Gao Jin picked up the tea cup and took a sip, looked at Zhou Ziru and asked, "How are the profits of each subsidiary currently?"
"As far as I know, the profits of energy groups have begun to rise, the profits of agricultural groups have increased, the profits of biotechnology groups have increased, and the profits of gaming companies have also begun to rise."
"The data of other companies have not been reported yet. I analyze that the game company will have a huge growth this year." Zhou Ziru told what he knew.
“Huge growth for gaming companies?”
Gao Jin asked, the level is that Activision Blizzard has been acquired, and the agency rights for Activision Blizzard games can only be taken back until January 1 next year.
How can game companies increase profits during this period?
"Chairman, after we acquired Activision Blizzard, Starlight Games Company Lin Zhentang contacted Blizzard, and Blizzard opened up more than a dozen patented technologies to Starlight Games Company."
"The current client size of Fairy World Civilization has been reduced by 20% compared to the original. The game server was stopped for 12 hours for a comprehensive upgrade, and the smoothness has been improved by more than 15%."
"Good experience attracts more game players."
Zhou Ziru told the truth about what he knew. Gao Jin nodded. Lin Zhentang moved quickly enough. He actually took action right after acquiring Activision Blizzard.
"What's going on with the agricultural group?" Gao Jin asked again.
"The increase in profits of the agricultural group is due to the launch of the vegetable industrialization project in Latvinia and the launch of the vegetable industrialization project in Linz, Austria"
"The two major vegetable bases directly cover several surrounding countries, quickly occupy the market share at low prices, and the profits have been greatly improved."
Zhou Ziru really knew about the agricultural market, and Fang Jingquan and Zhou Ziru got along well. The two of them would talk on the phone whenever they had nothing to do, and they would definitely have a drink if they had the opportunity.
"Where's the Energy Group? I remember that the Energy Group just spent a sum of money." Gao Jin looked at Zhou Ziru and asked.
"Boss, the hydrogen energy company under the Energy Group has launched a promotion. It only costs 90 yuan to purchase a 100-yuan hydrogenation card. Each person is limited to ten cards."
"Using this promotion, we collected more than 200 billion in funds. 100 billion was deposited in the bank as a fixed deposit three years ago, with an interest rate of 5%."
"Of the remaining more than 100 billion, 100 billion has been loaned to Ji Xueyi of Starlight Investment Company. The short-term loan will expire at the end of November, and the interest rate is 4%!"
"Shengguang Solar Energy Company also conducted a wave of promotions. Although the effect was not very good, it achieved 10% of its layoff target, which is considered to be an overfulfillment of the task."
Zhou Ziru curled his lips after saying this. Tangtang Energy Group actually scraped money from the financial market. It was a shame that Yu Jingjie could think of it.
Gao Jin was stunned after hearing this, and after a while he came back to his senses and said, "I'm so impressed, Yu Jingjie is so good at playing!"
"By the way, why does Ji Xueyi need such a large amount of funds? What is she going to do?" Gao Jin suddenly asked.
"I don't know. It seems that a large amount of funds have been mobilized to enter the RB market. I don't know what exactly they will do," Zhou Ziru told the truth.
Gao Jin frowned and thought for a while, then picked up the phone and started dialing, calling Ji Xueyi directly. What was he doing with all of a sudden raising so much money?
The international economy is very dangerous now, and if something goes wrong, you will have to pay for it.
"Chairman" Ji Xueyi's voice came over.
"Xueyi, what project have you mobilized a large amount of funds to invest in abroad?" Gao Jin asked straight to the point. When discussing things with Ji Xueyi, he always got straight to the point.
"Boss, I got news that RBXXX Steel Group has falsified steel data. The steel products with these falsified data have been sold to several major Japanese car companies."
"Currently, our counterparts in the United States have also mobilized funds to come over. I met with Nelson from Tiger Management, and we are jointly shorting the Nikkei Index."
Ji Xueyi told the truth, this was a rare opportunity, the evidence was exposed at a critical moment, and several major RB groups would be involved in this scandal.
At that time, the stock prices of these groups will definitely fall, which will definitely drag the Nikkei Index to a new low.
Another thing is that the Americans have already entered the market and laid out their plans. I would be really sorry if I didn’t take a bite of such a good opportunity.
After hearing this, Gao Jin immediately began to rub his temples. Ji Xueyi's courage and appetite were getting bigger and bigger now, and the profits from domestic short-term lending were no longer worth it.
He began to mobilize funds to make waves in the world. I really didn’t expect that Ji Xueyi would reach this point. Is this the same Ji Xueyi who was cautious in doing things before?
Zhou Ziru on the side also heard it clearly, and a smile appeared on his face. He didn't expect Ji Xueyi to be so fierce.
"When will the network be closed?" Gao Jin asked.
"Boss, close the network in mid-November." Ji Xueyi answered in the affirmative. This is something that has been discussed.
"Xue Yi, you have to be careful. Tiger Fund, a financial giant, bites you with its backhand."
"There are no emotions in the eyes of crocodiles, only interests."
Gao Jin had to tell Ji Xueyi that he had no problem playing with Nelson. Nelson knew his ability and dared not play dirty tricks. You Ji Xueyi did not have such a deterrent.
"Chairman, I understand, I have always been on guard." Ji Xueyi said this with certainty.
Hearing Ji Xueyi's words, Gao Jin knew in his heart that Ji Xueyi couldn't listen to his persuasion at this moment, so forget it, don't care.
"RB must be withdrawn before the end of November!" Gao Jin gave clear instructions.
"Okay, I will withdraw 100% before the end of November." Ji Xueyi agreed. This operation itself was to make a dollar. The original plan was to withdraw money by the end of November.
It does not conflict with Gao Jin's orders.
Gao Jin couldn't help but give Ji Xueyi a few words before hanging up the phone. He rubbed his temples, turned to look at Zhou Ziru and said, "Make a financial rule to restrict Ji Xueyi. She is a little wild now. She must be trapped."
Put on the reins."
"Understood, it's already in the design, and it will be released in a week." Zhou Ziru said with a smile. Ever since he knew what Ji Xueyi did, Zhou Ziru had been worried.
We have already started arranging for financial veterans to start thinking about this matter, and we will limit it according to the rules so as not to hurt our friendship.
"As for expenses, I will call Ge Gongming and the general managers of the research institutes and ask them to control expenses."
"By the way, how is the progress of layoffs in other subsidiaries?"
Gao Jin suddenly remembered the layoffs. Zhou Ziru, who was in charge of finance, was more aware of the matter.
"At present, everything is almost completed. The headquarters has completed the target of 8% layoffs. We are still strictly implementing various rules and regulations. If anyone violates the regulations, he will be fired directly!"
"The one with the slowest progress is the research institute. The one that has completed the best is only about 5% complete."
The institute is directly under the jurisdiction of the headquarters, and each month's salary schedule needs to be faxed to the finance department of the headquarters. After Zhou Ziru's approval, funds will be allocated to pay the salary.
Therefore, Zhou Ziru is very clear about the progress of layoffs at the institute.
"You call them later and tell them. Forget it, I'll do it. I'll talk to them personally." Gao Jin took over the matter and spoke by himself. The general managers of the subsidiaries did not dare to play tricks.
"Chairman, I suggest that Jiang Zhenliang do this. All I need to add is that it should be linked to your year-end bonus. No one below would dare to be careless."
"They were reprimanded and punished by the chairman last year, and they will definitely be honest this year."
Zhou Ziru watched Gao Jin say this with great meaning. Gao Jin glanced at Zhou Ziru, understood what Zhou Ziru meant, and nodded slowly.
"Notify Lao Jiang now," Gao Jin said, picking up the phone and dialing Jiang Zhenliang, director of the Human Resources Department of Xingling Group.
The phone call didn't take long, and Gao Jin communicated with Jiang Zhenliang about this matter.
"Don't worry, Chairman, I'm here to talk to them on the phone. I will definitely let them know the sense of urgency. No words will be left on this matter!" Jiang Zhenliang already understood Gao Jin's thoughts. If he didn't leave any words, it would save him a lot of trouble.
"Okay, I can rest assured that you can do your job," Gao Jin said cheerfully, chatted with Jiang Zhenliang for a few words and then hung up the phone.
Zhou Ziru drank two cups of tea at Gao Jin's place and said goodbye. The purpose of coming here today has been achieved, and he feels a lot more at ease.
After seeing off Zhou Ziru, Gao Jin invited Jane and Sonia to have dinner together in the headquarters cafeteria.
In the afternoon, Gao Jin called Zhou Zongyan and explained what he meant. Zhou Zongyan was really surprised, "You asked me to lay off people secretly!"
"My aunt, please keep your voice down, this kind of thing can only be done but not said." Gao Jin rubbed his head and said this. Zhou Zongyan's loud voice was really uncomfortable.
"Ah Jin, why are you laying off people secretly? My cosmetics company is currently developing well, and its performance has maintained a growth rate of more than 5% in the past few months." Zhou Zongyan was very puzzled by what Gao Jin said.
Now is a great time to rapidly expand the market. It would be too sudden to suddenly stop expansion and start laying off employees.
Zhou Zongyan's cosmetics company was just rated as an outstanding enterprise by the province some time ago. According to the market valuation, it is worth more than 800 million.
Yesterday, I held a meeting with the company's senior executives to discuss the next step in expanding the market. Suddenly, the expansion stopped. Without a suitable reason, it was difficult for me to convince these senior executives.
"Stop expanding the market, change your strategy, and start digging into the market you have already established. Stabilizing the market is what you should do now."
"You can only explain the layoffs verbally and not in documents. This must be done!"
"Perhaps you will understand in the first half of next year, at the latest, no later than the second half of the year!"
"By the way, don't tell anyone that the layoffs are my opinion!"
Gao Jin said this with a strong tone, if you are not my woman, I don't care whether you expand or not, no matter what you do.
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Zhou Zongyan agreed, knowing that Gao Jin would not harm him, and he would do well no matter what Gao Jin said.
"When will you come over?" Gao Jin asked. Zhou Zongyan's face turned red, understanding what Gao Jin meant.
"It's not working now. We need to carry out secret layoffs as you said. In a month, you can go to Italy to find Joanna." Zhou Zongyan said directly.
"All right"
Gao Jin said helplessly, chatted with Zhou Zongyan for a while and hung up the phone. After thinking for a while, he really needed to go to Italy.
I spent too little time with Joanna this year.
Furthermore, Protoss Group’s subsidiaries in Italy also need to be taken a look at, especially the weapons company, which is in the midst of a difficult transformation.
I looked up at the time. It was after four o'clock. I packed up and informed the two assistants to go home from get off work.
As the chairman of Xingling Group, no one would have any objection to Gao Jin getting off work earlier, and no department would evaluate Gao Jin.
The night passed, and as soon as he went to work the next day, Gao Jin began to arrange things for his Xingling Group.
At the same time, Jiang Zhenliang of the Human Resources Department began to communicate with the general managers of those subsidiaries and research institutes, and this matter was linked to your year-end bonuses.
Don’t blame me if you fail to achieve your goals and your year-end bonus is deducted.
Anyone who received Jiang Zhenliang's call did not dare to be careless and began to seriously think about Jiang Zhenliang's words. After a while, they took the personnel information and began to study it.
At around ten o'clock, Ge Gongming arrived at Jiang Zhenliang's office. The two talked behind closed doors, and Ge Gongming left with a bad expression.
At around eleven o'clock, Gao Jin put down the phone and rubbed his head. His schedule was about to change again.
The call just now came from Prince Aznan of Dubai. The meaning was very simple. The Crown Prince of the Arab Kingdom, Modimollah Rahman, wanted to meet Gao Jin.
The content of the discussion was commercial, so Gao Jin could rest assured that other matters would not be involved.
The struggle within the kingdom has come to an end. Rahman has won all the battles and is currently taking over some key departments with the support of the old king.
The Kingdom of Arabia has many princes, not just an ordinary number, more than a hundred princes.
If you want to stand out among so many princes and gain the recognition of the old king, you must be an elite person. Ordinary people will never enter the old king's eyes.
Through talking to Aznan, it was revealed that there have been great changes within the kingdom. For example, the twenty-seventh prince Dirham, whom Gao Jin was familiar with, has now been deprived of all rights and is in prison.
It was the Crown Prince, Rahman, who took action.
There were also the seventh prince and the twelfth prince. The seven princes were deprived of everything and imprisoned.
This is still good, for example, the fourth prince, fifth prince, and nine princes were directly sentenced to death and deprived of everything.
This time Rahman wants to talk to Gao Jin to solve a major domestic problem.
Both the old king and Rahman have clearly seen that oil cannot last a lifetime. Now that international oil prices are low, the country must undergo transformation.
If drastic reforms cannot be carried out, the country's wealth will be exhausted in a few years. At that time, if you want to do something, you will no longer have the funds.
After repeated evaluations, the old king believed that only Rahman had the courage at present, so he confirmed Rahman's status and supported Rahman to move up.
It is hoped that Rahman can change some of the domestic shortcomings and achieve healthy development.
The meeting with Gao Jin this time to discuss matters was indeed about business matters. Rahman did not tell Aznam what specific matters were discussed.
(Sorry, I drank too much with my client. It was already past ten o'clock when I woke up. I will make up for it tomorrow when I have recovered my strength!)
