The Wealth Empire Crossing the Hong Kong

Chapter 453 Li Jianhui's Question
In meeting room 205 of Wheelock Building, the executives of Jingyi Electric Group and Hongyu Apparel Group sitting in their seats were full of anxiety. Li Jianhui suddenly only called the executives of these two groups for a meeting, which made them feel a little overwhelmed.

Time ticked by every minute, and the silence in the conference room made people feel flustered, but at this moment, no one made a sound, and they were all waiting for Li Jianhui's arrival.

As time came to ten o'clock, Li Jianhui's figure also appeared in the conference room, followed by Chen Yulian, Huang Guangxing, Liu Shunqin, Tian Haichuan, Iwatani Toru, and Tang Jianming.

The lineup for this meeting is quite large for the top management of the two major groups. In addition to Li Jianhui, the big boss, there are also four executives, Chen Yulian, Huang Guangxing, Liu Shunqin, and Tian Haichuan. Toru Iwatani, president of Huihong Group, and Tang Jianming, president of Watsons, its second largest retail company.

Especially Tang Jianming, in addition to being the president of Watsons, is also the executive vice president of E-buy Group. Since Li Qungang is currently stationed in Vancouver to coordinate the expansion of Xinjian's retail industry in the Canadian market, Tang Jianming is currently in charge of the headquarters of E-buy group. .

In the past two months, the e-buy chain and the IKEA convenience store e-shopping flow have been listed one after another. The market value of the entire e-buy group has also been relatively clearly calculated. The total market value of the e-buy group, which holds 35% of the shares of the five major listed companies, is about 500 billion Hong Kong dollars. .

Although this market value is lower than Lane Crawford's 632 billion, it is also one of the top groups in Xiangjiang.

It's a pity that such a group won't exist for long. At that time, the shares held by Tesco Group will be transferred to Wheelock Holdings. Wheelock Holdings will directly govern Lane Crawford and other five major listed companies, saving management costs.

Li Jianhui didn't care about the dignified expressions of the top executives of the two major groups, and went directly to the main topic of the meeting.

"The purpose of holding this meeting today is mainly because some of our high-level thinking has already had some problems, and we don't think about how to do a good job of our main products to create greater value for the group.

Instead, I wanted to take a shortcut, and I wanted to get into that industry when I saw which industry was making money, and ignored some of my words at the beginning of the year.

What's the matter, the platform that the group provides you with is too small for your development, and you can't realize your ambitions.

When you are thinking of entering other industries, let me ask you whether your main products have reached the top in the world.

May I ask whether our Hongyu Clothing has overwhelmed Adidas, Nike, Converse, Reebok and other sports brand giants.

I’m not saying that Jingyi Appliances is overpowering. May I ask whether your high-end products are comparable to similar products from Hitachi, Mitsubishi, Sanyo, Sony, Panasonic, and Toshiba. "

After Li Jianhui's voice fell, everyone in the venue fell into silence, and the top executives of the two major groups bowed their heads guilty.

As Li Jianhui's wife and assistant, Chen Yulian did not want the situation to be awkward, lest Li Jianhui continue to get angry with these high-level officials and break the silence of the meeting room.

"I also know that you are also trying to earn more profits for the group. The industries you think of are indeed making money, but you must distinguish between the primary and secondary in terms of development direction. The main task of your two major groups is to make the current main business bigger and stronger. .

If all of our industries were to enter the real estate industry to make quick money, then what would be the point of establishing so many companies in the first place? We might as well run Wheelock Land, Hutchison Land and Xinjian Real Estate.

And if you have ideas, you can directly report to Jianhui in the name of individuals or groups, instead of linking up with brothers and companies or even allies under the Donghua Association. If you say it lightly, you are going to jointly speak out, and if you are serious, you are going to force the palace. .

Of course, today's meeting is not to blame you for anything, but to hope that you can actively change your thinking and focus on your main business instead of thinking about making quick money in other industries every day. "

The executives of the two major groups immediately stated that they had absolutely no intention of forcing the palace, and at the same time promised to focus on the main business of the group in the future, so that the group's products will become the best in the industry.

Naturally, Li Jianhui did not want to hinder the enthusiasm of these high-level executives, and expressed his willingness to see these high-level leaders put forward opinions that are beneficial to the development of the group and the entire Xinjian Department. Those who make outstanding contributions to the development of the group and the Xinjian Department will receive funds and job promotions aspects of rewards.

Toru Iwatani and Tang Jianming were not at peace in their hearts. Although Li Jianhui was mainly targeting the senior management of Jingyi Electric Appliance and Hongyu Clothing Group this time, they knew very well that Li Jianhui specially asked them to attend this meeting. is beating them.

Toru Iwatani is better. At present, Huihong Group is really the number one in game development. At present, whether it is the Atari of the United States, or Japan's Nintendo, Sega, etc., it cannot be compared with Huihong Group.

Tang Jianming's pressure is much greater. E-buy Group is currently only three-pointed with Carrefour and Wal-Mart in the retail department store market.

In the entire retail market, there are also giants such as Sears and Kmart, Metro in West Germany, Seibu Supermarket in Japan, Ito Yokado, and Lotte in South Korea.

As the CEO of the Xinjian Department, Huang Guangxing also felt uncomfortable. Because Li Jianhui had been in Xiangjiang for a long time, companies like Xiangjiang basically went to Li Jianhui directly for matters.

He said that he was the first person under Li Jianhui in the Xinjian family, and he mainly managed things under Wheelock Holdings, and his power was far less than that of Zhou Pengfei, Wei Li, Li Zaiwei and others.

Given a choice, he would rather switch with Liu Xiaoyan to preside over the affairs of the Xinjian Department in Central and Eastern Europe than stay in Xiangjiang with the title of CEO.

These groups usually look for Li Jianhui when they have problems. If something goes wrong, he, as the CEO, has to bear the responsibility.

And don't look at him as the president of Wheelock Holdings Group. The main industries under its umbrella, Wheelock Land and E-Shopping Group, are independently developed. The development direction is set by Li Jianhui, and the top management is also appointed by Li Jianhui. He can't intervene in operation and management at all. .

Now he is also able to manage the small industries under Wheelock Holdings that have not gone out independently, such as Wheelock Cinemas, Wheelock Investment, etc.

He would also be happy if Wheelock Holdings could own banks, securities and other companies like Xinjian Holdings, but this aspect is restricted, making it very difficult for Wheelock Holdings to develop, and its market value depends entirely on what it holds Shares decide that they can't take the initiative at all.

Although it won't take long, the five listed companies of Lane Crawford, Watsons, IKEA Convenience Store, E-Go Appliance Chain, and E-Go Logistics will be directly controlled by Wheelock.

But Huang Guangxing is very clear that these five companies will still operate independently, and Wheelock Holdings is only equivalent to the role of an investor.

In fact, he understands that as the CEO, he really has the right to wait until after Li Jianhui retires.

It's just that Li Jianhui is younger than him, and he probably won't be able to enjoy the rights of CEO in his life.
