Chapter 3 2. Chairman Kangxi's troubles

Wei Xiaobao had great ambitions when he was young, and he always wanted to buy Lichunyuan and expand it into a super-large chain footwashing shop. To realize this grand ideal, he needed a lot of money, so Wei Xiaobao listened to Mao Shiba's advice. After the suggestion, he immediately agreed and set off quietly without telling his mother, Wei Chunfang. On the way, Mao Shiba made a clear request for Wei Xiaobao to be his MLM downline. Maybe Mao Shiba thought that Wei Xiaobao was just a child and was easy to fool, but he didn't expect Wei Xiaobao to reject it outright.The reason for this situation is that Maoshiba underestimated Wei Xiaobao's business experience. His years of footwashing career gave Wei Xiaobao a pair of observant eyes. Rejecting this suggestion is a matter of course.

This dispute decided that Wei Xiaobao and Mao Shiba parted ways, even though they had many memorable common memories on the road, such as encountering security guards who interrogated their temporary residence permits outside Yangzhou City, encountering pyramid sales personnel from the Tiandi Product Marketing Association to persuade them to join the membership, and Once met Bai Hanfeng, one of the managers of the four major departments of Southwest Native Products Development Co., Ltd., but all these still could not maintain the cooperation between the two parties. In the end, they broke up after arriving at the destination.

Although Wei Xiaobao is young, he knows the most important secret of making money in the mall: If you want to make money, you must find people who are dumber than you to cooperate. Another elaboration on this theory is: It is immoral to let a fool keep his money. But Mao Shiba doesn't seem to understand such a simple truth, he is still hovering at the bottom of the illegal pyramid schemes, racking his brains every day to find a downline, but his ideal is even more stupid than his Mao Shiba People can't be found for a while.At this time, Wei Xiaobao entered the largest state-owned enterprise - Daqing Industrial Group Co., Ltd., starting from the bottom.

Daqing Industrial Group Co., Ltd. was originally a small company in Northeast China. At that time, the chairman of the board, Dorgon, had extraordinary business talent. He grasped the fierce competition between the two monopolistic entities of Daming Industrial Development Co., Ltd. and Dashun Industrial Development Co., Ltd. Taking advantage of the opportunity, he took advantage of the opportunity and occupied the domestic market in one fell swoop. After several generations of hard work and development, until the company's board of directors made a decision to appoint the young Kangxi as the chairman, the company's products had already monopolized domestic and foreign markets. market.Although the anti-monopoly voices from the people continue, the national conditions determine that the split of Daqing Industrial Group Co., Ltd. will take time.

Such a large company has extremely strict human resource management. Every person who enters the company to become a department manager has to go through ten years of hard study and at least an MBA diploma to get such an opportunity.With Wei Xiaobao's conditions at the time, it was absolutely impossible for him to pass the interview.Then, how did Wei Xiaobao enter this company and become one of its employees? As everyone knows, Wei Xiaobao did not enter Daqing Industrial Group Co., Ltd. through a formal recruitment interview.In fact, although he already knew the name of this company, he never thought that he would have the opportunity to enter it and become Chairman Kang's most reliable assistant in the future.

At that time, Wei Xiaobao didn't think about these things. His habit was to solve the urgent problems that must be solved as soon as possible.This is a good working habit. No matter how huge the project is and how complicated it is, if you want to solve it, you must start from the most imminent place. The most urgent problem facing Wei Xiaobao is: eating. It just so happened that Xiao Guizi, a handyman in a collective canteen of a company, was in trouble at home and was busy going home. Wei Xiaobao seized this opportunity and started working in this collective canteen as Xiao Guizi's name.But soon, he was surprised to find that he was lucky enough to join the largest group company in the world, and the employee who was not a few years older than him who came to the cafeteria every day to check the food and took the opportunity to steal food was impressively Kangxi, the chairman of the group company.

This discovery made Wei Xiaobao ecstatic, being able to cling to Chairman Shang Kang was a good thing that he didn't even dare to dream about.But soon, he realized that something was wrong. Whether it is the chairman of the board or the department manager, what they need most is followers. If there is no effective help to assist them, their power and influence will be nothing. To put it more clearly, the superior supervisor relies on your role to become the superior supervisor. If you cannot be a tool for the superior supervisor to achieve work goals, then the superior supervisor will not agree with a worthless employee as his subordinate.The idea of ​​relying on a big tree to enjoy the shade is just out of ignorance of the rules of the workplace.

At that time, Chairman Kangxi lost his influence and role in the company precisely because he fell into the predicament of being unavailable. There are two main reasons why Chairman Kangxi lost his influence in the company. One is that he has just taken over the power of chairman and has not yet formed his own management team.The second is that the president of the group company, Ao Bai, has a high reputation and has many followers. All major decisions of the group company are almost always made by Ao Bo.Although Director Kang was very dissatisfied with Mr. Ao's way of taking the lead, but when the board of directors raised their hands to vote, the members of the team looked at Mr. Ao's wink and acted. , no one dared to support or go along with it, for fear of offending Mr. Ao and ruining his job.

Chairman Kang is extremely dissatisfied with this status quo, while President Ao even claims credit for it.When Daqing Industrial Group Co., Ltd. started its business, it was he who led the front-line marketing personnel to fight hard at the forefront and laid down the foundation of Daqing Group. Therefore, Mr. Ao always believed that the group company should allocate more shares to him. Let him control the holding of the group company, or, simply forget about MBO, what qualifications does a kid like Kangxi who doesn't understand farts have to be the chairman of the group company? Su Kesaha, the company's vice president, was very disapproving of Mr. Ao's idea, which aroused Mr. Ao's anger towards Mr. Su, so Mr. Ao proposed at the company's board meeting that Mr. Su was suspected of embezzling the company's property and should Dismissed, and handed over to the judiciary to investigate his criminal responsibility.Chairman Kang knew in his heart that Vice President Su was always one of the few people in the company who supported him. If Vice President Su was kicked out of the company, then Chairman Kang would be even more helpless, so he resolutely refused to agree.

The resolution to dismiss Vice President Su was not passed. President Ao was very angry and roared on the spot, and the board meeting broke up unhappy.After the meeting, Mr. Ao was still relentless, and chased after Kang Dong's office, forcing Kang Dong to sign the resolution to dismiss Vice President Su. When Chairman Kang and President Ao walked in one after the other, Wei Xiaobao was standing in front of Chairman Kang's bookshelf in a daze. He sneaked into Director Kang's office, with the purpose of stealing a management classic "Forty-two Chapters of Management" for Mr. Hai, the canteen supervisor.And the reason why he agreed to do this for Supervisor Hai was because if he didn't agree, Supervisor Hai would unceremoniously fire him.He, Wei Xiaobao, was just an orderly worker in the cafeteria, and his name wasn't even on the roster of the company's employees. To fire him, Director Hai was just a one-sentence matter, so Wei Xiaobao had no choice but to bite the bullet and agree to get a job.

Although Wei Xiaobao agreed to Director Hai's threat and sneaked into Chairman Kang's office, he forgot one thing: he was illiterate.Although it is not his fault that he is illiterate, he must bear the consequences. This incident can be said to be Wei Xiaobao's first lesson in the workplace: In the workplace, don't ask who is at fault, but you must understand who will bear the consequences. Any wrongdoing is forgivable, but any consequences can be devastating, far more than you can afford. Now Wei Xiaobao is bearing unpredictable consequences for something that was not his fault, looking at the rows of books on the tall bookshelf, he is dizzy and at a loss.At this moment, Chairman Kang and Mr. Ao were arguing one after the other. Wei Xiaobao was in a hurry and had no time to escape from the office, so he had to dodge and hide in the corner of the bookshelf. Chairman Kang walked in angrily: "No, absolutely not! I will not agree!" Mr. Ao chased after him domineeringly: "Why? Why didn't you agree?" "Because," Chairman Kang argued, "Vice President Sukesaha has made great contributions to the development of our company. He started as a salesman and built it up step by step based on his own performance, which is rare. talent." "But Suksaha is living on his laurels now," Mr. Ao yelled loudly. "He embezzled the company's assets. This is a serious act of corruption. So many people in the company can testify, why are you hesitating?" Aobai took the resolution to dismiss Suksaha and put it in Kangxi's hand, "Xiaokang, sign it quickly, if you don't sign it, we will all be unable to work." "You are not allowed to call me Xiaokang!" Kangxi felt Oboi's contempt for him, and couldn't bear it any longer, and knocked the decision to the ground, "Oboi, I ask you, you must drive Sukesaha away." What is the purpose of leaving the company?" "What, don't you dare to sign?" Obai was furious, and he slammed his fist on the table, which made the young Kang Dong tremble and took a step back involuntarily. You actually asked me what my purpose is for doing this, what purpose do you say I have, tell me, tell me!" With a few roars, Kangxi had already been cornered by Oboi, except for his pale face and trembling, he was powerless to refute. Seeing that Director Kang and President Ao were retreating one after another, and the other was pressing forward step by step, and they were about to retreat to Wei Xiaobao's hiding place, Wei Xiaobao suddenly became anxious. If someone found out that he sneaked into the chairman's office, he would Trouble, under the embarrassment, he was quick to wit, took a step forward, and shouted: "Mr. Ao, why are you bullying Chairman Kang?" Wei Xiaobao suddenly yelled, startling both Kangxi and Oboi, and when he found out that the person who jumped out suddenly was just a handyman at the bottom of the company, Oboi snorted: "Go away, we We are discussing major issues of the company here, if you dare interrupt, I will fire you!" As he spoke, he handed over the resolution, "Xiaokang, hurry up and sign, you are procrastinating, what do you look like!" At this time, Kangxi had been forced by Oboi's power, so he had no choice but to take over the resolution and sign it.Oboi achieved his goal, greeted happily: "Gudubai!" and went out swaggeringly.Looking at his back, Wei Xiaobao was very surprised, and couldn't help asking: "Director Kang, you are the chairman of the company, why does President Ao dare to bully you like this?" Kangxi said with a bitter face: "Yes What can I do, although I am the chairman, but I am too young, and the department managers in the company all follow the winks of this guy Oboi, no one will listen to me." Hearing Kangxi's complaints, Wei Xiaobao rolled his eyes and slapped his chest fiercely: "Director Kang, whoever said that no one listened to you, I will listen to you. If you have anything to say, just order it." "You?" Kangxi smiled wryly, "It's a pity that you are not even a regular employee in the company. What's the use of being obedient if you are alone?" Wei Xiaobao was eager to express himself, and said: "Director Kang, you can't say that, have you heard the story of the mosquito and the lion?" "A story about mosquitoes and lions?" Kangxi looked at Wei Xiaobao in surprise.
