Du Lin talked a lot with this applicant, and it must be said that this is the first talent to come to the door on his own initiative. He has strong practical business capabilities and has very unique insights into certain business methods. He is as outstanding as his resume. He graduated from a higher school of economics. He has many years of work management experience from the grassroots to the top. He has strong personal abilities and has a brilliant view on social changes and economic fluctuations.
But it's a pity that he is not what Dulin wants.
"Mr. Du Lin, can you tell me how I am not suitable for your company?" When Du Lin clearly regretted that he could not cooperate with this job applicant for the time being, he couldn't help but ask such a question, " Is there something I'm missing, or is my future plan not in line with your ideas? To be honest, I think my personal work experience and ability are definitely among the best, if not the best. Yes. Please let me know, Mr. Dühring."
Dulin gave him a cigarette and soothed his mood. "What you said is very good, very good. It makes me feel better than your resume. The things we talked about are indeed very relevant." In fact, I think if you are hired as the executive director of Cable TV, this company will become a company with huge commercial value in the next five to ten years.”
"Then why don't you want to use me?"
Du Lin smiled, "Because you are not me!"
"You can lead this company to the top of a mountain, but I can make this company fly into the sky. I need an executor, not someone who can think about me and make suggestions. This is unfair to you. , it’s not fair to me either, what do you think?”
The job seeker left very disappointed. When he left, he didn't understand why Du Lin was so confident. This was a very strange thing, as if... He couldn't describe the feeling, as if Du Lin could already see far away. the future.
In fact, he guessed right. Du Lin can really see far into the future. This is also Du Lin's secret, and it is also Du Lin's wealth. No one knows better than him where the future of cable television lies, so what he needs is an executor with a certain degree of self-thought. Self-thought is not the most important, but the executor is what matters. He doesn't need a leader with a lofty position, nor does he need a pioneer with strong independent thoughts. He needs an executor who can quietly carry out his route!
Many people are afraid that their company will hire a mediocre person, but Dulin is not afraid, because his vision can penetrate time and space to see future trends, because the future is in the palm of his hand!
This may be his biggest shortcoming, because he sees too far, so far that many people don’t know what he saw. Even if he tells it, they don’t know whether what he saw is right or wrong, or even So question him and shake your trust in him. This also makes it difficult for him to find the right people. Sometimes Dulin feels that he should probably let others have more initiative... Well, let's do this next time and appoint these outstanding talents in unimportant positions.
Frena was quickly recalled by Dulin in advance, and her studies were basically over. The two years of studying economics and management at the Royal Academy may not make her as outstanding as the job applicant with a pioneering spirit. She is an industry elite with strong personal abilities, but it is enough for her to be an executor with certain self-thought.
Frena's return heralded that the Kosma Cable TV Company would be temporarily handed over to her. When she came back, Du Lin held a reception banquet for him and introduced all his current partners to her. He could see that there seemed to be a little emotion between Frena and Nasha, but he didn't pay much attention to it. The reason why people are human is because they have love, hatred and hatred. Restricting others does not mean that things will change for the better. As long as the small conflicts between them do not affect the overall plan, Du Lin does not bother to care.
He spent almost a month away, returning west at the end of July.
At this time, the "head grabbing" activity in the west has gradually come to an end, and the biggest winner is Dulin. He and Mr. Jack's industry has nearly 400,000 farmers and workers who have participated in the three-guarantee policy. In addition to the crazy acquisition of contracts by the hometown associations during this period, the total number of contracts he has acquired has reached 1.3 million. The independent contracts participating in the three-guarantee policy in the entire West amounted to a little over four million, and he got one-third of them, making him the biggest winner.
Bellito of the Southern Commercial Bank managed to get through one million contracts, while the Reichsbank was the worst offender, with less than 800,000, and about one million contracts, some of which were in a wait-and-see state. , and some were acquired by other scattered institutions.
The "players" who entered the game late may not know the rules of this game and the benefits that the winner can get, but seeing that the two major banks and Dulin are frantically acquiring those contracts, they naturally participate in the acquisition war with speculative ideas. . If they can get benefits, they will eat them. If they can't see any profit points, they will sell them to other "players". It is said that the new central bank chief is actively contacting these "third parties", hoping to obtain more contracts from them.
Du Lin, who had just gotten off the train, heard an interesting thing before he could go back to rest. The new head of the central bank persuaded Bellito and other third parties to hold an early industry conference and form an organization similar to an industry association to self-regulate industry behavior and formulate industry standards. What's even more interesting is that they didn't notify Du Lin, and even deliberately chose to open the door when Du Lin hadn't returned yet.
If Dulin hadn't returned to the West two days earlier than planned, he might have missed this "industry conference."
At this time, in the conference room on the seventh floor of the Hotel Van Leer, a group of people were sitting together to discuss how to formulate industry standards and access systems. This meeting was initiated by the new person in charge of the central bank because of Phyllis’s previous work. After a long period of consideration, he decided to take the blame and leave the west. He will face huge losses, including losing his status as a director, being unable to interfere in the work of the central bank for the next three years, and having to sell 0.3% of his shares to other shareholders as a punishment for him.
Although the punishment was severe, it also gave Phyllis a sigh of relief. At least compared to the horror of a complete collapse, the current punishment was not painful. There is actually nothing except that the shares are a little less. Many directors are just like him now, they are inactive in name only. Except for showing up during meetings, they are invisible at other times. He has finally figured it out. He is not a qualified banker, not even a banker. He is not going to fight for that. The most correct choice is to quit quickly and let his successor have the headache.
Phyllis's decisive retreat caused great passivity to the new director Taylor. Phyllis's stupidity made the central bank at a disadvantage in this war where it clearly had more advantages. The only way he can reverse the current situation is to integrate the industry first, then acquire the contracts from speculators, and finally kick out Dulin, the biggest winner in this war. Compared to Phyllis who knows nothing, Taylor's methods are obviously more sophisticated and mature.
Once the industry integration is completed and industry standards are formulated, the first thing Du Lin, who is absent and not in the industry, will have to face is the huge threshold to enter the industry. All they have to do is bite the bullet and refuse Du Lin to enter the industry. The contracts acquired by Lin were equivalent to waste. He had no other option except selling them to members of the industry. Taylor had already discussed this matter with Bellito privately. After the integration in the industry was completed, They will submit a franchise application to the Imperial Capital.
To put it simply, it means giving up part of the benefits to the government, and then the government and their industry collectively formulate an access system that is protected by law. This has been reflected in the banking industry. Nowadays, even if a rich man holds 10 billion in capital, he must obtain permission to open a bank. Only after this access permit was signed by the Banking Commission and the Imperial Treasury did it become effective, and the rich man was able to open the bank.
If any party disagrees with the rich man opening a bank, then he cannot open a bank. If he did that, not only would he be prosecuted, but he would also face a hefty fine.
Taylor accused Phyllis of being stupid and ignorant more than once. If he had chosen to retreat earlier, Taylor would have had more time and more room for maneuver. At the same time, Taylor proposed a new internal proposal to the Board of Governors of the Imperial Bank. Those incompetent directors should just let them name themselves, and do not assign any work to them.
At this time, a group of people in the conference room were discussing the formulation of industry standards and access systems for the insurance business. As the largest Southern Commercial Bank and the Imperial Bank of China in Dulin's absence, the standards they set would definitely be more beneficial to them. For example, they are currently arguing about the funding standards. Taylor believes that as an insurance business involving large cash flows, it must ensure that a large amount of money can be mobilized anytime and anywhere. He set the number at 50 million, a figure that made many speculators despair.
The purpose of this is to filter out those speculators who have no ability and qualifications, and force them to take out the contracts in their hands, or let the two major banks swallow them up. Clear goals and qualified capital means are always effective means for capitalists to strengthen themselves.
