Chapter Seventy-Eight: Peng Jie
Half an hour before getting off work in the afternoon, Li Jianguo of the Finance Department reported the project arrears and the payment for one and a half years that Tao Tang wanted, Tao Tang didn't even look at it, and directly put it into the folder, "Director Li, please take a seat, I want to know about the company's reimbursement regulations for meals, you can tell me about it." ”
Li Jianguo sorted out the next thoughts, "there are three big channels, one is the factory office, the company's two hotels are handled by the general manager's office, a summary every month, after your signature to the financial account, belonging to the company's leaders and full-time deputy chief engineer, go to the general manager's office funds, belong to each unit, go to each unit expenses." The second is to dine outside, which is handled according to the channel in charge, and reimbursed after being signed by the leader of the company in charge, but a formal invoice is required. Third, if the leaders of each unit or company dine in a hotel designated by the factory except for the guest house, the reimbursement channel is the same as Article 2. That's pretty much it. ”
"Hmm, what do you mean by a designated hotel other than a guest house?"
"That's right. Limited to reception capacity, sometimes go to other hotels in the factory to eat...... Now there are dozens of hotels in the factory area, and it is too chaotic and not easy to do, so I selected a few good software and hardware, and the official reception can only go to those hotels......"
"How many?" Tao Tang asked.
Li Jianguo became nervous and thought for a while, "It should be five, let me verify ......"
"Director Li, don't you think this kind of management is too messy? How can you limit unnecessary feasts? ”
"The first is to control the approval process, and the second is to ...... cost indicators"
"So, are there any overbills?"
"Yes. For example, the production department is overspending almost every year. ”
"So what to do?"
"What can I do? Additional fees are required. Mr. Tao, because of this, I am almost a rat crossing the street. ”
"What is the average monthly reception cost this year?"
"I can't remember the exact number, but there are always 500,000 ...... a month"
"500,000? Take your time to look it up. When I talked to Mr. Han about the budget in the morning, I made a point that the wind of eating and drinking must be stopped, not to make an appearance to the top, but that we will collapse if we continue like this. You participated in the pre-holiday budget meeting, and you know best about the financial plate, and the non-production funds are too high...... Let's start with eating and drinking, I don't know if Mr. Han has arranged it, you can do it, first, we must re-examine the reimbursement regulations on business activity expenses, and resolutely revise unreasonable places. Second, before the new system is discussed and introduced, the existing system must be strictly implemented, and those who do not comply with the regulations are not allowed to register their accounts. ”
"Done. Mr. Tao, when it comes to business activity expenses, the problem is mainly in the marketing mouth, and the finance can't control the marketing, so how much money is spent and where it is spent, it is completely up to them to decide. You gave the example of the institute at the budget balance meeting, and I would like to see that it is a drop in the bucket compared to the marketing department. The staff has a lot of opinions about this......"
"The purpose of establishing rules and regulations is to solve the chaos. This time, you should also take into account the revision of the system. ”
"Mr. Tao, if you want me to see, it's better to get a pen. Otherwise, it can't be controlled at all. ”
"No, no, I don't want that right. That's not a right, it's a responsibility. The red star is too big, are you going to exhaust me? Let me tell you, I will not only ignore those bad things, but also solve the so-called chaos at present. Of course, the vice presidents have to take responsibility, and I am only responsible for supervision, and whoever does not implement the system well will criticize and punish him. Don't want a pen, never. ”
"Okay, then."
"One more thing, before the holiday, the Finance Department reported to me a copy of the East Lake product price approval form, I read it, and I was very satisfied. But the follow-up work to keep up, the finance department is in charge of the cost, to achieve this price, cost control is the key. I don't know what you've done, and I ask you to take it personally...... What is market first, user first, this is. This month's product East Lake market accounts for a large proportion, cost management and assessment to keep up, understand? ”
"Understand ......" Speaking of the price list, Li Jianguo was angry, and Ming Xiaoyue made an immortal jump behind his back and ruthlessly commanded his army. Rong Shangming, as the cost section chief, jumped more than once, but Li Jianguo couldn't get angry with Ming Xiaoyue, because the highest level appreciated her works. Now that Tao Tang has once again affirmed Ming Xiaoyue's work, what can Li Jianguo say?
"By the way, I've always wanted to talk to you, but you're still determined to mention a deputy director?"
"Yes, I have reported the reason to you......" Li Jianguo's heart moved, and he suddenly became nervous, could it be that Tao Tang took a fancy to Ming Xiaoyue? Now it's a problem.
Several section chiefs of the Finance Department are not fuel-efficient lamps, Shi Cheng is Han Zhiyong's descendant, but Ming Xiaoyue is next to Zhao Qingmin's thick legs, and the rumors about Ming Xiaoyue and Zhao Qingmin are no longer news. Only Lao Rong is obedient and can be regarded as his own person, Li Jianguo has been planning to bring Rong Shangming to be his main assistant in business after Quan Jianhe was dismissed, so he did not hesitate to risk losing points and went to Tao Tang's residence to lobby for Rong Shangming, and now it seems that things are very troublesome......
"Okay, I'll discuss with Secretary Zhao and arrange an inspection in the near future." Tao Tang has finished the conversation.
After Li Jianguo left, Tao Tang silently sorted out the current thorny problems, arranged the order of several things that must be done, and asked Li Zhibin to call Liu Xinjun and Jiang Yansheng.
Soon, the heads of the two major departments of production and distribution came to Tao Tang's office one after another.
"You may be seated. I called you here to mention this month's production and assessment. Production and planning are the two major functional departments of the company, and the two of you can also be said to be the right-hand man of me, the general manager. He stared at the two, "This year's indicators are very difficult, and it's hard to explain to the top and bottom." So from now on, to set off the first step in production, Director Jiang, your task is to complete the order to the letter, and Director Liu, your task is to strengthen the assessment of the completion of the monthly operation order of the production department. The reason why I asked the two of you to come together is to make it clear that the planning department (the planning department is more accustomed to being called the planning department within the company) is in charge of the assessment and supervises the completion of the production indicators for me. It is necessary to strengthen the assessment mercilessly. ”
Liu Xinjun and Jiang Yansheng glanced at each other and did not say anything.
"The order for May must be completed, and the output value is 600 million. And to ensure quality, not sloppy in quality. If the quality department issues a shutdown order, I don't care, I want an output value of 600 million yuan......" Tao Tang paused, "I want to change the assessment method, weekly assessment, doesn't the production department have a weekly plan?" Director Liu, you will keep an eye on his weekly plan for me, and issue a notice if it is not completed, but no penalty, keep accounts, and cash it out at the end of the month. I see? ”
"Understood," Jiang Yansheng said loudly, "Please rest assured Mr. Tao, as long as the materials and foreign cooperation funds are in place, I am willing to make a military order." ”
"No problem, we will assess it on a weekly basis, and the results will be reported to you." Liu Xinjun said.
"I'll just be able to report the report." Tao Tang smiled, "You can't just punish and not reward." If the homework order is completed with quality and quantity, Director Jiang, you can bring me a list of rewards. ”
"Please rest assured. I, Jiang Yansheng, don't eat or sleep, and I'm going to take down 600 million! ”
"Alright, I won't waste your time. I'll wait for the result I want. ”
After Jiang and Liu left, Tao Tang dialed Zhao Qingmin's phone, "Secretary Zhao, no, just talk about it on the phone." There are a lot of things going on in the finance department this month, so I think it's better to assign them a deputy director. Yes, I'll talk to you, and if you agree, let's get into the program. No, other units are not considered. Who do you see talking to the organization department? Well, I'll talk about it. ”
Tao Tang put down the phone and asked Li Zhibin to call Peng Jie, the head of the organization department.
It is said that the head of the organization department is a very important position, and the head of the organization department should maintain close contact with the top leader, but Tao Tang has been in office for almost a month, and he has not had a deep conversation with this burly, kind-hearted middle-aged man. Tao Tang did not make an appointment to meet Peng Jie, and Peng Jie did not take the initiative to report to Tao Tang, except for the meeting when Tao Tang just came to the Organization Department to ask for a list of cadres, and Peng Jie personally sent it to Xiaozhao, the two did not meet alone.
"Comrade Peng Jie, please be seated." For this organization minister and member of the party committee, who seems to be not young, Tao Tang is extremely polite.
"What do you want from Mr. Tao?"
"Two things," Tao Tang smiled, "the first is about the method of strengthening the management of middle-level cadres, did the Organization Department come up with a specific opinion?" ”
This matter was arranged at the first general manager's office meeting, and it has been half a month.
"I'm sorry Mr. Tao, the draft hasn't been finalized yet." Peng Jie, who spoke with a strong Xiqin accent, said slowly, "I understand that Mr. Tao, you mean to combine a series of new policies since the 18th National Congress of the Central Committee, so you are more cautious and slower." First of all, we have sorted out the regulations on cadre management issued by the company in the past five years, and there are as many as 17 of them, all of which have not been repealed and are effective, but there are many inconsistencies and even contradictions. My idea is that what is going to be introduced this time is not only to keep up with the situation, but also to be in line with the company's current situation, so the progress has been slowing down, and recently I have been checking the implementation of the system below, in order to find out the problem......"
"The idea of the organization department is correct," Tao Tang affirmed, but he did not say that Peng Jie's thinking was correct, but recorded the "credit" in the name of the organization department, "The policy on cadre management cannot be changed overnight, you can continue to investigate, we are not in a hurry." Since the new policy is to be introduced, as you said, it must not only conform to the new spirit of the central government, but also fit the actual situation of the company. Tell me, what are the problems of the company's middle team? ”
"There are many problems, and there are three major aspects, one is that there is a fault in the age of middle-level cadres, and almost all of the important posts are carried by the post-60s, very few after the 70s, and almost no after the 80s. This is not in line with the principle of combining the old, the middle and the young. I have always believed that the combination of old, middle-aged and young people advocated by the President in the past is the best. ”
"Well, what about the second?"
"The second is that there is too little turnover of cadres. It's a singles. In the past, I have put forward this opinion, and I always feel that cadres, especially the main persons in charge of major departments, are not very good at working in one position for a long time, but the main leaders of the company think that business proficiency is an advantage and do not adopt ......"
"Well, what about the third?"
"The third is that the assessment of cadres is a mere formality, and in recent years, there have been almost no incompetent cadres, which seems to be abnormal......
Tao Tang thought, this is to ask for power from himself, judging from the summary of all aspects, the power of the organization department seems to be very large, and Peng Jie did not point out as bluntly as Sheng Guangyun that the problem of cadres' style is the biggest problem...... Red Star has a big case of Yang Song, you can't say that there is no problem with the middle level of Red Star, right? Just like if there is a problem at the middle level, the root can generally be found at the factory level, the first leader and the deputy general manager in charge of supply have entered, and there is no problem at the middle level?
But Tao Tang did not express his true opinion on this, "Well, what you said makes a lot of sense. Minister Peng, the second thing is a specific matter, after Quan Jianhe was dismissed, Comrade Li Jianguo came to me twice to report that his work had been affected. I discussed with Secretary Zhao and decided to assign a deputy director to the Finance Department, the work of the Finance Department has been very heavy recently, and the budget system has been restored, especially because of the price and cost problems brought out by the East Lake Market, Comrade Ming Xiaoyue has made great efforts to come up with a price analysis, and it is very difficult to implement...... I personally grasped these tasks, and they all pressed on the head of the finance department, and it is necessary to strengthen the leadership of the finance department. Considering the business characteristics of the finance department, it is best to select candidates in the finance department. Schedule an assessment as soon as possible. ”
"Understood. What other instructions does Mr. Tao have? ”
"No more. By the way, how long have you been in this role? ”
"It's been ten years...... Peng Jie's heart moved.
"Oh, that's not easy. I'm old. Tao Tang said lightly, "That's it, after the assessment results come out, Secretary Zhao and I will listen to your report." ”
"Yes. If Mr. Tao has no other arrangements, I will go back. ”
"Nope." Tao Tang stood up to send him off, expressing his respect for the "old qualifications".
Tao Tang believed that Peng Jie could correctly understand the signal he was releasing . This person is the key chess piece for him to break the situation in personnel, this matter can be regarded as an assessment of him, if he is not satisfied, he can only be replaced first, even if he risks breaking with Li Luo, he must do it.
