Top of the big era

Ziweixing has almost no parachuted executives. Senior managers in the management are basically promoted from within.

Because the shortcomings of parachuted executives are obvious.

For example, they are not good enough at persuading the public, do not understand the business well enough, lack trust and understanding with the team, and are not fully integrated into the corporate culture. In a core position where everyone has their own job, parachuting in is blocking the promotion path of internal employees. Some companies don't even have any parachuted executives.

Zhang Xiaolong is a special case.

At present, his shortcomings of insufficient integration are exposed.

Zhou Buqi held a meeting with everyone this time to ban WeChat business. He has a very firm mentality. He knows that the WeChat business road is simply not feasible, no matter how many reasons there are. So there is no need to listen to too many theoretical opinions from others, and you can act arbitrarily.

There is no need to vote at all.

Because this is the "culture" of Ziweixing.

If it is a matter or project that Boss Zhou is not sure about, he can't figure it out or lacks confidence, then he will brainstorm, fully demonstrate, and each department will provide data and analysis reports, and then vote in the meeting, and the minority will obey the majority.

For example, Liang Ruobo replaced Tang Binchen as the CEO of Friends.com.

Zhou Buqi was not sure about the future development of Friends.com.

Liang Ruobo launched his own "Three Circle Theory", and Zhou Buqi did not participate at all, because this was a complete innovation and had never appeared in the past. In the end, the executives voted and gave Liang Ruobo trust to let him go, and finally Friends.com became glorious.

There is another situation, that is, Boss Zhou's attitude is very firm.

There is nothing to say about this.

There is no need to vote.

He said how to do it, and everyone should do it!

Put aside differences and firmly implement!

There are too many such things, and almost every time there are unexpected miraculous effects. It can be said that Ziweixing can achieve such brilliant achievements in a short period of time, mainly relying on Boss Zhou's autocracy!

Because of his autocracy, Ziweixing can greatly save decision-making time and trial and error costs, and can find the best one in the first time among many choices, rush up without thinking, and quickly seize the first-mover advantage.

The same is true for this time.

Zhou Buqi's attitude was very clear. According to convention, there was no need to vote.

Just do what he said.

Everyone was used to it.

Unexpectedly, "paratrooper" Zhang Xiaolong stood up.

He had never experienced such a thing.

It was hard to imagine that such a big thing, without repeated arguments and multi-level discussions, as well as research in technology, products, markets, and academics, was sentenced to death based on a few words from the big boss.

How could it be like this?

At least there should be some basic procedural justice, and a voting procedure, right?

This is the company's articles of association.

In theory, Zhou Buqi does need to go through the voting procedure. It's just that he has decided on it, and the vote will definitely pass. In order to save efficiency and shorten the meeting time, everything is kept simple. Who would oppose Boss Zhou?

If you really oppose it, it will be troublesome.

This is a disunited team.

The organizational structure will change.

Moreover, you can't oppose it even if you want to.

Boss Zhou has the most voting rights in the shareholders' meeting, board of directors and decision-making committee of Ziweixing. If what he is determined to do is really exaggerated, no one can change it.

This makes Zhang Xiaolong's request for a meeting vote seem inappropriate.

It's as if he is challenging Boss Zhou's authority.

How can this be possible?

This is a red line, much more serious than whether to ban micro-businesses.

So people like Zhang Yiming, Guo Pengfei, Meng Houkun, Wang Xiaochuan and others have clearly stated that they want to support the development of micro-businesses, but when voting, they all stand on the side of "banning micro-businesses". They don't support the resolution to ban micro-businesses, they support Zhou Buqi.

In everyone's opinion, Zhang Xiaolong's behavior as an airborne soldier is questioning Boss Zhou.

This is not okay!

The airborne soldiers did not realize the significance of Boss Zhou to Ziweixing at all. Ensuring the execution of Boss Zhou's decisions on Ziweixing is much more important than whether micro-businesses exist or not. Let alone whether WeChat business can succeed in the future, even if it does succeed, it will only be a business under WeChat under Ziweixing.

This led to a huge disparity in the vote.

Of the 13 executives, except Zhang Xiaolong who expressed his support for the development of WeChat business, the other 12 executives all supported the abolition of WeChat business.

Zhou Buqi had expected such a result long ago. Most of the people present had grown up with Ziweixing, so he smiled and said, "So it's passed?"

He Yang said solemnly, "12 votes in favor, 1 vote against, to abolish WeChat business."

Zhang Xiaolong was stunned and speechless.

It's still hard to understand.

Why is this happening?

Don't you all support the development of WeChat business? Why did he suddenly betray?

After the meeting, Zhou Buqi was still a little surprised and asked Zhang Yiming and He Yang, "What's wrong with him? How is his cooperation with us at work?"

Zhang Yiming smiled and said, "There is no problem at work, maybe he is not used to it yet."

He Yang said: "The style at Penguin is different from ours. President Ma is not a dictator. Penguin's decision-making body is the President's Office, which is basically a collective vote of senior executives. Moreover, he also has certain privileges at Penguin. When Mr. Ma communicates with him, he always uses the tone of application and request.”

Zhou Buqi said: "I don't seem to be very overbearing, right? I have already explained to everyone the reasons for banning micro-business. For fear that everyone will misunderstand, I even flew back from the United States to explain this matter to everyone. No matter how you support it, , Wechat business will definitely fail, and there is no possibility of success. If Wechat business survives for one more day, the damage to WeChat will increase.”

The big boss said this, and Zhang Yiming immediately expressed his position, "I will issue a notice soon to ban the development of micro-business on WeChat. The rectification of the product must be completed within three days."

He Yang joked: "You still come back too little. If you come back a few more times, people will understand."

Zhou Buqi said: "You have to tell people clearly. Don't cause any misunderstanding, as if everyone is deliberately targeting him."

He Yang said: "I've sent Meng Houkun away. I'll talk to him later."

…

At this time, Meng Houkun had already gone to Zhang Xiaolong's office.

Zhang Xiaolong was still a little distracted and looked up at him, "Why?"

Meng Houkun said: "This is difficult to understand? His name is Zhou Buqi. Is this reason enough?"

"But you promised me that you would support micro-business, and you would support it unswervingly."

Zhang Xiaolong restrained himself from calling him a traitor.

Meng Houkun said calmly: "I still say the same now, I support micro-business, and I support it unswervingly."

"Then you vote!"

Zhang Xiaolong became a little angry.

Meng Houkun said: "I support it. This is my personal behavior. The company's vote is my position as the company's director and senior vice president. I must put aside my personal position and stand on the company's side."

"What?"

Zhang Xiaolong almost laughed angrily, thinking his theory was ridiculous.

Meng Houkun said: "I support micro-business. You saw it during the meeting. Most people support micro-business. This is reality. However, just because I support micro-business does not mean that my intention to support micro-business is right. "

"Ah?" Zhang Xiaolong was a little confused, "What do you mean? Do you support or oppose it?"

Meng Houkun said: "These are two things. First, I support WeChat Business and I support you against Zhou Buqi. Second, the idea that I support WeChat Business and I support you but oppose Zhou Buqi is wrong. It’s impossible for me to act out of impulse and be on the wrong side of something when I know I’m wrong.”

"Are you sure?"

"able!"

"Bullshit."

"We all know the easiest way to judge right from wrong, except you."

"Um?"

Zhang Xiaolong suddenly broke into a cold sweat and realized that he was out of place.

Meng Houkun said: "Zhou Buqi said, if micro-business is not good, micro-business will fail, then it will definitely fail. I can't push the company to do micro-business just because I recognize and believe in micro-business, leading the company to Point of no return.”

Zhang Xiaolong was unconvinced, "Why? Everyone makes mistakes, and he is not a god."

Meng Houkun looked at him deeply and said, "You should go find Professor Han and take a history class to learn the development history of Ziweixing."
