Our Glamorous Time

Chapter Twelve

Nearly two o'clock in the afternoon, Lin Qian prepared the meeting materials and sent them to Li Zhicheng.

Some surprises-he stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows and meditated.

Lin Qian put the data down, and just wanted to turn around, he heard his clear voice coming: "You join me in the meeting."

After she was stunned, her heart was filled with joy and her face remained quiet: "Okay."

This kind of confidential and important strategic meeting, he let her participate, it means trust.

Ha ha ha... Although BOSS is young and inexperienced, he still knows how to use it.

——

In the meeting room, the lights were bright, and there were eight people sitting at the long oak bronze colored conference table, namely Li Zhicheng, Gu Yanzhi, the vice president in charge of production technology, the vice president in charge of the functional department, and the marketing director and production director. And financial director and purchasing director.

This is also the core management team of Ada today.

Li Zhicheng sat in the middle position. Of course, Lin Qian could not sit at the round table, but on a chair leaning against the wall at the rear.

The meeting was chaired by Gu Yanzhi. Although the discussion was a very serious topic, his attitude was quite relaxed and indifferent. After looking around for a week, he said in a hurry: "Then let's start, I will say a few words. Today's meeting is to discuss our love To reach the future direction. What is the situation now, you are more clear than me and Li. President Li took over the company not long ago, the goals and requirements of today's meeting are: seeking truth from facts, full discussion, unified direction, and strict implementation. Well, the finance department first Say."

In the conference room quietly, Lin Qian heard a little excitement-I didn’t expect Gu Yanzhi to talk about this kind of "mandarin", but after carefully pondering, you found that each of his words was on the idea. .

Take another look at BOSS's complexion-very calm and focused. He was just sitting in a pile of middle-aged men in suits and leather shoes, and he looked too handsome and too young.

At this time, the financial director has opened the slide. After a brief overview, he cut into the theme and also dropped a bombshell: "We have calculated it. After paying all the compensation for the "carcinogen incident", we calculated Accounts receivable and payables, etc... The funds that can be flexibly mobilized by the entire group in the short term are probably--" He paused: "2-5 million yuan."

The meeting room was suddenly quiet, and everyone looked at each other. Lin Qian also shivered. She spread it on a soft leather book on her knees, and the number "10 million" was written in the upper left corner. Now she silently crossed out this number and changed it to 2 million.

It turned out that the situation was worse than her brother expected.

2 million. What can 2 million do in this day and age? Not to mention a company with thousands of people.

She couldn't help but looked up at Li Zhicheng again. I saw him sitting upright, with one hand on the table, his face slightly tilted up, looking at the financial controller's speech, but he was very calm.

Lin Qian's head popped up two days ago when the mighty team sent him to the company when he took office.

Compared with each other, suddenly felt a little sympathy for him.

After a dull and embarrassing quiet in the room for a while, the marketing director spoke.

He is a capable man in his forties, named Xue Mingtao, who looks calm and elegant. Lin Qian understands his situation: When the former CEO marched abroad, an old minister like Xue Mingtao was not reused, but instead was aloof. Now that he has changed his dynasty, he has regained the power of marketing. Suffocating for so long, it is bound to be ready to try to fight a marketing turnaround.

Sure enough, he put forward a very perfect marketing system work plan.

He started from the company's four categories of high-end leather bags, daily leisure bags, special function bags and box bags, and at the same time refined to more than ten sub-categories, analyzing the current market environment, the advantages and disadvantages of our competitors and our competitors. Contrast, internal improvement methods, marketing strategies and plans. For example, if the quality of the men’s mountaineering bag is not too hard, it is proposed to change the product material and strengthen quality control; and for example, if the marketing of the trolley case terminal is not enough, it is proposed to increase advertising investment and increase the sales team...

I have to say that this is a very detailed plan. If you don’t have years of marketing experience and a good understanding of the entire market and company sales, you can’t do it. This plan feels like a map with directions, with overall goals and plans, and detailed to the implementation of each single product. After listening, it made me feel very at ease.

Marketing work is the core of a company like Aida, and the focus of this meeting. So after he talked eloquently, several other managers whispered and discussed in a low voice, the atmosphere was obviously activated.

Gu Yanzhi also smiled faintly on the face, nodding frequently towards marketing director Xue Mingtao. Even Li Zhicheng picked up the paper materials and read them carefully page by page while listening. Lin Qian also saw him make some records on it with a pen.

And Lin Qian's feeling is also very taught, like being taught a lesson.

She was even ready to move, hoping that Xue Mingtao would mention the Mingsheng Group project to verify that her previous ideas were correct.

But no. After making a complete report, Xue Mingtao's concluding remark was: "In the next five years, rebuild the Ada marketing empire!"

Everyone nodded, Lin Qian was slightly disappointed.

The meeting room was quiet for a while. Everyone was a little thoughtful, and some people secretly looked at Li Zhicheng, wanting to see the new young president. What specific views do you have on such a most reliable development plan so far? .

At this moment, he put down the materials in his hand and looked up at everyone.

So everyone's eyes naturally focused on him.

"Good plan." He said slowly, "I will read it again carefully."

There was a flash of joy on Xue Mingtao's face. Lin Qian gave a compliment in his heart: BOSS has momentum! Indifferent.

Who knows Li Zhicheng remarked: "Someone suggested to me that taking down the Mingsheng Group project can save Aida. What do you think?" When he said this, he was very handsome and relaxed, and his expression was calm.

Lin Qian, behind him, gently "giggled" in his heart, and his heart beat faster.

Someone... just mean her.

Xue Mingtao was quiet for a second, and found a report from the folder on the table and handed it to Li Zhicheng: "Li, President, the Mingsheng Group project, we have also done SWOT analysis. This project is of course very good. If you can win, you can quickly Changing Ada's position in the industry can also open up a new market.

But to be honest, this project has two powerful competitors, Xinbaorui and Simeiqi. We did not intervene at all in the early stage, but they have been with each other for a few months, and the connections are almost the same. We have never been involved in the field of state-owned enterprise customers before, but now we want to compete and have a low chance of success. Moreover, they are very defensive against us now, even if they can get the project, I think it is a terrible victory. The profit is very thin or there is no profit. "

Li Zhicheng was silent.

Although Lin Qian was only a role in the record, Xue Mingtao's words made her feel great pressure. Indeed, she had only considered the benefits of this project before and could save Aida, so the idea is still optimistic. And Xue Mingtao mentioned these practical difficulties, and she did not think about it, almost all of them are the dead spots of marketing work: late start, no network, no funds, what to fight with others?

At this time, the silent vice president in charge of production and technology spoke.

He is nearly fifty years old and is called Liu Tong. He was the No. 1 hero and veteran who followed Chairman Xu Yong's fight against Jiangshan. To Li Zhicheng, he did not have the caution and temptation of other people. His expression was frank, even with the majesty of some elders.

"Zhicheng." He said, "I don't agree with any other Mingsheng project to expand into new market areas. Isn't Ada broken down by this kind of thinking? Do we have to repeat the same mistake? We are doing luggage, the biggest Market is in the hundreds of millions of end consumers across the country, and this market has been snatched away, and we will grab it back. Those government and enterprise purchases are basically ridiculous and require high profits but low profits. I disagree. I agree that Tao’s view is down to earth, and the market is back up!"

He was honest and straightforward, and he was straight and firm, and someone nodded again and again after listening. Indeed what he said was exactly what everyone thought.

Lin Qing heard two beautiful brows frowning tightly.

Liu Tong fired at Li Zhicheng, but Li Zhicheng remained silent. He didn't talk as if he was already imposing, and now people don't even know what he thinks, and the atmosphere at the scene is a little bit stiff.

Lin Qian heard. Gu Yanzhi looked at everyone, and exchanged glances with the vice president in charge of the functional department.

The vice-president opened the round and said: "If I suggest this, we will always hear our opinions. What is the focus of the next step and in what direction-or will Mr. Li comprehensively consider and discuss later ?"

Everyone nodded one after another, Lin Qing thought: This can only be done.

So everyone looked at Li Zhicheng, Liu Tong was right and wrong, and said: "I speak straight, sincere, you must think carefully."

However, no one expected that Li Zhicheng nodded to Liu Tong, and then looked back at the crowd. His voice was low like the still water: "I don't need to think about it."

Lin Qian suddenly froze. Not only her but everyone was startled.

He listened to him and said, "I have a decision at noon today: take down the Mingsheng project at all costs."

——

in the afternoon.

Lin Qian sat in his cubicle, sorting out the minutes of the meeting just now. But inexplicably upset.

Just because Li Zhicheng just said at the highest decision-making meeting: "At noon today, I already have a decision."

The focus is on "noon today". At that time they were eating hot pot, and she urged him to win the Mingsheng project.

Can it be understood that it was her words that had an important influence on him?

Lin Qian was excited and felt the pressure was unprecedented.

Moreover, his attitude of standing out from the crowd has undoubtedly made the atmosphere on the spot a little weird. Liu Tong's face changed on the spot, Xue Mingtao did not say anything, and the executive vice president was also shocked.

However, before everyone spoke, he even said: "The company is in a period of turmoil, and we have to work together. Now I am a representative of the absolute controlling party and have a veto. So in the future, before I make a decision, there can be countless voices. ; After I make a decision, there can be only one voice. The meeting is closed."

...

At this moment, the door of his office was tightly covered, and Gu Yanzhi and Liu Tong just entered. I don't know what the three big brothers were discussing. At first, I could hear Liu Tong's fierce voice. At this time, there was no voice at all.

After a while, the door finally opened. Lin Qian stood up immediately, and saw Liu Tong come out with a sullen face, Gu Yanzhi followed him with a calm look. I couldn't see the emotions of the two. They ignored Lin Qian and went back to their offices.

Lin Qian waited for a while before picking up the sorted meeting minutes and going to Li Zhicheng.

There is no doubt that his performance at the meeting today will set off an uproar in the company. How would managers and employees evaluate him?

j□j, j□j, impersonal?

Or will you be determined, have your own independent ideas, and be very confident?

For Lin Qiang, his cold and silent appearance would be so strong and decisive, a bit beyond her expectations.

——

The setting sun was already slanting, smearing a faint golden glow in the office.

Li Zhicheng was sitting in the middle of the sofa. It's a little different from the usual cold and unpretentious posture. At this time, his hands are resting on his knees, his face is quiet and he seems to be thinking. On the coffee table in front, there were still two steaming teacups, apparently left by Liu Tong and Gu Yanzhi.

Lin Qian walked past lightly: "Boss, this is the minutes of the meeting."

He glanced at her, his eyes dark and steady, took the minutes, and looked down.

The room was quiet, except for the sound of turning pages, and the gurgling sound of water in the goldfish tank at the door. Lin Qian was somewhat embarrassed, but began to speak.

Her opening remark was: "Today, after listening to the opinions of President Xue and President Liu, I also feel quite profound and reasonable..."

Li Zhicheng looked up at her again. With such a close distance, his outline became clearer and more handsome, and his eyes were cold and cold: "Shaken?"

Lin Qiang suddenly realized that although this BOSS talked to people was very concise, but all of them directly and quickly pointed out the key points. You always have to slow down before you can cope.

She originally wanted to speak a little more euphemistically. Now she simply frankly and shook her head: "No, I haven't shaken. What I want to say is that their analysis is very comprehensive and reasonable. But this kind of thinking is too focused on the internal, how to solve the problem. , How to improve yourself. But now the external competitive environment is fierce, and the industry has developed to the present, it is not more than ten years ago. It is not that your product quality is good, and the quality of the personnel is improved, you will definitely win the market. Because people also do very well it is good.

The reason why I insist on targeting the Mingsheng project is not because I think this project will succeed. But I think that sticking to the traditional set will definitely not work. To make an inappropriate analogy, if Xinbaorui and Simeiqi are now elephants, Aida is just a lamb. Can a lamb overcome an elephant by improving itself? I don't think it can. It can only win if it shows a surprise attack. "

She spoke very eloquently and straightened her chest. After the lecture, he looked at Li Chengcheng.

And he kept staring at her with staring eyes, and the handsome face was always calm and cold.

For her long article, he answered only three words:

"I believe you."
