Great Power Reclamation

Chapter 2085 Trouble of the big family

Kelly gave birth to a boy. Americans do not have the term confinement. After giving birth, she went to work.

Helen trained her as a successor, so she has been slowly taking over the company's affairs.

It has been more than a year in the blink of an eye, and Helen has started to let go of many things, giving Kelly more autonomy.

However, voices of opposition from the family gradually increased.The main reason is that Helen holds too many shares. Once she completely lets go, these shares will definitely be transferred to Kelly.

Naturally, the men in the family would not be reconciled. At this time, they formed gangs one after another, trying to create some trouble for Kaili.

Naturally, these circumstances created some stress for Kelly.Not only is she responsible for the company's operations, but she also has to face various internal pressures all the time.

But at this time, Helen chose to let go. She wanted to see what her granddaughter's real ability was?
After all, the big family has never been peaceful. Outsiders only see their unanimous external strength when encountering things, but they rarely understand their various internal struggles and strife.

The main reason is that the family ugliness should not be publicized. They have done a good job.Occasionally there are a few alternatives, and they will soon be abandoned by the family. No one will believe the inside story they have exposed.

At present, Kelly's most favorable opponent is the Big Boberg family.Although the uncle is over 50 years old, he is in the prime of life.

And his son Tony is a few years younger than Kelly. He is a very capable young man who graduated from Harvard Business School and is a person who wants to make a big career.

Now the uncle controls the purchase channel of Wal-Mart Supermarket. It can be said that all the people in the purchasing department belong to him.

He entered the company in his 20s and has been in the procurement department for 30 years. If he made a move, the entire Wal-Mart might be paralyzed.

This is not alarmist talk, because it is the truth.Even Kaili has some scruples about this eldest son.

According to the Chinese tradition, generally speaking, family property will be passed on to the eldest son, mainly because the elders and children are orderly. This is a habit formed by the influence of Confucianism for thousands of years.

However, Westerners have no scruples in this regard at all. They have always followed the law of the jungle, which is the law of the jungle.

Therefore, no matter what the environment is, the weak will eat the strong, even if you are facing your own relatives and friends.

But the saying that a tiger's poison does not eat its son is applicable to people everywhere.So is Helen.

Although she was very dissatisfied with the eldest son, she still didn't kick him out of the company, and the final result was to let him grow up.

The reason why I don't like the eldest son is because Berg is very selfish and vicious. As long as his interests are violated, he will definitely encounter his unscrupulous revenge.

For example, the previous general manager, Al, was originally a very capable manager.As a result, because of questioning the price of Berg's purchases, Berg joined forces with other shareholders to squeeze Al out of the company.

This incident made Helen very angry, but there was nothing she could do.Although she is the chairman, the company's board of directors has the final say after all, and she can't use her strength to fight against the entire board of directors.

In addition, the reason why Wal-Mart has been repeatedly defeated in the battle with Junken LIDL is also related to Berg.

After all, he has firmly grasped the purchase channels, so that the purchase price has never been able to compare with the military reclamation LIDL.

You must know that the two supermarkets are all in the low-end market, and they rely entirely on price to win.However, the price of Army Reclamation LIDL is obviously lower than that of Wal-Mart. How can it compete?
At any rate, there are very few large-scale supermarkets in the convenience store route that Junken LIDL is taking. Otherwise, it is really hard to say where Wal-Mart is now.

Even so, Berg still firmly grasped his own channels and did not allow replacements. This behavior has actually reached the point of insanity.

The reason why Helen was planning to retire was actually related to her eldest son. Although she was known for her iron fist in the business world, she was still a mother after all, especially she couldn't do anything to her first son.

The reason why she chose her granddaughter to take over is because although Kaili was a little rebellious since she was a child, she is very smart and bold.

As for the other sons, their intelligence quotients are not enough. If any one of them is allowed to take over, they will definitely be manipulated by the elder brother. It is better to pass the position directly to Berg.

Helen considered for a long time before deciding to pass on the position to Kelly, who was the only existence in the entire family capable of fighting Berg.

Didn't he know that it was Helen's decision that made Berg even more dissatisfied with his mother. He was ready to go to war with his mother and drive his niece from the board of directors forever.

After driving away the previous manager, many people were finally convinced by Berg's despotic power and became his echoers.

The current shareholding structure of the company is that Helen accounts for 30%, each of the four sons takes 10%, one daughter 5%, and the other 25% is employee shares.

In Kaili's generation, they only have a symbolic 1% share, and this share is still in the name of their father, and they can only get it after his death.

This is also the measure taken by the Wharton family to ensure that the equity will not be lost.It is only after the person dies that he can be inherited by his children.

Of course, based on the current assets of the Wharton family, even 1% is in billions. Who makes them belong to the top families in the United States?
Helen didn't tell Kelly about Berg's situation.She just wanted to see her granddaughter's observation and practical ability.

So she doesn't plan to intervene in the next battle between Berg and Kelly.If Kelly really loses, that's God's will.

Then the future Wharton family can only be controlled by Berg, and he will lead them to heaven or hell.

In fact, Kelly found out about Berg's problems shortly after joining the company, but she didn't seem to care, and didn't take the initiative to ask her grandma about these things.

Helen was faintly disappointed, and felt a sense of dejection about her granddaughter's retreat. She thought her granddaughter was afraid. Could it be that the Wharton family was really about to fall?
Walking into the office, Kelly looked around and was very satisfied.She likes to be clean, especially at work, but at home, she's a pig.

There was a bunch of tulips in a vase on her table. She had always liked this kind of flower very much, so slender branches raised so big flowers, and there was only one.

She has always compared tulips to women, with powerful strength in their slender bodies, allowing life to bloom most beautifully in this world.

Seeing her coming in, the secretary hurried to make a cup of tea.Unlike everyone in the company, the common office drink here is coffee.

And Kaili likes to drink jasmine tea, which is of course a habit she developed after getting to know Ye Yuze.She really didn't know there was such a tea before.

A fully bloomed yellow flower in the orange tea water exudes a faint aroma. This tea not only tastes good, but also has a better visual effect.Makes the whole body and mind happy.

Turn on the computer and browse the operation of the entire company.Today's Wharton family business is undoubtedly an aircraft carrier, involved in many industries in the United States and around the world.

Although most of them belong to investment, as long as the investment is definitely a share.

Moreover, the Wharton family has a characteristic, that is, as long as they invest, they must occupy a part of the right to speak.I will never take out the money and let others influence it, and I only get dividends.

This situation also makes the family business into a group company, and then set up many branch companies.

Correspond with each investment company separately, pay close attention to all the trends, and if there is any trouble, you can immediately participate in it to avoid losses.

Helen is the chairman of the board of directors of this group company, and Kelly is currently only the general manager of Wal-Mart, and has no right to speak on the board of directors.

Berg, on the other hand, participated in the operation of Wal-Mart as a director of the group company and had no actual position.

As for the other branches, Helen resolutely does not allow any family members to participate in the operation and hires professional managers.

She also did this to leave a way out for the family, but if Berg came to power in the end, she would not dare to guarantee anything, after all, the power of a chairman of the board of directors is huge.

If you want to do something in this position, generally speaking, you can achieve it, although you will encounter some resistance, but at most it will be a little delay.

In fact, if she wanted to expel Berg from the board of directors now, it was not impossible, but she couldn't do it. She didn't want to make mother and son feud at this age.

After taking a sip of tea, Kelly asked, "Have you contacted all the supply companies in China?"

The secretary nodded: "I have contacted them all, but they all said that the price has reached the lowest level and there is no way to lower it."

Kelly snorted: "Then why is Junken Lidl's purchase price lower than theirs? Is Wal-Mart bullying us for its small size?"

The secretary raised her head and hesitated to speak. She was just an employee, and she understood many things, but she couldn't say them. After all, she didn't want to lose this job.

Kelly waved her out, picked up the phone and called Ye Yuze.Wal-Mart originally distributed the Warrior Denim series, but the negotiation broke down because of the price issue.

Today, the warrior jeans are still managed by Yu'e, but because she has been staying in China for a long time, the management of Europe and the United States has been entrusted to Ye Yuze.

Now that Ye Yuze is rich and powerful, how could he care about such a clothing company?The company in Boston is completely handed over to the manager, who rarely asks.

When Kelly asked him why Warrior Apparel terminated the contract with Wal-Mart?Ye Yuze thought for a long time before he had some vague impressions, but he couldn't remember the specific reason.

He quickly called the manager of the company. At this time, the manager of the Boston company had already changed, and it was a young girl named Jennifer.

In fact, the business of this company has gradually shrunk. It's not that the sales of warrior jeans are not good, but that most of the business has been taken away by the military reclamation LIDL.

It is only because Junken LIDL has relatively few stores in the United States that the company exists, otherwise it would have been completely handed over to Junken LIDL.

Jennifer reported the situation to Ye Yuze in detail, and it turned out that the reason for the termination of the contract was the double price issue.

It was a denim jacket that was originally $35, but Wal-Mart mentioned $40.Originally, this is something that is beneficial to warrior clothing.

But they asked Warrior Clothing to provide a yin and yang contract, which means that the actual price is still 35, and the extra five dollars cannot be transferred to Wal-Mart's corporate account, but transferred to a private account, or simply settled in cash.

This kind of thing is actually illegal and involves tax evasion. Once it is found out, Jennifer, the actual person in charge, will definitely bear legal responsibility.

Therefore, after reporting to Ye Yuze, the contract expired and the cooperation with Wal-Mart was terminated voluntarily.

After Ye Yuze told Kelly about the situation, he asked worriedly:
"Why do you ask about this? Do you want to cooperate with Warrior Clothing again? No need, our clothes are old brands, and we never worry about sales."

Because of having a child, the relationship between the two of them has directly changed from a honeymoon period to an old couple, and their words are not so polite.

Kelly asked angrily: "Why, you can give Lidl to Junkeng, Martha and Erhong, but you won't cooperate with me?"

Ye Yuze quickly explained: "My dear, don't get me wrong, haven't you just taken office? I'm not short of this money, and your purchase channels have always been relatively stable, so don't cause any unpleasantness."

In fact, Ye Yuze is really doing it for her own good. No matter how strict the audit is, the company will inevitably have some tricks in terms of supply.

The so-called market economy is run by people. People have selfishness and greed, and they are tacitly allowed to do small tricks as long as they do not affect the company's operations.

Unexpectedly, this sentence caused trouble on her own, and Kaili became anxious all of a sudden:
"Ye Yuze, what do you mean? Your goods can be given to Martha and Erhong, but not to me, right? I also gave birth to a son for you, why should they be better than me?"

Ye Yuze reluctantly kept the phone away from his ears. He never understood one thing, that is, no matter how gentle a woman is, why are she so irritable after the relationship is established?
At present, the only one who can remain gentle to him is Lili. Even his wife Yu'e, who has such a soft personality, has learned to stare. How difficult it is for a man!
"Give it, you must give it, as long as you need it, I'll make it up for you as much as you want!"

Ye Yuze quickly expressed his attitude clearly. He has encountered many such situations, and he already has a proficient coping plan.

That's the time, you have to agree unconditionally to what she said.As for whether it can be done in the future, that is a matter for the future.Because what women want at this time is your attitude, not commitment.

Just like when a man is bragging, he needs someone to flatter him, otherwise there is no sense of accomplishment?

Sure enough, Kaili calmed down instantly, and asked softly, "Are you really willing to do this for me?"

Ye Yuze's attitude was firm: "It must be done. My son is born. I don't care about such trivial matters. Am I still a man?"

"Okay, since you're such a man, help me find out about Wal-Mart's suppliers in China's clothing industry. Currently, Wal-Mart has a lot of internal problems, and I need help."

In a blink of an eye, the vacation was gone, and the days of moving bricks began again.Come on, brothers, save money to marry a wife and find a lover.
