Chapter 1453: Deep Love Between Sister and Brother
"That's easy. I have businesses in several other special zones. There's ready-made land in Xiamen. I'll have them start construction tomorrow and spread the word."
Pei Wencong always carried out Li Ye's decisions 100%. The garment factory was not an industry that required heavy investment, and it wouldn't cost much to make a big splash.
Moreover, Fenghua Clothing’s overseas sales are increasing year by year, and it is necessary to expand its production capacity. Even if it does not move out of Pengcheng in the end, it will not suffer losses.
The eldest sister, Li Yue, also said, "I don't have any problems here. Since the year before last, our expanded companies and stores have had nothing to do with Pengcheng Seventh Factory. After privatization was allowed last year, all the procedures have been changed and completed."
Li Ye said to Hao Jian, "Last year, I asked you to move Fenghua Clothing's anti-counterfeiting marking production line to Hong Kong Island. Have you finished the move?"
Fenghua Clothing has paid great attention to anti-counterfeiting since the day it was launched on the market. Its buttons, zippers and certain special stitching threads are updated every year at great expense.
Li Ye knew several years in advance that Fenghua Garment would be privatized. Given the nature of some people in the mainland, there might be a "Li Kui fighting Li Gui" phenomenon, so some things must be prepared in advance.
Hao Jian was stunned for a moment, then immediately said, "We completed the move last fall, and I've invested in new technology, so we'll fully update the anti-counterfeiting mark this year."
Li Ye looked at Hao Jian and said in a deep voice: "What I said is just a precautionary measure. If possible, I certainly don't want Fenghua Clothing to leave Pengcheng. Do you understand?"
Hao Jian nodded slowly: "I understand, and I believe you too."
Although everyone had made some preparations long ago, Hao Jian had been developing in Pengcheng over the years and his roots and connections were also in Pengcheng. If he started a new business, most of the halo above his head would disappear, at least the titles of "X Association Member" and "Association Chairman" would all be lost.
Therefore, he was unwilling to leave Pengcheng unless it was absolutely necessary.
At this moment, sister Li Yue suddenly said: "I have an idea, let me share it for your reference."
Li Ye smiled and said, "Everyone, if you have any ideas, just say it directly! Why are you still so reserved?"
Li Yue gave Li Ye a glare and then said, "I have been analyzing our market sales situation over the past two years, especially the market influence of our company's specialty stores.
Our current influence relies on advertising and the nationwide presence of specialty stores. The store staff commented that besides the style and quality of clothing, the most important thing for the general public is the brand's reputation and local recognition.
The quality and style of our Fenghua clothing are very good, so should we continue to improve the recognition of the Fenghua brand?
Now that shopping malls are being built in major cities, we asked Mr. Pei to come forward and find partners in the form of a joint venture to build large shopping malls in multiple cities.
However, the naming rights of the mall must belong to Fenghua Clothing. We will then make a unified and conspicuous sign on the top of the mall and put up the name of Fenghua Mall.
This will let everyone know that there is only one Fenghua clothing store in the country. If you want to buy Fenghua clothing, you can go to Fenghua shopping mall or specialty store.
As long as those shopping malls stand there, others won’t be able to snatch our trademarks even if they want to. However, to implement this plan, the investment in funds, manpower, and other aspects is not small.”
"Manager Li, this is a good idea. When it comes to clothing production, Fenghua Clothing can't claim to be the only one in the market, but when it comes to marketing capabilities, we are undoubtedly the best in the country."
"We don't need to worry about funding, but as for manpower... if we can't do it, won't others be even less capable?"
“.”
Wang Jianqiang spoke a lot in a serious manner, and won the approval of Hao Jian and others.
But the look Li Ye gave Li Yue was completely different from the look others gave him.
Because Hao Jian and others did not know that there would be a "Wanda Plaza" in the future, they naturally could not understand the idea expressed by Li Yue, which already had the prototype of the "Wanda Plaza".
Li Ye waited until everyone had finished speaking, then said, "Let you, Big Sister, take charge of this matter! Also, Big Sister, you have been with Fenghua Garments for so many years, you should get shares in the company. I will give you 10% of my shares, and you will also be our shareholder in the future."
“.”
Li Yue looked at Li Ye in shock.
She never expected that Li Ye would talk to her about shares at this time.
Sister Li Yue is not one of the members of the "Entrepreneurial Five". Although she has a great say in the company and can even exercise power on behalf of Li Ye to a certain extent, she is still different from Hao Jian, Jin Peng and others.
At that time, Li Yue was taking over Jin Peng's job, but he could not take over Jin Peng's equity.
Although Li Ye has publicly stated at home that Li Yue has a share of the Li family's business profits, he has achieved many small goals over the years.
But even in the heart of this old lady, Fu Guiru, it is different from the "10 percent" that Li Ye said today.
This 10% of shares can be passed on to Li Ye's nephew Xiaodun'er, and it flows from the old Li family to the old Yang family.
More importantly, this 10% can be transferred and sold.
Given the current size of Fenghua Clothing, how much is 10%?
In the past, Li Yue was able to use large sums of funds in the company, but this money was nothing like it.
But faced with such a large sum of money, sister Li Yue got angry.
"Xiao Ye, what do you mean? I offer advice to the company, is it just to get your shares?
Good fellow, you put this big hat on me, saying that my sister stole my brother's shares. I will never be able to hold my head up high for the rest of my life, you know? What will my parents think of me? What will everyone in the Li family think of me? "
“.”
Li Yue cursed a lot in one breath, and his eyes turned red in the end.
She is not short of money now, really not short of money.
Moreover, the fact that she was able to come to the capital from Qingshui County and see a wider world was already the greatest help that her younger brother Li Ye had given her. How could she still ask for his shares?
"Duoduoduo~"
Li Ye knocked on the table lightly and said calmly: "We are discussing business matters now. Don't bring personal feelings into it, let alone express your own opinions.
In any outstanding company in the world, it is common practice to allocate shares to core management personnel. This is a recognition of an employee's ability. If you don't have the ability, I won't give you shares, let alone your sister, even your father."
Li Ye paused and continued, "Also, don't yell at me. When Fenghua Clothing was founded, I said that I have absolute say. My words are final. No one can reason with me, including you."
“.”
Li Yue was speechless after being scolded by Li Ye.
What do you mean I have to say it and you don’t have to reason with me?
What if I don’t want your money?
“Oh, let me give you my opinion on this.”
Just as Li Yue was glaring at Li Ye, Wang Jianqiang suddenly raised his hand and said, "According to my understanding, it is a common practice for many world-renowned companies to have gold medal managers hold company shares.
However, this share should be borne by all shareholders, so I am willing to give out part of my shares as a reward to core employees in the future."
Jin Peng smiled and said, "I don't need to explain how we got to where we are today, right? As long as it's Xiao Ye's decision, it can't be wrong. No one should object."
Hao Jian quickly said: "Yes, yes, it's still Qiangzi who loves to study. I am also willing to give out my shares."
Pei Wencong also applauded and said, "Although I don't have any shares in Pengcheng Fenghua, I am willing to contribute a share from Hong Kong Island Fenghua Clothing. When everyone contributes, the flames rise high. Only when everyone contributes can we build a world-class excellent enterprise."
Eldest sister Li Yue watched as everyone stood on the "opposite side" of her, feeling anxious and angry but helpless.
But she finally said, "I have to discuss this matter with our mother and Xiaoyu. I can't let you have the final say alone."
Li Ye smiled lightly: "Okay, whatever you want."
Well! The only ones in this family who can suppress Li Ye are Fu Guiru and Wen Leyu.
But at the same time, these two people love Li Ye the most. Since Li Ye has spoken, they probably won't object.
Then we discussed some more things and it was time to eat.
When the group left the reception room, they found that Hao Cuicui, who had run away in the morning, had been caught by her mother and was sulking there.
Teenagers have bad tempers, but it was only 1993 after all. At most, Hao Cuicui had been exposed to the idea that "girls should be self-reliant". She was not so arrogant as to regard Hao Jian and An Xiaolian as her "biological father and mother" and sever ties with them in anger.
So looking at her depressed, aggrieved and yet angry expression, she had obviously been forced to surrender under the suppression of her mother, An Xiaolian.
This is how children of this generation are. Their parents don't understand the meaning of "caring for young hearts". Do you dare to disobey? A slap in the face or a stinky shoe sole will make you understand the true meaning of a mother's love.
When Hao Cuicui was sulking, the person who took the initiative to comfort her was actually her most disliked little brother Hao Liang.
Hao Liang handed all the red envelopes to Hao Cuicui: "Sister, I was wrong just now. I will give you all my New Year's money. There is a lot of money."
Hao Cuicui's eyes turned red, and she asked stubbornly, "What did you do wrong?"
Hao Liang was stunned for several seconds before he criticized himself: "I, I shouldn't cry."
After hearing what Hao Liang said, Hao Cuicui said angrily: "You know you shouldn't cry? As soon as you cry, our mother blames me. She blames me even though I'm not wrong."
"Then I won't cry next time."
"You said that last time."
Seeing the brother and sister entangled there, Hao Jian subconsciously wanted to go over and educate the children, but was stopped by Li Ye.
"The relationship between the siblings was formed through misunderstanding and forgiveness. Excessive interference from adults has destroyed the purity of this relationship."
“.”
Pei Wencong smiled and said, "Mr. Li is right. My sister and I had a lot of arguments when we were little, but now we have an enviable family relationship. You don't know how brothers and sisters in those wealthy families are like enemies."
"Old Pei, you're right. The bond between brothers and sisters is forged through fighting."
“.”
Sister Li Yue stared at Li Ye in a daze and finally shed tears.
The situation of the Hao siblings in front of him was very similar to his own childhood.
At that time, Li Yue always used blood to suppress and bully Li Ye, and her grandmother Wu Juying favored boys over girls and always scolded Li Yue.
But in the end, that annoying little dog brother turned out to be the one who loved him the most.
