Rebirth of the Industrial Tycoon

To acquire a company, there are two things that must be clarified, one is assets, and the other is debt.

How much assets Sanquan Medical Device Factory still has, and how much these assets are worth, can be handed over to professional asset evaluation agencies for evaluation, and Li Weidong will also spend money to hire accountants. In this regard, Li Weidong is not worried about being scammed.

In terms of debt, such as the money owed to the bank and the money owed to other manufacturers, these are also relatively easy to calculate, and they are all on the clear account.

It is more troublesome to owe money to employees.

Sanquan Medical Equipment Factory has been out of production for a long time, and employees have also been laid off and returned home in batches, which must have owed employees a lot of wages. How much should these wages be paid, whether they should be paid in full or in part, and whether they should be paid during the layoff Make up, it's all a problem.

In addition to wages, arrears of pension insurance is another very important issue.

In the era of planned economy, workers' pensions were paid directly by enterprises. Later, the state established a social insurance system, where workers’ pensions were issued by the social security fund, and enterprises were responsible for paying social security for their employees.

After the implementation of the social security policy, private enterprises may not necessarily implement it. Among state-owned enterprises and collective enterprises, the implementation is relatively smooth. As long as they are regular employees, enterprises will pay social security.

However, with the advent of the wave of layoffs, the social security of employees has also become a major problem. Enterprises are closed down, how can there be money to pay social security to employees!

For an old-fashioned company like Sanquan Medical Equipment Factory, there will definitely be many employees who are about to retire, and it is also a very important issue to solve the arrears of endowment insurance.

In later generations, the state has issued a special policy for the social security of laid-off workers. In 1997, these policies had not yet been introduced, so local governments and enterprises could only resolve them on their own.

In addition, the issue of arrears of benefits also needs to be resolved.

The former Sanquan Medical Equipment Factory had very good benefits, and the benefits were naturally very high, such as cooling costs in summer, heating costs in winter, transportation costs throughout the year, and festival costs during the festivals.

Once the welfare is implemented, there is no way to cancel it. Even if there is no money to pay the welfare, it can only be delayed without arrears.

These miscellaneous expenses on employees add up to a large amount. If they are not properly solved, they will also cause hidden dangers.

For example, for the heating bill in arrears, if the money is paid to the employee in the name of the puppy's health, it means that the puppy's health recognizes this benefit, and the puppy's health will be paid for every year in the future. issued.

With more than 1,000 employees, all kinds of benefits add up, which will be a lot of expenses.

Li Weidong must not be taken advantage of by this, so he strongly demanded that all the expenses owed to employees be included in the company's liabilities.

Even if it is to be repaid to employees, it is still the responsibility of the local economic and trade commission. The health of the puppy must be separated from these messy benefits, and don’t expect the health of the puppy to issue these welfare subsidies in the future.

These projects all need to negotiate with the local economic and trade commission and Sanquan Medical Device Factory.

Negotiations do not require a big boss like Li Weidong to go out in person. Li Weidong only needs to draw a bottom line for negotiation, and he will leave it to Lu Guangming to do the negotiation.

Lu Guangming has been a medical representative for so many years, and he must be very smooth in dealing with people and things. Moreover, Lu Guangming is a doctor, and he is an expert. Li Weidong even felt that it might be more appropriate for Lu Guangming to be in charge of the negotiations than himself.

...

In the hotel, Li Weidong explained to Lu Guangming the bottom line of the negotiation.

Li Weidong said: "As for asset evaluation, there will be evaluation agencies in the province. The evaluation results given by them will definitely be much less than the previous 70 million, but I estimate that in the end, it will still be better than ours. evaluation is higher.

If the estimated numbers are not too exaggerated, even if the price is slightly higher, it is acceptable. After all, it is to operate here, and it has to give the place some sweetness, so that it will be easier to get along in the future.

Regarding the issue of debt, we must also make it clear that we can spend more money on acquisition costs, but we must not have anything to do with the issue of station affairs.

How to deal with the debts of Sanquan Medical Equipment Factory is all handed over to the Economic and Trade Commission. When it comes to us, it is a one-size-fits-all approach. All debts have nothing to do with the health of the puppy, and the creditors should not come to us. "

Lu Guangming took the notes and asked at the same time, "It's better to say, the part owed to the employees, including wages, endowment insurance, and welfare subsidies, may not be easy to handle.

Sanquan Factory didn't want to count this part into the debt, and made it clear that it wanted us to bear this part after we acquired it. I've also calculated that if it's just arrears of wages, it's actually not a lot, and we can afford it.

Moreover, after we acquired Sanquan Factory, we will also use the original employees. Why don't we just pay the money, so that people can be reassured and the workers can work steadily. "

Li Weidong shook his head: "Sanquan Factory just wants to sell more money. We can give this part of the money, but we can't give it to the workers.

If the previously arrears of wages were paid by us, it would give the workers an illusion that the Sanquan Factory was still the former Sanquan Factory, and that we inherited the original Sanquan Factory.

Do we have to solve all the problems left by Sanquan Factory? At that time, someone will come to ask for heating bills in winter, someone will come to ask for cooling bills in summer, and someone will ask for transportation expenses throughout the year. Even if the faucet in the family's yard is broken, it will come to the logistics office of the factory to repair it!

So we can give this money, but we can't handle it. We must let the Economic and Trade Commission or the Laosanquan Factory distribute it to the workers. If there is a dispute, it is also a dispute between the Laosanquan factory and the employees, and the health of our puppies. It doesn't matter.

What we want to acquire is a factory that has nothing to do with the past, and we also want to operate it as a new factory, with a new system, new management, and a new style of work, but we cannot continue to use the management of state-owned enterprises. Way. It must be completely cut from the original Sanquan factory. "

"I see, I didn't think well." Lu Guangming paused, then continued; "But what I'm worried about is that even if we are willing to pay the money, the third factory and the Economic and Trade Commission may not be willing to do so. Give the money to the workers!

If they take the money, but don’t give it to the workers, but use it for other purposes, then when we buy the Sanquan Factory, the workers will still ask us for money, which will definitely cause unnecessary trouble. "

"This involves an issue of special funds." Li Weidong frowned, thought for a moment, and then said, "This part of the funds should be set up in a separate account and handed over to the Economic and Trade Commission, and should not be mixed with other funds.

Then inform the employees of Sanquan Factory about this matter, and let employees of Sanquan Factory spontaneously supervise. If the money in this account is not used for repayment of wages, but is used for other purposes, we do not need to go out, the employees of Sanquan Factory will definitely quit! "

"That's right, it's about their vital interests, don't worry about us, the employees of Sanquan Factory will keep an eye on them." Lu Guangming said.

Li Weidong remembered another thing, and he said: "When it comes to the issue of employees, there should be a lot of employees over the age of 40 in Sanquan Factory, right?"

Lu Guangming picked up a form and introduced: "Sanquan Factory is an old factory established in the 1950s after all, so naturally there are quite a few older workers.

According to the investigation I sent privately, the best time for Sanquan Factory was in the 1980s, and most of the workers in the factory joined the factory after the 1980s, usually in their early thirties.

Workers over the age of 40 generally came to the factory in the late 1960s and 1970s. At that time, it was quite special. There were not many employees who entered the factory during the period. There were only about a hundred people, and it looked like less than 200 people.

In addition, after the 1980s, Sanquan Factory had relatively good benefits. Those who were transferred to Sanquan Factory from other units are now in their 40s, and there are about 100 people. "

"In other words, there are three hundred employees over the age of forty!" Li Weidong frowned and thought.

Lu Guangming pondered Li Weidong's thoughts, then lowered his voice and asked softly; "Chairman, these older people, let's just..."

As Lu Guangming said that, he made a gesture of chopping vegetables with his hand, which meant that when he acquired Sanquan Medical Equipment Factory, these older workers would not be accepted.

At that time, people over the age of 40 were not welcome, whether it was corporate restructuring or placement of laid-off workers.

When many enterprises are restructuring, they will try their best to get rid of those older ordinary workers, and those units that are willing to accept laid-off workers are only young people.

According to normal standards, the age of forty is a prime time, a golden period in a person's life. However, in the workplace, the age of forty is an embarrassing age.

For those middle and high-level management positions, scientific research positions, or positions with relatively high demand for experience and technology, the age of 40 is the time when they start to produce results.

If you are an entrepreneur, a scientist, or a doctor, then congratulations, your era has just begun, and your career is about to reach its peak.

However, for ordinary workers, the age of forty means that your career is over. You have no chance of getting better in your life. At the age of forty, you can probably already see what you will look like when you retire in the future.

For enterprises, ordinary workers over the age of 40 are not as strong as young men in terms of body, energy and work efficiency, and ordinary workers at this age have no passion for work, and many people go to work just mixing day.

Men may be better off, even if they are over forty years old, they are willing to work hard to support their families.

However, for female employees, they retire at the age of 50. Then when they are in their 40s, they are about to retire. How many people will still focus on work? Many of the people who are messing around in the unit are "a certain eldest sister".

Therefore, the laid-off female workers at that time were the most difficult group for re-employment. Female workers over the age of 40 were also the first to be cleaned up in the process of "burden reduction" by many companies.

The social reality is so cruel. Work units all want young people and think that young people can work. This has not changed even after 20 years.

For example, civil servants and public institutions wave their hands, and the age will be limited to 35 years old, and many companies recruit people to limit the age to more than 20 years old.

People over the age of 35, if they don't make a name for themselves, there is no one who wants to find a job. Even if it is a salesperson who does not need a basic salary, the boss looks disgusted.

For example, practitioners of some technology companies or Internet companies will be dismissed if they have not been promoted to management at the age of 35.

Li Weidong is in business, not charity. As an entrepreneur, of course he has to pursue the production efficiency of products, and those older workers will obviously lower the production rate.

Therefore, Li Weidong is also considering, and simply give some severance pay to clear out all those older employees.

The so-called emperor and courtiers, in the process of corporate mergers, cleaning up some personnel is also a matter of course.

Lu Guangming obviously saw Li Weidong's idea and brought it up.

However, Li Weidong looked at Lu Guangming's one-size-fits-all gesture, and finally shook his head.

"Forget it, as long as you don't commit rape and commit crimes and are willing to abide by the management system, don't dismiss employees lightly. It's not easy for laid-off workers, and many people are both old and young. Try to give them a way to survive. !" Li Weidong sighed.

It is indeed what business operators should do to eliminate older workers and pursue maximization of production efficiency in order to obtain more profits.

But as an entrepreneur, you can't just focus on profits, and entrepreneurs should also take corresponding responsibilities.

This responsibility is not only social responsibility, but also economic responsibility, legal responsibility and moral responsibility.

Li Weidong has his own moral bottom line. It is true that laying off those older employees can bring more profits, but Li Weidong cannot convince himself on the moral level.

...

Li Weidong still has a lot of things to do. After he handed over the negotiation to Lu Guangming, he acted as a hands-off shopkeeper again.

On Lu Guangming's side, whenever there is a breakthrough in the negotiation, he will call Li Weidong to report.

In this way, after more than half a month, Sanquan Medical Device Factory's asset evaluation, debt calculation and other projects have been completed, and the negotiation has entered the stage of quotation.

As far as the whole negotiation process is concerned, it was relatively smooth. After all, one wants to buy and the other wants to sell. Both parties have a consensus on reaching a deal, and the difference is nothing more than a question of price.

Soon, the price came to 30 million, which also included the wages owed to the workers before.

This price has already reached Li Weidong's psychological price. To spend 30 million to buy Sanquan Factory cannot be said to be a profit, but it is definitely not a loss.

According to Lu Guangming's feedback, the price has also met the expectations of the local government. Next, the two parties only need to reach a consensus on some details before signing the contract.

...

At noon, Li Weidong was eating with the client when the phone rang, and Lu Guangming came to report the progress of the negotiation again.

Li Weidong sued the client for a leave of absence, walked out of the room with his mobile phone, found a corner where no one was around, and asked, "Lao Lu, if you don't eat at this time, call me, have you reached a consensus there? Can you sign a contract?"

Lu Guangming's voice was a little low, and he said, "Early this morning, I received a call from Shen Yuan of the Economic and Trade Commission, saying that it was an instruction from a superior to suspend the negotiations with us!"

"We're almost done talking, so stop the negotiation at this time?" Li Weidong was stunned for a moment, and then said, "It shouldn't violate the policy when we buy Sanquan Factory, right? Could it be that the previous production project of Sanquan Factory involves any state secrets? , so the acquisition was called off?"

"No, the acquisition was stopped, and it has nothing to do with Sanquan Factory." Lu Guangming continued: "I asked about the relationship all morning, and finally found out why the acquisition was stopped. It was because a Korean company came to Acquire Sanquan Factory!"

"Korean company? Who is it?" Li Weidong asked immediately.

"It is said to be a company under the Daewoo Group of South Korea." Lu Guangming replied.

"Korea Daewoo Group?" Li Weidong showed a strange expression and said subconsciously, "Is this here to die?"
