How many people are in your family?
"A family of five, including two children."
How old is the child?
"One is in junior high school and the other is in high school."
"Who is the child?"
"Two girls."
Upon hearing this, Chu Fang gave a thumbs-up with envy: "You're so lucky!"
Because he was a boy, Chu Fang understood the nature of boys: mischievous, troublesome, and often making his parents angry. In addition, he had no intention of carrying on the family line, so he preferred girls and hoped that his future children would also be girls.
How adorable it would be to dress up my future daughter like a little princess.
"Thank you." Kang Bo smiled and did not refute.
He truly believed himself to be a blessed man, feeling especially happy every day after delivering food and returning home to see his two children.
"Why did you quit your last job?" Chu Fang added, "Of course, it wasn't to deliver food."
“Um… I’m still working as a delivery driver.” Kang Bo chuckled as he answered, but then became serious, his face beaming. “The company’s business direction and the management philosophy at the top don’t align.”
"So you resigned?"
"No, they fired me."
“... ..."
Chu Fang nodded, signaling him to continue.
Kang Bo said unhurriedly, "At that time, our company was doing very well, and the industry had a bright future. It was a blue ocean market. Everyone in the company advocated continuing to invest, expanding the company's scale, number of employees, and various expenses... I had the opposite idea. I advocated defense and reducing costs, so they fired me."
He paused, then said confidently, "But in the end, I was right. Not only did that company go bankrupt, but the entire industry went bankrupt as well."
"Doing education and training?" Chu Fang asked.
Kang Bo gave a wry smile, while he laughed heartily.
In the past, some education and training companies tried to recruit Chu Fang's father, but he refused. He always believed that education is education and business is business, and the two should not be confused.
Otherwise, it would be a disaster.
He asserted that the education and training industry was doomed to die, and later events proved him right.
After a brief chat, the atmosphere between the two became much more relaxed, and Kang Bo was no longer nervous. Chu Fang then asked him many questions, all of which were given to him by the headhunter. They were particularly professional and complex, with special terminology, and only someone who had been deeply involved in the industry for a long time could answer them.
Chu Fang listened to the other person's reply and looked at the answer. He sighed helplessly and thought to himself, "The difference between people is really huge. I can't understand it at all. His answer is exactly the same as the original answer. How can anyone live like this?"
Kang Bo was no match for Chu Fang's professional knowledge. Chu Fang tossed aside the questionnaire and asked, "Tell me about your business philosophy."
Kang Bo replied seriously and clearly, "I don't want to lie, because lies can never become the truth. To be honest, I'm already forty-one years old, past my peak in my career, and I no longer have the youthful impulsiveness and passion for my work. Nowadays, I believe more in a 'maintaining the status quo' approach to business."
He was fired from the training institution precisely because he told the truth.
He had considered pretending to join his colleagues and rushing forward together, since he wasn't the boss and didn't care so much. But he couldn't bear to see the company go bankrupt, so he spoke up.
Unexpectedly, he was the first to be fired.
It's quite poignant to think about it.
Chu Fang took a sip of soup: "Continue."
“Hmm… …” Kang Bo pondered, “The current economic situation is not good, and it is foreseeable that it will continue for a long time. If the company’s track is not a ‘blue ocean’, defense is the best strategy. Meaningless expansion is doomed to death, dying on the eve of dawn.”
"But the essence of a company is profit; how can it make money without expansion?"
“In this day and age, it’s good enough if you don’t lose money in business. The price I get for food delivery has dropped many times.” Kang Bo smiled, then changed the subject, “But I’m confident that I can protect the company, find an offensive point in defense, and expand the company’s profits.”
Kang Bo is a conservative person. He runs his company steadily and takes it one step at a time, just like he did when he was in the education and training institution. However, his steady approach did not influence the boss, who was overwhelmed by the huge promise and lost his most basic judgment.
The two of them ate while applying for jobs.
"I'm driving, so I won't drink today." Chu Fang picked up his Sprite, gestured to the other person, and they clinked glasses. "On the day the company is founded, I'll have a drink with you."
"Huh?" Kang Bo was stunned for a moment, but then he realized that he had been successfully hired. He was overjoyed. "Thank you for your appreciation, President Chu."
After being unemployed for more than half a year, being rejected when looking for work, and delivering food every day, Kang Bo once thought that this would be his future life and felt desperate.
How can one survive in the bustling metropolis of Shanghai?
I finally got the job, and for a moment I didn't know what to do.
Chu Fang sipped her Sprite, looking at Kang Bo with excitement, feeling a sense of joy at helping others.
His choice of Kangbo was quite simple.
First, a conservative management style. Chu Fang is not short of money, has little desire for money, and does not have high demands for company profits.
Second, Kang Bo has elderly parents and young children to support, and he is wary of doing anything illegal or criminal that would ultimately implicate him.
Third, he quite admired the other party's honest attitude.
"Calm down, calm down." Chu Fang waved his hand, signaling the other party to calm down. He put down the Sprite and said softly, "Hmm... ..., you will temporarily serve as the company's general manager and handle all company affairs. Next, put your takeout aside and do a few things."
"First, think about the company's business operations. What methods are reliable and generate sufficient revenue? The revenue doesn't need to be too high; just enough to support yourselves first. Second, come up with a good-sounding company name. Third, whether you rent or buy, find a commercial area as your company's office address. Fourth, register the company. Fifth, set up the company structure and recruit employees. Sixth... ..."
Chu Fang listed out the relevant procedures and conditions for starting a company one by one, all of which Kang Bo had to handle.
"ah?"
Kang Bo exclaimed in surprise, then stood frozen in place, a multitude of thoughts swirling in his mind.
So, apart from the two of them, the boss and the general manager, there was nothing else in the entire company.
The company has no name or main business; it's even more of a shell company than a shell company itself.
How can this company continue to operate?
Chu Fang naturally noticed the change in Kang Bo's mind and pointed to the prestigious, luxurious, and extravagant Bugatti outside: "I have two cars like this at home, and I can guarantee that the registered capital of the company is no less than ten Bugattis, or even more. By the way, my Bugatti is worth 13 million."
It's safe!
Looking at the Bugatti, Kang Bo felt much more at ease.
The company's registered capital is at least 100 million yuan, which puts it ahead of 90% of companies in Shanghai.
This isn't just a shell company; it's practically Kang Bo's home. He needs to run it properly.
