Chapter 615 Go home, go home!
Over the years, the two giant companies, Penguin Technology and Ali, have maintained a peaceful and friendly situation on the surface, although they have privately attacked each other's base, such as Penguin Technology in e-commerce and Ali in social networking.
Judging from the final results, Penguin Technology is slightly better. Its social base is as solid as a rock, and it will also support Pinduoduo in the future. With the addition of Jindong, it has indeed caused a lot of pressure and trouble for Ali.
But overall, the two families have always been at peace with each other.
This situation is good for everyone, and the higher-ups are happy to see it, so no one is allowed to disrupt this stable and peaceful relationship. Even if Xiao Ma likes Liang Fei very much, he has to be kicked out under pressure from all sides.
Liu Chiping stood up from his seat, looked at Xiao Ma Ge and asked, "Don't you want to talk to him?"
" This is the result he wants. What's there to discuss?" Brother Ma said calmly, with his back to Liu Chiping. "After the notice is sent out, I'll treat him to a meal as a sign of my commitment."
"Okay." Liu Chiping nodded and prepared to leave while instructing someone to prepare Liang Fei's resignation notice.
The departure of a senior executive vice president-level executive from Penguin Technologies is a big deal both for the company and the industry, because unless such a person retires, he will cause a change in the situation no matter which company he joins.
"Mr. Liu."
Xiao Ma Ge suddenly turned around, put one hand in his pocket, and hung the other hand with a cigarette on his waist, and asked: "Liang Fei left today, and tomorrow he will be the chairman of Lightyear Technology. Even if we have shares in Douyin now, it is still unknown whether these shares can continue to be valid in the future."
"I mean, if you want him to leave so badly, have you ever thought about how to deal with him in the future?"
"Are you ready for this new opponent?"
Seeing Liu Chiping remained silent, Xiao Ma took a puff of his cigarette, turned around and looked out the window and chuckled: "Anyway, I'm not ready yet."
On the same day, the news of Liang Fei's resignation was sent to the mailboxes of all employees through Penguin Technology's internal OA. For the majority of employees at the Binghai Building headquarters, this was simply unbelievable and there was no sign of it.
Obviously, Mr. Liang has been leading several core departments to fight against Ali these days. The fight is intense and relentless, causing many employees to subconsciously start to deal with Ali. The scene of employees of the two companies scolding each other on major forums has long been seen by everyone.
"Why is Mr. Liang leaving suddenly?"
"Doesn't President Ma support President Liang? If so, it makes sense. After all, President Liang has made too many enemies at the headquarters."
"Fuck, the people who do practical work have been forced out again. The executives who are left behind know nothing. All they do is listen to reports and recruit pretty female secretaries. Are we a technology company or a public relations company? What's the point of having so many pretty female secretaries?"
"Fuck, I just submitted a job transfer report yesterday, and the boss of my original department is already unhappy with me. What should I do?"
There were quite a few employees who had this worry, and they gathered together to discuss it. Coincidentally, Liang Fei's secretary Tang Ruijie passed by with a Coke in her hand and gave them a suggestion.
“Why don’t you quit?”
The employees of Penguin Technology asked back: "Where will we go if we resign?"
"Light Year Technology, we are recruiting!" Tang Ruijie said, and then left with a smile, "I was just joking, don't take it seriously, I'm leaving now, I'm going home to pack my luggage."
A group of Penguin Technology employees looked at each other in bewilderment.
"Fuck, the lease is about to expire anyway, why not go to Minghai to develop and invest in it? Are there any brothers who would like to join me?"
"rush?"
“Let’s go!”
For the top leaders, many people knew very well that Liang Fei was in Cao's camp but his heart was with Han. This was one of the reasons why he was so arrogant and everyone tolerated him.
Many executives have a similar mentality. He will leave sooner or later anyway, and he won't stay for long. Just be patient and it will pass.
Finally, what they had been waiting for came. It was like the sun finally appearing after the clouds had parted. Liang Fei's office was crowded with people coming to say goodbye one after another. Senior Executive Director Ren Xingyu was the happiest. After all, what Liang Fei was in control of now were mostly his base and business groups under his jurisdiction.
Ren Xingyu smiled and shook hands with Liang Fei to say goodbye: "Mr. Liang, I didn't expect you to leave now. It's so sudden and I'm not prepared at all. So, please give me some face and I'll treat you to a drink tonight."
Liang Fei was packing up his personal belongings. He had been in this office for more than a year, but it seemed that he had not left any traces. He only kissed Li Jiang here occasionally.
After all, it's not our territory, so we can't be as unbridled as we are in the Light Year Building.
Originally, the relationship between Ren Xingyu and Liang Fei was the most tense. Now that Liang Fei is leaving, Ren Xingyu suddenly felt relieved, thinking that all the things Liang Fei had done before were indeed for the good of the group. Some young management members who were vigorously promoted have now been trained in their respective positions and have demonstrated their abilities and value.
In short, Liang Fei is not so annoying anymore.
"Mr. Ren, thank you, but Mr. Ma wants to treat me to dinner tonight. It only takes me three days to hand over the work, and I will completely end my tenure in three days."
Liang Fei smiled and said, "So, let's meet again some other day."
"Okay then." Ren Xingyu didn't force it. He didn't really want to treat Liang Fei to dinner anyway.
After seeing Ren Xingyu off, Tang Ruijie also finished her stroll and returned to the office, reporting: "Boss Liang, the word has been spread. I think there must be many capable employees willing to work in our company, but those middle-level managers you promoted, are they really willing to give up everything here and follow you?"
"You don't have to follow me. I don't want anything from them anyway."
Liang Fei squatted in front of the table and put some small items in the drawer into the box. After closing it, he said, "Many of them have settled down in Shenzhen. It's impossible for them to change their jobs and lives in another city. It's good that they can still remember my feelings. People are realistic."
Secretary Xiao Tang agreed with this, and Li Chengliang, who was promoted by Liang Fei and now serves as the president of Tianmei Studio Group in Sichuan and Chongqing, chose to stay there.
"But if you leave, won't they be suppressed?" Tang Ruijie asked, "You also said that for large companies, the system is the key, and people are secondary. So their current positions are likely to be replaced."
“No matter how good the system is, it still needs someone to implement it.”
Liang Fei laughed: "Those are the ones who really do things. Do you think Ren Xingyu and the others are all idiots? Only when there are people who do real things in the front, can others enjoy comfortably. Smart people will not suppress them, but will pick a few typical ones to promote and give hope to those who do things."
After packing up, Liang Fei patted Tang Ruijie on the shoulder and said, "When the general manager's office is fully staffed, you will also be a leader. You can put these knowledge points into practice at work in the future."
Tang Ruijie smiled like a rose. Who could have expected that less than two years ago, she was still an unknown receptionist at Cool Live, and her only presence in the company was "that pretty receptionist"
But now, she is about to be the general manager of a quasi-unicorn company.
Oh my goodness.
There are two types of secretaries, one that serves the boss and the other that serves the work. Tang Ruijie is upright and she is very proud that she serves the work.
The job content is not limited to covering for the boss.
The farewell banquet that Xiao Ma Ge prepared for Liang Fei was not held in any luxury hotel or high-end private club, but in a very clean Cantonese restaurant.
“Penguin Technology’s first office was located nearby.”
Brother Ma pointed outside with chopsticks: "The SEG Technology Park in Huaqiangbei is less than 100 square meters, and it is still preserved. I will treat it as a part of the corporate culture for employees to visit, and also keep it as a souvenir for myself."
The dishes were served one after another, and Xiao Ma asked Liang Fei to start eating by herself: "I used to come here often. Many restaurants have disappeared due to demolition or poor business. There are many reasons. Every time I come here, I think, so many years have passed."
"Shenzhen is a city without homesickness. People from all corners of the country immigrate here and naturally bring the flavors of their hometowns with them. I have tasted almost all the specialties from all over the country."
"I have been raising this penguin for almost 20 years, which is neither long nor short. For a company, 20 years is not long, but for me, 20 years is not short." Brother Ma took a bite of the food, looked at Liang Fei and asked, "How many years do you plan to keep Light Year Technology open?"
Liang Fei raised his glass to toast Xiao Ma Ge and said with a smile: "At least it can't be shorter than the existence of Penguin Technology. I'm not only talking about the present, but also the future."
After drinking the beer in the glass, Liang Fei poured another glass and toasted Brother Ma: "Anyway, thank you Mr. Ma for your cultivation for so long. I am very grateful."
"I am very selfish."
Xiao Ma Ge didn't go to get the wine. He ate the bowl of sand crab porridge in front of him and said lightly: "It would be great if I could swallow up Light Year Technology. If I can take down the short video, my company will be able to take advantage again, just like WeChat did back then."
Putting down the spoon, Xiao Ma took out some paper to wipe his mouth and said to Liang Fei: "When I see you, I think of someone, Lei Jun, the CEO of Xiaomi. He was also ambitious to engage in social networking, but was defeated by me. However, he turned to make mobile phones and is now thriving. You are very similar to him. You both started from scratch."
Liang Fei shook her head: "I can't compare to Mr. Lei, he is a genius."
"Your talent lies in planning and strategizing, so there's no need to underestimate yourself." Brother Ma laughed, "Liang Fei, if you want to stay, no matter how many people oppose it, I can suppress it."
Liang Fei was silent for a moment, then picked up the glass again: "Thank you."
Xiao Ma stared at Liang Fei for a long while, and finally raised his cup and clinked it with his: "I wish you were my son."
Liang Fei laughed: "My dad won't agree."
With this, Liang Fei's term as senior executive vice president of Penguin Technologies officially ended.
Brother Ma put down his glass and said, "You are going to take away a lot of my good employees."
"Yes." Liang Fei nodded.
Xiao Ma said calmly: "I will no longer help you with NIO. From an investor's perspective, the stability of a company is even more important than profitability. But I am also looking forward to whether NIO will be more prosperous in your hands than in Li Bin's hands."
"I am very conflicted, so I will not participate in your struggle any longer without helping."
Brother Xiao Ma stood up and said, "This is the last time I will show you my concern from Big Brother."
Liang Fei shouted, "Boss Ma, if you have the chance to come to Minghai, remember to let me know. I'll invite you to my home for a meal."
"Let's talk about it later."
Three days later, Liang Fei, who had completed all work handovers, led Tang Ruijie out of the Binghai Building. Tang Ruijie helped Liang Fei open the car door. Before getting in the car, Liang Fei held the car door with his hand and looked back at the magnificent building.
"Bye, I'm going back to Minghai to continue having fun." After saying that, he got into the car.
Next, as long as NIO is acquired, the current layout will be completed.
The plane flies across the sky
Light Year Building
Starting with Vice President Xiao Ming, dozens of middle and senior management of Lightyear Technology all stood in the square in front of the building.
A Maybach was in front, and a Buick business car was behind, parked steadily in front of everyone. Xiao Ming stepped forward, opened the car door, and said with a smile: "Welcome Mr. Liang to come home and take charge of the situation."
Other executives also came forward to greet them, including some of the management recruited by Liang Fei when he was at Penguin Technologies. Many of them had only met each other and were not familiar with each other at all.
Tang Ruijie got out of the car and kept bowing: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I can't bear it, I can't bear it."
Pop.
Xiao Ming closed the car door, put his hands on his hips and asked, "Where is Mr. Liang?"
"Uh..." Tang Ruijie blinked and laughed dryly, "Boss Liang said that he was exhausted during this period, so he went home to sleep. He should be asleep now."
The useless trio looked at each other.
"Go home and sleep?"
"Do you believe it?"
"I don't believe it anyway."
Liang Fei didn't go home. What's the point of staying at home? Such a big house is empty. If the bed worth hundreds of thousands of dollars doesn't have his beloved girl lying on it, a bunk bed would be better than that.
He went to find Xu Guyong first. To be honest, Liang Fei had never been to Xu's house even though he had known him for such a long time. The main reason was that this guy had many lairs. Once, his wife from his hometown came for a surprise inspection and searched three properties but found no clues.
Afterwards, Xu Guyong boasted to Liang Fei that a truly strong man is never afraid of a challenge. Before he took a girl home, he would randomly pick up a bunch of keys from the drawer with the address of the property on them. He would go wherever he got the address. There was no chance he would be caught this way.
Liang Fei came here only after calling in advance to find out where Old Xu was. She opened the door and walked in, and almost slipped.
After a closer look, it turned out to be a pair of torn stockings. Liang Fei tried to shout, "Brother, can I come in?"
"Wait a minute, brother!"
Xu Guyong shouted from inside the house: "Do you want to come together? If not, wait in the living room. I'll be there soon!"
Liang Fei: “…”
After sitting on the sofa in the living room for more than 20 minutes, the bedroom door opened and a young and beautiful girl dressed neatly came out. She bowed slightly and greeted Liang Fei politely: "Hello, Mr. Liang."
Liang Fei took a closer look and felt that she looked familiar. Then he remembered that this was the girl who had fanned him in the tea room at that time.
The girl, wearing a black leather skirt and with bare thighs, walked to the entrance, squatted down, picked up her stockings, put them in her bag, opened the door and left.
Xu Guyong came out in his pajamas, with his long hairy legs bare and a cigarette in his mouth. He sat down next to Liang Fei, yawned and asked, "I said, didn't you just come back today? Why don't you go to the company to find me?"
"Serious cases require strong medicine." Liang Fei raised a finger. "The difficulties I'm facing now can no longer be solved by conventional means, but if you are someone who disregards morality, maybe you can give me some good ideas."
"Let her get pregnant!"
“This PASS.”
"Then let the person she hates get pregnant!"
“…”
Oh, you got the wrong person.
