On the third day, Chen Qingshuang made a rough summary of the conversation between Jing Gao and Tang Xuan in the car, about 5,000 words, and used it as an internal document of the Phoenix Group. The speech was made with Jing Gao's consent.
Issued in the name of the President’s Office.
After Jing Gao talked about Phoenix Group's status in the world and its position among Internet giants, he also added some comparative parts.
“Uber’s current valuation in the capital market is around US$50 billion. Phoenix Group controls such a giant in the travel field, why do I think we can be on the same level as Baidu?
The reason lies in the prestige created by Phoenix Fund! In the Internet world, the status of venture capital is very important. The stocks of many Internet giants are in the hands of venture capital and capital. Basically, the venture capital in the Internet field is controlled by me.
Repaired.
Phoenix Fund is a venture capital firm on the same level as Alibaba Capital and Tencent Investment Department!
Over the past year, we have invested in Bilibili, controlled Sina, Weibo, invested in Insight Network and other targets. Of course, the most important ones are the two projects we are currently incubating: Orange Takeaway and Xiaoyuan Bicycle."
"Baidu's current stock price is hovering around US$180, and its overall market value is about US$62 billion. As an old Internet giant, in addition to search, they still have many Internet tracks. For example: Baidu Maps, iQiyi, Baidu Cloud
, autonomous driving, etc.
But they fell short in foreign investment. After Lu Qi became CEO, they proposed all in ai. Overall, Baidu is going downhill. The advantages of their core search technology, in the context of mobile Internet and big data applications,
It is being weakened. Unless autonomous driving can be popularized within five years.”
"So, what is our advantage over Byte Slider? Douyin far surpasses Kuaishou and other platforms in the field of short videos. And its other core application, Jinri Toutiao, is comparable to Weibo in the public opinion field, and its momentum is slightly weaker.
Our Phoenix Group currently owns Uber and Phoenix Pay. From this point of view, we are stronger than Byte Slide!
To sum up, we rank third or fourth in the current Internet arena."
…
…
After this internal document was issued, it aroused great repercussions in the Phoenix Group. Many posts appeared on the intranet community "Wutong" discussing the matter hotly.
"Shocked! It turns out we are so awesome! Is this the neglect of public opinion or the loss of people's hearts? The title should be long and long!"
"Third or fourth, that's the question."
"If you drain Mr. Jing's bowl of Ganges water, you will be a Phoenix man in the next life!"
"If heaven had not given birth to my great phoenix, China would have been like a long night."
The 50th floor of the China World Trade Center Phase 3 is where the headquarters of the Phoenix Group is located. As he was getting off work on Thursday afternoon, Yu Jiashi was sitting in his office, drinking tea and browsing hot posts on the "Wutong Community", happily.
Although he attended China Europe Business School with senior executives of Jinggao Group, the 26-year-old was very satisfied with the current situation and is now a middle-level leader at the group headquarters. His grade is P7.
Phoenix Group's job grades range from p1-p13. Different job grades include different salaries, bonuses, and options. Companies in the industry have job grades and divisions. For example, Alibaba has technical routes from p1-p13 and management routes M1-M10.
.
Baidu is T1-T11. Tencent and JD.com all have grades starting with "T", "M", and "P".
There was some controversy over whether Phoenix Group chose "p" or "F" as the initials. Later, Jing Gao decided to follow the rules of the industry and set it as levels p1-p13. This is a bit like a fantasy sect, which has to set levels.
Grade.
On the one hand, it is to arrange remuneration and provide benefits; on the other hand, it is to motivate employees to work hard and separate them into different levels.
Of course, one year after Phoenix Group was founded, this grade classification is expected to continue to be adjusted in the future.
"Brother Yu, I went to have dinner after get off work. Ah, you are also reading the posts on the Wutong Forum!"
Although Yu Jiashi has a high rank and an annual salary of one million, he actually does not have much real power. He oversees more than 20 people and works very leisurely. His office is in a public office area. This will speak to him.
They are subordinates who usually hang out together.
There is a big difference between the company and the system. Most people’s interactions outside of work do not always involve levels.
Within a department, it is not uncommon for a director to have a good relationship with several subordinates and often have meals together.
The man who could talk was one of Yu Jiashi's subordinates, a young man with whom he usually played games and basketball.
"Hehe. Isn't this just looking at Tu Yile? The post by the person whose ID is 'Elegant Princess' is quite interesting!" Yu Jiashi stood up, took the label and walked out of the office area with his subordinates, preparing to find a place.
Have a meal.
No one from the working class will go to Guomao restaurants to eat all day long. There are also many small and medium-sized restaurants in the nearby streets.
"Haha, Brother Yu, the third or fourth post she posted is quite literary and artistic. It's very Versailles! But to be honest, this document issued by the President's Office really shocked us low-level employees.
"
Yu Jiashi said funny: "What's so shocking about this? Our overall strength is stronger than Baidu, right?"
The subordinate said: "Brother Yu, then we have to add other businesses! Recently, the group has been split and integrated. We defined ourselves as an Internet company, and then suddenly rushed to the third or fourth position.
Hi! It’s quite unexpected. It’s also quite enjoyable!”
"That's because the headquarters doesn't have much control over Uber. The board of directors at Uber holds a meeting and the strategies and policies are set. So, we don't feel deeply about it!"
The two of them walked out of the elevator while talking. Several white-collar workers in the elevator quietly looked at their backs with envy.
China World Trade Center Phase 3 is full of very powerful companies. However, among such a group of companies, Phoenix Group is still considered the top! The employees at the Phoenix Group headquarters are certainly enviable to them.

Magic City.
Wang Hanjun is already in the second semester of his junior year, and his classes are getting easier. He and Zhang Li study in the library late at night.
But she was carrying an Apple laptop, her white fingers tapping the keyboard softly, and replying on the Wutong Forum.
Her ID is "Her Royal Highness the Elegant Princess". She is replying to the post.
As a sophomore student, Zhang Li was still struggling to write homework after class. Fudan University had a very heavy study task. Taking advantage of the break from completing advanced mathematics classes, Zhang Li tilted his head and glanced at Wang Hanjun's computer screen.
"Ah, Sister Hanjun, has everything been transmitted to the network outside the company?"
Wang Hanjun tapped the keyboard with his fingers and chatted with people on Webo with a smile on his face. "Someone forwarded articles from the intranet to Webo, Toutiao, and various forums. This kind of internal open letter basically cannot be kept secret."
She can be angry with Brother Jing, but no one is allowed to scold him.
Zhang Li laughed and said: "Are there many people paying attention? I heard that Huawei also often publishes internal documents. It is rarely seen on the Internet. It is only circulated and commented on in their internal community."
Wang Hanjun said with emotion: "Phoenix Group has a lot of attention! If there is attention, of course someone is willing to post it to attract attention. This is an Internet company!
Brother Jing has just swallowed up the financial business of Haiyi Group. The assets and influence of Phoenix Financial have skyrocketed. In fact, from my own point of view, there is no controversy at all in ranking third."
The two of them discussed in low voices. The night outside the library slowly flowed away.
Phoenix Group's influence among the public is slowly increasing. Many people suddenly discovered that this company is already an Internet giant!

On the afternoon of the weekend, the Uber Building in the Pudong District of Shanghai was a little quiet. An Yi drove an ordinary Jiebao XJ to the Uber Building.
He returned to work at Uber this Monday. His mother reconciled with Brother Jing in Beijing and was entrusted with the important task of taking charge of the Coolpad mobile phone. In exchange, Brother Jing set up a US$1 billion fund in Hong Kong Island.
To protect his life.
The purpose of establishing a fund is to avoid taxes reasonably and allow him to enjoy the benefits of this asset. His car worth 1 million was purchased in the name of the foundation.
His mother also warned him not to develop the habit of being indolent and lazy. Otherwise, the foundation will stop subsidizing him. Oh, my Queen Mother!
His current rank is P5, which is considered the head of the department. He has served as the head of the department at the age of 21, and he has a promising future within Uber. His identity is kept confidential.
"Haha..." An Yi parked the car in the underground parking lot of the building and walked to the office with his mobile phone. He happened to see the web page on the mobile phone, and the recommended news was news related to the Phoenix Group.
Jinggao's internal speech was published on the Internet and was ridiculed and criticized.
"How can we brag about the rankings of Internet companies? Don't they all depend on the rankings of authoritative magazines?"
"Look at the rankings of the Fortune 500 and the list of China's top 100 private enterprises. Who gave Phoenix Group the courage to think it was ranked third?"
"I have never known Mr. Jing, but from now on, your behavior of belittling and praising his colleagues reminds me of the bad nature of the Chinese people."
An Yi just wanted to say "haha" after seeing it. It is certain that Jing Ge's disparaging praise of other companies will definitely make people unhappy. But is Jing Ge qualified to say such things? Do you think he is an unknown person on the Internet?
So what if he said these words in front of the second horse, Li Yanhong, and Brother Dong? It's just a debate. Will those top bosses still hold a grudge against Brother Jing? What determines their behavior is: business interests!
Furthermore, various rankings are lagging behind. When the evaluation is conducted at the end of this year, do you really think that Phoenix Group will not be able to secure the third spot?
An Yi put away his cell phone, sat down at his desk and started working overtime. His mother was also worried that he would become a rich second generation, corrupt and degenerate, but she didn't know that his work pressure was so high that he didn't even have weekends.
But in comparison, he still likes Brother Jing's "training model".

Hong Kong Island.
Guo Siyue was browsing an English newspaper in a newly rented office in Central. Jing Gao's remarks about the positioning of Phoenix Group attracted the attention of the financial media. Financial newspapers on Hong Kong Island also began to publish reports.
Guo Siyue has been the president of Galaxy Group for ten years and has settled in Hong Kong Island for a long time. She has passports from many countries, which allows her to fly around the world to attend business activities and company meetings.
With her connections in Hong Kong Island and her position in the shopping mall, she quickly established the structure of the "Yuexiu Consortium" after returning to Hong Kong Island from Jing Gao.
Of course, at this time, her resignation process at Galaxy Group has not been completely completed, and there is a little tailwind. She has not yet started formal work.
Jing Gao told her that he was planning to set up a global consortium, similar to the structure of the Mitsui Consortium. That is to hide the equity and actual controllers. She knew very well and understood Jing Gao's thoughts. Jing Gao wanted to avoid certain five
The country's market risk is replaced by the Yuexiu Consortium.
And she is also a very suitable candidate to stand in front of the stage.
However, she has her own thinking. The "brain" of the Mitsui Consortium is Mitsui & Co. And she does not intend to use this industrial structure model, but plans to adopt the "bank + industry" model popular among European and American consortiums, using banks as the basis.
, especially international investment banks as the core.
Then, her first goal is to acquire or establish an investment bank on Hong Kong Island and name it "Yuexiu Bank".
While she was pondering, Guo Siyue's cell phone rang. She looked at the number and answered the call, "Lily, why do you have time to call me?"
Guo Lingyu said with a smile on the phone: "Auntie, Mr. Jing recently issued an internal open letter to define himself, which is very historical! It's just like Napoleon taking the crown from the Pope and crowning himself!
The financial media here on Hong Kong Island have all heard about it.”
Guo Siyue smiled slightly, elegantly and calmly, "Yeah."
Guo Lingyu continued: "I heard from a former colleague that **** and Goldman Sachs are going to send people to the capital to visit him and recommend Phoenix Group to list on Nasdaq."
Guo Siyue smiled indifferently, "Lily, this kind of news has no credibility. The process of Uber's listing on Nasdaq has been stuck. It has not been finalized yet. Can the managers of Goldman Sachs and Xiaomo now accept the listing of Uber on Nasdaq?
There are no online payments in the United States and giving high prices? It’s just speculation.”
Daguo Beauty's vision and judgment are as accurate as ever.
Guo Lingyu chuckled, "Auntie, I can't chat with you like this! I feel like this financial news has spread quite widely. The Phoenix Group's popularity is increasing day by day."
Guo Siyue smiled gently and said: "Come on. How can I have time to listen to you showing off here? I have resigned from the Galaxy Group. I have something else to do. I will treat you to tea another day. I'm hanging up."
After hanging up the phone, Guo Siyue couldn't help but shake her head. Lily didn't know her relationship with Jing Gao yet. In front of Jing Gao, she couldn't help but say some over-the-top words to seduce him, but Jing Gao really wanted to do it together.
, she definitely doesn’t want to.
Guo Siyue glanced at the newspaper, turned on the phone, drank the coffee at hand, and looked up the Phoenix Group's information.
It was obvious that Jing Gao had listened to her advice and was splitting up and reorganizing his properties to hide his assets and avoid becoming the "richest man" in the eyes of the public. She would be happy to be able to help him.
At about nine o'clock on Monday morning, the sun shines from the sea of Victoria Harbor and shines through the floor-to-ceiling glass windows into the bright and fashionable office. A ray of sunshine falls on the quiet, luxurious and beautiful woman.
It makes her look like an orchid blooming quietly and swaying in various ways.
