Chapter 678 - Cutting the Best?
October 1, 1994.
This is a memorable day, because this day is not only a national holiday, but also a famous day in the history of Daqian, known as the meeting of 1,000 people.
The reason why this meeting is called the meeting of 1,000 people is because the number of people attending the meeting is as many as 1,632 people, all of whom are middle and senior managers of Daqian Group.
Originally, according to the original plan, except for the units that need to work overtime, most of the employees and managers of Daqian Group can go home to enjoy the rare National Day holiday.
Of course, this holiday is only one day, and if you want the 7-day National Day holiday, you have to wait until 2000.
Therefore, when these middle and senior managers, who were originally going to go home to enjoy the holiday, suddenly received the news from above that everyone had to go to the auditorium for a meeting, the mentality of these middle and senior managers can be said to have collapsed.
However, this is also a helpless thing, although Boss Jia does not want to hold a meeting on the holiday day, but the problem is that if the meeting is held on a working day, these middle and senior leaders will leave their jobs collectively, which will inevitably seriously affect Daqian's normal work, so it can only be set on the holiday day.
Taocun's TV series When these middle and senior managers who came to the conference room with a scolding mentality, saw Boss Jia with a solemn expression, sitting alone on the rostrum, looking at everyone in the audience, many people felt that something was wrong.
It's not that Boss Jia's serious expression is a little scary, but such a meeting has never been held.
First of all, Daqian's meeting is either an important meeting of the company's business direction attended by only high-level officials, or an annual meeting attended by tens of thousands of employees, or Boss Jia's wedding or something.
But for the first time ever, a meeting of more than 1,600 middle and senior leaders has brought together more than 1,600 middle and senior leaders, as it did today.
And the most important point is that only Boss Jia is sitting on the rostrum today.
According to the past practice, in addition to Chairman Jia Yapeng on the rostrum, the company's president Dong Mingzhu, as well as He Watermelon and others, will also sit on the rostrum, but they sit next to Boss Jia, and the stars are guarding Boss Jia.
But today is different, only Boss Jia is sitting alone on the rostrum, and although other high-level officials also came, they all sat in the first row.
This shows that these high-level executives are not here for a meeting today, but are here to attend the meeting and accept the training of Boss Jia.
Moreover, the venue of the meeting was not the auditorium inside Daqian Group, but in a factory building that had not yet been renovated in the Electronic Science and Technology Industrial Park.
The whole venue was empty, just full of stools and a podium, which was obviously improvised.
"Is it going to be a purge of the company again, as it did in March?" Many middle-level leaders shuddered to think that they couldn't help but recall the large-scale clean-up that affected the entire Daqian Group in March, and finally more than 25% of the middle and high-level leaders were directly dismissed, and more than 30% of them were imprisoned and serving their sentences.
Is there another purge today?
But it's only been half a year, and everyone's courage hasn't recovered yet, so they don't dare to do anything excessive!
Just when everyone was speculating, Boss Jia coughed into the microphone and finally began to speak.
"Today is the most dangerous day for our Daqian Group since its establishment!" Boss Jia's first sentence was clear and straight to the point, which surprised everyone.
Isn't the company thriving now, and hasn't the boss become the richest man in China?
Why is it suddenly the most dangerous?
"The company has encountered an unprecedented crisis in Fuso!" Boss Jia paused, "To put it simply, Sony doesn't like us, and wants to fight with us and snatch our VCD market!" ”
"This battle is not easy to fight, this is our Battle of Stalingrad! If this battle is lost, Sony will be able to drive straight in, Fuso Daqian will also collapse, Daqian Group's Fuso Group, which has the most lucrative overseas income, will completely collapse, and the company will have an arm cut off! ”
"But if this battle is won, Sony will be the Germany of the year, and maybe it will be prestigious, but in a few years, we will be able to kick Sony down, and then sit in Sony's position!"
Boss Jia's words were inexplicable to everyone for a while, and most of the middle and senior leaders didn't know why Daqian and Sony were fighting, only Dong Mingzhu and others had solemn expressions.
Although I don't know what this battle is all about, just hearing that the opponent is Sony, many middle and senior leaders shudder.
This is a Fortune 500 company, Daqian has actually reached the point where it wants to do something with this level of enterprise? How could Daqian win?
"It's hard to win this battle!" Boss Jia squinted his eyes and glanced at everyone, "But this battle must be won, so I need to borrow everyone's strength!" ”
"Rest assured, chairman, we all listen to you!"
"That is, even if it takes our lives, I will give it to the chairman!"
"Chairman, I have been living in the factory for a year this year, and I will definitely win this battle with the company!" Some clever middle and senior leaders in the audience shouted one after another, and then everyone reacted, and at the same time began to shout, overestimating the slogan to defeat Sony.
"Hahaha, this battle doesn't require everyone to work overtime in the factory, and everyone doesn't even have to work in the factory, because you will no longer be our direct employees!" Boss Jia said with a smile.
"It's over, after talking for a long time, it turns out that the chairman wants to lay off employees!" Hearing Boss Jia's words, many people's hearts were cold.
It's no longer a big thousand employees, isn't that going to be a layoff?
So who exactly are going to be cut? Is it going to be laid off from everyone here? Or do you want to take half of us?
Just when everyone's hearts were desolate, Boss Jia continued, "You are all the elite of my Daqian, and you are also the essence, and you are the most trusted person by my Jia Yapeng, so I will share this precious opportunity with you." ”
"Here, let me explain the policy, people who can get this opportunity, only in Daqian working for more than two years, and at the same time the annual performance appraisal is more than 90% of Daqian employees, and finally after the company's internal audit, to determine any violations of laws and disciplines, and at the same time have excellent work experience and work performance, there is a chance to get this opportunity."
"You can now take a look in your heart to see if you can meet the above standards."
Why, layoffs still have to lay off the best people?
Everyone looked at each other, looking confused, completely unaware of what kind of medicine was sold in our Boss Jia's gourd.
