Chapter 878 Kyushu's Blessings (Second Update, Please Subscribe)
As the first enterprise in Kyushu to introduce the advanced technology of "one dollar shirt", Shengshi Clothing Company has become the largest clothing company in Kyushu. It not only has a factory in Kyushu, but also a branch in Hiroshima. The branch in Japan implements the same management model as the head office in Kyushu.

In fact, the factory's management model is very simple. As a result of the experience gained in Mindanao, after returning to Kyushu from Mindanao, Zheng Hanjie introduced the militarized management model of the Mindanao factory into the factory.

As the owner of the business, Sun Dehui was a soldier himself, so he naturally agreed with the military management model. He even quickly made a military management plan based on the actual situation of Jiuzhou.

"Get up at 6:00 in the morning, tidy up the house and hygiene, have breakfast at 6:20, enter the workshop at 6:40, start work at 7:00, have lunch at 12:00, start work at 1:00 in the afternoon, get off work at 6:00 in the afternoon, finish lunch at 6:30 in the afternoon, free time, start work at 7:00 in the evening, finish at 11:30 in the evening, turn off the lights at 12:00..."

This militarized management plan replaces training tasks with production line work. It uses the military's management methods, management models and management experience as a reference and combines them with modern enterprise management, ultimately forming a special enterprise management model.

Although the militarized management of enterprises originated in Southeast Asia, it was developed and even taken to the extreme in factories in Kyushu, Mindanao, Malaya, Surabaya and other places.

It turns out that as long as the workers are poor enough, they will definitely adapt to this militarized management in order to support their families.

Of course, some people cannot adapt, so people leave these factories every day. For a large company like Shengshi Company with more than 10,000 employees, people leave every day and workers are recruited every day.

It is for this reason that Koji Narita chose Shengshi as his "undercover" factory. However, although he has come to Kyushu, he cannot enter the factory undercover with an American passport.

After waiting in the hotel for a few days, Narita Koji finally met Harada. When the two met, Narita Koji asked:

"Harada-kun, how are you preparing?"

"Everything is ready."

Taro Harada took out an ID card from his pocket and said:
"This is the employment certificate I bought on the black market. His name is Kojima Chuji. You can use his identity to enter the factory!"

Narita Koji looked at the photo on the ID and said:
"I don't look like the person in the photo at all!"

"It doesn't matter if it doesn't look like that. This is Kyushu. There are many Japanese who sneaked here to work illegally. They all bought other people's employment certificates on the black market..."

Then he explained what a "employment certificate" is. The employment certificate is a special economic stimulus. Kyushu's economy is developing rapidly, which has led to a shortage of labor. In order to solve the problem of labor shortage, certificates are issued to Japanese people. With this certificate, they can enter the factory to work within the validity period of the certificate. Because there are always people sneaking into Kyushu, a black market for "employment certificates" naturally emerged.

"It doesn't matter whether the photo looks like the real person or not. The recruiters won't check it carefully. After all, the factories here always need workers."

Next, the two began to exchange information, and Harada told Narita Koji what he knew. In fact, he didn't know much about the factory, and he just asked around.

"By the way, there's one more thing!"

Harada said solemnly;
"I asked other people who have worked in factories, and they all said that those factories often require overtime! This may be more difficult."

"Overtime?" Narita Koji curled his lips in disdain and continued:

"Harada-kun, when I was in the United States, the Americans called me a "workaholic"!"

If it weren't for the overtime work, how could Narita have managed to gain a foothold in the New York Times?

When he was at the newspaper, he dominated his American colleagues.

It's just overtime!

What's the big deal?
……

Just as Harada said, the factory needs workers. They didn't even look at Narita's "employment certificate". It seems that there are unknown unspoken rules here.

On that day, Koji Narita began his "undercover" career.

He and other new workers were taken to a dormitory for ten people. The facilities in the dormitory were rather simple, with nothing but beds and lockers.

The washroom and toilet are shared, which is very bad news for Koji Narita.

But in order to complete the undercover investigation, Koji Narita had no choice but to adapt to the local customs and force himself to get used to it all.

Among the ten people in the dormitory, nine are new employees and the other is an old employee, who is their squad leader.

As an old man in the factory, the team leader naturally became the leader of these ten people.

"You will start training tomorrow. During the training period, you will be paid as normal." The squad leader paused and continued:

"Our factory implements military management, and there are strict requirements for working hours. Tomorrow is the first day, and you can't be late. The training starts at 8 o'clock, and you must be in the training workshop before 7:30."

"Squad leader, what is militarized management?" someone asked.

"Military management is similar to the military. In short, you just have to obey orders and follow instructions. You have to do whatever you are told to do! The details will be explained to you during the training."

This may not seem like a big deal, just simple training.

"Also, you should try your best to speak Chinese. Only if you speak Chinese well, you will have a chance to become a class monitor or even a line leader in the future!"

The squad leader said earnestly, "It's even possible to settle here in the future."

……

A week later, after completing the new worker training, Koji Narita officially started working.

Early in the morning, after finishing his breakfast, Narita Koji looked at the clock on the wall. It was almost six forty!
"Oh no, we're going to be late!"

Narita Koji quickly stood up and ran towards the workshop. Along the way, he met several co-workers who also trotted into the workshop like him.

"Hurry, Xiaodao, hurry up, the director will be here soon!"

The squad leader shouted at Narita Koji.

Narita Koji immediately ran over. At this time, the line leader of the production line where he was working had already arrived. Noticing that Narita Koji was a little late, a trace of dissatisfaction appeared on his face.
The clock on the wall showed that the time was six forty.

"Stand at attention! Look to the left..."

Like everyone else, Narita followed the line leader's orders, lined up and kept in line. All this gave Narita the illusion that he was back in the army.

During the war, he had served in the army, fighting the Germans in Italy, and was naturally adapted to this militarized life.

"Watch your position carefully, front, back, left, and right."

When the workshop director came, the line leader repeatedly checked their positions. After the workshop director arrived, the routine morning meeting began immediately.

"Look ahead, take a break."

Before the morning meeting started, the workshop director led everyone in shouting slogans.

The workshop director said.

"Hello everyone."

Narita Koji shouted in unison, just like everyone else:

"Good! Very good! It can be better!"

He had learned these slogans during the training in the past few days. He heard that this was advanced experience learned from factories in Southeast Asia.

Who knows?

But there is no sweatshop there. Narita Koji has too many questions in his mind.

"Report the count."

As soon as the workshop director finished speaking, everyone in the workshop began to count in unison.
The workshop director then began a brief speech and then said.

"Our slogan is!"

“Sail against the current, if you don’t advance, you will retreat!”

Then the director led everyone to shout seven or eight slogans, and then said,

"This is the end of our preparations for today, good!"

"Very good! It can be better!"

The crowd applauded three times in succession.

They said we were supposed to start work at 7 o'clock, but I arrived at 6:45, which was already late. For the next ten minutes, I was lectured and shouted slogans by the director and the line leader.

Then Koji Narita started his day's work.

The work on the garment assembly line is boring and tedious, and as a new employee, Narita also does the simplest job, which is sewing buttons.

It is to sew small buttons on clothes. This is Koji Narita's job. This job looks simple, but it is extremely boring.

Behind Narita Koji, the line leaders kept patrolling back and forth, watching everyone like police dogs, and if anyone was lazy, they would immediately issue a warning, and if it happened more than three times, they would be fined.

The assembly line was running non-stop for a whole day, and Narita Koji was working without a break, from 7am to 12pm. Even going to the toilet was set at a certain time. Narita was fined for going to the toilet overtime! Even if you go to the toilet without registering, you will also be fined.

At the end of the day, Narita Koji didn't even know how he had gotten through the day...
