Chapter 160 Settlement
Chapter 160 Settlement
Baixiaosheng is a public platform for the workplace.
But thanks to several events that stirred public opinion, Bai Xiaosheng has also gained a certain amount of media influence.
NetEase likes to reprint news from Bai Xiaosheng. Other websites sometimes reprint news from NetEase. As for the most popular incident like the Working Emperor, many offline media also mentioned Bai Xiaosheng, a platform with a unique name and nature, when discussing the whole story.
Bai Xiaosheng does often have first-hand information.
such as……
Pan Yuhai made another move.
Is there any better information than the person involved revealing it himself?
Similarly, Pan Yuhai chose Bai Xiaosheng in the hope of expanding the impact of his actions in order to achieve a counterattack for control over Zhen Gongfu.
As the second major essay, Pan Yuhai used the conclusion of the audit by a third-party accounting firm, believing that Cai Dabiao was suspected of embezzlement and misappropriation of company funds.
In response to these two items, Pan Yuhai provided clear evidence and posted that Cai Dabao embezzled large sums of money by fictitious contracts for computer systems, kitchenware supply, and advance payment for renovation of affiliated companies.
At the same time, Cai Dabao also planned to negotiate with Zhongshan, one of the investors, to acquire shares, which involved illegal operations of his wholly-owned company.
Finally, Pan Yuhai said that he had already reported the case and persuaded the fugitive Cai Dabao to surrender as soon as possible.
Pan Yuhai was so excited that he directly caused Bai Xiaosheng’s website to freeze!
How did the matter of Zhen Gongfu come to this point...
Wasn’t there a fight a few days ago?
Hey, hey, what was the reason in the first place?
Is it because Dr. Yu ate a bad piece of pork chop when he went to Zhen Gongfu?
From spareribs to absconding, there was also a website rectification in between…
The real attack on the husband is the most tortuous thing since Bai Xiaosheng founded the website!
This trend also caught Yu Xing off guard. He only knew that there were problems between the couple of Zhen Gongfu, but he had no idea what Biaozi's final outcome was, including the fact that the pork ribs problem that was first exposed was also caused by its own employees.
Bai Xiaosheng did not exaggerate. In order to verify the authenticity of the information reported by his employees, he even bought some pork ribs for inspection. He did not fan the flames afterwards, but simply made full use of the platform.
Of course, as a living person, I should be allowed to have some private opinions.
Similarly, Pan Yuhai is an adult and he must have considered the matter thoroughly. He would never kill someone just because of a few words like "Either the east wind prevails over the west wind, or the west wind prevails over the east wind."
Yu Xing's mood was a little complicated. When he thought of Biaozi's current situation, he wanted to squeeze out a few tears.
He told Xiaoying about this feeling, but all he got in return was ridicule.
"I only saw the words crocodile tears before, but today they are concrete." Liu Wanying was amused and advised, "You should think more about yourself. Mr. Cai might be waiting for you somewhere."
Yu Xing disagreed: "The ribs were made by his own relatives. Now it was Pan Yuhai who reported it. If he wants to go to jail, it should be Pan Yuhai. What does it have to do with me?"
"People will hate their opponents, but they may hate people like you who fan the flames even more." Liu Wanying said with a smile, "You know what you have done."
Yu Xing responded with silence.
This sounds reasonable. Why not... go north?
Well, I went north for important business, and by the way, I wanted to observe Biaozi's situation.
Yu Xing quickly confirmed with Lei Weiming the time to visit Liu Hao, CEO of Zhaopin.com, and within two days he flew to Beijing to meet the elite who was expected to become the vice president of his company.
There is no need to discuss the matter, the tendency is already obvious.
If Liu Hao wants to come to Bai Xiaosheng, he needs to settle the non-compete agreement. If he has no such interest, he will not agree to the request for a meeting.
Therefore, Yu Xing had a rough idea of what was going on before he even met Liu Hao in person.
When they actually met, things went even more smoothly than he had imagined. Liu Hao's attitude was very humble, and he did not act like a senior at all. Instead, he talked very frankly about the current situation in the industry.
We are basically at the bottom now, but as to whether there is a deeper bottom, no one can tell.
It might not be a good choice for Bai Xiaosheng to rush in at this time.
"Mr. Liu, I believe the economy will recover," Yu Xing said. "But no matter what the economic situation is, recruiting is a must for Bai Xiaosheng. It's better to do it sooner rather than later. In this case, there is nothing to be afraid of. I am mentally prepared for losses, and I have solid investment friends."
Liu Hao looked at the young man in front of him, thinking about what he said, and subconsciously sighed: "Investors' attitudes will change."
"Although I haven't had much contact with them, domestic investors may be more familiar with the situation than foreign investors," said Yu Xing. "For example, our three current institutional shareholders, IDG, Capital Today, and Qiming Venture Partners, are all waiting for the opportunity of the B round. Bai Xiaosheng is not just engaged in recruitment business. We want to try to develop a more comprehensive workplace platform, and the same is true for revenue direction."
Liu Hao nodded slightly, and then pondered, "I have also talked with Wei Ming about Mr. Yu's website these two days. We have a common idea that the recruitment business actually comes more from the company's end. Bai Xiaosheng's current means of acquiring customers will indeed have a certain impact."
"Mr. Liu, I am not unwilling to change this point, but the first attribute of Bai Xiaosheng is a workplace platform. Under this attribute are the revenues of different sections. Whether we should change the first attribute for the sake of part of the revenue is worth discussing." Yu Xing first drew a circle and then said, "However, this does not mean that I do not value the recruitment environment. My idea is that most companies that recruit people pay more attention to whether they can find the right person quickly."
"If Baixiaosheng can use its huge customer base to quickly match the requirements of the enterprise side, I believe the benefits of this convenience will outweigh the disadvantages of the nature of our platform."
"In addition, we don't want to become a big man in one bite. I don't know if Mr. Liu has paid attention to the development of smart phones. The mobile wave in the next two to three years will be very fierce. This is a good opportunity for us to catch up with the market."
Yu Xing added: "If Mr. Liu comes, we can discuss providing more comprehensive information. I think 58.com has a lot of information. Can we extract the essence of it, like..."
He thought for a while and gave an example: "I know that many college students look for internship opportunities through agencies. Can we provide high-quality and low-cost services? After all, there are millions of new college students every year. There must be room for development in this regular growth."
Liu Hao mentally digested what Mr. Yu said, nodded again, and agreed: "Well, I know that Mr. Yu started out by selling products to college students. College students are cheap and good, so this kind of connection can be considered. It belongs to a sinking market."
Yu Xing controlled his expression and said, "Who told you that I started my career by cutting off college students? Who was it?"
You haven't entered the company today, Mr. Liu. I don't blame you for saying that.
After you join the company, Xiao Liu...
He raised his cup, took a sip of tea, and moistened his throat. "In short, what I mean is that Mr. Liu's first job at Bai Xiaosheng is of course to build a recruitment business system, but it can not only be limited to this circle, but also use the Bai Xiaosheng workplace platform to open up more possibilities."
Yu Xing looked at Liu Bo and mentioned his concerns: "There is a problem now. I heard that Mr. Liu has a non-compete agreement."
Liu Bo nodded and admitted: "Indeed, this was signed when Seek Company invested. They have clearly told me that they hope I will resign on my own initiative."
Yu Xing asked seriously, "Does Mr. Liu have a solution?" Liu Bo picked up the teacup but did not drink it. After thinking for a while, he said, "The agreement can be terminated. There are currently two groups of people in the company. No matter which side, they all hope to take over the position of CEO. I will send a message to everyone and hold a meeting. I will negotiate compensation and terminate the agreement with a seal. The problem is... whether the subsequent effectiveness can be maintained and whether this method can be supported by law."
Yu Xing roughly understood what Mr. Liu meant, the information gap... implying that both sides would recommend the other party to be the CEO or fill the vacant position, and then hold a meeting to agree on it, forming a collective decision, which would be written in black and white.
Liu Bo held the teacup and pondered, "The risk is still relatively high. If there is no legal support..."
Yu Xing looked at Mr. Liu and suddenly said, "Mr. Liu, I will pay you in cash."
Liu Bo sighed, this reduced some of the risk.
He immediately said, "Even if there is no subsequent legal support, I believe that the brothers from Zhaopin.com can work together to do a good job in recruitment. I heard Wei Ming talk about the program "If You Are the One", which is indeed quite consistent with Bai Xiaosheng's plan and will be a good promotional entry point."
At this time, Yu Xing expressed his wish that Liu Bo would also go on stage.
Liu Bo looked at Yu Xing in surprise, and after thinking for a while, he said, "Wei Ming can do this. He doesn't have a non-compete agreement, and he has already asked me to resign. How about this? When my company has made arrangements, he will also resign. I will then use the show to create a hot topic and start recruiting business. It would be best to pull the bosses on the stage into the platform first."
Yu Xing smiled and said, "Then let Mr. Lei do some of the work first, and then wait for Mr. Liu to come."
Liu Bo nodded and stretched out his right hand: "Mr. Yu, Bai Xiaosheng is a brand new workplace platform. I really hope to work with Mr. Yu to create the glory of Bai Xiaosheng."
Yu Xing shook hands repeatedly, delighted that this experienced senior could jump over.
Of course, this joy did not prevent him from studying the predicament of Zhilian Recruitment after meeting Liu Bo, and he even directly asked Lei Weiming who had resigned quickly.
The veteran is indeed a veteran who can bring in a lot of manpower and build a team quickly. However, as a CEO, Zhaopin.com also needs to learn lessons from its consecutive losses.
Lei Weiming didn't expect that after meeting his old boss, Mr. Yu would talk to him about this...
He thinks more when he is silent.
Mr. Yu is very young, but he still needs to put himself in the right position. He is his own boss now, and Mr. Liu is just his old superior.
Bai Xiaosheng will accept a group of people from Zhilian Zhaopin if nothing unexpected happens. Will there be a risk of such a group of people forming a group? Do they need someone to provide some checks and balances?
Lei Weiming himself comes from a sales background and is good at understanding other people's minds by switching positions.
He made a decision quickly and tried to present his views on the gains and losses of Zhilian Zhaopin as objectively as possible. He said that his old boss definitely had contributions, but he also had to bear some responsibilities.
If the CEO is not responsible, who is?
After listening to Lei Weiming's analysis, Yu Xing didn't say much, but just sighed: "No business is easy. Fortunately, our Bai Xiaosheng Club is a fresh start. Fortunately, Mr. Liu and you will pay attention to the lessons of the past. This is the brightest development."
Lei Weiming solemnly stated that he would pay attention to the lessons learned from Zhilian Recruitment's development.
After meeting Liu Bo and Lei Weiming, Yu Xing got a list of people who might come. After hesitating, he did not go to visit Bi Sheng, whose headquarters is in Beijing. The investment in Letao.com came from the discussion between Xiaoying and himself.
Xiaoying previously traveled to the south and conducted on-site research on the development of Vipshop and the clearance situation of many brands. She then compared the current situation of Letao.com and raised certain questions.
In addition to Bi Sheng’s own performance, we will just observe first. Originally, I was hoping to invest in LeTao after it achieved results.
Yu Xing stayed in Beijing for two days and then boarded a flight back to Shanghai.
Before he boarded the plane, he received good news: Biaozi was arrested...
According to the information on his own website, Biaozi was arrested on the way to the police station. Well, he claimed that he turned himself in, but I don't know if this counts as a successful surrender. Before he was arrested, he appointed his sister as the chairman of the company.
However, Cai Dabao’s sister Cai Chunhong had never held a position in the company before.
By the time Yu Xing arrived in Shanghai, things had already made new progress. Pan Yuhai publicly questioned the legality and rationality of Cai Chunhong's appointment. At the same time, he called on the other two institutional shareholders that allowing Cai Chunhong to serve as chairman would only further undermine the company's development.
He also said that his sister had filed a lawsuit regarding the 25% equity dispute in Zhen Gongfu involved in the divorce, and formally requested a redivision.
Biaozi went to jail, his sister had never run a business, some of the shares were questionable, and the real husband was in jeopardy...
Who else can I choose at this time?
After seeing the latest news, Yu Xing believed that the outcome of this matter was basically a foregone conclusion.
He had just arrived at the company that afternoon when he received a call from Xu Xin a few days later.
Compared to the anger in the previous times, the voice on the phone this time was obviously frustrated.
"Cai Dabao is probably going to go in." Xu Xin came up and started talking about really attacking her husband.
"You don't need to talk to me about this." Yu Xing said.
"Pan Yuhai gave me the audit report, which must be true, which means that the relevant charges are established." Xu Xin sighed, "I have no choice but to support Pan Yuhai."
Yu Xing comforted him, "A blessing in disguise. If Cai Dabiao was the right choice, how could Zhen Gongfu have a problem with his ribs?"
Xu Xin was silent for a long time: "I hope so."
But she couldn't help but fantasize: "If you had told me at the beginning..."
Xu Xin reviewed the development of the matter. If Bai Xiaosheng had informed the matter in advance and Zhen Gongfu had handled and rectified the situation quickly and secretly, perhaps Pan Yuhai would not have been given the opportunity to make trouble. Now, no matter what others do, Today Capital is bound to be the loser.
"Next time..." Yu Xing said in a comforting tone.
Xu Xin breathed a sigh of relief: "Really?"
Yu Xing was silent for two seconds, then sighed, "Boss Xu, I'll just comfort you, and you can just listen to me. Why do you have to keep asking me this question?"
Xu Xin was speechless, but she was not that angry. There couldn't be a worse situation than really attacking her husband.
Career always requires looking forward.
