There should be a few book friends who voted for the monthly ticket, but unfortunately I can't see the name anymore. Thank you very much. Thank you for the reward from the book friend Yi Hanxing.

Happy National Day to all! There will be no interruption during the National Day, can you give me a few monthly passes? :

The door knocked softly, and then Lin Lian walked in lightly with a bowl of soup. Fang Mingyuan's secretary has been a secretary for so long, Lin Lian naturally knows that when Fang Mingyuan is working, he likes to be clean. I don't know how he developed this habit. At home, I don't like to sit on the sofa, I don't like the boss's chair, but I like to sit on the windowsill for this reason, and the window of this room has been specially redecorated.

These days, although Lin Lian was still busy with the opening of the Beijing branch of the Fang family's restaurant, she also noticed what problems Fang Mingyuan's eyebrows were locked from time to time. At a young age, you have to work hard for your family in society like an adult, and thinking about it makes Lin Lian's heart ache. Think about yourself at this age. Although the family is not wealthy, he still lives a carefree life because he doesn't understand the hardships of the world.

When she came to the capital, Mr. Fang and his wife specially summoned her, and repeatedly told her that she must be optimistic about Fang Mingyuan, especially to pay attention to his physical health, Fang Mingyuan is still in the stage of growing his body, and this nutrition and sleep must be guaranteed. The old lady of the Fang family's instructions, Lin Lian naturally took it to heart. So these days, even if Lin Lian is tired when she returns home, she will try her best to make some supper for Fang Mingyuan and them. Chicken soup is often boiled in the kitchen. Although most of those meats were cheaper than Chen Zhong, Wei Xingguo and Liu Yong.

Fang Mingyuan heard the movement and turned his head to see that it was Lin Lian. Hurriedly jumped down from the windowsill, stepped forward and stretched out his hand and said, "Sister Lian, it's good that you beckoned me to drink it when you are ready, you don't have to send it to me every time." ”

Lin Lian avoided his outstretched hand and said continuously, "Don't take it anymore." Scald! "The chicken soup out of the pot is full of aroma and makes people appetize when they smell it.

"Sister Lian, sit down and talk. The restaurant decoration is about the same. When do you plan to open? Fang Mingyuan asked casually.

"Well, it's coming to an end, and in another month and a half, everything will be ready." Lin Lian sat opposite him and said with a smile. Watching a store slowly reveal its true face in her own hands, the sense of accomplishment filled her heart with joy. A year ago, I was afraid of beating her to death, and she would not have thought that she would also be a manager in a restaurant in the capital.

The branch of Fangjia Restaurant in the capital, although the name is still Fangjia Restaurant, but this area and pattern are shotguns for guns, which is not the same as those branches in Qinxi Province. The entire three-story building has been bought, and the business area is more than 400 square meters, excluding the kitchen and workshop, which is enough to accommodate hundreds of customers to dine in the store at the same time. And the service staff in the store, mixed up, there are seventy or eighty people. Such a scale, let alone in Fengyuan, even in the capital, in the nineties, it can be regarded as one of the leaders in the industry.

"The executive assistant manager or something has been hired?" Although Lin Lian will be the general manager of the branch, her main job is still Fang Mingyuan's secretary, so the store also needs a senior executive who can sit in charge for a long time. According to Fang Mingyuan's meaning, in addition to some of the chefs and waiters in the Fang Family Restaurant, there are also two treasurers who were transferred from Qinxi, and the rest were recruited in the capital.

"Well, he'll be in the store tomorrow to officially report in." Lin Lian's words could not hide her joy. Although she is not alone in dealing with the affairs of the restaurant at the moment, she still feels that she has a lot of pressure on her shoulders. The arrival of this permanent deputy manager can relieve her of a lot of transactional work. These days, she has been so busy that she can finally take a breather.

"Fang Shao, all the cadre positions in this restaurant have been recruited, but there are still more than a dozen vacancies for the position of waiter. Are we going to recruit another group of people from Qinxi? Lin Lian asked tentatively. The young women in this capital have too high a vision. There are nearly half of the cases of recruiting waiters. After a month, there are not many local young women of school-age in the capital who come to apply, and those who can sign employment contracts are all from the suburbs of the capital, the fourth district of the city, and even the eighth district of the city. And the conditions given by the Fang family restaurant. Among the peers in the capital, it is definitely a high salary.

Fang Mingyuan pondered for a moment, this result was not unexpected by him, the people of the great state land under the feet of the Son of Heaven, this arrogance was innate. It's not surprising that you're reluctant to do this kind of errand of serving dishes and washing dishes. After all, in the nineties, the employment situation was not as severe as it was in the previous life. Although it is very convenient for him to recruit young women from Fengyuan in Qinxi, Fangjia Restaurant is now a well-known restaurant chain enterprise in Qinxi Province, and the employees not only have high salaries, but also good benefits, so every time they recruit workers, they are carefully selected. Pull more than a dozen over, that's not Lin Lian's words. But Fang Mingyuan didn't want that

Do.

If an enterprise really wants to take root in one place, it must use a large number of local left, which is a rule that has been verified by the experience of countless enterprises in previous lives. Besides, the capital is so big, if you open a branch in a district, you have to open at least eight stores.

It's impossible to recruit middle-level cadres for every store to open, right? Moreover, it is not easy to get the real recognition of the employees. Second, there is no cultivation of the company, and the recognition of the corporate culture is not high. It also takes a certain amount of time to block the energy to dissolve into the enterprise. For the first branch of Fangjia Restaurant in the capital, Fang Mingyuan attaches more importance to its signboard and cultivation function. These waiters from Qinxi Province are recruited, and young women in the capital are also recruited. In the future, they will be candidates for the middle and high-level cadres of the new branch of Fangjia Restaurant.

"Then relax the conditions and recruit some laid-off female workers under the age of 40 who have a good image. Let them be responsible for sanitation and cleaning full-time. Fang Mingyuan is not discriminating against older women, but the reality of the catering industry in China is determined. The more high-end hotels and restaurants, in addition to the kitchen and health staff, only middle and high-level cadres can use older women, and the front desk, waiters, and doormen must use young women. Otherwise. It will affect the flow of passengers. Who made the phrase "beautiful and delicious" so deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in China.

Even foreign fast food such as McDonald's and KFC strictly implemented this rule when they first entered China. The employee in charge of collecting money is called a water spirit. It was only after 2,000 years that the bar was lowered because their position in the Chinese fast food market had become as stable as Mount Tai. By the time it comes to the year 210, it won't need to be mentioned.

Fang Mingyuan still remembers very well that in his previous life, two thousand years ago, there was a Chinese fast food that was popular in China, and there were also its branches in the capital at that time. Fang Mingyuan once went to the store, the store is the old aunt of Yishui, and the store is not as bright as McDonald's and KFC, although the quality and taste of the food are good, but compared with the KFC on the side, the gap between the two is simply clear at a glance. As a result, less than half a year later, the store of this Chinese fast food was replaced by McDonald's, and Fang Mingyuan has never seen this brand in the capital since then. Since it is not possible to recruit enough waiters in the capital in a short period of time, it is necessary to accept some laid-off personnel, which can be regarded as a meager contribution to reducing the number of unemployed people in the capital.

"Laid-off female workers?" Lin Lian was a little surprised. But her father had a similar experience himself. For these people who can only get the minimum wage and are unemployed, they naturally have a lot of sympathy, so they nodded and agreed. The economic situation in the capital is naturally much better than that of Fengyuan. However, the general economic situation of state-owned enterprises is generally poor, and there must be laid-off female workers in the capital.

Fang Mingyuan pondered for a moment, the problem of laid-off workers in his previous life first appeared in the late 80s and early 90s, and it was not called laid-off at the beginning, some places called "leave without pay", some places called "unemployed in the factory", and some called "not looking for a long vacation" and so on. It was not until the mid-to-late 90s that the problem of laid-off workers began to emerge as a social and economic phenomenon, and it aroused widespread concern from all sectors of society.

In order to solve this problem, the state has also introduced many related policies such as tax exemption and exemption, preferential industrial and commercial registration, preferential administrative fees, and preferential credit policies. During that period, enterprises that could effectively help the government solve the problem of reemployment of laid-off workers would receive special attention from government officials. Fang Mingyuan had read a piece of information in his previous life, which was calculated according to the statistics of the government's labor department: In '93, the number of laid-off workers in the country was about 3 million, but in '97, it exceeded 10 million, by '99, it exceeded 20 million, and in 2001, it was close to 30 million. As for how much water there is in this report, Fang Mingyuan is too lazy to think about it.

Fang Mingyuan's parents in his previous life, although they had not been laid off, they had also been worried about this, and he still remembered clearly that there was a period of time. My father was very hot-tempered at that time, like a medicine twister, igniting a fire, and sometimes losing his temper to himself inexplicably, and later he learned that during that period of time, it was the time when the factory was making noise to lay off a large number of workers. In his previous life, the uncle was laid off early, and he could only find pocket work outside to support his family. Now in this life, although his parents and uncle no longer have to worry about this, Fang Mingyuan still plans to help these people as much as possible.

"Sister Lian, you will draft a notice in a few days. It is required that all the industries of the Fang family in China in the future will be in the positions that those laid-off workers can be qualified for. Priority must be given to the recruitment of laid-off workers. Then send it to the uncle, and don't move the previous posts. In the future, the newly created post, after satisfying the military and police families, let him strictly implement it in Qinxi. ”

Lin Lian's face showed a look of surprise. As Fang Mingyuan's secretary, she is now also a middle and high-level cadre in the Fang family's industry, after more than a year of training and study, coupled with the careful guidance of Yu Qiuxuan when she was in Hong Kong, Lin Lian is no longer the narrow-minded factory worker. Most of the laid-off workers who are difficult to get off are older, mostly in their forties and fifties, and these people have been working in factories for many years. has developed a lot of bad problems in the eyes of Lin Lian, who has experienced a trip to Hong Kong, and it may take a lot of time to get them to adapt to the rules in the Fang family's industry. And after all, these people are old, no matter how neat their hands and feet are, or how fast their brains react, they can't be compared with young people. And when they get used to it thoroughly, it's not far from their retirement. Rather than hiring these people, in terms of cost and efficiency, it is really better to hire plasticity

The good thing is that with Fang Mingyuan's status in the Fang family, this document is not so much a notice as an order, and it will definitely be implemented by Fang Bin without discount, and with the development speed of the Fang family's industry, within a few years, it will definitely be able to absorb a large number of laid-off workers in Qinxi Province, in this way, for these people who have contributed their youth to the country, it is more or less a compensation, at least so that they can have income to maintain a normal life. And Fang Mingyuan took the lead in helping laid-off workers. With his influence in the future, more people will surely join this ranks. That kind of pitiful life was only a little more than a year away from Lin Lian, and she still deeply remembers her helplessness at that time. "Fang Shao, I'll xiexie you for those poor people!" Lin Lian stood up and bowed deeply to Fang Mingyuan. Fang Mingyuan turned sideways slightly, and accepted her salute half-pushed and half-on-the-spot.

"Sister Lian, didn't I say it, don't be too young and too little, you can call me Mingyuan." Fang Mingyuan said helplessly, this is not the first time he has mentioned this issue.

"Thank you don't need to thank you, what I can help is just a drop in the bucket." Fang Mingyuan shook his head again and again, thinking of the number as high as thirty million. Anyone is sure to have a headache.

Lin Lianyan smiled and said, "Fang Shao's words reminded me of a story. That's what I heard in Hong Kong. When the tide subsides, there are always some fish and shrimp left on the beach, and there is a boy. Just walk on the beach and throw the fish and shrimp you see into the sea."

Fang Mingyuan has also heard this story, and someone persuaded this child, the sea is so big, the beach is so long, and there are so many fish and shrimp left on the beach every day because of the low tide, what is the point of him doing this? And who cares? The boy picked up the fish, threw them into the sea, and said, "It will care." It will also care. They're all going to care."

Fang Mingyuan and Lin Lian looked at each other and smiled, do more and do less, as long as you have a clear conscience.

Fang Mingyuan looked at his watch, Zhao Ya and they should also be back soon, and asked casually, "How is Lin Rong doing lately?" "This is also the beginning of school. I should have come back early, but I didn't see her come here to report.

Lin Lian smiled and said: "It's okay, she called me and asked me to go to her university to play, how can I have this leisure now." Listen to her. Two days before returning from Lishanlin, Hou Ming looked for the eldest sister again. ”

"Hou Ming?" Fang Mingyuan seemed to be a little familiar with this name when he heard it. It seems to have been heard somewhere.

"It's the eldest sister's original fiancé, and later he went to my house to break up and ask for a bride price." Lin Lian sneered. Fang Mingyuan thought about it all of a sudden, he didn't have a deep impression of Hou Ming. But he remembers his father Hou Aiguo and the shrew quite clearly. He also made them lose 9,000 yuan, but that money was later given to the orphanage.

"What is he looking for your eldest sister for?" Fang Mingyuan had a very bad impression of the Hou family, and couldn't help frowning.

"What else can I do? I told my eldest sister that it was not his intention to withdraw from the marriage at the beginning, but it was forced by the family. also said that he still can't forget his eldest sister for more than a year. I want to break the mirror and reunite. Let my dad get out. Lin Lian said with a look of disdain. At the beginning, the Lin family did not approve of the marriage between the eldest sister and Hou Ming, and after the divorce, the impression of the Hou family was not to mention. Now that the Lin family has a house, Lin Rong has also gone to college in the capital, and the family has a good job and a rich and fulfilling life. His Hou family wants to get married again, how can there be such a good thing!

For the Lin family's family affairs, Fang Mingyuan didn't say much, aiqing is the most unreasonable, it's better than his mother's football!

At this time, the phone in the house rang, an international call, and Aso Kazuki called. The good news to Fang Mingyuan is that Nintendo and Sega are in talks with the company to introduce Zuma and Bubble Bobble to their handheld game consoles.

"Handheld game consoles?" Fang Mingyuan then remembered that Lao Ren's had already been listed last year. And this year, it seems that Sega is also going to release a handheld.

"They all want to have both games exclusive on the handheld. For now, though, Sega is bidding a bit higher. Aso exclaimed excitedly. This year, she has shined in the Japanese game industry, with Fang Mingyuan's continuous sales of one by one, the Japanese in the game industry no longer have any discrimination against her because of her gender, as the agent of the author of the best-selling games that have sold several works in Japan and internationally, the Japanese who advocate the strong are naturally polite to her.

However, Aso Xiangyue is not an idle person, in the past year, just by licensing various game images, she brought back nearly millions of dollars in income to Fang Mingyuan. Naturally, she herself is also making a lot of money.

Fang Mingyuan used his brain, both of them wanted to monopolize it, so of course they had to choose Nintendo. When Nintendo was at its peak, it was almost unstoppable, and it wasn't until Sony made a dent that it threatened its place. However, it is still the undisputed leader in the handheld market.

"Aso, don't worry about Sega, their handheld will definitely not be an opponent in the future." If a good game chooses the wrong console, the consequences are self-evident.

"Aso, I have an idea, can you help me talk to Nintendo, I want a production license for the red and white machine!"
