Rebirth in 1998 is also a kind of life

, rebirth in 1998 is also a kind of life

You must know that at this moment, Zhutou Trading has an absolute leading position in O2O business, local life service, cold chain logistics distribution, modern warehousing, and big data; while the food processing industry chain, agricultural product supply, small and medium-sized enterprises The strength of these sectors of finance is definitely ranked among the top 10 in the same field; its abundance of resources and comprehensive strength are definitely on par with some central enterprises!

而坐拥着近3000万的活跃会员、逼近2500家的门店、2.6万家餐饮合作商、1.2万家品牌合作商、7000多家合作生产制造商的铸投商贸各事业部这一年在干嘛呢？

Apart from optimizing, optimizing, and re-optimizing the business in the vertical field, there are no other proactive actions—even the pure e-commerce preparation project that was listed as a strategic focus at the beginning of the year was only based on the suggestions given by Yang Zhu. Within the specified framework, the cooperation projects of the two-tier PPP model will continue to be carried out in various places.

Logically speaking, there is nothing wrong with each department continuing to optimize their vertical business. After all, the formulation of strategies is the job of the helmsman;

But the problem is... With the current size and business depth of Zhutou Trading, this company is already a large-scale group company!

In terms of this level of enterprise scale, from the day Zhutou Trading established various business divisions, these business divisions are essentially subsidiaries of Zhutou Trading—even if it was because Yang Zhu was worried about the various business divisions at the beginning. The boss's business level has taken back some power, but as the boss of the business department, you still have to take on the responsibilities that you should consciously assume.

Among them, how to expand the existing resource advantages and seize the ecological niche of the subdivided track through various means is what these executives need to consider-with the corporate culture and decentralized management mechanism of casting investment business, this responsibility Not even middle management can get away with it!

Take the investment center directly under Wan Qingyi as an example. They have provided low-interest loans to more than 5000 small and medium-sized enterprises and successfully injected capital into more than 700 manufacturing companies. The next step is to think about how to use this industry cluster benefit. More than a dozen sub-sectors, such as snacks and deep-processed meat, have submitted applications to higher-level departments to formulate new industry standards, in order to improve their own industry niche, and by the way, create a few handy weapons.

Take Huixuanfang as an example, if before their rise, Zhutou Trading, which united with a group of merchants, successfully applied for a new industry standard for snacks, how could they still rely on those low-priced snacks to attract traffic, wouldn’t they be courting death? ?

But it is a pity that the time has passed now. Even if the current Zhutou Trading wants to apply for industry standards such as puffed snacks, it will be difficult to pass-the best-selling snack brands of Huixuanfang are there. Before there was a thunderstorm, due to various considerations, it was impossible for the higher authorities to only listen to your family.


Think about it, even Wan Qingyi's direct department has made such a major mistake of missing a good opportunity, let alone the rest of the business department?

In short, one counts as one. Among all the departments of Zhutou Commercial and Trading, except for the need of competition in the past two months, the local life service business department and the logistics business department were forced to make some moves related to seizing niches in subdivided fields. Except for this, the rest are "dabbling around" step by step there.

This is not the most embarrassing thing for her.

The so-called no harm without comparison, the most embarrassing thing for her is... her lover also has a company called Zhutou International Trade.

This company, Yang Zhu, has invested far less effort than Zhu Investment, and even for a long time, it has an attitude of "let you fend for yourself". In terms of various ecological niches, they are much better than them-although the other party's methods make her somewhat uncomfortable, but in terms of initiative alone, Zhutou Trading is indeed at a disadvantage.

………………

Seeing the unnatural expression on Wan Qingyi's face, Gong Lie smiled slightly and continued: "The third principle that the strong believe in——【The Way of Commitment】."

"I believe that with the status of Assistant Wan, there are many people who can be called strong people among the people I come into contact with on weekdays-do you basically not hear what they are complaining about?"

Wan Qingyi nodded. In the mall, "complaining" is the exclusive right of the weak. Anyone who has achieved a little bit of success will never open their mouths to say that they are bored to death, tired to death, difficult to die, and they are underappreciated. The most they can do is to send out exclamations and complaints such as "this year's situation is not good"-even if they are such complaints, they are most likely to find a chat topic that can resonate a little bit, or something else. The destination shows weakness and plays a trick of "crying children have milk".

Seeing this, Gong Lie smiled: "Assistant Wan should know more about this than me, so I won't make a fool of myself;"

"It's just that in addition to the well-known psychological endurance, I also want to emphasize that... when a real strong person wants to really do something, he never takes himself too seriously as a human being!"

"For them, if they look upright and take themselves too seriously to save face; it is undoubtedly a way of death, and it is also a manifestation of lack of commitment in their bones!"

! ? ?

Wan Qingyi looked at Gong Lie in surprise, she never thought that in this gentleman's opinion, there was such an explanation for the word "undertake".

Seeing the astonishment of this beautiful executive, Gong Lie smiled with a somewhat complicated expression: "Do you find it a bit difficult to understand? ... In fact, it took me a long time to figure out this truth. "

After finishing speaking, Gong Lie sighed: "The word [commitment] is simple to write, but it is easier said than done?"

"It's actually not difficult to not complain at the first level; after all, Chinese people want to save face. From the moment you are willing to pick up the burden, you will not take the initiative to complain if you have a little bit of responsibility;"

"However, if you want to achieve the second level, you are willing to work hard for this burden, or to make a bloody way out of nothing, or to compromise...even humiliating, but it is really too difficult!"

"You know, from the moment someone picks up the burden, what you shoulder is not only your own pursuit and ambition, but also the jobs of the people under you;"

"Whether it's for your own interests or the livelihood of the people below, you need to squeeze out every bit of your potential, and do everything you can without violating the principles... And in this, personal face and modesty are undoubtedly the most useless things."

Hearing the meaning behind Gong Lie's words, Wan Qingyi broke out in cold sweat again.

Mr. Gong's words can be understood in two layers.

The first level is the internal management attitude.

This is good, the cultural atmosphere of Zhutou Business is "no big or small", as long as it is not a serious occasion, there has never been a strict class boundary between the management and employees;

Except for a small number of technical departments, more than half of the executives of Zhutou Commerce and Trade are basically from the batch of laid-off workers at the beginning-due to the residual state-owned style of these people, all departments of Zhutou Commerce and Commerce have always attached great importance to employees. For legitimate interests, it is also very important whether the middle and grassroots managers have a minimum responsibility, so they have done a good job in this area.

The second layer is the "overclocking" initiative of middle and senior executives.

This is a bit fatal.

You know, for these managements who still retain the values ​​of state-owned enterprises...

The company encounters a major challenge, let them fight for 30 days in a row or even [-] hours a year, no problem!

When the company encounters major difficulties, it is no problem for many people to let them drop all their bodies and bend down to ask for help!

However, it is human nature to tend towards good and hate.

When they didn't realize any danger, they tossed themselves desperately, and even took advantage of their own reserve and shame to do some rainy things... Do you think it is possible for most people?

The so-called people live with a face, and a tree lives with a skin; for the vast majority of people, the reason why they are willing to put in so much effort and sweat is nothing more than to make themselves live happily and have more face... Let They pretended to be grandsons for unwarranted things. For these middle and senior executives who are used to flowers and applause, it is absolutely impossible!

Unnecessary...?

This is the crux of the problem!

Wan Qingyi couldn't help but sighed softly.

After getting along for so many years, she naturally knows that most middle and senior executives are definitely not as miserable as outsiders think, but the problem is that if these people are to actively enter the "overclocking" state, two conditions must be met at the same time.

1. He has true beliefs and pursuits in his heart, and as Mr. Gong said, he is willing to abandon his indifferent face and reserve for these things.

2. Possess enough insight, at least able to see 1~2 steps more than the average person, and have the initiative to plan ahead.

Obviously, the first point is not a big problem for many mid-level and senior executives of Zhutou Trading; but the second point is really embarrassing-in this turbulent era, the situation of every day They will all be very different. How can someone who can see one step more than others be described by a mere "elite" vocabulary?

However, she also knows that with the current size and industry status of Zhutou Trading, this seemingly excessive requirement is actually an objective demand in reality—not to mention, just take the experience of the past few months as an example. In other words, if the executives of Zhutou Trading really have enough foresight and overclocking initiative, they will be able to strangle competitors when they show signs of death early, why bother with the current situation?

Well, she knows that her lover has always believed in the simple principle of "Yes is yes, no is no", so no matter how many objective reasons these executives have, Yang Zhu will never listen to it - from this point of view , strong culture and social Darwinism have striking similarities, and it is no wonder that Mr. Gong said that he did not like some attributes of strong culture.

………………

Seeing Wan Qingyi frowning and thinking hard there, Gong Lie uncharacteristically did not interrupt, but waited until the beautiful executive came back to his senses, and then continued: "The fourth principle that the strong believe in—[ There is no way for me】."

Speaking of this, Gong Lie's expression was unprecedentedly serious: "The so-called way of selflessness is to completely abandon [self-grasping], abandon the good and evil inherent in human beings, and just like a cold machine, everything is based on profit. Gains and losses are the measure;”

"The gains and losses referred to here do not simply refer to money, but also include various considerations that will help or hinder its progress in a very long time line-this is the similarity between the culture of the strong and the people with the highest interests. , and different places; one focuses on the long-term, and the other only focuses on the immediate."

Speaking of this, Gong Lie couldn't help but sighed: "To be honest, in this era where no one can understand what tomorrow will be like, I would rather the country is full of people who only focus on the interests of the present— In contrast, the strong people who believe in the way of selflessness have too many uncertainties, and if there is a mistake in their actions, the harm to the country will be far beyond the comparison of those shallow-sighted profit-oriented people!"

Wan Qingyi was taken aback, and only then did he understand why this Mr. Gong would tell Yang Zhu the history of chaos when he met him for the first time.

Thinking of this, Wan Qingyi looked at Gong Lie with some uncertainty: "Mr. Gong, are you... worried about our Director Yang?"

Hearing this, Gong Lie nodded with a complicated expression, shook his head again, and finally sighed: "To be honest, I really don't understand your Director Yang, and I'm really not sure whether he left without a reason. My way!"

After finishing speaking, Gong Lie stared at Wan Qingyi seriously: "From the beginning, Zhutou Trading spared no effort to spread out O2O outlets, and uncharacteristically did not charge franchise fees, and instead gave each franchisee the initiative to bear the store decoration costs. , I started to pay attention to you - I sighed at the time, the boss of this company is definitely a generation of heroes, otherwise he would not give up such a large piece of fat in vain, just to obtain the best quality dealer resources; "

"Later, your company's own brand plan, southern Yunnan arabica coffee planting plan, excellent product plan, and the shocking waves caused by the joint cooperation with Cuijiu.com all proved my original guess——Your Director Yang is a ten-step Take a step, don't care about the gains and losses of a city or a pool, but you are an extremely daring hero!"

"You know, in my opinion, your company's award-winning coffee chain project and that large-scale membership charity event are nothing more than a weight in the hands of you, Director Yang— —In fact, I guess that in the eyes of many leaders, your Director Yang is a dangerous person who needs to deal with it with [-] points!"

"I originally thought that after obtaining such a huge bundle of social resources, the first thing that a hero like you, Mr. Yang, needs to do is to exchange value, and use the strings of heavy or light weights in his hands code, and gradually turn it into policy resources with long-term value or other scarce resources;”

"But after your company started giving lectures, I gradually realized that he didn't do that. Instead, he deliberately avoided all kinds of causes and effects."

"In addition, I learned later that in response to the country's plan to support Shuangqing, your director Yang spent tens of billions of money there... From that moment on, I really can't understand you guys. Director Yang!"

It seems that the confusion on Gong Lie's face aroused Wan Qingyi's sense of pride, and the school girl said with some pride: "Our Director Yang is naturally not following the rational and cold way of selflessness... He naturally has his own persistence, There is also a magnificent blueprint in the chest!"

Seeing the proud expression on Wan Qingyi's face, for some reason, Gong Lie, who sensed something, felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. He shook his head lightly to get some distracting thoughts out of his mind, and then said coldly: "This is not necessarily the case. The so-called Duke Zhou's matter is not far away, and we cannot learn from it before the coffin is closed... From a negative point of view, it may be that what you Director Yang intends to do is far greater than what we thought."

Wan Qingyi naturally knew that the "conspiracy" that Gong Lie said was definitely not something in the direction of positive energy. She was a little unexpected, but she couldn't help but worry... Judging from the things that her lover did in the beautiful country However, Mr. Gong's worries may not be unreasonable.

Taking Wan Qingyi's fleeting anger into his eyes, Gong Lie smiled self-deprecatingly: "You also know the last principle that the strong believe in, which is [Learning without being similar]—that is, you Yang Dongliu The sentence I gave you, don’t go when you see the road, see the cause and effect.”

"As for the reason, Assistant Wan must know better than me... After all, the phrase [He who learns from me lives, and whoever resembles me dies] is already a rotten word."

Taking a sip of tea, Gong Lie concluded: "Personal preferences and value conflicts aside... In my opinion, your long-sighted Director Yang must have foreseen some important event that even he was not sure about. So I began to select [partners];”

"The big test set for you is based on this consideration - if you can submit answers that satisfy him, he will naturally let you return to the team, and then act as his right-hand man in that major incident to handle it independently He needs you to deal with;"

"But if you don't give him an answer that satisfies him..."

Gong Lie showed a slight schadenfreude smile on his face: "I'm sorry, for the real strong, a group of pig teammates who can't walk steadily is far more terrifying than 1 powerful enemies-when the time comes, you, Mr. Yang I will definitely let you fend for yourself, and then find someone else to be your partner in fighting side by side!"

Although she had vaguely guessed some of her lover's true thoughts before, after hearing Mr. Gong's dissecting one by one, Wan Qingyi couldn't help turning pale after taking her seat.

Cast investment business is the painstaking effort of Yang Zhu for four years!

Is it because my lover has become so heartless?

Or, are people like himself really holding him back...

………………

Looking at the beautiful woman with such outstanding appearance and temperament that even a person with such a heart can't ignore her, Gong Lie couldn't help but feel a little soft-hearted.

Subconsciously, he was trying to comfort Wan Qingyi with a few words, when Gong Lie suddenly realized that something was wrong with his mentality, his face changed drastically, and he jumped up as if bitten by a poisonous snake, and then, under Wan Qingyi's surprised eyes, , picked up the briefcase, and rushed out the door in a panic...
