Volume 3: Taking Roots 2016 Chapter 717 A Little Break in Life
But no matter what, doing charity is the same as making money. It's like Han Xin selecting soldiers, the more the better.
It’s just that one is out and the other is in.
What's more, if public welfare and charity are just done on a small scale, it may not cause any waves, but if it is done on a large scale, who knows what demons and monsters may be touched.
Therefore, even if you are doing good deeds, you certainly cannot do it alone. After all, you will not only encounter "ghosts" when walking at night.
Therefore, being able to nominally get help from these profit-seeking investment institutions is naturally a good thing. After all, in this matter...
Zhou Dongsheng, who had strengthened his belief, was not prepared to stop halfway, but was determined to go all the way!
"Since you are all so enthusiastic, I would be disrespectful to refuse. I would like to thank you for your generosity in advance on behalf of those who will be helped."
"Once the money is in the account of Dongsheng Charity Fund, everyone can rest assured that I will make the origin and development of every fund public in an open and transparent manner..."
Zhou Dongsheng smiled and said nonchalantly that he still had to say the polite words. After all, at this moment, he didn't need to worry about this little money.
"Hey, Jay Chou, you're too serious. Since we are willing to pay this money, we naturally have confidence in Jay Chou. Also, this is only the first donation. Public welfare and charity are long-term, so our support is naturally..."
The external director said this very lightly, but what he meant was: We have given our sincerity anyway, and the rest depends on Zhou Dongsheng's performance.
If one can really continue to get enough returns from him, then it would be natural to set aside a portion of the profits to support public welfare and charity and play with Zhou Dongsheng.
But if Zhou Dongsheng is unable to succeed him, I believe this group of people will run away faster than anyone else. After all, if you want to do charity, there are places where you can do it.
Naturally, there is no need to spend money to build a platform for Zhou Dongsheng. After all, the Dongsheng Charity Fund is used to buy Zhou Dongsheng's reputation...
But at the moment, being able to sit at this conference table, everyone naturally maintains a lively atmosphere of mutual respect.
As for Zhou Dongsheng, he naturally didn't think too much about it. He just followed the meeting rules. After all, this most important position was still vacant.
After all, such a large group has more than just a board of directors responsible for the group's specific affairs and company management. There are also two crucial positions that need to be arranged.
One of them is naturally the well-known chief executive officer, abbreviated as CEO, also commonly known as the president. Generally speaking, he is the highest manager of the group except the board of directors.
At the same time, he is directly appointed by the board of directors. As for the chairman, he generally does not participate in the specific business of the company and is only responsible for matters related to the board of directors.
It can be said that this position of "hands-off boss" was tailor-made for Zhou Dongsheng.
However, in most cases, in order to ensure that internal management is not disconnected, the chairman of most companies will also serve as the chief executive officer to ensure that power is in their own hands.
This is the fundamental reason why the pig factory and Ding Sanshi once experienced power struggles and management turmoil. This shows the importance of this position.
Although Zhou Dongsheng wanted to be a hands-off boss, after being reminded by Ding Sanshi, he naturally could not be so naive as to hand over the power in his hands and leave this huge business to outsiders.
After all, Ding Sanshi was able to turn the tide back then, so Zhou Dongsheng asked himself if he had the skills and confidence to do so... The answer was self-evident.
In addition to this position, the position of general manager is also crucial. He can be said to be the group's chief steward, in charge of all matters big and small within the head office.
After all, the concept of a "group" is ultimately still a company, but it just has some subsidiaries integrated under it.
Naturally, the position of the Grand Chamberlain must be given to someone with superior abilities, so that Zhou Dongsheng can have less worries.
As for ability, reality is not a game after all, and it is difficult to express it directly in the form of numbers, so the resume naturally becomes very important.
The premise for Liu Bei's three visits to Zhuge Kongming's thatched cottage was that Zhuge Kongming had already been known as "Wolong" early on. If he had not been known as "Wolong or Phoenix, if you get one of them, you can get the world."
It is impossible for Liu Bei to visit him three times, right? The same is true if Liu Bei was not a descendant of the Han Dynasty who supported the Han Dynasty, but was just an unknown person...
It remains to be seen whether Zhuge Kongming would pay attention to him, or whether there was such a thing as the Three Oaths of Peach Garden.
Although it is said that "a hero is not judged by his origin", that is only after you become a hero. If you are just a nobody, who will care about you?
Looking at the team under Zhou Dongsheng, the one with the most dazzling resume is Zhang Xiaoguang, who came from behind to take over, after all, he is the one who actually managed a listed company.
Even Zhou Dongsheng would be ashamed of himself for this achievement. After all, he bought a lot of shares of this listed company, but the listing, according to the strict standards of A-shares...
Zhou Dongsheng is obviously still far from it. As for the idea of backdoor listing, it is a bit too early for Dongsheng Group at the moment.
Especially with the cash cow "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" in place, when you have enough funds to meet development needs, going public is not a must.
In this regard, Mihayo, one of the projects invested by Zhou Dongsheng, is the best proof. Of course, their decision not to go public was also a helpless choice after they were unable to go public.
After three years of dormancy, it suddenly exploded and became a typical example of "30 years in the east, 30 years in the west".
The stock market ignored me back then, but you can’t reach me today. I have to say that this company is worthy of its origin from the second dimension. From top to bottom, it is filled with a strong atmosphere of a middle school student.
Then again, although Zhang Xiaoguang is the perfect choice, if something is too easy to get, then it will not be cherished too much, so...
"Ahem, finally, let's talk about the appointment of the group's senior management. I will temporarily take on the position of president. As for the group's general manager, I suggest that Zhang Xiaoguang take over as the acting general manager..."
"Of course, this is all temporary. I am not a dictatorial person. 'Talents should be put to good use and those who are capable should be given the positions' is still my motto. However, the group has just been established, so everything needs to be observed."
"In the coming period, if anyone wants to compete, they should show real results. The capable ones will be promoted, the excellent ones will be rewarded, the mediocre ones will be demoted, and the inferior ones will be eliminated. Rewards and punishments will be clearly defined."
"As long as you have enough ability, the position of CEO is waiting for you...but~"
Zhou Dongsheng cleared his throat and used his best trick again, painting a rosy picture for the managers. However, if it was just a rosy picture, it was obviously not good enough.
This principle of combining sweet treats with a big stick cannot be absent.
"If someone is just sitting there doing nothing, engaging in corruption, or doing something shameful and unpresentable, I will not let them off easily."
"In addition to the three major departments, the group will also set up a supervisory department, which will be headed by Assistant Dong and report directly to me."
"Although our Dongsheng Group is a fledgling company with a young team and a long way to go, I don't like the existence of bad apples..."
"I've finished speaking. Who's in favor and who's against?"
Zhou Dongsheng's calm words resounded in the conference room, and everyone was silent for a moment.
All the managers were shocked and kept silent, without any doubt about the weight of these words.
At the same time, no Mazda dared to stand up and say "I object".
Obviously, no one wants to be the target of this kind of authority, nor will anyone joke about their hard-earned financial prospects.
However, in this way, Li Jiana was not only promoted to assistant director and had the power of supervision, but also transformed from a popular figure around the boss into a real powerful executive.
Now her special position in the group's management has been completely established. For a while, countless people secretly envied her and hated themselves for not being a woman, otherwise...
Li Jiana did not seem to have expected that such important power would be handed over to her. She was deeply moved and her eyes couldn't help but brighten.
However, he still said: "Thank you for the trust of the chairman. I will definitely not let him down and will fulfill my supervisory duties to the end..."
Zhou Dongsheng nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Then today's meeting ends here. I hope that everyone will work together to create a better future for Dongsheng Group. By then, you will also get a satisfactory reward..."
"Yes, Chairman!"
"The meeting is adjourned!"
Zhou Dongsheng walked out of the meeting room with his hands behind his back, and Li Jiana followed closely behind him. Although the meeting was over, it was obvious that the entire Dongsheng Group would still have to work on resource integration for some time.
After all, it takes time to fully tap the synergy effect, but Zhou Dongsheng has completed his task.
The rest, of course, is left to time to ferment.
Although he doesn’t need to worry about the internal affairs of Dongsheng Group for the time being, he has to pay attention to the next actions of Dongsheng Charity Foundation.
After all, if this thing is done well, he will be the crucial protagonist. When it comes to spending money to buy fame, one must accumulate a lot over time.
Zhou Dongsheng already had a plan in mind for this, and the next step was to execute it step by step.
…
Although for Zhou Dongsheng, the establishment of Dongsheng Group is a milestone achievement, it fully integrates his large business and turns it into one, and at the same time it can fully liberate himself.
But the world will not stop because of any one thing, no matter how big the matter is. In comparison, what Zhou Dongsheng did was just a trivial matter.
Without Zhou Dongsheng's knowledge, some things that were related to him but not very relevant were also happening quietly.
It is not only Zhou Dongsheng who needs to do the addition of resource integration. For other companies that are also in the rapid development stage, when they are in the rising period, they naturally need to try to do the addition in the opposite way.
Things like subtraction should only be considered when it is absolutely necessary.
Among them, after successively gaining hundreds of millions of users and receiving hundreds of millions of US dollars in financing led by Tencent, it undoubtedly strongly announced to the outside world the existence of this intruder in the e-commerce field.
At the same time, it also used real achievements to prove that its so-called " new social e-commerce" is not nonsense, otherwise it would not have been possible to obtain investment from Tenda.
By making a comeback under the name of Pinxixi, Tengda's idea of getting involved in the e-commerce field has apparently been revived. As for what the outcome will be this time, it is obviously worth waiting and seeing.
After all, in everyone's eyes, this is another head-on confrontation between the two Internet giants, and Pinxixi is just a pawn.
Despite having accumulated hundreds of millions of users, Pinxixi's e-commerce model and its "despicable tactics" of focusing on the sinking market are obviously still subconsciously ignored.
Especially in the e-commerce field, there are already giants that serve as role models. Under preconceived notions, obviously no one really thinks how big a storm Pinxixi can create.
In fact, if it weren't for the deep-rooted influence of these stereotypes, how could Pinxixi have fought its way out of the e-commerce field surrounded by giants and created another e-commerce miracle?
Perhaps the less favored something is, the more opportunities it has. After all, when it comes to opportunities to make money, there are more people than meat. Many of them have already been divided up in invisible corners, so how could others have a chance to participate?
Of course, such obvious opportunities to "make money" will occasionally appear from the mouths of "friends" and "relatives", and how credible they are depends on one's own opinion.
After all, you are interested in other people's interest, but what others are interested in is your principal.
Pinxixi is naturally happy about this. As the business model of social e-commerce gradually matures, it also means that this new model, which is different from traditional e-commerce, has been fully verified by the market.
Therefore, Huang Zheng, who had failed in the e-commerce field three times, finally got the winning formula he had always dreamed of. The next step is naturally to fully accumulate resources on this right path.
Among them, the gaming business of Dream Technology Company, as the main body, which was originally relied on for survival and development, is like the fuel that propels a rocket. When the fuel is exhausted, it is time for it to automatically disintegrate and leave.
In addition to abandoning the unimportant gaming business, the "Pushing Good Goods" business only allows group buying of a single fruit variety. As a test field for the practice of the social e-commerce model, after the success of Pinxixi, it is naturally time for it to exit.
Of course, as the earliest launched platform, the users accumulated by Tuihaohuo itself are naturally an asset that cannot be underestimated. Therefore, merging it with Pinxixi is the best choice.
In other words, Tuihaohuo is an online fruit store, and Pinxixi is an online supermarket. Now they just moved the stalls inside Pinxixi.
After the merger of the two, not only will users' experience remain unchanged, but they will also be able to browse more cheap goods inside the supermarket. At the same time, the identical group-buying model is enough to ensure that the purchasing experience is not compromised at all.
Especially with the entry of Tenda, the support it provides in the dual fields of social and payment has undoubtedly helped Pinxixi's development.
This and other things are enough to clear away all obstacles in Pinxixi's development path. As the founder, Huang Zheng is naturally very excited.
On a leisure afternoon, these two people who have been very successful recently gathered together, sat opposite each other, made tea and chatted.
"You're very popular lately. Oh no, do I have to call you Jay Chou now?" Huang Zheng joked with a smile.
