Chapter 499: Difference in Philosophy

Jiang Xinxu nodded, said goodbye to them and headed to the airport, he had to rush to the capital today. X

Jiang Xinwei went to Beijing this time mainly to discuss the development and production of other household appliances with the Feixun Household Appliances Branch. The household appliances led by He Chenxian and Xiao Yuanyuan now only make one product, VCD.

However, VCD because of its good quality and new creativity, far better than the karaoke machines produced by the Japanese, so that the products are in short supply, He Chenxian and Xiao Yuanyuan and others are not busy at all, and the big trucks that come to ask for goods are more than two miles long at the door of their factory, and many people still want to pick up the goods through the back door with some people's notes.

He Chenxian and Xiao Yuanyuan are really painful and happy.

In fact, before the establishment of the compressor laboratory in the research institute, Jiang Xinwei once called He Chenxian and invited him to come to the company's headquarters in Zi'an City, saying that he wanted to discuss with him about the production of refrigerators and air conditioners. But He Chenxian rejected him at that time, saying that they were too busy to produce other products.

In desperation, Jiang Xinwei had to take time to find them, and he was very depressed in his heart: "How can a company that is determined to become stronger and bigger only produce one kind of product? How can it go to the world just by relying on VCD as a product? Don't you want to get rich, I'm going to force you to get rich!"

I have to say that pure intellectuals are still a little lacking in courage to do business, just as they are used to reading and doing logical problems, what they pursue is a matter of course, since VCD production and sales are booming now, then they should continue to do it, unless sales decline, it should be transformed.

For this conservative way of doing business, they also gave a beautiful label: do a line of love, and don't be ambitious.

When the boss arrived, He Chenxian and Xiao Yuanyuan had no choice but to leave their work behind to receive them, no matter how busy they were.

Jiang Xinwei, who was intent on making trouble, did not listen to their report on the production and sales of VCD at all, and the first thing he said was: "Tell me how you plan to expand production and how to produce other household appliances." ”

He Chenxian glanced at Xiao Yuanyuan, who lowered his head, and stiffened his neck and said, "Jiang Dong, we agree that it is not appropriate to distract our energy now. We should develop more VCD products, expand from one disc to two discs and three discs, and at the same time make the case thinner and more beautiful. At the same time, some improvements have been made in video compression......"

Jiang Xinwei interrupted him and said, "You can remember, we named your company as a household appliance, not a VCD factory!

He Chenxian retorted: "What's wrong with producing a product, we are striving for excellence? We can beat all competitors who produce VCD, which is also a pursuit, and the profit is not low." ”

Jiang Xinwei sneered: "Don't say it so high-soundingly, you think I don't know, you are just enjoying the pleasure of the product improvement process." To put it nicely, you are laughing at yourself, and to put it mildly, you are resting on your laurels, you are not trusting others. ”

He Chenxian said angrily: "Where am I resting on my laurels? Where do I look down on people? You ask Mr. Xiao, do I disrespect her?"

Jiang Xinwei couldn't cry or laugh, and said helplessly: "Ask her what's the use, she has the same problem as you." …… I appoint you as the general manager, not to ask you to do the work of ordinary technicians, I want you to do the work of general managers, I want you to do the work of general managers, I want you to manage the company, I want you to manage technical personnel, you should let them design, to innovate. As the general manager, the most you can do is to guide, guide, and audit. More than 90% of your energy should be spent on the development of the company. ”

He Chenxian was stunned for a moment, but then said: "But I like design." I felt happy every time I designed a new VCD, so I jumped headlong into it...... You're right, I'm a little self-congratulatory. ”

Jiang Xinwei said: "You have now dwarfed yourself into an ordinary technician, so why do I spend such a high salary asking you to manage this enterprise? Your salary is enough for me to hire ten technical developers!"

He Chenxian said very ashamedly: "Dong Jiang, if you don't let me manage the technology development department, I will give up the position of general manager and give it to Mr. Xiao." ”

Jiang Xinwei said: "Both of you have to change. You can't indulge in technology development, you have to leave the development work to the employees below. And Xiao Yuanyuan, if you can't be satisfied with the hot sales of this product, you won't want to forge ahead, and you won't see the crisis. Do you think that we have a VCD patent, and that if we are one step ahead of our competitors, you will be able to sit back and relax? With the development of computer technology to the present, VCD technology has not had too many thresholds, and those opponents with strong technical background will certainly appear one after another in the future, and you can only guard against it when the time comes. So, on the one hand, you have to speed up the expansion of VCD production and use all means to occupy the market, rather than hanging on to the appetite of consumers and trying to satisfy them slowly, so that you can make enough money. ”

Jiang Xinwei continued to say bitterly: "On the other hand, you have to work hard to find other products, not only to upgrade the VCD, but also to find a replacement for the VCD, but also to produce appliances that are completely different from the VCD. If you really don't have the energy and time, then buy related companies and merge related companies. You must not sleep in the cradle of success. ”

Xiao Yuanyuan snorted and said, "We are going to buy an electronics factory. They used to be the ones who produced the amplifiers. We let them produce amplifiers and loudspeakers. ”

Although Jiang Xinwei is not very interested in these two products, he is encouraged: "D entered the customer's living room, and he must buy power amplifiers and speakers, these two products can just reach the tailwind." However, you already know the meaning of my coming today, which means that you will listen to me and organize forces to produce refrigerators, air conditioners, and televisions. Because these two products have a higher technology content. The high technical threshold also means that there are very few domestic enterprises that can produce these household appliances, which cannot meet the needs of domestic customers, and can only allow foreigners' products to drive directly into them. ”

He Chenxian said worriedly: "I also want to defend the national industry, but are we too greedy to do this? The great philosopher Socrates once said, 'It is better to have a thousand birds in the forest than a bird in your hand'. Jiang Dong, I still advise you not to be greedy...... Don't make too much at once, the stall is too big to recover. ”

Soon, Jiang Xinwei lost his patience and said, "I have made up my mind about this matter. You only have two options now, either you listen to me and expand the company to produce more varieties of household appliances. Then you will continue to serve as the president and deputy general manager of this branch. Or, I'll downgrade your company to a subsidiary under the Household Appliances Branch. Rest assured, I will not take away your stake in this subsidiary, nor will I reduce the dividends you should receive on VCD products. But I have to take the dividends from those shares I own and invest them in the higher level of the subsidiary. ”

Jiang Xinwei prides himself on not engaging in charity, he doesn't care about helping that person when others are in trouble, but he is absolutely unwilling to help the same person for a long time. He can take others to get rich for a long time, but this person must also run with him, and he must be like-minded.

If He Chenxian still had the idea of being rich and peaceful, he would have to be sorry, even if he used to be a classroom at Beijing University.

He Chenxian and Xiao Yuanyuan were dumbfounded, they didn't expect Jiang Xinwei to say this.

Xiao Yuanyuan doesn't feel too much, for her, although she still agrees with He Chenxian in her heart, Jiang Xinwei wants to take another path, and she is not impossible. She was the one who came up with the idea of buying amplifiers and loudspeakers, and she wasn't entirely opposed to expanding the company.

But He Chenxian's inner reaction was mostly the same, he felt that Jiang Xinwei was too obstinate and stubborn. At a young age, he began to engage in the trick of those who go along with the prosperity and the death of the rebellious, and he does not respect the opinions of the "old man" at all, anyway, he is also a dignified university professor, and the company he is in charge of is in full swing, there is no merit and hard work, how can he be wiped out, and make himself think of old antiques, it is really too much.

It is not unheard of that the enterprise cannot be recovered after taking a big step, and finally leading to the bankruptcy and bankruptcy of the enterprise. Those companies specializing in the production of televisions, refrigerators, and air conditioners may not have a good life, and they will definitely be able to achieve good results if they are latecomers?

VCD factories are VCD factories, and there are many enterprises that produce a single product, so what's not to do? TV factories, cement factories, straw hat factories,...... Why can't we?

The arrogant He Chenxian gritted his teeth and said, "Dong Jiang, I admit that you have always been very correct in running the business, and it can be said that you are invincible. But in this matter, I think I'm doing the right thing. Professional manufacturers do professional quality, and the product quality is definitely more than those factories do countless products. I don't want to distract me, what you said about me He Chenxian is difficult to obey. If you are willing to downgrade our company to a subsidiary under the household appliances branch, I have no opinion!"

Hearing him say this, Jiang Xinwei, who was angry, admired him a little bit, admired his style and integrity.

Jiang Xinwei nodded and said, "Yes." I understand your choice. ”

He Chenxian stared at Jiang Xinwei's eyes and said, "Jiang Dong, if one day it is proved that I He Chenxian's approach is right, I hope Jiang Dong can say to me: I was wrong." …… Of course, I really hope that Jiang Dong's methods and ideas are correct, after all, it is good to enjoy the shade under the big tree, and I am willing to grow under the big tree of Jiang Dong forever. ”

Jiang Xinwei nodded and said, "Okay! If Professor He can develop and expand the VCD factory and make it a towering tree, I will apologize to you in front of all employees." You know, this professional factory is still my shares, the more money you make, the greater my income, I don't want to win face and lose the inside. Professor He, do you understand what I mean?"
