Chapter 407: Strangulation 4
Friends who have become billionaires know that when your business reaches a certain scale, management is bound to be out of control.

Bosses who require you to do everything yourself are not dedicated, but they have no money.

How to manage out-of-control situations is a problem that only big capitalists are qualified to face.

Large enterprises have complex business operations and their internal systems are relatively mature. The number of employees often starts at a few hundred and can easily reach tens of thousands.

The helmsman of such an enterprise cannot do everything by himself, so they need to build a management system and find reliable people to take charge of all aspects of the business.

What Achilles lacks most is time. He is always recruiting people, but it is still not enough and not effective.

However, this does not mean that all his subordinates are fools. For managers of successful companies or entrepreneurs, recruiting people is a matter of many practical needs, and it can even be said to be a necessary measure.

The solidified interests of different factions within the company need to be broken by personnel mobility in the management level. Projects and business units with poor financial statements and data need new changes. Pioneering projects require more competitive and mature talents.

In short, large companies are always recruiting people and trying to make themselves more efficient. This effort is eternal, but the specific results are still controversial.

Before Nokia went bankrupt, they also worked very hard; before Kodak reached a dead end, it was also a benchmark for global companies.

Here, a new key factor needs to be introduced - the ability of the leader.

Those big guys who have been a generation of entrepreneurs can easily understand this concept. As the founders of a company, they have discovered all the capable people in the company, so naturally they can do whatever they want.

Once a generation of entrepreneurs retires, the company most of the time needs to find a successor, and that’s when problems arise.

Family-inherited businesses are prone to internal strife, internal strife within the family, internal strife between ambitious "powerful officials" and the young master, internal strife between other shareholders who were once kind and benevolent and the founder's family.
In order to resolve internal strife, professional managers become a good choice.

But professional managers do not have shares in the company, so no matter how well they do their job, they will always get a salary.

Thus, the option reward model for professional management emerged.

This is roughly the development trajectory of the management model of modern commercial companies, but for those forces that want to achieve great things, the situation is different.

It is not an institution with a legal entity, but an alliance of interests that exists based on the uniqueness of its founder Cheng Daqi.

For those who don't know it, it doesn't exist, but for people like Niu Sen, it exists.

If the United States has a deep government, then Cheng Daiqi's forces have undoubtedly become part of this deep government.

Mr. Cheng’s power does not require a manager; he is the leader of his generation.

At a time when BEC is facing pressure from investigation, President Cheng chose to stay in Hong Kong and not return to the United States. This cold treatment actually tests the cohesion of his power.

For example, why did ancient emperors not like to lead their troops to war in person?
Don't they want to?

No, it can’t.

Anyone who knows a little about history will find something very interesting: the founders of dynasties and empires were never afraid to lead the army in person, but their descendants and successors did not dare to do so.

As the founder of his business empire, Cheng Daiqi dared to stay in Hong Kong and wait for the situation in the United States to develop.

This is not because of self-confidence, but because of strength!
-
Gwill doesn't like Washington very much because there are too many bigwigs here.

When the princes of local tyrants come to the capital, they are sometimes even worse than dogs. This gap in reality is often not because those dogs do not recognize the strength of Niu Sen or the California Gang.

It's simply because our power is not compatible.

You are California Mu's younger brother, and I am ** Mu's brother-in-law. No one needs to give face to each other.

So, Gwill didn't waste too much time on socializing and soon met Yusuf, a Californian who served as deputy director of NTIA.

The two met at Yusuf's home, and the second-generation Californian immigrant welcomed the California pastor's younger brother.

"Mr. Gwill, I didn't expect you to be interested in NTIA's affairs. Are you in any trouble?"

The monetization of power in the United States is an unspoken rule that is clear to everyone. Yusuf was not polite at all and made it clear from the start that he was willing to cooperate.

Yusuf: I want to improve so much!

Commissioner Gwell, if you need anything, please let me know!
“Well, my brother told me about you, Mr. Yusuf, you are a prominent figure in the field of electronic communications in our California.

I came to Washington this time to meet my aunt. You know, Ms. Nancy is too busy and doesn't have much time to go back to California. "

Gwill first made clear his resources and strengths, and when he saw that Director Yusuf of NTIA had a good attitude, he felt slightly relieved.

Sure enough, taking the middle-level approach is operationally feasible.

"Yes, Madam Speaker has worked so hard for this country. I grew up in California and received a lot of help from her. I was even able to become the director thanks to her policies."

Ms. Nancy has been active in American politics for decades and has done a lot for California. Yusuf's words may be true or false, but the core meaning is very clear.

If the organization needs me, I am willing to sacrifice my life!
The California gang is very popular in the United States. As the strongest state in the United States with the number one economy, people like Niu Sen and Nancy are considered to be some of the biggest political gangs.

For Youssef, as the deputy director of NTIA with a technical background, he reached this position by driving the development of the American Internet industry, but he has also reached his ceiling.

He wanted to reach a higher position, but it was impossible to do so by hard work alone.

"Haha, Mr. Yusuf, you can work in Washington, and you can visit my aunt more often when you have time."

Gwill first made some empty promises, hinting at his intention to confer an official title and then stated his own request.

"I wonder what you think about the President's investigation into BEC?"

What do you think?
What can Yusuf think?
This is not a problem, but a clear demand for interests!
BEC is a project in which the California governor personally participates in the ICO, and the person who is responsible for this project is required to be the commander-in-chief!
Niu Sen is the governor of California, and Gwill is the governor's younger brother. However, he came to meet the deputy director of NTIA, who is in charge of investigating BEC. Deputy Director Yusuf is also a Californian.

Anyone with a little political sensitivity can realize what Gwell is talking about.

"Cryptocurrency is a new thing. We have been paying attention to this blockchain technology since a few years ago. Mr. Gwell, the combination of the most cutting-edge technology and the most secretive capital can easily lead to problems.

Since..., the number of thunderstorms has been countless. The President's investigation into BEC seems to be only targeting BEC, but in fact it is conveying his own attitude towards cryptocurrency. "

As a bureaucrat who started out as a technician, Yusuf's ideas seem very down-to-earth. He broke down the problem from the perspectives of technology and capital and gave his own answers.

But this is not what Gwill wants to hear.

"what do you mean?"

Not loyal enough!

"I mean, Mr. Gwill, the commander-in-chief's actions are not simple, we have to consider the whole situation."

Director Yusuf said, I can do the job, but you have to show me how seriously you take this matter.

He is not an unknown little person. He can stand in line and pay homage, but he must make sure that he will not be abandoned.

If you Californians are counting on me to help you avoid the President's investigation, then you have to show me your sincerity in not cheating me.

Taking sides is a two-way process.

As a senior broker, Gwill understood what Yusuf meant.

"This matter cannot be made into a big deal, do you understand?
And if anything goes wrong, you can actually go back to California.

Washington is the center of power in the United States, but there are too many people in this center.

California is a great place, isn’t it? "

Add chips!
The California Gang is the strongest local political group in the United States that can take on the president, so it is easy to arrange a position for Yusuf. Considering the small amount of money that the state shepherd was trapped with, Gwell's promise was a huge investment.

"California. What can I do when I go back?"

Yusuf stopped pretending, if things didn't go well and he became the cost, then he needed compensation.

"You may not necessarily go back. If you go back, it can be just temporarily. You can be given a position in Congress, in the California State Assembly, or in the state.

Mr. Yusuf, it's just a minor inconvenience, a minor inconvenience, you understand?"

The deputy director was silent for a moment and finally nodded.

"The special investigation team is in Saint-Lodu right now. I'll be there soon. Just wait for my news!"

Gwill asked in surprise.

"Are they still in Saint-Lodu?"

"Yes what's the matter?"

Gwell, with a gloomy face, couldn't tell Yusuf that California is California and San Lo is San Lo. Such words would spoil the mood.
"nothing."

What Gwill was thinking was whether Temir, Wolfe and others had joined forces with the commander-in-chief to do something big together.

If so, that would be terrible.
-
Does Cheng Daiqi want to join forces with the commander-in-chief?
Whether he wanted to or not, in his power, old Crusoe was the commander-in-chief's 'good friend', and Temir had clearly stated that it was time for them to collude with the commander-in-chief.

In fact, Cheng Daiqi doesn't have much motivation in this regard, which can be seen from his attitude towards his first son-in-law.

To put it bluntly, the commander-in-chief is very popular now, and General Cheng is unwilling to take advantage of the popularity at a high cost.

It will be interesting to rehash old ideas in the future. Two years later, the president will no longer be the president, but his MAGA faction will still be there. That will be a good time.

But Mr. Cheng’s ideas are Mr. Cheng’s ideas, and Mr. Cheng’s subordinates have their own ideas.

People like Gru cannot fuel the fire of the President of the United States, but he himself is a gang leader, and the leader of the largest white and black gang in America. The slightest move by him can lead to bloodshed.

While Cheng Daiqi and Temir were still unaware, Jax's people had already begun to pledge their loyalty.

When Gwill heard that the NTIA investigation team was still in San Lodo, ​​he immediately panicked. Why?
Because Sanluo is the territory of Mr. Cheng and his gang!
To Gwell, the plot seemed to have a scripted absurdity.

They designed the BEC plate, lured me into leveraging, then controlled the market to get my money, and finally teamed up with the Commander-in-Chief to force my brother to do Star Fury.

You are so cruel!

In fact, President Cheng doesn’t even need to say a word, his subordinates can write the script.

"power cut?"

"Why did it suddenly get dark?"

"Damn it, stop making noise, go check the switch and contact the property management."

It was a quiet night, and the NTIA San Lodo branch was completely dark.

Let me tell you a little criminal knowledge: darkness is not only a shield for criminals, it can also be a shield for the police. In many cases, police operations will be carried out at night.

There are many of Gru's people in the core team of the LAPD, and the training they receive within the police system is professional.

Normally, this kind of state power only serves the state, but the system problems of the United States determine that this kind of public power can easily become a private thing - the piles of political and legal families are examples. (I am not writing this because there is a second-generation lawyer in the group today, America is really like this)
Especially when the LAPD's budget growth has not kept pace with the crime rate in St. Lo.

"You have seen the drawings inside. Our purpose is very simple. We will not do anything dangerous. We just want to have a few words with the two people who are under control. That's all."

A leader who was chewing gum was instructing his men.

"Captain, what if we get stopped?"

The team leader rolled his eyes and said with a little dissatisfaction.

"Knock him out, don't hurt him. We can't make a big deal out of this, but we have to control the impact. It's like wanting to shoot but not being able to. It's difficult."

There are some smart guys in tonight's team. Most of the Americans who can become US police officers have their intelligence not seriously affected by lead and sugar.

"It's just that this is NTIA. The boss is no longer the chief of the LAPD. Isn't it too risky for us to do this?"

Although NTIA is not well-known, it is an institution directly under the management of the President in the American administrative system. If you convert it, it is probably a second-rank government office.

In this system, the chief of police of LAPD is probably at most a third-grade rank. Of course, this rank has nothing to do with strength. Among the Jiedushi in the late Tang Dynasty, there were many who held low positions but had great power.

Well, I dare not think about it too much. If I think about it too much, President Cheng’s position in the Great Beauty Dynasty has already reached the level of an iron-hat king.

It sounds nonsense, but after the interests are connected, Cheng Daiqi's influence increases exponentially.

Many people misunderstand a logic, which is to regard the power content as something that grows linearly, but too many things in the world grow exponentially.

There are only so many core resources and a few sources of power. Cheng Daiqi has a knife under his command (Gru), someone above him (the group's status in the Elephant Party), and influence locally (Saint-Lo is potentially the number one). If he still cannot become an iron-hat king, then America is doomed.

“The boss is no longer the sheriff, but we are still his men. If there is work to do, we have to do it, and we have to do it beautifully!

NTIA is a department directly under Washington, and these people from Washington are certainly qualified to interfere in the affairs of Saint-Loup.

But think about it, he's pointing fingers at this today, and that tomorrow, and what if he points fingers at the LAPD the day after tomorrow?
Even though the boss lost his position as police chief of LAPD, he can still be a senior executive in a large company. He is still willing to manage us, which shows that he is very considerate.

You may think that what we are doing tonight is dangerous, but in fact, this is our opportunity!
If I remember correctly, your grandfather is almost ninety years old this year and is in poor health. Our current insurance can cover the whole family, and it is the best commercial insurance.

The boss has always been so kind to us. If you want to run away now, forget it, just go!"

The captain said that later, he suddenly felt it was boring.

These people thought they were police officers, and they had certain things to do and not to do, and they thought what they did tonight was not right.

Ha, naive!

Which one do you deserve, your extra monthly allowance, the special insurance your family enjoys, or the support and care you provide for your children's education?

Once you take the money and enjoy the treatment, you must take responsibility.

If you regret it when the time comes, fine, then get out!

It's okay even if you report it!

If LAPD is not afraid of investigation, who dares to investigate?

"No, I didn't mean that. I..."

"Captain, that's just his personality. You know, he's a Stanford graduate and always thinks he's smarter than everyone else."

"Yes, Captain, please don't."

The captain took a piece of gum out of his mouth, stuck it into his pocket and cursed.

"Silly man, there's no time to waste. If you don't want to leave, get in first!"

"Yes! Captain!"
