Feng Yiping took on the role of a waiter, pulling Jinling's suitcase behind her. 'Your parents are quite amiable,'
'That's right, and it doesn't matter who their parents are!'
'I can't stand you, you're so arrogant,' Jinling laughed and shook her head.
'President Jin, Yiping,' Gao Zhiyi and Li Jia, the woman was pretty, and the man... plump, dressed in light clothing, stood hand in hand in front of the hotel and greeted them.
Gao Zhiyi had had a hard time in the past two years, and such meetings inevitably involved him, the de facto head of the office. As for Li Jia being here, it was a perk arranged for him.
'Brother Gao, you have a great body,' Feng Yiping looked at him a few times and then at Li Jia a few times. "If you go on like this, you'll become a cast-off one day. For your sake, and for the sake of your future with Li Jia, it seems that you'll have to be given more tasks. How can you not lose weight?'
'My Gao is fine just the way he is, but what about you? Can you get through today?'
Everyone knew what was going on today. "No one knows about Jingping but you. You must be fine.'
So far, Lao Cai, Xiong Yuliang and Zhou Xinyu have not arrived. Hong Haoran has gone to the beach with his wife, Ding Qiang has gone to the city with his wife, Zhang Bixing from the logistics company said he was going to the seafood market, and Xu Bin is the worst off. He is still busy perfecting his work plan. What's even worse is that Feng Yiping will give him another task tomorrow.
The magazine is about to launch, and Bao Zhuoyuan is now in a hurry. He and the magazine were absent from this meeting.
In fact, this meeting was not complicated. Among all the companies, except for the furniture factory and Jiasheng Decoration, the others are actually solely owned by Feng Yiping. Although he is preparing to set up a head office this time, he is not planning to set up a board of directors at this level.
The furniture factory in Shenzhen is only 10% owned by Lao Cai, the decoration company is 40% owned by his brother-in-law, and the town's furniture factory has four shareholders: the village owns 10%, his brother-in-law also owns 10%, Lao Cai owns 25%, and the rest belongs to Feng Yiping. It is sufficient to establish a board of directors at the company level for these companies.
The convenience store is preparing for an IPO in the future, as is the budget hotel. The noodle restaurant is also working towards that goal. If we integrate all these businesses now, it will be more trouble to split them up again when we go public in the future. It's better to keep them loosely connected.
Besides, the direction of development has already been set for both furniture factories and the decoration company. And both Cai and his brother-in-law have full trust in Feng Yiping, so there is no need for the board of directors to supervise the direction of development.
To be honest, this matter is mainly about Feng Yiping trying to reduce his workload. The team at the head office is actually his office. Of course, objectively speaking, setting up a head office can also coordinate the relationship between each company and optimise resource allocation.
However, it is easier said than done. Setting up an organisation is one thing, but the main problem is the personnel appointment at the head office. The president is Jin Ling, and originally Zhou Xinyu seemed like a suitable candidate for vice president, but in that case, there would be two from Youjia, which is obviously not appropriate.
Moreover, the current business is mainly concentrated in three places: the provincial capital, Shenzhen, and the capital. Therefore, Mei Yiliang, who is often in the provincial capital, was appointed vice president. In Shenzhen, although there is only one factory at present, Feng Yiping plans to increase investment there in the future, so Lao Cai became the other vice president.
The finance and human resources departments have not changed much either, mainly playing a role in summarising and supervising the next level.
Another relatively big change is that Feng Yiping proposed the establishment of a sales department at the head office level, which will be responsible for the sales of all companies. Now, whether it is the software company, the furniture factory, the metal products factory, or the decoration company, they are actually all working together to develop business, and it is better to establish such a department. The head of this department will be Wang Zhiqiang, the former sales manager of Zhitong Company.
When Zhitong was first established, a lot of investment was put in, but as the foundation was consolidated, the main products were gradually improved, and there was no need for additional investment. In particular, thanks to Wang Zhiqiang's efforts, Zhitong's sales this year have been very encouraging. If we look at the input-output ratio, Zhitong is the best company, and this trend will continue in the next few years.
It really is true that the software industry is a highly profitable industry, and it's no wonder that Bill Gates has been the richest man in the world for so many years.
Feng Yiping has also informed everyone of the personnel arrangements, for example, Zhou Xinyu. After Jin Ling was promoted to president, he also took on the role of general manager of Youjia. He is only the second in command, but he has contributed a lot over the years, and Feng Yiping is worried that he might have a problem with this.
Fortunately, Zhou Xingyu is open-minded. Sooner or later, Jin Ling will have to leave Youjia. Then he will not only be the general manager of Youjia, but will also definitely be able to take on the role of vice president, because from the current situation, among all the companies, Youjia has the highest sales, and this year it will exceed 100 million yuan.
Jin Ling and Gao Zhiyi double-checked the documents that would be sent to everyone in advance that evening, and then they had to finalise the arrangements for the meeting the next day, including the schedule, the venue rental, etc. Feng Yiping was still thinking about Huang Jingping, who was facing a family crisis. 'I'll leave it to you all, I don't care about everyone's lunch, I have to go back.'
'We're all adults, don't worry about things like meals, go ahead, help Jingping out a bit more,' Jin Ling was also worried about her.
In the capital these days, the relationship between Jin Ling and Huang Jingping has developed well. Although there is a big age difference, Jin Ling seems to treat Huang Jingping like a younger sister, but in fact they are developing in the direction of becoming best friends.
The villa is not as boring as Feng Yiping imagined. Mei Jianzhong and Feng Zhanchang are lying on deck chairs under the coconut trees, leisurely blowing in the sea breeze. Each of them has a glass of coconut juice in hand. Feng Yiping's brother-in-law is accompanying Hui Hui, building a castle on the beach.
Inside, Huang Jingping and her mother were playing cards in the foyer. The French doors were open, and you could see the blue sea dozens of metres away. It was very peaceful.
Feng Yiping looked around. The atmosphere was very harmonious. In just a short while, Huang Jingping had successfully integrated herself. She was laughing and chatting with her mother, sister-in-law and sister, looking very comfortable.
'Any luck?' Feng Yiping asked.
'Ah, you're back! Is everything arranged over there?' Huang Jingping smiled at him.
'I don't need to arrange anything, Gao Zhiyi is there.'
'Don't worry, we haven't eaten Jingping!' Mei Qiuping said to her son, pretending to be angry.
'Mom, are you jealous?' Feng Yuxuan laughed as she leaned on her mother's shoulder.
She was in the perfect position, and sure enough, Mei Qiuping handed her five chestnuts. 'Then you should find someone early too, so I can be jealous.'
Feng Yuxuan rubbed her head affectingly. 'Auntie, Jingping, you've all seen it, my mother is biased. I'm all grown up now, and she still beats me a lot. And look at Yiping, after all these years, have you ever laid a finger on him, Mum?'
'Sigh, who are we to be daughters, born without the preciousness of a son.' Cai Hong also pretended to be indignant for Feng Yuxuan.
'Who says so? Jingping is very precious.'
Huang Jingping has only two sisters at home, and Mei Qiuping was afraid that she would think too much about what Cai Hong had said.
Cai Hong also felt that she had said the wrong thing, 'Jingping, don't mind it, I was just joking!'
'Actually, I think so too. When I was little, my grandparents liked those cousins better,' Huang Jingping also laughed.
'Yes, when we were little, Grandma would always find something good to give him to eat, while we granddaughters got nothing,' Feng Yuxuan agreed.
'It doesn't matter if they like you or not, as long as I like you now!' Feng Yiping walked up behind Huang Jingping and stroked her hair.
'Mom, look, this is your favourite son. He hasn't even married yet and already he's forgotten his mother. I can see that in the future you'll only be able to rely on me, your unloved daughter,'
'Sister, if you're so capable, say that sentence again louder, so Grandpa and Dad can hear.'
'Fine, I will. It's true,' she said, leaning over the table and whispering, 'I think Grandpa feels the same way. He likes his grandchildren the best, and the girls are really not as good as the boys. Ah, Mom, don't hit me,'
she said before she saw Mei Qiuping about to give her a few more shocks, and quickly hid towards Cai Hong.
'In the hearts of parents, daughters and sons are the same. In the past, the generation of my grandfather and their generation placed a bit more emphasis on sons, but once they grew up, they might love their granddaughters even more because they are obedient, considerate and well-behaved. Jingping, don't you agree?'
'Yes, my grandfather quite likes me now.'
'But it seems that Grandpa still likes Yiping more than he likes me.'
Haha, sister, this resentment of yours, it seems that you really can't let it go for a while.
