Chapter 371 Three people provoked three big pieces
In the box, facing his first batch of employees, Zhao Guoyang told his plans for the company in a casual manner.
"I think everyone should have understood the job settings of foreign trade companies before. Today, I'm just enough time, so I'll try to tell you in detail."
As soon as Zhao Guoyang spoke, he attracted the attention of Zhang Yufang and the others.
Indeed, as MBA, Wang Zecheng and Xie Yiman from the University of Pennsylvania, they are definitely familiar with foreign trade companies and have more or less exposed to this knowledge in school.
As for Zhang Yufang, although she is not a professional economics student, she also has some understanding of this knowledge when she gets the customs declaration certificate.
Seeing the three of them listening carefully, Zhao Guoyang sat upright and slowly spoke: "Generally speaking, international trading companies are probably divided into three major parts, namely technology, marketing, and management."
"In addition to leadership positions such as general manager and deputy general manager, there is a director in these three areas who are responsible for their respective operations."
"Under the director, there are several department managers, responsible for the daily affairs of several major departments."
"For example, under the technical director, there is usually a technical quality management manager, in charge of the technical development department and the product quality department. Among them, the two departments have their own department leaders and supervisors, and specifically manage the affairs of their respective departments."
"Specifically, under the Technical Development Department, there are also departments such as the Production Technology Design Department, Industrial Design Department, and Technical Development Department. Each department is equipped with one chief and deputy section chief; under the Product Quality Department, there are a quality management department and a market feedback department, which are also the configuration of the chief and deputy section chief..."
Zhao Guoyang took a breath, raised his right hand gently, and signaled: "Teacher Zhang, Zecheng, Yiman, if you have any questions, you can ask questions at any time, don't just talk about it."
After hearing Zhao Guoyang's words, the three of them looked at each other. Wang Zecheng first asked: "Mr. Zhao, you just explained this, I almost understand the general structure of the company. But I still don't know much about how the three parts of technology, marketing and management are divided."
Zhao Guoyang nodded in approval and explained: "Well, I understand what you want to ask Zecheng. You are not clear about the specific work content of these three parts, right?"
Wang Zecheng nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, my understanding of foreign trade companies is foreign trade. But from what Mr. Zhao said, will our company also involve production and manufacturing?"
Zhao Guoyang chuckled and said, "Zecheng, you are asking this question well. Generally, small trading companies are not responsible for producing goods themselves, and they are more just buying and selling."
"But when I first established Xingtai International Foreign Trade Company, I reported the business scope of energy, production and manufacturing in the industrial and commercial tax department, so in the future, our company will definitely produce its own products to open up a larger market..."
Hearing this, Wang Zecheng, Xie Yiman and the others suddenly realized.
As for Zhang Yufang next to him, she knew even more. She knew Zhao Guoyang’s professional level in automobile manufacturing. Speaking of which, the registered capital of this foreign trade company comes from his technical patent transfer fee.
In the future, Xingtai International Foreign Trade Company will develop, design and manufacture products by itself, which is naturally no problem.
Seeing that the three of them understood a little, Zhao Guoyang continued to explain the specific work content of these three parts.
"The main work of the Technical Quality Management Department is to carry out new product research and development according to the company's plan requirements for new product development, and be responsible for product improvement and technical improvement. In addition, recording and organizing various experimental data and providing technical reports are also the responsibilities of the department."
"Of course, our company has no new product development task yet. The technical department will temporarily only have the product quality department to maintain operation. The work content is to analyze the product quality status and monitor the quality of the raw materials provided by the supplier according to needs!"
After Zhao Guoyang finished talking about the main tasks of the Technical Quality Management Department, his eyes turned to Zhang Yufang and said: "Teacher Zhang, according to the business scope of our company, our Technical Quality Management Department needs very professional talents in machinery and energy."
"Such talents have not been found yet, so you will supervise the technical quality management department. How about it? Is it okay?"
Zhang Yufang was stunned for a moment, then nodded and responded.
Zhao Guoyang said "yes" and continued to introduce to the three of them: "Among the three major aspects, everyone has already understood technology. Let me talk about marketing."
Hearing this, Wang Zecheng and Xie Yiman, you look at me, and I look at you, and they are all excited.
Indeed, according to their professionalism, they must be responsible for their marketing work.
Zhao Guoyang drank water and slowed down his speech: "As a foreign trade company, marketing is naturally very important."
"According to international practice, within our company, under the marketing director, I also plan to set up two managers, namely the marketing operation manager and the supply management manager."
"The marketing operation manager has several positions such as brand manager, customer relationship manager, customer service manager, service manager, etc., and is responsible for managing their own positions; while the supply management manager has the supply planning manager, supply business manager and other positions."
After pausing, Zhao Guoyang's eyes turned around on Wang Zecheng and Xie Yiman and said, "For the time being, Zecheng, you should take the market operation first, and Yiman is responsible for supply management."
"Of course, this does not mean that you two must be the marketing operation managers and supply management managers of the company's future growth. Everything depends on your performance in your work."
Zhao Guoyang's words immediately aroused the competitive spirit of Wang Zecheng and Xie Yiman.
The two nodded at the same time and replied: "Please rest assured, Mr. Zhao, we will do our best and will not disappoint you!"
What Zhao Guoyang wanted was the effect. He nodded with relief and said, "Well, in addition to the trouble you two have, the marketing director also needs to be responsible for the regional business management of seven continents."
"I will take care of this for the time being. When the time is right in the future, I will appoint a full-time marketing director to take charge..."
After Zhao Guoyang said this, the meaning became very obvious.
The three directors in the company's three major parts are definitely senior executives.
As for Wang Zecheng and Xie Yiman, who are temporarily responsible for market operations and supply management, according to their current position, they should be at the top of the middle-level cadres.
Basically, as long as the two of them make no mistakes in their future work, there will be no big problem in their position.
Even both of them still have a certain chance to attack the position of marketing director as an executive.
This news is really wonderful for Wang Zecheng and Xie Yiman, who have been looking forward to making a career.
When Wang Zecheng and Xie Yiman were excited, Zhang Yufang, who was sitting beside them, was somewhat disappointed.
The task Zhao Guoyang assigned to her just now was the management technology quality management department.
Although from the administrative level, she, Wang and Xie are no different.
But in the future, once the company hires professional technical backbones, I will definitely step down from this position.
At that time, where should I go?
Just when Zhang Yufang was not thinking, Zhao Guoyang said again: "I have already told you two of the three major parts. As for this last part, it is the most core part of the company, that is, the management part..."
Speaking of this, Zhao Guoyang directly turned his attention to Zhang Yufang and said, "Teacher Zhang, I think you must be the one who is the management director. How about it, do you have the confidence to take on this responsibility?"
Hearing this, Zhang Yufang's eyes were confused. Wang Zecheng and Xie Yiman next to her had already reacted and congratulated her at the same time.
Zhang Yufang was stunned for a long time before she realized it. She blushed excitedly and nodded, "Mr. Zhao, I, I will do my best to do this job well!"
Zhao Guoyang nodded with relief and said, "Well, I have confidence in you! Speaking of which, for every company, management is the most important. Among the companies in Western countries, there are many management directors who are members of the board of directors..."
Zhang Yufang nodded heavily and asked in a voice: "Mr. Zhao, what departments do you need to set up for management or department managers? Please give me guidance!"
Zhao Guoyang waved his hand and said, "Hey, if you don't say this Teacher Zhang, I will definitely give you some more."
"Under the management director, there are four departments directly in charge, namely the Investment Department, the Finance Department, the Human Resources Department, and the Office. Each department has a supervisor who is responsible for the daily work of their respective departments."
"In addition, the Investment Department has an investment management department; the Finance Department has a management department, a cashier department, a cost department, a tax department, and a customs declaration department that you are familiar with; the Human Resources Department has a personnel department and a performance department; the office is more complicated, including front desk security, administrative assistants, legal affairs and many other miscellaneous matters, which are all attributed to it."
After Zhao Guoyang's explanation, Zhang Yufang was basically relieved.
It can be seen that the power of my management director is indeed very large, and he basically controls all the projects currently operating in the company.
Among them, although Zhao Guoyang has a personal relationship with him, to some extent, it is also Zhao Guoyang’s recognition and hope for him.
After understanding this, Zhang Yufang made a secret decision in her heart that she must do something and that she can’t make people laugh at Guoyang for being nepotist, right?
After Zhao Guoyang's explanation, the company's general situation has been explained to Zhang Yufang and the others clearly.
He is quite familiar with Zhang Yufang's personality and level.
Just from the fact that she was able to get the customs declaration certificate so quickly, it can be seen that Teacher Zhang’s learning perseverance and hard work are definitely outstanding.
Therefore, Zhao Guoyang was not stingy and directly gave Zhang Yufang the position of management director.
As for Wang Zecheng and Xie Yiman, they must have the ability, but they need to take a step-by-step look at what they can do.
Zhao Guoyang had already thought about it. After a while of investigation, if there were no major problems, he would officially turn them into formal positions and serve as marketing operations managers and supply management managers.
