My 1999

So it would be better to separate the main business of Nanfu Battery, 'alkaline batteries', and list it separately.

He is not interested in the alkaline battery business anyway.

Separating it out can also increase the concentration of Torch Group's auto parts business.

Hearing this, Zeng Shuyan felt relieved.

What Xu Liang can think of, he can think of too.

He does not reject the integration of ATL and Nanfu, but he is worried about how to distribute power.

Now it's good, if Nanfu is separated out, there will only be one lithium battery business, and integration will be much easier.

The opportunity is right in front of him, and Zeng Shuyan is not hypocritical.

"Thank you for Mr. Xu's trust, I will do my best to make Torch Group a giant in the global lithium battery industry."

"I don't want a giant, but the first!" Xu Liang said directly.

Looking at the deep eyes of the big boss, Zeng Shuyan instantly felt the pressure.

"I will do my best."

Xu Liang nodded, "I will give you ten years. During these ten years, you will be in charge of one-third of Torch Group's R\u0026D funds. I am just waiting to see the results."

"Understood."

Zeng Shuyan agreed solemnly.

After the two talked for a long time about the future development of lithium batteries, Zeng Shuyan left with his new position.

As senior vice president of Torch Group, he is responsible for the coordination and supervision of the nine first-level business departments under the auto parts sector.

He also serves as the general manager of the lithium battery department and is directly responsible for the development of the lithium battery business.

In addition, he joined the Torch Group Management Committee and became the third person after Xu Liang and Peng Shengyu.

After seeing Zeng Shuyan off, Xu Liang picked up the phone and called Peng Shengyu.

"Mr. Xu."

"Old Peng, I have found someone to be in charge of the Torch auto parts sector and sent him over.

In addition to the supervision and coordination of the auto parts sector, he will also be in charge of the lithium battery business."

"Okay, Mr. Xu."

"One more thing. I agree with your suggestion to cut the piston pin department, but the mirrors and lights are not good enough at the moment. Although the profit is not high, it is developing rapidly and the market is expanding.

Before the three-electric project is developed, we need these businesses to provide profits for Xiang Torch."

After the strategic plan of Torch's auto parts sector was set to focus on the three-electric research and development in the future, the business departments under Torch's auto parts business suddenly increased to twelve.

It's a bit too much.

The R\u0026D funds seem to be a lot, but it's less when allocated to twelve departments.

And the more departments there are, the less attention there is.

So the two discussed eliminating some products that are small in scale and low in technological content.

Piston pins, bearings, mirrors and lights, connecting rods, engines, etc. are all within the scope of deletion.

However, after some consideration, Xu Liang still kept the mirrors and lights department.

Although the technical content is not high, Torch Group's car mirror and car lamp production is the highest in China's auto parts, accounting for 17.4% of the national market.

The profit is not bad.

"Mr. Xu, what should we do with the cut-off business? Do we trade directly with Wanxiang?"

"Send a letter to large domestic auto parts companies to see who is interested. The highest bidder wins."

"Okay."

After a few more instructions, Xu Liang hung up the phone.

If everything goes well, Torch Group's auto parts sector will reduce the first-line business departments from the current twelve to seven, including lithium batteries, motors, electronic control systems, spark plugs, car mirrors, car lights, brake systems and air conditioning systems.

When the lithium battery business develops and makes enough profit, it may be adjusted.

Of course, the specific situation depends on the situation.

After handling the company's affairs, Xu Liang drove home.

Tianbi Gao's villa has not been completed yet, so he still lives at No. 67 Repulse Bay. As for the Barker Road, with the continuous growth of Hongyan, it has completely become Hongyan's office building.

However, the 15,000 square meters of No. 33 Barker Road is enough to cope with the staff expansion of Hongyan for three or four years.

Back home.

A little guy in open-crotch pants, with two chubby legs, ran over.

"Baba!"

Xu Liang's face was full of the kindness of an old father. He bent down and stretched out his hands to lift him up high.

The happy little guy laughed loudly.

"Dad."

Xu Zhongyu, who had two pigtails and wore a Donald Duck T-shirt, followed closely with small steps.

Xu Liang happily hugged him.

The twins that Qiao Yu gave birth to are now more than one year old.

Because they inherited Xu Liang's talent, they are born with strong muscles and bones.

They can walk when they are eight months old.

Now they walk very steadily.

"Kiss daddy."

"Click."

The little girl followed suit, and Xu Boqing next to her was unwilling.

"Little Jinzi, kiss daddy."

Xu Liang leaned his big face over.

"No, it's dirty."

Two little hands pushed Xu Liang's face away directly.

"You little brat, do you think I'm dirty?"

She leaned over and kissed her son's smooth little face.

"Come on, Daddy will play horse riding with you."

When the father and son were having fun, Qiao Yuhui also came back.

The family of four played for a while, had dinner, and after coaxing the two little ones to sleep, they lay on the bed.

After a round of adult games of preaching and receiving fluids, Qiao Yuhui was completely clear from the inside out.

After being held by Xu Liang and taking a bath, she leaned softly in the man's arms.

"I feel like I won't want to serve you for a month or two after serving you once."

"Who told you to go alone? Where's Jun Ning?"

"Everyone is tired from integrating Monster Beverage during this period, so I gave her a week off.

She's back now.

How about I call her back tomorrow?"

"No, wait until she's done with her vacation. By the way, I haven't asked you yet, how is Monster Beverage?"

Qiao Yuhui couldn't help but curl up her lips, "You have a conscience."

Monster Beverage is actually Hanson Company of California. Before launching the functional beverage 'Monster' in 2002, it also produced soda and juice drinks in California.

Thanks to Xu Liang's advice, Hanhua spent less than $200 million to acquire Hanson Company.

After the acquisition, Monster Beverage began to grow explosively. In just three years, it became the largest functional beverage company in the United States. In the first quarter of 2005, its revenue exceeded 1.7 billion Chinese yuan.

Net profit was 280 million Chinese yuan.

The valuation exceeded 3 billion US dollars.

More importantly, Monster Beverage has developed rapidly, and its products are sold throughout the English-speaking world.

Although it is not as good as Red Bull, it has quickly narrowed the gap between the two sides and filled the gaps in functional drinks and soda water that Master Kong has in two products.

In addition, through the channels and brands of Hansen, Master Kong has successfully introduced its products into the North American market.

Kill two birds with one stone.

"I have paid a lot to convince Xiaoyang to give it up." Xu Liang took credit in front of his wife.

Rolled his eyes at him.

"Forget it. Hongyan didn't take a penny of the $3 billion."

Master Kong paid $600 million in cash for the acquisition of Monster Beverage, and then issued $1.5 billion in corporate bonds, and the remaining $900 million was paid with new shares after the acquisition.

"Am I talking about money? I'm talking about favors. You should have a deep understanding of how difficult it is to ask for money from a woman."

"How do you want me to thank you? Find you a beautiful woman to serve you?"

"Not impossible."

After glaring at him, Qiao Yuhui said unhappily: "You will die in a woman's belly sooner or later."

"Haha, I can bear it after I have the capital, and you have experienced this yourself." Xu Liang said proudly.

Qiao Yuhui twisted his thigh directly.

This was one of the reasons why she agreed to Xu Liang's absurd behavior.

She really couldn't handle this man alone.

"You are really a donkey."

"Thank you for the compliment. But the rewards should still be given. Even if it is a donkey in the production team, it should be given a carrot when it pulls the mill." Xu Liang smiled.

"Okay, how do you want me to reward you?"

Qiao Yuhui smiled, but her eyes were dangerous.

Xu Liang knew that if he wanted a woman, his end would be miserable.

But he didn't plan to ask for this.

Do you need Qiao Yuhui's consent to want a woman?

Just wave your hand and a large number of beautiful women will come one after another.

He stretched out his right hand and wiped the woman's plump headlights.

He took both soft and hard into consideration, coordinated up and down, and had first-class skills.

"Yuhui, Xiaojinzi and Yuyu are more than one year old. Let's have another child while we are young?"

"That's what you want?"

"Yes."

Xu Liang nodded.

The property he allocated to Qiao Yuhui included Jianlibao, Penguin and Hong Kong Stock Exchange shares. Any one of them would be a future industry giant.

It is not possible to have a prodigal son.

Of course, you need to have a good reputation so that you can choose the best to inherit the family business.

More importantly, having more children is not only good for the family business, but also can strengthen the relationship between the two.

When Qiao Yuhui is old and ugly, although her sexual interest and love are gone, her family affection and comradeship are still there.

Children are the best glue for family affection.

Naturally, the more the better.

Finally, the ancients often said that more children bring more blessings, which still makes sense.

At least if you have more sons, you should think twice when outsiders want to bully you.

Avoid the situation of "eating up the whole family".

"It's not impossible to have children, but you have to agree to one condition?"

"What condition?"

"Do you still remember the information you sent me a month ago, "The impact of China's economic upgrading on the future development of enterprises"?"

Xu Liang nodded.

When he wrote "The Age of Intelligence" to introduce big data, cloud computing and artificial intelligence, he also wrote some discussions about the future development of enterprises based on his own memory.

Then he sent it to his major companies to let them read it and broaden their horizons.

This article "The Impact of China's Economic Upgrading on the Future Development of Enterprises" is one of them.

"This material is very good. It summarizes past experiences and points out the way for the future development of Master Kong.

But because it is too advanced, ordinary middle and senior employees may find it difficult to understand.

My prestige is also difficult for them to pay attention to.

So I hope that you, the new Forbes No. 2, global entrepreneurial elite, and financial genius, can give a speech at Master Kong. Use your influence to make this material really popular.

In addition, use this material to convince the management of Monster Beverage, otherwise it will be too difficult to completely integrate Monster Beverage from aspects such as corporate culture."

The integration of enterprises is a very difficult and long-term thing.

Its real difficulty is not management and finance.

This is actually very easy to solve.

The key is corporate culture. If you want the acquired company to recognize your system, abide by your laws and regulations, and be willing to work for you, this is the difficulty.

Chinese people often say, ‘It’s easy to conquer the world, but hard to rule it.’

The same is true for running a company.

"Okay, no problem, you come and prepare." Xu Liang said directly.

It's just a meeting anyway.

Easy.

"There's one more thing.

Other women around you, such as Fan Xiaopang, Liu Qianqian, and Tong Yaya, have started businesses, and those who don't have a business have the trust you give them.

Jun Ning has been with you for more than a year, and she was a pure and innocent girl before. You can't be partial to one over the other, right?"

Xu Liang looked at her in surprise.

"As a woman, shouldn't you be jealous? Why do you want to give her a benefit?"

"If I were jealous, I wouldn't put her in your bed. And she is my secretary. When the family is divided in the future, she will naturally stand on my side.

A hero has three helpers, and a fence has three stakes.

I still understand the same principle." Qiao Yuhui said.

Xu Liang looked at her calm look and felt strange in his heart.

This is really going the way of a housewife in the feudal era.

The maid of the wife in ancient times was commonly known as Tongfang Yatou.

The maidservant usually takes over when the wife is unable to serve the master, such as when she is pregnant, sick, or has other reasons.

In ancient times, the maidservant would most likely be pregnant.

Once the maidservant gets pregnant and has a child, she can get rid of her maidservant status and be promoted to a concubine.

Having three wives and four concubines is the dream of almost all men.

But who are the three wives?

Who are the four concubines? I guess few people know.

The origin of the three wives can be traced back to the Spring and Autumn Period.

Duke Ling of Qi, the one who likes to dress up as a woman.

After he ascended the throne, he never decided on the queen.

The reason is very simple.

He has three boats under his feet.

These three people have their own merits, and it seems that any one of them can be chosen, but it also feels that none of them can be chosen.

So when a minister came to ask, this old pervert joked.

He wanted to make all three women queens.

It was originally a joke, but it was recorded by the censors. Everyone felt that the king did not joke, so there was the saying of three wives.

However, there is no historical origin for the four concubines.

It was not until the Yuan Dynasty that a sentence appeared in the Jin Ping Mei, the first of the four great books and a must-read masterpiece for men.

"As for three wives and four concubines, they are bought with laughter and pursue pleasure."

Since then, the saying of three wives and four concubines has spread.

In ancient times, the three wives refer to the main wife, the secondary wife, and the secondary wife. The status of the main wife is the same as that of the husband and wife, and the children they give birth to are also called legitimate sons. In a precise sense, only the main wife is considered a wife.

The four concubines are actually concubines of four identities.

In ancient times, the status of concubines was very low, like commodities, but because of different births, concubines of four different origins were divided.

The first type is noble concubines, or Teng concubines. They are the dowry of the main wife. They may be daughters of the same clan, or they may be the main wife's confidant maids. Their role is to help the main wife consolidate her status and strengthen the marriage.

In a family, the status of Teng concubines is very high. If they have a good relationship with the main wife, their power even exceeds that of ordinary secondary wives.
