When Li Mu put out this theory, Ding Zhenglin was instantly convinced and completely convinced.
Ding Zhenglin has never considered a problem from the perspective Li Mu said, and Li Mu's theory really made him realize the huge gap. Not only did he not look at the problem deeply enough, but the level of thinking about the problem was also several levels behind. Listen. After Li Mu said this, he was shocked and enlightened. Li Mu used two metaphors to subvert his long-standing self-positioning and his long-term professional pursuits.
Ding Zhenglin didn't speak for a while, but Li Mu suddenly became full of information. It seemed that Ding Zhenglin and Chen Tong were fundamentally different. Although Ding Zhenglin was also very determined, he was not stubborn.
For Li Mu, Ding Zhenglin's strategic significance is far greater than that of Chen Tong. Chen Tong is a master of content, but only in terms of content. Ding Zhenglin's strength in financial investment operations is impeccable. Give him a little chance to grow and then guide him appropriately. He will definitely be able to become a fierce general on the battlefield, so Li Mu is determined to win him.
Ding Zhenglin was indeed unambiguous. When he realized that the beliefs he had always adhered to were completely shattered by Li Mu's more advanced thinking mode, he was not only shocked, but also quickly changed his views in his mind, and then made new decisions. Decide.
Although Sequoia is awesome, Ding Zhenglin no longer wants to do this kind of pure and independent investment behavior. He is particularly yearning for the new model described by Li Mu and can't wait to start working towards this goal.
So, Ding Zhenglin raised his head after five minutes of silence and said firmly: "Mr. Li, I am willing to join Makino Technology!"
Crisp and neat.
Li Mu raised his eyebrows, smiled and stretched out his hand: "Welcome to join!"
Ding Zhenglin also stretched out his hand, shook it tightly with Li Mu, and asked, "When will I report for duty?"
"The sooner the better."
"Okay! I'll go back and write my resignation report tonight!"
Ding Zhenglin, who was completely convinced by Li Mu, was very straightforward. At this moment, he had already made the decision to join without even communicating with Li Mu about the specific benefits.
Li Mu said to Lin Qingya: "Qingya, please exchange contact information with Zheng Lin and maintain communication. When the time comes, you will personally handle the matter of Zheng Lin's employment."
Li Mu directly changed the title to Ding Zhenglin. Lin Qingya smiled slightly, immediately took out the business card from her bag, handed it to Ding Zhenglin, and said: "Contact me anytime after completing the resignation procedures."
Ding Zhenglin agreed, took Lin Qingya's business card, and gave her his own.
Li Mu clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Now that we're done talking about work, let's order food for dinner!"
Makino Technology does not yet have an investment department. The director of the investment department that Li Mu promised to Ding Zhenglin is just a bare-bones person at the moment. He needs to build his own team after he takes up the post. However, Li Mu has no doubts about his ability. He, like Liu Edong, They are all people who have proven their strength. Li Mu even thought in a wicked way that he might as well set Ding Zhenglin's first task when joining Makino Technology as the acquisition of Internet Express. Didn't Ding Zhenglin say that Hou Yantang is difficult to do? If he didn't get it done when he was at Sequoia, he should try to get it done through his identity as Makino Technology.
Internet Express means more than value to Li Mu. YY is the core product of Makino Technology. The download tool is a kind of halo blessing for YY. If it is really taken in, there will be another product group commonly used by YY users.
After careful consideration, Li Mu felt that this idea was very feasible. After making up his mind, he looked at Ding Zhenglin with a hint of teasing in his eyes. However, Ding Zhenglin was far less experienced than Li Mu and could not even notice that Li Mu was now " "Scheming" yourself.
After the meal, Ding Zhenglin, who was still immersed in shock and excitement, said goodbye to Li Mu and Lin Qingya at the door of the hotel, and then drove away in his Buick New Century. After he left, Lin Qingya couldn't help laughing. Said: "Mr. Li, your ability to deceive people is really admirable..."
Li Mu smiled and said, "Are you praising me or scolding me?"
Lin Qingya smiled and said, "Of course I'm complimenting you."
"As long as you're complimenting me." Li Mu blinked and said with a smile: "If you are willing to use the word 'you' in the company, I respect your professional habits so I don't object, but forget it outside, it's awkward."
Lin Qingya had just seen how straightforward the two men were, and felt that she had to be more decisive, so she nodded hurriedly: "Okay, then I won't be polite to you outside."
Li Mu nodded: "Where are you going? I'll see you off."
Lin Qingya said: "The car is at the company, but it's not worth going back to pick it up. Why don't you just take me home? We live close to each other anyway."
Li Mu smiled slightly and did not say that he no longer lived in Yucheng Garden. The two got into the car and Li Mu drove in the direction of the National People's Congress. Lin Qingya, who was in the passenger seat, suddenly asked him: "Mr. Li, your Your view on love isn’t really what you told Ding Zhenglin, is it?”
Li Mu asked curiously: "What kind?"
Lin Qingya smiled and said: "It's like chasing many beautiful girls and then fusing them together..."
Li Mu couldn't help but laugh: "I'm joking, but in fact most men think so, but few can actually realize it."
Lin Qingya covered her mouth and smiled: "Why do I think you have a high chance of success?"
Li Mu couldn't help laughing and said, "Really? Then I'll lend you some good advice."
Lin Qingya also laughed out loud, but her pretty face turned slightly red involuntarily.
In order to prevent Li Mu from seeing her discomfort, Lin Qingya deliberately said: "By the way, I want to organize a team building in July. Things are not too busy at Makino Technology in July, so I plan to split up the company's people." Do you think it’s okay to divide them into two groups and take them out to play for two or three days respectively?”
Li Mu nodded: "Yes, team building is a good thing, but you have to control the degree. It doesn't matter where you go or how much you spend. What's important is that you can't just go to team building. You want everyone to have fun, eat well, and live well. But You can’t just play around, you have to take both of these things into consideration and coordinate them well, and the time shouldn’t be too long, and it can’t be too short either.”
Lin Qingya said: "This is how I planned it. The team building time will be about three days. This time the location will be Bashang Grassland, which is not far from Yanjing. Moreover, the grass there is green in July and the scenery is good. You can also ride horses, and the roasted whole sheep on the grassland is also very famous. Team building is not popular in our domestic companies, but foreign companies still attach great importance to team building. I asked about it and found that there is a team building company established by Americans in Yanjing. There are professional coaches who are responsible for leading team building, and several students who work in foreign companies speak highly of them."
"That's good." Li Mu said in agreement: "The coach for team building is very important. You must choose the right person, and the itinerary and process must be determined. It must be reasonable and humane enough. You can handle these details. It’s time to ask the staff in the human resources department to follow up.”
Lin Qingya nodded and added: "If we organize a team building, my plan is to charter a tour bus fleet. We will leave on Friday morning and come back on Sunday. Do you have time? Do you want to participate together?"
Li Mu smiled and said: "Okay, I will definitely participate when the time comes. By the way, don't set the time from Friday to Sunday, set it from Thursday to Saturday. Leave a day for everyone to rest. In the future, team building matters will be more important." Make it regular, but not too frequent, once every three months. In addition, our employees have worked very hard this year, and our business is progressing very well. We will organize a publicly funded trip in the second half of the year."
"Tour at public expense?" Lin Qingya said slightly surprised: "With so many of us, the cost of traveling at public expense is not low."
Li Mu smiled and said: "The cost must not be low. If it is low, it is better not to do it. Don't fool everyone and waste everyone's feelings with a small tourist attraction around Yanjing. If you want to go, go to a farther and well-known place, and it must be It’s a direct flight, so everyone has to have a good time, so you have to be willing to spend money.”
Lin Qingya smiled and said: "Since you said so, I definitely have no objection. Otherwise, I will ask the personnel department to investigate a few tourist attractions that are more suitable for autumn, and then let the technology be developed in our Makino Technology intranet. One vote, the minority obeys the majority.”
Li Mu praised: "This is a good idea. The intranet can greatly enhance employees' sense of belonging to the company. We must make full use of it and say hello to the technical department. In the future, we must open a personal homepage for each employee on the intranet. , every employee must upload their own photos and simple information, and the function of commenting and leaving messages should be opened. It is best to develop a custom tag function so that everyone can often find a sense of team belonging on the intranet."
"Okay, I'll write a requirement to the technical side when I get back."
…
Early the next morning, China Investment Banking was in a state of shock.
Because they heard that the people from Sequoia finally got Li Mu's favor yesterday and went to meet Li Mu. Everyone was eagerly waiting for Li Mu to turn over the sign, but they didn't expect that Sequoia had been turned over quietly.
If Makino Technology had feedback from multiple companies and then made an appointment to meet with Sequoia first, it would be easier to accept. After all, there is a first-come, first-served basis for appointments. If they meet with Sequoia first, they may not really want to cooperate with Sequoia.
But Li Mu only contacted Sequoia and only met people from Sequoia, so this matter was a bit tricky. Maybe Li Mu was attracted by Sequoia's capital relationship in the United States, and wanted to take Sequoia's money, and then Leveraging Sequoia's capital relationship to list in the United States, if this is the case, other venture capital companies and investors can withdraw their cash and rest. The big cake of Makino Technology basically has little to do with them, because Sequoia is so big. Due to their size, it is too easy to acquire 15-20% of the shares of Makino Technology. They will not find other people to follow the investment. Only when they are not strong enough or have insufficient control, they will find a follower to advance and retreat together.
However, this pessimistic news only circulated in the investment banking circle for one morning. At noon, another version of the news came out, shocking the entire investment banking circle.
The contact person who went to talk to Makino Technology on behalf of Sequoia yesterday officially submitted his resignation to Sequoia this morning.
This is so damn interesting. Although everyone doesn’t know why he resigned, at least one thing is certain: he definitely did not negotiate the financing of Makino Technology. If the negotiation was successful, he would resign immediately. This person’s My brain must have been run over by a train.
Since Sequoia failed, the game can continue, and after this biggest competitor was declared GameOver, everyone's situation became a little more optimistic.
As a result, more people from the investment banking circle requested to meet with Li Mu...
The third update is here, asking for monthly votes at the top of my lungs! Thanks to all friends who voted and rewarded, we will continue with three updates tomorrow!
