Rekindle 2003

Chapter 868: Strengthen the investigation of beautiful female employees
Although he knew that Houpu would win the final victory, Chen Yue had no idea that there would be such a thrilling process in the middle. He asked anxiously, "Then what?"

Qing Yun wiped his dry lips and said helplessly, "Of course, Houpu suffered a head-on blow.

Zhengda's price per kilogram for each type of feed is 1 yuan lower than that of Houpu, and the sales rebate is 1 point higher."

Chen Yue was stunned. "How did Houpu win in the end? Didn't you say it was the prelude to the final battle?"

Yun Di did not rush to answer her question. He stood up and walked over to take the water and fruit plate handed to him by Yang Bingnan.

However, Yang Bingnan's whisper made him frown.

After thinking for a moment, he raised his eyebrows and smiled.

"It's okay, let them wait."

After saying this, Qing Yun turned around, returned to the reef, stuffed a few grapes into Mr. Chen's mouth, and continued the previous topic.
"So, this is the prologue. This is an encounter between the two sides in the southern market, and Houpu was defeated miserably in this battle.

Instead, they were counterattacked by Zhengda and reached the four provinces of Shanhe, and a large backlog was formed in just two months. "

Chen Yue frowned and asked uncertainly, "So... seeing that the inventory was overstocked, Houpu just started fighting? In other words, originally, Houpu didn't plan to fight so soon?"

Qingyun nodded and said with a playful look on his face, "Manman's father said that the price reduction was just a tentative move. At that time, Houpu's outlets in the southern provinces had not yet been fully established.

At the time, they were just thinking about using low prices to create a gimmick, and since the quantity was small, the loss wouldn’t be much.

Later, they found something was wrong and immediately launched a decisive counterattack, using their inventory as ammunition, and dumping products crazily in the South...

……

In the end, Houpu defeated Zhengda with its financial strength.”

Chen Yue was delighted to hear this. The latter part of the story was the business war model she was familiar with. As for the former...

I can only say that it’s a good thing that Manyan’s father and his brothers are so courageous.

Standing in the position of the actual second-in-command of the Yanhuang Group at this time, Chen Yue also saw clearly how terrifying the four brothers of Qin Manyan's father were.

It is clearly just a private enterprise established in China in the 90s, but it has billions of cash withdrawal facilities in its hands and is not ready to take action. This kind of strategic determination is not something that ordinary people can have.

Yun Di shrugged his shoulders and continued, "It was not until a few months later when the consultant of Zhengda Company jumped to Houpu that Manman's father understood why he had suffered a complete defeat in that encounter.

Throughout the decisive battle, Houpu suffered a huge loss of 17 billion. It didn’t have to lose so much. You know, this is national policy.”

Chen Yue was stunned for a few seconds after hearing this.

Looking back now, she understood.

The key to Houpu's ability to hold on and counterattack to win was not Houpu's hard power, but the word "national policy" from the youngest brother's mouth.

She heard Guo Jing say in casual conversation that 6 kilograms of feed produces one kilogram of beef, 4 kilograms of feed produces one kilogram of pork, and 1 kilogram of feed produces one kilogram of chicken.

If the above data is converted into food, the demand needs to be multiplied by 2.

When she first heard it, she just thought, no wonder the chicken tastes so bad!
But now it seems that this grain-feed conversion rate has destined the feed industry to be a national industry.

However, the Qin family has absolutely no experience in utilizing the power of the country. Just like the youngest member at this moment, they use the country as a backing but do not use the country's power to develop.

This is the most terrible.

Because the trump card is there to deter.

Any company competing with Houpu must think clearly about what to do if Tianpai is exposed?
Therefore, the international giant Charoen Pokphand Group, which sponsored the central television station's "Charoen Pokphand Variety Show", had no choice but to make peace and let Houpu buy out their inventory at a fair price. Its own agricultural sector retreated from the feed industry to the livestock, food, and catering industries, allowing domestic companies such as Houpu to block their source.

After figuring it all out, Chen Yue felt a chill down his spine.

This is because the Houpu Group has the advantages of "the right time, the right place and the right people", which enabled it to turn defeat into victory.

If any other company were to be played like this, even if it didn’t die, it would at least be badly hurt. How could it have any chance of turning defeat into victory?

Qing Yun smacked his lips, feeling a little urge to smoke, but this environment was obviously not suitable for smoking, so he could only endure it.

He spread his hands and continued, "Yueyue, I just said so much, but what happened to Houpu is not an isolated case.

In the many stories we've seen about spy attacks, we've found that disloyal employees are most likely to turn into spies.

The shock they bring to the company is also what managers worry about the most.

It is no secret that disloyal employees steal corporate secrets, but even if all business leaders know that it is necessary to guard against disloyal employees, they cannot completely protect against employees who steal with malicious intent.

What you just said makes sense. In fact, even companies with very strict systems in the world cannot completely prevent their employees from stealing secrets.

Just this June, an employee of Microsoft named Richard Gregg was arrested. He purchased and resold software worth more than 6 million US dollars at a low price through Microsoft's internal purchasing system, and made the difference in profit for himself.

Two years ago, many e-mail users who were set as "administrators" received an email selling a complete creative plan from Ogilvy for 6000 yuan, and many people had already purchased the package. At the same time as the Ogilvy incident, in China, Digital China, led by Guo Wei, published its annual strategic plan on Tianya, which anyone could download.

Documents such as the "Netcom Operation and Maintenance Support System" and "Beijing Telecom Public IP Network Integration Engineering Specifications" of telecommunications solution provider AsiaInfo were once snapped up in the Zhongguancun market. Any one of these solutions is worth tens of millions.

Both incidents were committed by internal employees.

Moreover, employees who leave a company out of dissatisfaction are more terrifying than those who just do some petty theft.

What is even more terrifying than these are the employees who are about to leave.

Because for whatever reason, they want to be able to get the necessary resources for their future work.”

At this point, he curled his lips helplessly, "In fact, it has become a habit for former employees to take some information from their original company through various means. Of course, this information is only for future work convenience, not for direct sale."

But at this point, he smiled and said, "But they can sell them at any time, and they may even upload them to the Internet for sharing.

This is what happened to Guo Wei.

Guo Wei is not a fool. He actually does a good job of internal control, but it is difficult to guard against a thief within the family.

That employee applied for two hours of overtime after get off work. Two hours later, he swiped the door card and the computer system showed that he had left.

But in reality, employees can enter and exit the company through the unlocked door leading to the bathroom without leaving any evidence of overstaying in the company.

So, he found the information he needed on his colleague's computer as quickly as possible, put it in a shared folder that was not easily found, and took it away from the company the next day.

After mastering the technical secrets of the company's key software, two engineers from Chuangwei Company became obsessed with money and forgot their confidentiality commitment. They used pseudonyms to invest in other companies with the technical secrets and developed similar products. Two years ago, the Shannan District Court of Pengcheng City made a first-instance judgment on this case of infringement of Chuangwei Company's trade secrets and sentenced them for the crime of infringing trade secrets.

But what’s the point? It doesn’t help! The key technology has been leaked, and you can see the decline of Skyworth in recent years.”

Chen Yue's face turned pale when he heard this, "Youngest brother, how can we make our employees loyal?"

Emperor Yun smiled and shook his finger, "Why do you ask for loyalty?"

In the confused eyes of Mr. Chen, Qing Yun said calmly, "I will not ask employees to be loyal, or I will not force employees to be loyal."

At this point, he smiled and said, "Yueyue, remember, you are the boss's wife. You can shout the slogan 'loyalty to the company' every day, but don't trust the loyalty of your employees.

Because... the word "loyalty" is funny. I'm not the emperor, and I can't chop off their heads. Why should they be loyal to me? It doesn't make sense.

They work for me and I pay them, and it's not an equal exchange. It's me who exploits their surplus value, and they live in this world with the money. It's a clear deal.

So, don't expect any employee loyalty or disloyalty issues.

Rather, first, we must ensure that our employees do not have the motivation to betray us, and second, we must ensure that our employees do not have the means to betray us.”

Qing Yun shook his head and continued, "For employees who are about to leave, the common practice of multinational companies is to freeze all of their rights in the company before notifying them of their resignation.

On this point, we have to say that our old rival, Fantasy Group, was very professional in their layoffs in March this year, and they were not at all amateur like our predecessor TOP.

Before the resigned employee knew he was fired, Fantasy Group blocked his ID on the company's local area network, so the employee could not access the company's network to obtain any information.

We should learn from them that once a motion is made, we should not give people time to react.”

Chen Yue flicked his earlobe with her finger, her face tangled, "But the system is to manage those employees who abide by the system.

The reason why the inner traitor is called a traitor is that he naturally does not take those systems seriously.

They will also cleverly exploit system flaws and weak confidentiality awareness among employees to achieve their own goals.”

Qing Yun sighed helplessly upon hearing this, "As a passive defense company, we can only strengthen the management of the system.

The protection of trade secrets depends on technology for 30% and management for 70%. Establishing a strict and easy-to-operate management system is the basis for reducing security issues.

Use third-party forces to avoid factors such as personal relationships, face, and power, and objectively and impartially observe the daily work status of corporate employees, discover clues of unreasonableness and violations at any time, and understand the dynamics of employees based on this.

At the same time, the life information of key personnel is collected and analyzed to understand their living environment, basic rules, etc. If it is found that they maintain abnormal contact with competing companies, the company will naturally be vigilant. At the same time, the company's confidential information in their possession must be managed immediately, so as to avoid the risk turning into a crisis.

This is why I want to build the Dark Guard.

Prevention is necessary, but the best strategy is to prevent employees from having the intention to rebel.

Regarding this, please make arrangements after you return. Have Guo Jing lead a team and have all senior management including the heads of second-tier subsidiaries and the human resources department visit Desheng Mansion's Suzhou headquarters to inspect their human resources management situation.

I have already contacted Uncle Qin Manyan about this matter. He is ready to receive you at any time. Just ask Brother Xiangyu to arrange a time."

After hearing this, Chen Yue was stunned. "What the hell? Desheng Mansion? Why does it sound so familiar?"
