Rekindle 2003

Chapter 1102 Is it necessary to be so nice to employees?

In a corner of the meeting room, several employees of Yanhuang Group were discussing quietly.

"Did you hear that? The daily production capacity needs to be increased to 15 units? Can we do it?" an employee in work clothes said worriedly.

His colleague next to him frowned and responded, "We can do it, but the problem is, what if these computers can't be sold? Do we really need so much production capacity?"

"I heard that last year's national sales volume was less than 10 million. Our current production capacity is almost five times that of last year's national sales volume. This is too exaggerated."

"Yes, if we can't sell them, we have to stop working. What about our bonuses and overtime pay?"

A female employee said worriedly, with an obvious tremor in her voice.

Not far from them, another group of employees were also discussing:
A middle-aged man frowned and spoke worriedly, "This increase in production capacity sounds good, but if the market demand is insufficient, won't we be finished?"

"What I'm worried about is that if we can't maintain this production capacity, the company will lay off employees," his colleague responded, his eyes full of anxiety.

Another employee said firmly, “We need to find a time to talk to management about this. We can’t let them expand blindly like this.”

"But it won't work if the State Administration of Taxation fails to complete its mission. It's a national mission!"

"If the national mission cannot be completed, that is the company's business. What does it have to do with us? You can't let us lose our jobs in the future just to complete the mission, right?"

"You are being a little heartless. If it weren't for the national mission, we wouldn't be able to join the Yanhuang Group."

"But the question now is, I have a secure job, why should I lose it?"

"…That makes sense! If management doesn't fix the problem, we'll make trouble!"

Whether it was the main venue of Jincheng Jinniu Hotel or the branch venues of subsidiaries in various places, the emotions of the employees began to become complicated.

They discussed in low voices, and although their voices were not loud, everyone's eyes revealed their concerns about the future.

Both the middle-level managers and employee representatives at the main venue are elites in the industry. They have a keen sense of the market, and their concerns about idle production capacity are not groundless.

For those employees who experienced the three years of idle PC production capacity of the former TOP Group, the tragic situation of that year is still vivid in their minds.

The entities involved in the new mergers and acquisitions are even more panicked.

They know that the response to idle production capacity is to cut capacity.

How to cut?
Equipment sold and staff reduced.

Especially those people who were originally from state-owned brands, they are regretting it now.

Many people buy out their years of service, hoping to make a lot of money in the new company.

Now, I haven’t made any money and I may even lose my job. It seems that I should have stayed in the system and survived.

The students who can sit in the conference hall at this moment are not all newbies, and bookworms are not allowed to join this group.

They could still tell good from bad, and they could read people's faces. Looking at the situation in the conference hall, everyone felt terrible.

Although the mood of the employees at the conference hall was not overwhelming, there were undercurrents.

Li Yali bit her lip, her lychee eyes fixed on the young man on the stage, her little hands unconsciously twisted together.

For some reason, the negative atmosphere in the conference hall could not affect her.

Although she didn't know how Qing Yun would solve this problem, she inexplicably had confidence in him. He would definitely have a way, just like there were no problems that stumped him in middle school.

Guo Jing on the stage was also helpless about this.

But there was no way, this was the tone that Xiaoqing always used in his speech at this business analysis meeting.

Talk less about past achievements and more about the severe situation in the future.

At this moment, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and explain the serious situation bit by bit.

First suppress and then praise, he is in charge of suppression and Xiaoqing is in charge of praise.

Good people should be leaders.

Guo Jing's voice continued to echo in the venue.

"...I believe that all of you here understand that this huge production capacity will become a huge burden for us after March 3 next year."

The atmosphere in the conference room became more depressing with his low voice.

At the end, Guo Jing's eyes suddenly became as sharp as an eagle, scanning every corner of the venue, and then he spoke loudly and forcefully,
"But, everyone! The chairman said that there is no reason to cut back the increased production capacity!"

The prominent high note made everyone's shoulders, which were originally slightly hunched, involuntarily roll outward, and a glimmer of hope appeared in their eyes.

Looking at the silence in the conference hall, Guo Jing sighed inwardly.

I have to say, Xiaoqing is always good at playing.

After five seconds of silence, when all the attention in the venue was focused on himself, Emperor Yun turned on the microphone in front of him.

"Please rest assured that no matter what difficulties we face, the first principle of Yanhuang Group is to let employees and workers live with dignity! Live like the envy of employees in other companies!

Even if I, Qing Yun, go bankrupt and the Yanhuang Group goes bankrupt and liquidates, I will make sure that the amount of compensation you get when you leave will be enough to make others envious and jealous!

This article is written into the Yanhuang Group’s fundamental law, the Yanhuang Basic Law! "

Unsurprisingly, Qing Yun's words ignited the enthusiasm of the venue like a raging fire.

The workers' applause and cheers echoed in the branch venue. They were full of hope for the future and felt sincerely grateful for General Xiaoqing's commitment.

But at the main venue, the atmosphere was a little lacking.

The expressions of the people in the audience were polite with smiles, and they appeared calm and cautious.

The applause from the middle-level cadres and business backbones here was enthusiastic, but it seemed more restrained compared to the excitement in the branch venues.

They are not so easy to fool. We cannot rely on just empty promises. What they want to hear are specific strategies and clear plans, not just verbal promises.

As for the words of their brothers and sisters, they have long seen through them and let them go in one ear and out the other.

How can a boss and his employees be brothers and sisters?
It is nothing more than the additional emotional value that the boss provides to employees based on the employment relationship.

This thing is better than nothing.

Just like a skilled technician girl, she is essentially accepting and providing services, but she is willing to provide some emotional value in the process to make you happier, but you must not take it seriously.

Love rises with the bell, and when you go out, your heart should be as calm as water.

The king has no justice, and power has no family affection.

In the workplace, the relationship between leaders and employees is a working relationship, a superior-subordinate relationship.

The basis of this relationship is responsibility and authority, not personal feelings.

Just establish good interpersonal relationships, neither humble nor arrogant, and not overstepping your authority.

As the applause died down, everyone in the main venue focused their attention on Qing Yun, expecting him to provide more substantive content.

Emperor Yun also knew what was going on. In his previous life, he was also one of those who sat under the podium and was very clear about their thoughts.

There's nothing to be embarrassed about, it's human nature.

Only by respecting human nature can we live in harmony.

He took a deep breath and continued speaking.

“First, today, in front of the Xishu and Jincheng leaders present, and in front of all the subsidiaries across the country, I, Qingyun, solemnly promise that I will not lay off any employees due to business pressure within three years.

Of course, let me be frank in advance, except for those who want to just sit around and wait for death in the Yanhuang Group, the company does not keep idle people!
Besides, I treat you as my brothers, you can’t betray me.”

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and laughed in unison.

Who dares not to laugh?

After all, leaders at both levels in charge of the economy are here today.

What's more, what made them feel more at ease was that leaders at both levels were also very supportive. They took the microphone and said a few words, praising General Yanhuang Xiaoqing's social responsibility and commitment.

Everyone could hear that there was a kind and sincere feeling in Xiao Qing's words, and he was trying to send them a signal:
He is not just a chairman, but also a leader who cares about the well-being of his employees.

Qing Yun then announced: "Second, the company will carry out salary reforms to increase the basic salary of workers to the average salary of local urban state-owned enterprises and institutions..."

He paused deliberately here, and when everyone guessed whether it was 50% or 80%, he smiled mischievously and then said,
"100%!"

The look of a teenager who had succeeded in playing a prank instantly turned the venue into a sea of ​​joy.

After a while, Emperor Yun's face turned serious, "My goal is to make sure that you... my brothers, get a guaranteed income from working in the Yanhuang Group that is at least not lower than those who are paid by the emperor!

At the same time, the original piece-rate wage principle remains unchanged, and it still remains the original base and the original price!

In other words, you will have an extra income!

While taking fairness into consideration, the company emphasizes efficiency and encourages more work, more pay.”

Thunderous applause suddenly broke out in the main venue.

This made all the students look confused.

no……

Brothers, do you want to see what he is saying?
Does it have anything to do with you? However, people in the workplace, especially middle-level managers in various companies, know very well that this matter is not that simple.

However, this policy is about their subordinates and seems to have nothing to do with them.

However, they do know one thing: subordinates are different from each other.

Especially for industrial workers, the "ability performance" of workers who are paid in full and workers who are not paid in full is completely different.

As middle-level cadres whose jurisdiction must be confirmed by senior leaders before they can be exercised, they know the difference all too well.

Who doesn’t want the productivity of their workers to be 100% or even higher?

The workers’ means of production are machines and equipment; their means of production are the workers.

A worker must first sharpen his tools if he wants to do well.

So, on this point, they care more about it than the workers.

However, Mr. Xiaoqing’s announcement is not just a simple personal promise.

When you reach the position of middle-level cadre, you usually understand that when the leader speaks empty words, you'd better treat it as if the leader is just farting.

But General Xiaoqing's public announcement was not only written into the company's basic rules and regulations, but also received the endorsement of leaders at both the Xishu and Jincheng levels, so it can be considered effective.

After all, with this layer in place, if a situation arises in the future that no one wants to see, the workers will have a place to speak out.

Now that there is a safety net for extreme situations, the decision announced by President Xiaoqing at this moment is a reflection of respect and trust for employees.

Be it the personality or the kindness, others have truly shown their sincerity, and Xiaoqing's past style of always doing what he says has also made the employees very convinced of him.

It would be completely unreasonable to doubt anything at this time.

Qing Yun's personal charm was fully demonstrated at this moment. In the eyes of most people, he is not only a successful entrepreneur, but also a leader with deep humanistic care.

Yun Di, who had witnessed three generations of labor-capital conflicts in his previous life, knew better than anyone that employees were the company's most valuable asset.

Before fully automated machines replace people, workers' happiness and dignity are the cornerstones of a company's success.

If an entrepreneur does not want to have problems with his aorta from time to time, treating workers well is the best option.

As for the middle-level cadres...

Looking at the group of middle-level leaders in the audience who were staring at him eagerly, Emperor Yun sneered in his heart.

Sorry, this group is the target of his next purge.

The external expansion of horizontal mergers and acquisitions has brought about the accumulation of economies of scale, but it has also brought large and small groups of strongholds to the emerging Yanhuang Group.

It's not that he doesn't allow the existence of factions, but he doesn't allow the existence of factions that are not loyal to him.

Now, it is time for these middle-level cadres to show their loyalty to him.

What’s more, how can the so-called hawks and dogs be fed?

Only when the laborers are well fed can they have spiritual energy; but when the hawks and dogs are well fed they will just lie down in comfort.

For most of the middle-level leadership positions, as long as the grassroots employees below are capable, it doesn’t matter if someone else takes the position.

But this was not the time to resort to violence. He curled his lips and continued to strengthen his solidarity with the grassroots employees.

“Third, the group will purchase properties near production bases across the country to provide dormitories for local employees.

Each staff dormitory is a double room, and all employees who have worked for more than three years are accommodated in single rooms. "

With Qing Yun’s announcement of the third policy, the atmosphere in the meeting hall reached a new climax.

As soon as this policy was announced, the applause in the branch venue was like a tsunami, almost blowing the roof of the venue off.

The employees whispered excitedly and praised the policy.

Many of them have lived in company dormitories, where eight-, twelve- or even sixteen-person rooms are common.

Those dormitories are usually small, crowded, lack privacy, and are often located within factory premises. The purpose of the building design is simply to accommodate more people rather than to provide a comfortable living environment.

"Mr. Xiaoqing is so awesome. A double room, this treatment is better than many university dormitories!" an employee said excitedly.

“Yeah, this way we can have our own space and don’t have to squeeze together like before,” another employee agreed.

"And did you notice that Mr. Xiaoqing was talking about buying a real estate property, not building dormitories in the factory area? The comfort level would definitely be completely different!" analyzed a more careful employee.

The applause and cheers were transmitted to the main venue through sound signals, shocking everyone in the main venue.

They were shocked by Qing Yun's generosity.

But there are more doubts.

Is it necessary to be so nice to employees?

Is it too much?

At this time, Comrade Xishu Nanbowan turned around, nodded solemnly to Qin Tianchuan in the back row, and said,
"Lao Qin, you really found a good son-in-law! Good!"

Most large companies have employee dormitories, but the conditions are usually very simple and are far inferior to the Yanhuang Group's direct use of commercial residential buildings.

This move by Qingyun is undoubtedly unprecedented. The comfort of the property and the level of care for employees are completely two different things.

Of course, the most important thing is that this policy benefits not only employees and businesses.

Local governments are the biggest beneficiaries.

Under the tax-sharing system, for local governments that rely on business tax as their main source of tax revenue, a penny more or less in the hands of workers can make a big difference.

The multi-person staff dormitory is just a place to sleep.

The double and single room dormitories are the employees' own homes.

Having a home opens up many possibilities.

Once the necessities of food, clothing, housing and transportation are met, other expenses will naturally come into play.

Comrade Nan Bowan sighed and said that what Lao Chen said was right. As a chain leader enterprise, the Yanhuang Group is a blessing to the local area.

While Yanhuang Group itself is developing steadily, it will also attract a large number of supporting enterprises from the upstream of the industrial chain to settle down.

This will certainly provide a huge source of tax revenue for the local area and create a large number of jobs.

He stroked his beard and thought to himself, Hum! Why open so many production bases across the country?
We have to find a way to bring more people to Western Shu.

It's time to further strengthen our ties with the Yanhuang Group.

Qin Tianchuan's face was broken with laughter. Looking at his future son-in-law on the stage, he felt an unprecedented sense of pride.

This brat not only achieved huge success in business at this time, but more importantly, he also understood what he taught him: "The greatest heroes serve their country and their people."

Now, seeing Qingyun put these teachings into practice, Qin Tianchuan felt a deep satisfaction and pride.

Use your wealth to give back to society and to help those in need. Only such wealth and glory can be passed down from generation to generation and shine forever.

At this time, Sun Hongbing, who was not far away, also had his face broken with laughter.

It may be difficult for others to do this, but for Qingyun, it is very easy.

Moreover, for him, this was a kind of feedback and support from the ally on the stage.

In fact, most of Yanhuang Group’s production bases across the country are adjacent to or located in the TOP industrial parks that they previously took over.

The property that Qingyun bought was the one developed by Shunchi.

This is equivalent to Qingyun directly taking out money, which speeds up the sales of real estate and capital recovery of Shunchi.

Of course, it’s not a free solution, they will discuss the interests involved in detail later.

However, this bought him time as he was currently fighting the Wanke system.

Preparation time and sales speed are the biggest variables that widen the gap when everyone is scrambling to seize the blank market across the country.

Emperor Yun's voice continued to echo in the venue.

"In order to solve the worries of employees, the company will set aside one percentage point of revenue each year to set up a family medical assistance fund.

This family relief fund will be used specifically to pay for nursing expenses during the employee's own and immediate family members' hospitalization, as well as the portion that is not covered by medical insurance reimbursement.

at the same time!"

Before the cheers of the employees below could be fully vented, Qing Yun raised the volume.

"At the same time! The company will enroll all its employees and their immediate family members in the rural areas in the New Rural Cooperative Medical Scheme.

After an employee has worked for three years, all of his/her immediate family members will be transferred to the urban employee medical insurance."

These words were like a spring breeze blowing through everyone's heart, making the employees feel the company's deep care for them.

The employees at the branch venue were very excited, and their applause and cheers continued.
