Xia Ruofei couldn't help but laugh. Cao Tieshu's wife actually used the word "report" in such a genteel manner.
Actually, when she came over, Xia Ruofei knew that she definitely had something to talk to him about. She wasn't good at hiding her thoughts, and it was all written on her face!
Although Cao Tieshu's wife was just a cafeteria worker, Xia Ruofei had never put on airs. He asked pleasantly, "Mrs. Cao, what's the matter?"
Mrs. Cao hesitated and asked, "Boss Xia, the company's headquarters is moving to the city. Will the cafeteria close down?"
Xia Ruofei paused and asked, "Who told you that?"
Then he looked at Feng Jing. Feng Jing shook her head slightly, indicating that she didn't know.
Mrs. Cao said, "That's what everyone is saying …"
Xia Ruofei said pleasantly, "Mrs. Cao, don't worry! The staff cafeteria will still be open. After all, there are still many people working on the farm! "
Some of the villagers who worked on the farm were used to eating in the staff cafeteria. On one hand, it was clean and hygienic. Especially since many couples worked here, after eating in the cafeteria, they didn't need to cook when they went home. It was very convenient.
More importantly, the company subsidized food in the staff cafeteria. Everyone only needed to spend five yuan to eat two meals. The actual cost was at least twenty yuan. The rest of the money was subsidized by the company. Naturally, everyone was willing to enjoy such benefits.
Mrs. Cao said again, "Boss Xia, if there are fewer people eating here, does that mean the cafeteria doesn't need so many workers?"
Actually, Cao Tieshu's wife wasn't worried about layoffs. She and her husband had been working at the company since its inception. Cao Tieshu was still in the middle of the company and was responsible for the farm's business. She wouldn't be affected by layoffs. She was mainly asking on behalf of the other young workers in the cafeteria.
Feng Jing smiled and said, "Don't worry! Everyone has signed a formal employment contract with the company. Even if the cafeteria staff is reduced, the company will make the appropriate arrangements. "
Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "Yes! And the company still needs to study whether to reduce the size of the cafeteria next! Tell everyone to just relax and be at ease! We definitely won't let anyone lose their jobs! "
Cao Tieshu's wife said happily, "I got it. Thank you, Boss Xia! Thank you, Manager Feng. Then … then I won't disturb your meal … "
After that, she happily walked back to the kitchen. Xia Ruofei couldn't help laughing again and said, "Sister Jing, have you noticed that Sister-in-law Cao's vocabulary is much more advanced now?"
In the past, as a peasant woman, she wouldn't have been able to say words like "report" or "eat".
Feng Jing rolled her eyes at Xia Ruofei and said, "Your focus is really strange …"
Xia Ruofei scratched his head and said, "It seems that the relocation of the headquarters is imminent! Even the basic employees are spreading it … "
Feng Jing said snappily, "You just found out! If you don't come back, the employees are going to revolt! "
Xia Ruofei smiled. "Is it that serious?"
"Why not? The headquarters building is all ready. We're just waiting for you to come back and preside over the relocation! " Feng Jing said, "There are a few young people who rented a house near the building in advance. The company is delaying the relocation, so they are wasting their rent. Their faces are turning green …"
"Finalize it today!" Xia Ruofei said.
It turned out that what everyone was most concerned about was the relocation of the headquarters.
In the morning meeting, the Chief Administrative Officer, Dong Yun, was the first to report on this issue.
Dong Yun, who had officially taken office, still had short hair and was dressed in a fitting black business suit. She looked very neat and tidy.
She opened a folder and gestured to Feng Jing, then said, "Chairman, while you were on a business trip, the renovation of the headquarters building has been completed. The relevant office equipment has also been purchased. We hired a professional organization to conduct a comprehensive inspection of the building's environment. All aspects have met the standards, so we can move at any time."
Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "After the meeting, I'll go to the headquarters building to take a look. Then we'll set a date and move the headquarters there!"
Although everyone already knew about the relocation of the headquarters, when Xia Ruofei really made the decision, the company's senior officials present were still overflowing with excitement.
The relocation of the headquarters meant that the company had walked out of the remote suburbs and officially stepped onto the road of great development.
Having an entire building in the center of Sanshan City, where every inch of land was worth an inch of gold, was definitely a reflection of the company's strength! As the company's senior management, everyone was also honored.
Next, the marketing director, Xiao Qiang, reported the company's overall operation to Xia Ruofei.
In fact, the Taoyuan Company's products had always been in a state of short supply. Needless to say, the earliest brand of Taoyuan vegetables, the cooperation channels were already quite mature. Iron maple bucket, caterpillar fungus, Taoyuan Dahongpao, and so on also had stable distribution channels. In addition to supplying Tong Ren Tang and other cooperation channels, the company's sales in the e-commerce channels were also quite popular.
It was worth mentioning that the sales of Yangtze River herring were also very smooth.
In the early stages, Xia Ruofei asked them to deliberately arrange for some soft articles to be published on the Internet. It did indeed evoke the delicious memories of many people. Although fresh Yangtze River herring was only sold in the Sanshan area and was frozen in other areas, the deliciousness of the herring quickly conquered a large number of gluttons. The expensive herring was often sold out.
There was no need to talk about the pharmaceutical factory. The Yuji Ointment was completely sold through the online sales channel, but until now, it was still in the mode of regular rush to buy. The pharmaceutical factory's production capacity was at full capacity, but it still couldn't completely meet the demand.
This was only the Huaxia market. If it went global, even if the pharmaceutical factory expanded several times, it might not be able to meet the demand.
Xue Jinshan, the director of the pharmaceutical factory, also joked that the overseas business had been quite prosperous in recent years. Many people went abroad to bring goods for others, and the Yuji Ointment had given birth to the "Huatao" business. It was said that many foreigners who came to Huaxia would try to buy a few sets of Yuji Ointment to bring back.
Although the Yuji Ointment wasn't officially sold overseas, its reputation wasn't weak at all.
It was the same for the Yangxin soup. Most of the Yangxin soup was directly purchased by the hospital because it was the only special treatment for autism in the world. Moreover, the effect was very obvious, so it was consumed very quickly.
Xia Ruofei didn't intend to make a lot of profit from the Yangxin soup. The price was also quite affordable, so most families with autism could afford the Yangxin soup.
In addition, considering that many autistic children received all kinds of corrective training from a young age, many families were poor because of the illness, and there were many children from poor families who couldn't afford the Yangxin soup, the Taoyuan Company's charity fund set up a "Star Fund" program to help autistic children.
As long as the autistic children were verified to be from poor families, they would be able to receive funding from the Star Fund. Not only would they receive a certain amount of free medication, but they would also receive a certain amount of cash support.
This also brought great social prestige to the Taoyuan Company, and the Taoyuan Charity Fund also became famous because of it.
Xia Ruofei had been listening to the report quietly. After Xue Jinshan finished, he said, "Director Xue, let me interrupt here. The shortage of the Yangxin soup may not be changed in a short time. Have you considered that the hospitals that use our medicine may have some problems with corruption? "
When there was a demand, there would naturally be benefits. Although most doctors were good, it was inevitable that there would be a few people who had some bad ideas in this regard for benefits.
Now that the supply of the Yangxin soup was controlled, there was a problem of some people using the medicine first, and some people waiting in line for a period of time. The doctors had a lot of autonomy in who was first and who was last.
Even more extreme cases couldn't rule out the possibility of doctors writing fake prescriptions, and then selling the Yangxin soup at a high price.
Xue Jinshan said, "Boss Xia, if the water is too clear, there will be no fish. It's unrealistic to completely eliminate this situation. However, we still have measures to deal with it. For the central hospitals with larger quotas, we have permanent pharmaceutical representatives who can play a supervisory role. As for the smaller hospitals, we will also investigate openly and secretly from time to time. I believe that there will definitely be no large-scale resale! "
The pharmaceutical representatives of other companies were extremely good at flattering in the hospital, and all kinds of ways to curry favor with the departments in charge and the doctors. Only the pharmaceutical representatives of the Taoyuan Pharmaceutical Company were the opposite. It had to be said that this was a very strange phenomenon.
Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "This needs to be a long-term mechanism, and even more people. I don't want the medicine that we have worked so hard to develop and produce to become a tool for a few people to profit!"
"Okay, Boss Xia!" Xue Jinshan quickly recorded and said, "After I go back, I will arrange for all the supervisors and pharmaceutical representatives to conduct a comprehensive investigation!"
"Well, after finding out, on the one hand, we have to report to the hospital. On the other hand, we also have to take measures. If necessary, we can also reduce some of the quotas!" Xia Ruofei said, "Anyway, the production is limited. If one company has less, others will have more. Overall, the patients' interests won't be damaged."
Dong Yun also said, "Chairman, I suggest that we set up a column on the company's official website to expose the hospitals and doctors with problems, and also write down the measures such as reducing the quotas. In addition, for the hospitals that are more well-controlled, we can appropriately increase the quotas. In this way, on the one hand, it will be a deterrent, and on the other hand, it can also mobilize the enthusiasm of the hospitals to restrain themselves! "
Xia Ruofei said, "Boss Dong, this is a good suggestion! Factory Manager Xue, take note of it. As for the adjustment requirements of the website, you can directly connect with the technical department! "
"Okay, Chairman!" Xue Jinshan quickly responded.
Then, the chief financial officer, Pang Hao, began to report the company's financial situation.
Pang Hao held a thick report and said, "Chairman, as of yesterday, our company's revenue has reached 320 million. The higher revenue is 180 million for Yuji Ointment, as well as high-end Chinese medicinal herbs such as Caterpillar Fungus and Iron maple bucket. The revenue of Taoyuan Vegetables is also very stable, reaching about 53 million. In terms of revenue, the proportion of online channels is also increasing. This is mainly because Yuji Ointment is sold through online channels."
Pang Hao paused, then said, "In terms of expenses, in addition to the normal expenses such as salaries, benefits, taxes, and so on, there is also the final payment for the purchase of the headquarters building, the renovation, the purchase of office equipment, and so on. This is about 220 million. Currently, the company's accounts have about 90 million in liquid funds! "
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "The situation is much better than I thought! I thought that after buying the building, the company wouldn't be able to make ends meet! I didn't expect there to be surplus! "
Everyone laughed when they heard that.
Xia Ruofei then asked, "How much is our company's net assets?"
Pang Hao was obviously prepared and immediately answered, "The company's liquid funds are 90 million. In addition, we have a pharmaceutical factory, a building, and a farm. The valuation of these fixed assets is about 600 million. Recently, land prices and housing prices have increased, so this valuation may increase. Of course, in terms of the company's intangible assets, the value of our Taoyuan brand is also increasing, especially the Yuji Ointment and Heart-Nourishing Soup. I've referred to the evaluation of several professional organizations, and the intangible assets can reach 1 billion. As for the debt … it's zero! "
Pang Hao's expression was a little strange when he said that. He was a very professional financial officer. To be honest, he had almost never heard of such a large company having zero debt.
"So, our company is worth 1.7 billion?" Xia Ruofei asked with a smile.
"This is just a conservative estimate," Pang Hao said. "In fact, some organizations have valued us at more than 2 billion."
Feng Jing also smiled and said, "I've also received many inquiries from organizations recently. They are all interested in financing! Among them, there is no lack of well-known venture capital like Sequoia Capital. "
"That's because they see the value of the Taoyuan brand!" Xia Ruofei said, "Capital is all about profit. Otherwise, how can they look at a small company like ours?"
Then, Xia Ruofei changed the topic and said, "But we don't lack money. Why should we accept their financing?"
Feng Jing already knew Xia Ruofei very well. Xia Ruofei was a person who was usually amiable to everyone, but he was a little independent. She knew that Xia Ruofei would definitely not let his shares be diluted by capital.
However, Dong Yun, who came from an authentic business school, had a different opinion. She said, "Chairman, financing has its benefits. On the one hand, we can get development funds. On the other hand, we can get some other help. Those venture capital organizations have very strong connections …"
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "We'll talk about the financing later. Let's not talk about it today!"
When Dong Yun heard that, she knew that Xia Ruofei actually did not consider financing at all. Although she thought that this was a common problem of private enterprises and would definitely limit the company's development in the future, she was still a newcomer. Since the chairman had decided, she had nothing to say.
