Chapter 18: CEO [Amendment]
Chapter 18: CEO
"Thank you, Mr. Ren, for your praise. I think e-commerce is not suitable for me." Gao Yue responded with a kind smile. The beautiful woman saw a confident atmosphere, but she was neither humble nor arrogant, and she did not feel uneasy or panic because of her youngest age.
The other two candidates were secretly surprised when they saw Ren Hong's appearance. When this young man spoke, he exuded an amazing temperament between the lines. The temperament inside and outside was like a business tycoon scrutinizing. It was really surprising that this would appear among such a young person.
Similarly, when the two men who came to apply for the job heard Ren Hong's words, they couldn't help but look at the woman more. Unexpectedly, the person they thought was not threatening the most was the most threatening opponent.
However, it is worth mentioning that the two men did not notice the strangeness of the moment when the eyes of Ren Hong and Gao Yue intersected. This subtle performance was hidden very deeply, as if it was the gaze of an old acquaintance.
Speaking of Gao Yue's resume, which one of Google and Tencent is not an Internet giant that has over 100 billion US dollars in the city? They think they have had experience in some so-called large companies, but compared with such companies, it is not worth mentioning. Although Gao Yue does not have a formal resume, these resumes are extremely dazzling.
Ren Hong didn't know what the other party was thinking, and he didn't need to know. He smiled and looked around everyone, and finally his eyes fell on Gao Yue, saying, "I have two questions to ask you." Everyone looked at Ren Hong without saying a word. They all knew that it started, and everyone was waiting for the other party's following. The latter pondered for a while and said, "What do you think is the valuation of XlouS?"
After saying that, Ren Hong smiled and looked at the three of them.
Valuation XlouS?
The three people were obviously surprised.
"The instant online translation launched by XlouS is a product with great potential. In this regard, I think the market value of XlouS is no less than RMB 50 billion." The 42-year-old man thought about it and said.
After a while, another man also spoke: "I think there is a market value of US$20 billion, and the potential of instant online mutual translation is far more than 50 billion yuan!"
Ren Hong nodded slightly when he heard this, then looked at Gao Yue and said, "So what Miss Gao thinks?"
Gao Yue was thinking for a while. When she heard Ren Hong's voice, she realized that she lowered her head and was silent for a moment. Finally, she looked at Ren Hong and said, "I'm sorry, I can't calculate it for the time being. I'm not a professional analyst, so I can't answer you quickly."
When Ren Hong heard this, he smiled, looked at Gao Yue more, and then looked around everyone, "The last question." He said: "My initial valuation of XlouS is 3,000 billion US dollars. Do you agree with my point of view?"
After saying that, he looked at the three people with a smile.
3000 billion? Or US dollars!!!
Everyone opened their mouths and didn't know where to start for a moment. The two men looked at each other, obviously feeling extremely surprised. Why is the young man's problem so erratic?
Gao Yue nodded thoughtfully, and none of the three of them answered quickly, while Ren Hong was waiting quietly without any anxious appearance.
After a while, Gao Yue suddenly spoke and said, "I believe it!"
The two men were stunned for a while and looked at Gao Yue, who sat there quietly, revealing his confidence and temperament.
3000 billion US dollars? It's funny. At present, the world's largest company in the world's largest market value, Saudi Aramco, has only 2.5 trillion US dollars. How dare you say 3 trillion? And you, a woman, even echoed that you believe it? Is this flattery?
The two men didn't know how to say it was good.
Ren Hong's eyes suddenly gathered on Gao Yue. He slowly stood up and said to Gao Yue with a smile, "Miss Gao, I now formally invite you to serve as the CEO of our company in the name of the founder and director of XlouS company!" After that, he stretched out his right hand.
When the two men heard this, they were confused in the capital of the two men on the spot.
Gao Yue was stunned when she heard this and showed a beautiful smile. She also stood up from her seat, shook hands with her, and said, "Thank you!"
"Congratulations! Miss Gao!" Ren Hong smiled. At this time, his eyes turned to the two men. When the latter saw Ren Hong's gaze, he immediately smiled awkwardly, and then looked at Gao Yue, "Although it's a pity, congratulations to Miss Gao!" Then he looked at Ren Hong, "Congratulations to Mr. Ren. Since this is the case, I will say goodbye!"
Ren Hong greeted him politely and watched the two leave.
Obviously, Ren Hong’s two problems are his assessment of candidates. The two strange problems seem a bit arrogant, but in fact they have their own considerations.
The first question is that as an executive of a company, an excellent CEO should be down-to-earth, realistic, and see fundamental problems, rather than blindly catering to the requirements of shareholders and making unsure resolutions. Obviously, valuation of a company requires consideration in all aspects, a large amount of data, etc., rather than being able to do it in a few minutes. In Ren Hong's opinion, two men who reported numbers are not down-to-earth and realistic, and he also eliminated them in his heart. They did not think of this at all. They thought of how to answer Ren Hong, but did not see fundamental questions. Gao Yue's answer made Ren Hong very satisfied. This is the embodiment of an excellent CEO, at least what Ren Hong wants.
The second question is that this question is really too floating. After Gao Yue gave the answer, Ren Hong had already confirmed that she would become the CEO of XlouS company. Nothing else was possible. Ren Hong was a person with a strong desire to control. He did not need a CEO who did not act according to his requirements. Even if the CEO was very excellent, he needed a CEO who could perfectly execute his requests. Gao Yue's answers to the two questions around him made him very satisfied.
The first question Gao Yue answered proved that she was an excellent company executive, and the second question proved that she would strictly carry out all tasks assigned by directors, which was wrong in real time. Ren Hong wanted such a CEO.
There were only two people left in the private room. After a brief moment of silence, Ren Hong said again: "So, what are your requirements for treatment?"
"I'm not worried about treatment, I believe you, boss!" Gao Yue said with a charming smile.
Ren Hong thought about it and then smiled: "A annual salary of 6.5 million US dollars! In three years, you will receive 0.5% of the original shares of XlouS. If you sell the joint-stock company, you will get a priority repurchase right at a price of 45% for a premium."
"You are the boss of the biggest party that I have ever met!" Gao Yue was surprised and extremely happy when she heard that she had such a high treatment. This treatment might be ranked among the world. What she didn't know was that in the near future, 0.5% of the shares would make her the highest-paid CEO in the world.
Although Ren Hong is a man with a strong desire to control, he knows that it is particularly important for a company to develop healthily. This is true for each of the initial teams of the company. Now, a founder and company who do not know how to share will not last long and will not develop healthily.
However, just as the two men left, the style suddenly changed.
"Sister Gao! I really didn't expect it to be you. It was so unexpected!" Ren Hong said suddenly. If those two men knew about this situation, they would probably have to spit out old blood. What is the relationship?
However, Ren Hong did not fail to give them a chance. Although he had a certain bias, this was never a reason. As long as you had what I needed, nothing else mattered. Obviously, those two men were not the CEOs that Ren Hong needed.
After this dramatic interview, the two started chatting easily. The two have known each other for almost a year or two. The first time they met was in the library. Ren Hong was famous among several friends when he often went to the library. Gao Yue happened to be the same during that time. The two became familiar with each other. Speaking of which, Gao Yue was considered Ren Hong's senior. Ren Hong had a certain understanding of her and was able to help Microsoft find loopholes. His computer technology must be superb. One day, with a slight interest, he learned about Gao Yue through "impaired" means, and finally came to a conclusion with background!
"By the way, Sister Gao! Now you are my CEO, when will you date me?" Ren Hong said with a smile.
"I haven't seen each other for more than a year. I thought you already have a girlfriend. I'm really dedicated. I was almost moved!" Gao Yue said with a smile when he heard this.
"It seems that you have to work hard when you speak!" Ren Hong said to himself with a 'frustrated' expression.
"There is a very important question!" Gao Yue suddenly said: "The subordinates are the same thing, friends are the same thing, one code is the same. Now you are my boss, do you understand what I mean?"
"I understand~~~" Ren Hong looked helpless and kissed. Gao Yue couldn't help but smile when she saw him like this. She was quite interesting. The boss and junior brother.
