Chapter 201: Eye-opening
Not to mention how Yang Xing fooled Wang Shufu and Ma Huateng in Shenzhen, it was certainly more important to acquire BYD and the future Tencent in the group at one time than to open the annual meeting. It was only three days after the annual meeting of Zhongxing International that Yang Xing hurried back, bringing good news to the overall acquisition of BYD and the upcoming new network company.
What is different from last year is that in addition to reporting the annual operating conditions of each company, the theme of this year's annual meeting also focused on the integration between multiple companies acquired this year and the cooperation between new and old personnel. In fact, internationally, experts have always been mostly pessimistic about large-scale acquisitions, especially cross-border acquisitions.
Because the corporate cultures vary greatly between different companies, the business strategies are completely different. It is definitely not as simple as 1+1=2 when merged into several companies. The most troublesome thing in the world is dealing with people. As the saying goes, over 100 people, there are all kinds of people, hundreds of people with different languages, and it is not necessary to gather together for meetings. Moreover, they have to work together for a long time. In addition, who will take on new positions after the merger, who will be eliminated, whether the business strategy of the new company needs to be adjusted, etc., require a lot of running-in time. Many internationally renowned companies are depressed due to various trivial matters during the running-in period and have fallen out of the leading position in the industry.
Fortunately, the establishment of various subsidiaries of Zhongxing International is still short, and there is no rigid and rigid management structure formed within those long-term old-fashioned companies, and there is no condescending attitude towards newly acquired company employees. However, other problems mentioned above still exist, and with the rapid expansion of the company's scale, the number of elites from five continents and different nationalities and languages has also increased. Small frictions such as customs and habits appear from time to time, seriously delaying work efficiency. At this annual meeting, this issue was listed separately to attract the attention of senior management.
In addition to personnel issues, another striking problem is the redefinition of the specific business scope between these subsidiaries. The trend of modern industrial development is the continuous emergence of advanced technologies across disciplines and departments, and the traditional industrial boundaries are gradually blurring. Most internationally renowned multinational companies have more than one business, and some business turnovers that seem far from their main business also exceed the main business. For example, the financial financing departments of GE and GM in the United States, their annual turnover even exceeds General Electric's traditional electrical manufacturing industry and General Motors' automobile production departments.
For Zhongxing International, like the newly established network department, it is a matter of great difficulty to consider whoever is under the jurisdiction of the newly established network department. Xingguang Entertainment, Xingdou Research Institute and Xingyun Electronics seem to be in the middle. The company's most important projects now - the construction of the five major star cities, park management, infrastructure construction, commissioning and installation of production equipment and environmental safety assessment. After the industrial park is built, how to efficiently improve the efficiency of the industrial chain, shorten the length of the supply chain, and improve production efficiency through technological improvement rather than squeezing workers' labor, etc. all require careful analysis. There are many subsidiaries involved, and how to coordinate and manage them is a big problem.
Although Yang Xing has huge advantages in rebirth, he understands his boundaries. In his previous life, he was just an ordinary white-collar worker. Even if he has insight beyond the times, it cannot cover up his shortcomings of poor basic abilities. For technical problems in professional fields, he will hold monthly or even weekly high-level coordination meetings, try to brainstorm and give full play to the thinking of professionals to solve them collectively. As a result, he has also been recognized by the company's employees as being approachable and well-behaved.
The lively annual meeting lasted for a week, which is also a rare opportunity for new and old executives to get closer and better understand. For example, at the last night's Christmas dinner, Kazuo Wada and Soichiro Fujino, who were less than 40, talked about the company's new year plan with Ma Sanqi, Wang Shufu and others about the company's new year plan. At the next party, the employee gathering of the Internet company, which was temporarily named Xingdong, Ma Huatou, who was still nervous, discussed with Wu Haijun, CEO of Nebula Electronics, whether the QQ software developed for computers can be integrated into the company's upcoming smartphone software with PDA function.
But Yang Xing was obviously in poor condition tonight. He seemed to be in a bad state. He only stayed for a while and declared that he had not recovered and went home to rest early. But the Mercedes-Benz he was in did not directly cross the sea from the hotel to Taiping Mountain, but turned toward the Repulse Bay. In the car, Yang Xing quickly changed into a formal tuxedo. At this time, he was energetic and did not look like he was infected. Liao Qing and Wang Yiren beside him were helping him clean up, while saying to him jealously: "Is it really necessary to attend such a party? We have seen it in Beijing back then. It was very vulgar. We dare not go there for the boss to offer a high price. The guys inside were all perverts and enjoyed to torture women. That old guy Zheng Qingshou must have no good intentions."
After hearing this, Yang Xing pinched Wang Yiren's chin and said, "Don't worry! Cen Guohua accompanied me this time. He is an old player. This kind of gathering of wind and moon is a paradise for men. What they want is safety and secrets. When the boat will sail into the high seas, our people will follow behind. Zheng Qingshou doesn't have the courage to take action. He also wants to ask me to help him. This time, it's a rare opportunity to find out Zheng Qingshou's end. With Tan Meichang as an undercover agent, don't worry about her beauty eating me. Besides, your husband's appearance is a handsome man trick, I'm afraid no one can take it!"
Guo Ying opposite him burst out laughing, "Don't put gild on her face. You men will naturally run fast when you hear such a place. You are also undercover! Mei Chang and I are old friends, but I never knew she had such a bloody and tears. Everyone is a worldly person. I have only heard of this kind of party for a long time, but I have never seen it. Today you are back to tell us what makes you men obsessed. You must know that the entry fee is 10,000, and the membership is at least 300,000. Let's see if it's worth the money."
They are talking about the invitation letter to the Hieros Camos party on Christmas Eve delivered by Tan Meichang on behalf of Zheng Qingshou a few days ago. This English word initially made Yang Xing, including Guo Ying and others confused. Tan Meichang was also vague and said that only men could go there, and it would be better not to bring women, but this trip was definitely worth it.
Yu Aojun read the invitation repeatedly before explaining to them that this is actually an invitation to a party. It is more popular in Europe and the United States. Participants are generally so-called people with status in society, and the location is very secretive. The party provides a place where people can completely release the most evil ones in their hearts. The most conspicuous scene is that the participating men and women are wearing masks, women are naked, and men and women chase each other and ask for pleasure with strangers at will. This is a feast of depravity.
Yu Aojun explained: "Hieros Camos is Greek and represents the meaning of a sacred wedding. This kind of gathering is usually covered with a layer of religious cloak. In early Western religions, including Greek mythology and Jewish doctrine, there were rituals of priestesses who had sex with men to communicate directly with gods. There were countless examples of cross-breeding gods and mortals in Greek mythology. It was not until the rise of Catholicism that this custom was abandoned. But in fact, there are more than a dozen secret groups with a long history in Europe and the United States that still retain this traditional sexual ritual."
She continued to say that after the hippies in the 1960s and 1970s, the religious colors in this sexual ritual became weaker, and the free and indulgent colors gradually spread to the world. Japan, across the sea, developed similar dark gatherings of abuse against women. Hong Kong is greatly influenced by Western culture, and it is quickly accepted for such so-called indulgent gatherings of senior European and American people. Zheng Qingshou, with the sign of the party, used his small stars and models to satisfy the evil thoughts of many upper-class people.
After she finished speaking, everyone looked at her with admiration. The other women only knew that she was the personal bodyguard and secretary invited by Yang Xingxin. Unexpectedly, she had such extensive experiences and even knew Greek and ancient religious rituals that few people were interested in. It seemed that Yang Xing asked her to be worth the money, not just a vase. The women around him faced this woman who valued both beauty and wisdom and had a mysterious relationship with her identity.
Yang Xing was so happy that he was so happy that a wolf howled in his heart: "Eyes open, eyes open!" At this time, the great British director Kubrick was filming his last classic film "Eyes Open", before his death. The male and female pig feet in it were the most popular Hollywood "Golden Boy and Jade Girl" Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman. After Yang Xing joined the work, he spent dozens of yuan to secretly buy the pirated disc of the movie and enjoyed it excitedly at home. Although the plot of this film is dull and the narrative is unclear, you can see the ** of Tom Brother and Tom Sister Kidman, as well as the grand Hieros Camos party scene, and finally get the ticket price back.
The men were dressed in a well-dressed cloak, and the women wandered around without any trace, and were caring everywhere. The last scene of many men and women wearing masks similar to those in the Venetian Carnival was unforgettable for a long time. He didn't expect that he would have the opportunity to experience it in this life. After Yu Aojun's explanation, he would have to make a breakthrough even in the dragon and tiger den.
Of course, the carnival needs to be attended, and the important things must not be forgotten. He found the Cen brothers who were familiar with this kind of gathering, inquired about the specific situation of the party, and contacted Tan Meichang to understand the specific situation of the party operation. Tan Meichang revealed that this party was learned by Zheng Qingshou from Japan. For the need of confidentiality and concealment, he rented a retired gambling boat from a casino owner in Macau. At each party, he drove the gambling boat to the high seas. On the high seas, it was a blank space in the laws of Hong Kong and other places. These VIPs could do whatever they wanted. At the same time, gambling, drugs and other entertainment activities were also provided on the gambling boat, and people could completely indulge here. Zheng Qingshou also installed hidden surveillance devices everywhere on the boat, recording all the ugly behaviors of these ordinary hypocritical big men as a certificate for him to extort in the future.
Yang Xing and the others believed that Zheng Qingshou attached so much importance to the concealment of the ship, and it was likely that he would hide the tape he secretly recorded and the basis for his interactions with Zhang Ziqiang and others. After all, a mobile vault makes it hard to think of getting close to him. Although Tan Meichang usually has the title of Zheng Qingshou's fourth concubine, he cannot board the ship except for parties. Yang Xing and the others wanted to take this opportunity to divert Zheng Qingshou's attention and wait for an opportunity to board the ship to find out the secret of Zheng Qingshou and give him a fatal blow.
