Chapter 1206 1306. Luo Kai's Second Spring
Because the brokerage team is relatively independent, Luo Kai's position is actually relatively leisurely and nothing major happens.
But leisure does not mean that there is no power. In fact, the power of this position is very powerful.
As the CEO of this department, Luo Kai can directly decide which artist belongs to which agent. At the same time, Luo Kai is actually responsible for hundreds of assistants in the company.
It seems like a position that doesn't matter, but in fact, as long as it's relevant, he can manage the entire company's artists, managers, and even assistants.
As for why such an important position should be held by a mediocre person like Luo Kai, it involves company power.
For a company, especially a super group like Fanxing that has entered the world's top 500 companies, internal power competition will never stop, and it is far more complicated than Huayi Group.
Fanxing Group is like an empire, so Nie Wei is the core of the empire and the emperor of the empire, and the CEO, executive president, senior executives, etc. below are the prime minister, six ministers, other ministers, etc. of the empire.
Nie Wei wanted to rely on these 'ministers' to govern his empire, but he also wanted to limit their power from growing excessive.
The struggle between royal power and prime minister power will exist in every dynasty. Nie Wei trusted Liu Jing and originally delegated power to her to do things. This is called employing without doubt, but he also placed some of his own people in certain important positions to use Suppress Liu Jing from crossing the line, and don't let her break the rules.
If it is just nepotism, it is likely to lead to the hiding of relatives within the company, resulting in bloated company personnel and a breakdown in the system.
However, it would not be right if everyone is based on merit. One person may have his power emptied out. After all, the more capable people are, the more they have their own ideas and the greater their ambitions.
The composition of senior management within a company cannot only look at one aspect. It is necessary to make the company prosperous and to implement one's own will at all times. This is a knowledge worth studying.
Nie Wei's putting a "relative" like Luo Kai in that position was a form of power play, and Luo Kai was an extension of his power in the company.
Moreover, Luo Kai's position is very delicate. He can do nothing without flexing his muscles, which is very suitable for people like Luo Kai. If it were important departments such as the Finance Department and the Human Resources Department that paid great attention to abilities, Nie Wei would not dare to put Luo Kai in the position. If Kai let it go like this, it was really the company's joke.
Nie Wei and Luo Kai haven't met privately for a while, probably about two or three months.
When I saw Luo Kai again, this guy's appearance had undergone earth-shaking changes.
When he was Nie Wei's manager, Luo Kai basically wore sneakers and casual clothes, and his hair was always styled very short, so he didn't need to take care of it frequently.
Because when he was Nie Wei's manager, he often also worked as an assistant and needed to be busy, so he dressed like this for work convenience.
However, since he became the CEO of Fanxing Artists Department, whether in the company or in private, he always wears a suit and leather shoes, his hair has grown out, his hair is smeared with hair oil, he has an upright 37% pose, and the electronics on his wrists The watch has also been replaced by a Rolex, which is exactly the standard dress of successful people.
Nie Wei felt that Luo Kai's change was normal. If he wanted to dress like an agent to work, the company would probably gossip a lot. He should wear what kind of clothes according to his status. What Nie Wei couldn't understand. The kind of person who wears casual clothes to attend a banquet and is stopped, and still dislikes the security guard for looking down on others, is obviously asking for it.
"How is your stay in the new company?" Nie Wei asked Luo Kai to drink coffee in the cafe and chat.
"It's okay, but I feel a little uncomfortable with suddenly becoming the president." Luo Kai smiled and added: "But it feels good."
Even though Luo Kai is not a person who pays special attention to power, I believe most people will enjoy the feeling of being in a high position and being sought after by many people. Luo Kai may be a little uncomfortable at first, but after adapting, he belongs to that big group. most'.
However, he kept in mind what Nie Wei told him to do, so he did not make any big moves in the new department. Basically, he followed the rules and did what his predecessor did.
"I heard that some employees in the company privately call you Clay Sculpture President?" Nie Wei took a sip of coffee and asked with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Luo Kai's face became hot.
Naturally, he knew this title, Clay Sculpture President. Doesn't that mean that he didn't care about anything? He just looked like an idiot sitting in that position.
Of course, the Clay Bodhisattva must also be worshiped. Who would dare to disrespect the people arranged by Nie Wei? Of course, it's a different matter in private, otherwise such a nickname wouldn't have spread.
When Luo Kai thought of this nickname, he felt unhappy and a little guilty, feeling that he had betrayed Nie Wei's trust.
"I told you not to move but to be still, but now that you are in that position, don't think about being lazy. I'll say hello to Ma Dong later, and you can talk to him more." Nie Wei said.
Ma Dong is now the executive vice president of the company, and he used to be the executive president of the artist department, so Nie Wei asked Luo Kai to talk to Ma Dong. In fact, he asked Ma Dong to teach him what to do in that position. Nie Wei decided for Luo Kai The standard is not high, and there is no merit or demerit, as long as you are not fooled by the people below.
Luo Kai naturally obeyed Nie Wei's instructions, and he always followed Nie Wei's orders 100%.
"If you have time, you can also enroll in an evening university and learn management. Although you are almost fifty years old, as a man, it is not too late to start a career at this age." Nie Wei added.
Although Luo Kai is not very talented and is older, he is loyal. Nie Wei does not expect him to create brilliant achievements for the company, but he also hopes that he can become a minister who maintains the status quo. If he can do so, Nie Wei wants to move him into the board of directors.
Luo Kai naturally did not think so much, he felt that Nie Wei's encouragement and care made him feel warm.
His feelings towards Nie Wei are actually very complicated. On the one hand, Nie Wei is his boss and he respects Nie Wei, but on the other hand, his care for Nie Wei has made him treat Nie Wei as his own brother. You know, he has been with Nie Wei for more than ten years, which is much more than the time he spent with his own family, so the two have a close feeling similar to family affection.
So after talking about business, Luo Kai couldn't help but care about Nie Wei's daily life again.
"Nie Wei, you should also take care of your health. Although you are not an actor anymore, I think being a director is more tiring than being an actor, and you are also in charge of so many companies. If it doesn't work, you can find two more assistants. After all, Shu Chang is also a busy person. Sometimes she can't even take care of herself, so how can she take care of you?"
Listening to the nagging in his ears, Nie Wei couldn't help but want to laugh. He hadn't listened to it for a few months and was still very annoyed, but there was also a long-lost warmth in his annoyance.
"Okay, okay, I know." As usual, Nie Wei impatiently stopped Luo Kai, and looking at Luo Kai's helpless smile, Nie Wei also laughed out loud.
After sending Nie Wei to the car, Luo Kai suddenly followed in and closed the car door. Then he looked at Nie Wei with an embarrassed expression, as if he wanted to say something but stopped, which made Nie Wei a little confused.
"Is there anything else?" Looking at Luo Kai's look, Nie Wei knew that there was something wrong and asked him to speak quickly.
Luo Kai hesitated for a moment and finally started to speak.
Ten minutes later, Nie Wei said goodbye to Luo Kai with a face full of laughter and tears, and then called Luo Yuan.
Unlike Luo Kai, Luo Yuan is truly capable. At this moment, she has become the executive vice president of Huayi Company and one of the eleven directors of the board of directors.
When Nie Wei was promoted to executive vice president three years ago, she sold one million shares of Huayi to Luo Yuan at a price of one yuan. This was Luo Yuan's ticket to the board of directors. With these one million shares, Luo Yuan has the status of a shareholder, although only a small shareholder.
Of course, selling (giving) these shares worth tens of millions of Chinese yuan to Luo Yuan in the form of one yuan is also a compliment to her performance over the years.
Nie Wei did not meet Luo Yuan in the company, but in a nearby teahouse.
Nie Wei sat by the window on the second floor of the teahouse, ordered a pot of Guzhu Zisun, and waited for Luo Yuan to arrive. Soon a Porsche Cayenne appeared in Nie Wei's sight. This was Luo Yuan's car.
In less than three minutes, Luo Yuan, led by a waiter from the teahouse, came to the box where Nie Wei was.
"Boss Nie." Unlike Luo Kai, Luo Yuan respects Nie Wei more than being close to him. Although she worked as Nie Wei's life assistant for a period of time, she left Nie Wei to work in the company much earlier than Luo Kai.
In Luo Yuan's eyes, Nie Wei is the boss she admires, because Nie Wei is like a god of war in the business world and can do everything.
He is also a benefactor that he is grateful to. When she and her father were down and out, it was Nie Wei who personally helped them. Her position has come to where it is now. In addition to her own efforts, she knows that Nie Wei's support along the way is more important.
After all, in this society, it is almost impossible for someone like her who has no background to become the executive vice president of a large group like Huayi in her thirties and join the board of directors, but with the help of Nie Wei, she did it.
Not to mention that her child's studies were also arranged by Nie Wei, and even the housing and her own salary were funded by Nie Wei at the beginning. It can be said that Nie Wei is as kind to her as a mountain.
She is not as close to Nie Wei as her father, but she respects him more.
"How about trying this pot of Guzhu Zisun?" Nie Wei did not talk about work as soon as they met, but invited Luo Yuan to drink tea first.
Luo Yuan took the teacup, looked at the color of the tea soup, looked at the tea shape, then smelled the tea fragrance, and finally took a sip.
"The tea color is clear, the tea soup is not astringent, and the taste is slightly light. Fortunately, the sweetness is good. I rate it as top-notch." Luo Yuan commented after drinking the tea in the small cup.
Under the leadership of Nie Wei, the company dare not say that all employees, but at least more than 90% of the executives know a little about tea. After all, Huayi is the first entertainment company in the world to build a tea room in its own company. Tea culture is more important than wine culture in Huayi.
Many times, people don't even talk about things at the dinner table, but go to the teahouse to talk.
Nie Wei smiled and nodded at Luo Yuan's comments. Although it was not completely correct, it was fair. This pot of tea was indeed not of tribute grade, but only of top grade. However, it was also the best tea in this teahouse. A pot of Guzhu Zisun cost three hundred yuan.
"I will be away from Kyoto for half a year this time. Please keep an eye on Huayi for me." Nie Wei said directly while drinking tea.
With a confidant like Luo Yuan, he didn't need to talk in a roundabout way. He just gave the order directly.
Luo Yuan nodded. Even if Nie Wei didn't say it, she would be very alert. Since Huayi went public, the composition of the company has become much more complicated, and there are naturally more struggles. After all, everyone has their own job, and those who joined later are naturally unwilling to be just parasites.
Nie Wei and Wang Zhonglei joined forces to suppress them, but during the time when Nie Wei left Beijing for the South China Sea for vacation, will someone make some small moves in Kyoto?
This is very likely.
Power struggles have always been a zero-sum game. If you have more, I will have less. If you don't fight for power, where will the power come from? Including the entire entertainment industry today. Although Huayi and Fanxing have joined forces and are very powerful, there are still countless entertainment companies that are eager to challenge them. For example, when Nie Wei made a big fuss about acquiring an entertainment company before, many people interfered.
Even if the official business was explained, there was nothing to say. The two have cooperated in the company for so many years, and they still have this tacit understanding.
Of course, Nie Wei would not ask Luo Yuan out for this matter. Both of them are not idle people.
Nie Wei went to Luo Yuan mainly to talk about the matter between her and Luo Kai.
Because Luo Kai, who is nearly fifty years old, finally had his second spring. Although it came a little late, it was at least before dusk. If it was just that, it would be fine. Luo Yuan was not the kind of person who would stop Luo Kai from remarrying, but it was the age of the person Luo Kai found that made Luo Yuan a little unacceptable.
He actually found a female college student who was just over 20 years old and even had two months to reach the legal age for marriage.
You have to know that her son is sixteen years old this year. How many years older is this female college student than his son? In the old society, Luo Kai's age was enough to be the grandfather of this female college student.
How could Luo Yuan be willing to let such a girl who was ten years younger than herself become her stepmother?
Nie Wei was happy to see Luo Kai's love, but when he heard him talk about finding a college student before, he was also surprised and opened his mouth wide. He didn't expect that the usually sullen Luo Kai would be so avant-garde.
"Nie Wei, Xiao Yuan refused to agree, and even said that if I dared to marry Yingying, she would sever the father-daughter relationship with me, but Yingying and I are in love."
"Xiao Yuan usually listens to you, Nie Wei, I'll leave this matter to you."
Looking at Luo Yuan drinking tea in front of him, Nie Wei was silent for a moment, not knowing where to start. If Luo Kai was there, Nie Wei really wanted to kick him twice. It was really black-hearted to entrust such a shitty thing to him.
