Chapter 614 The Birth of the King of Volume (Fourth update, please subscribe)
Blue ocean!

What is a blue ocean?
Everyone has their own opinions and choices.

When thousands of American employees like Huck were promoting Nanyang products and expanding the channels for Nanyang products across the United States on behalf of companies such as Global Trading.

In Nanyang's industrial zones, there are hundreds of thousands of factories producing a variety of goods. For these business owners, large and small, what many of them focus on is not the blue ocean, but production. After all, Nanyang is now facing a large market of hundreds of millions of people in Europe and the United States.

Therefore, working overtime in the factory has long been a common thing. Although it is already 7 o'clock in the evening, the workers in the factory with lights on are still working overtime.

In the factory yard, Sun Dechang was pacing back and forth and smoking a cigarette. Occasionally, he would look at the factory buildings aside.

Today is his second month working in this factory. When he first started working, he walked around the production workshop under the leadership of the production supervisor. Although Sun Dechang was a reporter in the past, he saw the harmonious atmosphere in the workshop. The production equipment opened my eyes. What I saw in his factory were the latest electric sewing machines, not the outdated old-style pedal machines. Moreover, the clothing production process was also a split operation, and each process had its own corresponding steps. workers to make up for the technical shortcomings - each worker is only responsible for one process.

This production method is said to have been specially researched. It is not only faster in production, but also easy to update the process. However, Sun Dechang does not know much about production matters. He only serves as an assistant to help the factory director deal with the problems in the factory. Various non-production matters.

After one month in the factory, Sun Dechang was somewhat familiar with it. The night he received his first month's salary, he had insomnia.

48.5 yuan!
He has never received such a generous salary.

In the factory, Sun Dechang also learned a lot about factory production, deepening his understanding of factory production and workers' welfare. For example, a considerable part of the pension insurance and medical insurance of Nanyang workers is the burden of the enterprise. What they talk about is nothing more than officials being so philanthropic that they spend free money to benefit workers. As for providing three meals a day, providing accommodation, and even giving out work clothes, etc., these benefits are not so much provided by the company on their own initiative. , rather it is because of the legal provisions.

That night, my wife took the initiative to get into my arms and said in a tone full of expectation.

Sun Dechang never even thought about it in the past, but that night, his wife had all kinds of imagination, mostly about the life scenes of the male and female protagonists in the movie.

One hour.

"Boss Fang, I have a suggestion. I don't know whether to say it or not."

The difference in many places is that those laws are not just written on paper, they are also strictly implemented. Even illegal enterprises are investigated and punished, and it is also regarded as the achievement of the labor department. In this case, everyone naturally does not work overtime. work overtime.

It’s only an hour!

Have your own car!

"Dad, our family can buy a car later..."

car!

What now?
Just last week, he went to the Wuling Motors dealer to have a look. The place was full of people looking at cars. He was not the only one dreaming about cars.

This also made Sun Dechang work harder, and even the people around him changed unknowingly.

Take the factory he works for, for example. It specializes in the production of children's clothing. It finally received a large order from the United States, but due to production capacity, the factory couldn't complete it at all. In fact, if possible, it would be to add one more It’s just an hourly shift.

If this is not enough, in January this year, the Ministry of Labor also issued a special decree prohibiting overtime work after eight o'clock. Otherwise, it is illegal. If an enterprise is caught working overtime, it will be severely fined.

After taking the last puff, he threw away the cigarette butt in his hand, stamped it out, and then clapped his hands again. Sun Dechang glanced at the office. As he walked towards the office, there were more than a dozen cigarette butts scattered on the ground behind him. As soon as he entered the office, he saw his boss who was settling accounts.

A salary of more than 600 yuan a year!

Walking to the opposite side of the boss, Sun Dechang said.

"You said."

"Our factory has always provided workers with three meals a day, right?" Fang Dekun looked at Sun Dechang and smiled.

"Our factory does not have "trainees", so we only have two meals, lunch and dinner."

In fact, Fang Dekun is also applying for a "trainee", but this requires solving problems such as dormitories first, and there are also restrictions on factory operations, profits, etc. Wait, it will be almost done next year.

"Yes, yes, two meals,"

Sun Dechang said. He had smoked five or six cigarettes outside before. After hesitating for a long time, he finally walked up to the boss.

"Mr. Sun, do you have any suggestions?"

Fang Dekun said with a smile that Sun Dechang's arrival saved him a lot of trouble. His factory was a small one and he was very satisfied with being able to hire a man who graduated from university.

"Well, I noticed that the lunch break in our factory is one hour, plus half an hour for dinner, so there is almost an hour and a half a day, and the workers don't have to work."

"Um,"

Nodding slightly, Fang Dekun said.

"Nearly all factories in Nanyang are like this. Nanyang is different from Tangshan. In Tangshan, you can work from the beginning of the year to the end of the year, from morning to night. No one asks, but here in Nanyang...well, their method is not It’s written on paper. We work five days a week here. It’s five days, but it’s five days. As for eight o’clock in the evening, that’s outrageous..."

When it came to the working hours in Nanyang, Fang Dekun also looked very helpless. When he was in Tangshan, he also ran a factory. It was normal to work more than ten hours a day, but it didn't make sense in Nanyang.

"Yes, yes, "885" is Nanyang. Even if the workers want to work overtime, you are not allowed to work overtime."

Sun Dechang mentioned "885". A few months ago, the newspaper said that people go to work at 8 o'clock and get off work at 8 o'clock every day, working 5 days a week. Although it seems to work 8 hours a week, don't talk about it. Compared with the sweatshops of the era, even compared with those factories in another world that work from a.m. to a.m., all day long, they are already very humane. And at pm, there are still three hours that are counted as overtime.

"Isn't that right? A while ago, a factory worked overtime and was reported. As a result, they were fined 20,000 yuan and even had to pay three times the overtime pay."

When it comes to Nanyang's crackdown on overtime, Fang Dekun simply hates it.

"Everything about Nanyang is good, but this is unsatisfactory. Mr. Sun, you have been in the factory for more than a month. Look, as long as overtime is allowed, who is not willing to work overtime?"

"That's right, boss, who thinks money hurts your hands, so..."

Sun Dechang thought for a while and said.

"So, I have a suggestion, I don't know whether to say it or not."

"You said."

"That's right, what do I think? Our lunch break is too long. We need to rest for an hour. If we change the lunch break to half an hour, and then move dinner to after get off work, then the factory will If you can work for one hour, the workers can earn more money every day, and I believe everyone will be willing to do so.”

Sun Dechang's suggestion made Boss Fang stunned, and then he continued.

"As for the amount of overtime pay, I think overtime pay should be calculated based on the length of overtime work. For an additional hour every day, the overtime pay will be increased by 20 cents. In this way, after a month, the per capita increase will be four to five yuan. The income will be increased by almost one-fifth, which also reflects the principle of more reward for more work!”

Listening to his suggestion, Fang Dekun couldn't help but start to make calculations in his mind.

Can this be done?
