Rebirth of the Age of Wealth

Chapter 615 Seminar

The gold medal is only superficial. The honor of winning the gold medal, raising the national flag and playing the national anthem is important. Even Li Weidong, who has been a man for two lifetimes, still has a sore nose and goosebumps when he hears the national anthem.

This kind of thing is probably feelings, and I have to admire the seniors who composed this song. This kind of resonance is simply amazing!

Spending tens of millions to give everyone one more soul-piercing experience, Li Weidong thinks it’s worth it. His patriotic sentiments grow in this kind of soul-piercing trembling again and again!

After speaking, Li Weidong walked to the main office. There were a pair of large water tanks in the yard. The bowl lotus in the water tank was at the end of its flowering period, and the only few flowers showed signs of failure.

This was designed to imitate the layout of the ancients during decoration. It was originally intended to be used to drain water for drainage. When the weather was hot, Li Weidong put a handful of open lotus seeds.

Later, brother and sister Li Qian and Li Rui fished out some fish and shrimps and put them in. Such a small micro-ecology was created through the efforts of two generations, and it was a bit more green when placed at the door.

Every time Li Weidong passes by, he always feels better and smiles more on his face.

Seeing Li Weidong enter the house, the people outside let out a sigh of relief. It turned out that his rickety figure had become much taller and straighter.

When Chen Jun walked to the door, he looked back at the frightened expressions of several colleagues. He couldn't help but want to laugh, and suddenly thought that he was not like this just now.

Facing a person who can determine the upper limit of one's own destiny, it is not a shame to have this kind of mentality.

"What are you doing in a daze? Let's urge the secondary companies to invest in projects!" Chen Jun said with a smile, and then followed Li Weidong into the house.

Li Weidong walked behind the desk and sat down. Chen Jun also handed over the water glass and reminded, "Chairman, it's a little hot, please be careful!"

If Li Weidong didn't come on time, Chen Jun couldn't make tea in advance.

Seeing Li Weidong nod, Chen Jun left the boss's office. As for whether the boss came early because of something, he couldn't ask unless the boss said it.

Li Weidong looked through the company's documents for a while, thinking about the meeting of the Federation of Industry and Commerce, so he picked up the note paper on his desk and wrote with a pen, "Suggestions on the development of the central and western regions."

He does not need to write this kind of article himself, he only needs to give the central idea he wants to express, otherwise he cannot use sticky notes.

First I wrote a few clichés, and then came the suggestions. However, the suggestions were also divided into dry goods and wet goods. Some things looked like suggestions, but were actually flattering.

The real useful information is often said in a few euphemistic words at the end, so Li Weidong's first few suggestions seem to be big and empty things.

For example, improving competitiveness according to local conditions, establishing new development models, achieving leaps in innovation, and seeking breakthroughs in opportunities and challenges may seem like clichés.

At the end, Li Weidong mentioned something about cultivating and improving the business environment.

In fact, he wanted to add that he should strengthen the crackdown on consumer fraud, robbing customers and damaging the reputation of the local area. However, it was better to say these words, but it was a bit inappropriate to put them on paper.

After writing this, Li Weidong picked up the phone and asked Chen Jun to come in, gave him the note, and asked him to write a good article according to this.

Just after going to work in the afternoon, Zheng Sijing came over. He was the vice president in charge of investment. The things Li Weidong asked Chen Jun to count were directly related to him.

Zheng Sijing entered Li Weidong's office and said hello first, then took two folders and said: "Chairman, this is the list of projects invested by various companies in the central and western regions according to the statistics of the Investment Department!"

"This is a list of projects that various investment companies have recently approved but have not yet completed!"

Li Weidong took it and looked at it for a few times, but didn't pay much attention to it. Except for a few projects with relatively large investment amounts, such as West-East Gas Transmission and Salt Lake Potash Fertilizer, he only needed to know the number of projects invested and the total amount of investment.

Can.

Li Weidong put down the document, stood up, walked to the sofa next to him and sat down, and asked Zheng Sijing to come and sit down as well.

"You still need your dignified vice president to deliver this kind of thing personally?" Li Weidong asked with a half-smile.

"The chairman was joking. It's my honor to report to the leader. How can I not do it personally!" Zheng Sijing also laughed and said.

Li Weidong said, "Oh, okay, I received the things, you can go back!"

"No, Chairman!" Zheng Sijing said with a smile on his face.

"It's okay, if you don't leave, why don't you stay here for air conditioning or tea?"

Zheng Sijing still smiled and said: "That's what the chairman is saying. Our investment department manages thirteen VCs and four PEs. After this period of research and analysis, we discovered some problems, so we need to hold an internal seminar.

Discuss the current investment environment and investment strategies, and also let everyone communicate and share investment experience with each other so that we can carry out our work better!"

Li Weidong nodded and said: "This is a good thing. The investment department itself has a strategic guidance role. I think such meetings should be held frequently, which will also help them develop business!"

Internal seminars are completely different from those public investment seminars and venture capital conferences. It is estimated that those who participated did not speak the truth.

It’s all to promote the company, promote itself, and get more attention. As for its true development direction and operation methods, how can it be told to outsiders, let alone its competitors!

Even the speeches of some experts and scholars are mostly for certain purposes. As for truly useful words, how can they be said so casually!

Knowledge is power, and the embodiment of power is value. Real knowledge has a price!

Moreover, the various forums, seminars, and even debates that have begun to flourish in recent years have lost their original meaning from the beginning.

Now it seems like a fight of arms and a debate, but in the end the real meaning is often mutual business support.

Although the company's internal seminars may sometimes hide killer tips, after all, some operating methods and investment strategies can still be discussed.

You have a thought, and I have a thought. If you name it, there may be countless thoughts.

And in some circumstances, people have the desire to express themselves, especially in front of people who can control their own struggles. The company's source of funds for the next year still needs the approval of the investment department.

Seeing that Li Weidong agreed, Zheng Sijing said, "What the chairman said was that when we were discussing the process and topics of this meeting a few days ago, we brought it up. I wonder if we have the honor to listen to you say a few words!"

"In internal seminars, are you still engaging in these vain formalisms?" Li Weidong said with a hint of helplessness.

Zheng Sijing felt a little embarrassed when his boss said this. How could this be formalism? This reflected the company's importance, but he also knew that the boss's intention was not an obvious rejection, and he had to work harder.

"Chairman, although this is an internal seminar within the company, it is the first time after all, and it will be held frequently in the future. It always has to be grand. We are also very much looking forward to your coming. We also hope that the Chairman can support us. This is also

It shows that the company takes it seriously!”

Li Weidong looked at Zheng Sijing and said with a smile: "You are trying to conquer my army. If I don't join, I won't support your work!"

Zheng Sijing understood Li Weidong and continued to say with a smile: "This is not your army. The main thing is that your speech is high-level and has new things. It enlightens us and saves us a lot of detours..."

Li Weidong Bai waved his hand to stop Zheng Sijing's flattery, and asked unbearably: "When?"

"On Friday and Saturday, depending on the discussion, appropriate adjustments can be made!" Zheng Sijing replied.

"I'm afraid, I have a meeting of the Federation of Industry and Commerce on Thursday, and I promised to take my children to play in the capital for two days, but I'm afraid I won't be able to make it back!" Li Weidong secretly rejoiced.

Li Weidong insists on getting rid of his daily work and only intervening in some major company affairs. Although it is reluctant to say that this kind of seminar is a major company matter, it is equally reluctant to say that it is daily work. After all, it is also a group activity. If you are ambiguous, you may not participate.

"Chairman, considering everyone's work situation, travel convenience, and overall cost, this meeting will be held in Beijing!" Zheng Sijing said with a smile.

Zheng Sijing originally didn't have much confidence in inviting Li Weidong to the capital. No one knew better than him how lazy Li Weidong was, so he even coined the word "otaku" for this reason.

In the morning, he suddenly heard that his boss was going to the capital for a meeting, which gave him hope. The probability of it happening suddenly increased a lot.

A meeting with Li Weidong and a meeting without him are definitely two different things, and the effect of the meeting will definitely be different too!

"Wait for me here, right?" Li Weidong said helplessly.

"Don't blame me, the company has recently issued a policy to save meeting costs. This is also a comprehensive consideration of various situations!" Zheng Sijing said with a smile.

There were more than a dozen companies, including many partners, general managers, and deputy general managers. In addition to the directors and heads of relevant departments, there were at least two to three hundred people attending the meeting.

Most of these people are concentrated in big cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen. Traveling to the capital is also more convenient, saving a lot of time and cost.

Although the cost of accommodation and conference services in Beijing is not low, if these are moved from Beijing to Qizhou, the cost will be even greater. Even in Beijing, the use of hotels and conference services is the company's internal resources, and fertilizers are still circulating internally, and the cost is also high.

not tall.

In fact, Zheng Sijing still had something he didn't want to say. He had always felt that placing the headquarters of a company with such a large scale of business in Qizhou was not a wise choice, but he couldn't say this.

Li Weidong nodded to agree with this statement. He knew this rule, and he proposed it. It must be implemented not only in the head office, but also in other second- and third-level subsidiaries.

After Tian Ya took office, he made an analysis of the financial situation of the head office itself. As a headquarters, it does not involve production and operation activities, and the company's income is distributed from the equity and dividends of each subsidiary, and there is not much tax relationship.

Therefore, in addition to the investment part, the most important part of the company's finances is the operation and management costs, so such financial statements look particularly simple.

When Li Weidong saw the financial statements, he saw the blackened numbers at a glance and realized that the company's operating costs had almost doubled in the past six months.

After asking more carefully, I found out that the increased expenses were for welcome and transportation, conference receptions, and dinner and cocktail receptions.

Li Weidong estimated that these subordinates must be able to build things because they know that he, the world's richest man, has no shortage of money. Although the money is not much, it is spent in the wrong place. Li Weidong cannot be used to it.

Li Weidong nodded in agreement: "You follow the normal process, I will take the time to go over and have a look!"
