Chapter 2089 Bigger Goal

Sun Guanran followed Zhen Yu and went to meet the owners of the San Francisco Giants, also staring at this newly pregnant protection object.Ning Lu and Yao Yao also went to San Francisco and went shopping there.

It is said that the Greater Bay Area is not too big. You can drive around in cities of all sizes within 10 minutes by car.Taken together, the entire Greater Bay Area is about the same size as New York and Los Angeles, and San Francisco is the core city of the Greater Bay Area.

Ning Yaxian and Gu Zanli are staying with the boss in San Jose, the No. 2 city in the Greater Bay Area.

At this time, the two of them were also in the tea room, next door, in a separate room.

In fact, Boss Ma also has assistants by his side, but they really can't get together.

Boss Ma is accompanied by the "Four King Kong", namely Ali's chief financial officer, chief investment officer, and senior vice president in charge of international business. These three are all well-established group executives of Ali.The last one left is the real assistant, but he is not an ordinary person. He is one of the 18 people who started Ali's business in the early stage.

Zhou Buqi's side is different. With only two female secretaries around him, he doesn't need executives, senior assistants, etc. to make suggestions. He has to be more firm and decisive in his judgment on one matter.

Ning Yaxian and Gu Zanli are two female secretaries, and they are not familiar with the people around Boss Ma, so they really can't get together, so they opened a separate room.

The communication between the two has little to do with work. It is mainly because Ning Yaxian gives Gu Zanli some psychological counseling, and must correctly view the relationship with Boss Zhou. What should have happened last night happened, and it is indeed related to many The fairy tales of "Prince and Princess" that girls fantasize about since childhood are different, but this is already a very heartwarming result in the cold real world.

At least the big boss is not bad, and has a sense of responsibility, not the kind of scumbag who refuses to recognize people when he puts on his pants.

In terms of experience in female virtues, Secretary Ning Yaxian is obviously much better than Sun Guanran and Ning Lu, with gentle words and a soothing voice, she really looks like a caring big sister.

Gu Zanli pursed her lips and said with a light smile: "I know it all. We have discussed it in private. This is very good. I am willing to do this. I have the opportunity to accompany the boss on a business trip this time. They are all envious. Basically... Basically, everyone knows what will happen during this business trip, not only me, but also Yao Yao."

Ning Yaxian nodded slightly, and sighed, "When the secretariat was recruiting, I interviewed at least a hundred girls, and I was very touched. Girls in modern society have too superficial views on love. .Peeling shrimp, buying milk tea in the middle of the night, what are these? These are not rare things at all, but the reality is that many girls are so moved by this low-cost payment.”

Gu Zanli recalled that when she applied for the job, she seemed to have really answered such questions.

She dismissed it then.

This is also the reason why she has kept her life like a jade even after graduating from university and hasn't dated yet.

Many girls nowadays are easily moved to tears by the low price. This is not soft-hearted, but a girl's low self-worth recognition, she is only worth the price of a cup of milk tea.

Listening to Secretary Ning's words at this time, Gu Zanli was thoughtful. It seemed that the interview had already screened out many girls who were not suitable to be the secretary of the big boss.

It was so!
No wonder the girls in the secretary's office get along so well, and there is not much conflict of values ​​between them, and there is no big difference in dealing with the matter of interacting with the big boss.

Ning Yaxian said frankly: "What is a valuable choice? It is the other party's conversation, the other party's knowledge, the other party's vision, the other party's ability to control the situation, and the other party's emotional stability. Remember, emotional stability is particularly important. Many girls suffer from domestic violence, and one of the important reasons is that they would never choose a partner at all, and never value the option of emotional stability, as if sweet talk and only loving her for a lifetime is the whole of happiness.”

Gu Zanli bit her lips lightly, "Well, I understand."

Ning Yaxian smiled and said: "In the past few years, there have been two popular books in the business management industry, one is "Strategy Determines Success" and the other is "Details Determine Success or Failure". These are two contradictory statements. You know What does our boss think?"

Gu Zanli's beautiful eyes flashed, and she smiled and said: "I heard from the boss that success or failure is determined by strategy, and success or failure is determined by details."

Ning Yaxian nodded, "Yes, running a relationship between a man and a woman is just like running a company. You must first start with the overall situation and choose a correct strategic direction. Then, in this general direction, go to the details to screen and filter .”

Gu Zanli is also a very smart girl, and soon understood what she meant, "A good man must first have good conversation, rich knowledge, broad vision, strong ability to control the situation, and the ability to carry out Always stabilize your emotions. This is a strategy. First set a correct strategic line and choose a good man. Then buy milk tea, peel shrimp, ask for warmth, tenderness, and even whether you are loyal or not. These are all details. Yes, it is a measure of how good a good man is."

Ning Yaxian pursed her lips and said, "No wonder the big boss said he likes you, you are really smart!"

"Really?" Gu Zanli's eyes sparkled, she was very excited, "Did the boss say it?"

Ning Yaxian said: "I said it, so let me have a good chat with you."

Gu Zanli blushed slightly, and said in a low voice: "Is it because I look different from other girls? I am a Uyghur and come from the frontier. He has had too much contact with girls in the interior, so he needs to change." taste."

Ning Yaxian said with a strange expression: "Maybe, he has a goddaughter who is also a Uyghur, and he is usually very doting. You can get to know each other in the future, and they are all in other places."

Gu Zanli said with a smile: "The boss still has a goddaughter, okay, I will meet that little girl when I return to China, and I can help take care of it."

Obviously, she was wrong. She thought that the boss's goddaughter was seven or eight years old at most.

Ning Yaxian didn't say much, she thought of something, "By the way, do you like Wu Yanzu?"

"I like it!" Gu Zanli was a little embarrassed, "It's not that kind of liking, or... I just think he's so handsome."

Ning Yaxian smiled and said, "Isn't this normal? Sun Guanran also likes it. Let her take you to the Oracle Arena to watch the Golden State Warriors game at night."

"Is it a basketball game?"

"Well, Wu Yanzu is a fan of the Warriors, and he is a perennial VIP package. If you go at night, you can meet him and ask him to sign for you."

"But..." Gu Zanli was a little worried, not because she was afraid that Wu Yanzu would not give her autograph, but because she had just grown from a girl to a young woman, and if she went after a male star, it would make the big boss unhappy, "Is that okay? ?”

Ning Yaxian said: "What's wrong with this? Wu Yanzu was originally a Chinese. He grew up in San Francisco, and the boss would go to watch the game at night. Some things, as long as you have a sense of proportion, don't cross the line."

……

Next door, Boss Ma stared at Zhou Buqi, who was throwing the floor with his voice and style, and was in a daze.

Depend on!
this kid!
I knew he was very ambitious and not a good stubble!

Seeing him stunned, Zhou Buqi said calmly: "When dealing with the management, we can be more pure, just talking about interests is enough. Especially the management of private equity institutions, it is easier."

Boss Ma shook his head frequently, "How can it be that simple?"

Zhou Buqi said: "Why is it not simple? The short-sightedness of the management is obvious. We are not willing to have more management representatives on the board of directors of our company. Why? Isn't it because the management often ignores long-term value and only cares about short-term interests? If the management can fully control Yahoo, we can achieve greater goals more easily!"

Boss Ma stared at him, "What's the bigger goal?"

Zhou Buqi didn't answer the question, "Do you know why Yahoo's management is acting so aggressively now, actively working to drive Yang Zhiyuan away? Because it's the end of December now, and this fiscal year is coming to an end soon. Many private equity firms on Wall Street As far as the organization is concerned, this year's income is not enough, and the dividend line has not yet been reached! This is our biggest bargaining chip with the management!"

He really knows this very well, much more than Boss Ma.

Because Zhou Buqi owns two private equity funds - Pluto Capital and Neptune Capital.

Constrained by the collective sluggishness of the IT industry this year, it is difficult for these two funds to reach the dividend line of more than 20% of their annual income. If they do not get 25%-30% of profit dividends, they can only earn about 2% of management commissions. up.

Fortunately, Boss Zhou is very rich.

If you don't get dividends this year, you won't get it. The impact is not too big.

But many managers of private equity funds can't do it. Their biggest annual income is the dividends at the end of the year.Once the dividends are not received, there will only be a basic salary of hundreds of thousands of dollars left in that year.

This small amount of money is really not enough for those fund tycoons who spend money like water. They can't even afford to support a few beauties, let alone luxury cars and yachts.

Therefore, the next half a month or so is very important.

They want to get a sum of money as soon as possible, so that the profits of the funds they manage will increase, so that they can get dividends at the end of the year.

It can be seen from this that it is much easier to negotiate with people like Yang Zhiyuan than to negotiate with the management.

The weakness of the capital is more obvious. The purpose of those private equity managers is to make money, and they only need to grasp the needs of the other party and then satisfy them.

Yang Zhiyuan can't do this.

He is a rich man, and he is not short of money at all. The money he has now will never be spent in his lifetime.Yahoo is his child, and he hopes that Yahoo will get better and better. This child of Yahoo can win him face and industry status, instead of becoming a money-making tool in the hands of others.

This is very troublesome.

Although Boss Ma also said that Yang Zhiyuan's current situation is very bad, so his request can be easily satisfied by lowering it again and again.

But in Zhou Buqi's view, it is easier to meet the needs of the employer.

Boss Ma waved his hand, "Don't go around in circles, what is your big goal?"

Zhou Buqi said in a deep voice: "Yahoo holds 40% of Ali's shares, and now is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. It is Yahoo's lowest point, and it is also Ali's lowest point. Yahoo's lowest point can take advantage of his illness to kill him; Ali's Silicon Valley, The repurchase of this share can be completed with the least expenditure!"

Boss Ma took a deep breath, "All?"

Zhou Buqi was categorical, "Everyone!"
