Rebirth: Starting from a Trainee Teacher

Chapter 725 New Appointment of Gu Jia

In the morning, Zhou Jing and Gu Jia sent the child to his parents-in-law's house. After lunch, they went to the company.

First go to the Ideal Technology office building. It is Gu Jia’s first time to go to the Ideal Technology office building. When she is almost at the destination, she can see a high-rise building of more than 20 floors in front of her with the four big characters of Ideal Technology hanging on the building. Gu Jia feels proud. Although the Ideal Technology office building is not very tall, it does not affect its status as a Fortune 500 company.

"Tangdu now has three office buildings, Shengtang Technology has four buildings, and we plan to acquire a piece of land in the northern suburbs to build a real estate next year."

Zhou Jing said while looking at the office building in front of him.

"You are the one who built this kingdom. How much GDP can it provide for Tangdu this year?"

Gu Jia said with a smile.

"More than 10 percent."

The tax revenue provided by Ideal Technology, owned by Zhou Jing, to Tangdu is far ahead of the second place. Ideal Technology ranks higher than Tangdu Coal Industry in the Fortune Global 500 and is undoubtedly the largest enterprise in Tangdu. It has brought thousands of high-quality jobs to Tangdu. Tangdu has shown great support for Ideal Technology. As long as Zhou Jing's requests are not too outrageous, the local government will meet them. If Zhou Jing has any questions in Tangdu, he can contact Secretary ** directly without going through a secretary.

“How many people are working in the office building?”

King Gu Jia said as he got closer to the office building.

"Less than two thousand."

Zhou Jing drove Gu Jia's Audi A8. This car had not been registered in the office building. Bai Xiyao had arrived at the company in advance and informed the security department. The guard saw the license plate number and let him pass immediately and guided him to find a parking space.

"Boss, please get out of the car."

After parking the car, Gu Jia got out first, walked around the front of the car, opened the door for Zhou Jing and said with a smile.

Zhou Jing grabbed Gu Jia's leg and got out of the car and said, "Be my personal secretary next year."

"Okay!"

Gu Jia thought that it would be better if she was a few years younger, so that she could concentrate on being Zhou Jing's secretary without the burden of children.

After closing the car door, Zhou Jing and Gu Jia walked side by side to the office building.

"Is that our boss lady next to Mr. Zhou?"

"It seems to be Mr. Gu."

“The boss lady is so beautiful, I wonder how Mr. Gu got our domineering CEO.”

"Mr. Zhou, Mr. Gu, good afternoon."

The first time Zhou Jing and Gu Jia appeared at the Ideal Technology office at the same time, they attracted the attention of everyone entering and leaving the office, especially the appearance of Gu Jia. To most people at Ideal Technology, Gu Jia, the proprietress, was a mysterious existence, and they had only heard of her name but never seen her.

Although Gu Jia is not on the employee list of Ideal Technology, she is part of the core management group of Ideal Technology. For many matters of Ideal Technology, the senior executives do not report directly to Zhou Jing, but convey them through Gu Jia.

"good afternoon."

Zhou Jing and Gu Jia nodded.

"Mr. Zhou and Mr. Gu first."

At the elevator entrance, the people in line in front give way.

"You guys go ahead and do your work, we'll wait for the next one."

Zhou Jing would not compete with his company's employees for the elevator. When there were many people, he would follow the first-come-first-served principle. During the lunch break, there were many people coming in and out, and once the elevator was overloaded, Zhou Jing and Gu Jia would let the people in front go first.

"Mr. Zhou is really nice to his employees."

"I heard that Mr. Zhou and Mr. Gu have a child. Mr. Gu is such an enviable winner in life."

"Boss Zhou and Boss Gu's children are even more enviable. I wonder what it feels like to be born in a wealthy family."

"Mr. Gu also has an unusual background. His father was the former Party Secretary of Yu City and is now a member of the provincial standing committee."

"Gu Shujie?"

"Correct."

"No wonder, there is indeed a successful woman behind every successful man."

"To be as successful as Mr. Zhou, the most important thing is to be good enough. Before Mr. Zhou started his own business, he made tens of millions of yuan by writing online novels. Zhou Jing is very talented."

"."

The news that Zhou Jing and Gu Jia had arrived at the company spread quickly, and employees discussed it privately.

Zhou Jing took Gu Jia upstairs to the office. Bai Xiyao had someone clean the office. Bai Xiyao put the important information on the desk.

“Are there any other big companies around here?”

Gu Jia stood in front of the window and looked at the buildings outside.

"Compared to Ideal Technology, they are all small companies. The building across the street is a non-ferrous metal company, and there is a Wanda Plaza over there."

Zhou Jing put his left arm around Gu Jia's waist and pointed outside the building with his right hand while speaking.

"I want to go to Yu City to visit our shopping malls and amusement parks."

Gu Jia has always wanted to go back to Yu City, but she has no chance year after year. She has not been back since she left Yu City in 2010. In a blink of an eye, more than three years have passed. The amusement park, shopping mall and food street invested by Zhou Jing in Yu City have all been put into use, and Gu Jia wants to go back even more.

"I'll go back next year when the weather gets warmer. The amusement park will be closed during the winter."

Zhou Jing also wanted to go back to Yulin City to check out his own business.

"Then let's set it for May."

Gu Jia said that she will be very busy with the release of the second generation of Changxiang in April next year, and she will have time to go back in May or June. If she does not go back next year, her second baby's belly will be so big that she will not have time to go back in the next two or three years.

“I will definitely go back next May.”

Zhou Jing pinched Gu Jia's belly and said.

"It's a word."

Gu Jia had never looked forward to returning to Yu City as much as she did now. Yu City had too many memories for her.

After looking outside the window for a while, Gu Jia sat down on the chair in front of Zhou Jing's desk, leaning back and enjoying the feeling of being the boss of a Fortune 500 company.

Zhou Jing sat on his desk and picked up a document. It was detailed information about the acquisition of Ruihua Semiconductor. The document detailed the technical data, personnel information, financial debt situation, and acquisition matters of Ruihua Semiconductor Equipment Co., Ltd. Zhou Jing was going to take this document back to BJ to give to Wang Tao as it was needed for the company's restructuring.

“Is the technology of this company valuable?”

Gu Jia said as he looked at the obscure drawings and formulas in the materials.

"Very big. They have done a more thorough research on basic technologies. What we lack is the underlying technology."

Zhou Jing decided to acquire Ruihua Semiconductor because of its deep basic research in semiconductor equipment. Otherwise, he would not have spent billions to acquire it. With Ruihua Semiconductor's basic research, Taiwei Semiconductor's lithography machine R&D department can test and correct the developed technology as quickly as possible, thereby improving research efficiency.

The research efficiency of Taiwei Semiconductor's R&D department is already high, and with Zhou Jing spending a lot of money to provide the team with underlying technical support, the research efficiency will undoubtedly be even higher.

Gu Jia opened her mobile Weibo account and saw a post about the ranking of mobile phone running scores. She said, "The first generation of Ideal was criticized for its poor configuration and high price because of its low running score. Now that the second generation of Ideal has a higher running score, no one is mentioning the running score anymore."

"Benchmarking software was originally created by other mobile phone manufacturers for marketing purposes. What does it mean that the benchmarking scores of domestic mobile phones are generally higher than those of Apple?"

In Zhou Jing's opinion, running scores are a joke. If Ideal Mobile Phones focus on running scores, it will kill the running score software. Last year and in the first three quarters of this year, competitors hyped up the high running scores. After the release of Ideal II, the running scores tested by digital bloggers were higher than those of competitors' phones that had previously hyped up the running scores. So competitors suddenly stopped mentioning running scores. "Sometimes I have to admire their marketing routines. They always come up with unique ideas."

Gu Jia said with a smile.

“Marketing is also a skill.”

Although Zhou Jing does not like marketing, he does not deny the value of marketing. Marketing is not only a professional and business need, but also an essential part of personal social life. For example, when looking for a boyfriend or girlfriend or going on blind dates, one needs to show one's good side and leave a good impression on others. It can be said that marketing is indispensable everywhere, and Zhou Jing hates false marketing.

Fang Ming, vice chairman of Ideal Technology and president of the marketing department, was in the office building. Zhou Jing asked Fang Ming and Bai Xiyao to go to the lounge to discuss work. Zhou Jing took Gu Jia to the lounge with him.

"Mr. Zhou, Mr. Gu."

Bai Xiyao and Fang Ming arrived at the lounge first. When they saw Zhou Jing and Gu Jia coming in, they stood up.

"My wife."

When Fang Ming and Gu Jia met for the first time, Zhou Jing introduced that before, Gu Jia and Fang Ming communicated through the company's internal work account.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Gu."

Fang Ming and Gu Jia shook hands.

"You are welcome."

Gu Jia smiled and nodded.

After greeting each other, the four of them sat down to talk about work. The first thing Zhou Jing talked about was the adjustment of the senior management of Ideal Technology.

Currently, Zhou Jing is the chairman and CEO of Ideal Technology, Bai Xiyao is the vice chairman and executive chairman, Fang Ming is the vice chairman and president of the marketing department. In addition, there are Xu Jun, executive director and president of the production department, Zhang Ming, executive director and president of the supply chain, Liang Jian, president of international affairs, Zhang Yonghua, director of the R&D department, and so on.

Zhou Jing informed Bai Xiyao and Fang Ming that a new vice chairman position would be added, which would be Gu Jia, who would also serve as CFO. Bai Xiyao and Fang Ming naturally had no objection and expressed that they would fully cooperate with Gu Jia's work.

"Also, recommend a president to Sheng Tang Semiconductor. Send me the information of the suitable candidate. Don't tell them to choose the president of Sheng Tang Semiconductor yet. We can decide after the new year."

The second thing is still about personnel. Tangdu Shengtang Semiconductor Design Technology Co., Ltd. has been established. Next spring, Shengtang Research Institute will move in and form an independent company. The establishment of a new company requires a series of personnel adjustments, and the company's main management Zhou Jing will personally oversee it.

"it is good."

Fang Ming nodded and said.

"Does the management of each department of Sheng Tang want people from each department to participate in the election?"

Bai Xiyao and Fang Ming nodded.

"Yes, we can start the selection during this period."

Zhou Jing agreed. Of course, promotion opportunities are limited to people in his own company. Promoting opportunities should be given to old employees of his own company. People in Ideal Technology are familiar with Zhou Jing's management philosophy, which is beneficial to the construction of the corporate culture of the new company.

Bai Xiyao said: "Then I will send the documents to the company next week."

"That's it. Brother Fang, does the Marketing Department have any questions for next year's work?"

Zhou Jing looked at Fang Ming and said.

"No problem. The marketing department has already started leasing stores in all counties across the country. We plan to complete the renovation by the second quarter of next year, recruit and train store employees in April, put the stores into use by June, and further improve offline marketing."

Fang Ming was born into a science and engineering family and was not originally good at market and marketing work. However, after more than a year of training, he has become competent for this job.

Zhou Jing nodded to show his agreement with Fang Ming's arrangement.

After discussing the main work, Zhou Jing asked Bai Xiyao to arrange a meeting in the conference room for the main management of the Public Administration Department, Human Resources Department, Finance Department and other departments. There was nothing to do in the meeting, just to let the management get to know Gu Jia.

Zhou Jing brought Gu Jia to make his first official appearance at the Ideal Technology Conference. The management was full of curiosity about Gu Jia and was very serious at the meeting. After Zhou Jing announced Gu Jia's appointment, everyone stood up and applauded.

"Thank you everyone, I hope we can have fun working together in the future."

Gu Jia said a few simple words.

After the meeting, Zhou Jing and Gu Jia went to the Ideal Technology Factory, and Bai Xiyao went with them.

Zhou Jing and Gu Jia drove a car, and Bai Xiyao drove her own car. They arrived at the factory at the same time. Bai Xiyao walked in front and asked the security guard at the gate to let Zhou Jing and Gu Jia's car pass.

"The factory area is still more comfortable. After the R&D base is built, the office building over there won't be needed, right?"

Maybe because she had worked in an office building for too long, Gu Jia felt aversion to high-rise office buildings. Although the Ideal Technology factory was in a remote area, the living facilities inside the factory were complete, and the tallest building in the factory, the comprehensive office building, was only 15 or 16 stories high, which did not give people a sense of oppression.

"Yes, we will keep it as an online business office when the time comes."

The Tangdu R&D base under construction by Ideal Technology is a park that can accommodate thousands of people to work and live.

"Anything to arrange?"

Bai Xiyao parked the car and got out and said.

"Go to the production department."

Zhou Jing planned to let Gu Jia have a comprehensive understanding of Ideal Technology, but Gu Jia had not yet visited the factory workshop.

Bai Xiyao led the way and the three of them came to the production department and went to the preparation room.

The company's workshop is a dust-free workshop. In order to avoid interference of electronic equipment on the equipment in the workshop, mobile phones and other electronic devices are not allowed before entering the workshop. Zhou Jing and Gu Jia put their things in a cabinet. After dusting off their bodies, they changed into work clothes, put on shoe covers, put on masks, etc. before stepping into the workshop.

“So modern.”

The first thing Gu Jia felt when entering the workshop was modernity. The modern equipment and production lines gave people a very rigorous feeling.

"Each workshop costs more than 30 million."

Zhou Jing introduced the tasks of each part of the production line to Gu Jia as they walked.

“Is this production line producing Ideal 2 or Ideal 2s?”

Gu Jia said as she looked at the mobile phones being assembled step by step on the production line.

"2s." Bai Xiyao said: "Our factory mainly produces Ideal 2s and Bluetooth headsets. Ideal 2 is manufactured by other electronics factories."

Gu Jia listened and nodded, trying to understand everything about Ideal Technology.

After visiting the workshop, we went to the R&D department. Ideal Technology’s R&D department has more than ten branches, including smartphone R&D department, Bluetooth headset R&D department, smart home R&D department, etc. Each branch has several project groups. For example, the smartphone R&D department has a screen R&D group, a battery R&D group, an imaging R&D group, etc. Some communication technologies have been transferred to Zhirui Communication.

Bai Xiyao notified Zhang Yonghua, director of the R&D department, and asked Zhang Yonghua to take Zhou Jing and Gu Jia to visit the R&D department.

After fully understanding Ideal Technology, Gu Jia intuitively felt the profound technological strength of Ideal Technology and also felt the difficulties Zhou Jing had gone through. In more than three years, he created a technology company that is one of the best in the country and has the best artificial intelligence capabilities in the world. This is even more impressive than when Steve Jobs founded Apple.

“Being the ideal vice chairman and CFO is a bit stressful.”

After visiting the main departments of the factory, Gu Jia returned to the office and said.

Gu Jia realized that the financial knowledge and work experience she had learned by herself were sufficient for Chuangzhi Technology, but were completely insufficient for Ideal Technology. She needed to pursue further studies, but she didn't have the time.

"It's not complicated. I'll support you."

Zhou Jing hopes that Gu Jia can train well and improve her ability to handle ideal scientific and technological affairs independently. However, the child is still young and Gu Jia must focus on the family. Zhou Jing will not put too much pressure on her.
