Chapter 3046 Soil

At first, when Zhou Buqi heard Li Jun talking about the outsourced positions in the company, he was very angry and thought it was nonsense.

After communicating with several people, I realized the complexity of this matter.

The outsourced business is owned by both Ziweixing International and Ziweixing.

However, the nature is different.

Ziweixing’s outsourcing work is mainly done by Ziweixing Engineering Institute.

What if other companies need a piece of software or a system but don’t know how to make it themselves? They can just ask Ziweixing Engineering Institute to do it, which means outsourcing the technical business. If it is a particularly complex business, Ziweixing Engineering Institute will send engineers to spend a long time teaching and guiding them.

One of Ziwei Cloud’s very important businesses is technical outsourcing.

Others’ skills are poor and they can’t do it, so I have to send someone to help you. This is Ziweixing’s outsourcing business.

Now this kind of outsourcing related to discrimination is different.

There are some very low-end businesses in some large companies that are too lazy or disdainful to do, so they hand them over to third-party outsourcing companies. They do things that others disdain to do, so there will definitely be gaps in remuneration and workplace treatment.

However, workplace discrimination is always bad.

This is not a healthy practice, and this is not the value that a large company like Ziweixing should have!

After Zhou Buqi had a conversation with several outsourced employees, he calmed down and went to see He Yang again, wanting to interpret the outsourcing issue from the perspective of the company's top management.

He Yang had a normal attitude. "Outsourcing is normal. Which big company doesn't outsource now? There are auxiliary police in the public security department. Auxiliary police with decades of work experience have to obey the orders of a regular police officer who just graduated and knows nothing. It's the same. And CCTV, those well-known hosts who are well-known to everyone, are all outsourced positions in labor dispatch. To put it bluntly, they are temporary workers!"

Zhou Buqi felt that he was a little cold.

He Yang said: "If you watch the news, whenever something goes wrong, it's the temporary workers who take the blame. When this happens, there will be a huge whirlpool of public opinion on the Internet, and netizens will be very excited. They mock that every time something goes wrong, it's the temporary workers who take the blame. But they don't know that those things were done by the temporary workers in the first place, and they should have been responsible. Why? Because those with formal positions don't work, and if they don't work, they don't have to take responsibility. All the work is done by temporary workers."

"What a mess! The greater the power, the greater the responsibility. From what you said, does it mean that the greater the power, the less the responsibility? The less the power, the greater the responsibility? If something goes wrong, the responsibility will be borne by the temporary worker with the least power? What kind of logic is this?"

"This is not called reason, this is called reality."

"Don't give me that!" Zhou Buqi didn't accept it at all and said angrily, "What are you comparing yourself with? Is Ziweixing's standard so low? If you want to compare, why don't you compare yourself with Microsoft or Google? Why don't you compare yourself with Ziweixing International? Ziweixing is a big company with a market value of more than 2000 billion US dollars, and you keep looking down?"

He Yang said: "I mean you need to understand the properties of this soil."

Zhou Buqi said in a deep voice: "The reason why Ziweixing has a market value of 2000 billion US dollars and is the company with the highest market value in China is because we are different from them! From what you said, why do I feel that you want to go along with them? What do you mean, have you made enough money and fallen into depravity?"

"Don't! Don't!" He Yang was shocked. "Don't accuse me. I can't stand workplace discrimination. I tell you this just to make you understand the difficulty and complexity. Some things can't be changed just because you want to. Even if Ziweixing is your company, you must admit that Ziweixing is rooted in this land and must draw nutrients from this land."

Zhou Buqi said: "Then just accept your fate?"

He Yang criticized him half-jokingly, "I think you haven't been in charge of Ziweixing's business for too long. You have been paying attention to Ziweixing International, right? Ziweixing International's racial distribution employment policy, the equal employment policy for men and women under the feminist trend, and the trend of equal pay for equal work, these complex issues, can you solve them? These are some of the troubles that are bound to exist when Ziweixing International takes root in Silicon Valley. These are things that come from the soil. It's useless even if you want to change them. You can't change them. You have to cooperate."

Zhou Buqi shook his head. "The most important thing is to have a clear conscience. No matter what Ziweixing International does, I have a clear conscience. I don't owe anyone anything. Ziweixing's outsourcing business is different. Really... After I heard about it, I really feel that we owe those outsourced employees a big apology! We have humiliated their personalities!" "Not really?"

He Yang was very surprised and felt that he was exaggerating.

Zhou Buqi said angrily: "I think you don't understand the suffering of the people, right? Do you know that the company's snacks and drinks for employees are actually prohibited from outsourcing!"

He Yang said: "I know. In fact, I approved it."

"what?"

"This matter has been reported to me, and I have read the report. There is a data. In our headquarters park, there are more than 9000 regular employees and more than 1200 outsourced employees. However, if snacks and drinks are made available to outsourced employees for free, our monthly supply chain of drinks and snacks will increase by 50%-60%."

"Ok?"

Zhou Buqi raised his eyebrows.

As expected, the complexity of reality cannot be simply judged, nor can it be based on a little one-sided information. It should be analyzed from multiple angles and perspectives.

He Yang said: "In fact, we provide free snacks and drinks to outsourced employees, which is nothing. It's just a few hundred thousand extra expenses every month. But the data feedback is too unfriendly, which makes many regular employees dissatisfied. If we don't stop this trend, the outsourced employees will even lead our regular employees astray!"

Zhou Buqi didn't know the inside story, but he could guess some reasons from the data feedback.

There are only 1200 million outsourced employees, but once the market is opened up to them, the monthly supply of snacks and drinks will increase by 50%... This is equivalent to the consumption of one outsourced employee, which is equivalent to 1-5 regular employees.

How can this be?

A very important reason is that outsourced employees lack a sense of belonging and they do not regard the company as their home.

Regular employees have a strong sense of belonging to the company and will not steal anything from the company. Even if they take some snacks home to eat, the amount they take is very limited. Whether it is their own self-requirements or the eyes of their colleagues, they will be restricted from taking company snacks and drinks home.

Anyway, if I don’t take it home today, I can just come to the company to eat it tomorrow.

  Outsourced personnel are different. They are not employees of Ziweixing. They are really bastards who don't take advantage of the opportunity. Why not take something for free? Moreover, outsourced positions are very unstable. They may work at Ziweixing today and leave Ziweixing tomorrow. The uncertainty of the future makes them want to take advantage of their position and get as much as they can, even if it is just a small snack.

He Yang said: "Providing some snacks and drinks for free is actually a small expense, I don't care at all. However, what I care about is the bad atmosphere behind the phenomenon! In the past few years, our company did not have any outsourcing teams sent by third parties. The company was full-time employees, and everyone regarded the company as their home. During that period, the supply of free snacks and drinks was very low, with an average of only 13 yuan per person per day. This is normal, who would steal from their own home? The supply of free snacks and drinks, this set of data actually reflects the employees' sense of belonging to the company!"

Zhou Buqi nodded.

This is the benefit of digitization.

Once the data is quantified, it becomes easy to analyze many things and all aspects can be coordinated.

Things like snacks and drinks are actually "junk food".

  If people are allowed to eat as much as they want, how much can they eat?

Especially if you eat it every day, you will get tired of it quickly.

If this data increases, it does not reflect that employees love to eat snacks and drink beverages, but that employees do not care about company assets and are wasting them intentionally! Or they take the company's things home and give them to their families to eat, which is also a violation of company principles!
