Chapter 80: Recruitment
Two trucks.
The maximum load is eighteen tons and twenty-two tons, respectively.
Transporting goods to the East Coast costs nearly $3,000 in freight alone, making it difficult to do business.
The continuous rise in oil prices indirectly prompts the price of other commodities to also rise, and the excess freight costs are eventually passed on to businesses and consumers.
This comparison makes rail transportation very cost-effective, and those railway operating companies on the stock market have been doing very well recently.
No one knows when oil prices will fall, and neither does Han Chudong.
He thought that he would ship it a few times anyway, and then he could ship it by rail to help the agents save unnecessary costs.
Therefore, I didn't bargain, and readily agreed to the offer made by Wang Hao's boss, and directly wrote a check to pay in advance, and then asked the agent for it.
The process went more smoothly than expected, and it was agreed that a car would be sent to the Lightyear Plastics Factory at noon to pick up the goods, and the aluminum yo-yos would also be sent there.
If nothing else, the journey will take three to four days, provided that the truck is accompanied by two or three drivers who take turns driving nearly three thousand miles.
Airplanes are quick and costly, and it is not cost-effective to transport such large quantities of goods.
There will be a lot of dealings in the future, so Han Chudong took a business card with him when he left, and once the other agents learned that they had the first supply to the businessman in New York, they would definitely call and question.
Therefore, it is imperative to seize the time to produce.
The feasibility of letting Boss Yang Guangnian hire some temporary workers, working in two shifts and three shifts, is being considered.
In the case of a significant increase in cost, it is actually more cost-effective, but it is more cost-effective to build factories in other places for production.
At present, Han Chudong is too busy, and after recruiting manpower, he will start to prepare for another suitable foundry in the near future.
Fisher Toys doesn't have to worry about him, part of the production and sales rights have been authorized to this company, and he can produce it himself, Han Chudong is just waiting to collect the money.
After leaving the shipping company, he had a headache about how to tell the agent that the shipping cost so much money, and perhaps he should suggest that the other party should slightly increase the price.
New York State is too far away from Los Angeles, and it will be much cheaper to send to Texas, Washington and other places, so finding a foundry on the East Coast should indeed be on the agenda as soon as possible......
Occasionally, Han Chudong will feel aggrieved.
He clearly has so many ideas and so many ways to make money in his mind, but he has to waste his precious time dealing with these trivial things, and no one can help him.
I regret that I didn't find someone to help in advance, even if I brag that this is a multi-billion-dollar project and attract some marketing college students to come over as interns.
These boring trivial things already made him feel impatient.
Therefore, I pay more attention to today's recruitment activities, and I want to find a few capable right-hand men to help, and when the time comes, I will send them wherever they want to help deal with some company affairs.
As a founder, you can't even arrange a small thing like shipping in person.
Although I enjoy the process of making money, it is better to be a little more relaxed, otherwise Han Chudong is worried that he will suddenly die one day.
In the past half a month, I haven't had much rest, and there is always something to do.
————————
Miss Kiko Mochizuki acts as a secretary, and after helping to pour her coffee, she looks at her watch again.
She felt that Han Chudong might be the kind of person who didn't have a sense of time, after all, when she interviewed her yesterday, the other party was late for a while, it was already nine fifty-five, and there were still a few minutes to go to the agreed interview time.
"What a waste of time, can you imagine that you have a Chinese boss? And it is said that he is very young, maybe he can't even speak English, I feel fooled, I know that I should sleep at home today!"
A middle-aged man with a beard said unscrupulously, and when he was about to come, he said:
"I can't imagine that I will come to this kind of broken company to apply, to be honest, I doubt that I can really give me such a high salary, probably because I drank too much alcohol last night, alcoholism, I lost my mind and rushed here, after hearing the word Chinatown, I should decisively refuse the talent of those headhunters. ”
Not only despises this inconspicuous office area, but also carries a bit of racial discrimination, which is very American.
Accountant Wang has obtained a serious university diploma, how can he not know English.
He was still young, and he couldn't hold his breath when he heard it, and at this moment the yin and yang were weird: "If you are suspicious, you can leave, and no one is stopping you, our boss has earned millions of dollars in more than a month since he started his business, what qualifications do you have to talk nonsense here?"
It was already very unpleasant.
The white man with the beard stood up abruptly, waved his hand and shouted, "Kiss my **!
After saying that, he left, and he didn't even look back.
Originally, there were other people who had similar thoughts, but when they heard the phrase that they earned millions of dollars in more than a month, they immediately put away a little contempt, as long as they were given enough wages and bonuses, even if they worked in the open air on the side of the road, it didn't matter.
At that time, Han Chudong didn't dare to find a very professional and experienced kind of person, and for these people who came for an interview today, the annual salary of more than 10,000 US dollars was quite attractive.
One of them asked, "How did he make that much money, do you know it's true?"
"It's more real than gold, the money passes through my hands, how could I not know.
Fisher Toys has heard of it, their product director begged my boss to sell them the agency, and the Super Magic Ball, which has been very popular recently, is one of our company's main products. ”
I don't have much of a sense of belonging, but it's a comfortable job.
Accountant Wang helped finish the good words, and whispered: "Come on, you'd better be serious during the interview, don't be like the stupid guy just now." Now no matter how many commodities are produced are not enough to sell, yesterday's wholesale money flow was 130,000 US dollars, and there will be more in the future, just sold the agency, the first batch of goods that have been booked are as high as more than 2 million US dollars, and your wages and bonuses are definitely indispensable. ”
As soon as I heard this, the group of people who came for the interview knew it in their hearts.
Han Chudong just rushed over in time, and after looking at them, he said with a smile: "Welcome, gentlemen, I have read all your resumes, it is better to make some additions." Don't waste time, one interview at a time, who will come first?"
Nine people were invited, but only six came today, and one left, leaving only five people to compete, all men.
There is no gender discrimination, and there are not many women in management today.
The feminist movement has only just emerged, and more women are working as salesmen, typists, teachers, nurses, etc., which is normal for people to see.
In this way, it is understandable why women's rights activities have become so frequent recently, they are seeking equal treatment and status, and some Hollywood actresses are constantly speaking out, and such reports are often seen in newspapers.
are all common questions, such as "how to develop the market", "why have the confidence to manage the company well", etc., combined with their previous work experience, Han Chudong got to know these people through conversations.
It went very well, the interviewees' questions were mainly focused on working hours and salary, and he thought that they would check each other, and the group would ask about the development of the Mango company, but they didn't.
Where can you guess that Accountant Wang has revealed in advance.
To be honest, Han Chudong is quite satisfied with these people, and their attitudes are also very good, revealing their desire for this job.
The short interview, which only lasted more than forty minutes, first asked them to go back and wait for the notification, saying that they would ask the secretary (Kiko Mochizuki) to call them at about six o'clock tonight to inform them of the results.
Sitting at my desk and pondering for a while, I wrote about a few jobs that were in short supply, and suddenly I felt that it didn't matter if I hired them all.
Selling toys is selling, selling appliances is also selling, and it is completely possible to arrange for Baofeng Electric to help......
