Chapter 774 Invisible
Yang Dongxu, who looked exhausted, returned home and threw himself on the sofa, rubbing his forehead constantly. He now understood why so many business leaders who made a lot of money and should be well-off in the eyes of ordinary people, have become bald or bald. Being a leader is really not that easy, so he is going to find a helper for himself.
The game market has been in full swing for several years. Carrefour is so hostile this time. It not only dragged Uni-President into the battle, but also made targeted plans to enter the mainland market.
If he dispersed too much energy on the retail industry, he would not be able to take care of the game market. At this moment, he finally understood why Zhou Ya looked at him with some resentment when he was directly a hands-off boss after digging a pit.
One person's energy really cannot handle so many things, especially when involved in specific work. So he needs to find a reliable professional manager, that is, a CEO for Millennium Supermarket.
Hu Dashan is a good executor, but he is not a good pioneer. When there were no competitors in the domestic market before, he could do his job very well.
But how to defend and counterattack against a strong opponent's attack is a bit stretched, and Yang Dongxu must go bare-handed.
In fact, it is not just the Millennium Supermarket, other industries under Yang Dongxu are also gradually beginning to have such problems. For example, Ye Rongrong at Dongxu Technology, although she worked hard to learn and enhance her personal abilities while working, now feels more and more pressure when she is in charge of the increasingly large Dongxu Technology.
She even took the initiative to ask Yang Dongxu to find a suitable CEO, so Yang Dongxu asked Lei Jun, a programmer, to become the general manager and executive vice president of Dongxu Technology. While developing mobile phones, he participated in the specific management of Dongxu Technology's other businesses.
At Sanwan Travel Agency, Chen Xin is currently focusing on the finance that she is familiar with, but she tries to hand over the CEO work of management to other general managers, because she knows her own ability and cannot control the Sanwan carriage that is starting to accelerate.
Although Xiushui Trade has been making money in recent years, it has not developed well. Almost all the management of Hurricane Construction has been replaced by more capable people such as Zhao Yu.
Huaxiu's situation is the best. Bao Xiaomei, who has received higher education and has outstanding abilities, has enough skills to develop the domestic market or the third place foreign market.
BMW Motor Company has not found a suitable manager, so this time he needs to personally take action when planning imported cars in the United States.
In other words, it is not just Millennium Supermarket. For the better development of the companies under his control. Almost all companies must make up for a batch of top talents. Even if they do not need to recruit all CEOs, they must recruit some capable assistants.
Some old people are increasingly unable to keep up with the development of the company. You must know that China will join the WTO soon. At that time, domestic companies will face more fierce international corporate shocks. How can they fight without a few generals who can keep up with the times?
Yang Dongxu took out his mobile phone and called Li Ji. Although the development of the universal intermediary is not very impressive, Li Ji's ability to handle such a complex market with ease is unquestionable.
He thought about whether to transfer Li Ji to other companies to deal with emergencies, but after thinking for a while, he felt that this was a temporary solution and might even mess up the well-developed intermediary company market.
So he decided to poach people and poach professional talents in a targeted manner. Now that the retail industry needs a general who can stand on his own, he should poach talents in the domestic or international retail industry with a clear goal. As long as he is willing to spend money, he will definitely be able to poach the talents he needs.
After hanging up the phone, Yang Dongxu felt that his energy was completely drained. He lay on the sofa like a dead fish and didn't want to move. He couldn't help thinking that if he could poach Huang Guangtou, or Zhang from Suning, or Ma from Suguo, it would be fine.
If any of these three people took charge of Millennium Supermarket, he could continue to be a hands-off boss. Let these big guys fight with international capital.
Unfortunately, these three people are either the founders of their own companies or shareholders of their own companies. If he wants to poach them, he must be willing to spend a huge amount of money to acquire these three companies.
But with Gome and Suning, even the current assets of Suguo, which was established last. Millennium can barely swallow Suguo, but it is impossible to swallow Gome and Suning. The size of these two companies is not smaller than Millennium.
Going through all the information about Suguo and all the introductions of Lao Ma in his mind. Yang Dongxu shook his head and said that it is not appropriate to start a merger war in China at present, otherwise everyone will be in danger, which will be harmful to resist the entry of foreign companies.
After a night's rest, Yang Dongxu got up early the next day. He had a casual breakfast and prepared to continue the meeting with Hu Dashan and others in the district company. During this period of time when Li Ji did not find a suitable candidate, even if he found a suitable candidate, he had to be familiar with Millennium Supermarket.
"Hey, what's wrong?" When he arrived at the door of the company, he found that the security guard drove a small man with a big forehead out of the door.
"He said he wanted to build a website and let Manager Hu invest. Manager Hu was preparing for the meeting in the morning. He said he could wait, and then he kept lobbying other management of the company, and then" the security guard explained.
"Are you the company leader? Can you give me ten minutes? Three minutes is enough!" Ma Fengyun got rid of the security guard's entanglement, sorted out his clothes and the shoulder bag on his shoulder and said.
The security guard wanted to step forward to stop Yang Dongxu, but waved his hand. He looked at the famous figure in front of him a few years later with interest. The trajectory of history has not changed. The richest man in front of him, who is called an alien, started a business and fooled investors everywhere.
"Ma Fengyun?" Yang Dongxu said.
"Do you know me?" Ma Fengyun's eyes lit up.
"I've heard of it. After all, you seem to know a lot of entrepreneurs." Yang Dongxu said.
Ma Fengyun touched his nose a little embarrassedly. He knew a lot of entrepreneurs. There is no way to fool people into investing. How can you fool them if you don't know them?
However, this embarrassment flashed by. Who is he, Ma Fengyun? He relied on his eloquence to fool the eighteen Arhats with good incomes to resign, and finally rushed to the richest man in China. The embarrassment is just the performance of his immaturity that he has not yet become a great man, but inside he is the guy who regrets creating Alibaba and doesn't like money.
"Aren't you negotiating with Softbank? How come you have time to come here?" Yang Dongxu continued to ask.
Ma Fengyun, who was preparing to fool Yang Dongxu when he saw that Yang Dongxu was willing to talk to him, suddenly changed his face and looked at Yang Dongxu vigilantly.
Alibaba is indeed in contact with Softbank now, but the negotiations are currently deadlocked. Softbank's shareholding requirements are resisted, so everyone is still talking.
And he personally came to Hu Dashan this time, one is because Millennium Supermarket is currently the leader of domestic supermarkets, if he cooperates with him to launch online shopping awards, it will be twice the result with half the effort.
The second is that Millennium has a night logistics system, and it is a strategic partnership with Dafeng Logistics, which has suddenly risen in the past two years. Pulling Millennium is equivalent to pulling half of Dafeng Logistics, which is a great help for his subsequent online shopping.
Although his negotiations with Softbank are not confidential, they are not something that ordinary people can know. Especially after many domestic entrepreneurs rejected him, no one noticed this matter at all. How did this young man know?
Did he know that he was so eager to bring in Millennium and Dafeng Logistics in order to boost Alibaba's confidence and get Softbank to give up on the shares?
Before the doubtful Ma Fengyun could speak, Yang Dongxu continued, "Tell Lao Sun that I agree to the negotiation of investing in Alibaba according to your current requirements, but there is one more thing. Softbank has the priority to invest in the equity under the same financing conditions in the future."
After saying that, he turned around and walked into the company without waiting for Ma Fengyun to answer. Ma Fengyun, who was left messy in the wind, looked at his back as if he was a fool.
"Did this guy's head get caught in the door?" This was Ma Fengyun's first reaction after hearing Yang Dongxu's words.
He admitted that Millennium Supermarket was awesome, but it was awesome in China. You, the leader of Millennium Supermarket, actually ordered Softbank to invest in you, and you agreed? You agreed to it, this guy is better at pretending than you are, and he has reached the realm of pretending like the wind, always accompanying me, and he is at least a street ahead of him who likes to pretend.
When Yang Dongxu came to the company, he was anxious that Hu Dashan and others continued to hold a meeting to study ways to deal with the Carrefour trend. As for Ma Fengyun, he temporarily put it behind his mind.
It's not that he doesn't care about Ma Fengyun. If he didn't care, would he let Softbank invest in Alibaba? It's just that although the development of the domestic Internet has begun to enter the fast lane, it will take a few years for online shopping to develop.
At this time, as long as he continues to invest in Alibaba and give him enough funds to develop. There is no need to get involved and make decisions. In his previous life, the richest man Ma was able to fight his way out of so many difficulties.
What's more, he has opened up the supply of funds in this life, so he only needs to invest money and reap the results. He doesn't have to dig a hole himself like before, and then he has to bury it himself in the end. This time, the hands-off boss is definitely more relaxed and comfortable than any previous digging, and he is also confident and not afraid of being slapped in the face.
Ma Fengyun returned to the company a little unhappy because he was bullied by others.
"How was the talk?" Peng Lei, one of the Eighteen Arhats, asked.
"It was very successful, but they wanted to deal with Carrefour now, so they don't have the energy to do other things for the time being. This cooperation only reached a verbal agreement, and they couldn't spare too much energy to negotiate with us." Ma Fengyun was excited at first, then sighed a little, looking like he was at a bad time.
"How is the negotiation with Minsheng? His online payment system is too important for us." Seeing Peng Lei's eyes that said I don't know you yet, Ma Fengyun touched his nose and changed the subject.
He pretended to be so cool that his companions were used to it and could even see his true intentions at a glance. Ma Fengyun felt that he still had a lot of room for improvement in this regard.
"The progress is not ideal, but I will make an appointment for you to have dinner with Boss Zong tonight."
