First, there are three fires for new officials to take office.

Boss Yang has now become the new boss of Wang An Computer Company, and holds more than half of the company's shares, holding absolute controlling rights. Any decision made by the other party can even ignore the opinions of the shareholders on the board of directors.

In this case, no one is stupid enough to jump out to object, because once they jump out, nine out of ten they will be killed to make an example to the new boss.

When dealing with Wang Lie, the prince, some people can rely on the old to sell the old, but they dare not do this in front of Boss Yang. Any new boss can't tolerate employees with high prestige in the company.

Therefore, even if everyone has an opinion, they will only hold it in their hearts. If they can't hold it back, they will discuss it in private at most. They will never dare to boycott Boss Yang like the prince who boycotted Wang Lie.

The second thing is naturally everyone's recognition of Jobs' ability.

Although Jobs was kicked out by the company's shareholders and management, this does not mean that Jobs was incapable. Although Apple was weaker than Wang An Computer, its development speed should not be underestimated.

And Jobs started from scratch and became a billionaire in just a few years. Who would dare to say that such a person has no ability?

In the eyes of the big guys, Jobs lost not because of his incompetence, but because of the evil capitalists.

In the United States, the power of capital is the most powerful party. No one or any force can compete with capital. Although Jobs is the founder of Apple, he still has to succumb to capital and abide by the rules of the capital game.

In the chairman's office, both John Chambers and Jobs felt a bit hesitant about Yang Chen's proposal.

"Chairman, I have no objection if the foundry is built in Xiangjiang, but I reserve my opinion if it is built in that country." Jobs expressed his thoughts directly without hiding anything.

Originally, he thought that Yang Chen would at most transfer the foundry of Wang An Computer to Xiangjiang, which would reduce part of the labor cost, but he didn't expect that the other party wanted to directly build the foundry in that newly opened country.

To be honest, although Jobs changed some of his prejudices against the Chinese because of Yang Chen, he still conservatively chose to keep his opinions on that legendary country that didn't even have a decent industrial foundation.

Yang Chen glanced at Jobs, did not explain to him, turned his head to look at John Chambers, and asked, "John Chambers, what do you think?"

Seeing Boss Yang's questioning, John Chambers expressed his opinion without any hesitation.

"Chairman, personal computers are developing very fast now. In addition to solving our own software defects, we also need to reduce the cost of personal computers. Only when the cost drops can we win back the market."

"So, I don't have any opinion on the transfer of the foundry, whether it's Xiangjiang, Southeast Asia, or that ancient oriental country, I don't have any opinion."

"However, there is a premise, that is, while reducing costs, the quality of our company's products cannot be reduced, and the company's brand name cannot be messed up because of cost reduction."

As he said that, John Chambers paused for a moment and continued: "I have been in charge of the sales business in Asia before, and I also understand the restrictions on foreign investment in that country. If we transfer the foundry, the controlling stake will be In this way, there may be some objections from the board of directors."

When he said this, John Chambers looked up at Boss Yang. Although Yang Chen is the major shareholder of the company and enjoys the absolute decision-making power of the company, Wang An Computer is a listed company after all, and the company has other shareholders. And the board of directors.

Boss Yang can be strong, but he can't completely ignore the opinions of the company's shareholders.

Of course, ignoring it is okay, but the premise must be to bring benefits to the company. As long as there are enough benefits, then even if it is a bit stronger, no one will say anything.

Listed companies have the rules and regulations of listed companies. Even major shareholders must take into account the rights and interests of other small shareholders.

This is also the reason why Yang Chen likes privatization. Private companies don't have as many troubles as listed companies. Basically, things decided by the boss can be done without any scruples, regardless of whether it will harm the company's interests.

But listed companies can't do it. Shareholders have the right to object to any decision that harms the interests of shareholders.

Furthermore, it is not uncommon for shareholders and company management to override major shareholders.

Of course, this kind of thing will definitely not happen to Boss Yang. Compared with Yang's consortium, Wang An's computer is still far behind.

As long as Yang Chen doesn't go too far, neither the company's management nor shareholders will object to Boss Yang's decision.

After listening to the two people's opinions, Yang Chen shook his head and said: "We have discussed it before, the company's main energy in the future will be concentrated on research and development and sales. With the continuous growth of the personal computer market, the update speed of hardware and software is very fast. Fast, so the company must maintain an advantage in this regard.”

"The personal computer market will be huge in the future. I don't need to repeat this point. It is impossible for us to develop and sell while employing and managing 10,000+ or ​​even 10,000+ workers to produce equipment.

Therefore, in this item of production, in addition to the core technology, the rights must be divested, and the company can find a foundry to cooperate with. "

Speaking of this, Yang Chen frowned, and then made a decision: "You don't need to worry about the foundry, I will arrange this matter clearly, and I will also persuade the company's shareholders."

"Now I will draw a horizontal line for the two of you, take care of your own affairs, and don't meddle in the other's decision. I can fully trust you two, and I hope you can fully trust each other..."

Jobs and John Chambers looked at each other. They knew very well why Yang Chen separated them and took care of their own affairs. Apart from avoiding unnecessary internal conflicts, it also meant to check and balance each other.

However, Yang Chen made such an arrangement, and the two of them didn't have any objections.

For John Chambers, the existence of Jobs seems to make his rights smaller on the surface, but in fact it is not.

Yang Chen, the big boss, lives in Xiangjiang all the year round, and the number of visits to the United States in the past year can be counted on one's fingers, so that the company's operations will not be interfered too much.

Because of Yang Chen's support, he, the general manager, is largely free from the constraints of shareholders and directors, and his decision-making freedom is relatively much greater.

Comparing the two, if he does a good job as the general manager, he will definitely be more comfortable than being the CEO of other companies.

As for Jobs, Yang Chen's arrangement is undoubtedly very appetizing to him. He is not used to worrying about things other than research and development. At the beginning, he tried his best to invite Sculley to be the CEO of Apple, so that he could concentrate on research and development. .

It's just that what he didn't expect was that the people he personally invited not only failed to help him in the end, but drove him out instead.

Now Yang Chen divides the rights of Wang An Computer Company into two, so that they don't interfere with each other, which is naturally the best thing for Jobs.

Chapter 1018

After talking with the two of them, Yang Chen let them leave.

Regarding the clarification of the rights of the two, Boss Yang naturally has his own ideas. Separation of powers does not mean division. The scale of Wang An Computer Company is so large that it is impossible to concentrate the entire company's rights in the hands of one person.

Even if it is concentrated, it can only be concentrated in the hands of his big boss.

When dealing with the people below, it is necessary to decentralize checks and balances. Only in this way can he, the boss, control the company better.

As for whether the separation of power between the two will have a bad impact, Yang Chen is not particularly worried. Just like a family, a company always needs one outsider and one inside, so that the family can be harmonious.

The two are responsible for different directions, and there is no interest involved. As long as they are not ambitious people, it is impossible to interfere with the other party.

Of course, whether there will be chaos in the company mainly depends on the attitude of Boss Yang. Whether it is John Chambers or Jobs, both of them have similar identities. To put it bluntly, they are just wage earners.

As long as Boss Yang clearly supports whom, the other party can only cooperate no matter what their opinion is, if they don't cooperate, they will leave.

It's that simple, it's that direct.

Jobs left Apple mainly due to the greed of capitalists. Those shareholders could not tolerate him as the founder, so Jobs was forced to leave.

If there is no support from those shareholders, even if an outsider becomes the CEO, how can he have the ability to oppose Jobs, the founder.

John Chambers and Jobs, Yang Chen valued only Jobs, no matter how powerful John Chambers was, he could not surpass Gangzhu Qiao. The former was not irreplaceable, but the latter was truly irreplaceable.

If John Chambers can cooperate well with Jobs and support Jobs' ideas, then the position of general manager will naturally be able to sit forever.

If there is a conflict between the two, no matter who is right and who is wrong, the person who leaves in the end cannot be Gang Leader Qiao.

Regarding the foundry, Yang Chen naturally decided based on the development of future technology companies. Most of the future technology giants did not set up their own production lines, and basically needed a foundry to be responsible for product production.

Stripping off the production line can transfer the company's resources and energy to product research and development to a greater extent.
