Chapter 439 A New Personal Assistant

Chapter 439 A New Personal Assistant

From the moment William Chen came to the United States, or in other words, from the second day after passing the interview, Cheng Biru and Wen Qingyan, William Chen's personal assistants, have already started to work.

According to the past resumes of the two, it can also be seen that although they have excellent abilities and rich work experience, they still lack experience in this kind of personal assistant position.

At the very beginning of their employment, both Cheng Biru and Wen Qingyan had already signed a confidentiality agreement formulated by William Chen's legal counsel with various regulations in great detail. That is to say, during their working as William Chen's personal assistants, Anything about him needs to be kept absolutely confidential, no matter whether it is intentional or unintentional, it cannot be disclosed to the outside world.

Otherwise, the consequences will be very serious. Once there is a violation, I am afraid they will have to face huge compensation and legal liability.

After all, this is normal. In this position, what they come into contact with every day will be very important news about William Chen's business empire. It may be revealed with a casual sentence, which can trigger a wealth change worth hundreds of millions of dollars. .

Therefore, from this moment on, both of them began to pay great attention to their actions. This position is very attractive, but the responsibilities involved are also very important.

During this period of time, the two followed William Chen and saw the scenery in the world that they had never touched before in their lives.

Although in the past, both Cheng Biru and Wen Qingyan could be said to be very good people, reaching an achievement that 99% of ordinary people could not achieve, but after all their positions, it is still difficult to get in touch with William Chen's level Life.

After becoming her personal assistants, the next day, they boarded each other's luxury private jet, which can also be said to be the only Airbus A380 private jet in the world so far - just in the second half of last year, the Saudi prince also I bought an Airbus A380 and converted it into my own sky palace, so at this time there are two A380 private jets in the world.

And in the following, they kept in contact with each other, and also saw some of the daily life of Chen William, one of the world's countless super rich people.

In business, the people Chen William came into contact with and the business he talked about were all in units of billions; in life, Chen William didn't need to shy away from them, so they also met the women around Chen William, Ivanta this Not to mention world-renowned celebrities, the rest are supermodels and first-line female stars at the top of the pyramid...

It can be said that when they first decided to participate in the application for William Chen's personal assistant, both Cheng Biru and Wen Qingyan had somewhat imagined the life of a super rich man like William Chen, but after contact with reality, they They also found that compared to William Chen's life, their imaginations were still too poor.

During this time in Los Angeles, William Chen’s personal assistant team added another member—Natalia Mars. She had been working in Meta Technology before, and she was regarded as a direct member of William Chen. Therefore, after that, Was recommended to him as a member of his personal assistant team in charge of Internet technology.

Speaking of it, Natalia Mars can also be regarded as having some relationship with Erica, because at the beginning when Pichai had not become the CEO of Meta Technology, Erica was managing the specific affairs of the company.

And Natalia was recruited by Erica from Google at that time, and she used to be her assistant.

Natalia is 27 years old this year. After getting a master's degree in computer science from MIT, she joined Google, and then performed well at Google. Later, she was recruited by Erica to Meta Technology Company. After Erica left there , has been serving as the contact and communication work between Meta Technology Company and its subsidiaries.

Of course, to be approved as Chen William's personal assistant, Natalia also passed the background check. She was born in a middle-class family, her father is a lawyer, and her mother is a teacher, and their family is more politically inclined Donkey gang, but it didn't involve too much, and there is no other messy background, so it can be regarded as innocent.

Don't say that Chen Weilian's review of personal assistants is too strict. After all, there is no big mistake in being careful. Some of his decisions will inevitably be affected by the information provided by his personal assistants. Their behavior will have certain binding force, but it is not absolute. When the real interests are large enough, human nature cannot stand the test.

……

"Dear Rick, how is the newlywed life? Has our lady Delphine been more gentle with you?"

Chen William met Rick Walton on this day, and he looked good. Last year, Rick finally married the eldest lady of the LVMH Group, Delphine Arnault. The wedding at that time was also held It was very grand, William Chen and Ivanta attended their wedding in France together, so when they met this time, he first teased each other.

"Very well, William, I think she is very well now, and needs no change."

After that, the two chatted about the current development of Zoom. It can be said that after selling the shares of Groupon and getting a large amount of cash, Zoom has obtained very rapid expansion opportunities. Currently, it is in the European market and South America. , is fighting back and forth with Amazon.

In fact, Groupon, which is supported by Amazon, does not pose too much threat to Zoom in terms of the online alliance of grocery stores, because Andrew, the founder of Groupon, obviously has some character flaws, that is, The control over the company is placed above the development of the company, so after Amazon became their major shareholder, the relationship between the two parties has undergone subtle changes.

And Groupon is still unable to give up the group buying business they started. It can be said that their transformation is not complete.

The importance of group buying business conflicts with the e-commerce business of all categories of daily necessities. The result is that when they do group buying activities, users respond enthusiastically because of price discounts, but online retail business However, there were few responses because Zoom competed on price for many of their categories.

This kind of competition is not about the price of all commodities, but for some commodities that users consume more frequently, using big data as the basis to carry out personalized price discounts.

And after such a long period of development, Zoom’s self-operated products have become extremely rich, unlike at the beginning, it mainly relies on partners. Therefore, even if Groupon tries its best to win over more partners, for Zoom, , it won't have much impact.

Therefore, I am afraid that this investment in Groupon will be a mistake by Amazon, and Zoom will use this to narrow the distance with Amazon.
