Chapter 451 Labor Dispatch

Nowadays, the performance of computer hardware is generally still very limited, which makes software programming display in a snail shell as a dojo, and it is necessary to compress the code as much as possible to improve efficiency! And the degree of simplification of the code written by a programmer is also one of the important criteria for measuring his technical level.

But as the performance of computer hardware has changed with each passing day, the host computer has begun to be able to run more and more programs. As a result, the importance of code reduction will gradually decrease, as long as it is kept within a certain level and not too outrageously bloated and inefficient.

For example, the Oriental Application Software Company, where you worked before, developed the East-DOS series of operating systems, and sold more than 10 million sets of them last year, and if its source code is leaked, it will inevitably cause serious economic losses!" Li Xuan asked with a smile.

"In my opinion, this is actually not a big problem! Commercial espionage is something that every big company has to guard against! For example, before I left the Eastern Group last month, it was like the group's supervisory department reported the boss who ate inside and out!

And a company like the Eastern Bloc actually has a very strict prevention system. In fact, the number of people who can really get into the company's core secrets is very limited! Although there are many commercial spies that are discovered every year, they rarely cause serious leaks.

The Eastern Bloc has had a lot of normal movement of people every month, and it has never caused serious losses as a result. For example, I was involved in the development of the East-DOS operating system, the core project of Dongfang System Software Company. But apart from asking me to sign a confidentiality agreement, the company did not set up any obstacles for me to leave my job and start a business!

And those that are outsourced to other companies to do the work. Obviously it can't be the core content. Therefore, the opportunity for outsiders to access confidential information is naturally lower than that of employees in their own company. It is even less likely to cause too serious consequences!

Outsourcing companies can also sign strict technical confidentiality agreements with Oriental Group. If necessary, you can even put your own employees. Directly dispatched to the Eastern Group to work, so that the Eastern Group can better carry out unified management!

In this way, these dispatched personnel are actually not much different from the employees of the Eastern Group itself! However, the Eastern Group does not need to provide these people with high wages and benefits!" Gu Jinhong said as his eyes suddenly lit up, and he threw out a new plan.

Li Xuan couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard this, he was naturally no stranger to this kind of labor dispatch method of employing people. In later generations, this kind of labor dispatch was actually very popular among many large companies in China. Especially in monopolistic state-owned enterprises, because the formal establishment of the company is very expensive, a large number of non-establishment personnel will be used.

For example, China Mobile's business halls in urban and rural areas. Almost all of the counter clerks who provide services to everyone are not China Mobile's own employees, but labor dispatch personnel of other companies, so it is impossible to enjoy the monopoly of high welfare benefits.

Even multinational giants such as Microsoft, whose companies in China in later generations have also adopted the habit of using a large number of dispatched workers. Of course, it is estimated that there is no need for Microsoft to enter China in this life.

For employers, labor dispatch can not only reduce labor costs, but also give enterprises more room for maneuver.

For example, the more famous and influential the company, the more cautious it has to be when it wants to lay off employees. For example, if the Eastern Bloc suddenly announces that it will abolish some jobs. It will surely attract the attention of the Hong Kong media and even the global media in an instant. There will be various speculations about whether the Oriental Group has incurred a performance loss, whether it is preparing for a strategic transformation, and so on, and even triggers sharp fluctuations in the stock price.

But it's not the same if there are many dispatched employees in the company, who are not employees of the Eastern Group in the first place. Naturally, there is no talk of layoffs. This allows the company to reasonably optimize the ratio structure of employees according to the needs of its own development.

Li Xuan couldn't help but feel a little more appreciative in his eyes when he looked at Gu Jinhong, this person's thoughts were a little ahead. But it is actually very practical for the Eastern Bloc. Most of Hong Kong's enterprises are at the bottom of the global industrial chain. Earn a small profit by selling cheap labor. So when the cost of labor in Hong Kong is rising, these companies have to move to other places where the cost of labor is lower.

But the Eastern Bloc is a little different. The company's core competitiveness is advanced technology and creativity. It firmly stands at the top of the industrial chain of the industry in which it is located, and continues to swallow enviable high profits. That's why Oriental Group has the confidence to offer a much higher level of preferential treatment in Hong Kong than the industry average to attract the best talent in the region.

Even so, the Eastern Group's salary expenditure in Hong Kong is only about one-third of that of its American competitors, and the cost pressure is not large. However, for any commercial company, reducing costs as much as possible without reducing efficiency is always a diligent goal. The Eastern Group is no exception, and the management needs to do its best to generate more profits.

In Li Xuan's view, this kind of technology outsourcing or labor dispatch can not only reduce the R&D cost of the Oriental Group, but also produce a catfish effect. There is now a general sense of pride among the employees of the Eastern Group, and some look down on their peers outside the company.

It is only when they find themselves around new faces who have only taken half of their salary, but who have achieved anything that is not inferior to theirs, that they will have a sufficient sense of crisis.

"Li Sheng, even if Gu Jinhong's idea is not bad, but a big man like Mr. Du of our company has a lot of opportunities, and he has no time or reason to trust a small company that has been established for less than half a month and the total number of employees is only in single digits! Unless there is a more powerful big man who can come to endorse Gu Jinhong!" Wen Zichao decided to help his friend, so he looked at Li Xuan with a hopeful face and said.

"Hehe! I can give you Mr. Du a call, but whether it can be negotiated depends on whether he has the ability!" Li Xuan also knew that this chubby young man had recognized him, so he smiled and said a word and got up and left, leaving Gu Jinhong confused.

"You really can't stop your luck!" Wen Zichao said excitedly, he saw that his friend hadn't reacted yet, so he had to uncover the mystery, "That one was Li Sheng just now, you are really nervous, I didn't recognize it!"

"Li Sheng, no wonder I think he is a little familiar, but he is too young and doesn't look like the one in the photo!" Gu Jinhong said in disbelief.

"Li Sheng's actual age is two years younger than me, so he is naturally younger! As long as he opens his mouth to give us a call, Mr. Du, your idea of programming outsourcing is probably not too much of a problem! But you'd better be well prepared, and you can't go wrong with being prepared!"

Wen Zichao patted Gu Jinhong on the shoulder, happy for his luck. If he hadn't happened to meet Li Xuan today, Gu Jinhong's idea would have no chance to be put into practice. (To be continued......)
