Chapter 328: Blaming others while forming cliques
Although Chen Jianghe looked a bit embarrassed sitting on the ground, his posture of using his left hand to support the ground as a buffer and his right hand to control the steering wheel to adjust the impact angle at the critical moment was very handsome.
For men, falling is only temporary, but being handsome is a lifelong thing.
"Was I handsome just now?"
After standing up, Chen Jianghe barely stood on the stone pier and was carried by his secretary to the business car parked not far away.
"Super handsome." Lin Siqi smiled with his eyebrows curved. As he spoke, he moved his hand down and placed it on his conscience to show that he was speaking from the heart.
Chen Jianghe smiled with satisfaction, looked around and muttered, "It seems a bit strange for a grown man like me to be carried on the back of a girl into the car."
"Why is it strange?" Lin Siqi asked with a smile.
"It's soft and comfortable." said Chen Jianghe.
In fact, Chen Jianghe had another strange thought in his mind: the secretary who usually received help from Liu Ziyu to open the bottle caps could actually carry him on her back and walk very steadily.
"Ah~" Lin Siqi showed a sweet smile and quietly put down his other hand. It should be softer this way.
"From mid-February to early March, our campus recruitment team went to the capital, Xi'an, Wuhan, Hangzhou, Jinling and other places in batches, and recruited more than 200 outstanding talents from universities such as Xi'an Jiaotong University, Wuhan University, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, University of Science and Technology of China, Nanjing University, and Zhejiang University..."
After getting in the car, Lin Siqi reported the campus recruitment results of this period to Chen Jianghe.
"Are there no students from Peking University or Tsinghua University?" Chen Jianghe asked. If Light Chaser wants to become a first-tier company in the Internet industry, attracting top talents to join the company is also an extremely important part.
“No.” Lin Siqi shook his head with some regret: “Even though the salary was very high, our campus recruitment team still got nothing.”
Chen Jianghe nodded and said nonchalantly: "Maybe in the eyes of those chosen ones, our light chasers are not qualified enough."
In fact, there are not many graduates from China's 985 universities who can settle down and work in technology, especially those from the top universities. More than 70% of the talents eventually flow into Wall Street and Silicon Valley.
Although it is understandable that people strive to move up, it is sad to think that most of the top talents that have been trained with great effort do not serve the country.
What is even more distressing is that among those outstanding talents who went abroad, many were once top scorers in the college entrance examination at the county, city, or even provincial levels. When the scores were announced, people in their hometowns were very proud of them, and they publicized them with loud drums and gongs. However, after graduation, they went to North America to do research and development, and made great contributions in many high-tech fields such as cutting-edge weapons, IT, and chips, and finally became a choke point for us.
Lin Siqi looked at Chen Jianghe, his eyes sparkling with admiration: "As long as you are here, the Light Chasers can develop well without them."
Chen Jianghe smiled and decided, "In the future, our campus recruitment will mainly target Xi'an Jiaotong University, Xidian University, and Huazhong University of Science and Technology. We won't go to Tsinghua University or Peking University. There's no need to put our face on someone else's cold butt."
"Okay." Lin Siqi nodded in agreement. As far as he could remember, there was a technology-based communications company in Shenzhen, and their campus recruitment targets were also these universities. During this spring recruitment period, the campus recruitment team of the Light Chaser had a friendly exchange with them.
"Boss, does your butt still hurt? Do you need me to rub it for you?" Lin Siqi cleverly changed the subject.
"It doesn't hurt anymore." Chen Jianghe shook his head and took out his phone to check the time: "I'm going to the Bund to attend the Internet Enterprise Summit this afternoon. I'll take you to lunch first, and then we'll go to the meeting together."
…
Chen Jianghe originally thought that the afternoon summit would be a long and boring meeting where he could potentially obtain some useful information. Unexpectedly, the organizer not only invited important figures to speak, but also invited Mr. Ma, the most representative and active person in current Internet companies, to give a speech.
"Today I just want to discuss with you how, as an entrepreneur, you can slowly build up your business, do it well, make it bigger, and make it stronger."
"First of all, the positioning must be clear. Take my company as an example. I position it as a small company with rapid development, but with strong social influence."
"Then we need to lower our profile. We need to understand that it is the rapid development of the industry that has made us what we are today, it is the economic boom that has provided us with the conditions for development, and it is the inclusiveness of the Internet that has broadened the path forward. If we raise our profile and think that we are a multinational company and that we are very powerful, then our path will become narrower and narrower."
…
"There is something in Mr. Ma's speech."
Chen Jianghe felt that the trip was not in vain. It was very interesting to listen to Mr. Ma talk about the company's positioning, values, and social responsibility on the spot.
“Finally, I think that when running a business, you must be focused. Don’t set too many strategic goals, preferably no more than three. If you set more than three, you won’t be able to remember them, and neither will your employees. Don’t set up too many subsidiaries, as it’s easy to lose your way. Only by focusing on your core business and creating core competitiveness can a company achieve long-term development and become bigger and stronger.”
"Thanks."
After Mr. Ma finished his speech, there was applause from the audience.
After the summit, a group of entrepreneurs surrounded Mr. Ma to take photos. Chen Jianghe did not intend to join in the fun, so he turned around and left with his secretary who took notes throughout the whole process.
"The handsome guy in front."
Just as he reached the entrance of the venue, Chen Jianghe heard a familiar voice. He turned his head slightly and found it was Mr. Ma. He raised his hand and pointed at himself, meaning, "Are you calling me?"
"Yes, it's you."
Mr. Ma walked over with a warm smile, followed by a group of people.
When he got to Chen Jianghe, he smiled and stretched out his hand: "If I remember correctly, your name is Chen Jianghe, right?"
"Yes." Chen Jianghe nodded with a smile and shook hands with Mr. Ma enthusiastically: "Hello, Mr. Ma."
Mr. Ma looked at him with a smile and said, "Your light chaser is very powerful. My Koubei.com just launched the takeaway group buying business at the end of last year, and was defeated by your team right from the start. The boss of our Koubei.com couldn't sleep at night and ran to my house in the middle of the night to complain. You have to give me an explanation."
"Huh?" Chen Jianghe pretended to be surprised and said with a smile: "There must be a misunderstanding here. Light Chaser is being overwhelmed by Nuomi Group Buying in the Yangtze River Delta market. From the perspective of the battle line, we and Koubei are allies."
What Chen Jianghe meant by this was, first, to pass the buck, and second, to form a united front.
Among the current takeout group buying forces in the Yangtze River Delta market, the top camp is still Nuomi Group Buying, followed by Zhui Guangzhe, then Youxuan Group Buying, Koubei.com and the rising Ele.me.
When Mr. Ma heard the word friendly forces, he grinned and said, "You are an interesting guy. Let's have dinner together some other day and sit down and have a good chat."
As soon as these words were spoken, the group of entrepreneurs following Mr. Ma looked at Chen Jianghe differently.
