Chapter 1005 The World is in Turmoil
The drinking lasted from the afternoon to the evening. Luo Yang was in a bad mood and drank too much without realizing it.
After seeing off Wang Shuo and Ma Dudu, Song Chaoyuan saw that Luo Yang was in such a state that he couldn't go back by himself, so he thought about it and arranged for him to sleep in the guest room first. After settling Luo Yang, Song Chaoyuan called Li Xiaoyun and told her that Luo Yang was resting at his home today, so she could rest assured.
After a good night's sleep, Luo Yang woke up at nine o'clock the next day. He opened his eyes and looked around. It took him a while to remember that he had been drinking with Song Chaoyuan and others yesterday. Then he looked carefully and realized that he was lying in the guest room of Song Chaoyuan's house.
Although he drank too much yesterday, Luo Yang's mind was clear after a night of rest. After breakfast, Luo Yang came to the study in the backyard. Song Chaoyuan seemed to have known that he would come and had already made tea for him.
"Where are Uncle Lin and Aunt Chen? Why don't I see them here?" Sitting down in front of Song Yuanchao, Luo Yang looked outside and asked.
When he came yesterday, he didn't see Lin Daoyuan, and even Chen Yuqin. He forgot to ask yesterday because he was drinking, and only remembered this now.
Song Yuanchao smiled and said that the two of them went to Hong Kong. Fortunately, he was Luo Lin's younger brother. He had forgotten that his sister had been in Hong Kong with her children these two days. Not only Luo Lin and her family, but Lin Yan also went there with her children. Didn't she just leave two days ago?
"Look at my memory!" Luo Yang slapped his forehead. Yes, he heard Li Xiaoyun mention it a few days ago. Li Xiaoyun had originally planned to go, but because something happened suddenly in Yanjing, Li Xiaoyun and the child did not go. They have been accompanying Luo Yang in Yanjing these days.
"Does your headache hurt? Drink some tea to wake you up." Song Chaoyuan picked up the teapot in front of him and poured a cup of tea for Luo Yang. Luo Yang took it and took a small sip. Because Song Chaoyuan had specially brewed it a little strong, the tea was a little bitter. Luo Yang frowned slightly, but he still continued to drink the whole cup of tea.
Song Chaoyuan poured him another glass and handed him a cigarette.
Luo Yang lit a cigarette and smoked without saying a word. He seemed to be still worried about the company's affairs.
"Yuan Chao, you said I treated them well. If it weren't for me, they wouldn't have achieved what they have today. How could they hide this from me and hook up with Brother Wang Jun? People should always talk about friendship, right? How could this be? I believe I have never treated them unfairly!"
There was confusion and grievance in Luo Yang's words. Compared with other businessmen, Luo Yang was indeed very good. He had a bottom line and was generous in doing things. Moreover, from the establishment of the company to now, although Luo Yang was the boss, he had never forced his people to do anything messy.
"I know, I understand..." Song Chaoyuan comforted him. He could see that Luo Yang was getting a little too obsessed, but it was no wonder that he thought so, because Luo Yang always felt that he had never treated anyone unfairly, but now so many people had secretly gone to the rival company without his knowledge, which made Luo Yang really confused.
Picking up the teacup in front of him and taking a sip, Song Chaoyuan said, "Brother, have you heard of this saying?"
Luo Yang looked back at Song Chaoyuan in confusion.
Song Chaoyuan said: "I once heard someone say this: in the workplace , if your subordinates want to leave you, there are only two reasons. One is that they are paid less, and the second is that they are wronged. So what do you think they will do when they go to Wang Jun's company?"
Song Chaoyuan's words made Luo Yang stunned. The expression on his face became a little uncertain, and he was thinking in his heart.
Being wronged? This shouldn't happen. Luo Yang's company atmosphere is still good, and Luo Yang is very caring towards his employees. The entertainment industry is not the same as before. The atmosphere was very good before, but with the development of the economy in recent years, some messy things have emerged.
But Luo Yang has always done well in this regard. Of course, in addition to the fact that he himself can't stand these things, it is also related to Luo Yang's status in the industry. After all, Luo Yang is not only the boss of a film and television company, but also has a strong family background. In addition, Luo Yang has a close relationship with the famous Shenghua, etc. Some people who understand will not go too far for Luo Yang's face.
But the problem is that although Luo Yang thinks so, he cannot guarantee that others will think so. People are different, this industry is much more complicated than other industries, and if you want to succeed in this industry, it is not absolute to rely solely on your own talent or hard work.
Especially for young girls, youth is short. If they can’t seize the present, then when their youth is gone, everything will be too late.
Moreover, the thinking of today's young people is different from that of Song Chaoyuan and his generation. Song Yuanchao and his generation had feelings and beliefs, and also had down-to-earth persistence. But today's young people no longer care about these people, and often pursue practical benefits, especially in this industry. To use Zhang Ailing's words to describe it, it is "become famous as early as possible."
"What do you mean..." Luo Yang was a smart man. He quickly understood what Song Chaoyuan meant. He thought for a moment and asked, "Did I pay too little? But that's not right! The money I paid is not too little in this industry!"
"You didn't give too little, but you blocked their chance to make extra money." Song Chaoyuan drank the tea in his hand, washed the cup again, and then filled it again.
"Those who understand understand that sometimes you block a lot of things for the benefit of those below you, but have you ever thought that by doing so you are also blocking their path to wealth? Young people, especially men, are better off. After all, men are in their prime at 31. As long as they are willing to study hard and have talent, they will always have a bright future. But what about women? Women are just rotten vegetables at 30. The best years of a girl's life are just a few short years. If she can't get ahead or make money in these few years, why should she continue to suffer?"
"This industry has always been like this. Although it has a much better reputation now, you know the real situation better than me. Brother, sometimes you should let go. People who keep themselves clean are not the whole story. Now is an era where everything is about money. Why do you have to go through so much trouble to be a bad guy?"
Luo Yang did not speak, his expression was solemn and tangled. He admitted that Song Chaoyuan was right, and he had not considered some things in this way. He did this for the good of others, out of kindness, but it was precisely because of this that Luo Yang's actions conflicted with the current era, and people's hearts were no longer as simple as before. Over time, because of Luo Yang's restrictions, wouldn't some people with ideas have opinions?
It is precisely because of this that the Wang Jun brothers found an opportunity. Flies don't bite eggs without cracks. Under the temptation of the Wang Jun brothers, some people who pursue practical interests will be tempted, so it is inevitable that such a situation will happen.
"Did I really do something wrong?" Luo Yang couldn't help but ask Song Chaoyuan.
Patting Luo Yang on the shoulder, Song Yuanchao said earnestly: "It's not that you are wrong, it's that the times have changed. Sometimes persistence is a virtue, but excessive persistence is also a shortcoming. Brother, in the future, turn a blind eye to some things. Protect those that are worth protecting, and let those that are not worth protecting go. Why be the bad guy in this matter?"
Luo Yang remained silent. After a long while, he sighed and said, "Maybe you are right. Let me think about this again... Think about it carefully..."
"You need to think about it carefully. You also need to find a way to win people's hearts and make them feel a sense of belonging to the company. Although you are the boss, the people below you also need protection. You have to be willing to give up. Sometimes you can only gain if you give up. You can appropriately let some backbones and pillars participate in the direct management of the company, or even obtain a portion of the company's shares, and become one of the company's owners from being a company member . Isn't this better than doing other things?"
"This is a good suggestion!" Luo Yang's eyes suddenly lit up. He was not a pedantic person. Over the years, he had not only been developing his own business, but also participated in part of Shenghua's operations. Luo Yang was responsible for the import and export of raw materials for Shenghua's affiliated fast-moving consumer goods companies. With the continuous expansion of Shenghua over the years, Luo Yang's company had become one of Shenghua's main suppliers. It was also the most profitable of the companies directly controlled by Luo Yang.
Song Chaoyuan has made several adjustments since Shenghua was first established , and each adjustment was based on the development of Shenghua. During the several adjustments, Song Yuanchao not only adjusted Shenghua's corporate structure, but also adjusted Shenghua's equity ratio, and even took out a lot of shares for internal employee incentives.
This is the case with Shenghua now. As long as the internal management reaches a certain level, they can own some management shares. In addition, when Shenghua's subsidiaries are listed, the management and employees who have made important contributions to the company also have the right to subscribe first.
These measures enabled Shenghua to stabilize its management and internal affairs during its development and created a large number of wealthy people in the company.
For example, Xu Hui, Zhou Junhao, Zhang Jiaming and others who followed Qin Zhengguo the earliest. Xu Hui is not to be mentioned. She has long been one of the company's shareholders. As for Zhou Junhao and Zhang Jiaming, plus Sun Yaoliang, Xiaoqi, Zheng Guoyuan and others in China, each of them is now worth a lot of money. Therefore, Shenghua's management team, whether it is the headquarters or its subsidiaries, has much stronger cohesion than other companies. There is a saying in the domestic business community that if you want to find a job, it is a blessing to be able to work in Shenghua.
Song Yuanchao's reminder made Luo Yang suddenly enlightened. This was a very good suggestion. Luo Yang immediately thought about how to handle this matter. After thinking about it, he discussed it with Song Chaoyuan. Song Chaoyuan gave Luo Yang some suggestions and references, and also told him that if he wanted to do this, it would be best to first form a professional team to adjust , change the company's structure and equity structure, and then operate in this way.
The chat lasted until noon. After lunch, Luo Yang couldn't wait to leave. Before leaving, he suddenly remembered something and turned around to ask Song Chaoyuan who said that. Song Chaoyuan asked what it was. Luo Yang repeated something about not having enough money and being wronged. Song Chaoyuan laughed and shook his head and said he couldn't remember it. Besides, why did it matter who said it? As long as it made sense, it would be fine.
