he may soon be able to control the entire retail industry.
What about the distance?
After going to a distant place, unless he is the CEO of the group, Chen Lang doesn't think there is any position that can match his current position.
But is there such a possibility?
Li Dong didn't care if he asked casually or on purpose, he was afraid that he wouldn't ask. As soon as Chen Lang finished speaking, Li Dong said, "How is the COO of the group?"
Chen Lang frowned, Li Dong was indeed sincere.
Now Yuanfang Group, in terms of organizational structure, is naturally ranked first in Li Dong.
The second is Yuan Chengdao, the CEO.
Next are people like Sun Tao and Wang Yue.
Yuanfang currently does not have the position of COO. If we use a metaphor, the CEO is the mayor, who is only responsible for corporate culture and overall direction.
The COO is the executive deputy mayor who is in charge of the specific affairs. Except for Li Dong, he is the second in command of the group.
This position can be said to be at its peak.
But after thinking about it, Chen Lang still shook his head and said, "Thanks to Mr. Li's love, this condition is indeed a bit beyond my surprise. But to be honest, the position is not what I value.
Even as the COO of the group, I don't think I can interfere with the direction of the group.
Yuanfang Mall, Dongyu Real Estate, the presidents of these companies are Yuanfang directors, and Mr. Sun, I have also dealt with them several times. After all, at this time, I really can't imagine what role the COO can play? "
"That's true."
Li Dong smiled and did not deny the problem.
After being silent for a while, Li Dong continued: "Let's not talk about this first, we will talk about this later, since I am looking for Mr. Chen, I will definitely not waste Mr. Chen's great talent.
As far as opportunities are concerned, Mr. Chen thinks there are more opportunities in distant places or in China Resources?
Do things without challenges every day, and move forward step by step..."
"Ahem..."
Chen Lang laughed a little and said, "Mr. Li, I'm not a fledgling young man anymore. For me, these ideals, challenges, and enthusiasm have passed that stage."
At this time, Li Dong also had some headaches, this guy was quite difficult to deal with.
Leaving aside the ideal, it is clear that it is useless to just fire the cannon.
Chen Lang is obviously a realist, and he values reality more. Li Dong said that no matter how far-sighted it is, it will be difficult to impress him.
Gritting his teeth, Li Dong was not in a hurry to talk about the salary issue. After all, he felt that it was a bit vulgar to say this when he first came here.
But sometimes the vulgar things can move people, and now, it’s impossible not to talk about it.
Li Dong breathed out and said in a deep voice: "May I ask Mr. Chen a question, how much income do you get every year in China Resources, including annual salary and dividends?"
Chen Lang glanced at him, understood what he meant, thought for a moment before saying, "About 2 million."
As a central enterprise, in 2007, this treatment was so generous that it couldn't be more generous.
This is what Chen Lang did well. He got more annual benefits and dividends. Otherwise, the fixed salary alone might not be as much as a director in the distance.
"2 million, higher than I imagined. It seems that Mr. Chen has indeed done a good job, which also moved my determination to poach Mr. Chen.
I don't play tricks, if Mr. Chen is willing to come to a distant place, he will get a fixed base salary of 5 million, plus performance bonuses!
My requirements are not high, and the performance appraisal standard is not high. I believe Mr. Chen can definitely complete it. As long as he can meet the performance requirements, I don't think it is difficult to earn an annual salary of tens of millions. "
"Must!"
Chen Lang couldn't help but stir up waves in his heart. To be honest, there are a few people in this world who don't love money.
Whether it is an entrepreneur or a practitioner, it is said that the ideal is a bit far away, and the interests are the common pursuit.
If your business is losing money every year, will you continue to do it?
A company does not pay wages every month, are you still willing to work hard for your ideals?
Ideals are only incidental, and what really moves people is the issue of interests.
An annual salary of tens of millions, not to mention Chen Lang at this time, even the chairman of China Resources does not have such a high income.
China Resources is a state-owned enterprise. No matter how good your performance is, it does not mean that it is your ability, because there is state support.
In addition, high-level employees can be regarded as people in the system, and it is impossible to give such a high salary, unless you go through gray channels, which may earn a lot of money.
Li Dong offered an annual salary of tens of millions, which was equivalent to his five-year salary in one year, a five-fold increase. This courage is beyond the reach of ordinary people.
But……
Although Chen Lang didn't show any expression on his face, he felt a little struggling in his heart.
Seeing this, Li Dong raised his stake again and said: "For us, money is sometimes just a number, and money is incidental. Let me say one more thing, within three years, the distant system will definitely be reformed.
In the later period, the retail industry and the Internet industry in Yuanfang will become independent, instead of relying entirely on the headquarters as they are now.
This is my personal opinion, maybe it won't take so long.
If Mr. Chen is willing to join Yuanfang, I can promise that Yuanfang Supermarket, Times, Kelong, including the downstream industries we are building will all become a single entity.
At that time, Mr. Chen can serve as the chairman of the sub-group and join the board of directors of the headquarters. Mr. Chen will be in charge of all the retail groups!
Unless there is an emergency, the headquarters will not interfere in the affairs of the retail group..."
Li Dong's words immediately caused a storm!
Is this Li Dong's plan?
How big is this guy's heart!
The establishment of a group business group is not just a casual talk, nor is it just enough to have a good reputation.
Without a certain strength, without a complete related industry chain, doing so is just asking for humiliation.
Since Li Dong said so, he naturally had this plan and goal.
Separating retail companies and the Internet industry into separate groups is generally impossible for groups with a value of less than 100 billion yuan.
Li Dong's other meaning is obvious, the current distance is far from his ultimate goal, hundreds of billions is just the beginning.
And if you join Yuanfang by yourself, you will take over the entire sub-group in the later stage, which is almost equivalent to the current chairman of China Resources Venture under China Resources.
Chen Lang began to struggle in his heart. Li Dong has given all these rights and money, should he consider changing the court?
Li Dong didn't stop talking, and said calmly: "If these are not enough to impress Mr. Chen, how about becoming a distant shareholder? A real shareholder, of course, the time is not now.
In China Resources, you probably won't have this opportunity until the day you retire.
As for the difference between private enterprises and state-owned enterprises, Mr. Chen should understand more thoroughly than me.
Outsiders say that I am Li Dongdu, if Mr. Chen thinks the same way, then it should be assumed that I didn't say that.
Ten billion groups are enough for me alone, but if I want to achieve hundreds of billions, trillions of groups, I can't do it alone.
I need a group of comrades, a group of comrades who can fight to the end.
Mr. Chen is only in his early forties now, and I think it will be no problem to struggle for twenty years.
Why can I keep Mr. Chen for twenty years?
As long as Mr. Chen can bring matching value to me and to Yuanfang, what I said today will definitely come true. "
Chen Lang's mouth was dry, hundreds of billions, trillions...
As a junior, he really has great ambitions, even if he is big, he is ashamed of himself.
However, Chen Lang still raised one point: "What is the basis of Mr. Li's words?"
"Just because I am Li Dong!"
Li Dong didn't seem to be joking at all, and said seriously: "It took me three years to start from scratch and make Yuanfang a scale of tens of billions!
So far, I have never missed it!
If these are not enough, how about adding Mr. Chen?
In addition to Mr. Chen, Yuanfang also has a group of like-minded comrades-in-arms. We are still young, and Yuanfang is still young. Everything is possible in the future.
Although it is a bit empty to talk about ideals, there are always ideals.
If you can't do it in three years, then it will be ten years; if you can't do it in ten years, then it will be twenty years..."
Chen Lang choked on his saliva and struggled violently in his heart.
After a long time, Chen Lang said dryly, "Then let me say, what if, if I join Yuanfang, the first thing I do is not in line with Mr. Li's philosophy?"
"Then what needs to be seen."
"I know that Yuanfang Supermarket has been following the civilian route, but my ideal is to be a boutique supermarket. Since the day I was transferred to be the general manager of Wanjia, I have been preparing for this.
In the past few years, I have established Ole', but this road is not easy, and some people in the group have objected.
But I feel that this road must be taken. In the next ten or even twenty years, high-quality products will be the core competitiveness.
As for Mr. Li, I know your goal. You want to be the second Aldi, which is also the path that most domestic retail companies are taking.
But everyone is doing it, which does not necessarily mean it is right. Now the e-commerce market is expanding. In my opinion, the low-end market and the civilian market will eventually be impacted by the e-commerce market one day.
Only high-end and the best user experience can withstand this impact.
Whether it is Taobao or Yuanfang Mall, I have used them, and I have also paid attention to your operating model and consumption trends. It is mainly low-end, and it is difficult for this online model to bring this kind of experience.
And with the economic development at home and abroad, I don't think the price is the main influencing factor for the future consumption trend.
Of course, how long this time is, I am not sure, but I still want to try.
And all of this is contrary to Mr. Li's philosophy..."
At this moment, Chen Lang didn't notice that Li Dong's eyes glowed brighter as he looked at him.
Sure enough, I saw the right person!
High-quality goods are indeed a great way to resist the impact of e-commerce. At this time, the concept of high-quality supermarkets is not yet popular in China.
China Resources' Ole', future blt and V+ are all leading boutique supermarkets in China, and because China Resources took the lead in entering this field, major domestic retail groups began to set foot in later.
Yonghui's BravoYH, RT-Mart's RHLavia, Hualian's BHG...
Why are these retail companies so eager for high-quality goods?
In fact, the profit of boutique supermarkets is not high, and the operation is difficult. It is reasonable to say that it is not worth the investment.
But sometimes, what everyone looks at is not profit.
To achieve the leading position in the country, what everyone sees more is the future development space.
Under the impact of e-commerce, the civilian retail industry is constantly being impacted. The e-commerce system that eliminates multiple procedures is no worse than physical stores in terms of price and products, and the price advantage is even greater.
Coupled with convenience and quickness, traditional industries have suffered heavy losses.
It is precisely because of this that traditional enterprises have begun to transform, and at this moment, China Resources Vanguard is already on the road of transformation.
At this time, before the impact of e-commerce, Chen Lang actually thought of this. It has to be said that this guy does have a few tricks.
In the next ten years, this extreme customer experience model may not be very popular, after all, the price does not have an advantage.
However, this kind of high-quality goods is not aimed at ordinary customer groups.
As young people grow up and the economy becomes richer, this model will gradually show its advantages.
Thinking about it, Li Dong was a little distracted.
Chen Lang next to him was a little disappointed when he saw this, and his voice gradually dropped.
This is also one of the reasons why he didn't think about going far away. At least in China Resources, there are still people who support him, even if it's just some people, that's enough.
China Resources is not a man of one word, as long as someone supports him, he can continue to do it.
Even if the scale is small, there is no problem, just take your time. The previous few years have been exploring, and this kind of exploration requires capital support.
Yuanfang is a private enterprise that pursues profit maximization, which is true, and Li Dong hopes to become the second Aldi, which is also true.
But in this way, the two parties have differences.
There are disagreements before joining the job, and it will be difficult to cooperate in the future. At this time, the temptation of an annual salary of tens of millions is gradually dissipating.
When Chen Lang's voice completely disappeared, Li Dong woke up. Seeing that Chen Lang's face returned to normal, Li Dong knew what was going on in his mind.
Smiling slightly, Li Dong said, "If I support Mr. Chen to continue, won't Mr. Chen be willing to come to a distant place?"
"You support?"
Chen Lang didn't believe it, but Li Dong didn't care. He nodded and said, "Actually, Mr. Chen and I have similar thoughts on this point, but you also know that Yuanfang has just started, and it hasn't even completed the layout of civilianization, let alone high-quality goods. up.
According to my original thinking, this issue will not be considered until at least 10 years later.
But since Mr. Chen mentioned this point, I can make a promise to Mr. Chen. If you are willing to do it, Yuanfang will support you.
The initial investment may not be large, after all, we are not strong enough, but this project will continue.
When we have this capital and confidence, we can grow bigger and stronger. This is not a big picture, I am very serious.
If Mr. Chen is willing to believe me, how about trying it for himself? "
At this time, the balance in Chen Lang's heart finally shook. Li Dong also thought so?
Is he really willing to support himself?
With money and rights, if even ideals can be realized, it sounds and feels pretty good.
Moreover, Li Dong was full of sincerity and invited him personally. Even if he refused repeatedly, Li Dong did not give up, but increased the price again and again. This kind of treatment is indeed not acceptable to ordinary people.
Chen Lang was silent for a long time, before he exhaled for a long time and said, "President Li, I have to say that I am a little moved. But it is difficult for me to make a decision so quickly on this kind of matter, because from China Resources to Yuanfang, it affects not only It's me alone.
My boss, subordinates, friends, family, I need to think about these.
Mr. Li, how about giving me a moment? "
With a strong smile on Li Dong's face, he nodded and said: "This is natural, senior brother can go back and think about it, and discuss it with his family.
If the senior brother really came from afar, it would be a good story.
Yuanfang rose in Jiangbei, and our brothers are also from Jiangbei, and we are alumni of the same school and major. You are in charge of China Resources Vanguard, and I am in charge of Yuanfang. Now, together, I believe there is no rival in the industry! "
Chen Lang glanced at him, couldn't help showing a smile on his face, and jokingly said, "According to what you said, wouldn't it be better to bring Tian Wanbao here from far away?"
Li Dong was happy when he heard it, and he was also happy when he said it.
Tian Wanbao is the former boss of Xinyijia, Xinyijia can do this, and Tian Wanbao has nothing to do with it.
It's a pity that Xinyijia is even more opaque than the distance. Tian Wanbao, who made great contributions, was kicked out of Xinyijia last year. This is probably the beginning of Xinyijia's downhill.
It's a coincidence that three of the major supermarket chains in the department store industry are all from Jiangbei.
However, there is still a gap between Tian Wanbao and Chen Lang in terms of strength. The opponent's approach is similar to Li Dong's, and he is still inferior to Chen Lang in terms of the overall situation.
What Li Dong wants to find now is someone who can manage the distant supermarket alone and doesn't have to worry about it by himself. Going to Tian Wanbao is of course better than going to Chen Lang.
These thoughts flashed in his mind, Li Dong also smiled and said: "Maybe there will be this opportunity in the future, of course, the premise is that the brother is willing to come and help."
Chen Lang laughed, and after a while he said seriously: "Whether you come or not, I will give you an answer as soon as possible.
If I come, then our next target is China Resources!
If I don't come..."
Chen Lang paused before saying seriously: "Then my next target is you!"
With a few words today, Chen Lang felt the pressure from Li Dong.
This is a guy with ambition, ability and courage.
With him around, the supermarket chain market in the future will definitely not be quiet. Such people are also very dangerous, because they generally do not follow the laws of the market.
Being targeted by Li Dong is very likely to hurt others and himself. Even if Li Dong is finally killed, China Resources is likely to fall out of the first echelon.
And this guy is now clearly targeting China Resources.
Li Dong raised his eyebrows and said: "Then I can only hope that the senior brother will come, otherwise I am afraid that the senior brother will not be able to bear it."
"Hahaha……"
Chen Lang laughed again, sometimes chatting with Li Dong is really interesting.
