Chapter Fifty-Eight: Racing Development
Zhou Shuo shook his head and said, "What you can't do doesn't mean I can't do it." ”
"Hah!" Trench said rampantly: "Ridiculous, do you mean to say that our Americans' skills are not as high as those of the Chinese?" ”
Zhou Shuo spread his hands and said, "No, I just think that your ELR company may not even be comparable to our Chinese skills." ”
"Well, it's better than that." Johnson stepped forward and said, "Gentlemen, I already know your situation. If Mr. Zhou, you do have the ability to develop software, do you dare to compare with Mr. Trench? ”
Johnson is still an American after all, and although he did things wrong, he was just a weak person anyway. Privately, he would inevitably feel that such humiliation was enough for an American. Of course, the premise is that the object of the violation is a Chinese.
This thought made him decide to stand up and choose to end this farce. And by the way, if it's convenient, get a little benefit for yourself.
Zhou Shuo asked curiously: "Of course there is no problem, I don't know how Mr. Johnson wants to compete?" ”
Although Johnson's selfishness could be seen somewhat, Zhou Shuo still decided to accept his opinion. After all, for him, Johnson's testimony is the most important weight, and he must be treated with corresponding respect. This can also be seen how difficult it is to make American money in the place of Americans.
Johnson told Trench: "My business really needs an ERP system. If the ELR company you're talking about has the ability to develop, I want you to do a race development. Whoever develops fast and has high quality, I use whose software, what do you think? ”
Without waiting for the trench to respond, Zhou Shuo preemptively agreed: "Okay, just do what Mr. Johnson proposed!" ”
Trench glanced at him and asked Johnson with some hesitation, "What if it fails?" ”
"Of course there is nothing." Johnson looked at him expectantly and asked, "Isn't Mr. Trench confident?" ”
"Of course not!" Trench swallowed and said, "ELR will also participate in this race development!" ”
After saying that, the trench came back to his senses and realized that there were many passers-by around them from some time ago. There are not only the staff of the computer company, but also the merchants who come to participate in the exhibition. Obviously, this kind of new thing of racing and development has fully stirred up the flames of gossip among the masses of the people.
Looking at the curious eyes of the people around him, Trench quickly made up his mind: there is no way back! This game has to be won, it's all for Jennifer, for Sofia, for ...... Myself.
"What? You are crazy! Racing development is not only good for the client, but we will lose all our money if we fail! Raymond exclaimed, frightened.
He pulled his hair and said complainingly: "It's not that you have to let me pull customers from the North Dynasty Computer, otherwise I won't have the handle in the hands of that old man Johnson." What else should I do? Let that Chinese slander my reputation in the newspapers? ”
"Hey, dude, that's your business!" Raymond said contemptuously, "You can't lose my company because of this. ”
"Your company?" Trench said with red eyes: "You still got the idea of this software from me, right?" ”
"Then I'll thank you at most, my brother." Raymond clasped his hands to his chest and said without caring about himself.
Trench gritted his teeth and stared at him and threatened: "Raymond, you have to think clearly, now the whole exhibition knows that the ELR company is going to compete with the North Dynasty company, if you regret it - others will not say that you are a calm decision-maker, only that you are afraid of a company opened by a Chinese!" ”
Raymond was stunned, and shouted angrily, "Damn, trench, damn!" You idiot, I'm going to kill you! ”
Raymond tugged at the collar of the trench and said angrily, "Hurry up, hurry up and get the stuff out!" ”
The trench was unclear and asked, "Hey, I'm dizzy, let me down!" Also, what are you talking about? ”
"What else could it be?" Raymond let go of him through gritted teeth and said, "Of course it's a damn business analysis document!" ”
"Nope." The trench flattened his collar and said.
"No?" Raymond didn't know why.
"The document needs to be organized and summarized by itself to reflect the level of understanding of the ERP system ideas of the two companies......"
When Raymond and Trench showed up at Laco PET Printing Equipment with two other system engineers, Zhou Shuo, Pang Zhou, Yu Qiong and all five software technicians had been on site for a long time.
Raymond screamed badly, dragged over the trench and ordered, "Hurry up, go to the company and bring four more people." It's really fatal, does this Chinese want to train all technical personnel to become system engineers? ”
Companies are paying for their employees' skills. Regardless of whether an employee's skills are used or not, as long as he has one more skill, he will crave more wages. These labor costs will inevitably reduce the competitiveness of enterprises. Therefore, no company wants its employees to be generalists, but rather to be "professionals". Not only will the wages be lower, but they will also be more efficient. If an employee's skills are only useful in the company, it is simply a model of the perfect employee.
From a software company, four out of ten programmers know how to configure hardware, and two out of four people who know how to configure hardware can understand business requirements analysis. This would inevitably pay four configuration engineers more than six programmers, and two systems engineers would pay more than the remaining eight employees.
What Raymond couldn't understand was that if Zhou Shuo's technical staff all had the ability to be system engineers, then who would write the program? Or is he going to let people who are paid as systems engineers do the jobs of programmers they can hire for a third of their salary?
Enterprises in the electronics industry are always enthusiastic about the application of new technologies. For Johnson, the more advanced the management system, the tighter the cost control. The more flexible a company's manufacturing plan is, the stronger its ability to resist risks in the marketplace. The accumulation of such a little advantage is the basis for him to survive in the mall.
In a Chinese saying, it is called: no accumulation of steps, no thousands of miles.
Zhou Shuo took the seven people behind him and carefully inspected the whole process of Lacker's production. And read through all the production plans, financial plans, human resources plans and so on in detail in the past five years......
ERP system is known as three points of software, seven points of implementation. In other words, whether the software is good or not, the key is to see whether the early design is suitable for the specific situation of the manufacturer, whether the future implementation is in place, and whether the quality of workers is enough to match.
Trench is non-stop with the support of the ELR company, of course, Raymond can't find everyone in the company, otherwise if he earns this business, I'm afraid the ELR company will also go out of business.
Raymond and Trench glanced at each other, and tacitly released their suspicions. Since you can't put the trouble aside, then you have to be in the same boat for the time being. Everyone is smart and knows better what kind of attitude they should have.
Raymond himself is a system engineer for MRPII software, and it is very easy to understand learning ERP systems based on this. In addition, in his company, his colleagues are all old people who have cooperated with each other for many years, and the efficiency of work is indeed more tacit than the team of Beichao Company, which is still in the run-in period.
Pang Zhou was turned around by Zhou Shuo's regiment, and he still had the energy to pay attention to the progress of the ELR company. He walked into the office trembling with a large stack of papers that were taller than his head. He put the document on the table with a "bang" and said worriedly, "Master, we have to speed up, otherwise we will all be caught up by the ELR people!" ”
Zhou Shuo picked up a document, ate bread while making records, and said calmly: "Look at Yu Qiong, every time there is a big event!" Just mind your own business and don't let their progress be distracted. ”
"Oh!" Pang Zhou scratched his head, looked at Yu Qiong, who was calm and normal, and said, "But she doesn't seem to be like this when she has any major events, isn't she nervous at all?" Whoa—"
"Mouthy!" Zhou Shuo threw the leftover piece of baguette out of the bowl and smashed it on his head, saying, "Go and get the human resources report for the second quarter of 1992!" ”
Pang Zhou walked on the front foot, and a technician ran in on the back foot, holding a document and asking, "Boss, do you see the inventory fuzzy query here, how to set the attribute parameters?" ”
Zhou Shuo looked at it, and quickly drew two columns on a piece of paper with a pen and said: "You see that this can be divided into two categories, one is the query of finished products and semi-finished products, which can be queried by automatic coding or any one of the attributes. The other is excipients, low-value consumables and other materials, which can be queried by type, part number, name and other ways......"
Zhou Shuo talked for a long time, until the technical staff thoroughly understood the guiding ideology of design and planning, and then put down the pen.
Turning his head, Raymond and Trench looked at each other, and Raymond said worriedly: "No, this Chinese seems to have a lot of experience in the design of this kind of software." With the familiar advantage, our progress has never been able to catch up, and I am afraid that we will lose at the starting line. ”
"How is this possible, ERP software is still new even in the United States, is it the experience he gained in China?" ”
After saying that, he laughed in disbelief.
However, Raymond is gambling with all his net worth, how can he have the heart to laugh, and said irritably: "No matter what the reason, it is a fact that the progress is lagging behind, and it is all the fault you caused, so you can't think of a way?" ”
"Method ......"
Trench touched his chin and thought for a while, then suddenly exclaimed, "There it is!" ”
