Chapter 207: Rectification and Thought
At this time, Liu Jun had nothing to say to Xiong Guangping, so he hurriedly uncovered it and said: "Old Xiong, Mr. Xia made a special trip this time to learn about the current situation of our R&D department, can you tell us about it?"
In fact, Xiong Guangping already felt that he had done a little too much at this time.
He had also exchanged his views on Xia Yu with Hua Yongqing before, although it was still early at that time, and Hua Yongqing had not yet decided to join Polestar, but his evaluation of Xia Yu was also very high.
Seeing Liu Jun give him the stairs, he glanced at Liu Jun with a little gratitude, and then asked Xia Yu: "Mr. Xia, Lao Xiong, I am still familiar with this acre and three points of land, what do you want to know?"
Xia Yu smiled faintly and said, "Mr. Xiong is free to introduce it." ”
"Oh, then I'll talk about it", Xiong Guangping said in a rough voice: "Our R&D department now has a total of 185 people, mainly divided into four groups, mainly communication group, function development group, testing group, and large design group. Among them, the test group had the largest number of people, about 60 people, and the others were about 30 or 40. ”
Xia Yu nodded and said noncommittally: "Well, what about the results?"
Xiong Guangping smiled embarrassedly: "That, although the R&D department has been established for more than a year, it was mainly for testing in the early days, and then it has been stranded due to the impact of performance, and it will only be a few months before the real work is carried out...... We now have two national invention patents, 12 provincial invention patents, and in addition, we are at the forefront of the country in the adaptation of communication modules, and we have several sets of quite good technical solutions......"
Peng Wenshan added on the side: "These are mainly led by Mr. Xiong himself, right?"
Xiong Guangping nodded: "It's almost, but everyone is quite hardworking." ”
Xia Yu shook his head: "This is Panda Mobile, which is known as the leading R&D department in China? I don't ask much about the use of invention patents, but a team of nearly 200 people only has a few communication module solutions, right?"
"Yes. Xiong Guangping's voice was obviously much weaker.
Xia Yu didn't let go, stared at him and continued to ask: "Tell me yourself, how many people in the R&D department of nearly 200 people are in the corpse position, taking money and not working?
"There are quite a few. There are a lot of people crammed into the design team and the testing team, but I guarantee that the other two groups are not weak!"
The more Xiong Guangping spoke, the more he lost his temper, and simply asked, "Mr. Xia." Do you need me to make some layoffs?"
"Oh, can you do it?"
"Of course you can! Without Li Anjian's pressure, this group of rabbit cubs dares to come out unconvinced, I won't do this chief engineer!" Xiong Guangping gritted his teeth.
"That's good!"
Seeing that the heat was almost over, Xia Yu took the initiative to stand up, stretched out his hand and said, "Then I'll wait here for the good news from Mr. Xiong!
Do it in one day?
Xiong Guangping felt that this young Mr. Xia's mind was really elusive, so he quickly stood up and shook Xia Yu's hand, and responded with a bright voice: "Okay!"
……
Coming out of Xiong Guangping's office, Peng Wenshan was the first to help but say, "Mr. Xia, don't we need to send someone to supervise?"
"No!" Xia Yu looked at Liu Jun and said with a smile: "Mr. Liu." What do you think the old bear will do?"
He can see that it should be true that this Xiong Guangping is excellent in theory and technology, but this temper and the style he has cultivated in government agencies and old state-owned enterprises are also a bit tricky.
Of course, if this kind of veteran cadre is used well, he can also be handy.
He was going to see the effect and come back and talk about it alone.
After having dinner with Liu Jun and Peng Wenshan, the three of them talked about the future development work. Taking advantage of this effort, it was also once again clarified that Peng Wenshan assisted Yang Chunsheng in the current A100. In Silicon Valley, Liu Jun coordinated the direction of music mobile phone research and development with Xiong Guangping.
Of course, this is only the current plan, and the future direction of R&D can continue to be discussed, and even the R&D department is officially independent to establish a R&D company.
Peng Wenshan stayed here for a while, and after eating, he went to visit the night view of Jinling together. Today's scenery on the banks of the Qinhuai River is also very good.
Xia Yu didn't have the effort, so the two of them went shopping and went back to the hotel by themselves.
When this side is busy, it will be followed by the selection of high-tech enterprises. On the one hand, Liu Na should prepare the publicity plan in advance with the public relations department, and at the same time, he is also preparing some materials to avoid being blinded when he gets it.
Speaking of which, this matter really can't be ignored. If it works well, it will also help Polestar Electronics in the future.
……
On the other side, after waiting for Xia Yu and them to leave, Xiong Guangping was also wondering about Xia Yu's thoughts, as for drinking that little wine at noon, he would have woken up a long time ago.
Listening to the meaning just now, the layoffs are certain, but why do you have full authority to yourself! Isn't this time the time for the new owner to show his face and show his means?
In any case, it is also necessary to reorganize the R&D department.
After thinking about it, he still called Hua Yongqing and asked about the situation of this Mr. Xia.
Hua Yongqing had already been "surrendered" by Xia Yu at this time, and now he had gone directly to East China to personally supervise the war.
As soon as he heard Xiong Guangping's meaning, he was immediately happy, and couldn't help but smile and said: "Old Xiong, your bull temper has been done again! But it's okay, Mr. Xia is very generous." Well, this person is very thoughtful and courageous, so he shouldn't be counted on this. ”
Xiong Guangping scolded with a smile: "You kid has been brainwashed like Liu Jun! Forget it, as long as you really attach importance to R&D work, I will be satisfied." ”
"This shouldn't be bad. At least from the perspective of their previous operation ideas in the MP3 field, R&D and design are definitely a very important part. Mr. Xia asked you to rectify the R&D department, isn't it what you have always thought? If you want me to say that you just let it go, it's definitely not bad!"
"Then I'm relieved. Brother Hua, we're going to fight side by side again in the future! By the way, what position did you hold in the past?"
"Hehe, Mr. Xia also attaches great importance to the market, and has just made the channel sales independent, and the younger brother is not the president of this subsidiary!"
"Yo, congratulations, you've finally come true for many years, yes! When will we come back and have two drinks?"
"Please spare me, I don't have enough alcohol to warm you up!"
Hanging up the phone, Xiong Guangping's mind let go a lot.
This kid didn't go along with Ma Zhiping in Tianchuang, and he was naturally restricted in every way, but he did a good job, and he also had a lot of support for R&D.
Because it is officially authorized by Xia Yu. He immediately called a few people in charge and began to work on the matter of laying off employees and rectifying.
Of course, these people are all henchmen who have seen their own eyes.
After confirming Xiong Guangping's meaning, they did not hesitate and immediately discussed the specific plan and personnel.
Xiong Guangping's instructions are very clear: the three types of people who take money and do not do things, old engineers who have a slack work attitude, and people who are really of average level should be listed and then discussed in a concentrated manner.
Although everyone has their own relationship, but under mutual supervision, everyone doesn't dare to hide it, and they start writing honestly.
As a result, although I usually have a good idea in my heart. But when the list was really listed, it still scared Xiong Guangping!
There were nearly 50 people!
"Old Bear, do you have to report this?"
"yes, don't we just want to kick those related people out?"
Xiong Guangping waved his hand: "Don't fight, just report it first......!
……
At noon the next day, Xia Yu and a few people came over on time, and soon saw this list of dozens of people. Seeing that Xiong Guangping specially classified these people into different situations, and wrote separate annotations for the key points, he smiled in his heart.
One-size-fits-all layoffs are really bad. Nor did he mean it. It seems that this Xiong Guangping is still knowledgeable in management.
And he also asked Peng Wenshang to find the two colleagues Fang Cheng and Sun Weitao, and also made a list of related households, the two basically coincided, and Xiong Guangping had a few more people.
He smiled and said, "Chief Engineer Xiong." All these people have been dealt with?"
Xiong Guangping said: "No." There are only 26 people in the first category, and I sent them directly, and these are all related households of the leaders of various departments in the past two years. For the rest, I think it will be available after mobilization, education, and skills training. ”
"Okay!" Xia Yu smiled: "Polestar is not a place to raise idlers, but it is not that it does not give people room to eat. As long as the talents meet the standards, we will welcome them! Everyone is here today, can you summon me and say a few words?"
Seeing that Xia Yu was satisfied, Xiong Guangping's hanging heart also let go. Immediately said: "Okay, Mr. Xia will rest for a while, and I'll arrange it immediately!"
Because most of them are locals, and Xiong Guangping sent out the layoff notice yesterday, the 20 or so people who have been notified not to go to work packed up their things and withdrew this morning.
This is also Xiong Guangping's prestige, and after Jinling Panda was determined to be sold, they had already thought of this result, so except for one or two people who were unconvinced and were personally pressed down by Xiong Guangping, no one made any more trouble.
To put it bluntly, everyone is working together, who can still be unclear about what appearance?
But the remaining more than 150 people are quite reassuring, and now the panic after the acquisition rumors have passed, and there is no one in the layoff list!
This will be notified that a meeting is going to be held, and all kinds of whispering are indispensable.
"Who the hell do you say this new boss is?"
"Isn't it from the MP3 company Polestar Electronics? I spent more than 600 million yuan to take over this stall, and the funds are abundant!"
"But the problem is that now the mobile phone market can't even hold up the old domestic companies, what can a new company do?"
"Hey, who knows, but if we pay enough attention to R&D, we won't be idle. ”
When they finally came to the conference hall, they saw Xiong Guangping and several department leaders talking to people in front, and everyone quieted down.
Of course, all kinds of thoughts are still indispensable.
Xiong Guangping briefly introduced Xia Yu's identity and stepped down from the stage and handed the podium to Xia Yu.
Xia Yu walked up unhurriedly, looked around at the dense crowd under the stage, and Chen Mo said slowly after a few seconds: "My name is Xia Yu, the president of Polestar Electronics, and your future boss. (To be continued......)
