Chapter 2396 Another Talent

Generally speaking, it is a taboo in the workplace for subordinates to make suggestions to top bosses without going through the same level.

Before the press conference, the content was temporarily changed, and the content was changed so much, which is the biggest taboo among taboos! ! !

Why did Zhou Shouzi dare to bypass Lei Jun to make such a suggestion to Chen Mo?

Because he has the confidence!

In the previous life, this senior worker from a foreign country, who combines talent and appearance, attracted countless fans overnight.

He attracted much attention during the hearing of the hegemony country. When facing the 5-hour and extremely brainless questioning of 52 congressmen, he still remained calm, calm, fluent, and elegant.

In contrast, Zuckerberg, the founder of Facebook, performed very poorly when facing the same questioning.

This courage and boldness made Zhou Shouzi the dream lover of hundreds of millions of girls overnight.

He is Zhou Shouzi, who helped the rice company go public, served as an executive in many Fortune 500 companies, and later served as CEO of the most well-known Douyin.

What is most astonishing is that all his billions of dollars in wealth are earned from working, and he is known as the "working emperor of the new century".

Zhou Shouzi's resume is very impressive.

Both his parents are overseas Chinese, and his family is well-off. He has been studying in the top schools in Singapore since he was a child.

After graduating from high school, he joined the army, retired with the rank of captain two years later, and then entered the world's top universities.

When he was in college, Zhou Shouzi joined Gaosheng Company as a management trainee and investment assistant.

Just looking at his resume as a student, he can kill 99% of the people in the world in seconds.

After graduating from college at the age of 23, he soared to the sky.

First, he joined Gaosheng Company as an investment bank analyst, and at the age of 25, he was admitted to Harvard University's MBA.

At the age of 27, after graduating from the MBA, he joined a well-known investment fund as a partner.

During this period, with the help of Zhou Shouzi, the fund invested in large-scale leading Internet companies including Jindong, Ali, Douyin, and Dami.

The investment amount in 5 years was only 5 billion Ba Guo Yuan, but the income was as high as 200 billion Ba Guo Yuan!

Such income, even Chen Mo, the reborn, would be ashamed of himself in the first 5 years.

At the age of 32, Zhou Shouzi joined the Rice Company as the CFO. He was the spokesperson for the Rice Company in the overseas market and the youngest CFO in the history of the Fortune 500.

At the age of 36, Zhou Shouzi became a partner of the Rice Company and owned a lot of shares in the Rice Company.

At the age of 37, he became the vice president of the Rice Company.

Then Douyin spent a huge amount of money and gave him a lot of shares. He was poached to serve as the CEO of Douyin Company and developed Douyin into the world's number one short video platform, with a global user base of 1.7 billion, more than the users of Moxun TT!

It can be said that Chen Mo has come to this point today because of his rebirth.

But Zhou Shouzi himself is like a cheat. His first half of his life was almost completely smooth sailing, without any setbacks at all.

The key is that his wife is also beautiful, and his wife, like Zhou Shouzi, comes from a wealthy family, graduated from Harvard MBA, likes investment and entrepreneurship, and is also the CEO of a Fortune 500 company.

It is not an exaggeration to say that Zhou Shouzi is a reduced version of Chen Mo.

Of course, unlike Chen Mo, Zhou Shouzi has a bit of bad luck in love.

But this is too common in the circle of wealthy people.

Zhou Shouzi's wife has a similar attitude to Gong Ziyuan. As long as she lives a good life at home, it doesn't matter how much she spends outside.

People who are familiar with Lei Jun know that he rarely criticizes others in public. Even if he is angry, he will only use vague words such as "friendly business" and "a certain investor" to criticize without naming them.

However, in his previous life, Lei Jun "broke the rules" at a sharing meeting and criticized a senior executive by name for the first time.

He said: "A few years ago, when Dami decided to build cars and the company was in a "particularly painful" period, a young executive who had been carefully trained and had high hopes for the company suddenly resigned, which gave him a "blow on the head."

The person who abandoned Lei Jun during the "particularly painful" period was Zhou Shouzi.

So why did Zhou Shouzi abandon Lei Jun when Dami was in a particularly difficult situation?

In fact, it was because in 2020, after two years of hard work, Dami finally got out of the quagmire of spiraling stock prices and rose back to the issue price of 17 yuan.

Lei Jun was very happy and gave 440 million yuan worth of stocks to the three executives as rewards.

Logically, as the CFO of Dami, Zhou Shouzi made a greater contribution to the stock price and should have received stock rewards, but he received 100 million shares at a price of 24.5 yuan - he has the right to purchase 100 million shares of Dami at a price of 24.5 yuan in a certain period of time in the future.

Lei Jun's approach is intended to encourage Zhou Shouzi to continue working for the company. Even if the rice stock price rises to 100 yuan in the future, he can still buy the stock at 24.5 yuan.

If the rice develops well, Zhou will earn more; if it develops normally, he will earn less; if it fails, then it will be a waste of money.

This is a reward that looks good, but Lei Jun added a time limit to this reward, which can only be redeemed in 10 years, that is, in 2030.

In other words, Lei Jun wants to use a 10-year long contract to bind Zhou Shouzi and make him follow him wholeheartedly.

If it were an ordinary worker, he would definitely agree happily. After all, what kind of person is Lei Jun?

Da Mi's future must be bright!

However, Zhou Shouzi refused because he didn't believe that there was a "big pie" in the world with a shelf life of 10 years. Who knows what the stock price of Da Mi will be like in 10 years!

So six months later, Zhou Shouzi found a reason to leave Da Mi Company.

When the outside world was regretting that he lost 100 million shares.

Hey, he suddenly announced that he would be the CEO of Douyin, and he also got more valuable shares, and it was not the kind of pie in the sky.

Zhou Shouzi's family is rich, and he has been financially free for so many years. Moreover, he is really strong. Of course, no one is spoiled in the workplace. He can say whatever he wants, without any taboos.

What's the point of talking to the leader over the level?

If he is unhappy, he will just leave!

There are many Fortune 500 companies that want to poach him.

Chen Mo had the idea of ​​poaching people, so he patiently asked back: "Xiao Zhou, do you think I diss Sansang just for hype?"

"Isn't it?"

Zhou Shouzi always thought so.

"Hype is only part of it. Another important reason is macro positioning."

Chen Mo explained: "The latest flagship phone of Xiaomi has just been launched. In addition to Mi fans, many consumers lack an accurate positioning of this phone. Many people even have prejudices against Xiaomi phones, thinking that Xiaomi is a low-end and cheap phone, and have a deep prejudice against Xiaomi phones."

"But we should be considered as the high-end one."

Zhou Shouzi gave a more accurate summary: "Our configuration is comparable to some 3,500 yuan phones, and even a little higher than the 4,000 yuan phone of Sansang."

Chen Mo nodded: "Yes, you are an expert, so you understand, but do consumers understand?"

"So we touch Sansang, and by setting up an imaginary enemy, let consumers quickly position Xiaomi phones, so that the price advantage will be more obvious."
