At half past nine, Zhao Xiaoyan walked into the conference room. This was probably her last time attending a group meeting as the president of Kowloon Group.
Looking at the familiar faces present here, Zhao Xiaoyan was filled with emotions. She recalled nine years ago, when she first entered the Taiping Garment Factory, how could she have ever thought that one day she would become the president of a group with a market value of tens of billions.
I just graduated from Xiangjiang University with a bachelor's degree. Thanks to the rapid expansion of the Li Group, and my wholehearted devotion to work over the years, I finally gained Li Guangyu's recognition and was able to lead a group on my own.
At this time, only Ding Yantao, the general manager of the administration department, knew why Zhao Xiaoyan suddenly held this meeting. When she returned to the office to arrange personnel to notify the middle and senior management to attend the meeting, she received the document from the assistant office.
Zhao Xiaoyan resigned as chairman and chief executive of the Kowloon Group, and her position was taken over by Du Yuemei. Before Du Yuemei took office, the group's affairs were temporarily presided over by Executive Vice President Pan Hongmao.
Zhao Xiaoyan said: "The reason why we convened this emergency meeting today is to accept Li Sheng's arrangement, and there will be some changes in the group's personnel.
Our Kowloon Group may not have a high sense of presence under the Li family, but after several years of hard work, Kowloon Group is a group with huge assets in Hong Kong, and externally we are one of the top groups in Hong Kong.
I would like to thank everyone for their support of my work over the past two years, and I also hope that everyone can cooperate with the work of the new president in the future."
Dozens of senior executives present immediately understood why Zhao Xiaoyan wanted to hold an emergency meeting. The president was going to be transferred. However, there were no other group executives attending this time. Could it be that the group president would be replaced by Executive Vice President Pan Hongmao.
At this time, Pan Hongmao was also not at peace in his heart. According to Li's consortium's practice, the president of a group resigns. If he is transferred from outside, he will definitely attend this meeting.
But now that there is no external transfer, then the group affairs must be presided over by oneself, and he can officially take office after a period of time. For example, this was the case for Shi Shaoming of Jiayi Group before.
He knew that he would not be able to take the position immediately because neither Li Guangyu nor Yuan Tianfan had talked to him, so it would be impossible for him to be promoted in the Li Group.
Pan Hongmao took the lead and said: "Ms. Zhao, the current achievements of the Kowloon Group are mainly due to your leadership and the concerted efforts of all members of our group. We will definitely maintain the current work momentum and cooperate well with the new appointment."
The work of the president has developed the Kowloon Group into a top group in Hong Kong."
Other senior executives present also expressed their opinions that they will definitely cooperate with the work of the new president. Many people believe that the future president of Kowloon Group will be Pan Hongmoo. Following their stance now can leave a good impression.
Although the Li Group will not be squeezed out, the promotion of these middle-level executives is still decided by the group president and board members, especially the president's opinion is very important.
Only Ding Yantao was amused in her heart. Pan Hongmao was probably taking it too much for granted. This time the president had no chance for him, and Du Yuemei was far more powerful than Zhao Xiaoyan. Even if Pan Hongmao was the executive vice president, he could only obey him honestly.
Arrangements: If Zhao Xiaoyan dares to raise this or that opinion, let’s see if he still dares to raise it after Du Yuemei takes office next month.
There are many groups under the Li Group, and it is impossible for everyone in each group to be of the same mind. There are many forces and factions in each group. As long as it does not affect the development of the group, Li Guangyu will not take care of it.
Some relatively powerful CEOs do not have many conflicts of interest within their groups, but this is different within some groups.
For example, in the current Hengyu Supermarket Group, after the strong president Li Xuelan was transferred, the new president Chen Linwen was not as strong as Li Xuelan. The vice presidents of these groups have some middle and high-level support within the group. For the healthy and stable development of the group, many things have to be done
The decision must be made through discussion, and he couldn't make a decision like Li Xuelan did.
The same is true for Regal Hotel Group, Jiayi Group, Xiangjiang Communications Group, etc. Their CEOs cannot be compared with some CEOs in the group.
For example, the former Du Yuemei and Li Xuemei, as well as the current incumbents Zhang Ziyu, Qin Jiao, Guo Qingya, Chen Dong, Zhao Wenhua, and Xie Tao, these people have high prestige in the group and can basically make decisions with one word. Group executives generally do not
Opposition emerged.
Zhao Xiaoyan obviously cannot achieve a decisive decision in the Kowloon Group. There are many middle and high-level people who support Pan Hongmao within the Kowloon Group. You must know that Pan Hongmao climbed up from the management of the Kowloon Bus Company step by step, and the main body when the Kowloon Group was established
It's the Kowloon Bus Company.
Vice President Wang Qian is also one of the elders of the Li Group. She worked at the Taiping Garment Factory before Li Guangyu took over the family business, but she and Zhao Xiaoyan are not in the same department.
At first, Zhao Xiaoyan was the manager of the business department of the garment factory, while Wang Qian was the manager of the administrative department. Her boss was Liu Weifang, the current vice president of Hengyu Supermarket Group.
Therefore, the relationship between the two parties is not very close. The people who have a close relationship with Wang Qian are Guo Qingya, Gan Qin, Liu Weifang, Zhou Yuanyuan, and Yang Xiu. They were all administrators in the garment factory before.
Zhao Xiaoyan did not care about the thoughts of the following people. She said: "From today on, I will no longer hold the position of chairman and president of the group. The group's affairs will be temporarily presided over by Executive Vice President Pan Sheng. I also hope that everyone can maintain the stability of the group."
Pan Hongmao was very excited when he heard the result he wanted. He immediately said: "Ms. Zhao, I will lead the development of Kowloon Group well to live up to Mr. Li's trust in me."
He then said to the management present: "I also hope that everyone can support my work in the days to come, so that our Kowloon Group can gain greater attention and a higher status in the Lee Group."
Zhao Xiaoyan didn't expect that Pan Hongmao would be so impatient. It seemed that this man already thought that the position of CEO was already in his pocket.
Regarding Pan Hongmao, Zhao Xiaoyan cannot say that he is very good, nor can he say that he is bad. This person's ability is still very good, but it is a pity that he pursues power too much in his heart. He always hopes to move up quickly in his heart, and sometimes he only focuses on short-term profits and achievements.
, this is something Zhao Xiaoyan strongly disagrees with.
"I believe that our Kowloon Group is about to usher in brilliant development. In order to highlight the importance Li Sheng attaches to the Kowloon Group, Ms. Du Yuemei will officially come to the Kowloon Group next month to serve as the group chairman and president. At that time, everyone will still have a lot of support for Ms. Du
work.”
Before Zhao Xiaoyan finished speaking, Pan Hongmao's heart had already turned from joy to sadness. Just a moment ago, he seemed to be in heaven, but now he suddenly fell into hell. The sweet dream did not last for two minutes when he was ruthlessly shattered by Zhao Xiaoyan's words.
Everyone present has heard a lot about Du Yuemei. He is definitely a powerful figure. As Li Guangyu's first assistant, he has a strong influence in the Li Group.
Especially for the Xiangyu Cultural Group that she once headed, many of its top executives now hold important positions. Even within the executive team, Du Yuemei has a very high say.
Senior executives like them can compete with Zhao Xiaoyan, but if they compete with Du Yuemei, they will really end their career. Their future promotions will be decided by the executive team and Li Guangyu together. In many cases, the executive team proposes candidates, and Li Guangyu is in charge.
Decide on specific personnel.
Pan Hongmao didn't know if he was shocked. After Zhao Xiaoyan finished speaking, he did not immediately express his position as before.
Wang Qian said: "I believe that after Ms. Du comes, our Kowloon Group will definitely usher in explosive expansion. The Kowloon Group will definitely become a pillar group of the Lee Group in the future. I will strictly implement the tasks assigned by Ms. Du at work."
, cooperate well with Ms. Du’s work.”
Naturally, other senior executives expressed their opinions. They were also very happy that Du Yuemei came to serve as president. The faster the group expanded, the faster they would be promoted.
