Top of the big era

There is a family dinner in the evening.

Zhou Buqi went south on a business trip this time, and he was accompanied by four secretaries, Sun Wanran, Yan Qiqi, Mai Feixue, and Han Yalan, as well as sister Xu Yuting who was taking care of her health.

Just take them all with you and go there together.

This is actually a bit much.

Is there any reason to take your little lover to a decent mother-in-law’s house for a family dinner?

Isn't this a demonstration and a provocation?

But Zhou Buqi is used to it. He has taken his wife, lover, assistant, secretary, star and the like to dinner many times.

Zhou Buqi was embarrassed at first.

It was Shi Jinglin who invited Wen Zhixia to go with her. With this beginning, she became more and more free. Especially after the Shi family's father-in-law and mother-in-law divorced, the family lacked a backbone, so Zhou Buqi was brought up.

Every time we have a family dinner, no matter how many elders are present, he is the one who sits at the head table and entertains everyone like a host.

Even the aunt at home saw the reality clearly.

As soon as Zhou Buqi entered the door, Ali happily ran over to tidy up his slippers and said with a smile: "Sir is back!"

"Um."

Zhou Buqi smiled and nodded at her.

Oops!

I forgot this aunt's last name.

In fact, when Zhou Buqi came to Shi's house, the aunt called him "Xiao Zhou". Later, when Zhou Buqi became famous, he began to call him "Mr. Zhou".

After the father-in-law of the Shi family got divorced and moved out to live with his young wife, and Zhou Buqi became the male head of the family, the title of aunt changed again to "Mr."

This is not so much the "Shi Family" as the "Zhou Family", or the "Zhou Shi Family". The aunts and nannies at home obey Zhou Buqi's words.

Zhou Buqi pointed to the young and beautiful beauties around him and said casually: "Auntie, these are my secretaries. Please arrange for them to change into pajamas and wander around the house."

The aunt who had worked in the Shi family for most of her life agreed immediately, and then said with a smile: "Sir, the eldest lady is in the kitchen, and the second lady is in the study."

"Ah? Second sister is here too?"

Zhou Buqi was a little surprised.

The second young lady she talks about is actually the second young lady Shi Jingmei. Speaking of which, his relationship with Shi Jinglin and his second sister Shi Jingmei was much closer than his relationship with his eldest sister Shi Jingyue.

Zhou Buqi turned around and told Mai Feixue and Yan Qiqi, "We'll stay here tonight. You go take a shower and change into your pajamas. This is our own home and we don't need to see anyone else."

In this summer, it's so hot outside.

There is inevitably some sweat smell.

For girls who love to be clean, the first thing they do when they get home is to take a shower and change clothes.

Zhou Buqi went directly to the second floor.

I went to the study on the left first, which was empty.

I went to the study room on the right and saw the second sister Shi Jingmei sitting at the table with a pen in her hand and sketching some materials.

"Second sister."

Zhou Buqi winked.

Shi Jingmei raised her head with a bright smile on her face, "Ah! You're here? I've been waiting for you all day!"

Zhou Buqi walked into the study and asked, "Why are you back?"

Shi Jingmei said: "I was already there."

"Not sitting in Europe?"

"This is the break between seasons. We need to deal with a large amount of blind box inventory remaining from last season. We also have to work overtime to catch up on blind box orders for next season. I'll keep an eye on it when I get back."

"You still have to keep an eye on me every time?"

Zhou Buqi walked to the sofa and sat down with his legs crossed.

Shi Jingmei ran over, sat next to him, took his arm affectionately, and said with a chuckle: "I have to keep an eye on it, otherwise they might make some mistakes! Once, I made the wrong mold when I followed the hand-made model.”

Zhou Buqi sniffed the faint scent of perfume on her body and shook his head without any thought, "Then you have worked hard enough!"

Shi Jingmei sighed softly: "There's nothing we can do about it, who calls us the boss! Isn't that what corporate management is like? Only things that the boss personally looks after can be done well. Things that the boss doesn't look at will definitely not be done. . If the boss doesn’t keep an eye on it, and the vice president, director, etc. have accomplished this, then the team will most likely resign en masse and go out to work alone.”

Zhou Buqi smiled and said, "That makes sense."

What Shi Jingmei said is common sense in business management, and it is also an unavoidable pain point for many traditional companies.

The boss has to personally direct.

If the boss doesn't keep an eye on it, his subordinates will laugh and laugh without paying attention, and it will be difficult to get things done. If something is done without the boss watching or directing it... this would be even more troublesome. Doesn't this mean that they can handle this kind of thing alone without a boss? So what’s the point of having a boss?

They will choose to leave, use their past experience and accumulated resources to go out and work alone, seize the company's old customers, and become important competitors.

Therefore, for many traditional companies, the big boss is very rich and has a high social status, and is surrounded by a lot of Xiaomi Xiaoqing, but their life is never free and happy, as if they have been kidnapped by the company, and they have to live all the time. Watching closely all the time is much harder than ordinary people, and it is common to work more than ten hours a day.

Shi Jingmei held his arm, rested her chin on his shoulder affectionately, and whispered in his ear: "Not everyone is as good as you. You have opened so many companies, so you don't have to keep an eye on me." With this, others can also do their best to get things done.”

Zhou Buqi nodded, "Actually, there are two solutions."

"Teach me?"

Shi Jingmei blinked, holding his arm in her arms, twisting and rubbing. It was summer, and she was at home, so she was very casual, not wearing underwear, which was somewhat provocative.

Zhou Buqi was well-informed and unmoved, saying: "First, the main thing is the distribution of equity. Look at Ziweixing, who is the boss? I am the boss, Zhang Yiming, Guo Pengfei, He Yang, Meng Houkun, Cheng Binghao, People like Ji Zian, Nie Caijun, and Liang Rubo all have a lot of shares and are also bosses. With so many people watching together, no matter how big a company is, it can run."

Shi Jingmei saw that he was not tempted by her beauty and brought up such a serious topic again, so she became serious, let him go, frowned and said, "Does the Chaowan Commune also want to divide its shares?"

Zhou Buqi said: "It depends on the size of Chaowan Commune. When the company was small, all the business could be overseen by the boss alone. But as the company gets bigger, it's impossible for you to control everything. You have to divide the shares, bring in more bosses, and let more bosses keep an eye on it.”

"Um."

"If you look at large companies around the world, except for state-owned enterprises with monopoly on resources, they all adopt the strategy of dividing shares and decentralizing power. The more shares you give away, the more responsible the new boss will be."

"Is it just shares in exchange for freedom?"

Shi Jingmei was thoughtful.

Zhou Buqi laughed, "Yes, shares in exchange for freedom, summed up well!"

In fact, he has always done this, but there is no such summary. Shi Jingmei's words can be said to be a perfect interpretation.

As early as the beginning of the "Ten School Entrepreneurship Alliance", someone actually told him privately that he felt that the shares he had given away were a bit too much.

It's simply not necessary.

In fact, it was really unnecessary. Those people at that time were college students who had not seen much of the world. Just give them some benefits and you could settle them all.

Zhou Buqi did not adopt it.

Only by giving enough shares, distributing the benefits, and making them all real bosses will they try their best to do things with all their abilities, and risk being expelled from school to work with him. , do your duty with all your heart, no matter the cost.

Because of the conscientiousness of these people, they gave Zhou Buqi freedom, so that he did not have to be bound by the company's operations and daily management, and did not have to focus on trivial matters. He could invest, pick up girls, and make friends. Make connections and develop new businesses.

However, equity alone is not enough.

Zhou Buqi continued: "The distribution of equity is the distribution of interests. This alone is not enough. There is a more important influencing factor."

Shi Jingmei asked: "What is it?"

Zhou Buqi said: "Recognition of the mission."

"Well……"

Shi Jingmei felt that this was a bit too difficult.

Zhou Buqi said: "Having a common ideal, everyone working together to fight for a mission and an ideal is even more powerful than the incentive of shares. Many people are even willing to sacrifice their lives for their ideals, like Marie Curie, like Tan Sitong is like those revolutionary martyrs who sacrificed their lives for the country during the Anti-Japanese War. Their infinite strength does not come from profits, but from their great mission. Many people work for work, for wages. If the boss does not keep a stricter eye on them, they will Of course, they can steal opportunities and play tricks, and they can live a good life for a day. But some people work for a career pursuit. Such people... let alone salary, they may give money for this career. Such people, You don’t even have to watch, they will give everything they have to work hard.”

Shi Jingmei rolled her eyes, "Ziweixing can do it. It is a technology company with great ideals. It also makes mobile payments and plays Go with artificial intelligence. It is determined to change the world and change all mankind. Of course It can attract many like-minded top talents. Chaowan Commune is just selling blind boxes just to make money, how can it have such a noble mission?"

"Actually, it doesn't need to be such a lofty mission." Zhou Buqi shook his head, "Just like when I went to the Animation Center of Jieyu Media in the afternoon."

"What's wrong?"

"The Animation Center has a domestic animated film called "Journey to the West: The Return of the Great Sage." This was originally a project of a domestic 3D animation outsourcing team. They have been outsourcing for more than ten years, but they are unwilling to remain on the edge of the industry. When doing outsourcing, I want to produce a domestic animated film that is no less than Hollywood. However, the investment for a 3D CG animated film is at least tens of millions, and there is no money at all. And there is a lack of this market in China."

Shi Jingmei's eyes widened, "So they just pay for it themselves?"

Zhou Buqi nodded, "Those leaders have all mortgaged their houses and cars, just to realize their dreams at all costs."

Shi Jingmei was also deeply touched, "Did it succeed?"

Zhou Buqi said: "Success is nothing. How much does it cost to sell a house? It's not enough at all. I can't even pay my salary. I can only eat instant noodles every day and live like a homeless man. Fortunately, I came here later Jieyu Media proposed to focus on the development of domestic animation, and this project was discovered by Xu Baihui, who purchased the studio and invested in it."

Shi Jingmei nodded lightly, "Such a team should really be invested in. Even if this cartoon fails in the end, such a team will be very promising in the future and will definitely succeed."

Zhou Buqi smiled and said: "So, you should follow this idea. If you follow these two strategies together, you can be freed from the hard work. You don't have to keep an eye on small things like opening molds for toys."

Shi Jingmei felt melancholy and distressed, "But...but this animation team wants to produce a domestic animated film that is as good as Hollywood. This mission is also very noble and very motivational. Can the Chaowan Commune What's there? Opening a blind box is just a sideline for betting. How can there be any sublimity in this thing? It's not an exaggeration to say it's a deceptive business."

Zhou Buqi said angrily: "There is no mission in business, so you won't start with people?"

"What's the meaning?"

"Everyone has pursuits. The vast majority of people do not pursue some lofty ideal to change the world, but want to realize their own class leap, from an ordinary person to a superior person. With this level of motivation, It’s enough for him to give everything for his job, even if it’s a promotion and a salary increase? As long as he’s not just waiting to die with a dead salary, most people have certain pursuits.”

"That's not easy to find." Shi Jingmei shook her head, "Even if ordinary people want to become Renshangren, the purpose is for profit and to make money. As long as you work to make money, you shouldn't become a core executive. Huh? This is what you taught me!"

Zhou Buqi said with a smile: "You have a good memory."

Shi Jingmei pursed her lips and smiled, then she picked up his arm and clamped it on her chest. She twisted her body and said in a long voice: "Brother-in-law, just tell me what the second sister should do." ?As long as you tell me, the second sister will sleep with you tonight."

"Why are you sleeping with me? It's not like I don't have a woman." Zhou Buqi curled his lips, then coughed and said seriously, "Sister Yue gave birth to two children, both of whom are named Shi."

"Well, this was agreed upon when we got married."

"The eldest brother-in-law is the son-in-law?"

"Yes, Phoenix Man."

Shi Jingmei said it casually, and it was obvious that she had no respect for the brother-in-law who came to serve as her son-in-law.

Zhou Buqi said: "It seems that the eldest brother-in-law's ability is not bad."

"Well, he just didn't come from a good background. He came from a poor rural area. He finally got into college and stayed in the city. But he was really good. He worked as a study student in college. Not only did he not spend a penny, but he could also earn money every month. I was working part-time to send money to my family. He was handsome and capable, so he was attracted by my sister. I brought him home, and my parents were very satisfied." Shi Jingmei rambled on, Suddenly his eyebrows raised, "Huh? What do you mean? Brother-in-law?"

Zhou Buqi smiled, "Yes, eldest brother-in-law!"

"ah?"

Shi Jingmei was stunned.

Zhou Buqi said: "The eldest brother-in-law is definitely not short of money. He can do so well in the chemical plant business in the family business. He is Sister Yue's most capable assistant. His ability is definitely no problem. What is the eldest brother-in-law lacking most now? ? It’s about respect, it’s about getting rid of the identity of Phoenix Man! At the chemical factory, he will always live in the shadow of Sister Yue, and he will never be able to get rid of the title of son-in-law. How could he not have such an outstanding person in his heart? Thoughts? He is not short of money, and he does not work to make money. What he needs most is definitely the opportunity to prove himself! He did not rely on the Shi family to become a city citizen, he relied on his own ability. "

Shi Jingmei took a deep breath and said in a daze: "Let your brother-in-law come to Chaowan Commune to take charge of the supply chain and processing plant? Let him break away from the Shi family's industry and clear his name?"

"I think it's okay."

Zhou Buqi felt guilty.

He had a good impression of his eldest brother-in-law. When he first fell in love with Shi Jinglin, his eldest sister Shi Jingyue had a nose that was not a nose or an eye, and she looked down on him, a poor boy from the Northeast.

Even though he was a second-generation rich man, the Shi family was the second richest man in the city at that time, and there was a huge status gap.

At that time, it was his brother-in-law who kept smoothing things over for him and said a lot of nice things to him.

Moreover, the eldest brother-in-law has a high emotional intelligence, is good at conversation, has an easy-going personality, and is very cultured. He talks about many topics and has a common language with Zhou Buqi.

But last night when Zhou Buqi was socializing in Liangxi, he drank too much.

In order to relieve his hangover at night, he drank Sister Yue's milk in a natural way. He even checked the places that should be touched and shouldn't be touched.

This made him feel a little sorry.

The second sister Shi Jingmei is single, so no matter how intimate and playful she is, it doesn't matter. But the eldest sister, Shi Jingyue, had a family, so she felt a little sorry. Sister Yue even extended an invitation, saying that he could have an date with her at any time, and that he could eat and sleep whenever he wanted.

Zhou Buqi felt a little guilty towards his eldest brother-in-law.

Feel sorry for yourself.

Do him a favor this time and provide him with an opportunity to get rid of the "Phoenix Man" and the "Son-in-Law", so that he can break away from Sister Yue's control and find opportunities to prove himself.

This is related to a man's dignity and his family status.

Well, it’s considered even.
