Top of the big era

The next day, go to the company.

In the morning, Zhou Buqi held three meetings in a row, a financial meeting, a strategic meeting, and a meeting to strengthen supervision and review. I also sat in on seven more meetings, including the Weidian Search Mobile Group, Ziwei Cloud, WeChat Moments, the new upgrade of the gold coin wallet system, the adjustment of UC business, etc.

It wasn't until noon that I finally relaxed.

The renovation of the kitchen and dining room in the chairman's office has been completed. The kitchen and dining room have been opened up and the area is larger. A large table can be set up for the young secretaries of the board of directors' office to come and have a meal together.

Among them, Han Yalan, the newly hired intern secretary, was the first time Zhou Buqi met her. His first impression was very good. She didn’t have the pointy chin. Her face was round and fair, and she seemed to have a bit of a former self. What Xue Baoshan looked like in a few years.

Ning Lu told Zhou Buqi privately that her grades were actually very bad. She had failed too many subjects and might not even be able to get her diploma. It is said that I chose the wrong major and failed to adjust my major. As a result, I rarely took classes in my major and failed too many courses.

A large table with more than a dozen people sat down to have lunch together.

This is done by inviting chefs to come to the kitchen of the office to cook specially.

For those little secretaries who have not gone on a business trip abroad with the big boss, it is definitely a feast for the eyes.

While eating, Yan Qiqi raised her hand and said she had something important to report.

It turned out that Lianjia’s financing was coming to an end.

It was Liu Qing who came forward to contact him.

very easy.

The Lian family is short of money now, but can't find investors. If you have the money, it would be great, but you are not qualified to choose. When they heard that Boss Zhou was interested in investing, everyone in the Lian family was inexplicably excited.

Originally, it was to dilute 10% of the shares to get 100 million yuan at the valuation price of the Series A round.

But when you meet such a big benefactor, how can you let him go so easily?

After a brief negotiation, Lianjia proposed an offer of 200 million yuan for diluting 20% ​​of the shares. Liu Qing did not respond and transferred the matter to the Dong Office, which then fell to Yan Qiqi and Zhao Li Muge.

Yan Qiqi said: "Senior, if you want to get 20% of the shares, there is an additional condition!"

Zhou Buqi smiled, "What are the conditions?"

Yan Qiqi said crisply: "They want you to help them sort out the context of online development. Lianjia used to be a physical business, an offline real estate agency. It only started to transform a few years ago and launched Lianjia Online Network also proposed a plan for a housing dictionary. However, they did not have people who really understood the Internet, and many of their ideas could not be realized."

Zhou Buqi nodded, "This is the trouble that many traditional companies encounter when transitioning to online. Doing Internet business is actually not difficult. The difficult thing is that you have to have an Internet mindset."

Zhao Li Muge chuckled and said: "I know that the core point of Internet thinking is talent thinking."

Zhou Buqi had already noticed that among the 10 little secretaries in the new secretariat, the most talented one was Zhao Li Muge, and the school girl Yan Qiqi was also pretty good.

Encouraged by the big boss's eyes, Zhao Li Muge bit his lips and said in a low voice: "I think... I think the biggest problem of Lianjia now is not the lack of a leader to transform to online business, but the ownership structure. ."

Zhou Buqi smiled and said, "Be brave and just say it?"

Zhao Li Muge said loudly: "Boss Zuo of Lianjia is so stingy that he doesn't even give employees shares. Now, 90% of Lianjia's shares are in the hands of Boss Zuo, and 10% are in the hands of Dinghui, the investor in the Series A round. In the hands of capital. If you want to attract real Internet talents, salary alone is not enough, you must also provide equity.”

"Okay! Well said!"

Mai Feixue wanted to applaud, but found that everyone else was staring at her, so she didn't dare to speak out. She made a gesture of applause with her two small hands, but there was no applause at all.

Zhou Buqi nodded, "In general, you are right, but there is one key point that needs to be added. People at different levels will have different pursuits. To attract Internet talents, it is necessary to give money and shares. , but there is another more important point, the Internet is about dreaming. In the process of dreaming, I should not let others help me create my dream, but invite others to come over and let us dream together."

"partner!"

Zhao Li Muge blurted out the topic immediately.

Gu Zanli didn't want to be a mute. She had to seize the opportunity to express herself on such occasions, so she said in a pleasant way: "Boss, it's just like when you started your business? There are some things that you can handle alone, but you can't do it alone." If you do it, find someone else to do it with you, that’s what you call a partner.”

Zhou Buqi laughed and said, "Absolutely."

This is inconvenient to tell the little secretaries who are more vases-like.

There is actually a talent cultivation process here.

People grow up little by little. People like Guo Pengfei, Meng Houkun, Xue Baoshan, Zhen Yu, Xu Baihui, and Chen Dong were all influential figures in major universities and were all outstanding leaders.

However, after all, they are just college students who have not left school. How good can they be?

With Zhou Buqi's overwhelming cognitive advantage over these people at that time, he could completely intimidate everyone and give them away without giving them a share, just giving them some salary.

You can make them willing to start a business with you.

When it comes to deceiving people, Zhou Buqi is not bad at all.

However, this cannot be done in the long run.

Nor is it likely to have much success.

If you don’t give them shares or the status of a partner, they will always be a worker...and once they are limited to the status of a worker, the person’s ability, level and perspective will be solidified. They will block their way up as if they are self-enclosed.

That's such a shame.

They are all influential figures in various universities and the most outstanding among their peers. They should have a bigger stage to show their talents.

Just like educating children.

If you say that he is stupid, he will naturally become resistant and not like learning. The more you encourage him to be smart, the more he will like the sense of accomplishment that knowledge brings and the more he will love learning.

The way Zhou Buqi treated people like Guo Pengfei, Meng Houkun, and Xu Baihui back then was to open up a path for them to rise. What he gives is not shares and partner status, but an encouragement and a responsibility.

Everyone considers themselves an entrepreneur. They are constantly learning, growing, and improving themselves, and only then do they have the ability to stand alone today.

If Zhou Buqi had been so stingy back then and not given any shares to them, it would have been doomed.

It is impossible for these people in the "Ten Schools Entrepreneurship Alliance" to grow and improve their abilities so quickly. What will happen next is that the industrial landscape of "Ziwei Galaxy" will not be as grand as it is today.

This is the same as working for the production team and not having enough to eat every year; after the household responsibility system, there was a bumper harvest every year.

People are still the same people.

But people's hearts have changed.

When working for the production team, I can't even use 50% of my strength; after the household quota is guaranteed, I can farm for myself, and I can use 200% of my strength.

Zhou Buqi had never told them similar principles before.

In fact, there is no need to talk about it.

Nowadays, they are all bosses, and they have to train their subordinates to find partners... and they understand some of Boss Zhou's good intentions back then.

In other words, the more successful people like Guo Pengfei, Zhang Yiming, Ma Pingshan, Chen Dong, and Meng Houkun become, the more they will feel that Boss Zhou is standing tall.

Looking at the current troubles Lianjia is encountering, Zhao Li Muge is right when he says that Lianjia has no shares or partners.

But this is just an appearance.

Even if we don’t split shares, don’t recruit partners, and offer an annual salary of 100 million, we can always find top Internet talents to help.

However, this nature is wrong.

In this model, the top Internet talent is working part-time for someone else's company. It would be good if he can use 50% of his abilities.

If it fails to use its full potential, Lianjia’s transformation may fail.

If he is a partner and works for himself, then 100% of his abilities are not enough. He will desperately learn and grow quickly until he reaches 200%.

In this way, Lianjia's housing agency business will be able to successfully transform from offline to online.

The world is for public and private.

Selfishness is at the core of human nature.

Internet entrepreneurship is inherently difficult and dangerous. If you go against human nature, even gods can't save you.

Boss Zuo of Lianjia obviously doesn’t know much about the Internet.

Zhou Buqi looked at Sun Wanran next to him, "Do you have anything going on this afternoon?"

Sun Wanran said with a smile: "If you are here, there will be a lot of things for you, but if you are not there, there will be nothing."

Zhou Buqi waved his hand and said, "Then contact Mr. Zuo of the Lian family and I'll talk to him."

At this time, he saw the beautiful eyes of Yan Qiqi and Zhao Li Muge full of expectation, and said with a smile: "Qiqi, Muge, are you two free this afternoon?"

"available!"

Zhao Li Muge and Yan Qiqi spoke in unison. Their crisp voices were very pleasant, and they were excited and couldn't hide their excitement.

Zhou Buqi said: "Okay, I'm going to see Boss Zuo in the afternoon, you two should follow me!"

On the other side, Sun Wanran had put down his chopsticks and stood up to make contact.

She first contacted Liu Qing.

Liu Qing contacted Boss Zuo again and received a positive response. Then, Boss Zuo called Sun Wanran again and enthusiastically explained the arrangements for the afternoon.

Have time!

As long as it is convenient for Mr. Zhou, it can be done anytime!

Of course Sun Wanran would not be polite to him. There was a third-rank official in front of the prime minister's door. "Okay, Mr. Zuo, can we meet at the Wangfu Teahouse on the east side of the Ziweixing headquarters campus at two o'clock in the afternoon?"

Boss Zuo looked at the time and saw that there were still two hours left, which was enough for him to prepare. He quickly said: "No problem! No problem! I will be there on time!"

Sun Wanran smiled and said, "Okay, I'll report it to our boss and I won't disturb Mr. Zuo."

Boss Zuo said quickly: "Assistant Sun, wait a moment."

"Um?"

"Um...well, Assistant Sun, does Mr. Zhou have any hobbies?"

"Well……"

Sun Wanran almost blurted out the word "woman".

Boss Zuo said cautiously: "Mr. Zhou likes to play calligraphy and painting? I have some pretty good collections at home..."

Sun Wanran couldn't help laughing, and said with a chuckle: "Mr. Zuo, you are too polite, you don't need anything. My boss is free, you will know when you meet him, there are not so many rules, just come over, he wants to talk to you about the Internet With your understanding and investment in Lianjia, you don’t need to prepare anything.”
