"Hey, Miss Cuihua li. I'm going to do a presentation at tomorrow's meeting, please do a PPT, Q1, Q2 Date, you revie first, try to focus on Incoming. You come over early tomorrow, call technical support, don't delay, OK? ”
After Fan Wuxian and Shen Ying ate, they returned to the hall, and when they were sitting and talking with a representative of Fenjiu Group, they heard someone talking there with an emphatic accent, and when they looked back, they saw a woman dressed as a white-collar worker standing there with a mobile phone and making a call, and she couldn't help but laugh.
"The little white-collar workers in the new era basically speak like this." Fan Wuxian said to Shen Ying with a smile.
The term white-collar workers was first called abroad, and then gradually this concept was also developed in China. White-collar workers are general office members, and the so-called white-collar workers mostly refer to those who work in the office and engage in mental work. White-collar workers in office work are also hierarchical.
In some big cities abroad or in China, there are many large enterprises with good benefits, high income, and stable positions. So white-collar workers are an enviable profession.
Most of them are well-educated, hired by their bosses because of their skills, they know how to dress up properly, they can stand alone at work, they are more observant in the face of the impermanence of the world, and their way of dealing with problems is more practical. By American standards, a white-collar worker is a person who earns more than $80,000 a year and is engaged in purely intellectual work.
Except for a few industries with strong technology, most white-collar workers are in an existential crisis. The imperfection of the labor system also makes it impossible for domestic white-collar workers to get the protection they deserve.
The metaphor of white-collar workers comes from the white collar in traditional office clothing, which is used to distinguish it from blue-collar workers, which means that white collars are quite easy to get dirty, so white-collar workers are used to represent that they will not easily stain their collars when working. It also means that you must dress neatly and not casually when you go to work.
However, in recent years, especially after the Internet began to take root in the hearts of the people, the dress of white-collar workers has gradually diversified, and many companies have also greatly relaxed the rules of work clothing, no longer limited to women's suits, and the stereotypical requirements of men's suits and ties.
It's like in many research departments within Fan's Investment Group, the dress code is just not too revealing, unless your clothing affects other people's vision and most people's values, and the company's management will not raise objections. You just walk around in a sack, and no one will look at you twice.
If you distinguish by salary, most white-collar workers receive a fixed monthly salary, while blue-collar workers calculate their wages by hour. In addition, the idea that white-collar workers enjoy higher salaries than blue-collar workers has gradually changed, and many white-collar workers have been redesigned by the new company policy to structure high bonuses and low base salaries.
In fact, with the prevalence of pragmatism, those skilled workers who can master a skill will be paid much higher than the white-collar workers who can only do these paperwork, even ten times the salary, and it is very stable, which was unimaginable before, and it can be seen that the times are changing too fast.
"However, this way of speaking is really a bit too contrived-" Shen Ying also felt that it was worth playing with and was very happy after listening to it.
The professionally dressed woman sensed that the people were talking about her, twisted her waist, and walked away in her seven-inch heels. But the black stockings were very attractive to the men's eyes, and at least everywhere they passed, everyone's heads turned around like sunflowers seeing the sun.
"Like, men can't resist the allure of stockings?" Shen Ying asked herself if she couldn't wear that kind of clothes, so she asked Fan Wuxian.
Fan Wuxian smiled and said, "Stockings are a symbol of power, women can conquer men when they wear them, and men can conquer banks when they wear them-"
The representative of the Fenjiu Group next to him immediately laughed when he heard this, "Mr. Fan is really humorous when he speaks, and he hits the nail on the head!" Conquer the bank, hehe-"
Shen Ying didn't understand at first, but only then did she react that the conquest of the bank that Fan Wuxian said was the black stockings on his head, and then went to rob the bank with a gun, this scene seems to be more common in Hong Kong and Taiwan TV dramas.
"Actually, nights like ours can be regarded as white-collar workers, but it's a pity that except for being able to eat and drink a little advantage, there is nothing to be happy about at other times, and the salary level is too low." The representative said to Fan Wuxian with some emotion.
At this time, he was waiting for news from the group headquarters to determine whether they would finally decide to buy the Confucian Banquet Winery, and by the way, he had a casual chat with Fan Wuxi, so as not to be given a head start by other companies.
However, Fan Wuxian and Shen Ying's mentality seemed to be relatively peaceful, and they didn't have any intention of rushing to get rid of it, Fan Wuxian also asked him, "Is the salary very low?" ”
"So low that I feel so low that I want to vomit." The other party replied, "The master of fried fritters downstairs in our house can earn six or seven thousand a month, with three years of breakfast experience." I could smell his collar with my eyes closed, yellowish. The guy upstairs who runs a small coal kiln is at least 500,000 a month, but I always think his collar is black. And the Porsche I often see in the underground garage, she never goes to work, as if she doesn't wear clothes with a collar in winter, low-cut, open-backed, so that her diamond necklace can be fully crystal clear, which is not considered a white-collar collar. ”
"Haha, you're much more humorous than me, and you're very life-like!" Fan Wuxian said with a smile.
Shen Ying also smiled, thinking that this person was very interesting, it seems that the people who engage in sales are generally the kind of anti-heaven characters who can talk nonsense about lotus flowers, which seems to be a universal law anywhere in the country.
However, the one still seemed to have a feeling of unfinished, "The little sisters in heaven and earth have a monthly income of at least 30,000 yuan, and they never need to wear collared clothes for their work. I think this white-collar white-collar worker actually means that he is also a white-collar worker after receiving his salary, and he has to rent a house, pay a mortgage, pay a mobile phone bill, pay a girlfriend, and pay medical expenses. At the end of the day, there's really not much money left. ”
"Your theory should be deeply analyzed by sociologists." Shen Ying interjected.
"Sociologists?" The one said with a smile, "When I was in college, a professor who taught sociology, he was very sincere, he said that sociology is not as good as studying society, and how to learn society is actually to mess around, to blind, first assume a set of theories, and then use phenomena to set theories, this principle is the same as the white wolf with empty gloves." The difference is that the white wolf with empty gloves can only be put on one at a time, and maybe it will be bitten by the wolf, but sociologists can set a society, and the children of our society are all well-behaved, if you swallow him, he will not have any objections, and praise you for warming people's hearts! ”
The three of them were talking here, and suddenly a small white-collar employee came over, and then said something in the ear of the representative, and the representative suddenly looked a little ugly after hearing it, and then said sorry to Fan Wuxian and Shen Ying, saying that there was an urgent matter that needed to be run out.
Fan Wuxian nodded, indicating that it was okay.
After the representative of the Fenjiu Group left, a deputy general representative of Moutai slowly walked over, said hello to Fan Wuxian and Shen Ying, then sat down and said to them with a smile, "Mr. Fan, Miss Shen, good two." ”
After a few words of greeting, the vice president said with a smile, "The two of you probably don't need to wait for the one from the Fenjiu Group any longer." ”
"Huh?" Fan Wuxian snorted and looked at him with some confusion.
"I just received the inside news that the liquor has been taxed!" The vice president said.
Just now, the state taxation department announced that it would implement a compound tax calculation method combining ad valorem and ad valorem for liquor. According to the new policy, on the premise of maintaining the current ad valorem consumption tax collection method of 25 percent and 15 percent of the ex-factory price, a consumption tax will be levied on each catty of liquor at an ad valorem basis of 0.5 yuan. At the same time, the current deduction policy that enterprises that purchase wine from abroad and blend it with wine to produce wine can deduct the consumption tax paid on their purchased wine.
As soon as the decree came out, the industry was in an uproar, and the remarks that "five cents to defeat the domestic liquor industry" and "small and medium-sized brands will withdraw from the market" suddenly became loud.
The liquor industry people attending the meeting suddenly exclaimed that the ice age of liquor has finally arrived, and the liquor industry will trigger a series of domino effects from now on.
"In order to find countermeasures, major wine-producing provinces have held emergency meetings to study how to reasonably avoid taxes and reduce losses." The vice president explained, "I'm going to have a video conference later, maybe at this time, the people of Fenjiu Group have already withdrawn first." Their liquor is run at a low price, and this time it was the most affected. Alright, you two, I'll take my leave. ”
"Could it be that my sale of the factory is so yellow?" Seeing that most of the representatives of the manufacturers had slipped away, Shen Ying suddenly felt very depressed.
"That's a good thing!" Fan Wuxian laughed.
Shen Ying reacted after a while, and then said with a smile, "Oh, it seems that in this case, low-grade wine will be hit the hardest, and as for our high-end products, won't there be a bigger market?" ”
In this way, Shen Ying's Confucian banquet wine will not only not be unable to sell because of the increase in taxes, but will also be expected to increase the price of high-priced wineries, and hope to expand production and expand sales channels, so mergers are imperative, and low-priced wineries will also need to expand their production scale and occupy a larger market share because of the expectation of market contraction.
I believe that after they react, everyone will still rush back, and then it will depend on who reacts the fastest and has the greatest determination.
There are no pop-ups
