Chapter 11 Wage Increases

The news that Min Congda had given all employees a 20% pay rise quickly spread throughout the team.

Employees who had been suspicious of the new airborne manager immediately changed their minds about him.

For grassroots employees, a leader who can give more money is a good leader, and the team won't share an honor for employees when they win the championship, right?

The green dollar is the most tangible thing.

Min Congda's favorability among the Clippers' rank-and-file employees skyrocketed.

There was a burst of cheers and applause from upstairs and downstairs.

Rosser, the former chief executive and current vice president, was shocked to get the news and immediately came to Min Congda's office to ask for clarification.

"Smart, I heard that you have increased the salaries of all employees by twenty percent?"

Min Congda was in his office looking at the Clippers' financial statements when the Rosser door rushed in without knocking.

"That's right, rest assured, you, as a member of the Clippers, will also get a 20 percent raise, which is not a lot."

"I'm not here to care about my salary... I... I mean, it's going to add a lot to the team's expenses. Did you ask for Sterling's boss's permission? ”

"Of course, could I have made this decision? The owner has entrusted me with the management of the team. ”

That's exactly what Sterling said when he left, but Rosser didn't believe it.

He believes Sterling will make Min Congda change the team's draft decision, but he doesn't believe Sterling can agree to give the entire staff a pay rise.

Rosser knows how much this boss is picky, and Rose, as the head of administration, is in charge of finances, and helping the team save money has always been an important part of his job.

Rosser immediately pulled out the phone and called Sterling, who was on vacation in Hawaii.

A minute later, Min Congda looked at the expression on Rosser's face and knew that he must have been scolded by Sterling.

Min Congda patted Rosser's shoulder and said, "Rosser, isn't it a good thing to give you a salary increase?" Your salary is not low, 20% is a lot of money, so plan how you want to use it. ”

Rosser could only helplessly say: "What you said makes sense, but the team's expenses really need to be controlled, our income..."

Min Congda interrupted him and said, "Money is not saved, only if you can spend money, can you make better money." We let employees have higher salaries, attract more talent, serve the team better, the team plays a good record, attracts more fans to watch the game, and gets higher tickets, doesn't it have a higher income? ”

Min Congda's speech is getting more and more slippery, and if you use more language, you can make rapid progress.

It makes a lot of sense, but it's not that simple to achieve.

Rosser had no choice but to sigh, and then thought about the 20% increase in salary, which was indeed a lot, and the new set of golf clubs could be started, and the mood instantly improved a lot.

It seems that Smart, the new leader, is not useless, and he can't raise his salary without himself.

Just as he was about to leave, Min Congda suddenly grabbed Rosser and whispered: "Look at Rosser, I have increased your salary, can you lend me a little money, I need some money for the time being, I just arrived at the team and the salary has not been ......paid."

Rosser thought that this guy was going to borrow money.

Min Congda's contract is with the team, but his salary is not paid by the team.

Sterling said his salary was paid for by another agency.

"Well, how much are you going to borrow?"

"Uh, fifty."

"Fifty? Fifty thousand? (Fifty thousand in English means fifty-thousand.) )”

"No, no, no, it's fifty."

“……”

Rosser doesn't even know what to say, you are the general manager of the team, and you have a lot of power, so you will borrow fifty? Who looks down on it?

He took out fifty yuan in cash and gave it to Min Congda, and immediately left the office, thinking that he didn't have to pay it back.

Min Congda also has no choice, before the system pays him a salary, he has to stock up on some cash.

If you can't eat, it will be a shame to run to someone to borrow money to eat.

Find an opportunity for everyone to borrow some first, and then the system will pay him back slowly.

It's not easy to come to a foreign country to work and live alone.

After raising the wages of employees, Min Congda felt that his day's work was saturated.

After doing such a big thing, it should be time to get off work and rest.

It's half past three in the afternoon, and the sun is on its way down.

At this point in time, people who are busy with work should also be on the way home.

And in the Clippers headquarters building, the staff is still busy with the things at hand.

Min Congda wanted to announce that he would leave work early, but the system prompted [Before the end of work, it is not allowed to leave work at will to affect the work of employees. 】

It seems that the trick of leaving work early yesterday was filled by the system.

"Forget it, I can only give you a salary increase, and then you are not allowed to work overtime, and the rest can't help you for the time being."

In order to sink the Clippers, the first step is to sink the employees here.

It is necessary to cultivate the atmosphere of leaving work on time, never working overtime, and being lazy.

It is said that Europeans and Americans work short hours and do not work overtime, but in fact, they are only half right.

The short working hours and overtime are the one in the front, and the beauty in the back is not necessarily.

The overtime culture is prevalent in the United States, and NBA teams are certainly no exception.

Especially in the basketball department, it is common to watch videos and make data all night, travel for a long time, and work overtime to write reports.

The basketball affairs department is on the second floor, and Min Congda decided to go to the second floor to see the work of various departments, and by the way, convey the new spirit of the team's work.

Seeing Min Congda coming downstairs, Ada hurriedly asked, "Mr. Smart, do you have anything to deal with?" ”

Min Congda said: "Oh, I want to inspect the basketball department and see how they are doing. By the way, you can briefly introduce it. ”

A team with more than 100 employees, including players, is a medium-sized company.

It's not easy to understand what's going on with every employee in every department.

Ida was secretly happy in her heart, thinking that Mr. Smart had come to test me again, and it was time for me to perform.

She said: "The basketball affairs department is divided into several departments, one is the basketball affairs headquarters, which is fully responsible for the decision-making of the team's basketball affairs; the second is the coaching staff, which is responsible for player training and game command; the third is the scouting department, which is responsible for discovering new players; the fourth is the health management center, which is responsible for the physical and mental health of the players; The fifth is the video center, which is responsible for the editing and sorting of the game video. ”

Ida has done a lot of meticulous work for this job, and it can be said that it is very comprehensive.

Min Congda nodded and asked, "Which department are you?" ”

Ida hesitated for a moment and said, "I... I'm in the administration, in the digital and media center, and I was a social media intern before and ...... after I turned regular"

"After you become a regular person, you will be an official personal assistant, but you can still continue to do social media work, and the voice of the fans can be fed back to me in time."

"By the way, what do the fans think of this draft?"

Faced with this question, Ida hesitated, pursed her lips, and said, "The fans think... It's a terrible choice, only a stupid pig can do it, and a lot of fans have written and called to ask why not Griffin, but Curry. ”

Ida spoke very directly, but Min Congda was not angry.

There is growing evidence that he made the right decision in the draft.

Compared with 300 million US dollars, what is the value of being scolded by fans?

"Continue to be in close contact with the fans."

"Let's go, let's go to the various departments together."

Accompanied by Ada's guidance, Min Congda went to meet with the various departments and employees of the basketball department.

Because of the decision to raise wages by 20%, the employees who were originally skeptical of Min Congda showed favor to the new general manager and warmly shook hands with Min Congda, and Min Congda felt the great charm of money.

After taking a turn around the basketball affairs department, Min Congda walked around the larger administrative department on the first floor.

The administrative department is mainly responsible for non-basketball matters, including business operations, marketing, legal, finance, corporate partnerships, sales/ticketing services, human resources, etc.

In short, stripping away the basketball business, the rest of the Clippers is the same as many commercial companies.

In the administrative department, Min Congda was also warmly welcomed, and Rosser had to look at this person differently, and he was indeed courageous.

All the departments were visited, only the coaching staff and the health center did not go because their office is located in the training gym, and Min Congda is ready to go again tomorrow.

It was already time to get off work, and Min Congda immediately announced that everyone was not allowed to work overtime and must leave work on time.

Olser and Rosser wanted to object, but they looked at each other and knew at a glance that it was all in vain, and a salary increase could be a bonus, so what else could he not do?

It's better to give up resistance and let him do it.

Before leaving, Olsa gave Min Congda a report.

"Mr. Olshe, if there is any report, let's deal with it tomorrow."

"Mr. NoSmart, this is a player trade plan to be discussed at tomorrow's meeting, and it was supposed to be discussed overtime today. I'll give it to you in advance, so you can understand it and make a decision tomorrow. ”

Min Congda listened, player trade? Can players still be traded in the same way as merchandise?

He took the report and thought to himself: "Forget it, let's go back and study it, maybe it's the same as the draft, it's a decision that affects the fate of the team?" Overtime, overtime, overtime. ”
