050 Not being lazy, but a master of strategy
Guan Xinyan joins the legendary trajectory and will serve as the company's CEO, that is, CEO.
Sun Zhennan took a sip of coffee and said, "Senior sister is the president, so do you want to retreat from the position of president?"
Chen Yao nodded: "Absolutely, I am still the chairman of the company."
CEO sounds tall and handsome, but it has to face a lot of work tasks every day, and this position is not easy to do.
Chen Yao likes freedom and rarely appears in the company. If he is the president, he is really incompetent.
Professional things are left to professionals, and professional managers are actually better. Guan Xinyan has worked as a chip architect in a Silicon Valley chip company and has also served as a company executive. He is a manager with a technical background and is the top talent that Chen Yao most desires.
Sun Zhennan enviously said: "If you don't need to manage the company, you can be lazy and not go to work."
Guan Xinyan smiled and said: "It is not a good thing for the founder of the company to take big plans. If he withdraws from the company's management, he can better think about the company's strategic decisions."
"Many companies in the world went bankrupt, not because there was a management problem, but because there was a wrong strategic direction."
Why did Nokia decline?
It’s not a management issue, but a wrong strategic direction.
When other mobile phone manufacturers joined the Android camp, Nokia mistakenly chose to cooperate with Microsoft and chose the WP system.
WP later proved that it was a system with incomplete application ecosystem. With the decline of the WP system, the world's largest mobile phone manufacturer also followed suit.
Although Nokia also made Android systems later, it had missed the best opportunity.
Why did Kodak decline?
The world's largest camera brand was once the era of film cameras. Kodak was the absolute king, and no one could defeat it.
But the arrival of the digital camera era directly caused Kodak to go bankrupt.
The classic brands of countless photography enthusiasts have become history.
Kodak does have management problems, but the biggest problem is not management, but the strategic direction is wrong.
Kodak himself was the first person in the world to develop digital camera technology, but they did not pay attention to it and were paranoid that digital images could not surpass film.
But a few years later, everyone had a mobile phone in their hands and took digital photos. Now, how many people still remembered that they once had a Kodak camera.
The founder of a company is not necessarily a management master, nor does he need to become a technical master, but he must be a strategic master!
This will determine the rise and fall of a company.
Therefore, Guan Xinyan believes that Chen Yao's withdrawal from management is a good thing, and he can better plan a long-term and bright future for the company.
Sun Zhennan gave Guan Xinyan a thumbs up: "Senior sister, your awareness is high."
Guan Xinyan pursed his lips and suggested: "The legendary trajectory can implement a joint CEO system."
“Joint ceo?”
"Yes." Guan Xinyan said: "It's just that a company has two CEOs, but you don't need to be responsible for specific matters."
In other words, the name ceo can be retained, but it does not require work.
Chen Yao felt that her suggestions were very good and nodded in agreement.
Tomorrow, she will join in and hold the first general meeting of staff to announce this matter.
...
On a new day, the sun rises.
The alarm clock of the mobile phone rang, and Chen Yao habitually reached out to touch the mobile phone to turn off the alarm clock.
I opened my eyes and looked at the time. It was already 9 o'clock in the morning and was still in bed at home. If I hadn't been the boss, I would definitely have a fine.
I got up calmly, walked into the bathroom to wash, and then went to the teahouse outside for breakfast.
With top talents joining, you can retreat from busy management and live the leisure life you want.
At 10 a.m., Luyuan Building Conference Hall.
The first all-employee meeting was held, and more than 500 employees were present and sat down one by one.
They are all very young, mostly fresh graduates.
Chen Yao stood on the stage and said to them: "The company has moved a new headquarters, and the new president takes office today. Many people are curious who she is?"
Chen Yao looked at the door: "Senior sister, come in."
A woman wearing a black career suit, looking about 30 years old, walking like the wind, and smiling confidently walked in.
The newly appointed president turned out to be a beauty.
All employees applauded at the same time!
Chen Yao briefly introduced her resume, returned from Silicon Valley, returned to China to play, joined the legendary trajectory, and said that it was a word for salary reduction.
Microsoft, Apple, Google and other companies offered her very generous conditions, but she insisted on returning to China to join a startup company, and her salary was only 1/4.
From this point of view, you can know the ability and courage of this woman!
Guan Xinyan stood on the stage and said, "I'm very happy to be able to do things with my classmates."
The very kind opening remark instantly won the favor of everyone on the scene, and everyone applauded again.
A company is like a class, and each other can call each other classmates.
Many technology companies like to call their employees as classmates. The advantage is to downplay the relationship between superiors and subordinates and emphasize common learning and progress.
Such a title will make the company's team look younger. Even employees in their thirties and forties can also be classmates with the younger generation who have just graduated.
Usually, Chen Yao would not call Guan Xinyan the president, but directly call her senior or Guan Xinyan the classmate.
Similarly, Guan Xinyan would not call Chen Yao the chairman, but would call him Chen Yao’s classmate.
The meeting ended quickly and all employees left and returned to their posts.
Next, Guanxin Research Association established the company's organizational structure and listed the company's key businesses as a large business group.
"Senior sister, thank you for your hard work." Chen Yao said as he walked.
Guan Xinyan asked: "I heard from the professor that the company has not agreed to the capital party for the A round of financing?"
Chen Yao nodded: "Those capital tycoons are too fierce. If I promise them, I can get a lot of funds in a short period of time, but the price is that I have to pay most of the equity in the legendary track."
Guan Xinyan raised his eyebrows and asked, "If you don't compromise with capital, how can you solve the company's development funds?"
If a company wants to make cloud disks and mobile phone chips, it requires huge investment. Where does the money come from?
Chen Yao smiled confidently and said, "There must be a solution. But it is not convenient to disclose it for the time being."
President's Office.
Legend Trajectory implements a joint CEO system, with a company having two presidents, so Chen Yao and Guan Xinyan’s offices are both in the same place.
Two desks merge together.
Of course, Chen Yao rarely comes back to work in the company. There are no documents on the table on the other side, and all the affairs are on Guan Xinyan's side.
Chen Yao sat down and turned on the computer, checked the beta version of "Legend Cloud Network Disk".
