Chapter 13: Taking Over

When Xia Yu and Ding Shengwu were about to arrive at the newspaper office, some employees had already gone in to inform others, and everyone had no intention of working, waiting for the results anxiously.

After entering the newspaper office, Ding Shengwu also felt this atmosphere, gathered all the employees, and then simply said a few words, thanking the employees for their efforts and so on.

After that, it was announced that the newspaper was wholly owned by Xia Yu.

As soon as the results came out, although the employees had already been psychologically prepared, they couldn't help but be in an uproar after seeing Xia Yu's young appearance, and they didn't have any hope for the future of the newspaper, and they were worried about their future.

Seeing the reaction of the employees, Xia Yu knew that he could not let this kind of signs spread, in case an employee left the company, it would be a big loss, although this possibility is not large, after all, in this era, it is not easy to find a job in Xiangjiang, but he will not try.

"Ahem, everyone, be quiet!"

After Xia Yu finished speaking, he looked at the employees who were still whispering with a solemn face, and did not smile until they were completely quiet.

"Let me introduce myself first, my name is Xia Yu, Xia of Summer, Yu of Dayu, from now on, I am your boss. ”

"I know that people will be disappointed when they see me, and they are worried that I don't know how to do it, so I will buy the "Hong Kong Island Daily" and play it, which will make you lose your jobs. ”

Xia Yu made their concerns clear from the beginning. Hearing Xia Yu's words, although all the employees did not speak, the expressions on their faces fully showed their worries.

"I understand everyone!"

"But!"

"My money is not blown by the wind, since I bought the "Hong Kong Island Daily", I must develop it, I am not short of hard work, what about you?"

"Past development tells me that the previous model is not working, and the "Hong Kong Island Daily" must be revised, since the newspaper is going to change, then I think it should start with the staff!"

"...... Uproar"

As soon as Xia Yu's words fell, there was an uproar below, and many people looked a little panicked, worried that Xia Yu would lay off employees, so they would not be able to make money to support their families.

And it's not easy to find a job in Xiangjiang now.

Looking at the reactions of the employees, Xia Yu didn't say much, but looked at them quietly, all within his plan.

As the saying goes, with great hope comes great disappointment.

In the same way, the greater the disappointment, the more people will grasp and be grateful when they get hope again.

After a while, seeing that Xia Yu did not speak, the scene quieted down again.

"Very good!

Xia Yu nodded with satisfaction and smiled.

"I want to tell you the good news, starting today, everyone's wages will increase by 20%!"

"Wow, isn't it?"

......

Hearing that the new boss said that not only did not lay off employees, but also raised salaries, everyone was a little incredulous, and after seeing Xia Yu smiling and nodding in confirmation, they couldn't help it anymore, shouted excitedly, and looked at Xia Yu's eyes full of heat and gratitude.

"That's what you want, the greater the contrast, the better!" Xia Yu thought to himself.

"Moreover, the cost is small, the effect is fast, and there is no cost in the early stage. ”

In fact, Xia Yu's salary increase was also considered after some consideration. The salary increase will have to wait until next month, and he doesn't need to take out the money immediately, and if he gives out red envelopes, he has to take out cash immediately.

Now the number of newspapers is only about 20 people in total, the salary level is low in the newspaper industry, plus 20% to reach the level of large newspapers, Xia Yu is confident that the newspaper will become a big newspaper, the salary will definitely be raised in the future, but when the company is bigger, it has to raise wages, on par with other big newspapers; and now it is rising in advance, it can win people's hearts, and the gap between the two is out.

The effect of doing what you want to do in the future in advance is completely different, just because people's psychological expectations are different in different periods. If the newspaper grows stronger in the future, Xia Yu will not increase his salary, but will be complained by the employees; if the salary is increased and the other newspapers are on par, it will only be taken for granted, after all, the newspaper has grown with their efforts, and their status in the media industry has also improved, and they also have merit, and they will definitely want Xia Yu to increase his salary.

This is corroborated, such as those corrupt officials, who gave them a high status, but did not give them corresponding treatment, and if they were not satisfied, they would be moved, and then choose to take the initiative themselves.

One active, the other passive, Xia Yu prefers to hold the initiative in his own hands.

And now the salary level in Xiangjiang is about 300, even if it rises by 20%, one person will only be 360 Hong Kong dollars, and 20 people will have an additional salary expenditure of 1200 a month, which is still affordable for Xia Yu.

What's more, this salary will not be paid until a month, if the company goes bankrupt halfway, there will be no salary increase; but if the newspaper flourishes within a month and makes Xia Yu a lot of money, how can he be reluctant to pay an extra 1,200 yuan in wages?

It can be said that this salary increase is just a big pie drawn by Xia Yu in combination with his own reality, empty mouth and white teeth, but the employees who can deceive are round and round, grateful to him, and willing to work hard for him, he is also insidious!

After the employees were happy for a while, they looked at Xia Yu again, their eyes were much brighter, and they could feel the determination of the new boss, if they didn't want to forge ahead, there was no need to give them a salary increase.

"Now that the radish has been thrown, of course, a stick must be added, and the means of convincing the hearts of the people handed down by the ancestors are still very effective. The new official took office with three fires, the first fire must be burned vigorously to facilitate the next work, radishes and sticks, and the first fire is prosperous!" Xia Yu thought.

Then, Xia Yu smiled, his eyes became sharp, he glanced at the employees, and said slowly.

"Of course, it's still the same sentence, my money is not blown by the wind, why should I give you a high salary?"

"So don't sit back and relax, in my opinion, if you want to serve a good job, you must have enough value, if you think you are not qualified to get this salary, then I'm sorry, where to go back and forth, I don't raise people here who eat and wait for death! There are definitely many people who want this job!"

After listening to Xia Yu's words, everyone was stunned and realized that this money was not easy to take. But no one wants to give up, and now that you know that you can get a raise, it would be a shame to lose your job.

Therefore, they all made up their minds to work hard in the future, and not to be caught by the new boss.

Seeing the reaction of the employees, Xia Yu nodded, knowing that they had heard all his words in their hearts, and their prestige had been erected.

"Of course, you don't have to worry about my random layoffs, as long as you do your job well and do your job well, I will be satisfied!"

"Moreover, I have always been generous, and I have never been stingy with meritorious people, and you will find that as long as you have made enough contributions to the newspaper, not only will the salary be paid, but also the additional bonus, and the bonus will definitely not be less!"

"Did everyone understand?" Xia Yu shouted.

"Got it!" shouted the employees in unison.

"Hmm!" Xia Yu nodded and continued: "Okay, everyone go back to their posts, and the heads of various departments will come to my office." ”

After Xia Yu returned to the office, seven employees came in one after another, and after the last person came in, Xia Yu asked them to close the door.

"Let's introduce ourselves, so I can get to know you, starting on the left. ”

After speaking, Xia Yu looked at an ordinary-looking middle-aged man on the left.

"Boss, my name is Liu Zhong......"

"Boss, my name is ......"

......

After the seven people took turns to introduce, Xia Yu nodded and remembered all of them.

These seven people, Liu Zhong, who is both a financial and a cashier, is 40 years old this year, an ordinary-looking middle-aged man who looks relatively taciturn.

Sun Xin, 38 years old, has worked for Hong Kong Island Daily for 15 years, and the news department is responsible for writing and soliciting articles.

Zhao Cheng, 42 years old, has also worked for more than 10 years and has rich experience, and the department is responsible for text editing, commenting on news, art editing, picture editing, proofreading, typesetting and other work.

Sun Changfa, 34, head of the distribution department, is in charge of the distribution of the newspaper, because the newspaper has only three employees because of the low sales of the newspaper.

Li Bin, 36, director of the Communications Department, is responsible for conveying and implementing the newspaper's publicity and reporting plan, and is also responsible for the construction of external reporters and communication teams.

Huang Wenshan, 37, head of the advertising department, is responsible for receiving advertising business and producing advertisements, because the newspaper sales are low, he is the only one in the advertising department.

Zhang Lei, 42 years old, has been engaged in printing for nearly 20 years and has rich experience, and is the person in charge of the newspaper's printing center.

It is worthy of an old newspaper, although it has declined, but all departments are complete, and the skeleton of the newspaper is still there.

Moreover, these seven people have worked in the newspaper for at least ten years, and their experience and connections are not a problem, Xia Yu is very satisfied, and he can completely reform the newspaper with his hands and feet.

Then, next, it's time for Xia Yu to announce his plan......
