Chapter 933: 928. Zhang Sicheng, Who Makes People Look at Him in a New Light (Seeking Subscriptions and Monthly Tickets)

"Manager Zhong's eye for talent is quite good. As far as I know, it was Manager Zhong who personally spearheaded the investment in Rose Mobile back then, right?" Zhang Ran asked with a smile.

Zhong Yu looked at Huang Lin, then at Zhang Ran, unsure why he was asking these things, but he still answered honestly: "I suppose so."

Huang Lin felt a bit dissatisfied. "What do you mean 'suppose so'? It either is or it isn't."

The truth was that when Zhong Yu answered the question, he had actually looked at him first, which made Huang Lin feel quite flustered.

Zhang Ran waved his hand with a smile and said: "It's fine, I was just asking casually."

Huang Lin sighed inwardly and said to Zhong Yu: "Mr. Zhang is very satisfied and very pleased regarding the matter of Rose Mobile."

"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Zhang. Actually, the reason I wanted to acquire that company back then was mainly because their product competitiveness was very strong.

Plus, the foreign Apple Mobile never allowed us to act as their sales agents; they always built their own channels.

That is why I was optimistic about the Rose Mobile business. It was a matter of having no other choice; if Apple Mobile had agreed to let us act as their sales agents, this might not have happened."

Zhong Yu's answer was very sincere, so much so that Zhang Ran couldn't help but chuckle.

"Regardless, these are solid, tangible achievements that no one can erase," Zhang Ran said with a smile.

After complimenting Zhong Yu, Zhang Ran continued to ask: "Manager Zhong, looking at the subsidiaries under Huamei Group now, which ones need to reduce their burden, and which ones need to be strengthened?"

Zhong Yu's heart skipped a beat; he knew the real business had arrived.

Given what had happened before, he didn't dare look at Huang Lin. He just lowered his head to think for a moment before saying: "The group's current development has actually reached a bottleneck, and what our Investment Department needs to do is utilize the group's resources to increase the group's competitiveness and then break through this bottleneck.

We at Huamei are in sales, not technology, so our main direction should be to build Huamei Group into an irreplaceable link."

These words were actually empty talk and didn't really address the question Zhang Ran had asked.

It was just that Zhong Yu only dared to answer this way now; it was truly difficult to answer Zhang Ran's question, and one careless move could really offend someone.

Zhang Ran didn't speak or show any reaction, as if he hadn't noticed, but at this moment, Zhang Sicheng spoke up.

"Manager Zhong, logically speaking, it's not my place to interrupt."

"No, no, please speak freely, President Zhang. I am all ears," Zhong Yu said hurriedly.

This was the Big Boss's eldest son and the future heir to their group; he didn't dare not take him seriously.

Zhang Sicheng said in a deep voice: "Then let me share my perspective. If a company wants to develop, it definitely needs a clear goal.

Although my experience is shallow and I only have a superficial understanding of many things in the business world—one could say that my current achievements are actually due to my father.

I don't deny this point, but regardless, I do understand one principle: if there is no goal, no matter how high-end or sophisticated something is, it cannot bring profit to the company."

This was a serious expression of dissatisfaction, dissatisfaction with Zhong Yu for trying to fool Zhang Ran like this.

However, at this moment, Zhang Ran was truly not angry at Zhong Yu's words, but he was very satisfied with Zhang Sicheng.

He really hadn't expected Zhang Sicheng to be able to speak such words at this time, because it was truly difficult for Zhang Ran to say these things himself, but it was very appropriate for Zhang Sicheng.

The most crucial thing was that Zhang Sicheng also had no psychological resentment toward the career he had built by relying on his father's generation.

This was the most important thing. In fact, what Zhang Ran feared most was that Zhang Sicheng and Siyan would be unable to listen to what others said and have hearts higher than the heavens.

This would be of no benefit to their future.

Accept the facts; at the same time, if one truly has the ability, then do better than Zhang Ran, and if one lacks the ability, at the very least, one can stabilize the empire Zhang Ran has built.

What is to be feared is the type who lacks ability but has a heart higher than the heavens; that would only lead to the ruin of the foundation Zhang Ran built, and they wouldn't even listen to a single word of honest advice.

Huang Lin was also looking at Zhang Sicheng in a daze. He actually understood this point very well, just like his own son, Huang Xunceng.

Huang Xunceng had high aspirations; otherwise, he wouldn't have been unwilling to take over the business, because Huang Xunceng knew that even if he did take over, it would be very difficult to make a greater breakthrough within Huamei Group, and he still wouldn't be able to escape his father's shadow.

He couldn't truly establish his own prestige.

So he chose to seek another path. Although he had Huang Lin's help, at the very least, the career was one he had built himself.

Now that Zhang Sicheng could say these things, it expressed many meanings.

It also made Huang Lin hold Zhang Sicheng in higher regard.

Zhong Yu didn't have such thoughts at this moment; he was startled, then immediately said: "Then let me share my perspective."

He had already gone all out. Now that the eldest young master was dissatisfied with him, if he didn't come up with some concrete points, his future days would not be easy.

"Actually, the thing Huamei Group needs to do most right now is to enhance our competitive strength in after-sales service.

Aside from customers having some attachment to the products themselves, everything else relies on after-sales service to win them over," Zhong Yu said, weighing his words.

Since he had already started speaking, Zhong Yu simply said it all: "Although our Huamei Group's after-sales service is decent now, it hasn't reached the point where they can't do without us.

It's like a customer who wants to buy an air conditioner. Between two companies with the same price and same quality—no, the price is the same, but the other company's quality might be slightly worse.

At this time, the one cooperating with us is that company with slightly worse quality, so we need to do our after-sales service well.

As long as we do this well, then relatively speaking, the probability of the customer choosing the slightly worse quality will be even greater.

This is the influence that after-sales service can bring. To put it simply, if others need two days to report damage and repair, we only need one day, or even within a few hours, someone will definitely come to provide door-to-door service.

This is an absolute advantage. Of course, we still need to bring some companies into our sales platform.

But we can jointly establish an after-sales service company. If our Huamei Group can lead this after-sales company, although the cost might be significant, as long as we have this, we can also completely bind these companies together."

Zhong Yu said a lot, and the most important part was after-sales service. It was very clear that this seemed to be something he had been considering all along, so he spoke in a logical and well-organized manner.

Listening to Zhong Yu's words, Zhang Ran also revealed a thoughtful expression, and even Huang Lin was the same; this really seemed to be a good method.
