What's wrong with me being a rich man?

Chapter 157 Wheel War

Yu Xing was very excited and he had really met the talent he needed.

In fact, this is also the news he released since the first issue, looking for high-end elites with an annual salary of one million to jointly build the recruitment section of Bai Xiaosheng's business.

It's not that Yu Xing has to delegate the task to others, but the nature of the business has such a rigid requirement. In addition, he has also noticed the vague problems of the three major companies in the current market, and they intend to openly fish for fish.

ChinaHR was acquired, Zhaopin.com had internal conflicts, and 51job.com adjusted its senior management positions. These problems, big and small, are actually a reflection of the entire employment market.

In other words, it is still the aftermath of the financial crisis.

Data from multiple companies show that recruitment demand in the entire industry has almost been wiped out. The continued downturn is directly reflected in the supply and demand data of the talent resources market. The number of new jobs released in the first quarter of this year has been the lowest since 2001. Among them, the financial sector is the most serious, and real estate has also performed poorly. The market is mainly dominated by sales positions in small and medium-sized companies.

Looking back, the bottom of this data in 2001 was also affected by the global crisis, which was the Internet bubble crisis.

External crises lead to a decline in performance, which naturally tends to magnify internal conflicts.

Yu Xing felt that he could wait for the best talents, whether it was this stage, contact from his own company, or introduction from investors.

Of course, it was still a bit surprising that Lei Weiming came to this show before he resigned.

Don't be so anxious, no one has grabbed it yet.

Yu Xing felt that his website already had a certain foundation, but the number of users exceeding 5 million has not been disclosed to the public. Many people only know Bai Xiaosheng as a "whistleblower platform" formed after several incidents and are unaware of the rapid growth of its user base.

The fact that Lei Weiming came straight to him under such circumstances could at least be considered as him having his own judgment.

Yu Xing looked cheerful, as if he had met a talented general, and did not hide his feelings at all, which made the other BOSSes present somewhat dissatisfied.

How can you be too happy?
Do you know that you have made many people unhappy by creating such a platform?

Cai Dabiao was the first to fire: "It's strange that Lei Weiming would come to our stage since he has not resigned from the company. Shouldn't we convey the most basic workplace concepts to the audience?"

Yu Xing replied in a good mood: "Boss Cai, please don't mention the transmission."

"I am a guest sitting here. Is there anything I cannot say? This is a stage for job seekers and bosses!" Cai Dabiao would not retreat easily once he started talking. "Bai Xiaosheng wants to do recruitment business, and now an executive who has not resigned from the original company wants to jump ship and start a competing product. Is this still worthy of praise?"

Without mentioning the trouble Cai Dabao is facing at the moment, there is nothing wrong with this statement alone.

Vancl's boss Chen Nian immediately agreed: "This is my first time on this show. Since it is a show, and since it is facing a national audience, there are employees who are working and students who are not yet employed, then we should convey the correct values. I think this choice is problematic."

"What is the correct value system?" Yu Xing said with a smile, "I am a small company. On the left are my users. I am responsible for them and I protect their information. On the right are my employees. I want the company to make money and let the employees have more and more salaries and bonuses. I can take care of both sides. This is my idea."

Chen Nian asked, "What about Zhaopin? He hasn't resigned from Zhaopin yet!"

Yu Xing replied: "We can get a divorce now. We can ask Mr. Lei to call and resign now. He will become my Bai Xiaosheng's man!"

Chen Nian continued to question: "What about the damage caused to Zhaopin by his entering into a competitive business?"

Yu Xing replied: "If Bai Xiaosheng wants to compete with Zhaopin.com, shouldn't the competitor be harmed?"

There was laughter from the audience.

Chen Nian was stunned. No, no, let me think about it, let me think about it.

Li Song from Zhenai.com, who was sitting two seats away, saw Chen Nian choking on his words and took over the microphone: "Business competition is business competition, but it cannot be competition without bottom line. This will only destroy the entire environment."

Li Song has his reasons for speaking up, and I won't mention the earlier revelations. He recently noticed that his wife was not in a good mood, and he also suffered the consequences. The main reason was the real attack on her husband that was triggered by Bai Xiaosheng.

It's true that Zhen Gongfu had problems, but it was very inhumane for Bai Xiaosheng to know about it in advance and not inform him at all.

Yu Xing sighed at his old friend's words and said, "Yes, yes, I destroy the environment. I am busy destroying the environment all day long. I have to deliver bad pork ribs in the morning, run to the market to sell fake clay pots in the morning, and deal with disobedient employees who record in the afternoon. I can't rest after get off work at night. I have to work late into the night and study hard to make my knowledge match my doctoral certificate."

"People like me are born to destroy the environment, Mr. Li, don't you think so?"

Li Song wanted to speak but was interrupted by laughter from the audience again.

He turned his head and saw Yu Xing's carefree eyes. After thinking about it, he felt that the thorns on Zhenai.com seemed easy to be picked... Forget it, let's call a truce.

"Mr. Yu is busy all day long, busy with this and that, busy with showmanship, busy with attracting traffic. Without Mr. Yu's help in attracting traffic, I think Bai Xiaosheng will go bankrupt in a few days." Cai Dabao recovered and caught up with him and said something.

Yu Xing admitted straightforwardly: "Yes, Bai Xiaosheng needs to attract customers, and they especially need me as the CEO. After all, Bai Xiaosheng only has me as the CEO. It's not like a real husband. If you quit as the CEO, there will be other CEOs waiting in line to take your place."

Cai Dabiao said angrily: "You..."

"Our show is quite bold." Yu Xing didn't look at Biaozi. Today, there was also the chairman of Steel Group in the audience, so he would pay attention to Biaozi's movements. "Hey, hey, Mr. Zhang, let's move on. Are you just standing on the stage and watching the fun?"

Zhang Shaogang pointed in a direction: "You must cut this sentence."

Bi Sheng of LeTao.com was watching the excitement with great interest. He said, "Our boss here should just fight Yu Xing as hard as he can. The more you fight him, the happier he will be. His website loves this, and so do his users."

Cai Dabiao stopped talking, Chen Nian frowned, and Li Song remained silent.

"Boss Bi, I forgot about you." Yu Xing clarified, "I just found out that Boss Bi said I said vertical e-commerce is a dead end. Let me clarify here that I never said that."

Bi Sheng was anxious: "Hey, Mr. Yu, you didn't say such words, this is what you meant."

When Chen Nian heard this, he accused his old friend: "Bi Sheng, it turns out you were the one spreading rumors. I left the company office to you!"

The current office of Letao.com is the original location of Vancl.

Because Vancl was developing very quickly, it moved to a new location. Coincidentally, Bi Sheng, an old friend of his, wanted to start a business, so he even left the place and things to him.

Bi Sheng was unhappy and said, "I am telling the truth. I am using the changes in my company to speak for myself. I think what Mr. Yu said before about the problems of vertical e-commerce is very targeted. I gave up selling shoes and now do brand special sales. Can I still lie like this?"

He turned sideways and faced Yu Xing: "Mr. Yu, you need to make your words clear today, so that the audience won't misunderstand me as spreading rumors."

"I think vertical e-commerce will encounter problems, but it is not a dead end. I am also optimistic about the current model of Letao.com." Yu Xing spread his hands, "Letao.com is still a vertical e-commerce now."

Bi Sheng concluded: "So, just to complete the sentence, except for LeTao.com, which has a special sale model, other vertical e-commerce companies are dead. Am I right?"

He thought Yu Xing would continue to defend himself and explain, but he just nodded.

Yu Xing answered simply: "Yes."

The smile on Chen Nian's face froze, and his anger rose again, but he still held it back and confirmed, "Boss Yu, do you think Vancl can't do well?"

Yu Xing answered again simply: "Yes."

Chen Nian laughed angrily: "You, an outsider, are so confident. It's a good thing for young people to have the courage to start a business, but I think they still need to have basic business knowledge. Vancl was established at the end of 07. We only sold 11 shirts on the first day, but last year's revenue exceeded 1 million. This year we hope to break 10 billion. Next year's goal is 20 billion. In the future, Vancl will become the preferred clothing brand for young people in China and achieve a revenue of 100 billion!" "You are a person who has never engaged in e-commerce. Do you think it is appropriate for you to evaluate a company that sells hundreds of millions of things? You keep saying that it is a dead end, but investors don't think so, consumers don't think so, and our company's development curve doesn't think so!"

"As a B2C clothing vertical e-commerce company, it took me less than two years to surpass my three competitors, Masa Maso, Mengbasha and Maiwang. Yu Xing, if you think your understanding is right, you should try it yourself instead of just talking big!"

Chen Nian was really angry and didn't like this kind of evaluation coming from a young entrepreneur.

What made him most uncomfortable was that his old friend Bi Sheng was actually bewitched in that way. He was clearly already making shoe products, but he turned around and threw away all the original ones.

The boss from Vancl spoke passionately on the microphone, presenting the development of Vancl, pointing out Yu Xing's amateurishness, and confidently letting him leave, which was quite powerful.

However, Yu Xing couldn't be sure of anything else, but there was really nothing wrong with Vancl's failure...

He paused for a moment, and then summarized the development of Vancl with a classic saying, saying slowly: "If you stand on the wind, even a pig can fly."

Then he made another turn: "But when the wind blows away, the pigs in the sky will fall badly."

Chen Nian wanted to stand up but held back, commenting: "Yu Xing, you are just good at talking! If you have the guts, start your own e-commerce business, and let me see how you fly!"

Yu Xing gave a positive response: "Although you don't need to know how to refrigerate to evaluate the quality of a refrigerator, I do think the current model of LeTao.com is good. So, I introduced my friend who is an investor to Mr. Bi. The two sides have financing contacts. I have money with my friend. Is this also indirect?"

Chen Nian turned his gaze to Bi Sheng.

Bi Sheng nodded, confirming that this was indeed the case. He had already spoken to Mr. Liu from Red Falcon Capital on the phone, and would give priority to funds from Red Falcon when raising funds in the future.

"Everyone has their own limitations. We just use our own efforts to verify our own good or bad views." Yu Xing couldn't continue the conversation like this. There was a vice president on the stage. "There is no point in talking more. Let time prove it."

Chen Nian was still unconvinced: "Let time prove that such words are meaningless."

Yu Xing could only make the meaning of his words clear: "Okay, Mr. Chen, this time won't be too long. After all, a giant like Taobao can't tolerate you for a few years."

A shadow flashed through Chen Nian's mind, and he couldn't continue speaking.

He also believes that the space for vertical e-commerce will be compressed, but as long as he runs fast enough, he will definitely succeed.

The choice of job applicant Lei Weiming was not unexpected. His time on stage seemed to be just a vehicle for the bosses' debate. His choice of Bai Xiaosheng was as firm as Yu Xing's choice of him.

It was only at this point in the recording of "If You Are the One" that Yu Xing recruited his first employee.

After half a day of recording, Yu Xing couldn't wait to communicate with Lei Weiming and once again expressed his determination to do recruitment business.

The two were chatting here when Bi Sheng came over.

"Let's go and eat."

Yu Xing smiled and asked Lei Weiming to talk while eating. Then he looked at Bi Sheng and remembered something related. He informed him, "By the way, Mr. Bi, I have launched a price comparison website that compares all e-commerce products on the Internet. Next week, I will upload the data of your Letao and Vancl."

Bi Sheng was stunned: "You don't need to use mine. There is no big competition between Vancl and me. Although we both make clothes, I am just selling off the leftovers."

"Everyone is selling clothes online, isn't this competition?" Yu Xing said with a smile.

Bi Sheng still shook his head: "You don't need to do this. I don't want to compete with Vancl. I used to sell toys and shoes. At that time, I considered that Lao Chen had already made clothes, so I didn't go in this direction. Now there is not so much competition. My model is vertical."

Yu Xing said: "Competition is competition. Just like I said during the recording, shouldn't competitors be hurt?"

Bi Sheng emphasized: "Mr. Yu, no need, I mean, no need!"

Yu Xing nodded and said, "Well, I'm not discussing it with you, I'm just informing you."

Bi Sheng: “?”

He stopped and looked at Yu Xing's expression, and found that he was serious.

Bi Sheng felt it was ridiculous: "Why are you crazy? I don't need it!"

"Do you need to have anything to do with my website? Liu Qiangdong said no, but I'll still go there." Yu Xing said in surprise, "I'm not responsible for you or your company. I'm only responsible for my company and my users."

Bi Sheng: “…”

He felt absurd and complicated at the same time, and suddenly pointed out: "Mr. Yu, you are the independent director of LeTao.com! Have you forgotten?"

Yu Xing said lightly: "If you insist, do you need me to quit now?"

Bi Sheng looked at Yu Xing, speechless for a long time, and then angrily said: "I'm not going to eat!"

"Okay, let's go, Mr. Lei." Yu Xing greeted the new vice president, "Mr. Bi is in a bad mood."

Bi Sheng: “…”

He took a step forward.

Song Yufeng, who had been quiet the whole time but was standing right next to him, took two steps around cautiously and looked at Bi Sheng with a fierce look. There was only one meaning in his eyes - what do you want to do?
Bi Sheng didn't move and watched the three people walk away. Damn, they deserved to bring bodyguards with them when recording the show!

Lunch was at the TV station, so it didn’t take much time.

Yu Xing returned to the recording site and continued to discuss Bai Xiaosheng's revenue solution with Lei Weiming.

Suddenly, Song Yufeng interrupted his boss's conversation, pointed at the website page on his notebook and said, "Boss Yu, Pan Yuhai has led people to break into Zhen Gongfu's headquarters!"

Yu Xing exclaimed, "Ah!" and turned to look at Cai Dabiao who was silent on the other side. He hesitated for two seconds and said, "Why didn't Mr. Cai call in? I'll go tell him."

He kindly stood up and walked towards Cai Dabao.

Cai Dabiao didn't want to pay attention to Yu Xing, but when he saw him coming over, he still asked sensitively: "Yu Xing, what are you doing?"

Yu Xingtong was informed: "Boss Cai, Pan Yuhai has brought people to break into your company."

Cai Dabiao was shocked and asked again: "How come I didn't know? It's impossible, no one informed me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the phone rang.

Cai Dabao's expression changed. He grabbed his cell phone, listened to a few words, then turned and left, confirming the authenticity of the news with his actions.

The bosses nearby were all shocked when they saw this scene. What kind of Jianghu know-it-all? What kind of information package was he looking for?

No, Mr. Yu, you got the news so quickly, you must have colluded with the rebels!
