Army Ant Company started the explosive buying mode. Because the early development was too fast, many sections of the company were blank.
With Chen Mo's permission, Zhao Min directly used money to fill these gaps. Finally, an investment and mergers and acquisitions department was established and senior consultants were hired to evaluate the value of the companies to be merged and acquired.
Small car manufacturers, advertising companies, software development companies, parts production factories, sensor production companies... Companies and factories are being brought under the banner of Army Ant Company at an extremely fast speed, almost every five days on average.
People in the market who are paying attention to the movements of Army Ant Company have a blank look on their faces. Army Ant's acquisition is too complex and involves too many areas, making it confusing.
On the Internet, every once in a while, news will spread about which company's factory has been acquired by Army Ant Company, and many people have become numb.
Some people describe Army Ant Company as like a fat tycoon who throws money everywhere, which is a complete waste and has no understanding of the company's development.
But they didn't know that the Army Ant Company acquired these small businesses and factories mainly for experimental research and development. The company's industrial park is still under construction, and some places must be provided for their research and development experiments, as well as to expand the company's size.
In addition, Army Ant Company has already deployed in major mega-cities in China. Cooperate with some universities, invest in the research of some technical teams, and attract talents.
What Army Ant Company lacks is time and talent.
These problems can be solved with money and are not problems. Zhao Min's idea is very simple, use money in exchange for development time.
The company's current revenue businesses include smart assistants, Butterfly Eye mobile phones and Ant Office, as well as the advertising companies it acquired, using the smart assistant and Butterfly Eye platforms to earn advertising fees. In addition, it is the patent licensing fee for waterproof interfaces.
Except for the transfer of some capable talents to the head office of the acquired companies and factories, the rest maintain their original business structure and are partially managed independently.
Even if these factories cannot make money for the time being, at least the company will not have to lose money to maintain the development of these factories. After more than a month of crazy expansion, the company has entered a stable track, and development problems have come to an end for the time being.
The prototype of the company is complete and has the potential to challenge higher points.
"Sister Zhao, are you looking for me?" Xiaoyu walked into Zhao Min's office and said. At this time, Xiaoyu looked a little tired and not as energetic as when he first joined the company.
"You inform the advertising agency and ask them to come up with a promotion plan for the second butterfly eye phone as quickly as possible." Zhao Min said.
The second butterfly-eye mobile phone has been designed by Chen Mojiao and is already being prepared for production. It was interrupted once by the smart assistant in the middle, and then again because of the smear incident.
Now that the design and planning of the company's headquarters has been completed and it has entered the construction stage, she has asked people to follow up on the progress of the project.
The company's expansion has also been completed. The company doesn't have much to do now. After this period of preparation, the time has come to release the second mobile phone.
"Oh, okay." Xiaoyu nodded.
"Also, for this press conference, you go to the Propaganda Department and be responsible for the preparations. During this period of time, you have followed me and you have learned everything you need to learn. Now you have to start accumulating experience and discover deficiencies in practice." Zhao Min said.
"Okay." Xiaoyu nodded.
As soon as she entered the company, Chen Mo asked Zhao Min to take her with her to familiarize herself with the company's operations and various tasks. She now knows what to do about the company's major issues. But there is no practice. Now Zhao Min is giving her a platform to practice.
"Xiao Yu, let me teach you the last thing. As a manager, you have to know how to employ people. You don't need to do many things yourself, just like your boyfriend orders me." Zhao Min said.
"He ordered you?" Xiaoyu asked strangely.
After following Zhao Min for so long, she has never seen Chen Mo ask Zhao Min to do anything. Instead, Zhao Min asked her girlfriend to restrain Chen Mo from causing trouble.
"Don't you understand? The top management decides the general direction, and leaves the rest to the employees below. It's his business to decide how to solve it. This is about employing people and testing the ability of employees, and you only need to make the final decision. Decision It's your job to use his method or not.
If his method is wrong and you still decide to use it, this is your decision-making error, and this will test the vision of the senior management. You are now at the top, so don’t use low-level ideas to define high-level work. You don’t have to do many things yourself. Employing people and grasping the company's strategic direction are what senior executives should do. "Zhao Min said.
"I understand a little bit," Xiao Yu said, seeming to understand.
"I have never touched a mobile phone production machine. My daily work is to read documents, sign documents, and mobilize personnel. The company can still develop so well. Do you know why?" Zhao Min said.
"I seem to understand. The content plan of this document does not conform to the general direction in your mind. Just deny it and let the people below start over." Xiaoyu said.
"By the way, it's like building a high-speed railway. The top said to build a road from the capital to the East China Sea. This was a grand strategy, but then it was gone. The survey route, budget and construction matters were ignored by the top and left to the people below.
If the following design and construction plans meet the requirements, the design is approved. Once the designed route is not in the general direction from the capital to the East China Sea, the superiors will reject it and let the people below to think of new methods until they are consistent with the superior strategy. "
Zhao Min patiently taught Xiao Yu.
"Chen Mo is the person who talks about grand strategy. He is the legendary person who can stand up and talk without pain. I am the person responsible for seeing whether this road is in line with his grand strategy. The other employees of the company are the basic construction workers below. This is called employing people and people. manage.
A rich man doesn't care about anything and can make money just by talking, because he only needs to talk about the right direction to make money, and the people below can help him realize it, just like Dad Ma. "
"understood."
When Xiaoyu heard about Father Ma, he immediately smiled like a flower. He didn't expect Zhao Min to be so humorous.
"Just understand, put aside your worries, and do it boldly without fear of making mistakes. Don't have worries just because you are the chairman's girlfriend. In your current position, even if you make mistakes, the loss will not be big, and it can give you experience . I won’t blame you, and he is even less willing to blame you. With such a good platform, you have an advantage over others."
Xiaoyu has been working under her for so long, and she is also aware of some of Xiaoyu's concerns.
The entire company knows that she is the chairman's girlfriend, so she can easily be labeled as someone who relies on connections to get to the top.
This has also become an invisible burden for her.
Because she is the chairman's girlfriend, she cannot make mistakes in many things and must do better. Once she makes a mistake, the people below her will definitely label her as a person who relies on her connections to get the upper hand.
Although I don’t say it openly, I definitely think so in private.
Therefore, Xiaoyu has been with her for so long, and he will do everything himself, do his best, and is unwilling to make any mistakes.
The title of the chairman's girlfriend gave her a lot of pressure, but Xiaoyu didn't show it at ordinary times and just endured it by herself. She was a girl who was soft on the outside but strong on the inside.
"good."
Xiaoyu nodded, and when Zhao Min said this, she suddenly became enlightened. Even if she is Chen Mo's girlfriend, she is still her, the unique Xiao Yu.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yu seemed to relax a lot, regained his energy on his face, and became much more confident.
"You go and inform about the second generation butterfly eyes, the press conference is left to you." Zhao Min said.
"Thank you, Sister Zhao." Xiaoyu thanked Zhao Min with a smile, then turned and left the office.
Sorry for the late update. There are two more updates today. . .
