National Tide 1980

"I understand, of course I understand."

The old director was the first to say, "Well, what Manager Xiao Ning said makes sense. After all, we are a socialist country, and Tan Palace is jointly run by several of our units. The principle of distribution is distribution according to work. We cannot give up to others instead." The little Japanese devils who took the capitalist road are incomparable. Manager Xiao Ning is justified in doing this. I fully agree with his starting point and fully understand the difficulties, especially in the face of complex and changing situations abroad. It makes sense. Even if there are some flaws in the work, it doesn't matter. I reiterate that Manager Xiao Ning is the hero of our Tan Gong Restaurant. There is no doubt about this. It is not easy for both Manager Xiaoning and our domestic employees to make the Tanggong branch so prosperous overseas and gain such huge profits. It is just that... the practice of giving out high bonuses is not easy. It's not impeccable. Whether it can continue to be implemented and what the amount of bonuses should be is a matter of in-depth discussion. I'm afraid we still have to wait until we return to China to discuss this before we can have a specific opinion. Manager Xiao Ning also needs to understand our difficulties.”

Deputy Director Jin of the Service Bureau also said, "Yes, yes, the Tan Palace branch can operate so successfully in Tokyo, Japan, all because of manager Xiao Ning. Originally, several of our units opened such restaurants just to make our lives easier." Be more lenient and give everyone more bonuses. Unexpectedly, with a hoe, I dug out a golden doll. Now, let alone the surplus grain, I have established a foothold in Tokyo. Who does it rely on, but it’s not our manager Xiao Ning? Frankly speaking, there is nothing wrong with the problems that Manager Xiao Ning sees and wants to solve. This is due to his superior business quality and his ability to care about the interests of domestic employees, which is enough to prove that his ideological consciousness is very high and worthy. The trust and reliance of several of our investors. In fact, I personally think that the disparity in income between Chinese and Japanese employees will affect morale. However, this issue is not that simple. It involves policy direction and the impact is too wide. It’s a bit ahead of its time, so whether it can be sustained as a long-term solution may not be decided at once. The importance of this should be clear to all of us here, right?”

The two leaders of the inspection team immediately set the tone.

To put it bluntly, the old principal and Director Jin took the initiative to take a stand and cleared Ning Weimin's responsibility for this matter in person.

But there is one problem that cannot be solved.

This matter was so serious that it affected everyone, and neither of them had the guts to give Ning Weimin a pass for privately allocating high bonuses.

After all, Ning Weimin gave too much money to his subordinates, to the point where it could make people suddenly rich.

There are too many people who are jealous of these domestic workers who go abroad to work and bring back huge sums of money. It is not an exaggeration to say that the crowd is excited and they are attacking them.

And this kind of pressure is from top to bottom. It can be said that anyone who has not received the benefits does not want to see this happen again.

That’s right!

Let some people get rich first, drive most areas, and then achieve common prosperity!

This is a national policy set by a great man, and no one can object to it.

But no matter how reasonable it is, it cannot solve the narrow-mindedness and selfishness of people's hearts.

Especially after living under a planned economy for a long time, Chinese citizens have long been accustomed to the fact that everyone is the same.

They are dissatisfied with a life that lacks changes and opportunities, but few people are willing to let others get rich before them and become the first to gain wealth and freedom.

So even though I was willing to support Ning Weimin from the bottom of my heart, I also understood that what he was doing was right, and I even sympathized with the situation that he had no choice but to do.

But neither the director nor Deputy Director Jin dared to affirm all of Ning Weimin's actions in public without reservation.

Because they understand better the power of opposition, the fear of people's words, and the danger of being outnumbered. No one wants to become a tragic figure like Wang Anshi.

They can't stand clearly on the opposite side of the majority of people, right?

You have to leave yourself some room for maneuver so that you can deal with this matter conveniently.

Even if they go back to appease those who have objections, they can't guarantee what specific results they can achieve.

This is also their difficulty.

Needless to say, everyone else naturally echoed and nodded frequently to what the director and director said.

Logically speaking, Ning Weimin should have just given up at this point.

After all, his hidden dangers have been resolved, and he will definitely not be held responsible for this anymore.

At this time, there is no need to show off your personality or stand out!

There is no need to smash other people’s friendly arrangements to pieces!

But in fact, he chose to push his limits.

It's not because he is so stupid that he doesn't know the seriousness of this matter, doesn't understand the many concerns of the two leaders, and doesn't care about others' contempt.

It's because in order to solve the problem, the means he prepared are not just miserable, but he also has constructive solutions.

"Yes, the leaders should go back and study and discuss. After all, this is a major issue that concerns whether our Tan Gong Restaurant can develop smoothly overseas. If all factors are not fully considered, it will be difficult to obtain A real solution.”

Ning Weimin first affirmed the words of the two leaders, and then said, "However, I personally have some additional opinions for the leaders to refer to. Although I dare not say that the problem will be solved once and for all, at least it can keep the situation from collapsing for the time being. To ensure the development of Tan Palace, I also hope that all the leaders here will give you advice to see if it is feasible.”

The principal and Deputy Director Jin looked at each other, somewhat stunned.

"you say."

"The two leaders just said that the impact is too wide. I also understand the complexity of this matter. Don't worry about quantity but inequality. This problem is the real problem of this matter. But it is simple and can be summarized in one sentence. But because this situation exists in multiple dimensions, it is very difficult to solve. For example, the huge income gap exists not only between Chinese and Japanese employees, but also between our domestic employees and those from abroad. . It is also difficult to understand this issue from the perspective of Tan Palace and our several investment units. I can understand the thinking of most people. It is obvious that everyone is tied to the same boat and is working towards the same goal. , when the benefits can be divided, we can't just focus on the employees who go abroad and ignore others? This is also a question I have been thinking about. How can we strive for a relatively fair distribution method? Maintain the unity of our community of common interests..."

Ning Weimin's words went straight to the core issue without hesitation, proving that he had indeed considered it thoroughly and was confident.

Now, not only the principal and Deputy Director Jin were puzzled, but other members of the inspection team also became interested, no longer perfunctory, and became focused.

You know, the task of cutting and dividing the cake has always been a headache.

Even when the work unit distributes oranges, you still feel that your own is small and others are too big, let alone the distribution of real money and silver benefits.

No one could imagine what Ning Weimin would do to achieve this.

Director Li, who always lost his temper, couldn't help but interjected, "Of course it would be good, but it would be too difficult. Manager Ning, you just said that this problem exists not only for domestic employees and foreign workers. , and how is this possible to coordinate the conflicts between the internal affairs of Tan Palace and the investment units?”

Ning Weimin just smiled slightly at Director Li's question.

"...Actually, for the employees within Tan Palace, the solution is relatively simple. Just job rotation is enough, domestic and foreign, everyone changes. Anyway, Japan's working visa is only three years, three years for you and three years for me , it is enough to give due consideration to qualifications and merit. The only difficulty is that we currently have only one store in Tokyo and there are not enough positions, so the way to solve the problem is to expand our business scope and open branches. As long as there are enough overseas branches, everyone can take advantage of it, which will not only calm public anger, but also unite people's hearts and make everyone more motivated, right?"

Don't say it, this is true. When everyone heard it, many people couldn't help but nod.

Even Director Li felt reassured and basically agreed with this point of view.

"Well, that seems to be the case. Manager Ning, I really belong to you. You are afraid that we all will not agree with you opening a branch, so you always take the opportunity to analyze the interests of all of us. I understand, domestic The conflict of interests of foreign workers must be resolved by opening a branch, and the quota of overseas inspections for us investment units must also depend on opening a branch. In this case, I will do what you want, I, Lao Li, agree with my hands. "

However, he was not a fool. He was obedient and then asked, "Hey, besides this measure, Manager Ning, do you have any other ideas? You seemed to have said just now that this is just a matter between Tan Palace's internal employees and overseas employees." The solution in time is relatively simple. The more complicated one must be to resolve the conflict between the interests of Tan Palace and the investors..."

"Yes, what Director Li said is that it is not so easy to resolve the conflict between the interests of Tan Palace and investors." Ning Weimin was very happy to have such a supportive person as Director Li, "I think that even if there are quotas for overseas inspections, we can Rotation may not be enough to balance the relationship between all parties, because compared with the direct profits of these employees who go abroad, the leaders of our investment units will still suffer a loss if they only go abroad for a few days, so we have to find other ways. , until a balance is reached.”

“How can we achieve this balance?”

A cadre from the Temple of Heaven Park couldn't bear his curiosity anymore and interrupted to ask.

"Give me money!"

Ning Weimin just said two simple words, but the effect was amazing.

Now the scope of you looking at me and me looking at you has expanded to the entire inspection team, and almost everyone is not calm anymore.

"What? Manager Ning means... to pay directly? Like we treat those people who go abroad from Tan Palace? We also have a share?"

Some people suspect that there is something wrong with their ears and need to confirm it in person.

Ning Weimin responded without hesitation, "Yes, rewards are based on merit and distributed according to work. The hard work of overseas personnel needs bonuses, and of course the various supports from investment units. The success of Tan Palace cannot be separated from everyone's efforts." Contribution, since everyone has contributed and made money, why can only front-line personnel get the money? Of course, everyone has a share, although it is impossible to cover everyone, but at least the cadres with positions. They should have a share. Otherwise, what’s the point of making money?”

"However, the theory is correct, but there is no such system. It is absolutely impossible for higher-level units to approve this kind of thing. This is called privately dividing collective property and using power for personal gain. And doing this is too eye-catching, right? Even the district government If we don’t ask, the masses won’t agree.” Someone raised the most realistic difficulty.

However, regarding this issue, Ning Weimin had his own considerations when he first decided to do this, and he was not asked.

"The road is blocked, so we can make a slight detour. It doesn't necessarily violate the system. Please don't forget that the bonuses for the employees of Tan Palace are purely from my personal commission. Just like what we agreed in the contract Like that, I should get a 5% commission, which works out to 22.5 million yen. The ownership of this money belongs to me personally. In the end, I will pay this money as a bonus, which should be the case. It’s my personal gift. Didn’t our catering and retail industries in Beijing start contracting early? This doesn’t violate the policy.”

Ning Weimin's words were sonorous and powerful, like a big bell that struck everyone's heart, finally making everyone clearly notice the crucial point - he used his own commission to pay bonuses to employees.

Needless to say, this is fundamentally different from using public funds to give bonuses to everyone.

Although the amount of commission is huge, it far exceeds everyone’s awareness.

Speaking of which, whether Ning Weimin should have taken so much commission originally, when it came time to divide the money, it should have made the grassroots cadres of several investment units jealous and caused trouble, and they obstructed a lot of things.

But now this personal wealth, which legally belonged to Ning Weimin, was taken out by him and distributed to the employees of Tan Palace without telling him. Instead, it became the most likely way to solve the real problem.

Who could have imagined this?

Things in this world are so magical.

So the members of the expedition team who could barely maintain their composure seemed to have suddenly discovered a new world.

I couldn't help but started talking about it.

But that's not all, Ning Weimin hasn't finished speaking yet.

Not caring about the chaos that had already begun, he actually poured another bucket of oil on the already burning fire.

"One more thing I can tell you is that this year I received more than 20 million yen in commission, which is only based on eight months of operating income. Since the operation of Ginza Danmiya is gradually on the right track, even if I do not open a branch this year, I I am also sure to double the profit of the Tokyo branch. In other words, after this year, at least according to the contract, I should receive a commission of 40 to 50 million yen. To be honest, when we signed this agreement, none of us had any idea. I thought that Tan Gong Restaurant could make so much money by opening a branch in Tokyo. Even I didn't expect that it could actually make such a big profit. So this amount of money is a bit scary at the moment, thinking about what the big guys are doing to me. It's a bit embarrassing for me to keep all the support and help in my pocket. Now that I'm facing this difficult problem, let's just share it with everyone. Danmiya is working hard in Tokyo. The employees get paid, and the investment unit doesn't suffer. As for me, it doesn't really matter. As long as everyone agrees, we can do this without violating the system, fulfilling the business contract, and it is also conducive to everyone's unity. Isn’t everyone happy? If one day, the scale of the system is enlarged enough to solve the problems we are currently facing, then we will discuss what to do again. What I mean is to make every effort to ensure the development and expansion of Tan Palace. For other things, as long as everyone has a tacit understanding and can stay united, time is enough for the time being."

I heard that Ning Weimin was actually willing to make sacrifices for himself and others, and he also gave up such a huge amount of money.

Everyone could no longer control their emotions, and exploded with a "buzz" sound.

"Manager Ning, can you really guarantee that we will achieve so much profit this year?"

"Manager Ning, are you really willing to share the commission with everyone when the time comes?"

"Manager Ning, this is all your money, don't you feel bad at all?"

"Manager Ning, I support you! Your suggestion is so admirable..."
