Chapter 89: The Willing Hook

Putting down the materials in his hand, regarding the experience and performance of Dongling High-Tech from its establishment to the present, Ren Yuefeng felt that even if it were placed in Hong Kong, it would be full of miracles and unimaginable.

In Hong Kong, domestic celebrities have been very sought after in recent years. From the cultural circle to the arts circle and then to the business circle, countless people have been invited to Hong Kong to give exchange speeches or performances.

The deeds of domestic celebrities are almost familiar to everyone in Hong Kong. Boss Mou used canned food to exchange for airplanes and launched satellites; Shi Laoban carried a few thousand yuan and dared to owe money to advertise, earning a company with revenue of over a million in a year, etc. For Hong Kong, these things are also legendary.

And in the eyes of Hong Kong people, domestic entrepreneurs like Boss Mou, Shi Laoban, and Boss Liu of the Hope Group may not be as wealthy as the tycoons in Hong Kong, but they have more of the spirit of dominating the world, being heroic, and changing the world. Once they open their mouths, it's about changing and dominating the domestic market, walking out of Asia and rushing to the world. In Hong Kong, not many tycoons dare to say this.

Regardless of whether it's just talk, no matter how rich the Hong Kong tycoons are, no one dares to say what Boss Mou said, wanting to build a new city and launch a satellite company. Comparing how popular Musk was in the previous life, one can think of Boss Mou's status at this moment. They all did things that ordinary people wouldn't even dare to think about.

Of course, what Li Dongling did is also widely circulated in Hong Kong. What Hong Kong and Southeast Asia care about is not how easy the Silver Mink mouse is to use, nor how many Silver Mink mice were sold. None of that. It's that Dongling High-Tech actually dared to challenge Microsoft!

A company that had not been established for long dared to run to America and fight a lawsuit with Microsoft, the hegemon of the tech industry, and actually won. Which tycoon in Hong Kong, which industry king, dared to do what Dongling High-Tech did? What Dongling High-Tech did almost broke the cognition of companies in Southeast Asia and other places. This is the reason why it attracted countless media reports at the beginning.

As for what Li Dongling said in the exclusive interview, in fact, if he hadn't refuted BBC's Pan En and hadn't said words about challenging foreign brands, it probably wouldn't have caused such a big public opinion. Boss Mou and others of this era also made big talk, but they at most just talked about it. No one dared to be like Li Dongling, truly daring to directly start a fight with foreign brands.

Now, mainland concept stocks are very hot in Hong Kong and are highly sought after. As long as they go public, the stock price can double several times. This is also the reason why companies like Tsingtao Brewery, Sitong, and Lenovo all ran to Hong Kong to go public.

This time Ren Yuefeng was willing to come to Hanxi, and Dongling High-Tech was willing to pay him a high salary. Of course, that is one reason. On the other hand, Ren Yuefeng also wanted to find an opportunity!

Having stayed in Hong Kong for many years, Ren Yuefeng had clearly felt that some industry companies in Hong Kong had begun to show weakness, especially after failing to impact the North American and European markets. Competing with foreign brands had already become somewhat powerless.

In the final analysis, the market there is too small. Even if the wages are high and the consumption power is strong, it is still far inferior to foreign brands backed by the European and North American markets. When competing, they couldn't distinguish the winner, and once dragged down, they began to show weakness.

And now, although domestic companies are far inferior to those in Hong Kong, they all show a momentum of rainbow-like momentum, and backed by the huge domestic market, many Hong Kong companies have begun to shift their targets from Europe and North America to the mainland.

Not to mention Dongling High-Tech, the new leader of the domestic tech industry today. Ren Yuefeng wanted to come to Dongling High-Tech to try his luck.

"Manager Ren, welcome to Pingyang!"

After arriving in the Hanxi provincial capital, Ren Yuefeng was picked up by the Audi from Dongling High-Tech's logistics department and taken to Pingyang.

"Li Zong, I've long admired your name!"

After shaking hands with Li Dongling, Ren Yuefeng sized up Li Dongling, who was also quite famous in Hong Kong.

Li Dongling glanced at Ren Yuefeng. The materials sent by the Hong Kong headhunting company showed that Ren Yuefeng had a cautious personality and acted thoroughly. Since he stepped into the workplace, he had never made a mistake in his actions.

Ren Yuefeng was not the kind of fierce general who opened up territory, and his moves were not known for being strange. He was more of the kind who took steady steps and fought steadily. His style was not very popular with domestic companies now.

Domestic companies now like managers who have "work in their mouths," who must talk about the Shanghai Stock Exchange, must talk about the Hong Kong Stock Exchange in three years and the New York Stock Exchange in five years, who want to reach the industry's number one in a few years, and whose annual revenue breaks how many billions, etc. That is the professional manager that domestic companies like. Many companies are afraid of losing if they are one step slow, and all want to whip their horses to go fast, wanting to finish in one go what could be done in ten years!

"What would you like to drink, tea or coffee?" Li Dongling asked after shaking hands with Ren Yuefeng.

"Coffee!"

"I've been drinking it for ten years, I'm already used to it!" Ren Yuefeng sat down, his body straight. Even though he had revealed a smile, he still gave people a serious feeling.

Li Dongling made him a cup of coffee, instant. In this day and age, there were not many coffee shops in the country, including Yanqing, Shanghai, Pengcheng, etc. Even the craftsmanship of some coffee shops, the taste of the coffee they made, was not as good as instant coffee.

"I heard that Manager Ren is from Suhang?!"

"Yes!"

Ren Yuefeng said, "I grew up in Suhang. When I was ten, I went to Hong Kong with my parents!"

"Li Zong, forgive my bluntness," after a few pleasantries, Ren Yuefeng asked directly, "Li Zong, why did you find me? As far as I know, private enterprises in the mainland now all like... family inheritance, appointing family members or relatives and friends to manage the company, and rarely introduce professional managers."

Indeed, as Ren Yuefeng said, professional managers have not yet risen in the country. What is popular now is for children to inherit their father's business. In the eyes of more people, it is still their own things. How can they be handed over to outsiders to manage?!

"In my eyes, whether it is family management or introducing professional managers, there is no essential difference in quality.

In Hong Kong, there are also many family managements, right? There are also many family companies in North America and Europe. The century-old Motorola company is still family-managed to this day. Of course, because of family management, there are countless companies that have gone bankrupt, such as the Wang An company, which once gave birth to the world's richest Chinese person and is now bankrupt!"

Li Dongling looked at Ren Yuefeng, "This time I invited Manager Ren here, besides wanting you to manage the company, I hope more to formulate a modern management system for Dongling High-Tech!"

If a company wants to survive, it will sooner or later have to get rid of the "grass-roots team" and start introducing a management system. It is impossible to talk about how brilliant this management system is. Even if it runs for a long time, phenomena such as rigid management, failure to communicate orders, and bloated management personnel will appear.

But that is a matter for the future. If there is no management system, relying on the management of a grass-roots team, it might collapse in a few years.

Most of these famous domestic companies now are popular for a while, but suddenly fall. There must be reasons for their own development, but more of it is that internal problems have appeared. Without a modern management system, as long as internal problems appear, it will immediately become chaotic, and then like a runaway horse, it will be completely out of control.

In a few years, the Chrysanthemum Factory will spend huge sums of money to learn from IBM and introduce IBM's management system. It is hard to say how much use this system has for the Chrysanthemum Factory, but it is inseparable from the help of this management system.

Now, the scale of Dongling High-Tech has not yet reached the point where it needs to spend huge sums of money to ask other companies to formulate a management system, but it definitely needs adjustment. Starting to do it now is better than spending a lot of money to remedy it later!

"If I do it, I must ensure that the system I formulate can be pushed through, and it may even make some people leave!"

After thinking for a moment, Ren Yuefeng raised his head and said with an even more serious face.

"I can guarantee you!"

Li Dongling also said solemnly to Ren Yuefeng.

"The headhunting company should have also told you that the salary Dongling High-Tech offers you is an annual salary of 200,000 Hong Kong dollars. Bonuses and year-end bonuses will be issued every year. After the performance is qualified, you will be rewarded with Dongling High-Tech equity in the future!"

An annual salary of 200,000 Hong Kong dollars, according to the current exchange rate, is about 250,000 RMB. Plus bonuses and year-end bonuses, Ren Yuefeng's annual salary will exceed 300,000 to 400,000. If there are equity rewards and dividends in the future, it will certainly be higher.

A professional manager at this price is not low even in Hong Kong, but if you want to introduce such a manager who can formulate a management system and understands both domestic and foreign markets, you really can't introduce him without spending a lot of money.

If you make a horizontal comparison, the annual salary of executives, general managers, and board members of the Sitong Group is generally over one or two million. Compared with this, Ren Yuefeng's cost-effectiveness is very high.

After Ren Yuefeng enters Dongling High-Tech, the wages of Hu Zixian, Zhang Ao, Gao Peng, and others will certainly have to be raised by a large margin. Not fearing scarcity but fearing inequality is the beginning of infighting.

"I will do my best!"

However, after talking about his treatment and salary, signing the contract, and then seeing Dongling High-Tech's next plan, the little smile Ren Yuefeng had managed to squeeze out disappeared without a trace.

"Sell the Shenzhou digital cordless telephone to Europe and North America?!"

"Feiyan Technology Company listing plan?!"

Looking at these plans that were like tiger and wolf words, Ren Yuefeng felt that he had fallen into a pit. He felt that these domestic companies like Dongling High-Tech would not take the usual path, but he didn't expect it to be so sword-leaning and slanting.

"The launch of the Shenzhou digital cordless telephone is too tight. In such a short time, we need to find product spokespersons, agents, promotion, channel stocking. The time is too tight!"

"And Feiyan Technology Company, this is completely an empty shell company. The products are still in research and development. We don't even know how they will sell. How can we ensure it goes public?!"

Ren Yuefeng, who had always been rigorous, felt bad when he saw these things. He felt that this was even more unreliable than a certain famous international director in Hong Kong who wore sunglasses and wrote the script while filming the movie.

"Human effort can achieve anything!"

Li Dongling looked at Ren Yuefeng and poured him a bowl of poisonous chicken soup, "This is a crazy era, isn't it?

Impossible things are all done by people. You can also write history. Dongling High-Tech will fully cooperate with you!"
