Chapter 289: People's hearts fluctuate

Perhaps out of the psychology of attributing merit to crime, Han Weichang investigated the situation clearly in less than a day and reported it to Tang Zifeng.

According to what Han Weichang learned, He Ji'an had hooked up with a Japanese machine tool company that had just entered China before the bankruptcy of Dongyuan Machine Tool Company, called Someno Machine Tool Co., Ltd. China Company. Somino Kaisha is a strong machine tool company in Japan, and this time it entered China to establish a branch because it saw the opportunity in the Chinese market.

Someno China is located in Pengcheng and has a production base, a research institute and a sales center. The products currently produced and sold by Someno are all mature products of Someno Co., Ltd., but slightly modified according to the characteristics of Chinese users. However, the executives of Somino knew that the development of machine tool technology was very fast, and the needs of users were constantly changing, and that if Somino China wanted to continue to obtain high profits from the Chinese market, it must adapt to market demand and continuously develop new products, which is why Somino Kaisha wanted to establish a research institute in China.

According to the plan of Somino Kaisha, the production focus of the entire company will gradually shift to China in the future, and one of the important reasons for this is that China has abundant cheap labor resources, whether it is skilled workers or engineers, the salary level is only equivalent to 1/10 or even lower in Japan, which is very important for Somino Kaisha to reduce production costs.

Japan was once the world's factory, with strong industrial manufacturing and development capabilities. However, in recent years, with the development of Japan's economy, the younger generation, who live in excellent conditions, have become more and more reluctant to engage in industry, and prefer industries such as finance and culture. The number of engineering graduates is decreasing, so much so that it has become increasingly difficult to hire young mechanical engineers in the workplace.

In contrast, there are hundreds of thousands of engineering graduates in China every year, and these people generally do not have high salary requirements, and they can hire very good graduates from prestigious universities for very little money. Of course, these young people are not enough to take the lead right away, but if they are mentored, with their talent and hard-working spirit, they can do a very good job. Someno Kaisha decided to expand the size of the China Research Institute, and eventually moved all the machine design work to China.

In addition to technology development, Someno China is more eager to open up the sales market. The machine tool market is more particular about long-term cooperative relations, users are accustomed to using a manufacturer's products, and in the future when purchasing new machine tools, this manufacturer will also be given priority. Among them, it involves the use habits of operators and the continuity of after-sales service. As a new manufacturer, it takes a long time to gain user recognition.

The approach taken by Someno China is to recruit a group of people who have a lot of connections in the Chinese machine tool market as sales representatives. These people are familiar with the needs of users and are able to convince users to accept a new brand with old relationships. It is precisely because of this ability that He Ji'an has been reused by Someno China.

After He Ji'an entered the company, he took on two responsibilities at the same time, one was to use his connections to promote the Someno machine tool, and the other was to help the Someno Machine Tool Research Institute recruit excellent engineers. The word "solicitation" sounds very mild, but what He Ji'an actually does is to pry the corners of various machine tool companies. The vast majority of China's outstanding machine tool engineers are in large state-owned machine tool factories or machine tool research institutes, and the wages of these units are not high.

"At the end of the day, we're too poor. If we can raise the salary of engineers, it will be difficult for He Ji'an, an old boy, to poach people. Han Weichang said to Tang Zifeng with emotion.

"It's useless. Tang Zifeng shook his head and said, "Japan's salary level is 10 times higher than ours, unless we increase the salary of engineers by 10 times, people will always have a way to pry into our corners." ”

"yes, who made us a developing country. Han Weichang said along with Tang Zifeng's words. He had actually thought about this question and found that it was indeed an unsolvable problem. People go to high places, water flows to low places, and the wages given by Japanese-funded enterprises are high, so naturally some people want to climb high branches, which is difficult to stop.

"Director Tang, I have understood, He Ji'an is not in Linhe at present, he has gone to Huangyang. I've asked my friends to keep an eye on him, and when he comes back to the river, a few of my friends will let me know as soon as he comes. When the time comes, we'll give him a turtle in an urn. Han Weichang said.

Tang Zifeng said: "But, why should we arrest him, he didn't break the law." ”

"It's not a crime to pry into a corner?" Mr. Han said.

Tang Zifeng said: "This kind of thing, I really can't find any reason to arrest him." Besides, what's the use of arresting him, people who want to change jobs can't be kept by catching He Ji'an. ”

"That's right. Han Weichang changed his words very quickly. He had the idea to arrest He Ji'an, and there were more personal grudges, and when he heard Tang Zifeng say that there was no reason to arrest people, he could only swallow this breath.

"Okay, old Han, you've done a good job. Tang Zifeng turned around and encouraged Han Weichang, "The rest of the things will be discussed with Chief Engineer Qin and Director Sun." You are now ready to do a good job in the handover of the sales department, the factory meeting has been discussed and approved, and it has been decided to transfer you to Tengji to preside over the sales work there, and I have already said it to Director Zhou. You settle down at home, and in a week or two you can go and take office. ”

"No problem!" Han Weichang agreed extremely happily, "I have already told my wife that this is an important task assigned to me by Director Tang, and my wife agreed without saying a word." ”

Tang Zifeng said: "Okay, then you can quickly make preparations." Tengji's work, if you can successfully complete it, I will write off the past things for you, and the factory will not treat you badly. ”

Sent Han Weichang away, Tang Zifeng called Qin Zhongnian and Sun Min. Sun Min was instructed by Tang Zifeng to learn about the situation of the Canglong Research Institute being pried into the corner, and at this time there were already some preliminary results. According to what he learned, there are more than a dozen engineers in the research institute who have been in contact with He Ji'an, and they are all big bulls who can take charge of themselves.

However, it is precisely because these people are big bulls and have some roots in their respective factories that they are easily reluctant to give up, so so far, there are only about three or four people who have really expressed their willingness to change jobs, and the rest may still be in the wait-and-see period, and some people even want to wait to see the situation of other colleagues in the past, and then decide whether they want to change jobs.

"Although there are not many people who want to change jobs, the impact they have had is huge. Now the hearts of the people in the research institute are fluctuating, especially those who are determined to leave, boasting about the benefits of job hopping everywhere, so that other people can't work with peace of mind. Sun Min complained.

"Such a big thing, if it wasn't for Xiao Tang reminding you, wouldn't you have noticed it until now?" Qin Zhongnian glared at Sun Min and asked dissatisfiedly.

Sun Min looked aggrieved, but he couldn't argue with it. Employees want to change jobs, before the actual implementation, they have to hide from the leader, he doesn't know that this situation is normal. Of course, if he is more vigilant and usually chats with the staff, some clues can always be detected. Now that people have dug the corners of the wall to the bottom of his feet, he realized that it was indeed a dereliction of duty.

Tang Zifeng waved his hand and said, "Chief Engineer Qin, don't blame Director Sun." He has been working on high-precision milling machine projects these days, and I heard that he often stays up all night, and there are some things that he hasn't discovered for a while, and it is not his responsibility. ”

"Where, the factory sent me to the research institute as the dean, but I made such a big mistake in my work, this responsibility must be borne, I asked the factory to punish me. Sun Min pretended to be sincerely frightened and said. Although he said this, he also knew in his heart that Tang Zifeng would not punish him, after all, he really couldn't blame him for this matter, and if he wanted to complain, he could only blame He Ji'an, the enemy, for being too cunning and taking advantage of the loopholes of the research institute.

Qin Zhongnian said: "The punishment will be exempted, Xiao Tang is right, you can't be blamed for this matter." The most important thing for us now is to discuss how to deal with this matter, Don Jr., what do you think?"

Tang Zifeng pondered for a moment and said, "If someone wants to change jobs, we can't stop it." The forcibly twisted melon is not sweet, these people's minds are no longer in the research institute, and it is not interesting to leave them behind. I think the most important thing now is to stabilize the situation, and let those who want to leave leave as soon as possible. Those who don't want to leave, let them stay in a down-to-earth manner and do a good job.

"Just now, Director Sun said that the people's hearts in the research institute are fluctuating, which is the most terrible thing. In fact, there are not many people leaving, but it affects the enthusiasm of most people, which is very undesirable. ”

Sun Min nodded: "Yes, I think so too." Those who want to go, let them go. If Butcher Zhang is dead, we don't necessarily have to eat mixed pigs. But because a few of them were leaving, everyone didn't have the heart to do things, and the loss was great. ”

"However, how to stabilize the situation?" Qin Zhongnian asked.

Tang Zifeng said: "It's very simple, that is, pick things apart, don't hide it." I've thought about it, since we can't stop those who are leaving, we just have to be more open-minded and open the door for them to go. However, we also have to set down the rules, and we only give a one-week window period for those who want to leave, and after this point, we will have to pay the price if we want to leave. In addition, we are not a hotel here, you can leave if you want, but if you want to come back in the future, it is not so easy, and this article is also to be said in front. ”

"That's good!" Qin Zhongnian praised, "If you want to leave, go through the formalities immediately, and we won't stop you." If you stay, then work in peace and don't think about leaving again. In this way, those who are at both ends of the rat will have to make a decision quickly. ”
