How did I become a god

"Old Zhang, try my chef's craftsmanship!" Jing Gao picked up the chopsticks and invited Zhang Yanqi, who was 33 years old at the time, to taste Cantonese morning tea.

The windows of the small restaurant on the second floor are bright and bright, and you can see patches of woods outside, as well as the shape of the villa next door not far away.

Zhang Yanqi's mood was a little agitated, and she said seriously: "Boss Jing, thank you."

For a "killed" executive, the boss can call him to chat with him and bless him for his future, or the boss invites him to meet and chat, or the boss invites him to dinner and sees him off. This is a completely different standard of treatment.

He is very satisfied now.

In fact, Zhang Yanqi didn't know that Jing Gao didn't pay much attention to this meeting in his heart.Chen Qingshuang, the housekeeper of the villa, reported it to him in the afternoon, and he didn't think of dealing with it until night when he was reading with Weiwei.

He estimated that Zhang Yanqi's removal might have objections and would cause trouble for his former assistant Jing Shufeng, so he decided to meet Zhang Yanqi and speak up: Don't make trouble for me!

As a godly hero, he doesn't pay much attention to Uber's stock price and market value.But after all, it is the core enterprise of the Phoenix Group, so he is still willing to maintain a stable transition.

Of course, work belongs to work.In life, Jing Gao is not a domineering and domineering person.

Jing Gao smiled, picked up chopsticks and steamed chicken feet with black bean sauce, slightly sweet, drank sweet soy milk, and opened up the conversation: "I have visited all major cities in China over the years, and I still like this kind of breakfast when it comes to breakfast. Cantonese-style morning tea, with exquisite portions, many dishes, and various recipes and tastes. It is suitable for all ages, both north and south.

But I didn't make it so complicated at home. I ate the breakfast style of Beijing and Taizhou.Lao Zhang, how do you usually solve breakfast at home? "

He and Weiwei lived in a courtyard next to the Forbidden City, and there was Sister Chen and a nanny at home.Other chores and purchases are handled by Qin Qingqiu's team.

As for Yuntu Villa, there are two shifts of chefs, a total of four top chef teams.Responsible for entertaining guests and eating three meals a day for everyone in the villa.There are three restaurants on the first floor of the main building alone, and two restaurants (two) on the second floor for Jing Gao's private banquet.

Nearly tens of millions of dollars are spent on chef salaries every year.

Zhang Yanqi ate rice rolls, and said: "Usually both of us are busy at home, so we just take a bite. Soak some oatmeal with milk and add a fried egg. Or make a cup of coffee and make some bread with the toaster."

Jing Gao asked: "Did you hire a babysitter? You have been working in Uber for so many years, so it shouldn't be short of the cost?"

Zhang Yanqi smiled wryly and said, "It's hard to find a suitable nanny." Speaking of which, he is considered an upstart on the Internet.It is difficult to find a suitable nanny for some wealthy families who have been rich for generations.

"That's really too simple. You still have to eat a good breakfast! Don't believe the comments on the Internet that Western food is good and in line with nutrition, and Chinese food is not good! This is the intrusion of typical cultural views." Jing Gao said bluntly: "Go on What are your plans when you come down?"

Zhang Yanqi said calmly: "Boss Jing, I'll follow your arrangement!"

When he received the resignation notice from the group, he was very angry.When I received a phone call from Mr. Jing to invite me to meet, I felt much better. I felt that the efforts I had made in Uber over the years were worth it.But when he came to the capital, he felt that Mr. Jing attached great importance to him, and his mood was much calmer.

He knew it was impossible to stay at Uber, and he didn't think about going back.So this will be very calm!Boss, you can arrange it whatever you want.

Jing Gao was slightly taken aback.He has a fart arrangement for Zhang Yanqi!He is quite dissatisfied with Zhang Yanqi's series of operations in Uber: domineering, internal fighting, mediocre ability!He didn't think much of Zhang Yanqi's level, and this was just "opening up".The severance compensation that should be given shall be given in accordance with the law.Nothing else.

Zhang Yanqi's "listening to the arrangement" made him a little confused.I don't know which part of the information transmission is wrong.

Others said so obediently, could he deny it to his face and say, "I have no arrangements for you."

I can't hold back this face.

After pondering for a few seconds, Jing Gao decided to give him a chance.After all, there are too few people in his pocket.He is still willing to give a chance to have a subordinate who is close and convinced to listen to the arrangement.It's not enough to be a big official in the frontier, but it's okay to be a guard and a magistrate.The examiner said: "Old Zhang, tell us about your gains and losses in the past year in Uber. I'll listen to your opinion."

Zhang Yanqi stopped drinking the porridge spoon, feeling very strange, he knew that Jing would never keep him in Uber again.The personnel adjustment of a listed company is not a child's play, it needs to be announced.Moreover, Uber is a core member of the Phoenix Group, which is a very prudent matter.

But strange as it is, Uber's problems are all in his head, something that can be opened with a mouthful.

"Boss Jing, then I'm telling the truth."

Jing Gao nodded: "Well, the speaker is not guilty."

Zhang Yanqi wiped her mouth with a paper towel, sat upright on her side and faced Jing Gao, and said, "Mr. Jing, in my opinion, Uber's current profits are not high, and its stock price is sluggish. There are three problems. First, Too much emphasis on brand reputation, popularly speaking, is reputation, which leads to too much profit sharing and insufficient competitiveness.

What is the essence of Internet business?It is to monopolize the market, so that users have no choice but to choose my service.Then raise the price to cut leeks!Earn back all the money burned earlier.

What we Uber has done in this regard is quite insufficient.Although I am the top person in charge of Uber, the people below often use the corporate culture of 'user experience' to persuade me.I also can't reverse the current problem.

Second, our Phoenix Group has made too many enemies, and we have to do everything by ourselves.For example: takeaway, long and short video, payment, social (meager), cloud, games, etc., making it difficult to open our ecosystem.

In my vision, what is our biggest advantage at Uber?It is a shareholder in all aspects of the Internet!We can negotiate various cooperation with major enterprises.For example, we can discuss taxi discounts with Tencent in Shenzhen City.Isn't this better than giving benefits to consumers?What is the demand within Tencent?

However, due to our poor relationship with major Internet companies, Alibaba eventually sold our shares, and Tencent did not negotiate this cooperation.

Third, although Uber still monopolizes the national online car-hailing market, we are not without competitors.Ali started Gaode taxi, as well as Shenzhou, Dida, Shouqi car-hailing, Caocao travel and so on.And Liu Qing and Cheng Wei's Hua Xiaozhu Taxi Taxi.

These competitors are deeply involved in the segmented field of online car-hailing and compete with us.We are deeply surrounded by competitors, just like an elephant surrounded by wolves. We can no longer use Uber to fight with one brand, but should differentiate more subdivided brands, or even operate independently. Subsidiaries to fight!

Fourth, the momentum of internationalization is insufficient.The domestic online car-hailing market has been seized by us, and there are still a large number of overseas markets!Such as North America, Southeast Asia, India and other large markets.Now the entire decision-making level of the group is too conservative.I called several times to report it, but it was not approved.

Take a look at our fellow uber's global conquest of cities and territories, all kinds of popular and spicy food.I'm about to die.But nothing works.

Since Uber is a listed company, without the injection of external funds, it is too difficult to get rid of the entanglement of domestic competitors while moving forward under the group's conservative strategy. "

Jing Gao couldn't help laughing when he heard this, after all, he had a problem with me!
It is not allowed to enter the North American market, this is his decision.Nima, Huawei's chief financial officer was detained by Maple Leaf Country.How dare he let his executives develop such a market.Let alone Europe, the old Europeans still recognize American products.

As for India, (An) Xiaoqian's Coolpad phone was just fined by the Indian department.There are no business rules in that place, it's pure hooliganism.To put it bluntly, it is just one sentence: India makes money and spends it in India, so don't even think about turning it back home.

The market in Nanyang is actually being developed.But not in the name of Uber to capture the market.Others are protected by the market.Participation can only be made in the form of investment and equity participation.So it seems that there is indeed a gap between Uber's business landscape and Uber, the leader of its peers.The performance in the capital market is particularly obvious.

Uber is already preparing to list on the New York Stock Exchange, with Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs as issuers.The expected valuation is $1200 billion.Of course, this will squeeze the water.Who doesn't understand the way Wall Street plays?

There is also Lyft, a taxi-hailing app in overseas markets, which is also expected to be listed in the near future, with a valuation of US$250 billion.

Jing Gao tapped the table lightly with his fingers.
