Rebirth of the Industrial Tycoon

In the workshop, the new eccentric structure has been successfully rolled off the assembly line.

Not far away, a group of leading cadres of the Fukang Project applauded one after another, and even those in charge of propaganda took pictures next to them as souvenirs.

However, after applauding and applauding, everyone has different thoughts.

The level of the R\u0026D department has obviously exceeded everyone's expectations. The project that originally seemed to take a long time to produce results can be easily solved by the R\u0026D department in a few days. Compared with the previous technical department, it is a world of difference.

The R\u0026D department has achieved results so quickly, which is also a mixed blessing for General Manager Zhang Tao.

The joy is that the road roller has finally been successfully developed, and the business of Fukang Engineering can be improved to a higher level; the worry is that the newly established R\u0026D department has no old subordinates in it, and it has no relationship with itself.

In this regard, Zhang Tao's control over the Fukang project has weakened.

"Fortunately, it's just the R\u0026D department!" Zhang Tao let out a sigh of relief.

Zhang Tao feels that compared with the R\u0026D department, the production and sales departments are more important.

If the production or sales department was also changed by Li Weidong, then Zhang Tao would be really anxious.

Li Weidong looked at Zhang Tao next to him with a half-smile, as if he had guessed what he was thinking.

In Li Weidong's view, the R\u0026D team is the most difficult to build, compared with the production management and sales teams are much easier.

The core of production management in the manufacturing industry is a standardized system. As long as the production system is reasonable and implemented in place, the production of the enterprise can proceed smoothly.

For example, the rise of Japan's manufacturing industry relies on the construction of a standardized production system, rather than the "artisan spirit".

The Japanese are good at obeying their superiors and have a rigid character, so they can strictly implement the production system, which makes Japanese companies beat European and American companies and successfully stand out in the world industrial chain.

The so-called "craftsman spirit" in Japan, in the era of underdeveloped information, can still fool the people of other countries, but after entering the Internet era, various fraud scandals exposed in the Japanese manufacturing industry have also broken the "craftsman spirit". achievement.

The kind of opening a store that only makes one product, passed down from the grandfather to the great-grandson, was once boasted by the public as the representative of the "craftsman spirit".

But this kind of family guards a store for generations,

Is it not a kind of "lying flat"!

If the spirit of craftsmanship is to be strictly adhered to, then Sakichi Toyoda should follow his father's business as a carpenter instead of opening a textile factory;

His son Kiichiro Toyoda should also continue to run a textile factory instead of starting Toyota.

Obviously, if there is a better choice, who would go to "inherit the father's business", a family guarding a shop for generations to live.

Although Japan's "artisan spirit" is false propaganda, Japan's corporate management methods are real. At least in the 1980s and 1990s, it belonged to the world's advanced level.

In terms of enterprise management system, it also happens to be the weakness of Chinese enterprises.

In the 1980s and 1990s, many Chinese enterprise managers were from state-owned enterprises, and they all experienced the era of planned economy. Their enterprise management methods were also inherited from the past era of planned economy. For modern enterprise management under the market economy, the same is true. Cross the river by feeling the stones.

However, this group of enterprise managers also has advantages, one is long-term management experience, and the other is the personal connections accumulated over the years.

In China at that time, business managers who possessed these two points could eat well. After all, no one knows modern business management. Those with experience and connections can certainly stand out among many managers and be better.

However, in the production of modern manufacturing, management experience and personal connections are not important. What is important is to formulate a sound and reasonable system, and all production steps are carried out in accordance with the process.

For example, Foxconn has hundreds of thousands of people in a factory area. How can they manage so many people by relying solely on the experience and connections of managers! A complete system that really works, and each employee performs his own duties, so as to ensure the normal operation of the factory.

Enterprise managers who have come from the era of planned economy obviously do not understand something.

However, Li Weidong is a serious MBA student and has experience in business management. Naturally, he is very familiar with using systems to manage enterprises.

If Li Weidong wants to make a big change in the production department of Fukang Engineering, the management is not the key, and the improvement of the system and production system is the core.

As for reshuffling the sales department, that's easier.

The most important thing in sales is the commission. As long as the money is in place, the salesperson can achieve no bottom line!

Moreover, the threshold for sales is very low. If you have two legs and a mouth, you can be a sales person. Of course, whether you can sell something is another matter.

Therefore, the sales team is the easiest part of an enterprise to form, and it is also the easiest part to change jobs.

Li Weidong is the boss of Fukang Engineering and holds the financial power of Fukang Engineering, so he only needs to use his brains in terms of sales commissions to change the sales department.

In contrast, the R\u0026D department cannot be established by formulating a few systems, nor can it produce results with money. The core of research and development is people. If people are not good, no kind of research and development can be done.

...

Looking at the eccentric structure that successfully went offline, Liu Han, the technical director, felt a chill.

The level of the R\u0026D department is so high, then he, the technical director, should not expect to go back to the office. In the next days, I am afraid that he will stay in the workshop as a maintenance worker.

Liu Han was naturally unwilling. He wondered what he should do to escape from the first-line workshop as soon as possible.

At this time, several other middle-level cadres not far away were whispering about the R\u0026D department.

"Every one of the newly recruited college students is assigned a suite, do you know this?" It was the Director of General Affairs who was speaking, and he was in charge of the assignment.

"Aren't all the new employees living in dormitories?" someone next to him asked.

"These more than a dozen college students originally lived in the dormitory temporarily, but after the successful development of the eccentric structure, the chairman specially approved it, and each person was allocated a suite!"

The Director of General Affairs paused, and then said, "In addition to this house, the new Dr. Chen also gave him a Santana, which was also signed and approved by the chairman himself!"

"People can make the eccentric structure in more than 20 days, and it is normal to match the car with the house. Didn't the technical department have done it for several months before. Just the money spent, you can buy several Santana! ' said another.

When these words reached Liu Han's ears, his face suddenly became a little uneasy.

However, another person said: "Not only that, the people in the scientific research department will be paid double salary this month, which is regarded as a bonus for the successful development of the eccentric structure!"

This time it is the financial director who is in charge of the salary payment.

"Is it double salary this month, or is it always double salary?" Someone next to him asked.

"How is it possible that it has always been double salary, just this month! However, the salary of those college students in the scientific research department is high enough, not less than our factory leaders." The financial director replied.

Not far away, Liu Han pouted angrily, thinking to himself why I didn't have a double salary at that time!

Someone went on to ask: "I heard that Dr. Chen's salary is 30,000 yuan a month, is it true?"

"Really!" The chief financial officer nodded: "What he earns in a month is more than our salary for several years!"

"After all, the doctor came from Hong Kong Island. It's natural to earn more money. The salary on Hong Kong Island is already high. If we give less, people will not come." The man responded.

If it is a mainland doctor who receives 30,000 yuan a month, many people will probably be unconvinced, but Chen Yonghua is a foreign monk, and his monthly salary of 30,000 yuan will at most attract envious eyes.

From another point of view, if Chen Yonghua's salary is not high enough, how can he be worthy of the status of "foreign monk".

The Director of General Affairs then asked: "Speaking of wages, the fifteenth of this month seems to be a weekend, right? Banks are not open on weekends, so wages will have to be collected on the sixteenth?"

"You don't have to wait for the 16th, the salary will be paid on the 13th." The director of finance continued; "The chairman said that the double salary of the scientific research department should be paid as soon as possible, so this month's salary will be paid on the 13th in advance. !"

Even Liu Han showed a happy expression when he learned that the salary was paid two days earlier this month.

...

Early in the morning on the 13th, Liu Han happily went to the cashier's room to collect his salary.

You may not be active in other things, but things like getting wages must be at the forefront.

The accountant handed over the payslip, asked Liu Han to sign it, and then began to count the money.

Liu Han looked at the numbers on the payslip, but stopped writing.

"Is my salary wrong? Why is it only 615 yuan?" Liu Han asked.

"Yes, it's 615!" the accountant replied.

"Impossible, my salary used to be 785 yuan!" Liu Han immediately retorted.

The accountant replied: "The basic salary has not changed, but the bonus of the technical department has dropped by 170 yuan this month."

"Why? Why deduct my bonus!" Liu Han said with dissatisfaction, "Call your director!"

The accountant had no choice but to call the chief financial officer and hand it to Liu Han.

"Hey, it's Director Liu, are you asking about the 170 yuan less bonus? That's right, before your technical department was in charge of research and development, the so-called more work, more reward, the bonus will naturally be higher, but now you guys The technical department is no longer in charge of research and development, so the bonus is reduced."

"Why? Although we are no longer in charge of research and development, but it's not that we haven't worked, why should we deduct our bonus!" Liu Hanman said in dissatisfaction.

"Although you have done a lot of work, your technical department's main job now is to repair equipment in the workshop, so the bonus is paid according to the workshop's standards. Naturally, it is better to spend more time on research and development."

The financial director paused for a while, then continued: "Director Liu, you should be thankful that you didn't deduct your basic salary. It is said that the basic salary is not high for positions with low technical content, such as cleaning and cleaning in the factory. Doorman, just make more money?"

"What do you mean, we should get the same basic salary as the workshop workers?" Liu Han said angrily.

"The leader originally had this idea, but considering that you have no credit and hard work all these years, you still retain your basic salary." The chief financial officer replied.

"Which leader said that?" Liu Han immediately asked.

"Of course it's the chairman. Regarding salary, other leaders can't make decisions, it's all decided by the chairman!" the chief financial officer replied.

...

That night, Liu Han went to Zhang Tao again for help.

Zhang Tao sighed helplessly: "Our salary system has been set a long time ago. If you are still in charge of research and development, I can still find a way to help you. But your technical department is mainly staying in the workshop. The workshop's standard bonus is also in accordance with the system!"

"But we are the technical department after all!" Liu Han said with a sad face.

"You also know that you are in the technical department! Why don't you see you solve technical problems?" Zhang Tao snorted coldly and continued, "Just because you are in the technical department, the basic salary has not changed. I can't even get it for six hundred yuan!"

"Director, I've been with you for so many years, you can't ignore us!" Liu Han then pleaded.

"How do you ask me to help you? Raise your bonus back? But you have to show some work performance! Only then can I explain it to the factory. Like the R\u0026D department, make an eccentric structure and pay double salary this month. No one objected!"

Zhang Tao still had an expression of hating iron and steel, and then said: "You are a doo who can't help you! How many opportunities were given to you before, time and funds were all given, and you are not up to your expectations. Now you regret it? It's too late! Even if I want to help you, I can't find a reason!"

Walking out of Zhang Tao's house, Liu Han clenched his fist fiercely.

"This Li Weidong, deduct my bonus, you wait for me! Don't think I can't cure you! I'll go to the labor bureau next week and sue you!"

...

On Monday, the reception window of the labor bureau was full of people, half of them middle-aged people in their 30s and 40s, and the other half were migrant workers.

In addition to laid-off workers, those who came to the Labor Bureau these days were migrant workers who were owed wages.

"So many people!" Liu Han looked at the crowd lining up with an irritated expression.

However, Liu Han's irritable expression cannot be seen by other people, because now Liu Han is wearing sunglasses and a mask over his mouth, obviously because he is afraid that others will recognize him.

Liu Han subconsciously walked to the window, just as he was about to speak, he was pushed aside by a burly man.

"Line up!" The strong man gave Liu Han a vicious look.

"I'm just responding to the problem." Liu Han said a little aggrieved.

"We are all here to report the problem, queue up!" The strong man snorted coldly.

The other people in the queue also cast bad glances at Liu Han, and Liu Han had to obediently go to the back to line up.

After waiting in line for more than two hours, Liu Han finally came to the window.

The staff member in the window took a record sheet and asked at the same time, "What question do you want to respond to?"

"I want to report, I will report Fukang Construction Machinery Co., Ltd.!" Liu Han said quickly.

"Oh, is it the issue of layoffs or the issue of unpaid wages?" the staff member asked while saying.

"Laid off? Unpaid wages?" Liu Han was stunned for a moment, then asked, "None of them."

"Neither?" The staff raised his head, looked at Liu Han, and asked curiously, "Then what are you reporting?"

"I reported that Fukang Engineering deducted the bonuses of employees for no reason!" Liu Han said.

This was the first time the staff encountered such a situation, so he continued to ask, "How much was deducted?"

"170 yuan?" Liu Han replied.

"The bonus can be deducted so much!" The staff member was slightly surprised, and then asked, "How much was it before the bonus was deducted?"

"I used to pay 785 yuan a month, and this month I only have 615 yuan left!" Liu Han replied.

"615? The salary is higher than mine!" The staff member muttered to himself.

At this time, several people lining up behind Liu Han also heard this conversation between Liu Han and the staff.

"You earn more than 600 yuan a month, so you're so embarrassed to come here to join in the fun!"

"It's so outrageous. After earning so much money, you still come to complain. You really don't know your blessings in the midst of blessings."

"Hey, I said that you can earn six or seven hundred a month, so don't take up the ditch here and not poop. Get out of the way quickly, and the people behind us have to respond to the problem!"

The people in line behind him shouted at Liu Han for a while.

The staff also felt that Liu Han was a bit Versailles, so he said, "Okay, let's record your report, and we will send someone to investigate later."

"Then when are you going to investigate? You have to give me a specific time, right?" Liu Han asked eagerly.

"I really can't give you this specific time. There are priorities, and our manpower is limited. We must do urgent things first!" The staff replied.

"I'm in a hurry. Many employees have their bonuses deducted. You have to send someone to investigate!" Liu Han said.

The staff smiled slightly: "This comrade, it's really not an urgent matter for you!"

"I'm not urgent, what is urgent?" Liu Han snorted coldly.

"There are more urgent matters than you!" The worker pointed to the thick stack of forms on the left, and continued, "These are the basic living expenses for laid-off workers."

The staff pointed to a stack of forms on the right, and continued: "These are all unpaid migrant workers. There are also those over there, those with work-related injuries, some who want to retire early, and some who run away from factory closures. of.

These things are more urgent than yours. These people are all waiting for money to eat. Naturally, we have to help them solve their problems first. You have more than 600 yuan a month anyway, and it will not affect your life for a while, so just wait! "

Liu Han looked at the thick stacks of documents, and couldn't help but ask, "So many, how long will it take for you to deal with it before it's my turn!"

The staff member smiled slightly and said, "Life is endless, struggle is endless! No matter how numerous the tasks are, we must work hard to complete them! As far as I am concerned, since the day I joined the civil service, I have done a good job in it. Prepare to serve the people for the rest of your life!"

Liu Han blinked his eyes inexplicably, and thought to himself, you mean, do you want me to wait for you for the rest of your life?
