Back to the Past to Become a Fishing King-Chapter 558 - 321: Birthday Gift

Chen Xiu'Er's question was a bit domineering.

Wang Yin really didn't need to take money. Even stepping back a thousand steps, even if he did take money, it wouldn't be an issue with Chen Xiu.

Given their relationship, aside from their wives, everything else is just material possessions, and they've never differentiated between each other.

Worried that Chen Xiu might need money, Wang Yin quietly prepared 100,000 yuan for his good buddy when Chen Xiu was organizing events, which was almost all of Wang Yin's available savings.

Although the money wasn't used, the bond between the brothers was unquestionable.

Wang Yin pouted, "We're doing work that makes others envious. How could it be that we wouldn't offend anyone? But it's okay, these minor frictions don't matter to me. Those who like to snitch, let them. When it comes to choosing products, I'll help you keep things in check!"

"Alright then, that's why I called you here! Our team's expanding rapidly, and it's inevitable that there will be a mix of people. We need more people to work, and these trivial matters can't be completely avoided.

So just join me in playing the part. When we've laid a solid foundation and the time is right, we'll settle accounts in the fall with those who play petty tricks and fire them to let off your steam!"

When Chen Xiu mentioned settling accounts in the fall, his eyes clearly showed a hint of aggressiveness. Although he's not yet a towering tree, Chen Xiu's charisma was beginning to show its edge.

"Haha, good!" Wang Yin grinned, their tacit understanding once again on display.

"Okay, anything else? If not, I'll get back to work! There are still a few products that haven't been finalized! The brand side is a bit difficult, not willing to lower prices, but the products are really good. I'll have to look into it more!" Wang Yin continued.

"Alright! Remember to rest, don't push yourself too hard!"

"I'm off!" Wang Yin waved, stood up, and left, returning to his place to continue working.

After Wang Yin stood up and left the office, Chen Xiu rubbed the bridge of his nose between his thumb and forefinger, closed his eyes to rest for a few seconds, and took several deep breaths.

Although it seemed Chen Xiu could handle the people beneath him, only he knew his true mindset deep inside. Given his experience and his relatively young age, his performance so far was quite commendable.

As the backbone of the team, Chen Xiu knew he couldn't show weakness. If he lost his composure, it would be even harder to lead his team.

A minute later, Chen Xiu had adjusted his state. He took out his phone and called Zhang Yang.

Zhang Yang was leisurely feeding goldfish in his small fishing gear store. Seeing Chen Xiu's call, he casually answered.

"Hello! My sociable brother Xiu, what are the instructions?" Zhang Yang said with a smile.

"Boss, don't flatter me!" Chen Xiu pouted.

"Haha, go on, what's up with the call!" Zhang Yang asked directly.

"I wanted to ask you for some advice. With so many people on our company's side and all sorts of interests intertwined, how do you lead your team?" Chen Xiu humbly inquired.

"You're calling just to ask this? What, are your subordinates starting to cause trouble?" Zhang Yang, understanding, immediately grasped Chen Xiu's situation.

"Sort of! There's a bit of a struggle on the product selection side, and people from other parts are also making various reports!

I followed your advice and expanded the team to about fifty people. I find the team's growth too fast, and I'm starting to find it a bit overwhelming to manage!" 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

With his boss, Chen Xiu never held back, always speaking his mind and asking whatever he thought. In Chen Xiu's mind, Zhang Yang was capable of anything, operating on an entirely different level.

After listening, Zhang Yang smiled broadly, "It's good that people are reporting, it means there's a competitive mechanism within the team!

As long as you can ensure that this mechanism is positive and the scale is manageable, it won't cause negative impacts!

In my view, having reports beats everyone colluding to deceive you!

You just need to guide your subordinates normally, telling them what actions are the red lines that cannot be crossed. The rest is about rewarding those who work hard and acknowledge those capable and talented.

For those who are incompetent and cause trouble, just cut them off, let them be eliminated if necessary!

After several rounds of personnel refinement, once the team's foundation is solid, those problems won't be issues anymore.

Also, as a leader in the team, you must be willing to delegate power! As long as it's not a crucial issue, it can be left to the subordinates or partners to handle!

Look at me, the company is operating with almost a hundred people inside and out, does it stop me from enjoying tea and feeding fish in my little shop?"

With old Zhao as a pillar, the company's operations didn't prevent Zhang Yang from having tea and feeding fish. From the start of the company, Zhang Yang was very willing to delegate authority and share profits.

One person can't possibly earn all the money. Understanding how to share profits, delegate power, and establish a rational rule mechanism is the path to becoming a smart leader.

"I get it! Oh, there's another matter I need your advice on. After the team expanded, the current fishing gear sales segment seems unable to provide enough products to sell! The development is rapidly approaching the platform's ceiling, making it difficult to break through! Do you have any good suggestions, boss?"

Hearing Chen Xiu's question, Zhang Yang's mind briefly flashed the scene of Simba's careful selections dominating Kuaishou in his previous life, and a smile naturally tugged at the corner of his mouth.
