Chapter 708 The Second Generation's Succession Issue
When people reach middle age, they either indulge themselves or discipline themselves.
Apart from this, I don’t seem to have any other major interests or hobbies.
Chang Fu undoubtedly went to the first extreme.
However, the difference between him and Gao Hu is that Chang Fu has now become a capital tycoon. He is completely financially free and can indulge his desires without having to restrain himself too much in the management of the group.
Naturally, there is no risk.
It's just that his wife Yang Qian is just doing her own thing, and they are not getting divorced. The only concern is probably that it is difficult to separate their son Chang Dalin from the property.
The rest of them just play their own games.
Although Chang Fu is now pot-bellied and weighs 200 pounds in middle age, he is still charming with the blessing of money.
The goddess that the young man couldn't pursue was just a woman with her butt raised and a forced smile to him.
If you are happy, buy them a car and a house.
If you are unhappy, give it to someone else and find the next one.
This is probably the benefit of financial freedom. Of course, there are also women who don’t bow down to money.
Only rarely, and Chang Fu would not waste his time on such a woman.
Chen Pingsheng ignored him because there were too many people like him in their circle.
Compared to beautiful women, power is more attractive to men.
Beauty resources, especially top-level beauty resources, can also become a stepping stone to the peak of money.
That’s what Chen Pingsheng knew.
One group has set aside two floors to search for top beauty groups all over the country.
These women not only need to be good-looking, but also have high emotional intelligence and talents.
Just having good looks won't get you anywhere in their circle.
The most important thing is to please the noble people.
Chen Pingsheng himself doesn't like these things very much, but he has come into contact with them a lot and is not surprised by them.
After An An was reminded again, he probably realized his problem.
For her, what she can learn in college is actually very limited.
It is far less than her training in her own group. Anle Group not only has investment funds, but also charitable funds.
And Tencent Business Management, which is worth over 100 billion yuan.
Now that Snack Run has been transferred to her name, Song Jun and An An have also begun to seriously study these traditional enterprises first founded by her father.
One discovery made her feel very strange.
That is, these traditional enterprises that developed in the early days have not even allowed her parents to see them in the past three years.
Although these companies still maintain a series of benefits and policies established by her father in the early days.
But it is obvious that the group's status is far inferior to before.
Many senior executives were actually somewhat disappointed, and even began to feel a little discouraged.
When I worked for the big boss before, I was full of fighting spirit.
Not only did they open retail stores all over the country, but they also invested billions in snack factories.
Dayou has the idea of becoming a leader in this industry.
Later, the big boss shifted his investment focus to the technology field and AI industry.
The status of these traditional industries that they developed early on is very embarrassing.
It's not just Snack Run that's like this.
Even Tengying Entertainment, once a major player in the entertainment industry, is no exception.
Even Bai Xin can't see her father often, which shows that her father's main energy is indeed focused on the field of science and technology.
As for these traditional enterprises in decline, the most direct solution adopted by the big bosses is resource integration.
Industrial mergers.
For example, the controlling stake of Tengying Entertainment was sold to Tengyou Media, and Bobo Milk Tea was sold to Lujiao Coffee.
Feiyangyang Catering was also sold to Tengyou Media.
These old people who followed the big boss to start the business and build the empire in the early days have even become completely raised by their stepmothers.
He is simply a child who is neither loved by his father nor by his mother and is treated as an abandoned child.
You have to know that they are all listed companies with market capitalizations of tens of billions.
There are even elderly people who dare to tell the truth and directly point out that the main reason for the overall decline and even backwardness of traditional sectors is not anything else.
The main problem is that the boss's focus has shifted.
The market reasons can all be attributed to the second factor.
The big bosses themselves don’t care much about these traditional enterprises, so the old employees of the group who have also achieved financial freedom will naturally not work as hard as before.
Companies that lack the gene of struggle are like old people in their twilight years. Not only are they slow to act, but they also develop a series of big corporate diseases.
For example, there is no problem with the collective.
Personal problems are big problems.
This kind of atmosphere is prevalent throughout the entire company. In order to avoid taking responsibility, any department will blame each other on major issues.
Even dragging a large number of people to share the responsibility.
It was originally just a small problem, but after layers of buck-passing and mutual sharing of responsibility, it was resolved.
The matter has not been resolved even after a month.
The two franchisee complaints best reflect the serious decline in the group's ability to act.
It was originally a small matter, with three snack shops opening within a 500-meter radius.
As a result, no one makes money.
This must be the responsibility of their group if the boss was there.
If a complaint is received on the same day, compensation will be arranged directly on the same day.
Now, various departments report to each other, and then study and discuss.
Then it will be analyzed and summarized by various departments.
People were so angry that they posted the incident online and even hired a large number of news media reporters to report on it.
Small things become big things, this is the big enterprise disease.
This kind of thing was simply unimaginable and even incomprehensible in the past.
And now, it happens every day.
It was the first time that An An heard an old man from the group criticize her father so indignantly.
This is also the first time I know that such a serious problem can occur in a large enterprise.
Under normal circumstances, this kind of problem should not occur in private enterprises. Once it happens, it is undoubtedly the best evidence of regression.
Her father is now completely unable to focus his energy on these traditional businesses!
But would he not know these things?
He definitely knew about it, he just didn't have the energy to deal with it anymore.
Even thinking deeper, these problems were left for her to solve.
Once she can solve the problem, the old people in these traditional enterprises will naturally listen to her.
She can also take advantage of the situation to gain the right to speak in the entire traditional sector.
Again, the group is not hers alone. If she wants to convince others, it cannot be done simply because she is Chen Pingsheng's daughter.
She has to show her strength herself.
An An gathered the elderly people here for a day-long discussion. Because of her approachable style, most of the elderly were willing to tell her the truth.
It is no exaggeration to say that when An An was little, he was watched over by people like them as he grew up.
Now that she has grown up, she has begun to inherit the family business.
If necessary, these elderly people are willing to provide full support.
After all, without the big boss, there would be no them.
But all this depends on An An's own ability. She must first be a person with ideas, so that people like her can support her.
Otherwise, no one will submit to anyone else.
Traditional listed companies with a market capitalization of tens of billions of yuan have at least 50,000 employees.
How to manage such a large enterprise with over 50,000 employees!
For An An, it is definitely a big challenge, even a huge challenge.
After the meeting, she no longer had the heart to shoot the short film. Her father was right. Compared with a company with tens of thousands of employees, what does your personal interest mean?
After returning to the dormitory, Chen Anan, who had always been optimistic and positive, became silent, which was unusual for her.
She didn't know how to deal with this problem.
The traditional groups have been slow to respond, and my dad is now ignoring these traditional enterprises.
As a result, a large number of elderly people have become depressed and are no longer as positive as before.
And this may be the most difficult test question for her in college.
Because her father has put the food problems of tens of thousands of people, including the future of tens of thousands of families, in her hands.
But she was helpless.
I don’t know how to deal with it at all!
Is she unworthy of her father's training over the years, and is she really capable of shouldering such a responsibility?
The two questions kept circling in An An's mind, making her a little discouraged and also a little at a loss.
"An An, what's wrong with you?"
It was Jiang Tang who came over first and asked her.
An An said absentmindedly: "Nothing, I was in meetings all day today, I'm just a little tired."
"Oh... Uncle Chen has left Guangzhou?"
"Yes, he is usually very busy, and it is not easy for him to come and see me."
"Did your father give you any special instructions?"
"Indeed, there is a little bit. In fact, it was arranged a long time ago."
Chen Anan said, "Dad handed Snack Run over to me. I called a meeting with the seniors there today. They said that the real reason why traditional enterprises, including this sector, have fallen behind is because my dad has been neglecting the business for so many years, and I can't find any way to change it. Don't you think I'm useless?"
"Snack Run? Is this the store we usually go to for snacks?"
“If there’s no piracy, then that’s the one.”
Jiang Tang explained to the other two girls, "An An's family owns many businesses. Many of the places we often go to are owned by them. The snack shop that's spread all over the country is probably just one of them."
The turtle girl blinked her cute big eyes and asked, "An An, your dad won't hand over such a big company to you now, right?"
"Dad did give it to me, and I haven't a clue."
Although An An had done many entrepreneurial projects before, none of them was as big as Snack Run.
It is even more impossible to have so many employees!
All I can say is that the bigger the company, the greater the responsibility.
It was the short-haired heroic girl who comforted her, saying, "What are you afraid of? As the saying goes, a towering building starts from the ground. Your father didn't become so powerful all of a sudden, and Snack Run didn't become so big right after it came out. Although President An An has taken over this company, you can also treat yourself as a newcomer and start from scratch. Once you understand everything about this company, you will naturally find a way to save it.
"With your dad supporting you, there's no need to put so much pressure on yourself right from the start."
That seems to make sense.
The misunderstanding that An An fell into is often the biggest pitfall for rich second-generations to take over family businesses.
That is an attempt to pass one or two reforms, or to fire a large number of elderly people.
To give the group an immediate revitalization.
This kind of reform is also called "getting rid of the old and bringing in the new" by the second generation like them.
The final result is either the death of the group or the revival of the group.
But the probability is still death.
Because in a group of tens of thousands of people, if you sit in the top office, it is very difficult to hear the truth.
They can't even listen to the truth, but they want to take drastic measures to cure the corporate diseases that have accumulated over the past few years.
If managing a large enterprise were so easy, there wouldn't be so many rich second-generations failing in this.
The suggestions for short-haired heroic girls are very down-to-earth.
Start with the basics first, and then wait until she understands the specific operating model, profit projects and advantages of the entire group.
Naturally, many reliable methods will come to mind.
A large company like Snack Express, with a market value of tens of billions, has a large number of group departments.
Of course, Chen Anan was not going to those branch departments, but the real core department.
Such as the marketing and franchise department, finance department, human resources department, venture capital department, channel operations department, and food supply chain, etc.
She needs to understand these things, and only by understanding them can she truly have a say.
This process is destined to be long.
For the first time, An An took her roommates to various departments as an intern.
The purpose is naturally to investigate the main problem of the slow response of the entire group.
You don’t know until you go, and you’ll be shocked when you do.
In the years without my father's personal management, the management at all levels of the group were filled with people with connections.
These people with connections come the latest and leave the earliest.
Most of the things are left to the people below him, and he often seeks financial reimbursement for unknown expenses.
An An had just been assigned to a department when he met such a person with connections.
She is a woman who has just graduated from college less than a year ago and is in charge of logistics and customer service.
Mainly responsible for connecting with major franchisees to address issues and opinions.
Such an important department is in a mess and non-existent under this woman's management.
Don’t be fooled by the old man’s indignant and eloquent words.
When their children graduate and look for jobs, the first thing they think of is to use the resources and power in their hands.
So that they can easily sit in the office and get a million-dollar annual salary.
Although the group has various regulations, it does not allow children or relatives of direct senior executives to join the group.
But the big boss no longer has the energy to take care of it. He is no longer around, and all the things he has formulated can be destroyed by just one person.
A lot of them will follow.
Snack Fast Run has over 20,000 directly-operated stores nationwide, and countless franchise stores.
Between 2014 and 2017, over 10 billion was invested each year in snack manufacturers.
We have supported no less than 15 snack manufacturers to go public.
With this level of strength, it would not be like this now if it hadn't encountered huge management problems.
Not to mention the meager profits in a year.
