Chapter 220 A boss who can't be a hands-off manager isn't a good boss!
Ye Fan got into the driver's seat, and Miao Zi skillfully opened the butterfly door, got into the passenger seat, carefully placed the documents at her feet, and then fastened her seatbelt.
The engine started, the air conditioner emitted a soft hum, and the cool air quickly dispelled the stuffiness inside the car.
But he didn't leave in a hurry.
He turned his head to look at Miao Zi, his eyes focused: "Now that the office has been settled, the next step is to register a new company. I'll leave it to you to handle everything."
Miao Zi immediately straightened her back, displaying 100% professionalism: "Please rest assured, Mr. Ye. I will use the ICBC VIP access channel to connect with the business registration department, which will greatly expedite the process. It is expected that all registration procedures will be completed within 48 hours, and the business license and other documents will be readily available."
Her tone was full of confidence, a confidence she possessed in her professional field.
She paused slightly, then spoke in a perfectly timed tone of inquiry: "Currently, there are two specific matters that require your final confirmation."
"Go on," Ye Fan gestured for her to continue.
"First, what name do you plan to call the company?" Miao Zi repeated clearly, with a hint of probing in her eyes.
Ye Fan slapped his forehead, realizing he had forgotten about it and hadn't told Miao Zi.
"Let's call it Minglu Culture & Entertainment!"
"Minglu?" The name sounded quite elegant and didn't seem like it was chosen randomly. Miao Zi was a little curious!
Ye Fan nodded slightly, a hint of a smile in his eyes, without explaining the meaning of the name.
"Okay, I understand." Miao Zi didn't ask any further questions and quickly took notes.
Then, the second crucial question was posed: "Secondly, regarding the company's registered capital, how much do you plan to subscribe for? Is actual payment required?"
Ye Fan's answer was without the slightest hesitation, clear and forceful: "Twenty million! The actual amount paid."
In the field of business registration, registered capital is divided into subscribed capital and paid-in capital, and the two are vastly different.
The subscribed capital system means that shareholders only need to commit to a certain amount and time limit for their capital contribution in the articles of association, and the funds do not need to be in place immediately.
This is the choice of the vast majority of companies. It is flexible in operation and can even demonstrate "strength" by setting an "astronomical figure," even if it is only on paper.
The risk is that if the company goes bankrupt and is liquidated, shareholders will be liable for limited liability up to the amount of their subscribed capital.
In other words, the bigger the boast, the more you might lose.
The paid-in capital system requires shareholders to deposit the full amount of their promised registered capital into the company's verification account upon registration, subject to supervision.
This not only froze a large amount of shareholders' working capital, but also served as a direct declaration of hard power.
While a low paid-in registered capital does not necessarily mean a company is weak, companies that can pay in a high amount of registered capital undoubtedly have strong market persuasiveness due to their ample cash flow and the determination of their shareholders.
(Although this is a bit obvious, I'll still say it.)
Miao Zi quickly assessed the deeper meaning behind Ye Fan's decision.
This not only provides the newly established "Minglu Culture" with a strong armor of credibility, but also sends an extremely clear and powerful signal to potential partners, competitors, and even future core employees.
This company is serious!
Moreover, they have the financial resources to play the game!
She composed herself and confirmed in the most professional tone, "Understood, Mr. Ye. Minglu Culture & Entertainment Co., Ltd. has a registered capital of RMB 20 million, fully paid up. I will oversee the entire process to ensure the capital verification is efficient and compliant. This lays a very solid foundation for the company's reputation."
There was a hint of approval in her tone.
"I will expedite the remaining tasks as quickly as possible, and I will report any key developments to you immediately," Miao Zi added, her tone resolute.
"Okay," Ye Fan replied, his hands already on the steering wheel, ready to drive away.
Just then, he remembered something and turned to look at Miao Zi in the passenger seat: "Oh, right, there's something else I need to trouble you with."
"Please go ahead." Miao Zi immediately put herself into listening mode, her finger hovering over the tablet's memo pad.
"Help me connect with a top-tier headhunting firm," Ye Fan instructed clearly. "The goal is to find several core high-level management talents for Minglu Culture."
He deliberately avoided using the network of connections within the Hodo Group.
This entertainment company is independent of the Hongdou system. Ye Fan needs it to have its own independent genes and operating system from the beginning to avoid confusion or dependence on Hongdou's investment and technology attributes.
Therefore, all matters are handled separately.
As the leader, he was well-versed in the art of personnel management.
It's not necessary to do everything yourself; the key is to identify and appoint the right people, control the strategic direction, and entrust the tactical execution to professionals.
The most efficient boss is one who successfully delegates responsibilities without any external involvement.
A boss who can't be a hands-off manager isn't a good boss!
Liu Ruyan is in charge of the entire Hongdou Group, so he's just a hands-off manager now.
"Okay." Miao Zi was not surprised at all, and even took it for granted.
As a dedicated secretary assigned to top private banking clients by ICBC, her responsibilities extend far beyond financial matters.
"To solve all the needs of our clients related to wealth growth and career development" is the core tenet of ICBC's private banking services.
Connecting with top global headhunters and selecting and matching top talent in the industry is a familiar and easy part of her daily service.
If she can't even do this well, then she'll have wasted her resume, which she built up from the bottom, and Wen Yan's trust in her.
"What are your core requirements for the target candidate?" Miao Zi asked, preparing a precise profile.
Ye Fan pondered for a moment before giving clear and open criteria: "Ability is paramount! Age should be as young as possible, gender is not a factor. What I need are pragmatic individuals with forward-looking vision, strong execution capabilities, innovative thinking, and industry resources. Backgrounds can be in traditional entertainment giants, but the key is their past achievements and how well they align with 'Minglu's' future direction."
Miao Zi quickly jotted down the key points on the tablet and added, "Okay, Mr. Ye. The requirements have been noted. Our ICBC has deep strategic partnerships with several top headhunting firms that serve Fortune 500 companies, covering the entertainment, culture, and media sectors both domestically and internationally. I will immediately initiate the process and request them to conduct preliminary screening and in-depth background checks based on your needs. Once we have a list of qualified candidates, I will prepare a detailed evaluation report and send it to you for review. After you narrow down your choices, we will arrange the formal interview process. Please let me know if you have any ideas or adjustments during the process."
Her answer was clear and logical, with well-defined steps, demonstrating strong process control and confidence in resource integration.
Ye Fan nodded in satisfaction: "Very good. That's settled then, thank you."
