Chapter 121: Polestar Carnival
Yes, in order to prevent the leak incident that happened to K2 from happening again, Polestar did not publicize the news of the successful development of the S1, even within the company, only some middle managers in the R&D department and the restructured channel department knew about it.
Even tonight's celebration was low-key.
Xia Yu and the rest of Polestar executives were all in attendance, but he just said a few words of thanks and encouragement, and then watched as these lovely developers celebrated and relaxed.
But that doesn't mean that Xia Yu doesn't remember their efforts and credits, and he decided to surprise them at the next award conference.
Less than two months after the launch of the Polaris K2, the cumulative sales reached 200,000 units, the sales exceeded 160 million yuan, and the profit brought by it also exceeded 40 million!
This result is not too much to expect, but I have to be happy. So Xia Yu doesn't plan to be stingy.
According to his thinking, because Polestar Electronics is still in the early stage of development, and the core products drive the operation cycle, so the employee incentive is mainly awarded first, so as to maintain continuous and vigorous combat effectiveness.
The year-end bonus, directly in accordance with the traditional year-end double salary system, special three salaries, five salaries, etc., is not less.
He had already discussed this reward system with Li Xueqin, Xiao Wenjing and others, and it was unanimously approved at the regular meeting of senior executives. However, when Polestar is more mature and its business is more stable, it can be adjusted.
"Hey, what do you want?" Xiao Wenjing sat next to Xia Yu and asked in a low voice.
The two didn't want to make their relationship public so early, so they were still decent in front of everyone. Of course, it's nothing to make a little move, such as talking about small things with your head on your head now, which everyone has seen before, and it looks like a ghost to avoid it!
Facts have proved that as the person who dared to joke with Mr. Xiao Xia the most early on, Xiao Xueba's actions have long been accustomed to everyone. There was no "misunderstanding".
Xia Yu also lowered his head, and couldn't help but sniff the fragrance before saying, "It's nothing, this group of R&D personnel is very cute, the pillar of Polestar Electronics!"
After almost a month of high tension, it was finally time for these young people to relax, but apart from a moment of cheering in the afternoon, when they were more shy, they were just a few active spots wandering around.
Even the toast didn't make much noise.
Xiao Wenjing knew that Xia Yu had a good impression of workers and R&D personnel, which was probably the common problem and advantage of science and engineering men, but he still pouted and said: "They are all a group of stupid people who don't understand emotions." β
"Uh......" Xia Yu didn't know what to say.
Speaking of which, after watching the movie yesterday, he couldn't drive and asked the woman to send her home. Before leaving, I wanted to kiss goodbye, but I was kicked away, and I said what to say when you are an adult.
I'll go! Lao Tzu's real age is a year older than you, okay!
"By the way, when are you going to start the mobile phone plan you talked about before? That market is not simple, how to solve the access license?" Xiao Wenjing had talked to Xia Yu about this matter before, and she had been paying attention to it.
Since 1998, only by obtaining the mobile phone production license issued by the Ministry of Information Industry at that time can the Chinese government engage in mobile phone manufacturing.
However, this policy was finally loosened in 2004. After several discussions and relaxation, the "approval system" was finally decided to replace the original "approval system", that is, the National Development and Reform Commission verifies the qualifications of mobile phone manufacturing enterprises and issues mobile phone production licenses to qualified enterprises.
However, even in February 2005, the mobile phone license approval system came into effect. It also sets three thresholds for mobile phone manufacturers to enter the market, which is still strict, one is the registered capital of more than 200 million, the second is to operate continuously for more than two years, and the third is to have research and development capabilities, environmental protection and other related regulations.
These three. The third point is easy to say, the first point is not easy, and the second point has been in continuous operation for more than two years. It's even more Polestar.
Of course, Xia Yu thought about this, in fact, he also saw the opportunity for the implementation of the approval system and the current development of Polestar is on the right track, so he began to think about this matter.
As for the three provisions of the approval system, in fact, how can they be so strict, whether it is the merger of assets of several small companies, or the direct purchase of licenses from some companies, it can be bypassed.
And it's easy to say that the business time is a big deal, Polestar Electric will buy a small company, and then he will be the controlling company behind Polestar Electronics!
In short, these are not difficult, the difficult thing is to prepare early to pull up a team.
Because many loopholes can be drilled, the approval system did not adhere to a few years, and was officially canceled in 2007, and the final implementation is the two thresholds of mobile phone network access quality inspection and consumer complaint monitoring, completely replacing the mobile phone approval system.
Xia Yu knows these things, but it is inconvenient to talk to Xiao Xueba in detail, but it is enough to have a way to deal with the approval system. He said it briefly, then stretched out his hand and pointed to the front and said: "It's easy to talk about the license, the approval system is about to be implemented, and we will change when the time comes." Actually, what I'm most worried about is this ......"
It was a hand-drawn poster that hung up improvising, with a few cartoon words reading "Long live Polestar R&D!", drawn by a female designer on the spot before the celebration began.
Xiao Wenjing knew that he was referring to R&D strength, and the mobile phone market was much more complicated than the MP3 market.
I saw her raise her eyebrows, and also pointed to the other side, "Hey, isn't there this! The girl is good, my little superman!" and then reached out and pinched his back directly.
On the other side is also a poster, which was just drawn by another female designer, on which is a cartoon superman image, but it is obviously according to Xia Yu's appearance, and there are a few words on it: Long live Boss Xiaoxia!
"Hey, this is what they're messing around......
Xia Yu was caught off guard and didn't dodge, couldn't help but scream, but grabbed her hand! Xiao Xueba was shy in front of so many people, and quickly pulled back and glared at him.
But it's also said that the mobile phone market has a lot more understanding of Cheng dΓΉ and "memory", and it can indeed exert more power.
He's really looking forward to it.
β¦β¦
Because the production process is complex and the assembly process is also higher, the production and stocking of Polaris S1 are temporarily handed over to Polestar Factory No. 3, that is, the original Chunhui factory that was merged.
Fortunately, the contract to find Century Dongtang as an OEM has been issued, and the temporary production of K2 is also guaranteed, so there is no need to worry about running out of stock.
At present, the number of employees in Polestar has expanded to 70 in the first factory and 120 in the second factory, which has greatly improved the efficiency and yield rate. This was redefined after Xu Jiahui came over, and there were many improvement measures in management.
At the same time, Zhang Kui, who joined Polestar with Song Xiaogang, has now also detached himself from Factory 1 and taken the position of deputy director of the production department to sit on Xu Jiahui's deputy with peace of mind.
After all, Xia Yu didn't have to worry about these things.
He is now in a hurry to finish the matter at hand and prepare for the trip to the United States, so he is agreeing with Polestar executives about the K2 project award that will be held immediately.
Although Chinese people celebrate the Lunar New Year, they are about to enter 2005, and it is just when S1 breaks through and K2 reaches the sales target of 200,000 units ahead of schedule.
"Refer to the K1 standard. How about a 20% increase? Of course, there is also a special contribution award, which is another story. Otherwise, with so many people up and down Polestar, the expenses will be too great!"
After Xia Yu briefly introduced the situation, personnel manager Li Xueqin was the first to speak.
Xia Mingde also meant this: "It should be controlled." β
Of course, this Xia Yu knew, so he set the tone first: "Don't worry, it's not a year-end bonus, of course it's not a full payment." The personnel department and the administration department have basic performance appraisals, which is considered a reference, but it is still based on the results. For example, the R&D department and the marketing department. This time it's going to be a big prize. β
No one objected to this, and the tone was set, and the discussion was much smoother.
Xiao Wenjing's opinion is to limit the total number of bonuses and then divide them according to the number of places and contributions, while Liu Mingsheng said that departmental awards can be set at the meeting. Then the leaders of each department will distribute it by themselves, and Luo Dong also proposed a good idea: in addition to bonuses, you can also have more relevant honors and invisible assessment encouragement, two-pronged.
Yang Chunsheng and Song Xiaogang didn't talk much, according to Xia Yu's emphasis on research and development. Their department will not lose anything.
However, Xu Jiahui proposed that the reward amount for workers should not be too large, and the area should not be too wide, and the key rewards should be the mainstay. It should be counted separately from other administrative departments.
"That's what Mr. Xu said, but that's how Polestar gave out the award last time!" Xiao Wenjing couldn't help but remind.
"Then I'm fine!"
Xu Jiahui really stopped talking, but he also sighed that although Polestar was established not long ago, all kinds of talents and various systems are really the envy of ordinary people, and with Xia Yu, a genius, in the lead, it is really not an accident that the sudden emergence of the army is really not accidental.
After half an hour of discussion, a group of people combined the experience of the previous time and the latest developments of Polestar, and finally settled on a new program incentive scheme, and preliminarily established a charter that will serve as a reference specification for the future.
Among them, the total bonus amount is quantitative, based on the basic profit of the project during the award period of 3%, according to K2 is 3% of 41.1 million, 1.233 million yuan;
At the same time, according to Luo Dong's suggestion and everyone's unanimous agreement, the senior management who has participated in Polestar's share reform will not be included in the project award, but will be rewarded for special contributions at the end of the year.
This ensures that the bonuses to ordinary employees this time have increased by more than 20% on average compared to the last time.
This relatively complex reward system, that is, a group of selfless executives can work together to get it done so quickly, otherwise I really don't know how many brain cells Xia Yu will have to die.
Zhang Mei was the meeting record on the spot, and she was carefully recording it on the side.
She is also one of the veterans who has witnessed Polestar's journey from its inception to its current achievements, but she is not an executive, and this time as an administrative manager, she has also received more than 10,000 rewards.
Well, Xiao Xia really didn't forget us!
The girl thought stupidly.
At the end of the meeting, Xia Yu took advantage of everyone's presence to briefly talk about the matter and simple work arrangements for going to the United States to participate in the CES exhibition in a few days, and also officially proposed to put forward 32 million book cash and entrust it to Bluestar Venture Capital as asset appreciation management.
Except for some people who don't understand this resolution and don't care too much, plus Xia Yu's excellent performance in strategy, no one opposes it.
Xiao Wenjing also glared at him and didn't speak, but her heart was sweet.
So far, Bluestar Venture Capital is still a little secret between Xia Yu and her!
Because the number of employees has more than doubled, this time the "Polaris K2 sales exceeded 200,000 units celebration reward", naturally not a stupid on-site big discovery, but by the leaders of various departments from the finance department after receiving the money. So even though it's time to get off work early, no one is willing to leave.
However, when the vast majority of the company received a bonus of about one month's salary, and some personnel even doubled or tripled, they still couldn't hold back their excitement and whispered.
Soon, the first wave of sound dissipated reservedly, but it didn't take long for it to erupt from another place......
Everyone is also tacit.
The leaders of various departments are treated, let's go to the hot pot city!
On New Year's Eve 2005, Polestar spent the whole day in a carnival. (To be continued......)
PS: I stayed up late yesterday and woke up almost noon. I have to go out in the afternoon, and the second one is a little later.
