The same books, "Pengbo Finance" magazine, "Peng Bo's Way to Success - A Giant of the Era", "I Moved Your Cheese", "My Success Can Be Copied"... are placed on AOL Time Warner Asia Pacific
In front of Vice President and President of Asia Region Wei Jianpu Logistics, the person sitting in front of him was Meng Wenhui.
A Chinese-American who was born and raised since childhood, also known as Banana Man.
"You must have no idea what kind of person Li Wen and Botman have found for us to serve as the president of our AOL Time Warner Greater China region!" Meng Wenhui was very excited, "A student from a second-rate university in China!" Meng Wenhui
He is very proud of his academic qualifications, and his school is also one of the prestigious Ivy League schools.
William Poulos was very calm. He looked at the newspaper in his hand carefully. There was only a Chinese version but not an English version. He couldn't understand it but he could understand it.
These days, he also paid attention to reports from Business Weekly, Fortune, and Forbes. The awards ceremony was a success, which made him feel a little confused.
"Meng Wenhui, you have to know that academic qualifications don't mean everything. Bill Gates also founded Microsoft before finishing college," Prolos said. "Which university you study in doesn't mean everything."
"But he has different intentions." Meng Wenhui said immediately, "He established his own Pengbo TV, and now he has launched the China Entrepreneurs Summit. This is inconsistent with our goals." He looked at GLP and continued to add insult to injury.
"And this has nothing to do with AOL Time Warner."
Prolos stood up and poured two glasses of red wine. Meng Wenhui took it and said, "Listen to me, you have to keep your composure. Peng Bo does this much better than you. He really doesn't look like he is in his twenties."
People." Poulos sighed, "Okay, before getting to the point, that is, before solving this problem in this way, I would like to ask you to review history."
"History?" Meng Wenhui shrugged, now is not the time to drop the book bag.
Prologis ignored him and thought to himself, "In 1995, Fortune magazine included companies in all industrial fields for the first time. Three Chinese companies entered the world's top 500 list that year: Bank of China, China Central
Chemical and COFCO. In the same year, the United States had 5 companies on the list, and Japan had 49 companies.
Therefore, we have been paying attention to China’s financial media and world-class financial media for a long time! Of course, last year, we also came to China and held a forum for the world’s top 500 companies..."
"Of course, the China Zone was also established in China last year," Pross said with a sneer on his face, "This was Li Wen's idea, but unfortunately I told him that we don't seem to need such a person."
"Botman..." Meng Wenhui reminded. This is William Poulos's boss and the person who promoted him.
"He is also optimistic about Peng Bo, you know, but he will regret his decision, as well as Keith."
Meng Wenhui didn't dare to speak anymore. William Pross evaluated the three big bosses as worthless in one breath, but what did he want to say? Meng Wenhui watched Pross talking about history, and he couldn't guess the boss's intention.
"Also, Fortune's rankings are global, American, European, Asian... Every country will have a ranking. China's ranking is not because of Peng Bo." Prosper continued.
, "Because we have never given up on China, he just played a transitional role."
transition?
"Yes, he is the pawn," Prolos poured himself another glass of red wine. "During this transition period, if he cooperates and performs well, then he will still be the president of Greater China. If he always wants to leave AOL Time Warner,
Then he is a stumbling block."
Pros drank the wine in one gulp and threw the cup into the trash can. "Then my attitude is very clear - kick him away!"
One thing is clear to William Poulos. Although Time Warner has not stayed away from this land and Time Warner has a long-standing plan for China, its old rivals are not idle either.
In 1994, "Business Weekly" released a Chinese version, and "Forbes" planned to hold next year's global forum in Shanghai, China. If Time Warner blindly relies on Peng Bo, all previous efforts will be wasted if there are changes.
Compared to Time Warner's big plan, leaving or being left is Peng Bo's fate.
"I have spoken with Mr. Botman and we will launch a package..."
That young smiling face flashed before William Poulos's eyes again, the most dangerous man in China.
"Meng Wenhui, we are the first company among the three major financial weekly magazines in the United States to hold an annual meeting in China, and in the next step, we will also promote it to entertainment, sports and other fields..."
Such a huge business plan has obviously been planned for a long time, and Meng Wenhui is also excited. It means that China is receiving increasing attention, and if he is the first to win, he will have endless opportunities.
Prosper continued, "We also want to integrate China's rankings into the global ranking system, so Botman hopes that someone with experience in working in the U.S. headquarters will manage China's rankings. Peng Bo is a suitable candidate.
, but what we want first is an American."
Meng Wenhui knows this unspoken rule in the workplace. In the eyes of Americans, everyone from other countries is never "one of our own." They cannot enjoy the same treatment as Americans, nor do they have the opportunities of Americans.
"Meng Wenhui, you have to understand that when a company's investment abroad reaches a certain stage, it will inevitably send its own people there."
Prolos sat down on the sofa. After several trips to China, Peng Bo made him feel like a fish in water. In the past few months, with his frequent appearances in domestic and foreign media, his reputation has become more and more popular. He thinks that Peng Bo's publicity
It is too preoccupied and has even created a situation in China where "only Peng Bo is known but Time Warner is not known", which may have a negative impact on AOL Time Warner's overall layout of entering China.
"Okay, go on, this China Top 500 Summit, oh, what other Economic Person of the Year didn't use our title?"
"No." Meng Wenhui reported, "He wants to go it alone."
Prosper smiled, "Go it alone? His business card is printed with the title of our AOL Time Warner, and his book is also printed with the words Time Warner." He pointed to the book Meng Wenhui brought, "He is
He took a side step, used our name to make his own business, and used our resources to carry out his plans. However, he did not push Time Warner into the Chinese market."
"Just kick him away." Meng Wenhui encouraged, since Pros has made it clear that he wants to kick Peng Bo away.
William Poulos turned around and said, "Aren't you afraid?"
"What am I afraid of?" Meng Wenhui shrugged like an American.
"He is the most dangerous man in China." William Poulos's voice was low and full of coercion.
