Since hearing Ye Jiayi mention the statement that the company's capital has turned from real to virtual, Guan Yuntian has begun to examine the business behavior of Changda Group for more than a year, except for revolving around capital, the industry is completely stagnant, and there is no plan for new projects and industries. Guan Yuntian believes that this phenomenon is not a good thing for a manufacturing enterprise that is determined to inherit.

However, in order to find new economic growth points for enterprises, it is necessary to find suitable new projects, which is by no means so easy.

Ye Jiayi suggested that Changda Group should establish its own R & D institutions, with her insight, a company without R & D capabilities, even if the scale is large, is also a giant without muscle and soul, on the one hand, such enterprises have poor anti-risk ability, once there is a crisis, the enterprise is easy to lie down, in addition, without its own core technology, the enterprise will always be subject to others, and it is impossible to produce high value-added products. Those enterprises in the world that have been inherited for more than 100 years all have strong R&D and innovation capabilities.

Guan Yuntian himself has a higher education, and he is very interested in Ye Jiayi's suggestions, but to form a R&D team with a certain level, staffing is crucial.

"It's not enough to have staff, you also have to be mentally prepared for years that won't produce benefits. In addition, we are all highly educated, and we have some understanding of the laws of technology research and development, research and development is a long-term investment, and you can't ask R&D personnel to give you benefits in the short term. Ye Jiayi said.

"That's fine, I'm not going to do that stupid thing. Let's now propose a framework and discuss with Mr. Xue from the Human Resources Department how to recruit personnel, as well as salary and so on. "Guan Yuntian has always been very much in favor of suggestions that are conducive to the development of enterprises.

In her early work experience, Ye Jiayi had seen Dow Chemical's R&D institutions and had some experience in this area, and she further suggested: "Because we are not good at the composition and management of R&D institutions, it is better to recruit one or two slightly well-known R&D leaders first, and they will set up institutions and recruit all kinds of talents needed, and let them do this work, I think it is more professional." ”

"Yes, first recruit one or two such leaders, and leave the task of forming institutions and personnel recruitment to them, and our role is only to cooperate and serve. ”

"It's good that we don't interfere in some work, but if we do, it will not only not work well, but will add to the chaos, and my opinion is that laymen should never interfere in the affairs of insiders. Wouldn't that be more worry-free?"

This is the reason, in the future, the R&D institutions of Changda Group will definitely have a free and relaxed working environment. Guan Yuntian likes to work in an uninhibited environment, and he will put himself in the shoes of others.

After Guan Yuntian and Ye Jiayi determined the general conditions for the leader of the R&D institution, they asked the human resources department to find suitable candidates nationwide, and they didn't care about the rest of the work.

In Guan Yuntian's view, the establishment of R&D institutions by the group company is a long-term and necessary work, but it is still difficult to quench the thirst of Changda Group for the current situation of lack of new economic growth points.

Towards the end of the year, the county organized a county's entrepreneur association, and the invitation had already been sent to Guan Yuntian's desk. In fact, such activities have been organized several times in a row in the county, and invitations are sent to Changda Group every year, and Guan Yuntian has never attended once.

Lin Nan, the director of the office, reminded, "You have refused the county's invitation again and again, have you ever thought about the consequences?"

"I didn't think about what the consequences would be, let's hear about it. Guan Yuntian didn't care.

"People will say that you are not close to people behind your back, or even that you have no one in your eyes, no leader, and so on. Lin Nan said seriously.

"Look at what you said is so serious, as for it? I have a lot of respect for any leader, how can there be no leader!"

"No matter how good you think in your heart, but you don't do it in action, people only know that Guan Yuntian has refused the county's invitation again and again, don't shout injustice, that's the case. ”

"Do you say that you are tired of living? It is really inexplicable that a volunteer attends an event does not go to participate and provokes so many words. ”

"I suggest you better attend, it is said that this year's new county magistrate will also attend the sorority. I heard my dad say that this sorority is actually very simple, that is, the heads of relatively large enterprises in Fuyuan County get together, meet with the leaders of the county government, and the main leaders say a few words, and then everyone has a meal, and it is over. ”

Guan Yuntian didn't say anything, just nodded, and after Lin Nan left, he took the invitation to Ye Jiayi's office, "This, you go and participate." ”

"What?" Ye Jiayi took the invitation and looked at it, "You can pull it down, people are inviting the main person in charge of the company, and the invitation letter will be sent directly to you, what's the matter if I go to participate?"

"I really don't like to attend that kind of occasion, you are the general manager, and you can represent Changda Group Company. Guan Yuntian said very seriously.

"You don't like that kind of occasion, do I like it?" Ye Jiayi glanced at Guan Yuntian.

"Alas, it seems that it is difficult for you to do something!" Guan Yuntian said with a smile, picked up the invitation letter on the table, shook his head and turned around and left Ye Jiayi's office.

At nine o'clock in the morning of the next day, according to the address on the invitation letter, Guan Yuntian asked the driver to send him to the Xinyue Hotel, which is the meeting place of the party, and found the conference room on the third floor.

On the one hand, Guan Yuntian is low-key and does not like publicity, and on the other hand, Changda Group is very large, and many bosses know Guan Yuntian, but it is not good to take the initiative to come to him to talk, because other bosses are afraid that they will not be able to climb high.

After a few minutes, Lin Xueming, general manager of Fuyuan County Flour Mill, walked into the venue, several bosses stepped forward to greet him, and Lao Lin shook hands one by one.

At this time, Guan Yuntian also heard Lin Xueming's voice, he turned his head to look, and quickly stood up, Lao Lin is Guan Yuntian's nobleman, several loans in the initial stage of Changda Company were all guaranteed by Lin Xueming in the name of Fuyuan Flour Mill, and several crises faced by Changda Company at that time, Lao Lin personally came forward to find friends to help resolve it, although Lao Lin's daughter Lin Nan played a great role in it, but Lao Lin's kindness, Guan Yuntian will never forget it for the rest of his life.

"Uncle Lin, are you here too?" Guan Yuntian strode over and took the initiative to stretch out his hands to shake Lao Lin.

"Because I am the person in charge of a local state-owned enterprise, I participate in this gathering every year, after all, the leaders still have to give face. If I'm not mistaken, this is your first time participating, right?" said Lin Xueming.

"Even this time, if it weren't for Lin Nan's repeated persuasion, I wouldn't want to come, to be honest, I'm not interested in this kind of occasion. ”

"Hey, I'm such an old man, and I'm not interested in this kind of occasion, the key is that there are only a few famous business owners in Fuyuan County, if they don't attend, the leaders will be embarrassed, in fact, I came here to give them a face, listen to them say a few words, and then have a meal, it's as simple as that. "Lin Xueming has been deeply involved in the local political and business circles for many years, and he is quite experienced in dealing with people.

"Yes, so under Lin Nan's urging, I had no choice but to bite the bullet. ”

Lao Lin patted Guan Yuntian on the shoulder, "It's right to come, isn't it just a delay for half a day?" Yuntian, I'll go over there to say hello, come back later, let's sit together at noon, how about it?"

"Okay, Uncle Lin, you go get busy first. Guan Yuntian returned to his original seat.

At this time, the leaders of the county government also walked into the venue one after another, and Deputy County Elder Song, who was in charge of industry, waved his hand to Guan Yuntian, which was regarded as a greeting.

Through the window, Guan Yuntian looked out aimlessly, and at this time, a person walked from behind him, "Mr. Guan is so leisurely, did I disturb you to enjoy the beautiful scenery outside the window?"

Hearing the voice, Guan Yuntian turned his head suddenly, was stunned at first, and then said: "You are ----?, County Magistrate Liu, hello!" He immediately stood up and took the initiative to stretch out his hands to shake County Magistrate Liu.

County Magistrate Liu is the deputy county magistrate in charge of agriculture in Fuyuan County, and they met for the first time at the opening ceremony of Guan Yuntian's donation to build the road, and both left a good impression on each other. But Deputy County Magistrate Liu is in charge of agriculture and has no intersection with Guan Yuntian's Changda Group, and since then, the two have not been able to get together again, so when he turned back just now, Guan Yuntian was still a little rusty.

"Mr. Guan, please take a seat, I didn't expect you to come. Deputy County Magistrate Liu sat down on a chair next to Guan Yuntian.

"Hey, I really can't push it off, I don't hide it from County Magistrate Liu, I'm not used to this kind of occasion. Although he didn't have a deep friendship, he probably felt that he had a good temper with Deputy County Magistrate Liu, and Guan Yuntian didn't hide his words.

Deputy County Magistrate Liu smiled, "Yes, this kind of occasion is mainly a formality, in fact, it is useless, but this is also what government departments should do." ”

"County Magistrate Liu, it's been almost two years since we last met, right? You are usually busy with work, so I can't bother you, but you passed in front of our company, and you didn't go to Changda Company to rest and help us guide and guide our work?"

"Changda Group's business is a traditional manufacturing industry, I am a person who has been engaged in agriculture for half a lifetime, how dare I guide the work! Rest, I am busy with you, how many times have I passed by the road in front of the gate of Changda Group, I really want to go in to visit you, and then I think about it, I am still busy with my own work, and it is better not to disturb. ”

"County Magistrate Liu is too polite, if you go to Changda Group, we will only feel honored, and we won't bother at all. ”

"Mr. Guan, has Changda Group done any new projects in the past two years?"

"It's a shame to say that in the past two years, we have wasted our time, stood still, and failed to live up to the expectations of our leaders. ”

"Hi, to be a business, you have to seek truth from facts, make your own judgments and decisions according to the specific situation, and don't be burdened by anyone's expectations, otherwise there will be endless troubles. However, I still want to recommend one of my ideas to you, you can listen to it, I will first declare that this is not my expectation, if there is reference value, I am very honored, if not interested, the right to deaf ears. ”
