Chapter 276 Weird Assistant The next morning, An Ying knocked on the door to wake Luo Yang up. The two had breakfast at the hotel and then went to Naixue’s headquarters. They appeared in the company together, and many people noticed a phenomenon: Assistant An's clothes were still the same as yesterday. Gossip will always be part of company culture. "Xiao Wen, go to the Finance Department and tell them that the boss asked Director Xu to come over." As soon as Luo Yang entered the office, An Ying arranged for Wen Xiaoxiao to call someone: "Ask her to bring last year's financial statements." Then he took the documents that needed Luo Yang's approval and walked straight into the chairman's office. As usual, Luo Yang began to focus on dealing with the accumulated company affairs, while An Ying went to make tea. When the document was half signed and approved, Financial Director Xu Zhenzhen came over with the report materials. "Chairman, Director An." "sit."
Luo Yang raised his head slightly and motioned Xu Zhenzhen to sit down opposite him: "There are still four or five documents. Please wait a few minutes." It’s said to be a few minutes, but it actually goes very quickly. "I heard An Ying talk about the annual financial statements, but we didn't discuss them in detail. Why don't you tell me about the situation first?" Putting down the pen, Luo Yang looked up at Xu Zhenzhen. I drank a little last night, and I was still angry after being teased for several hours in Fu Bin's club, so I didn't call An Ying to the room to discuss things alone. Xu Zhenzhen didn't think too much about it. After handing the report materials in her hand to Luo Yang, she began to report. "Chairman, this is what happened." He held the income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow statement in his hands, but to be honest, apart from a bunch of numbers, Luo Yang really couldn't understand them. Among the several financial statements, only the income statement is simpler, but it gives a general idea of last year's operating performance, which is good. But the balance sheet that follows is a headache. Fortunately, Xu Zhenzhen did not bring these reports for Luo Yang to review, she only brought them to verify the data. The content of her report was still understandable. Luo Yang roughly summarized three meanings: the company's business sales were good last year and it was profitable; a lot of money was spent on investment, but most of the funds were used for store rent and decoration fees, and the scale gain for Naixue was not obvious; the cash flow on the account was too abundant. "What about the financial opinion?" "Loans. Companies use loans to purchase shops in prime locations, which can not only increase fixed assets, but also further increase operating profits." Xu Zhenzhen pushed the frame of her glasses and further explained: "Chairman, loans mean liabilities, and liabilities do not need to be taxed, and the interest generated by loans can be used to offset profits and reduce taxes." The core meaning is that it is beneficial for companies to maintain a certain debt ratio. "But this is the same as..." Luo Yang looked at An Ying in confusion.
If that was all she said, there was no need for her to only say half of it in the car last night. "Boss, the company's articles of association originally drafted stipulate that within the acceptable range of normal business operations, appropriate loans do not require the opinions of other shareholders of the company. However, for some large-scale loans that may have a significant impact on the company's operations or shareholder rights, the articles of association stipulate that the opinions of shareholders must be sought." An Ying reminded: "According to the company's current financial statements, there is sufficient capital in the account, and there is no shortage of money before the second batch of 100 new stores are opened." The implication is that there is no reason to take out a loan when you have ample funds. Unless the company is short of money. Combined with Xu Zhenzhen’s previous report, Luo Yang instantly understood what An Ying meant. Using existing funds in the account to purchase fixed assets such as shops is a business decision, which is within Luo Yang's rights. After the money is spent, it will be within the normal business scope of the company to take out a loan to open the second batch of stores. The appropriate amount of loan can still be decided by Luo Yang alone. "So this money is best spent before March?" An Ying and Xu Zhenzhen both realized that this was Luo Yang's self-talk, so they didn't rush to reply. After muttering, Luo Yang fell into deep thought. Since an appropriate amount of loans is beneficial to the development of the company, this matter can be put on the table for discussion. Why did An Ying still suggest that he circumvent the provisions of the company's articles of association? You have to know that this approach is not fair and may even damage the mutual trust between him and Liu Haishan and others. An Ying, who is always smart, would never come up with such a bad idea. "Boss, if there's nothing else, Director Xu and I will leave first." Just as Luo Yang was lost in thought, An Ying spoke up: "Call me if you need anything." "Ok?" Luo Yang came back to his senses, looked up at the two of them, and after a moment waved his hand, signaling them to leave on their own. The office door was closed by An Ying. "Snapped!" Luo Yang lit a cigarette. He stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling glass window, looking outside the building. This is the CBD of Minhang. There are tall buildings everywhere. Cars and pedestrians are rushing on the crisscrossing roads. A new store has opened not far away. On the inflatable arch, you can vaguely see the words "New Store Opening Discount" There was a huge electronic display screen on the building diagonally opposite, with advertisements flashing on it. The moment Luo Yang swept across the screen, the screen jumped to the Auxue HD Chinese Herbal Herbal Anti-Dandruff Shampoo endorsed by Luo Jialiang. Perhaps because of his deep memory, he overlapped Luo Jialiang and Yip Rongtin at this moment. Naturally, Luo Yang thought of Huo Jingliang, a man with a distinct personality. Then a line from "Genesis" suddenly popped up in my mind: Do I, Huo Jingliang, need you to teach me how to behave and do things? Just this one sentence made me suddenly enlightened! Luo Yang had thought of many reasons before, but he couldn't think of a word. Autocratic! A successful business is often stamped with the entrepreneur's strong personal style, especially in the early stages of its booming development.
A confident entrepreneur is the king of the company. He has the final say in internal decision-making and no one dares to disobey him. Almost overbearing. Of course, all this has a prerequisite, and that is success! Correct decisions time and again prove that the entrepreneur has extraordinary ability and long-term vision. Over a long period of time, this kind of personal prestige accumulates and even forms a kind of superstitious worship. This type of leader is not only found in private enterprises, but can also be often seen in some large enterprises with state-owned backgrounds. As for multi-person decision-making and shareholder consultation, they often occur in companies where the second generation is in power. Or in a mediocre company. Then Is An Ying testing herself? The boss hopes to select an excellent assistant, and wouldn’t an excellent assistant want to follow a powerful boss? Gee. Luo Yang didn’t know whether his inference was correct or not, but just after this thought, he had made up his mind. Why would a milk tea seller engage in heavy assets? In non-manufacturing industries, light assets and cash flow are the king of the future. Loans will be taken out, but the money will not be used to purchase shops. We have a high-end milk tea brand that we sell directly, so why can't we create a mid- to low-end brand and allow franchising? Think about the Mixue Ice City that later opened up in the streets and alleys of Southeast Asia and still achieved a market value of 40 to 50 billion! At this moment, countless inspirations popped up in Luo Yang's mind. He turned back to his desk, put out his cigarette, turned on his computer, and began to write a simple business plan. Luo Yang didn't step out of the office for the entire morning. Instead, it made An Ying outside feel uneasy. Several times, she wanted to find an excuse to knock on the door and see what her boss was doing. Just as she hesitated, the office door in her sight opened. "Please inform the heads of all departments in the company later. A meeting will be held in the conference room at 1:30 pm." Luo Yang walked straight past An Ying. "Boss, what's the topic of the meeting?" “The company’s strategic development direction for the next stage.” After leaving these words, Luo Yang's figure disappeared around the corner of the aisle. The afternoon meeting lasted from 1:30 to 3:30. An hour ago, he called the marketing and operations departments to discuss the new business plan that Luo Yang had developed that morning. I spent half an hour discussing the loan with the finance department, giving priority to commercial banks like Pufa Bank, and then the Big Four banks. Considering the positioning of the new brand, the cost of opening a single store is much lower than Naixue, so the loan amount was initially set at 5000 million. During the remaining time, Luo Yang discussed recruitment matters with the Human Resources Department.
Because the creation of a new brand involves another management team, and because it is a franchise, it even has to set up an investment promotion department. Therefore, the work of the human resources department will not be easy in the next period of time. At the end of the meeting, Luo Yang set the tone for the company's development: light assets, heavy cash flow! When the heads of each department walked out of the meeting room, they all had smiles on their faces. For a company in its expansion phase, opportunities are everywhere, so everyone is full of passion and fighting spirit. Luo Yang returned to the office to pack up his computer. It was not yet four o'clock, so he still had time to rush back to Yang City for dinner. "boss" Soon after, An Ying followed into the office. "Don't worry, I will rush over to attend the company's annual meeting on the day." As Luo Yang stuffed his laptop into his bag, he said, "Regarding the expense, I have already approved the opinion this morning. Since we are going to do it, let's be generous and make it more lively. How can 20 be enough? I approved 100 million!" "Boss, I'm here to ask for criticism." "Ok?" Luo Yang's hand paused. He looked up at An Ying: "What did you do wrong?" It's a bit of a knowing question. "I shouldn't have underestimated my boss." "Can you drink?" Luo Yang teased: "I am indeed not as good as you in this respect." An Ying: “.” Seeing that the assistant didn't say anything, Luo Yang grabbed his computer bag and walked out. There was no time to waste here. Jiang Fan was still waiting for him to come back for dinner. "The boss's vision and courage far exceeded my expectations." Just as Luo Yang was about to walk out of the door, An Ying's voice came from behind him: "But you usually pretend too much..." Although he didn't say it out loud, it definitely meant something like it was too inappropriate. College students are college students, but what's the matter with only coming to the company half a day a week? Even if they work for three days and rest for two days, it's fine too! As for learning golf and drinking on behalf of others, there is no need to mention it. Anyway, none of it is serious. "Well, the vision and courage of an assistant like you far exceeded my expectations." Luo Yang stood still, turned his back to An Ying and said, "People would love to meet a lazy boss, but you are not only testing the edge of death, but also forcing the boss to work hard. Don't worry, after the Spring Festival, I will do as you wish." After saying that, he went out directly. As he walked, he muttered, "I'll tire you out!"
It’s the end of the month, and I’m still more than 4000 away from monthly tickets. Everyone, please work hard and help me increase the monthly tickets. I promise to make up for the chapter that I missed the day before yesterday because I was helping someone fill out their application! (End of this chapter)
