I was born again with 100 million

Chapter 518 All arranged!
After discussing the next step of the company's plan, everyone agreed to hold a group annual meeting in another week, that is, before the holiday, and then end the meeting.

After the meeting was combined, everyone left separately, and Yang Guanbin followed Lin Xiao to the office.

While entering the door, Yang Guanbin said, "Mr. Lin, if the retail experience store is fully rolled out, I think there will be more staff in the marketing department."

Lin Xiao looked up at Yang Guanbin, and said with some surprise: "Senior Brother Yang, you can just decide this directly. If there are not enough people, then recruit more."

"My idea is to manage the retail experience store separately." Yang Guanbin continued.

After hearing this, Lin Xiao began to think about Yang Guanbin's words.

"You mean that on the basis of being responsible for provinces and cities in the past, a group from the marketing department is specially assigned to be in charge of retail experience stores?"

Yang Guanbin nodded and said: "The business model of the retail experience store is different from the sales agent we usually find. There were few stores in the past, and each store manager had a relatively large autonomy. It doesn't matter."

"But once there are more stores, it is impossible to give all the store managers such a large amount of autonomy. Someone still needs to be responsible for the management."

After Lin Xiao listened, he basically agreed with Yang Guanbin's words in his heart. At this time, he also thought about it, and said to Yang Guanbin:
"So when you say staff enrichment, do you mean the enrichment of management personnel?"

"Yes." Yang Guanbin replied, "To manage the retail experience store well, one needs to be proficient in this area of ​​business. I have an idea to promote one of the several retail experience store managers to take charge."

After hearing this, Lin Xiao smiled and said to Yang Guanbin: "You fell in love with the two store managers of Yanjing and Mingzhu Experience Store, but you didn't know which one to choose, so you came to me with a problem? "

There is another point that Lin Xiao didn't explain clearly, that is, he already guessed that Yang Guanbin was not sure which of the two shop managers he valued more, so he couldn't open his mouth.

Lin Xiao carefully thought about it. In fact, Wei Xiaofei from the Yanjing retail experience store and He Qian from the Mingzhu retail experience store are both good.

These two store managers have contacted each other several times, both in terms of sales ability and management ability, and they also came to the company at the same time, with the same qualifications and experience.

After thinking about it in this way, Lin Xiao found that it was really not a good choice. He believed that no matter which of the two people was promoted, they should be qualified for this position.

However, it is impossible to promote both of them to the marketing department at once, and the marketing department can't afford so many positions.

As for which of them to put in another department, it's a bit wasteful.

"Boss Lin, isn't it hard to choose?" Yang Guanbin asked at this time.

"Actually, I thought about it for a while before, and I felt that either of the two candidates is fine, but it's not easy to make a decision like this. It would be great if there are positions that require such a person to take the burden."

Lin Xiao's heart moved, and he replied with a smile: "It really is!"

Facing Yang Guanbin's surprised gaze, Lin Xiao said: "I just remembered that a few days ago I was still thinking about where to find a trustworthy person who understands the market."

"After my Guoguang Industrial acquired Wanjia Chain, I have been looking for someone to be the vice president of Guoguang Wanjia to help me keep an eye on it, but I haven't found a suitable talent."

"If one of the two of them is asked to go, they should be willing."

"Of course I would be willing." Yang Guanbin said with a smile, "That's good, it will be resolved at once."

"How to arrange the specific positions of the two of you is up to you, Mr. Lin, to decide."

Lin Xiao nodded. In fact, both positions are very good.

Although Guoguang Wanjia is only a subsidiary of Guoguang Industrial, but the size of Guoguang Wanjia is there, and being a vice president there can be regarded as stepping into the top management of the company.

Moreover, it was Lin Xiao who personally arranged it. The weight of this position and the position in Lin Xiao's heart are different.

Of course, it is also very good to be the director of the marketing department of Eternal Technology. He is responsible for the retail experience store business, which is the most important sales business of Eternal Technology.

Lin Xiao and Yang Guanbin were all staring at this area before.

Moreover, although the position of supervisor is not as vice president, the scale of Eternal Science and Technology is there after all, and the size is incomparable to that of Guoguang Wanjia.

After thinking for a while, Lin Xiao said: "Wei Xiaofei seems to be a native of Yanjing, why not let her work in Eternal Science and Technology? The best thing to do is to seek the opinions of the two of you when the time comes."

"Okay." Yang Guanbin responded directly. Guoguang Industry itself and he belonged to two systems, so naturally he would not have other opinions.

At this time, Lin Xiao turned to Yang Guanbin again: "Senior brother Yang, according to the current arrangement, we need to add a lot of people, and now we need to start planning."

"Don't worry, Mr. Lin. I have already considered this point. Last year's batch of graduates were recruited and arranged to practice in different positions. This year, they should be able to play a role in succession."

"At the same time, I will also organize various departments to quickly come up with the personnel recruitment plan, take advantage of the year before, to send out the recruitment announcement, and recruit some experienced people."

Speaking of this, Yang Guanbin smiled, "The reputation of our Eternal Group has been fully developed now, and it is relatively easy to recruit people."

Lin Xiao also smiled slightly after hearing this, which is true. In China, because of his frequent appearances last year and becoming a hot topic of public opinion, the Eternal Group also followed suit, and his reputation has greatly increased. This is indeed very good for attracting people.

In foreign countries, although the Eternal Group does not have such a reputation, it coincides with the Nasdaq bubble, a large number of Internet companies have closed down, and many technology companies have laid off employees one after another. It is relatively easy to recruit people.

Moreover, relatively speaking, the cost of human resources is also lower.

Take Qiao Lei’s previous recruitment of engineers in Silicon Valley. If it weren’t for the Nasdaq bubble in the past 2000, not only would it be very difficult to gather a research and development team of hundreds of people, even if it could be gathered, the cost of recruiting people would be at least 50%. Increase by [-]%.

Thinking that not only will the situation in the United States not improve this year, but the influence will continue to increase, Lin Xiao said to Yang Guanbin:
"Some talents from overseas, especially in the United States, whether they are engineers, management, finance, etc., can rely on headhunting companies to find more."

"Although I have always called for more self-reliance, some talents who have been trained overseas do have outstanding vision and abilities, and we have the conditions to introduce them."

After finishing speaking, Lin Xiao quickly added: "But Senior Brother Yang also needs to remind you to pay more attention. It doesn't mean that returnees are necessarily good. Some people take their parents' money and go out to hang out, and then find a company to brush up their resumes. The company firmly rejects people who can talk on paper."

"For the introduction of overseas talents, what we pursue is top-level talents who can stand alone."

Yang Guanbin nodded and said with a smile: "That's right, Mr. Lin, I know this in my heart. After all, I have also stayed in the country of America for such a long time, and I know a little about the various aspects of it."

Lin Xiao was relieved when he heard Yang Guanbin say this.

He thought it would be nice to take advantage of this opportunity to bring back some talents, but at the beginning of the 21st century, there was still some blind pursuit of returnees in China, and he didn't want to have such an atmosphere in the company.

For the next half a day, Lin Xiao began to read the company's various reports in detail. Although Yang Guanbin and the others had already read them at the meeting just now, they were not so careful after all.

Moreover, through these reports, Lin Xiao could also see many things that were not reflected in the reports.

For example, in the production process of USB flash drives, production costs, especially raw material costs, have dropped significantly.

When Lin Xiao saw this data, he naturally tried to analyze the reasons behind it.

Among them, the most important thing is that the price of flash memory is decreasing. When the USB flash drive was first launched, the mainstream flash memory capacity was 16M, but last year the mainstream was 32M.

According to Moore's Law, the performance of microprocessors doubles every 18 months, while the price drops by half. This rule is also basically applicable to flash memory.

Probably in the second half of this year, 64M flash memory chips should become the mainstream.

As Lin Xiao thought about it, he began to record in his notebook that the price of the 16M USB flash drive should be reduced first, and it would be too disingenuous for consumers to sell it at the previous price.

Moreover, it is estimated that the sales volume of the 16M USB flash drive will not be much in the future, so it should be promptly cleared.

The U disk with a capacity of 16M can also be changed from a metal outer model to a plastic casing, starting to take the low-cost route, so that the market share of the U disk can continue to be maintained.

After all, the technical content of USB flash drives is not complicated. According to feedback, there are already some imitation USB flash drives on the market.

Different from the previous big brands of Suoni, many of these are produced by small domestic companies, which are highly concealed and scattered. Given the current environment in China, it is difficult to eliminate them.

Eternal Technology's attitude is still tough. In the past two months, it has reported and investigated several times, which has played a deterrent effect.

However, Eternal Technology does need some relatively low-priced USB flash drives to be put on the market to meet the needs of consumers.

At the same time, the development of a USB flash drive with a capacity of 64M must also be put on the agenda, so as to seize the opportunity.

After all, U disk technology patents are licensed to different manufacturers. If your own company is the technology owner and lags behind other companies in this respect, it is actually unreasonable.

After reading the USB flash drive, Lin Xiao looked at Gpod again. The production cost of Gpod has also dropped compared to when it was first launched. This is more due to the reduction in unit price cost after the increase in production scale.

As for Gpod, Lin Xiao didn't think about reducing the price. After all, it has been on the market for less than a year, and he can wait until the next generation of products is launched before making adjustments.

As for the next generation of updated products, Lin Xiao has already arranged and prepared for it, so he didn't discuss it at today's meeting.
