Chapter 3220 Liu Yingying's proposal
"Okay, Zhiling, you can go out first." Lin Feng stopped drinking immediately when he saw that Liu Yingying and Lin Zhiling seemed to have escalated the smell of gunpowder.
Zhiling frowned, snorted slightly, and turned around to leave.
Liu Yingying chuckled and ignored it. Just when Zhiling was about to leave, Liu Yingying deliberately moved closer to Lin Feng and deliberately made a little noise. When Zhiling heard it, she looked back and her face turned green, but after all, it was not for a long time.
A veteran who has been on the battlefield, not a little girl just starting out. Zhiling just hung the door tightly in displeasure and stopped coming in.
Lin Feng shook his head helplessly, looking at Liu Yingying who was slightly showing her little daughter's attitude, and smiled bitterly, "I say Yingying, you look like this to outsiders, you are not worthy of your title of strong woman."
"Strong woman? Have I ever said that I want to be a strong woman?" Liu Yingying shrugged indifferently, "For a woman, it is important to have a career, but family is more important."
When Lin Feng heard this, he felt a little ambiguous and quickly changed the subject, "By the way, Yingying, try this new tea. This is the Dahongpao that I finally got. There are only a few taels of it in the country every year."
Liu Yingying drank it up indifferently and smacked her lips, "It feels about the same as Master Kong's green tea. Of course, the taste is more mellow, the aroma is stronger, and the aftertaste is more substantial."
Lin Feng was speechless. What is this called, cow chewing peonies? Back then, when Guo Jing didn't know how to eat the dishes Huang Rong carefully prepared for Hong Qigong in one bite, Hong Qigong must have been in the same mood as Lin Feng at the moment.
"Okay, don't look at me like this. You should know that my work is very stressful and I don't have as much leisure as you. I usually don't have time to drink tea, so I drink instant coffee. I'm used to drinking instant coffee, and with this Dahongpao,
How can I drink it?" Liu Yingying glanced at Lin Feng and snorted as if she was complaining.
Lin Feng smiled bitterly. Was he accusing himself of being too leisurely? But thinking about it, it was a little bit. After handing over Dingdang.com to Liu Yingying, Lin Feng basically ignored him. For this entrepreneurial partner who had been through the entrepreneurial period, Lin Feng
I still believe it very much. It is said that those who are capable work harder. Liu Yingying is so capable, so naturally she will work harder.
"By the way, what are you doing here today?" Lin Feng asked.
"Well, two things. One business and one private!" Liu Yingying said.
"Okay, let's talk business first." Lin Feng gestured.
"This official matter is said to be one, but actually it is several. Let me tell you slowly. The first one is whether 'Dingdang.com' will be listed on the market or not? Many employees within this company have been concerned about it. To be honest, they hope that the company will
If they can go public, they can also make a fortune, which is probably the biggest dream of all IT company employees." Liu Yingying said.
Lin Feng nodded, thought for a moment, and asked, "Then what do you think?"
"Listing has the advantages of being listed, and not being listed has the advantages of not being listed. If you go public, everyone's worth will increase dramatically, and the company's purse will be richer. If it is not listed, then the company can be independent no matter what it does.
, and there is no need to explain to anyone." Liu Yingying said, "As far as I can see, 'Dingdang.com' actually does not need to be listed at all. First, we are not short of funds, and the funds we have in hand now amount to tens of billions of yuan.
Although a large part of this money is frozen funds in netizen transactions, due to the unique operating model of 'Dingdang.com', this money can also be counted as working capital that we can call. Therefore, we do not need to go public to raise money.
Money. As it is now, run your own business, be responsible for your own profits and losses, and do whatever you want."
Lin Feng nodded. What Liu Yingying thought about was also what Lin Feng thought about. But since Liu Yingying brought it up, it meant that she still had something to say.
"Although not being listed is a good thing for the development of the company, it may not be a good thing for employees. The most attractive thing in this world is money. With money, you can buy everything, including the loyalty of employees." Liu Yingying said solemnly.
Said, "Today in China, 'Dingdang.com' is the number one e-commerce player, a leader in both b2c and c2c, and occupies 90% of the market share. But this is not without competitors, nor is it without competitors.
People want to enter this market again. These companies, if they want to enter this market, the most direct way is to steal people from us."
Stealing people? Lin Feng tapped his fingers. This seems unscientific, right? This market is fixed. How to rob people? Steal those individual sellers? Or rob those traders?
"I think you should have heard a saying, called a thousand-mile dike, destroyed by an ant nest. These companies can't take away the market, nor can they take away the shops, because we have the most mature market. If they want to steal people, there is only one
The method is to destroy this market, destroy this mature market, and then rebuild the market. At that time, everyone will be on the same starting line." Liu Yingying said.
Lin Feng looked solemn, he understood what Liu Yingying meant.
"You mean, someone wants to cause destruction?" Lin Feng said in a deep voice.
Destruction is always easier than construction. A thousand-year-old temple can be burned with a fire. A century-old reputation can be shattered by a rumor. In this world, destruction is too easy.
"Yes. It's just sabotage. I have received the news and found out a few cases. Now, a group of 'professional reviewers' have been born on 'Dingdang.com'. They specialize in buying products that are easy to denitrify, and then give negative reviews
In order to blackmail, they extort reputable buyers. Not only that, there are also some malicious sellers who deliberately sell fake and shoddy goods, take advantage of loopholes in our rules, harm consumers, and threaten consumers to complain. But because many consumers lack the
The necessary common sense and experience to protect one's legitimate interests will be rejected by our customer service staff, which will eventually lead to bad reviews of our 'Dingdang.com'." Liu Yingying said in a deep voice.
Lin Feng frowned. Unexpectedly, with the rapid development of e-commerce in recent years, so many weird things would happen. Professional negative reviewers have become "masters". It's really funny.
"Yingying, I think you should have a way to solve this. This will not trouble you." Lin Feng looked at Liu Yingying.
"Well, these are very simple. Regarding professional negative reviewers, I asked the seller to provide phone recordings. Although the court does not admit phone recordings as legal evidence, we can admit it and cancel a negative review. And those
For those who intentionally sell counterfeit and shoddy goods, I can also formulate relevant laws and try my best to remind all consumers. This can be avoided and put an end to it." Liu Yingying said, "But this is not because the other party wants to destroy the entire market.
The main means. The collapse of a dynasty usually starts from within."
Internal! Lin Feng's eyes turned cold. What kind of 'professional bad reviewer' or malicious businessman is this? In Lin Feng's view, it is easy to solve, it is not a big deal, and Lin Feng doesn't care. But if it involves internal matters,
That is no small matter. As Liu Yingying said, the collapse of a dynasty starts from within.
"What happened internally?" Lin Feng.
"This is what I want to tell you. People all like money. The company has not been listed for a long time. Many employees have been poached by headhunting companies, and there have been large-scale poaching. You should know that our 'Dingdang.com'
, said to be e-commerce. In fact, it is a service industry that provides electronic transaction services to all e-commerce customer service. If we want customers to be willing to trade with us, service is the key. If the customer service staff has a bad attitude, it will be easy for consumers to switch to other companies.
Company. Although our company occupies an absolute dominant position, if there are too many complaints like this, we will eventually lose the market!" Liu Yingying showed anger on her face.
This is a very despicable method. Very despicable, very despicable.
"How did you deal with it?" Lin Feng asked.
"I have punished 23 customer service staff with bad attitudes, but our company has as many as 5,000 customer service staff. 23 people are only a small part of them. If the other party is still so mean, we will have no way to defend ourselves. After all, once the hearts of consumers are
If it gets cold, they will refuse to come again." Liu Yingying said.
Lin Feng nodded, "Is there anything else?"
"Also, many of our 'law enforcement officers' (for transactions that cause disputes, 'Dingdang.com' will send arbitration teams to conduct arbitration, and they are also used as law enforcement forces by merchants). They are often invited to dinner by major merchants. I have
It is clearly prohibited, but many merchants still secretly invite these people to dinner. I think everyone knows exactly why they are invited to dinner," Liu Yingying said.
"Then what exactly do you want to say?" Lin Feng asked. What Liu Yingying said was just some incidents. Liu Yingying could solve these incidents. What she really wanted to say to herself was definitely not these.
"What I mean is that we should provide a strict reward and punishment system. Especially when the company will not be listed, we need a generous enough benefit system to appease those restless employees and make all employees feel at home with the company.
.In this way, employees can truly work for the company. After all, what we do is service." Liu Yingying said.
"This, you can just decide directly. Why do you have to tell me?" Lin Feng asked strangely. "I have said before that you have absolute rights in 'Dingdang.com' unless you want to change the shares." Lin Feng asked.
At this point, everyone was shocked, "Yingying, didn't you say you wanted to issue additional shares?"
"This is the reason why I came to you. I want to allocate shares to employees. And this will damage some of your interests, so I must get your consent." Liu Yingying said seriously, "I know you may think this
It's a bit unbelievable, but I think that an appropriate amount of fewer shares is enough to appease all employees. Especially, Lin, don't you think that as an extremely mature IT company, it is very unreasonable for the main executives to have no shares?"
Only three people currently own shares in 'Dingdang.com'. Liu Yingying holds 10% of the shares, Wang Juntao, the former number one e-commerce person in China, holds 5% of the shares, and Lin Feng personally holds 85% of the shares. None of the other senior executives hold shares.
This is a very incredible thing for any IT company. Of course, if the company is in the early stages of development, this is normal. But as the company develops, before the company can be listed, the company will allocate shares to let all senior executives
Even if they own certain shares, all employees will also be able to subscribe for a portion of internal stocks based on their positions. In this way, after listing, a win-win situation can be achieved.
This is in line with the theory that everyone in foreign countries makes money. However, 'Dingdang.com' is not listed, and Lin Feng makes money alone. This will naturally make some executives unhappy, including some low-level employees. After all, you can obviously go public, but you can't
Going public and making money by yourself is a bit too 'alone'. This kind of resistance is fine in normal times. But now that the market is a bit weird, this is likely to trigger a crisis of trust in the company.
What will happen once a big company comes in, such as eBay, which was defeated, or Amazon?
Therefore, Liu Yingying proposed a proposal to issue additional shares and allow all senior employees to enjoy the company's dividends.
"Can you tell me what you think first?" Lin Feng said calmly.
"Well, I propose to set up a salary scale in the company. According to different levels, a certain number of shares will be awarded, and these shares will only enjoy dividend benefits and will not have any decision-making rights. And once the
If an employee resigns, all the shares will be recovered." Liu Yingying stared at Lin Feng's eyes and said seriously, "I know that this will damage your shares and your interests, so this is my 10% original share.
, I am willing to return it to you. Then you will take out a certain amount of shares as bonus shares. I think that no matter how the company distributes dividends, it will never affect your controlling rights."
Lin Feng frowned.
"Yingying, what are you talking about! You deserve this share. Why don't you return it to me? Do you think I will?" Lin Feng frowned, with a look of displeasure on his face.
"Lin Feng, you should know that my annual salary is enough for me to live on. It doesn't matter to me whether I have the shares or not. As long as you believe me, it doesn't matter to me whether I have the shares. What I care about is
The future of the company. This share reward system was proposed by me. To avoid the suspicion that I had embezzled the company's shares, I should hand over these shares," Liu Yingying said.
Lin Feng looked dumbfounded.
"Yingying, what are you thinking? For the sake of those employees and harming your own interests, what do you want me to say?" Lin Feng really didn't know what to say.
"Because those employees have worked hard with me. They want to get more benefits, and I think they should get them, but they can't harm your interests, but I am willing to sacrifice my interests. I said, for
For a woman, career is important, but it is by no means the only one." Liu Yingying's eyes flashed.
Lin Feng frowned.
Chapter completed!
