Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 1982 Quick appointment

Halfway through the meal, the two of them actually reached an agreement. Brown Jones will be promoted to a department manager, who will be responsible for the e-commerce business of Tianyin Group's US branch, and Duan Yun will also promise him Salary increase, and sign a series of incentive contracts.

In fact, with the benefits provided by Duan Yun, it is entirely possible to find talents with better academic qualifications and work experience in the United States, but it takes a long time, and sometimes academic qualifications cannot represent a person's ability, and there is Some people's resumes look glamorous, but in fact there are more people with superficiality. Relatively speaking, talents like Brown Jones who have brains and experience, and have e-commerce entrepreneurial experience, are the most suitable for the segment requirements.

After the two of them talked that day, Duan Yun held a meeting in the branch office early the next morning, and directly appointed Brown Jones as the general manager of the newly established e-commerce business department. Duan Yun's swift and resolute behavior surprised Brown Jones.

"Brown Jones looks good, he is a very thoughtful person, but I feel that we should investigate him for a while first, so that we can understand this person more deeply, and then make a more secure decision. "After the meeting, Li Yun said to Duan Yun in the aisle of the corridor.

"You're right. According to our past experience, we should really investigate him for a period of time, and he has not been in the company for a long time. It is really hard to convince the public that he is a department manager." Duan Yun nodded, Then he said: "But to be honest, over the years, I have been employing people based on intuition, and there seems to be no major deviation. In fact, some people you feel at first glance that he is exactly what you need. Doubt, no doubt, if you have to find absolutely suitable talents to start this project, you may miss the opportunity, and we must speed up the pace of development in the United States now..."

In fact, Duan Yun also knew that the choice of Brown Jones to be in charge of the e-commerce business this time was a bit hasty and did not comply with some of the company's personnel regulations, which seemed more like a gamble.

But for Duan Yun, now is a good time to enter the market to develop Internet e-commerce, because in his previous life, Amazon had achieved sales of over 1995 million US dollars in [-], if Duan Yun hadn’t entered the game this year In this industry, when Amazon becomes bigger and stronger in the future, the cost Duan Yun will have to pay if he wants to compete with it will increase significantly, and he may not be able to succeed. Therefore, entering this industry as soon as possible is what Duan Yun urgently needs to solve. things.

Moreover, in the current United States, there are no talents in Internet e-commerce, because this industry is an emerging industry, and no one has ever done it before, and it is impossible to talk about relevant work experience, so Brown Jones was chosen as the manager of this department. It is currently the best choice.

"Okay." Li Yun nodded lightly, and then asked again: "Also, I don't quite understand the Internet e-commerce business you mentioned. Although I often used the Internet when I was in the United States, but Is it really reliable to shop through online platforms?"

Li Yun still can't fully understand the Internet e-commerce model proposed by Duan Yun. In her opinion, the Internet in the United States is the most developed in the world, and it does provide people with a lot of convenience, but she wants to build a shopping platform through the Internet. , there are too many problems to be solved, not only in terms of technology, but also in many aspects such as after-sales service, product logistics, and financial transactions. For a company that has just established a branch in the United States, it is difficult to solve these problems The difficulty is indeed very high.

"Nothing is perfect, so we need to take it step by step." Duan Yun glanced at Li Yun, and then said: "No one in business can be [-]% successful. From this point of view, doing business is gambling. What can be done is to increase the success rate. Internet e-commerce is an emerging industry. Although it has never appeared before, this model is still in line with business logic to a certain extent, so it has the possibility of success. .”

"Alright." Li Yun said.

"Another point is that if we use the traditional business model to compete with those multinational companies, we will be in a very disadvantageous position." Duan Yun pondered for a while, and then said: "Whether it is a large company in the United States, or Those foreign giants have been deeply involved in this market for several years, ten years, or even decades. As a Chinese company, it is really too difficult for us to achieve cornering overtaking... So there is Time can only find another way, so that there is such a glimmer of hope of winning, do you understand me when I say this?"

"I can understand your thoughts. I have always thought that you are a business genius, unlike me. You can only do things within the scope of my understanding." Li Yun smiled, and then said: "And take Indeed, as you said, doing business in the United States does require some creativity and courage. It is difficult for people who follow the rules to achieve great success, and it is only an investment of 1000 million US dollars. Even if it fails, it will not cause injury to our group company Bone-shattering injuries, but even so, I will do my best to complete this project with Brown Jones..."

"In the future, I will give you full authority over the affairs of the United States. There are two main tasks this year. One is to fully promote our DVD products and strive to make this product recognized by American consumers. On the other hand, you must Do a good job of coordinating the R&D center and the branch. Liang Mengsong is in charge of the other side. This is the CES exhibition, and he will also attend it. You two can have a good communication at that time. The business and R&D departments must cooperate closely. , Do a good job in product technology upgrades and after-sales service. Our early plans must not be missed. All in all, our plans for this year must be stable. There is no stain on this country." Duan Yun said seriously.

For Duan Yun, he has always followed the brand route, especially in the US market. Once there are any stains on product sales and after-sales, there will be no way to turn around in the future, so he can make less money. The point is It is necessary to increase the popularity of the Tianyin brand in the United States, and at the same time make their products recognized by American consumers.
