557: Chapter 557 Acquiring Aiyouchong! Merging Management Teams!

Yes!

Once she marries into the family, she'll have to call the boss "Cousin" too.

Just thinking about it, Wang Juan was actually a little excited!

Not long after, Su Yang received news that He Zhiheng and Wang Juan had bought Liu Jianda's house and had taken out a mortgage with Tian Hanxiong.

They paid a down payment of 600,000 and took out a loan of 1.2 million.

And so, this young couple had the honor of joining the ranks of debt-ridden homeowners!

They would have to pay over four thousand a month for thirty years!

However, his cousin would definitely be able to afford the repayments.

Su Yang also planned to raise the salary level of the headquarters management team this year or next, allowing his cousin to catch a ride on the wave of success!

Now, Jufan Holdings had more and more companies under its umbrella, and several of the subsidiaries were growing rapidly; it was no longer the unknown little conglomerate it once was, and it was now quite well-known locally.

In the coming period, Su Yang transferred Geng Huayan, who had been developing the market in Shancheng, back to Meijia Housekeeping, and let Yu Ying, recommended by Geng Huayan, serve as the general manager of the Meijia Housekeeping branch in Shancheng.

At the same time, Su Yang also sent Fu Yuansheng from Meijia Housekeeping to Xiang Province to develop the housekeeping market!

Fu Yuansheng had originally worked in housekeeping before jumping ship to Meijia.

The benefits for Meijia employees were quite good, and with Jufan Holdings behind them, they had recently attracted quite a bit of professional talent!

In fact, it wasn't just Meijia; companies like Menghai Travel, Hongyu Law Firm, Yulong Technology, and Shenying Security—those less prominent subsidiaries under Jufan Holdings—had all attracted a lot of local talent after Jufan Holdings established a certain reputation locally!

Fu Yuansheng's abilities were quite good, and after talking with him, Su Yang decided to send him to Xiang Province to develop the market.

Menghai Travel and Hongyu Law Firm would also send people into Xiang Province in the near future.

Yu Siying suggested to Su Yang that they establish another Spark Media branch in Hangzhou.

Su Yang didn't hesitate and agreed immediately; having subordinates with ambition was definitely a good thing!

Doing self-media in Hangzhou definitely wouldn't be a problem; e-commerce was developed there, so they could test the waters, and as it happened, Meixing Model Agency also had a branch there.

Just then, Jiang Pingyuan contacted Su Yang to ask where he wanted to hold the class reunion.

The date for the reunion had already been set for the twentieth of this month, a Saturday at noon.

He was just saying he wanted to "slaughter" Su Yang.

When the time actually came, he would be too embarrassed!

Su Yang thought for a moment and asked, "Is the reunion just going to be eating and drinking at the dinner table?"

"It would be even better if you could arrange other activities!" Jiang Pingyuan laughed. "You know, we country folk don't know how to have as much fun as you city people!"

"Uh... stop mocking me!" Su Yang said with a laugh. "Let me think... how about a bathhouse?"

"Huh?"

"There are card rooms, KTV, an e-sports-style swimming pool, saunas; we can play billiards, watch movies, and there's massage service..."

"No, no, no. This is a class reunion. We're just having one meal together; we might all go our separate ways after eating. Don't arrange so many activities... we need to stay together, not split up!"

"Then let's go to Shuzhengxiang!"

Su Yang suddenly remembered that his own company hadn't organized a team-building event yet.

A bathhouse seemed like a pretty good choice for team building.

Everyone should be able to find activities they like!

If it were on a Monday... the employees might not be so resistant!

Jiang Pingyuan said in surprise, "That very famous restaurant?"

"Yes!"

"Then we won't stand on ceremony!"

"Feel free!"

"Alright!" Jiang Pingyuan said happily. "I'll go tell them right now!"

"Go ahead! Remember to report the number of people to me!"

"Okay!"

On September 10th, Su Yang received news that the negotiations with Aiyou Pet were almost finalized.

Su Yang took Li Yuping and other Shenmiao Pets executives to have a meal with the two bosses of Aiyou Pet, and everyone exchanged business cards, considering it a way to make friends!

By September 12th, Shenmiao Pets officially signed an acquisition agreement with the Aiyou Pet chain of hospitals.

Shenmiao Pets acquired the Aiyou Pet chain of hospitals for 30 million.

At the same time, they also needed to assume the 11 million in bank loans of the Aiyou Pet chain of hospitals!

It was rare for those in real business not to owe bank loans, and Su Yang felt this price was acceptable.

Acquiring this long-established chain of pet hospitals, Aiyou Pet, was very important for the development of Shenmiao.

Please... bookmark... the... book...!

Besides gaining a group of professional employees, Shenmiao could also rely on these pet hospitals to recruit talent and train newcomers.

Thus, the newly established Shenmiao Pets used a "snake swallowing an elephant" strategy to quickly possess eleven pet hospitals in Rongcheng and Shancheng.

The entire pet medical industry in Shancheng and Rongcheng also took notice of Shenmiao Pet Medical, as Aiyou Pet was quite well-known in both Rongcheng and Shancheng.

When the domestic pet medical leader, Dapeng Pet Hospital, entered Shancheng, they had thought about acquiring Aiyou Pet.

However, because another pet chain was more aggressive, Aiyou Pet missed out on Dapeng!

On the day of the acquisition of Aiyou Pet, Su Yang also talked with the heads of the eight Aiyou Pet hospitals, promising that there would be no layoffs in the short term and that he would increase the base salary of every employee by one thousand per month.

The benefits at Aiyou Pet were decent; at the very least, employees who had passed their probation all had social insurance!

The original eight Aiyou Pet hospitals, plus all the headquarters staff, totaled only 136 people, which wasn't a large scale; increasing every employee's base salary by one thousand was a piece of cake for Su Yang!

However, regarding the Aiyou Pet headquarters management, Su Yang and Li Yuping still carried out a series of adjustments to achieve a true merger and acquisition; one management team was enough for eleven pet hospitals.

Merging indiscriminately with too many subsidiaries could lead to the formation of factions, which would be detrimental to the company's future development!

If it wasn't dealt with now, it would be even more troublesome to make cuts later!

After Shenmiao's management and finance department took over the company, Su Yang transferred the 30 million to the accounts of the two former bosses of Aiyou Pet according to the contract, and the acquisition was considered complete.

[Ding~ Your Shenmiao Pets employees have exceeded one hundred, you have obtained achievement rewards: 3 constitution points, Advanced Animal Affinity (talent), and all buffs for the pet hospitals under your name have been upgraded.]

[Ding~ Your Shenmiao Pet Hospital has obtained a buff: Pet cooperation +50%, pet doctor diagnostic accuracy +30%.]

Adding the 3 constitution points to his body, Su Yang threw himself into screening all the Aiyou Pet employees, and also took the opportunity to assist Li Yuping in merging the management teams of Shenmiao Pets and Aiyou Pet!

However, because most of the management at Shenmiao Pets had been personally determined by Su Yang, and the Aiyou Pet management lagged behind Shenmiao's overall level in terms of ability and character, Shenmiao's team remained dominant.

As for the original Aiyou Pet senior management, some were adjusted, some were promoted, and some were dismissed.

And then there were those who resigned voluntarily!

Su Yang didn't have any objections to this.

As long as they weren't exceptionally outstanding talent, he wouldn't force them to stay!

If they were truly exceptionally outstanding, Su Yang certainly wouldn't mind entrusting them with important responsibilities, and he certainly wouldn't skimp on their compensation compared to others!
