My American magical life
Chapter 914 - 914 69

914: Chapter 69 914: Chapter 69 Friends who have been billionaires know that when your business reaches a certain scale, you are bound to lose control in management.

Those bosses who need to handle everything personally are not dedicated but simply lacking money.

How to manage when things are out of control is a hassle only legitimate tycoons have to face.

Major corporations have complicated business operations, and their internal systems are relatively mature, starting with hiring hundreds of employees, with tens of thousands not being an exception.

The helmsman of such enterprises cannot possibly handle every single task personally; hence they need to build a management system and find reliable people to take charge of various business aspects.

Achilles is most short of time; he is always recruiting but never has enough people, nor are they the right fit.

However, this doesn’t mean his subordinates are all incompetent.

For successful entrepreneurs and managers, recruiting is complex due to many realistic factors and is often seen as a necessary endeavor.

The crystallization of different interest groups within the company needs to be broken up through management mobility, projects with poor reports and data need fresh changes, and pioneering projects demand more competitive and mature talent.

In short, big corporations are always hiring and always trying to make their internals more efficient; such efforts are eternal, but their effectiveness is another story.

Before Nokia perished, they tried very hard; Kodak was once a global enterprise benchmark before they hit a dead end.

Here, we must introduce a new crucial factor – the ability of the leader.

Former entrepreneurs can easily understand this concept.

As the founders of a business, they’ve unearthed all the major talents themselves and naturally can direct them as they please.

Once the founder steps back, the company often needs a successor, and that’s where problems arise.

Family-owned businesses can easily suffer from internal strife: infighting within the family, ambitious Power Ministers clashing with the young master, and previously benign shareholders fighting against the founder’s lineage…

To solve the internal strife, hiring professional managers becomes a good choice.

But professional managers do not own shares in the company, whether they do well or not, they still have a salary to collect.

That’s why the stock option reward model for the management level emerged.

The developmental trajectory of modern business management models is roughly such, but for Cheng Daqi’s power, the situation is different.

It’s not an entity with legal significance, but a coalition of interests based on the uniqueness of Cheng Daqi, the founder.

For those unaware of its existence, it’s nonexistent, but for people like Niusen, it definitely exists.

If America has a Deep State, Cheng Daqi’s power can unquestionably be considered part of this Deep State.

President Cheng’s power has no managers; he is a leader of his generation.

As BEC faces investigative pressures, President Cheng chooses to stay in HK and not return to America, a decision that truly tests the cohesion of his power.

Take an example, why didn’t ancient emperors like to lead their troops into battle personally?

Did they not want to?

No, they could not.

Anyone with a basic understanding of history will notice something interesting: the founders of dynasties or empires were never afraid to lead personally, but their descendants and successors wouldn’t dare to do the same.

As the founder of his business Empire, Cheng Daqi dares to stay in HK, waiting for the situation in America to ferment.

It’s not confidence but strength that allows him to do so!

—————–

Geweil doesn’t like Washington D.C.

very much; there are too many big shots here.

A prince from a provincial ruler’s family who enters the capital city sometimes ends up worse than a dog, and this harsh reality often isn’t because those dogs don’t recognize the power of Niusen or the California Clique.

It’s purely because the power dynamics just don’t align.

You’re the brother of California Rancher, and I’m the brother-in-law of another Rancher, no need for either of us to give face to the other.

Therefore, Geweil didn’t waste too much time socializing and soon met with Yusuf, the Deputy Director at NTIA from California.

The two met at Yusuf’s house, the second-generation immigrant from California welcomed the brother of the California Rancher.

“Mr.

Geweil, I’m surprised you’re interested in NTIA affairs, have you encountered any trouble?”

The unspoken rule of exercising power for personal benefit in America is widely understood, and Yusuf didn’t hesitate to show an attitude that cooperation was possible.

Yusuf: I’m really eager to advance!

Commissioner Geweil, if you need anything, just let me know!

“Well, my brother mentioned you, Mr.

Yusuf, you are a distinguished figure in California’s electronic communications sector.

I came to Washington D.C.

mainly to meet my aunt, as you know, Madam Speaker is too busy and doesn’t have much time to go back to California.”

Geweil first made it clear about his resources and power, glad to see the attitude of the NTIA Director Yusuf was favorable, he also breathed a sigh of relief.

Indeed, taking the middle-level approach seems to be feasible.

“Yes, Madam Speaker has broken her heart over this country.

Ah, I grew up in California, and received a lot of help from her, I even owe my position as Director to her policies.”

Madam Speaker has a long history of influence in American politics and has done a lot for California, Yusuf’s words might be mixed with truth and flattery, but the main idea was clear.

If the organization needs it, I’m willing to give my all!

The California Clique has a strong market presence in America, with California as the top economic state, figures like Niusen and Nanxi rank among the most influential political leaders.
