: Keep a line in everything you do
Listening to the string song will give you an idea of its elegance.
Zhao Rongzhen realized the hint in Jin Shang's words immediately.
"Thank you, Mr. Xiao Jin, for your understanding."
Sister Zhao expressed her gratitude with a smile.
These days, an off-road vehicle costing around 200,000 yuan is really not affordable for ordinary citizens. Although Editor Zhao's family is relatively well-off, he is not luxurious enough to buy a car.
Raising three children is not an easy task. There is an old one and a young one. The daily expenses make this dual-income family feel a bit overwhelmed.
If this were not the case, Sister Zhao would not leave the child to her grandparents, and she would work hard to make money outside.
Next, the two discussed the main content of tomorrow's newspaper. The sales volume of "Jingxi Metropolis Daily" today was similar to yesterday. Nearly 130,000 copies were sold in the morning, and it is estimated that it will be sold out one after another in the afternoon.
.
As a tabloid in the Gyeonggi region, its sales volume can only be considered average, incomparable to media giants with circulations of several million or tens of millions. But as a metropolitan newspaper that serves the local area, it is barely passable.
When Jin Shang flipped through a piece of news titled "Beijing International Garden is very popular, 25 hot spring villas were sold out", the subtitle clearly read "The rich man from Northern Hubei rushed to the house overnight after hearing the news and spent a lot of money to buy a house for his daughter"
, couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Seeing the boss's expression was different, Zhao Rongzhen explained:
"This is a press release sent from the reporter's station, and the other party paid for it very generously."
"Well, I don't have a problem with this. Newspapers also want to make money, and it is a good thing to increase the page fee."
Jin Shang waved his hand to reassure Editor Zhao.
"Newspapers are different from others. They are dancing with shackles. Especially tabloids like ours, which are published on the edge, are walking on thin ice. If you are not careful, you may be 'killed' by the regulatory authorities. Therefore, current affairs news and editorials
Be extra careful, this kind of..."
Jin Shang flicked the paid draft and said with a chuckle:
"It makes money, it's not shabby."
The news of the group buying a house was in the newspapers so quickly. Even the house purchase by Li Xuan and his family was regarded as an advertising gimmick for the developer. It is really ridiculous.
These days, the newly developed villas cannot attract the top wealthy. The middle class in Beijing are not very interested in the petty hot spring villas like Beijing International Garden. The rise of the new wealthy class has only been in the past few years.
In five or six years' time, that villa area won't have to advertise in newspapers to attract customers.
For a real high-end villa area, there is no need to worry about no one buying it. It is the developer's job to screen out the customers who are qualified to move in. People like the Jin family and his son are not even close to the mainstream circles in Beijing. Otherwise, they will not be included in the area.
My eyes are set on the shabby urban villa.
The two chatted and laughed easily, and after going over the main content and making sure it was correct, they ended the work meeting.
Before leaving, Jin Shang glanced at Zhao Rongzhen with his newly activated ability. He was surprised to find that the light white human-shaped halo with average to above average comprehensive ability was added with a light green halo symbolizing friendliness, and it exuded the same color as the "golden broom"
The silver-white energy shield that came out and covered most of the office building became more closely connected.
"The sense of belonging is stronger, the work is more dedicated, and the qualifications and efficiency are also improved. It turns out that abilities are not static!"
That's right, people will grow and their ideas will change. Even if they have outstanding abilities but no passion for work, or the company's management system cannot stimulate the enthusiasm of employees, it will be useless to recruit more professional talents with high salaries.
"We need to start preparing for the position level and promotion management system."
Nowadays, the company is not very big. Jin Shang can name almost every employee, including temporary workers, and he knows most of them's family situations quite well.
In the future, it will develop and expand, and there will be hundreds, thousands or even tens of thousands of people. How can it be possible to remember them all clearly?
Even if there is a "gold finger" to help classify and make a list, Jin Shang will not be able to understand it. The only people who can directly manage it are a few familiar executives.
It seems that in order to cooperate with Jin Shang's understanding ability, although "Golden Finger" does not provide a specific digital panel, it still uses relatively intuitive color depths to assist Jin Shang's understanding.
The qualifications and abilities of most employees are maintained between white and gray. Zheng Liangzhi, Huang Yiyi, and Zhao Rongzhen belong to the more conspicuous bright white. What makes Jin Shang most satisfied is Wang Yan, the editor-in-chief of "Zhiyin Zatan".
The bright red color that radiated from his body seemed to be like a flame, and seemed to dye the surrounding colleagues into a layer of sunset.
This is consistent with Jin Shang's initial vague perception of seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune.
However, when Jin Shang tried to transfer Wang Yan to the publishing and external relations department, the fiery red color on her body quickly faded, a dark gray almost black light emerged, and her connection to the company's network was also shaky and unstable.
.
Failure to place talents in the right position will not only fail to bring their abilities into full play, but will also seriously dampen their enthusiasm and even lead to their thoughts of leaving the company.
From today's attempt, Jin Shang roughly understood the company's current status.
In just three months, Jinxi Culture, which has generated revenue of nearly 2 million, is essentially in disarray. The basic framework supported by Zheng Liangzhi, Huang Yiyi and the employees of the former football club is actually quite fragile.
The family property inherited by the old father will be handed over to the son sooner or later. It is normal to invest some money and let the heir start a company to practice.
Not everyone is as confident as Jin Shang, thinking that they can find big gold mines in the new industry of the Internet.
Compared with the "floating money" earned from Internet cafes, the success of "Jingxi Metropolis Daily" and "Zhiyin Zatan" allows employees to recognize Jin Shang's leadership abilities.
There are real things that can be seen and touched, unlike Internet cafes. I don’t know the reason, but they suddenly become popular. I don’t know if they will fail when they will, leaving only chicken feathers on the ground.
The human mind is like this. It has the idea of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, and always tends to stay away from people and things outside of its cognition.
"That's fine...! Fortunately, I have a "golden finger" that can save me a lot of detours."
Instead of envying others for their crouching dragons and phoenixes, the Five Tiger Generals, and the Eighteen Arhats, it is better to make good use of these seemingly ordinary mediocre people under your command.
Most of the management philosophies that Lao Jin taught Xiao Jin were actually outdated. Jin Shang only agreed with the people-oriented thing.
"Therefore, the officials of the Ming Dynasty, the prime minister must be from the state department, and the fierce generals must be from the army. Who knows if there are great talents hidden in the company that have not been discovered yet? If you want to win people's hearts, you must let employees and the company grow together.
, rather than treating them as firewood, burning them out and then discarding them like worn-out shoes.”
Jin Shang, who felt that he had benefited a lot today, planned to go to the club to have a look after finishing the official documents that needed urgent approval.
Normal training on Monday starts at 10 a.m., with adaptive training after warm-up; there is a running-in training match after lunch.
The technical director was informed in advance that he would arrange for scouts to inspect the players to be introduced. For each position, Jin Shang would be provided with two to three candidates, and Jin Shang would then select one of them to focus on after weighing the competitive level and commercial value.
As for how to confirm the roster, that is the job of the head coach and technical director. Jin Shang is not willing to stretch his hands randomly in such an unfamiliar professional field.
If you go now, you probably won’t see much success. Jin Shang is quite satisfied with the situation of the first team. The problem is the youth training. According to young coach Yan Xiaohong, the young players of the youth team, the most outstanding ones, are facing the prospect of being poached.
risk.
Jin Shang has not yet learned about the specific situation. He has to talk to the parties involved and their parents.
After saying hello to Zheng Liangzhi and Huang Yiyi, Jin Shang took his time and came to the youth training base. This place is about three to four hundred meters away from the football park and is only separated from the home team's training ground by a wall.
After sitting down in the youth team coach's office, Yan Xiaohong discussed something with several parents who were negotiating. When she learned that the little boss was coming, she hurriedly came over to report.
"what happened?"
"Mr. Xiao Jin, originally the change of youth training players is a normal thing, and I shouldn't trouble you to deal with it personally. However, this time, three of the most promising kids jointly proposed excessive conditions to the club, so I feel that the matter
Something is wrong..."
"Has this happened before?"
Yan Xiaohong nodded.
"Either other clubs are poaching, or there are people who are collaborating to get benefits. This is not an example. If we compromise when others make trouble, will we do it again next time we are dissatisfied?"
Cut five cities today, cut ten cities tomorrow, and then have a good night’s sleep!
What is the use?
Greed is infinite. The more satisfied you are today, the more frequent you will be asked for tomorrow.
"Is it the parents or the children who are making trouble?"
Yan Xiaohong replied:
"Children usually don't show any particular dissatisfaction, but parents react very strongly."
"Then it's probably poaching from other clubs! Is our youth training famous? Have we produced any great players in the past?"
Yan Xiaohong shrugged helplessly, her attitude representing the answer.
Also, among the community teams that have been in low-level leagues all year round, one of the most outstanding achievements in youth training was once selected for the national youth team. Unfortunately, they did not play on behalf of the country and were abandoned after a few training camps.
Others are basically self-produced and used, and those who can be used as substitutes for top league teams after transfer are rare.
Could it be said that a golden phoenix can really fly out of this broken chicken coop?
Three more appear at once?
If he really had such a great talent, his reputation would have spread to Jin Shang's ears long ago.
"Are those kids still at the training ground? I want to see them!"
Jin Shang asked Yan Xiaohong to continue arguing with the parents and try to delay as much time as possible, while he quietly came to the side of the training ground. Through the barbed wire fence, under the prompts of the staff, he found three children who were sweating profusely doing basic training.
.
They all look young, sixteen or seventeen years old. Judging from their appearance, they are not much younger than Jin Shang. What they lack is the youthful and mature temperament.
