Chapter 509: Chapter 227 Thorough Conquest, Completely Satisfied
Ignoring all the minor details in between, Su Huai’s purpose for this journey was to make Zhang Dayi believe in three things.
First, Xingyu would go public earlier than Ruhan. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
Second, Xingyu’s market value would be higher.
Third, "I understand your value the best."
He himself was utterly convinced of these three things, so this wasn’t about painting pie in the sky, it was about sharing hearts.
Of course, it sounded simple, but in reality, it was extremely difficult.
Zhang Dayi was not a naive girl like Chen Nuanhan, luckily, Su Huai was no longer the mediocre man with subpar EQ and IQ from his past life.
His communication skills ensured the precise and efficient delivery of his thoughts.
In this world, there are many entrepreneurs with grand visions and the ability to do great things but are not good at communicating, resulting in their talents being crushed by the relentless waves of time on the crowded beaches of humanity.
The qualities needed for success far exceed just the ability to get things done.
"Sister Yi, you are already very successful and you don’t necessarily need Xingyu, just as we don’t necessarily need you to achieve our goals. We are each other’s non-essential options, but this exactly proves one thing..."
Su Huai paused slightly, and she promptly asked, "What thing?"
"That we are the partners best able to expand each other’s capabilities."
Su Huai gazed at her meaningfully, and she was stunned.
The statement was hard to understand, but it was extremely thought-provoking—the more one thought about it, the more intriguing it became.
Su Huai leisurely picked up the coffee and took small sips under the afternoon sun, giving her ample time to think.
When she started speaking again, she had roughly figured it out on her own.
"I always hear people in the internet circles talk about ’empowering’. I’ve always felt that the term seemed a bit condescending, as if I lack energy without your empowerment... Su Huai, I really like this idea of ’expanding capacity’!"
"It seems Sister Yi, you have completely understood."
Su Huai complimented her and then leisurely followed with the real final explanation.
Also, it was the ultimate move for poaching talent.
"Two particularly complementary partners who need each other, to the extent that they cannot accomplish anything without the other, are both a match made in heaven and a constraint on each other.
1+1 > 2, that’s good.
But if we think further into the future, once either of the two reaches their own limits, then the company as a whole also reaches its limit.
At that point, the complementary effect is still there, but that’s about it.
So, is it possible to break up this combination?
No, it’s not possible. Having been intertwined to this extent, everything is deeply meshed together, and forcibly separating them would be tantamount to crippling oneself, like chopping off one’s own arms.
We often criticize others saying so-and-so is holding so-and-so back, and they would be better off apart...
But it’s really not that simple.
Li Yanhong started to delegate authority several years ago, but after all the handover, no one could run it properly. Is it because the successors lack ability?
No, it’s just that Baidu barely functions without him.
Yet, continuing his autocracy doesn’t work either, as his personal capabilities were clearly no longer keeping up when Baidu reached its peak.
Once boasting the highest market value, how can Baidu compare to AT now?
And let’s look at Alibaba, the company you are most familiar with. Ma Yun is also delegating authority. What do you think about Zhang Yong serving as the CEO? Is he able to stand on his own two feet?
I think you know the answer very well.
So, the so-called match made in heaven is bound to become repulsive to each other at some time, some place unless both sides are the content and fatalistic type, which is incredibly rare.
You told me before that Mr. Feng from Ruhan and his wife are grateful to you for your partnership, that you’ve worked together harmoniously, and that you complement each other’s roles very well.
I believe that’s true and also believe that you will go public smoothly, um, within another four or five years at most.
But what about after that?
Going public is just one milestone on a long journey, not the final result, and certainly not your peak.
Have you ever felt incapacitated by something at any moment?
If you haven’t, then have you ever felt constrained by the company at an instant, realizing that you could have done something better but only achieved mediocre results due to certain reasons?
If so, then I tell you that this honeymoon phase of your perfect union is coming to an end. Perhaps your ability is no longer enough to support Ruhan’s grand strategy, or maybe Ruhan’s energy is no longer sufficient to support your ambitions.
Sister Yi, answer me truthfully, yes or no?"
Zhang Dayi stayed silent for a long time, her breath ragged, her gaze shifting, and she dared not look directly at Su Huai.
She suddenly realized that Su Huai was like a demon.
Who goes about poking people in their soft spots like this?!
Okay, actually it wasn’t pain, but an indescribable unease that came from temptation and moved towards panic.
Zhang Dayi felt as if she were coming apart.
"Yes, yes I guess..."
She looked down at her coffee cup, the dark brown liquid resembling a bottomless abyss when still. She unconsciously stirred the rim of the cup, and ripples surfaced, shattering the abyss.
"But it’s not that problems come up often... And what kind of cooperation doesn’t run into issues? Even couples argue... Of course, I’m not— I’m not saying you’re wrong. This rationale is very interesting, I’ve never thought about it deeply..."
She was flustered.
Su Huai knew that victory was signaling to him, as doubt once arisen, would only lead to more questions.
But he was in no hurry to push for anything and instead continued along with her reasoning.
"Right, any cooperation will run into issues, and I can’t possibly have only pleasant experiences with my partners.
But not all issues are created equal. The great man’s words about primary and secondary contradictions still apply here."
