Section 167: Unprecedented Salary Increase Plan
All major newspapers in Shandong Province welcomed Li Cong, who had just topped the Forbes list, with headlines. During the few months he went to Taiwan, Li Cong absolutely defeated Mr. Warren Buffett to become the richest man in the world. The richest man in the world who is only 25 years old is a question mark about his current wealth. Forbes does not know the cost of the energy group, so it cannot be calculated, but some other data show that he is the richest man in the world.
At the first board meeting after Li Cong came back, Li Cong suddenly announced that the company would immediately expand and invest 13 billion yuan to build a third production base in Zhejiang, with an annual output of 40 million tons. Invested 10 billion to build a fourth production base in Zhanjiang, Guangxi, with an annual output of 45 million tons.
Zhongyuan Machinery Factory, Liaohe Heavy Industry, Baoshan Iron and Steel and other large domestic machinery manufacturing groups took over the manufacturing orders of 800 energy conversion machines from Energy Group, with a total value of 4 billion yuan. The two bases will only use 400 million yuan. For the rest, after learning the lesson at the Qingdao base, Li Cong required that every five machines must have a spare machine, so as to ensure the supply of fuel.
The original two bases can already reach an annual output of 180 million tons, which is already the limit output. Li Cong has already communicated with the government. The government plans to close several oil fields with low oil production and reduce imports from the Persian Gulf. Petroleum, so that Li Cong must supply 150 million tons of domestic environmental protection oil every year, and PetroChina and Sinopec will divide the share of 75 million tons each. Out of Hongmen's 20 million tons, Li Cong only had 5 million tons for his own distribution, and the remaining 40 million tons were taken by the state.
The group now has a large amount of surplus funds, about 200 billion yuan, which Li never thought of. There was still a big hole when he left. Now he has returned all the money from the country, but the expansion The pace can only be so fast. The government does not allow itself to order energy conversion machines from foreign machinery manufacturers. The domestic production capacity has been fully used, and Li Cong can only invest the money in other places.
It’s not that Li has never made an investment, but those few investments are meant to be exchanged. At present, Samsung Electronics and Great Wall Electronics are currently on the table. After this period of development, the home appliance retail industry in the country is also small. Famous, so Li Cong decided to withdraw several marketing stores from Gome Suning's stores and start a new one by himself.
Therefore, the board of directors has made a decision to allocate 12 billion yuan to build a new Great Wall Group. There is only one goal. Whether it is acquisition or new construction, it must become the top five in the domestic home appliance retail industry within a year. It is very difficult, but Li Cong intends to let Jiang Qinglan, an expert, do it for him. The business in Southeast Asia will not be fully rolled out until the construction of the Zhanjiang base is completed. How big is it.
"Everyone, I would like to introduce a new member of the board of directors, Ms. Jiang Qinglan, who is the Maxima I found in Taiwan. Ms. Jiang graduated from the Royal Institute of Finance and served as the CEO of the Chiang Consortium in Taiwan for several years. The annual profit exceeds Fifteen percent, so I am going to appoint Ms. Jiang as the new CEO of Great Wall Appliances Group. The company will also give you 12 billion yuan to let you realize the plan made by the head office. I hope you can live up to the company's expectations " Li Cong spoke beautifully, but Jiang Qinglan could see from Li Cong's eyes that Li Cong didn't trust her at all, otherwise such a thing would not have happened. Compared with the business in Southeast Asia, the scale of the Great Wall Group is really small. It’s too small, ten times the gap, since the boss has given the exam questions, just do it as an employee, after all, the annual salary is one billion yuan.
"There is one more thing about the benefits here. I decided to greatly increase the salaries of everyone. First of all, Ms. Li Yan, the chief executive officer and financial director, has made great contributions to the company. The president (Li Cong's father, brother-in-law Liang Chen, wife Zhou Xue) mentioned 2 billion yuan,
The ministers of other ministries cost 200 million yuan, including Li Hui, Minister of Production, Li Ming, Minister of Construction, 500 million yuan, and Minister of Personnel (Li Cong's mother) 1 billion yuan. "Li Cong's salary increase policy came up on the spur of the moment, and everyone looked incredible. In this way, the annual salary of the dozens of people present here is tens of billions, and their salary increase has also set a world record. Both have increased more than ten times.
"I oppose this salary increase plan. The company's current benefits are already very high. The company provides each board member with premium cars, high-end villas and other subsidies that reach an astonishing hundreds of millions of yuan every year. It can be said that if the salary increase If the plan is passed, the board of directors alone will cost the company 70 billion yuan a year, and if the press finds out about these things, I’m afraid our life will be very difficult." Li Yan immediately raised an objection, yes, in this office, dare to follow Except for Li Yan, Li Cong was the only one who confronted this. Jiang Qinglan was also very surprised to attend the board meeting for the first time. The executive directors of other companies had already left after talking to the president like this, and the chairman of the board of directors of other companies was announcing When making any decisions, I always communicate with the director. This salary increase plan is bigger than my own investment plan. This kind of thing is not discussed by the siblings.
"Director Li, I have carefully considered this plan. Other companies can allot shares to directors. Strictly speaking, we cannot be called the board of directors, because you don't have any shares, so you can't become super rich. Maybe you think The annual salary of tens of millions is quite a lot, but this is impossible. The directors of the world's largest companies are not based on hundreds of millions of dollars in income. Some of you want me to share some shares with the directors , the government also asked our energy group to go public, but I resisted it all. It is impossible. I say this now, and I will say the same in the future. The energy group will only have one shareholder. It is me now and my son in the future. " Li Cong said all this resolutely, especially when it came to his son, the expressions of Zhou Xue and Zhou Yu were a little unnatural. During the days when Li Cong was away, Zhou Xue had understood everything, and it was a done deal. It is not uncommon for sisters to serve a husband together in history, as long as they keep it from their parents, it is a pity that neither of the sisters gave birth to a son, so they only worked harder at night.
Li Cong's strength was undoubtedly revealed at this time, and Li Yan, as an older sister, could only obey, so she had to think about it with Li Cong in the future not to issue it directly in the form of money, which would cause a lot of shock.
After the meeting, Li Cong went to his office, which became a baby room. His two daughters sat in front of the huge French windows and looked at the beautiful spring city. They were all at home, but Li Cong wanted to make his daughter familiar with him From the day I came back, the home of the two babies became Li Cong's office. As long as it was not windy and rainy, I had to come here to work with Li Cong. Have considerable nursing experience.
The eldest daughter, Li Yinyun, likes this place very much. She is very excited when she comes here every day, but the younger daughter, Li Yinluan, doesn’t like it very much. When she comes here, her father only smiles when she plays with her, and she dares not play with some toys. Fighting with my sister, but being a sister is not the kind of bullying my sister. When strangers come in, they will take the initiative to climb in front of my sister. This makes Li Cong very relieved, but for the rest of the two babies, Li Cong A 30-square-meter lounge is specially separated from the office to give the two babies a place to rest.
Li Cong is very selfish as a father, he can see his daughter at any time, but the two wives are busy on other floors, and sometimes they can't come up to see it all day, but Li Cong's parents don't care what Li Cong does. He came to see his granddaughter when he was free, and Li Cong couldn't say anything. When his father saw him frowning, he said, "It's a big deal to fire me, that's better, I will come here full-time to look after the children."
