After fooling He Yuzhu and hitting another nail in He Yuzhu's heart, Cao Zhiqiang came to the office building of Hongguang Publishing House as usual and held an afternoon meeting with everyone.

The so-called afternoon meeting was developed from the daily morning meeting, and the daily morning meeting was introduced by Chen Jiabang.

Before Chen Jiabang came over to be the vice president, Hongguang Publishing House did not have the habit of holding regular meetings every day, because Cao Zhiqiang himself did not like to hold meetings every day, and he didn't think that it was useful to hold meetings every day.

However, as soon as Chen Jiabang brought the group of internal affairs personnel from the Hongguang Machinery Factory arrived, the atmosphere changed.

To put it simply, after Chen Jiabang became vice president, he expressed dissatisfaction with the idle style of the publishing house, and carried out some governance on it, and made a simple and strict work discipline code.

For example, there are penalties for arriving late and leaving early, such as arranging a strict duty schedule, and arranging a daily morning meeting, etc.

These things are not taught by Cao Zhiqiang, nor are they taught by Director Li, they are all summarized by Chen Jiabang himself, and they are also the management methods that Chen Jiabang has always wanted to achieve.

Chen Jiabang believes that management should be like the army, and it is necessary to specify detailed rules and regulations and strictly enforce them, so that they can have combat effectiveness and work efficiency.

If the detailed rules and regulations are not specified, and the system is not strictly enforced, sooner or later it will become a plate of loose sand, and it will become a paradise for idle eaters, just like the current Hongguang Machinery Factory.

In the past, Chen Jiabang was just a secretary, and he didn't count what he said, and the machinery factory had been used for a long time and was difficult to change, which led to the inability to implement the new management methods in his heart, and there has always been a regret in his heart that he could not display his ambitions.

After coming to the Red Light Publishing House, it was different.

Although the Red Light Publishing House is just a small temple, the temple is small enough to show.

There are few people in the temple, and most of them are contract workers, not regular workers in the personnel bureau or labor bureau, so it is much more convenient to manage.

Don't say anything else, let's just talk about the final technique of dismissal, he Chen Jiabang can open people at will in the publishing house, except for a very few people.

With this kind of power that can fire people at any time, plus the salary given by the publishing house is much higher than that of the outside world, the carrot is a stick, and of course everyone is obedient.

At the beginning of the implementation, everyone complained bitterly, because Chen Jiabang was playing for real, and after someone made a mistake, he not only engaged in corporal punishment such as standing and cleaning toilets, but also imposed fines.

Everyone pinched their noses and admitted the corporal punishment, but the fine was really unbearable.

So they found Cao Zhiqiang to sue.

Cao Zhiqiang himself also resisted this system from the bottom of his heart, but that was when this system could limit him.

The problem is that Chen Jiabang's management system is only for the lower levels, not the higher, and does not impose restrictions on the rank of vice president and above.

For example, Cao Zhiqiang often arrives late and leaves early, or even often does not come, it doesn't matter, because this is a manifestation of the leadership's daily management.

understands that this system has nothing to do with itself, but it can really effectively drive everyone's enthusiasm for work, and after getting rid of lazy habits, Cao Zhiqiang's face has changed.

For example, in the face of his own people like Shen Zhenhua, who came to complain, Cao Zhiqiang said bitterly that he couldn't help it, after all, Chen Jiabang was a person sent from above, and the publishing house was a subordinate unit of Hongguang Machinery Factory, and he couldn't twist his arms and thighs.

Theoretically, this is also reasonable, how can the subordinate units fight against the people sent from above.

After all, the contract that Cao Zhiqiang wrote with Director Li was known only to a few of them, and it was not announced to the outside world, and it was a secret document.

Chen Jiabang didn't know the details of the contract, Cao Zhiqiang didn't know, anyway, Shen Zhenhua and Yu Deli would never know.

Why is Zhang Qianqian so willing to be Cao Zhiqiang's driver?

The fundamental reason is that Zhang Qianqian can't stand the constraints of the new rules.

On the contrary, being an exclusive driver for Cao Zhiqiang, because Cao Zhiqiang himself is very idle, so driving for Cao Zhiqiang as a driver is actually a very easy job.

Not only is the work easy, but the power is also heavy, after all, he is the number one driver.

It is precisely because of this that Zhang Qianqian's position is envious of the dead.

It's a pity that at present, there is only one person who can drive in the unit, and it is useless for everyone to envy it.

After pacifying the people below, Cao Zhiqiang discussed with Chen Jiabang again, and felt that when there were few people, the system was too strict, which was not conducive to everyone's work, and it was best to streamline it.

For example, when he held a morning meeting every day, Cao Zhiqiang felt that it was a little too much.

Meetings are important to facilitate leaders to grasp the following operations in a timely manner, but if meetings are too frequent, they will become formalism.

And to be honest, it is not the most appropriate time to have a meeting in the morning, on the contrary, Cao Zhiqiang feels that it is more appropriate to have a meeting in the afternoon.

In the end, it was changed to three meetings a week, that is, at 4 p.m. on Monday, March and Friday, and the regular afternoon meeting was officially held.

At other times, there will be no meetings under normal circumstances, unless the leader has a special matter to announce and convene an extraordinary meeting.

Of course, even this kind of regular meeting three times a week is strictly internal to the bottom, and the binding force on Cao Zhiqiang, the president, is very low, and whether to come to the meeting or not depends on Cao Zhiqiang's personal arrangement.

Generally speaking, if Cao Zhiqiang can arrive, then Cao Zhiqiang, the president, will preside over the regular meeting.

If Cao Zhiqiang can't arrive for some reason, then Vice President Chen Jiabang will preside over the regular meeting.

If even Chen Jiabang can't preside over it for some reason, then so on, and the editor-in-chief Yu Deli will preside over the regular meeting.

If all three were absent at the same time, the regular meeting would not be held for the time being.

Today is Children's Day, and it's also Wednesday, and it's time for the regular meeting.

Cao Zhiqiang could have avoided attending, but he happened to have nothing to do this afternoon, and he also wanted to know about the preparations of the magazine and the listing of the first single of @Essence Library, so he decided to attend the regular meeting.

As soon as they saw Cao Zhiqiang, the number one leader, coming to the meeting, everyone cheered up, after all, this was a rare opportunity to show their faces.

After the meeting began, Cao Zhiqiang didn't say a word at first, and then listened to Chen Jiabang organize the meeting.

As a matter of practice, it is the heads of the various departments who report on their work.

Red Light Publishing House, it's not the time when there were two or three kittens at the beginning.

After a round of stuffing operations in the Hongguang Machinery Factory, the Hongguang Publishing House is now a medium-sized unit with more than 50 serious employees.

At present, in addition to the four traditional offices, namely the president's office, the vice president's office, the general manager's office, and the editor-in-chief's office, three new sections have been added: the internal affairs department, the security department, and the finance department, thus forming a situation of four offices and three departments.

Not to mention the four offices, the functions of the three sections are also different.

The Security Section is clearly responsible for security.

The Finance Section is responsible for accounting, cashiering, and other financial aspects.

The Internal Affairs Division is a bit more complicated, and is responsible for a series of logistical matters including accommodation, canteens, office supplies, welfare, salaries, and so on.

In terms of numbers, the number of people in the three sections far exceeds that of the four offices, especially the security section, which has the largest number.

Obviously, Director Li did this on purpose, and he deliberately transferred some people over to reduce the wage pressure on the machinery factory.

Because of the transferred people, the publishing house is responsible for the salary, not the Hongguang Machinery Factory.

If it weren't for the fact that the publishing house's current plate is too small and it would be unreasonable to put too many people, Director Li would have sent 100 people instead of only 50 people.

It can be seen that the current situation of Hongguang Machinery Factory is really not optimistic.

Also, most of the factories in the second and third rings of the capital are having a hard time.

The unit where He Yuzhu works, that is, the Red Star Rolling Mill outside Dongzhimen, has been swallowed up by Shougang and has become a subordinate unit of Shougang.

It is said that the production department of Red Star Rolling has begun to relocate as a whole, and the rest are some tertiary production departments, and it is precisely because of this that He Yuzhu, the director of the canteen, has been idle, because there are a lot fewer people.

The experience of the Red Star Rolling Mill has to make the Red Light Machinery Factory sad for the dead fox.

In fact, strictly speaking, the reform of state-owned enterprises in the early 80s was basically a situation in which large factories swallowed up small factories, and basically there would be no dismissal of workers in large numbers and a large number of layoffs, but the new employees were included in their own system.

But this kind of annexation is not good for middle and senior leaders, because the power is too small, and the benefits are even less.

This is like before the Battle of Chibi, the ministers of Jiangdong could surrender, but it is a reason that the boss cannot surrender.

So to put it bluntly, the reason why Director Li is so resistant to the above transformation plan is, in the final analysis, that this plan has greatly weakened his personal interests.

There's really no way to forget it, but as long as there is a glimmer of life, Director Li still has to struggle.

If you think about it carefully, if Director Li is really a good person who talks about principles, what things can he do before, can he accompany Cao Zhiqiang to act, and help Cao Zhiqiang bring down Sister Niu in the shortest possible time?

A factory director can do that kind of thing, and give Cao Zhiqiang such a young man so much authority, which just shows that he is in a hurry.

But having said that, it was precisely Director Li's eagerness that gave Cao Zhiqiang a great opportunity.

If you want to change to other units that are not in crisis, no matter how talented Cao Zhiqiang is, it will not be his turn to give orders, and it is impossible to climb to this position in a short time.

Including that publishing house, even if Cao Zhiqiang found the relationship between Uncle Xu and Uncle Wang, in fact, wouldn't Hongguang Machinery Factory come forward to set up a publishing house, and then appoint Cao Zhiqiang as a vice president and general manager?

Just imagine, if there was no crisis in Hongguang Machinery Factory, and Director Li didn't treat Cao Zhiqiang as a lifesaver, how could he sign the contract with Cao Zhiqiang, which can be called a free contract, and how could Cao Zhiqiang become the leader of the publishing house in a short period of time?

Don't look at the Hongguang Publishing House, Cao Zhiqiang has the final say, but in fact, this publishing house is the Hongguang Machinery Factory, and the Hongguang Machinery Factory has the final say, which is equivalent to Director Li having the final say.

It's just that Director Li now has a request for others, so he gave Cao Zhiqiang so much authority.

Therefore, nothing in this world is for nothing, especially power.

In this way, after various departments and departments took turns to introduce the recent work, Chen Jiabang looked at Cao Zhiqiang and asked Cao Zhiqiang to speak.

Cao Zhiqiang came back to his senses at this time, first picked up the cup and took a sip of tea, then cleared his throat and said:

"For the specific management within our publishing house, everyone still has to listen to Lao Chen, and I don't interfere with this.

Here, I only focus on two indicators, that is, sales and revenue and expenditure.

Among them, sales are the most important!"

After a short pause, Cao Zhiqiang asked about the recent sales of "Jianghu Xing" and the sales of the single "Red Flag Fluttering".

Hearing this question, Chen Jiabang seemed to have been prepared for a long time, and took the initiative to speak: "President, I have been staring at the sales of these two products you said.

"Red Flag Fluttering" has just been put on sale today, and the situation in all aspects is still unclear, but according to the observation of the observers we sent and the feedback from Manager Li Youfu and Li in the field, the sales volume should not be bad.

Anyway, the major Xinhua bookstores in the capital were sold out as soon as the audio tapes came up, and there was a queue to buy them again.

However, because we sent a large number of audio tapes to individual vendors in advance, there were many sales outlets, and the stock was also very large, so the sales situation at Xinhua Bookstore was not as hot as when "Jianghu Xing" was released.

The queue to go to Xinhua Bookstore to buy is more parents who buy book tickets.

The main reason is that the audio tapes of Xinhua Bookstore are not discounted, while the audio tapes of individual vendors are cheaper, and at most a cassette tape is cheaper than five cents.

Although we have agreed before that we want to set a unified price, self-employed people simply do not follow the rules in order to make more money."

Speaking of this, Chen Jiabang paused, and then said, "President, I think the root cause is still in the wholesale price, and the wholesale price between us and those hawkers is too low.

If we sell to those vendors at a fixed price, or only five cents cheaper than the list price, they won't blatantly sell at a lower price.

But the wholesale price you give them, a dollar cheaper than the list price, that's an exaggeration.

As long as the vendors can make money, even if it can only be transferred for five cents, they are willing to sell, which seriously disrupts the market.

The first batch has already been delivered, and there is no way to do it, and if the second batch is given to those vendors, will the wholesale price be raised?"

Cao Zhiqiang thought for a moment, then shook his head: "Needless to mention, if those self-employed vendors come to buy again, we will still give them the previous wholesale price."

Speaking of this, Cao Zhiqiang smiled: "They are willing to sell at a lower price, that's whatever, and better.

Anyway, if they don't reduce the price, we give them according to the wholesale price, and our profit is already very high.

You know, the cost of one of our tapes is only three pieces a piece, and the price is five yuan.

Among them, the wholesale price we gave to Xinhua Bookstore was two and a half yuan, which was equivalent to one tape, and we only earned Xinhua Bookstore two cents a piece.

But the wholesale price we give to those vendors is four yuan a plate, which is equal to one tape, and we earn them two yuan and seven cents, which is one and a half dollars higher than the profit from selling to Xinhua Bookstore!

Xinhua Bookstore is a state-owned unit, and at present, it is impossible to sell it at a reduced price, but hawkers can.

So you see, no matter how much Xinhua Bookstore sells, the only profit we make.

But if there are more hawkers, we will make more money.

Why should a hawker sell our tapes?

Of course, you have to give it enough.

If you don't give enough benefits, who will do it with you.

If you only give a cassette tape a profit of five cents, they may not be interested in it, and they may not believe you.

But if the profit margin is a dollar, they have enough profits, and in order to make more money, they will desperately try to sell more goods.

For example, Xinhua Bookstore did not dare to sell at a reduced price, but they dared.

The same genuine goods, you sell them cheaply, he sells them expensive, and of course the common people vote with their feet.

In addition, most of those vendors are not ordinary hawkers, they are all contract workers who have signed contracts with us, and they are part of us.

Let them make money, so that they can have more confidence in us, more centripetal force, and more trust in us.

Their booths are all fixed stalls, and when their booths have a certain reputation and there are enough repeat customers, then when we entrust us to make a newsstand made by Hongguang Machinery Factory, we can send it to them and build it into a fixed newsstand, and then form our own sales channels.

You see, making vendors make more money not only speeds up sales, but also makes us more money.

It can also let these vendors taste the sweetness of cooperating with us, know our sincerity, and willingly continue to cooperate with us, and be the guinea pig of our newsstand, no, the terminal salesperson.

So it's a good thing to kill multiple birds with one stone."

Chen Jiabang nodded: "What does the president mean, we need to support these hawkers more?"

"That's right." Cao Zhiqiang nodded.

"If that's the case, why don't we drop the wholesale price again?" Chen Jiabang said.

"No, not yet." Cao Zhiqiang shook his head.

"Not to mention that lowering wholesale prices will reduce our profits.

Let's talk about Xinhua Bookstore, we still have to focus on their attitude at the moment, and see what they mean about our own street vendor association.

If Xinhua Bookstore does not object and does not care about the stall consortium and newsstand chain business we have engaged in, it will not be too late for us to secretly lower prices in the future and increase support for those vendors.

Now, it's business as usual.

Anyway, as long as the goods can be sold, they will make money, and they will not care about the wholesale price."

"Understood." Chen Jiabang nodded, "I will pay close attention to this information, you can rest assured."

"Hmm." Cao Zhiqiang smiled, "Lao Chen, I'm at ease!"

"Next is the issuance of Jianghu Xing." Chen Jiabang looked at the small book in his hand, "At present, the issuance situation of Jianghu Bank has stabilized, and it is no longer as large as in the past, but the circulation is already terrifying.

According to our current summary, the total sales of this set of books have exceeded 1.8 million units, which is unprecedented.

I mean, at least in such a short period of time, to be able to sell more than 1.8 million units, which is really unprecedented."

Hearing this, Cao Zhiqiang pursed his lips and thought to himself what this was.

I think that the studio with the pen name "Xue Millie" at the beginning, but in a short period of time, at the end of the eighties, more than 100 bestsellers of women and men were created in China.

For example, the famous phenomenal "Female Belt" has created sales of 2.2 million copies in less than three months, and the money is not too cool.

In comparison, his own 1.8 million sets are nothing.

You must know that when "The Girl Takes the Family" was released, it was already 1987 when a hundred flowers were blooming.

And his own set of "Jianghu Xing" was in the early eighties during the martial arts ban period, when there was almost no competition in the surrounding area, and this set of poems was released in an almost explicit way, and the poetry collection was a martial arts work, which was really just a small sales.

If it is not suppressed in the later period, Cao Zhiqiang estimates that this set of books can break at least three million sets.

If you can't break it, it's a problem.
