Rebirth 1975: Tore up the call-back order at the beginning

Chen Lao's words were like dropping a heavy aerial bomb on a calm lake, instantly setting off a huge wave.

After the shock, everyone present spoke one after another to express their inner shock:

"Mr. Chen, are the higher-ups really going to spend 100 million US dollars to give bonuses to the comrades of the Scythe Project?"

"This is incredible, that's 100 million U.S. dollars, equivalent to more than 300 million yuan!"

"Now the comrades of the Scythe Project really want to gain both fame and fortune. Even if the distribution is based on head count, everyone can get a lot of money!"

"Who says it's not..."

Listening to everyone talking about their feelings, Mr. Chen immediately knocked on the conference table in front of him to signal everyone to be quiet.

"Comrades, Comrade Zhou Yang specially applied for the $100 million bonus for everyone in the Scythe Project Department to commend the comrades for their hard work and dedication. After deliberation at a meeting of the Presbyterian Council, this application was finally approved!"

After listening to Mr. Chen's explanation, everyone in the conference room couldn't help but marvel.

On the one hand, everyone was shocked at Zhou Yang's courage. He dared to apply for a bonus of 100 million US dollars. At the same time, they were also shocked at the courage of the senior management. He really dared to ask for it and give it to anyone.

That's 10 million... and it's still US dollars. Thinking back to the beginning of reform and opening up a few years ago, the State Administration of Foreign Exchange's annual foreign exchange reserves were less than billion US dollars.

Unexpectedly, just giving bonuses to comrades now would cost 100 million US dollars.

However, thinking about the situations reported by Yan Gengdong just now, it often costs tens of billions or hundreds of billions of dollars. It seems that it is not incomprehensible to use 100 million to commend the meritorious comrades.

Just as everyone was talking, Mr. Chen looked at Zhou Yang and said again: "Comrade Zhou Yang, the bonus has been received, how do you plan to distribute it?"

Zhou Yang didn't show any pretense. He took out a few pieces of letter paper from the crossbody bag he carried, handed it to Mr. Chen, and said: "Chief, this is the bonus distribution plan I have made during this period. Please take a look!"

However, Mr. Chen did not accept the document he handed over. Instead, he said with a smile: "I won't read the plan. You can just tell everyone about the content of the plan. Let's sum it up together!"

Zhou Yang nodded immediately, then looked at the content on the letter and said: "Everyone, the bonus allocated this time is 1 million U.S. dollars, totaling 3.45 million yuan. Currently, we have a total of 3276 members of the Sickle Project, including those who are assigned abroad. 2278 people, and 998 people from domestic headquarters, training bases, intelligence centers and other supporting units, including 1208 people sent by the military!”

"Among the 3276 people currently, except for the 455 people who are undergoing training in Badai Mountain, the rest have all directly or indirectly participated in this investment operation. Therefore, my bonus distribution plan is that all comrades participating in this operation will receive ten Ten thousand yuan, comrades who did not participate in the action will be given an additional three months’ salary as an encouragement. What do you think?”

As soon as he finished speaking, Mr. Chen nodded and said, "So, you mean that the bonuses will be treated equally regardless of merit, as long as they participate in the action?"

Minister Xu also echoed: "Reward based on merit, reward based on merit, merit first, reward after merit. This is a reward method that does not take credit equally. Doesn't it seem bad?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Yang explained: "Credit must be discussed, but our reward methods are not just bonuses, but promotions, salary increases, honorary certificates, honorary titles, etc., etc., all of which will be included. We want to highlight We can definitely start from these aspects due to the merits of the meritorious personnel.”

"As for the bonuses, I don't think they should be divided in such detail. After all, it is not easy for comrades who are assigned abroad or comrades in the domestic headquarters. It is indeed difficult to distinguish which one is higher and which is lower."

"Furthermore, as the old saying goes, "Don't worry about scarcity but inequality." Once the bonus distribution is unfair, the consequences may be more serious than not paying bonuses. Therefore, I think the bonuses will not be graded this time."

After all, Mr. Chen is a person who has experienced strong winds and waves, so he naturally understands that Zhou Yang's concerns are necessary. After all, this person just likes to compare with the people around him, and it is easy to feel unbalanced when compared.

Not to mention that it was their sickle plan. Even when the military ranks were awarded, many people complained because their military ranks did not meet their psychological expectations. If you want to truly achieve a bowl of water, it can be so easy.

Instead of doing this, it would be better to treat everyone equally regardless of their grades!

Thinking of this, Mr. Chen immediately said: "It is good that Comrade Zhou Yang is not worried about the scarcity but the inequality. Comrade Zhou Yang has considered it carefully. I think this bonus distribution plan is feasible!"

Minister Xu immediately echoed: "Indeed, if rewards are based on merit, it is indeed easy to cause controversy. Now the bonuses are the same for everyone, and there are slight differences in other rewards. I think everyone can accept it."

"Yes, this plan is relatively fair. I think comrades won't have much controversy!" Minister Song also said.

Seeing that these few people had spoken, others also spoke in support!

Seeing that no one had any objections, Mr. Chen immediately said: "In that case, let's distribute the bonus according to Comrade Zhou Yang's wishes!"

"I agree!"

"I agree!"

"I have no opinion..."

.........

After everyone finished expressing their opinions, Mr. Chen looked at Zhou Yang and said, "Comrade Zhou Yang, do you have anything else to add?"

"Have!"

Then Zhou Yang said again: "Chief, this is how the reward plan has been decided. I have no objection. But I think we should also develop a complete reward system. What do you think?"

Mr. Chen frowned and said immediately: "Do you want to make adjustments to the domestic reward system?"

Zhou Yang shook his head and said: "No, the impact of doing that is really too great, and it won't be done for a while. What I mean is that our Sickle Plan will develop a complete reward system internally, just like each enterprise's The internal regulations are the same.”

"As you know, our Sickle Project is mainly for foreign affairs, and two-thirds of our comrades are performing tasks abroad. It is obviously not suitable to manage these people by copying the domestic system."

"Not to mention anything else, just talking about wages and benefits, even the first-level salary in our country is only more than 4000 yuan a month, but now an old aunt who sweeps the floors in Yuanwei Company earns less than yuan a month. Thousands of Hong Kong dollars, and the average white-collar worker’s salary is at least Hong Kong dollars. Should we still pay our comrades according to domestic standards?”

Mr. Chen nodded and said: "What you said makes sense, tell me your specific method!"

"My idea is to divide the merit into three levels according to the size of the merit, namely first-class merit, second-class merit, and third-class merit, which are divided into individual and collective merit respectively, and corresponding rewards will be given according to the merit level. In addition to giving In addition to cash rewards, you can also enjoy certain benefits in terms of political treatment, living treatment, work treatment, etc. "

Then Zhou Yang continued: "For example, for example, first-class personal merit, we can clearly stipulate that as long as you are awarded first-class personal merit, you will receive a bonus of 10 yuan, be promoted to one level, and be awarded a medal of merit and a certificate of honor!"

Chen Lao thought for a while, then said: "Although this matter is an internal matter of our Scythe Project, it affects one of the things being discussed above, so let's not discuss it for the time being. After I finish reporting to the Presbyterian Council, we will discuss it again. Discuss this matter!”

Hearing this, Zhou Yang's heart moved, and he suddenly remembered a major event that was going to happen next year, which was the restoration of the military rank system.

Counting the time, the above should already be discussing this matter. No wonder Mr. Chen wants to suspend the discussion on this matter.

"Okay, we'll discuss this later, but Comrade Yan Gengdong came with an investment mission this time. Their investment areas will involve shopping malls, hotels, medicine, infrastructure and other industries, and they also need the support and cooperation of various departments. , while everyone is here, let’s discuss the detailed plan!” Zhou Yang said again.

Mr. Chen nodded and said, "I think it's okay. Let's take this opportunity to clarify the tasks of each unit and department!"

"it is good..."
