Chapter 465: The Last Loyal Employee
"Yo, Old Han, I haven't seen you for many years, you're blessed!"
"Isn't this Mr. He, your figure is still so good, this little belly is long, and he looks like a boy at first glance. ”
"Haha, Lao Han, you are still as humorous as in the past, no wonder the business has been doing well over the years. ”
"Where is it, your business is really good, and in the past three years, you have changed more than a dozen main products alone, right?"
"Isn't this all forced by your old Han......
"Don't say that, this is Mr. He's own credit is ......"
The meeting between He Ji'an and Han Weichang was full of wit from the beginning. He Ji'an behaved extremely low-key, but Han Weichang didn't appreciate it, and specifically picked He Ji'an's uncomfortable place to stab.
Han Weichang said that Dyeno has changed more than a dozen main products in the past three years, but it is a slap in the face of red fruits. In recent years, Linji and other Chinese companies have continuously launched new products, squeezing the market space of foreign-funded enterprises such as Dyeyeye. Many of Someno's traditional products have been eliminated because the cost performance is far inferior to that of domestic products, forcing Someno's sales department to frequently replace the so-called "flagship products".
He Ji'an and Han Weichang haven't seen each other for several years, but both sides know each other's dynamics. Many times, He Ji'an went to a customer to promote products, and all he heard was the news that Han Weichang had just left. There were many times when He Ji'an left the client's office with his front foot, and Han Weichang arrived with his back foot, and then waved his seven-inch tongue to pry the business He Ji'an had already talked about into his basket.
He Ji'an was full of resentment towards Han Weichang, but he also knew in his heart that he couldn't fight Han Weichang, not because of his own ability, but because the competitiveness of Dyeno was indeed much worse than before, especially in the low-end machine tool market, domestic machine tool manufacturers have absolute competitiveness.
Machine tools are not the same as mobile phones. The latter is both a tool and a luxury, so whether the technology is trendy has a great impact on sales, and the experience of single and dual cameras is completely different, and a weight reduction of 20 grams can also become a reason for fashionistas to change their phones.
A machine is just a tool, and while the beautiful appearance and comfortable touchscreen control can bring some pleasure to the operator, the executives in charge of machine procurement don't think about it, they care about performance, quality and price.
The machining requirements in the factory are very stable, and the left and right are just turning one shaft or milling two splines.
In the past, China's machine tool enterprises had poor technological level, low precision and poor quality of machine tools, such as Dyeno and other foreign-funded machine tool enterprises, even if the price was much higher than that of domestic machine tools, users pinched their noses and had to recognize. In recent years, the technological level of domestic machine tool enterprises has been rising, and the difference between the performance and quality of machine tools and foreign or imported machine tools has not been so obvious.
Japanese products were originally known as "Made in Japan" by beating Europe and the United States with their price advantages. But with the rise of the Asian Tigers, the price advantage of Japanese products was challenged. Then began to exert efforts in China, and Japanese products have finally become their own most hated appearance in the minds of users, and they are known for their inflated prices, just like European and American products in the past.
He Ji'an, who has worked in state-owned enterprises for many years, has carefully studied the cost structure of Someno China, and sadly finds that if there is a price war, Someno is no match for Chinese companies like Linji.
After the yen's appreciation, labor costs in Japan have increased significantly, and these costs have to be shared by Chinese companies. There are more than a dozen executives and ordinary employees sent from Japan, and their salaries are ten times that of Chinese employees such as He Ji'an, and they do very little work, they are completely parasites.
In addition to labor costs, the day-to-day management costs of Japanese companies are also outrageous. In order to maintain the high-end image of Japanese-funded enterprises, Someno Company stipulates that employees must live in five-star hotels on business trips, and you want to find a fast hotel to stay for a few nights to help the company save some travel expenses, in exchange for definitely not the praise of the Japanese supervisor, but a reprimand.
Various media in China are full of praise for the rigor of the Japanese, but He Ji'an, who is in a Japanese company, knows that the work style of the Japanese is not so much rigorous as rigid, and it is a serious fool. There are all kinds of rules and regulations in Japanese companies, and there are countless processes to go through to do something, and the employees in each process don't care whether the thing is good or bad, just whether it meets the regulations.
To put it more clearly, everyone's attitude towards their own work is to leave their responsibilities clean, once something happens, Shangfeng can't be held accountable to himself, that's it. There are many things that are obviously beneficial to the company's business development, but because some of the details do not meet the past regulations, the clerk will be stuck, and there are countless business opportunities lost for this.
He Ji'an doesn't like Dyeye, but he is very worried that Dyeno will be finished. As a multinational company, Someno is of course not so easy to finish, but He Ji'an is employed by Someno China, which is only a branch of Someno, and if it cannot create profits for Someno in the Chinese market, the headquarters of Someno will consider canceling this branch sooner or later.
He Ji'an is already over 50 years old, and it is very difficult for him to choose a new job. What he hopes is that Someno China will exist for a few more years, preferably until he retires, when he will have nothing to worry about.
The rigidity of the Japanese also has the advantage that if He Ji'an does not make mistakes, Someno China will not easily fire him. Therefore, in He Ji'an's view, his own fate is tied to Ranye, others can fool him, he can't fool him, he must find ways to renew his life for Someno.
He is the only loyal employee of Someno China.
On the other hand, Han Weichang, who was sitting opposite He Ji'an with a wicked smile, was in a mood as bright as his face. The business of Linji is booming, and Han Weichang is equivalent to sitting on a big boat riding the wind and waves, looking around, the sea and the sky, without any worries.
This time to Puqi to promote multi-station machine tools, Han Weichang knew that his biggest competitor was Dyno. He really wants to defeat Someno, but at the same time, he doesn't have any mental burden, and he is happy to win, and he doesn't have to worry about defeat. If it fails this time, it means that the temporary machine is still inferior to others, and it is a big deal to spend money on research and development, and the time is on the side of the temporary machine.
On the other hand, if the opportunity wins, then it means that the market balance is forever tilted towards the opportunity side. Past experience has shown that once a Chinese enterprise opens a gap in a certain market, the subsequent development is unstoppable. Chinese companies have strong cost control capabilities and can make a product the price of cabbage in a short period of time, which foreign company can resist such competition.
When Han Weichang heard He Ji'an's invitation, he accepted it without hesitation, which stemmed from such a winner's mentality. He came to the appointment today to see He Ji'an's embarrassment and to show off his success in front of He Ji'an.
"Old Han, don't look at my jokes, brother. To tell you the truth, brother, I have been cornered by you now, I asked you Lao Han today, just to ask you to take a hand from your brother for the sake of past friendships. ”
He Ji'an continued to sell miserably, looking down.
"What are Mr. He's talking about? You are the sales director of an international brand-name company, and I am a small employee of a state-owned enterprise, I am still thinking about when we will not be able to go to your name to become a salesman, why do you turn around and let me pull you?" Han Weichang said unforgivingly.
"Old Han, let's stop beating around the bush. Puqi contacted me and said that they took a fancy to your multi-station machine tool and didn't want our products, is that the case?" He Ji'an ended his saliva and got to the point.
Han Weichang nodded proudly and said: "That's right, our multi-station machine tool is of good quality, cheap price, and strong after-sales service, unless Mo Jingrong's head is kicked by a donkey, why do you want your dyed products?"
"When did you get a multi-station machine, why haven't I heard of it?"
"We are engaged in multi-station machine tools, when do we need to ask Mr. He for instructions? Let me tell you, as early as ten years ago, we have been engaged in it, and we have invested more than 2 billion yuan. Lao He, you have also been in a state-owned enterprise, you should know what it will look like if more than 2000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 ”
"Invested more than 2 billion, are you bragging?"
"What am I bragging? You don't know our Mr. Tang, what a bold person he is. Other companies, like your Changning, are all blind, and they know that they are staring at the two jujubes in front of them. We are always eyeing the international market. He said that our goal is to become the world's No. 1 machine tool company. What is more than 20 billion, and we will invest 10 billion or 100 billion in the future. ”
"Some things are not enough to just invest money, right? It took more than 20 years for Somino to develop a multi-station machine tool, and many technologies were repeatedly tested and revised in the production process. You haven't sold a transfer machine yet, right? How can you guarantee that your machine is fine?"
"Who said we haven't sold a multi-station machine? Their four production lines are all built by us, Yishui's Changying brand multi-station machine tools. The price of Dahe UAV has dropped from more than 10,000 to more than 2,000 in one go, relying on the machine tools we provide. ”
"Really?...... Even so, this is a drone, in terms of automotive machine tools, have you ever successfully applied it?"
"It's going to be there right away, and the production line of Fengmei will definitely be ours. ”
