Chapter 77: Recruiting key players to join the team

As the saying goes, when everyone adds firewood, the flames rise.

Lin Feng's next step is to do big things, and it will definitely not be enough for him and Li Xiongzhen alone.

If you want to pull people onto a pirate ship, no, you are conspiring to do something big, and bundling interests is the most effective way.

So after some thought, Lin Feng decided to allocate a small amount of equity to a few backbones, expand the group's shareholders' meeting, and attract more people to join the group to prevent him and Li Xiongzhen from being the only ones playing against each other for a long time.

But if you want to change the ownership structure, you must first discuss it with good friends.

"Xiong Zhen, Chen Xiong is back this time. Several of the main backbones of our Zhenming Group are here. I'm going to hold a group meeting tomorrow night." Lin Feng said first.

Li Xiongzhen pulled up a chair and sat down and said: "The group has been established for a long time. Various industries have developed rapidly recently, so we need to hold a meeting."

"In this meeting, I am going to adjust the group's shares and give a small portion of the shares to a few key players. Which ones do you think need to be divided?" Lin Feng asked.

"It's up to you to decide on this one, Yuanshan."

"What I'm considering is the shopkeepers of several branches, such as Zhang Tiechui, Chen Xiong, and Fang Dashan from the escort team. What about Yang Sen? Do you want to consider it?" Lin Feng said.

"Yang Sen should forget about it for now. I brought him here, and his current contribution is not very big."

"But he is still in charge of Li's Grain and Oil, so it would not be good to pull him down alone. There are also Fang Tiezhu and Fang Xiaoyu from the county government. Although they are not working in the group, they are closely related to the development of the group, and they must also be considered. Some shares.”

"Well, Yuan Shan's consideration makes sense, but I think it should be divided into first-come, first-served and the size of the contribution." Li Xiongzhen asked.

"Of course, that's why I'm considering focusing on the first batch of people who came here this time, giving due consideration to the key people who came later, and giving them less equity to show the difference." Lin Feng said.

"This principle is good. It not only takes care of the majority of the backbone, but also highlights the key points. So how many shares are appropriate?" Li Xiongzhen asked.

"Let's first estimate the value of our group. How much do you think it's worth now?" Lin Feng asked.

"When the group was established, you invested 5000 taels, and later added 3000 taels. You invested 2000 taels in Li's Construction and 1000 taels in the Grassland Trading Company. Most of these were fixed assets. Today, Chen Xiong brought back another 5000 taels worth of silver. The total value of the grain should be more than 1.5 taels." Li Xiongzhen replied.

"Xiong Zhen, have you missed the most valuable thing in the group?"

"What?" Li Xiongzhen asked in confusion.

"Intellectual property rights, or to put it simply, technology. Our wool products are selling well this time. What is the key?"

"Oh, yes, the key is wool degreasing technology."

"Yes, the value of these technologies must account for at least half of the total price of the group. So as group managers, we must take the intellectual property rights I am talking about, which are technology patents, as the first resource." Lin Feng nodded and Li Xiongzhen said .

"After this calculation, the value of the group must be at least more than 3 taels. Then my 5% share is not worth 1500 taels. This is too much. Let's reduce my shares a little."

Li Xiongzhen was shocked when he calculated that he had a net worth of 1500 taels in less than half a year.

"You don't need to reduce it. You are usually in charge of the group's industry, and this investment is also very important. But other people cannot give shares like this.

The current valuation of the group is 3 taels, which is still low. Our chemical technologies such as coking and alkali production are priceless treasures. If the value of the group is 10 or 100 million taels in the future, then even a few shares will be valuable. "Lin Feng explained.

"Yes, how much are Yuanshan prepared to give?"

"The group's temporary price is 3 taels. I am going to divide it into 500 shares. You will hold 5 shares, which is 100%. The first batch of backbone members to be allocated shares will each be allocated 1 shares, each holding %."

"100 shares is 300 taels, which is the annual salary of a county official for more than ten years, which is enough." Li Xiongzhen said after calculation.

"For the second batch of backbones, I plan to allocate 50 shares, accounting for 0.5%."

"That's enough. 50 shares are worth 150 taels of silver, which is six or seven years of income for ordinary people."

"Yes, the key is that the group's shares still have huge room for appreciation in the future. After the equity adjustment, the seven of you hold 7% of the shares and I hold 10%.

It seems that my shareholding is very high now, but as the group develops, we will need to bring in more people with weight and contribution. After these people come in, they will mainly share the equity from my side, and my shareholding ratio will continue to decrease. "Lin Feng explained.

"The group was founded and invested by Yuanshan. No matter how much you hold, it's appropriate." Li Xiongzhen expressed his understanding.

"In order to unite everyone closely and strive to strengthen the group, reasonable distribution of equity is also necessary." Lin Feng said.

After discussing the main matters and chatting for a while, Li Xiongzhen went back to prepare.

At night, Lin Zhai.

After a simple dinner was arranged to greet Chen Xiong, who had returned a few days ago, an extremely important backbone meeting of Zhenming Group was held.

In the main room of Lin's house, two square tables had been put together to form a conference table. Lin Feng naturally sat at the top, with Li Xiongzhen next to him, and behind him were Zhang Tiechui, Fang Dashan, Chen Xiong, Yang Sen and the county government officials. Fang Tiezhu, Fang Xiaoyu and others were his starting team.

After Lin Feng coughed lightly, he began to preside over today's meeting: "Our Zhenming Group has made great progress from its establishment in late July to late November. Tonight we will convene a meeting to sort out the development of the group. , but also to announce an important decision.

Although Tie Zhu and Xiao Yu are not currently working in the group, they still serve in the county government as per my request and provide protection for the group, so they can be considered as members of our group. Next, let me first talk about the development status of the group, Mr. Li. "

"According to the chairman's request, let me first talk about the current value of the group. In layman's terms, it means how much it is worth. The chairman invested 5000 taels to establish the group. Later, he successively injected 1.1 taels of capital and purchased a large number of fixed assets.

At present, the group has 6000 taels in small loans alone and 5000 taels worth of grain. Adding Fudong Courtyard, Sitong Village, and county shops, this amount reaches 1.5 taels without the appreciation of the shops.

The group has also developed key technologies such as coking, alkali making, and iron making. These technologies have great commercial value and have been tested by the market. Therefore, after preliminary discussions between the chairman and I, the group was tentatively valued at 3 taels, and the actual value was only higher but not lower.

Especially since November, with the hot sales of coal stoves and wool products, the monthly sales of Dahami Iron Art have exceeded 11 taels, Grassland Trading has exceeded 2000 taels, and Li's Grain and Oil has exceeded 1200 taels. Counting only these three main branches, the sales have reached 1500 taels. Two, the profit will be more than 4700 taels. "

"Bah bang bang!" Lin Feng took the lead in applauding.

"In addition, we have also built a convoy of more than 100 people. The equipment is very well-equipped. There should be no problem in defeating three to five hundred officers and soldiers. This gives our group the most reliable strength guarantee. Not just anyone can come and provoke Yes." Lin Feng added about the situation of the escort team, then took a sip of tea and continued:

"These achievements are the result of everyone's hard work, especially the key members here. In order to reward everyone's efforts and to make everyone the master of the group, I decided to allocate shares to everyone after discussing with the vice president. "

"President, what is allotment of shares?" Fang Dashan asked puzzledly.

"Allotment means allocating a certain amount of group shares to you. The Zhenming Group is temporarily worth 3 taels. I will divide the group into 3 shares, each worth taels of silver.

除了副会长按之前比例分配500股、占5%，第一批跟我来府谷的陈雄、张铁锤、方大山、方铁竹，每人分配100股、占1%。    第二批过来的杨森、方小鱼两人每人配股50股、占0.5%。”林峰按照商定的比例进行了股权的分配。

"President, 100 shares are worth 300 taels, aren't they? I have so much money at once?" Zhang Tiechui said happily as if he had never seen the world.

"Theoretically, this is true. Do you want to sell your shares?" Li Xiongzhen said.

"If you don't sell it, I'm not a fool. This group will definitely become more and more valuable. The key is that if you have shares, you will be the owner of the group." Zhang Tie is not stupid at all.

"Yes, 100 shares are worth 300 taels, and 50 shares are worth 150 taels. But the shares cannot be traded yet and are only used for dividends. If you want to transfer them privately, I won't stop you, but don't regret it in the future." Lin Feng said.

"I won't sell it, I won't sell it!" Fang Dashan, Chen Xiong and others all said in unison.

"This share is not static. It may change in the future as the group increases its capital. If you make any outstanding contributions, we can also increase your shares.

Currently, those with more than 1% of the shares are tentatively scheduled to join the shareholders' meeting. Chen Xiong, Fang Dashan, Zhang Tiezhui, and Fang Tiezhu are welcome to join the shareholders' meeting and participate in the discussion of major group events. Fang Xiaoyu and Yang Sen, please continue to work hard and join the shareholders' meeting again when you have the opportunity. Lin Feng continued.

"Welcome the four brothers to join the shareholders' meeting. Finally, it's not just me and the chairman who are performing a one-man show, hahaha." Li Xiongzhen was happy.

"Thank you, President, for your trust!" Chen Xiong and others said in unison.

"Okay, this meeting will end here tonight. The few people who entered the shareholders' meeting will stay for a while, and we will continue the meeting." Lin Feng said.

Soon, Fang Xiaoyu, Yang Sen and others left, leaving only six members of the shareholders' meeting. The two of them joined the team late, and they didn't have a good relationship like Li Xiongzhen, so they didn't have much to talk about.

Lin Feng invited everyone to sit down and said: "First of all, congratulations to everyone for joining the shareholders' meeting. This is not just a question of qualifications to participate in the meeting, but it means a change in your status. Iron Hammer also said just now, from employees of the group to The shareholders of the group are the owners.

So now the group's affairs have become our common affairs. In the future, it will be even more necessary for everyone to show their sense of ownership, put forward more opinions, and think of more ways to develop Zhenming Group. "

"The chairman is very right. As members of the shareholders' meeting, we must have a highly responsible attitude towards the group to complete various tasks." Li Xiongzhen then added.

“The shareholders’ meeting is the highest decision-making body of Zhenming Group, which means that all major issues of the group will be decided by this meeting.

The shareholders' meeting mainly exercises voting rights based on equity. Now I hold the vast majority of the equity. It can be said that I have the final decision-making power. However, all shareholders in the shareholders' meeting have the right to speak, and I will fully listen to everyone's opinions. "Lin Feng explained the decision-making mechanism of the shareholders' meeting.

"President, we have always listened to you, just give us your instructions." Zhang Tiechui said carelessly.

"It seems that I let you join the shareholders' meeting for nothing, why don't you just let me go?" Lin Feng joked.

"No, no, no, no! Why don't I actively offer opinions?" Zhang Tiechui, of course, also knew the importance of equity and kept saying.

"As the saying goes, one person is poor and others are talented. Everything depends on me and Xiong Zhen. There must be things that we can't think of and can't grasp, so we need to attract you to the shareholders' meeting. More key people will come in in the future. You have to Really play a good role." Lin Feng warned again.

At this time, everyone did not dare to neglect, and quickly said seriously: "Understood!"

"In addition, our shareholders' meeting has been officially established. We need to set up a secretary office to be responsible for handling the specific matters of the shareholders' meeting." Lin Feng ordered.

"President, what are the main responsibilities of the Secretary's Office?" Li Xiongzhen asked.

"One of the main responsibilities is to handle the proceedings of the shareholders' meeting, the second is to handle the relevant documents of the group, and the other is to work part-time in the group's finances. Now that the group is not large, we won't subdivide it into parts. We will unify it together first," Lin Feng thought. He replied after a while.

"Well, this responsibility is more comprehensive. I suggest that Lin Jiakang should be the secretary in charge." Li Xiongzhen suggested.

"Okay, let this kid learn and work first. Xiongzhen, you can choose one or two more people for him, and you can't let him become a bare commander." Lin Feng said.

"Okay, I'll implement it as soon as possible." Li Xiongzhen took the order.

“Also, members of the shareholders’ meeting must not only implement the arrangements of the shareholders’ meeting, but also be independently responsible for related business.

Xiong Zhen is the vice chairman of the shareholders' meeting and chief treasurer. He is responsible for the daily commercial affairs of the group and is also the treasurer of Zhenming Chemical and Zhenming Bank. "

"President, I have too many things to do. You need to find someone to help me share the burden." Li Xiongzhen said with a headache.

When Lin Feng heard that this was indeed the case, he thought for a while and said: "Last time the refugees attacked the city, Zhao Jialiang from Qingyang Mansion was a good man. He was a bookkeeper and he was loyal. You can choose him to Zhenming Bank to help you."

"That's great. Bank affairs are complicated and sensitive, so someone needs to keep an eye on them for a long time." Li Xiongzhen said happily.

"Use the person first, and pay attention to strengthen the inspection. If you can use it, you can take over as the manager of the bank, and if it doesn't, replace it." Lin Feng ordered.

"Okay. There are many new people joining the group now. I suggest that we organize training at an appropriate time so that everyone understands what our group does and what our beliefs are." Li Xiongzhen added.

"Xiong Zhen's proposal is very good. You should take the lead in making preparations and organize training in due course."

"Okay!" Li Xiongzhen replied.

"Next, let me talk about the responsibilities of other people. Chen Xiong, you are mainly responsible for the management of Sitong Express and the Jiazhou branch. You are mainly in Jiazhou at ordinary times and come back once a quarter to report on your work." Lin Feng then clarified the responsibilities of each shareholder.

"Understood!" Chen Xiong replied.

"Zhang Tiechui, you are mainly responsible for Sledgehammer iron art. It is now the group's main money-making industry. We need to study more on ironmaking technology and cultivate ironmaking talents."

"Yes!" Zhang Tiechui simply accepted the order.

"Fang Dashan and Fang Tiezhu are in charge of the group's escort team and the county government's strong force respectively. They are the group's most reliable force guarantee. You must train and prepare for war." Lin Feng continued.

"Don't worry, President, we will hurry up!"

"The construction of the army has always been sensitive. The Guards accept the leadership of the shareholders' meeting and me, and the Minzhuang Team accepts the leadership of the county government and me. If there is any important matter, you must report it to me in time.

If I am unable to issue an order due to special reasons, or if I cannot be found due to emergencies, Li Xiongzhen will temporarily take command. do you understand? "The issue of military power cannot be taken lightly," Lin Feng emphasized again.

"Understood!" they both replied in unison.
