Chapter 235 Recommending Li Caixin as the General Manager of the First Shipping Group
Chapter 235 Recommend Li Caixin as the general manager of the First Shipping Group!
Yang Ming wants to privatize the shipping companies under the Wharf Group, the shipping companies under Hutchison Whampoa, and the shipping companies under the Jardine Matheson Group. They have no problem with it.
"Boss, I have no problem with the establishment of the First Shipping Company." Mai Lisi said.
"Boss, I have no problem either."
. . .
Ma Shimin, Wei Li, Bao Fuda, Wei Peter and others expressed their opinions.
Now Yang Ming said a word, of course they support it.
Mai Lisi is the general manager of the Empire Group, Ma Shimin is the general manager of the Jardine Matheson Group, Wei Li is the executive president of Hutchison Whampoa, Bao Fuda is the general manager of the Landmark Group, and Wei Peter is the general manager of the Wharf Group.
In addition to Mai Lisi, Ma Shimin, Wei Li, Bao Fuda, and Wei Peter now control the four major groups under their respective control.
Now that these groups are controlled by Yang Ming and the group, he wants to privatize his shipping companies, which is actually just a sentence.
"After the establishment of the First Shipping Group in Hong Kong, do you have any recommendations for the general manager of the First Shipping Group?"
General Manager of the First Shipping Group?
This position is not small.
Now that the three major shipping groups and related shipping businesses have been established, the carrying capacity has exceeded three million tons, which is already the third largest shipping group in Hong Kong.
If the Empire Group and Mr. Yang continue to invest in the First Shipping Group, it will definitely exceed 10 million tons in the future, and even exceed the global shipping of the Bao Yugang family.
That means that this general manager position is really not inferior to their current position.
It is impossible to say that they are not tempted.
However, whether it is Mai Lisi, Ma Shimin, Wei Li, Wei Peter, or Bao Fuda, I am afraid that they will not leave their current positions.
Yang Ming looked at Mai Lisi and the others, and also looked at Kaila, Tang Shilian, and Lin Xiuzhi.
Among them, Kaila recommended Ma Shimin to him.
Ma Lisi volunteered to join the Empire Group.
"Kayla, do you have a suitable candidate?"
The right candidate?
This position is really important.
Kayla hasn't thought of a suitable candidate yet.
"Mr. Yang, I haven't thought of a suitable candidate yet."
Yang Ming sat there drinking tea.
Mai Lisi and others were thinking there.
At this time, Wei Li said: "Boss, I have two suitable candidates to recommend."
"You say."
"The first one is Li Caixin, the former executive vice president of Hutchison Whampoa, who now takes over the position of Mr. Wei Peter, the political director."
"The second one is Xia Boyin, the business director of Hutchison Whampoa."
Li Caixin?
Xia Boyin?
Historically, Hutchison Whampoa has three horses.
Especially after Wei Li was forced away by Li Jiacheng, Li Caixin, Xia Boyin, and Wei Peter respectively controlled the management rights of Hutchison Whampoa.
But now Yang Ming also knows.
In Hutchison Whampoa, except for Wei Li and Wei Peter, white management such as Li Caixin and Xia Boyin, on the surface, have nothing to do with him, but in fact, they still do not obey the Empire Group, the major shareholder that has already controlled the shares.
Now Wei Peter has been transferred from Hutchison Whampoa to Wharf Group as the general manager of Wharf Group.
The second-in-command executive vice president of Hutchison Whampoa was also transferred to the position of Peter Wei.
Some time ago.
Li Caixin still complained that why Wei Li, who was so familiar with him, did not recommend him to his boss Yang Ming as the general manager of the Wharf Group?
After all, people go to high places and water flows to low places.
Li Caixin felt that he was more capable than Peter Wei.
Yang Ming almost wanted to laugh when he heard the candidates recommended by Wei Li.
Yang Ming always wanted to completely digest Hutchison Whampoa and turn Hutchison Whampoa into his company.
However, because of the relationship between those white management, just like Li Jiacheng's entry into Hutchison Whampoa in history, it is not so easy to eat.
Even with the help of Wei Li and Peter Wei, all the white management in Hutchison Whampoa are controlled by Li Caixin and Xia Boyin.
If these two people are transferred from Hutchison Whampoa, Wei Li can completely control Hutchison Whampoa, and then Hutchison Whampoa will naturally become the private property of Empire Group and Yang Ming.
Now except for Bao Fuda.
Mai Lisi, Ma Shimin, Wei Peter, Kayla, Tang Shilian and others all had their eyes brightened.
The reason why Bao Fuda didn't say anything was because he hadn't really integrated into the group yet.
Although Yang Ming and Mai Lisi had allowed him to join the team.
However, he would not take the initiative to show himself unless it was absolutely necessary.
He thought that Wei Li was really a smart man for the candidate he proposed.
Because he also knew the situation of the internal management of Hutchison Whampoa.
As the executive president of Hutchison Whampoa and the boss of Hutchison Whampoa, Wei Li could suppress those white management.
When those white management knew that Wei Li had approached Mr. Yang, those white management would definitely move closer to Li Caixin and Xia Boyin.
"Wei Li, do you think Xia Boyin is more suitable, or Li Caixin is more suitable?"
Which of these two people is more suitable?
In terms of ability, of course Li Caixin is stronger.
However, Li Caixin likes to bring the white people's style to other places and doesn't want to be interfered with by other shareholders.
The newly formed First Shipping Group is different. It is wholly owned by Yang Ming and Empire Group.
That is to say, this is different from a group like Hutchison Whampoa.
In that case, if Li Caixin didn't really work for Yang Ming, Yang Ming could have asked him to leave First Shipping immediately.
When he left First Shipping, not only could he not return to Hutchison Whampoa, he would have to find a position in another company again.
At that time, it was not so easy.
Then he would be manipulated by Yang Ming at will.
As for Xia Boyin, he is the business director of Hutchison Whampoa, and his business ability is naturally strong, but he, like Peter Wei, is a more stable person.
If he is asked to take over the newly formed First Shipping Company, I am afraid he is not as suitable as Li Caixin.
Wei Li is introducing the situation of these two people separately.
And the impact of these two people on Hutchison Whampoa after leaving Hutchison Whampoa.
In this case, Yang Ming feels that Li Caixin is really more suitable to be the general manager of First Shipping.
As for why he was not allowed to take over as the general manager of Wharf?
That's because Yang Ming didn't want him to bring his style at Hutchison Whampoa to Wharf.
Hutchison Whampoa is Li Caixin's home base. If Li Caixin leaves Hutchison Whampoa, he will basically be controlled by Yang Ming.
When thinking of this, not only Yang Ming laughed, but also Mai Lisi and others laughed.
Bao Fuda and Wei Peter were a little scared.
They didn't expect that the boss Mr. Yang and Mai Lisi would consider it so comprehensively.
It's not unfair to think that Henry Joseph and Niu Bijian of Jardine Matheson Land lost to Yang Ming.
The most important thing is that Yang Ming will seriously consider and listen to the suggestions of the white management present.
"Wei Li, let Li Caixin serve as the general manager of the First Shipping Group. As for the position of political director vacated by him, you can re-arrange a suitable candidate to replace him."
"Yes, boss."
If that is the case, Hutchison Whampoa's troika.
Now, except for Li Caixin, Wei Li is on Yang Ming's side. The remaining Xia Boyin basically has no chance of resistance. Compared with the history, Li Jiacheng needed to rely on Ma Shimin, Huo Jianning and other talents to drive Li Caixin and others away before completely digesting Hutchison Whampoa.
Yang Ming's move is indeed much simpler and more clever.
"Wei Li, go back and talk to Li Caixin first, and then ask him to come to the Repulse Bay Hillside Villa to see me. Tomorrow, I will formally announce the establishment of the First Shipping Group and personnel appointments in the Empire Group conference room."
"Yes, boss."
Yang Ming discussed this matter with them.
Mai Lisi and others left first.
Wei Li left the Repulse Bay Hillside Villa and called Li Caixin first to ask him out for a talk.
Li Caixin was already resting in a high-end apartment in the central district of Hong Kong.
"Sir, your call is from Mr. Wei Li."
A call from Mr. Wei Li?
Although Li Caixin had already discovered that Wei Li was different from before, Li Caixin still admired Wei Li very much.
After answering the phone, Li Caixin learned that Wei Li was waiting for him outside in a cafe.
Wei Li didn't know what it was.
He told his wife.
He put on a coat and drove to the cafe that Wei Li mentioned.
When he got out of the car and walked towards the cafe, he soon saw Wei Li waving at him in the cafe.
"President, what do you want?"
Li Caixin was very surprised. Why couldn't he just say it in the company or on the phone, but asked him to come out and talk.
Wait for the waitress to bring a cup of coffee to Li Caixin.
Li Caixin didn't drink it, fearing that he would not be able to sleep when he went back, he just drank a glass of lemonade prepared next to him.
"Li Caixin, congratulations."
"Me?"
Some time ago, he was demoted from the executive vice president of Hutchison Whampoa to the position of Peter Wei's political director.
He was still surprised.
However, he felt that this must be Mr. Yang's arrangement.
"Mr. Yang, chairman of the Empire Group, wants to set up the First Shipping Group. Let me recommend the general manager of the First Shipping Group. I recommend you and Xia Boyin respectively."
General manager of the First Shipping Group?
He and Xia Boyin?
Li Caixin seemed to be a little unresponsive.
Wei Li continued: "Mr. Yang wants to vigorously develop the shipping industry. Among them, the three major shipping industries under the Wharf Group, Hutchison Whampoa Group, and Jardine Matheson Group will be formed into a new First Shipping Group. The total tonnage will exceed three million tons. It is the third largest shipping group in Hong Kong after Bao Yugang Global Shipping, Asia Shipping, and Dong Haoyun Orient Overseas. According to Mr. Yang's plan, the scale of the First Shipping Group will exceed 10 million tons in the future, and it is even likely to exceed the global shipping scale of the Bao Yugang family."
A shipping group with more than 10 million tons, and more than the global shipping scale of the Bao Yugang family?
Li Caixin took a deep breath.
With the current strength of the Empire Group, it is not impossible.
After the merger of the shipping business of these three major shipping companies, it will exceed the scale of 3 million tons. The strength is not to be underestimated. After a few years of development, it is not impossible to exceed 10 million tons.
In other words, the position of the general manager of the First Shipping Group is very important.
"President, why me?"
"I recommended you and Xia Boyin to Mr. Yang, but you are more capable and motivated than Xia Boyin. Xia Boyin is more stable and is not the candidate Mr. Yang wants."
He is more capable than Xia Boyin?
Li Caixin also knew that he was.
Otherwise, he would not be the executive vice president of Hutchison Whampoa, the second in command of Hutchison Whampoa, and even succeeded Wei Li in history.
Now Wei Li meant that Mr. Yang needed a very motivated and aggressive general manager.
Then, he would be more suitable than Xia Boyin.
"If you don't want to, I will recommend Xia Boyin again."
Wei Li stirred the cup of coffee and said.
"President, I do."
Such a good opportunity, why would he not want it?
Obviously, this First Shipping Group may be one of the most important group companies under the Empire Group in the future. If the scale exceeds that of Global Shipping, like the Wharf Group, these are really not as good as First Shipping.
At this time, Li Caixin has the goal of admiring Mr. Yang.
