Chapter 392 The key to the problem
After the transfer of Haitian Business Center, Lao Chu returned to the parent company. His ideal was of course to join the management of Fangyuan Holdings, but the reality was far from his ideal. Not only was he unable to join the company's management, he was also assigned to production
Lao Chu found it difficult to accept being in front-line administrative management, so he angrily applied for early retirement.
Lao Chu thought that the management would retain him. Unexpectedly, on the third day after the application was submitted, the HR and Labor Department of Fangyuan Holdings notified him to apply for pre-exit procedures. This made Lao Chu disappointed and lost. Although everyone knew that Haitian Business Center had become
The unfinished project was entirely caused by the break in the capital chain and had nothing to do with the project leader Lao Chu. However, as a listed company, Fangyuan Holdings made a project with an investment of several hundred million into an unfinished project, and it has no responsibility for all shareholders and secondary market investment.
People must have an explanation, so Lao Chu naturally became the one responsible for the failure of Haitian Business Center.
In addition, considering the purpose of cultivating and reusing young cadres, it is impossible for Lao Chu, who is about to reach retirement age, to enter the management of Fangyuan Holdings. The company's board of directors arranged for him to be assigned to the production line for administrative management, which is just a temporary measure. In fact, it is just to give him a casual
Arrange a position for him to work until he retires.
The management of Fangyuan Holdings did not expect that Lao Chu not only refused to accept the position arranged by the company, but also applied for early retirement. After discussion, several leaders on the board of directors believed that since Lao Chu did not accept the company's arrangement, they should satisfy his wish and let him return early.
Home.
Lao Chu went through the pre-exit procedures and stopped going to work the next day. After staying at home for a week and not going to work, he felt empty. When he was bored, he thought of Guan Yuntian, who was working in their company in the provincial capital.
office, or back to the company headquarters.
"I wanted to call you in advance, but I was afraid that if you returned to the company headquarters, the call would disturb your work. Anyway, I was free, so I came to the office to have a look. I only found out about you after asking the staff.
His office is here." Lao Chu explained.
"Please sit down!" Guan Yuntian asked Lao Chu to sit on the sofa. "You are already idle. Does that mean your company leader has approved your pre-retirement application?"
"The day after our phone call, the company's Human Resources and Labor Department notified me to go through the pre-exit procedures. I have been away from work for a week."
"If you don't go to work, what are you doing at home?"
"I didn't do anything, just sit around. I was bored, so I wanted to go out and walk around."
Guan Yuntian made a cup of tea with a paper cup and put it on the coffee table in front of Old Chu. He also sat down opposite Old Chu and thought about something in his mind. After a few minutes, he said: "You want to continue to stay at home?"
, live a completely retired life, or do you have other plans?"
"I've been staying at home for a week and I feel very bored, but I've already canceled my stay. What can I do if I'm not at home?"
"How is your physical condition?"
"I'm in good health! Except for a slightly high blood pressure, I don't have any other problems. In fact, people nowadays are not that old at all in their sixties. By the way, I see that your financial director of Changda Group, Lao Ding, is older than me.
It’s still big.” Lao Chu said.
Guan Yuntian nodded, "Do you want to come out and continue working?"
Although he felt that Guan Yuntian wanted to tell him something, this sentence still surprised Lao Chu, "Continue working? Where? Who do you work for?"
"Here, of course I work for Changda Real Estate Company." Guan Yuntian said.
Lao Chu couldn't believe his ears, "Mr. Guan, are you telling me to come here and work for Changda Real Estate Company?"
"What, you don't want to? Hey, if you don't want to, forget it, just pretend I didn't say anything."
"I didn't say I wasn't willing! I can do anything you want to work here!" Lao Chu was overjoyed from the bottom of his heart.
"You can do anything? Huh, if I ask you to do odd jobs, isn't that overqualifying you for your talents? Of course you are doing your job, management." Guan Yuntian said.
"Management is indeed my specialty, but I want to know, what aspect of your business are you going to let me manage?"
"Now the name has been changed to Changda Group Haitian Business Center. I plan to let you continue to be the project leader, but not the legal representative."
"Mr. Guan, aren't you personally responsible for this project now? I'm afraid I won't be able to manage it as well as you." Lao Chu is quite self-aware.
"Every work has been straightened out and the project construction is on the right track. There are still many things that need to be handled by me personally at the Changda Group headquarters and Changda Real Estate Company. I can't stay here for a long time, so I want to hire you as the executive manager."
Yuntian Dao.
"Thank you, Mr. Guan, for your appreciation! I am very willing." Lao Chu expressed his gratitude immediately.
"But let me state in advance that this place is different from Fangyuan Holding Company. Changda Group has its own management method. I wonder if you can adapt to it?"
"It's nothing more than stricter management, fair and transparent work, selflessness, etc. Mr. Guan, you should know that when I was managing this project at Fangyuan Holding Company, more than 30 million yuan was spent unreasonably, and it was basically none of my business.
You're not bragging, right? Don't forget, it's a state-owned company, and I can be self-disciplined. In a private enterprise like Changda Group, the environment is cleaner. In addition to doing my job well, I won't have anything wrong.
Think about it."
"I believe this. With all due respect, it is precisely because I value this characteristic of yours that I can safely hand over such a large task to you. In addition, in the Changda Group, I will delegate the power that should be delegated to the end, and will never
It will affect your work efficiency because the decentralization of power is not in place." Guan Yuntian said.
"I believe it will be a pleasure to work here."
"Mr. Chu, when do you expect to take office? Do you need to discuss this with your family?"
"I can start working at any time. My family is always supportive of me. There is nothing to discuss." Seeing Lao Chu feeling uncomfortable at home, his wife and children wished he could find something to do.
At eight o'clock in the morning the next day, Guan Yuntian convened a meeting with all employees of Changda Real Estate's provincial office. Although everyone knew Lao Chu, Guan Yuntian still made a solemn introduction to everyone, "This President Chu, maybe everyone knows
We know each other, but now he has a new identity, he has become a member of our Changda Real Estate Company's provincial office, and from today on, he is our new colleague."
At the meeting, Guan Yuntian announced a new appointment decision, appointing Lao Chu as the executive deputy commander-in-chief of the Haitian Business Center of Changda Group, responsible for the daily management of project construction.
After the arrangements were made, Guan Yuntian returned to the Changda Group headquarters that afternoon. According to information revealed by Deputy Director Cao of the Bureau of Land and Resources, the next commercial land auction in the provincial capital was
It will be held in one and a half months. This is an important opportunity. If you miss it, you will have to wait another year. This opportunity cannot be missed, so Guan Yuntian decided to make plans early.
After all, Changda Real Estate Company's entry into the provincial capital real estate development market is not just for a Haitian business center. Their goal is commercial residences with a broader market. In Guan Yuntian's mind, this goal has never wavered at any time.
Before preparing to participate in the land auction in the provincial capital, Guan Yuntian first had to have an in-depth understanding of the financial situation of Changda Group. On the one hand, he had been away from the company headquarters for more than a month. In addition, it took six months to take over the Haitian Business Center.
With a capital of more than 100 million, he is indeed not clear about the financial status of the group company.
Guan Yuntian had heard about the price of commercial land in the provincial capital for a long time. If he wanted to participate in the land auction, he would not dare to act rashly without considerable financial strength.
After communicating with the financial director Lao Ding, he learned that the group company can currently use only two or three billion in funds. Guan Yuntian was puzzled by this, "Why do you only have this little money?"
"Mr. Guan, the group company originally had over one billion yuan of funds that could be used at any time. To take over the Haitian Business Center, it cost nearly 700 million yuan. In addition, due to the low price of raw materials some time ago, Mr. Ye saved money for auto parts.
We have purchased nearly 100 million raw materials, so there is only so much money available now," Lao Ding explained.
"In my impression, the funds we can use should be more than one billion, right? I remember you once said that in addition to working capital, Changda Group has more than two billion in funds that can be deployed. This was what you said in the first half of the year
"Guan Yuntian majored in mathematics and has a natural affinity for numbers. Once he hears it once, he can remember it for a long time.
"I have said this, but the more than two billion yuan includes a large part of accounts receivable. It can be said that if all the accounts receivable are collected, Changda Group's own funds will reach 30
Come on 100 million!"
"There are so many accounts receivable, why don't the relevant departments seize the time to collect them? Didn't you put pressure on them?" Guan Yuntian rarely uses this tone when discussing work with senior executives.
"It is abnormal for any company to have an excessively high proportion of accounts receivable. I know this very well. Therefore, I have talked with the relevant departments many times and asked them to step up collection of accounts receivable. They have also done some
I tried hard, but with little success." Lao Ding said.
"What's the reason? Paying back debts is a matter of course, but why does it have so little effect?"
"Mr. Guan, the impact of the financial crisis that swept the world last year on the domestic economy is gradually becoming apparent. Almost all of Changda Group's customers have established good cooperative relationships with us. In the past, repayments were very timely. Since last year,
Starting from the end of the year, the speed of repayment has been slow. I have talked with grassroots salesmen, and they believe that the customer is definitely not deliberately taking up the payment, but it is caused by the increase in inventory and poor turnover."
"I haven't asked you for more than a month. How is the situation at Changda Real Estate Company?" Guan Yuntian said.
"From the financial statements they sent a few days ago, it can be seen that the vacancy rate of commercial housing in Changda Real Estate has increased significantly compared with the same period last year, and more redeployable funds have been taken up here."
