"Nas, from today onwards, it's up to you to lead a team. Sessi, manager of the soybean trading department of Gaohong in the United States, announced the appointment to Wang Hang.

"No problem. Wang Hang, who has a workplace stress response, quickly gave a standard answer, before he realized that it was recognition from the Americans.

Wang Hang, 28, is the youngest member of Jiagu's international team. "Nas" is his English name.

Wang Hang was born in a peasant family in Northeast China, graduated from a secondary school five years ago, and his academic qualifications are not outstanding in Jiagu.

However, Wang Hang, who joined Jiagu and started from the grassroots level, showed extraordinary foreign language talent and management ability in the first year, and has been trained by Jiagu since then.

After more than a year of grassroots cadres in the Russian Far East, he was transferred to the headquarters for training and further study, and then successively experienced the merger and acquisition of Australian sugar enterprises and the integration of Brazilian sugar factories.

In Jiagu Group, the level of grassroots cadres is much higher than that of ordinary agricultural enterprises, and can even reach the level of middle-level cadres of other agricultural enterprises.

On the one hand, this is because Jiagu grassroots work has strong experience, which is conducive to the accumulation and progress of grassroots personnel; on the other hand, it is also because Jiagu is a young enterprise, it is rarely shackled, and there is no glass ceiling.

In particular, outstanding employees who have received equity incentives, even if they still stay in the grassroots position, get more dividends every year than ordinary management. In this way, the integrity of the grassroots can also be guaranteed, and the grassroots cadres will not blindly pursue promotion to management.

After all, although the latter has more room for growth, but the job requirements are different, if you can't adapt, not only is it difficult to be promoted, but it is possible to fall from the "equity incentive list", for Jiagu employees, whether they can be on the list, at least three times the income gap, which is very important for most people who work just to make money.

In terms of resume and contributions, the 28-year-old Wang Hang is impeccable. He has not only received equity incentives from the group, but also is full of enterprising spirit. It is also by relying on his resume and enterprising spirit that he can get the most important training opportunities for the entire Jiagu system, and if there is no accident, he will be present in the multinational management team of Jiagu in the future.

A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, where does Wang Hang care about hard work or not?

Many cadres in Jiagu are children of peasant families, but there are definitely not many promotion and further education opportunities that students from prestigious universities cannot have through grassroots training and internal double selection.

This made Wang Hang full of energy. After arriving in the United States, he became the famous "Desperate Saburo" of Kaya's international team.

He got up early in the morning and worked in the dark, and in just one month, he was able to figure out the circulation mechanism from the barn belt to the port, the operation of the practitioners, and the mechanism of grain circulation in the United States.

From the second day after arriving in Nebraska, Wang Hang began to travel around the Midwestern states to learn about the situation, on the one hand, he was in constant contact with famous brokers, gradually becoming friends, and gradually grasping the competitive system of the American grain market, and on the other hand, he drove to the vast fields of the states to listen directly to the opinions of farmers. Even sometimes I have been following behind a big truck full of grain, and I have met all the series of granaries belonging to Gao Hong.

Even in the overworked Jiagu international team, Wang Hang's move can be called crazy.

You know, in the super drought Midwest of the United States, the outdoor temperature can sometimes rise to 40 degrees Celsius, and people can be sunburned off a layer of skin in a week. When Mr. Wang reported to the office of Mr. Sesi, the manager of Gaohong's soybean trading department, a month later, Mr. Selsi was almost blinded by his dark skin.

After learning about Wang Hang's work intensity, Sersi rejoiced: "God forbid, fortunately, Nas, you didn't die suddenly, ......" and then strongly asked Wang Hang to compress his working hours.

At this time, the difference between Chinese and American cultures, or the high concern for labor rights, is the real difference between Chinese and American employees.

In the U.S., commuting to and from work is the most basic requirement. Of course, the grain trade is different, for example, in the harvest season, all personnel will be busy, and naturally they will not be able to commute on time. However, this is an industry characteristic, and there is nothing unacceptable. And the working hours are long, and the rest time after being busy is also long.

But if it weren't for the busy season, especially when the weather was so difficult, even if Wang Hang worked at half the intensity......

Sersi asked herself, can she do it when she was young?

Answer: I can't!

In this kind of weather, it is considered to be dedicated if you don't ask for an extended rest time, and you automatically work overtime?

Looking at the Jiagu international team, although others are not as crazy as Wang Hang, they are also addicted to work and can't extricate themselves, and Sersi asked Wang Hang in an extremely complicated tone: "Chinese, do they all work like this?"

Although this is in line with one impression most Americans have of Chinese - industrious by nature.

China's name as the world's manufacturing factory is not for nothing. The manufacturing industry is the industry that can best reflect the "diligence or not" of workers, and the most suitable management method is militarization, which alienates people into machines on the industrial assembly line, such as taking a break twice a month, going home once a few years, forced overtime, and collectivized life...... It's a no-brainer.

But the diligence of the "livestock" of Jiagu is too terrifying. In fact, what Selsi wants to ask is that the employees of Jiagu all work like this?

If so, Sersi considered whether to resign. No matter how much money he gives, he can't stand this kind of work intensity.

Wang Hang smiled.

How can it be so scary?

First of all, the Chinese are not industrious by nature.

At the beginning of reform and opening up, the biggest impression of the workers of China's state-owned enterprises by some foreign experts invited to China was that they were lazy, and that they had to do the work that could be done by one person......

It's just that, after more than 30 years of transformation, almost all industries in China have been "transformed" by manufacturing - hotel waiters have to do radio drills, white-collar workers have to participate in brainwashing, and Internet companies have chief value officers...... Whether it is Huawei BYD or BAT, all enterprises are managed according to the manufacturing industry, and the core is "higher efficiency, more unified quality, and lower cost".

On the other hand, today's Chinese young people, especially since the post-90s generation entered the workforce, are also scorning this management model, just like American young people. They simply pursue "996", and the enterprises that cannot do it are exploited by the capitalists......

"Jiagu respects the individuality of its employees and never forces them to work overtime. However, Jiagu's system is fair, and employees who are willing to give more will naturally get more and better opportunities. Wang Hang explained.

In Jiagu, he has never been the most talented employee, and he has been able to climb to this point today by bearing unimaginable efforts from ordinary people. Like him, Wei Ming, who was stationed in the desert to open up the wasteland, was promoted in the Jiagu system at almost a rocket-like speed. It can be said that Kaya's system is also prepared for these people.

Sersi still couldn't understand these Chinese who seemed to be full of infinite energy, but just as all bosses like positive employees, he was still impressed by Wang Hang's work attitude.

Naturally, Wang Hang became the first Jiagu person to be awarded a heavy position in Gaohong.

He will lead a team to Illinois to secure new orders and establish new business ties with soybean farmers, as this year's drought in the United States has plunged grain production and increased competition for food sources.

Isn't this a sign of integration?

It is not that the systems of the two companies are completely convergent to be called integration, as long as the two sides can reach a consensus on the concept, it can be regarded as a certain degree of integration.

"Fairness" is obviously a good point. At the very least, isn't the United States a welfare state that feeds the lazy in Europe? Isn't the core of the American Dream "As long as you have equal opportunities, you can live a good life with hard work"?

Naturally, Wang Hang's performance also entered Qi Zheng's eyes.

According to his progress and enterprising spirit, Qi Zheng is optimistic that he can become the core figure of Jiagu's international team, and from the perspective of Jiagu's overseas strategy, he is undoubtedly an important candidate for the future Jiagu giant.

Therefore, Qi Zheng also personally joined Wang Hang's team to observe his performance up close.

The American farmer in the advertising campaign, wearing a cowboy hat and a huge man, sits in an even bigger tractor, holding the steering wheel with one hand and smiling heartily at the camera.

But this year's American farmers can't laugh.

Along the way, they could see withered soybean fields that were too hot and dry to harvest, fields of corn that were short and small enough to produce ears of corn and yellow leaves, and patches of brown pastures with dozens of acres of pasture that could not even support a cow......

The power of the "super drought" is laid bare.

Wang Hang didn't know that there was also the credit of the boss around him, he just calmly analyzed: "For American soybean farmers, a year's drought is not terrible, because there is insurance payout, which can minimize losses." What they fear most is successive droughts or successive bumper harvests. ”

"I can understand the former, but why is the latter?"

"Oh, I'm talking about a bumper harvest, a bumper harvest of soybeans around the world. As a result, soybean prices may fall below the planting cost line for soybean farmers. For soybean farmers, falling below the cost line means bankruptcy. After all, according to the soybean planting process in the United States, most farmers will first take out loans to buy seeds and fertilizers, and then repay the loans by selling the harvest to obtain income......" Wang Hang paused and smiled slightly: "I think this is an opportunity." ”

Wang Hang quickly showed Qi Zheng his all-round ability.

First of all, he selected the scope of farms to cooperate with based on Gaohong's transportation routes in Illinois and the most efficient arrangement of transportation capacity.

Inland transportation and ocean transportation are important components of soybean prices, and at present, most of them are controlled by international grain merchants.

In the case of intensified competition in soybean purchases, large grain merchants have invariably compressed the living space of small grain merchants. Gao Hong is also one of them.

For farmers who are not in the cooperative system of the four major grain merchants, Wang Hang has set conditions that can provide them with storage services for a long time - this year's reduced harvest will naturally not have the pressure of storage. But in the case of successive harvest seasons, these farmers are most likely to face poor sales and no storage for soybeans.

Soybeans, unlike corn, are highly susceptible to moisture and are not easy to preserve. If not stored properly, it will quickly decay. In general, in this case, these farmers who are not in the cooperative system of the four major grain merchants are the most likely to become "cannon fodder". The truth that "people have no immediate worries must have long-term concerns" can actually be understood by Americans.

Wang Hang dared to offer such conditions, naturally because after Gao Hong was acquired by Jiagu, the sales channels of soybeans became wider, and some warehousing services could be "vacated". But this kind of condition is difficult for small grain merchants who do not have granaries to bear.

In the end, Qi Zheng also found that most of the farmers Wang Hang sought cooperation with were young farmers.

"After all, I'm a foreigner, and I'm not very old, so I'm more conversational with young people who are more receptive to new things. In this regard, Wang Hang wrote lightly.

But Qi Zheng knew that this was based on his contacts with brokers and farmers in the previous month, so as to grasp the competitive system of the American grain market.

Again, behind the success you see, I don't know how much sweat people have put in.

By the time Wang Hang single-handedly added 4 million tons of soybean purchase orders for Gao Hong, so that Sersi, the manager of Gao Hong's soybean trading department, couldn't help but recommend it to Gao Hong's CEO, Qi Zheng had already remembered Wang Hang.

Nowadays, it is not uncommon for college students to join Jiagu as farmers. Jiagu's position in the industry will not make college students have any feeling of falling from the "palace" into the "mud"; the generous treatment given by Jiagu also makes people feel that college students become farmers at most, and there is only one sentence of "young people do not yearn for prosperity and liveliness", and they cannot produce the appreciation of "stepping on the mud and looking up at the starry sky".

However, being a "peasant" can be to the extent of Wang Hang, even if it is Qi Zheng, it is rare. If you take into account his ordinary background and ordinary educational background, it is even more rare!

The second decade of Jiagu's establishment is about to begin, and at this point in time, some old management in the Jiagu system is about to abdicate, and the "new stars" led by Wang Hang and Wei Ming are rising, providing new impetus for the giant ship of Jiagu to ride the wind and waves!
