I can become stronger by paying salaries. I have one billion employees!

Chapter 555 Just throwing money at me won't do! Master, are you going to fire me?
At 10:30 p.m., a black Maybach sped along the overpass toward the Yunjin Villa District.

"That little girl named Chengguo is quite cute. She's precocious for her age and keeps calling me 'brother' and 'sister'."

Song Yuncheng commented with a grin.

The two had just attended Yunsu Express's annual meeting. What impressed her most was Cheng Jie's daughter, the head of the Xuhui District station. She was fair-skinned, well-behaved, and had a particularly sweet mouth.

Chen Yansen smiled but didn't say anything.

He knew better than anyone what the future results would look like.

Of course, under his influence, the fate of Cheng Jie's family has undergone tremendous changes. Who can say for sure whether Cheng Guo will still be the child who chases after him and calls him "Dad" all day long?
For ordinary people, a single, brilliant decision can often change the course of their lives.

"You really like little girls?" Chen Yansen asked.

Looking at Song Yuncheng's smiling face, and recalling how she often called out in her dreams, "Are you hungry? Sweetie, Mommy's here," he made a casual guess.

“Boys or girls are fine. For example, my aunt’s two children have been following me around since they were little, asking me to buy them cotton candy and toys. It’s really fun.”

Song Yuncheng pulled his arm and replied with a smile.

But her smile only lasted a few seconds before she added, "It hasn't been fun for the last two years."

"That's how all middle school kids are."

Chen Yansen summarized succinctly.

"Would things be better in high school?" Song Yuncheng pressed.

"High school is a time when it's easy to fall in love early," Chen Yansen said with certainty.

“Master, when you were in high school…” Song Yuncheng asked cautiously.

"No! It's just that other people have a crush on me."

Chen Yansen crossed his legs and said smugly.

"Oh."

Song Yuncheng responded and dared not ask any more questions.

Sometimes, the more you ask and the clearer you understand, the more uncomfortable you become.

"Your car is still in Xucheng. I've already spoken to Liao Wei, and he'll send someone to deliver an Audi R8 tomorrow. I won't be going back to Lujiang with you. Be careful on the road."

Chen Yansen gently gave his instructions.

Starting tomorrow, Pinbei will be on holiday. Song Yuncheng followed him from Xucheng to Davos, then to Yanjing and Shanghai, and didn't even attend the annual meeting.

"Yes, Master, Happy New Year."

Song Yuncheng sensed the concern in Chen Yansen's words, so she leaned closer and said with a smile.

She could sense the change in Chen Yansen's attitude towards her, from his initial rudeness to his current obvious increase in patience.

Chen Yansen looked at her oval face, which was as pink as a peach, and reached out to pinch her cheek.

"Master, it hurts." Song Yuncheng cried out in pain, but did not move away from the side at all.

In her opinion, as long as Chen Yansen felt comfortable squeezing her, she was happy.

"Think carefully during the Spring Festival about who can take your place in the major account development department."

Chen Yansen saw through Song Yuncheng's thoughts, his heart softened, and he immediately had the idea of ​​promoting her.

Over the past year, under his guidance, Song Yuncheng has made rapid progress, and it is indeed time to promote him.

"Master, are you going to fire me?"

Song Yuncheng was slightly taken aback and asked subconsciously.

“I plan to transfer Yifeng to Southeast Asia to oversee the operation of Lazada’s projects, and then give the position of Director of Merchant Operations to Yuan Wei. However, he lacks management experience, so I need someone from my own circle to keep an eye on things.”

Chen Yansen explained slowly.

He paused for a moment and then said, "So, you will first take on the role of COO, responsible for supply chain coordination, inventory turnover, marketing campaign execution, and customer experience improvement."

When Song Yuncheng heard the words "one of our own," she was delighted, but when she heard that Chen Yansen wanted her to be COO, she quickly shook her head: "I'm afraid I won't do a good job and will embarrass you."

Seeing her pathetic state, Chen Yansen was about to scold her, but he forcibly held back.

He took a deep breath and said with a stern face, "If you don't understand, you can ask; if you don't know how, you can learn. Since you can manage the major client recruitment department so well, it shows that your ability is not bad."

Besides, I've been teaching you personally for three years; a good teacher produces a good student! Remember, don't let me down.

Are the apprentices taught by Chen Yansen not qualified to be COOs?
What a joke!
He had witnessed Song Yuncheng's hard work and comprehension. From initially having to repeatedly confirm even the contract terms to now being able to independently negotiate business collaborations worth tens or hundreds of millions, this growth did not come out of thin air.

Moreover, even that 'idiot' Wang Zihao can sit comfortably in the COO position of OFO bicycles, so Song Yuncheng's ability is far superior to his, there's no reason why he can't do it well.

"I promise I won't embarrass you." Song Yuncheng clenched her fist and replied earnestly.

"Hmm, if you don't do a good job, I'll transfer you to the customer service department."

Chen Yansen threatened.

Song Yuncheng nodded repeatedly, offering Chen a rosy picture and recounting his inaugural declaration.

Based on her understanding of Chen Yansen, she knew that if she failed to take on the role of COO, he would not show any mercy.

at the same time.

Delivery riders across the country are still busy running around the streets and alleys.

Many people have earned five or six hundred yuan since they started working this evening.

Once KuaiPao and TaoDianDian declared war, the number of food delivery orders across the country surged, driven by red envelope subsidies.

Qiandu Waimai's market share plummeted, with fewer than 17 orders placed between 23 PM and 20 PM, a dismal performance. Its delivery riders fled en masse, some joining KuaiPao or TaoDianDian.

All that's left are a group of riders who have signed full-time contracts, watching others make a fortune while they can only keep their order-taking apps running on Baidu, waiting for a few sporadic food deliveries.

The timing of the two companies' all-out war was very awkward, with only two days left before the Spring Festival.

Most food delivery riders have high turnover rates; in Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, and other cities, as many as half of the riders have taken the train home.

In order to win this battle, Tang Yongbo not only relaxed the application requirements for Taodian riders, but also increased the unit price and order-boosting rewards during the Spring Festival in an attempt to stabilize transportation resources.

Kuaipao, on the other hand, doesn't have to worry about this problem at all. It has 20 full-time riders, and the number of food delivery orders usually decreases during the Spring Festival. Its existing delivery capacity is sufficient to handle these orders.

Therefore, Li Yanhong only had two paths before him: to join the battle and fight back, or to become a spectator and wait to die.

Once users get used to it, abandoning Qiandu Waimai will be a piece of cake.

Participating in the battle means investing huge sums of money to subsidize riders and users, but the losses in other businesses over the past two years have already made the financial statements look bad.

But if they don't work hard, Baidu's takeout business might not survive the Spring Festival.

After the New Year, when users have been ordering takeout from Kuai Pao and Tao Diandian for more than ten days, who will still remember Qian Du Takeout?

After a moment's thought, he picked up his phone and dialed Wang Zhongpu's number, his voice carrying a long-lost firmness: "We need to hold an emergency meeting at nine o'clock tomorrow morning. We need to re-plan our operational strategy for the Spring Festival period."

Li Yanhong's constantly changing policies left Wang Zhongpu completely bewildered.

Every time he tried to give it his all, his boss pulled him back; just when he was about to give up, his boss's enthusiasm returned.

That's insane!

“Okay, boss,” Wang Zhongpu replied.

Some things are better left unsaid; saying them out loud is just unpleasant.

He had a vague feeling that there was really no chance of advancement at Baidu. Could the project succeed with a boss like that?
For a moment, Wang Zhongpu had the idea of ​​changing jobs.

……

……

The next morning, Kuaipao released version 3.1, specifically for food delivery subsidy coupons, and launched a brand-new UI style and product price display logic.

The system will calculate based on the discount rules, the amount of the coupon, and the price of the product. Different products will display different prices after the coupon based on how well their prices match the coupon threshold.

Users can see at a glance the actual amount they pay for the current product, without having to do the mental calculations.

In addition, Pinbei has also made corresponding adjustments, separating the Kuaipao subsidy red envelopes and using a prominent "red unread message" icon to remind users to go to the food delivery channel to place an order.

Pei Yi made various improvements to users, merchants, products, and delivery time.

He knew that simply throwing money at the problem wouldn't work; he had to focus on improving user experience and user retention.

You can buy users with money, but only an excellent service experience can buy truly high-value users.

In addition to making the actual payment amount clear at a glance, Pinbei has also optimized the rating system, allowing users to more easily see other consumers' real feedback on products and services, and thus filter rating keywords according to their own needs to quickly find useful information.

For merchants, Kuaipao has launched more refined operational guidance, providing them with inventory preparation suggestions and marketing plans based on sales data from different business districts and product categories, helping them reduce inventory pressure and improve order processing efficiency.

Merchants with high ratings and good service will receive preferential traffic allocation, allowing them to gain more exposure.

Everything, for preservation!

the other side.

Just as Chen Yansen finished breakfast, Huang Boxiang drove his Hongqi L5 to the door of villa number 116.

Song Yuncheng then drove back to Lujiang alone.

After greeting him, Lao Huang busied himself helping Chen Yansen move his luggage. Besides his clothes, there were also some gifts, some for Lao Chen, and some for Wang Zhanjun and Wen Shumei.

At 9:00 AM sharp, Chen Yansen got into the car and set off on time.

I didn't go back to Chunshen last year, but I'll definitely go back this year to see my mother and also visit Lao Chen.

Huang Boxiang wore a smile the whole way, clearly in a very good mood.

During the past six months of driving for Chen Yansen, he has broadened his horizons, met many big shots from all walks of life, ridden in private jets, and even visited the United States.

In less than ten months, he saved up 150,000 yuan.

Although Chen Yansen offered him a monthly salary of 12,000 yuan, it included room and board, plus housing subsidies, transportation subsidies, quarterly bonuses, travel funds, and other benefits, averaging at least 20,000 yuan per month.

Moreover, following the boss around means you hardly have any opportunities to spend money.

Chen Yansen glanced at Lao Huang, smiled slightly, took out his phone, opened Mimo, and started scrolling through short videos.

……

……

At 3:30 p.m., the car exited the highway and soon passed through Tongfei Gate, heading towards the Guobin Bookstore on Beida Street.

However, when Chen Yansen arrived, the bookstore was closed.

He picked up the phone and dialed.

"Tap...tap...tap..."

As soon as the call connected, before Chen Guobin could speak, Chen Yansen asked, "Where are you?"

"You're back in Chunshen? I'm at your Uncle Wang's house."

Old Chen said.
