Rebirth 1990: I have three golden fingers

Xinghai Machinery Company.

HR manager Lai Xia knocked on the door and walked into the chairman's office. She asked the chairman if she had anything to say:

"Chairman, it's New Year's Day, do you want to give holiday benefits to employees?"

The company's profits are good, and Lai Xia also knows that her boss is very generous and will definitely make money, it just depends on how she makes it.

If the company's performance is not good and the boss doesn't mention it, she would be too embarrassed to ask. As an HR manager, she must handle employee welfare issues.

Welfare benefits are usually given out during holidays, and most of them are given out on New Year's Day and Spring Festival.

"Oh, I've forgotten about this because I'm so busy. I should really prepare now." Fang Bai slapped his forehead and smiled awkwardly. New Year's Day is only a few days away. If you want to buy something in kind, you have to prepare in advance.

Many employees have to go home, and it is difficult for employees to move home if they are given physical goods, which simply adds to the burden on employees.

However, if it is purely about giving out money, employees will not be willing to spend money at all.

From a social perspective, it is best to promote consumption.

After thinking for a while, he came up with an idea: "Manager Lai, the New Year's Day and Spring Festival holidays are not many days apart. Let's distribute them together. Each person has a 200-yuan Hualian Supermarket shopping voucher to save trouble.

I bought a few more carts of seasonal fruits and divided them up, with each person taking seven or eight kilograms to promote the sales of agricultural products. "

The machinery company currently has 500 employees, excluding sales staff in various provinces, and is still expanding its recruitment.

As for the new company technology company, the number of employees is close to one thousand.

The two companies spent a total of 300,000 yuan during the two festivals, which is a lot of money.

In fact, for each shopping voucher worth 200 yuan, the company only needs to spend 1,780 yuan.

For company employees, these two hundred shopping vouchers are quite a lot, worth half a month's salary. In other companies, it would be a month's salary.

Employees who have worked for more than half a year are even more looking forward to the fact that they will also receive year-end bonuses. The current holiday allowance is just an appetizer.

"Okay, then I'll make arrangements."

Manager Lai left happily after hearing the boss's arrangement. The employees will definitely be happy when they find out.

Hualian Supermarket is also owned by the owner. There are two universities nearby. There is a Hualian Supermarket in the university. The company has greeted the school. Employees wearing the work clothes of both companies can enter and leave the university to shop at the supermarket at will.

A few days later, when getting off work in the afternoon, Xinghai Technology Company and Xinghai Machinery Company announced the New Year's Day holiday and Spring Festival holiday time, and also announced the holiday benefit payment arrangements. The employees were very happy when they learned about it and rushed to tell each other.

"The company will give out holiday benefits the day after tomorrow. Each employee will be given a 200 yuan supermarket shopping card."

"That's pretty good. It's enough to cover daily necessities for a year."

"It's a pity that Hualian Supermarket doesn't sell clothes. I don't want to buy one or two sets for my children."

"If you think the shopping voucher is not good, give me the shopping voucher and I will give you a hundred yuan."

"It's a good idea. If you sell 150 yuan to those students, they will all rush for it. It's better to spend it yourself. Anyway, you have to spend money to buy daily necessities."

Chen Dahai is an ordinary machining worker at Xinghai Machinery Company. He is 32 years old and is responsible for operating a CNC drilling machine. His monthly salary is 430 yuan. If he works a lot of overtime, his monthly salary can reach 600 yuan.

His salary is nothing in the company, and skilled welders earn more than him.

The company's engineers earn more, with double pay at the end of the year, while their workers only have one month's salary, but this is nothing to envy. The company values ​​scientific and technological talents.

Before joining Xinghai Machinery Company, Chen Dahai worked in a state-owned enterprise with a monthly income of about 200 yuan. The benefits were also good and he was often given free rice. Being a worker is still very popular these days.

But when compared with the current company, the job that used to be so good suddenly felt different.

At Xinghai Company, employees eat well for lunch, with plenty of meat and delicious food. The company hires a professional chef to take care of the canteen meals.

As for the food in the original company cafeteria, the vegetables were fried to a yellowish color and were as dull as the yellow-faced woman. They were soft and tasteless, as if they were boiled with too little oil. There are even fewer meat dishes. After a spoonful of meat dishes, after flipping with chopsticks for a long time, I can only find one or two small pieces of meat. The rest are all vegetarian dishes or tofu.

Before coming to Xinghai Company, he thought it was pretty good, at least he could eat enough.

If there is really no comparison, there will be no harm.

Also, during normal holidays, the original company gives out gifts that seem to be many, but they are not very valuable.

Especially the Mid-Autumn Festival mooncakes and Dragon Boat Festival rice dumplings distributed by the original company. Oops, those ones were too unpalatable. The mooncakes were hard and there were only two rice dumplings. Moreover, there was no meat in the rice dumplings, just red dates.

If it’s not meat rice dumplings, it doesn’t have any taste. The soup is originally clear and watery, so how can a sweet date satisfy their desire?

They often discussed in private that the leaders in charge of purchasing must have connections with outside manufacturers, and they did not know how many benefits they had gained.

Xinghai Group likes to issue Hualian Supermarket shopping cards, so you can buy whatever you like. Leaders can't be greedy even if they want, because the company has unified benefits.

I occasionally have fruits and snacks when I work overtime, and popsicles in the summer.

During this year's Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day, Xinghai Company issued two hundred yuan shopping vouchers, and Chen Dahai has not used them up yet.

It's winter, and the company distributes two sets of military coats to employees. This kind of military coat just covers the buttocks, the cuffs are tightened, the cotton is thick enough, and it looks more classy. It is comfortable to wear in winter and does not affect work.

This is an unexpected surprise for all employees, and no one is willing to wear it when working.

The company requires workers in the workshop to dress uniformly and pay attention to hygiene and maintain the company's image, so everyone has no choice but to wear them reluctantly.

It turned out that some employees only took a shower for many days in winter and their hair was greasy.

Once, when the chairman was communicating with these workers, he couldn't bear to smell the smell, so he immediately issued an order asking employees to pay attention to personal hygiene so as not to affect communication among colleagues.

The chairman said: "The company has no control over employees' private lives, but personal hygiene and appearance really affect the company's image, and it also affects your personal health. What I hope to see is a vibrant employee, not a satisfied one." Greasy, sloppy and lackluster staff.

If you are low on energy and don’t have enough sleep, you can take time off to rest. How can you make money if your life is gone? "

Some employees were not satisfied with the chairman taking care of their personal hygiene issues at first. No company had such a request, so they were a little resistant at first, but what the chairman said still made sense. After a period of persistence, everyone got used to it. Employees who were unkempt should hurry up. I went for a haircut, and within two weeks, the overall appearance of the employee became better.

But I have to say that this trick is still very useful. When foreign businessmen come to inspect the company, they praise the company's employees for their good spirits.

After working overtime for an hour in the afternoon, Chen Dahai put on cotton gloves and the company's military coat, and rode a second-hand bicycle back to his rental house.

The rental area is only about thirty square meters, but the monthly rent is forty or fifty yuan.

This is the house he and his wife rent together. In fact, the company also arranges dormitories for employees. They are also rented, but the four-person rooms are quite spacious.

The company does not have many dormitories, but it has many employees, so it can only rent houses outside for employees to live in. It is said that after moving to the new factory, there will be no shortage of employee dormitories, and workers will have double rooms.

If you do not live in a rented house arranged by the company, the company will compensate you somewhat, but it is much lower than the rent. Therefore, most employees live in rented houses arranged by the company, but there are also many employees who rent their own houses.

The children are studying in their hometown, and their parents help take care of them. He and his wife are working in Shanghai. His wife is currently working in a small company, with a monthly salary of only more than 100 yuan.

The two of them had been working part-time for so many years. Before he joined Xinghai Company, he still had four to five thousand yuan in savings. He originally planned to save a few more years to build a building in his hometown.

However, the plan could not keep up with the changes.

After Chen Dahai entered Xinghai Company, he felt that the trajectory of his life had changed.

His salary has skyrocketed. He has been working for more than half a year now and works a lot of overtime. His average monthly salary reaches 600 yuan. He has saved more than half a year's salary, and his savings have reached 7,000 to 8,000 yuan.

At the same time, his ambitions expanded and he no longer planned to build buildings in the countryside, but planned to buy a house in the city.

It's a bit more difficult, but there is still hope. He and his wife plan to live frugally, not buy big appliances or motorcycles in the past few years, and save a down payment for a house.

Moreover, Chen Dahai heard good news. The group has a real estate company. He heard that it will soon develop real estate in Shanghai. It plans to build employee apartments and sell them to company employees at cost prices. This is the same as the housing allocation in state-owned enterprises. Kind of.

A workshop worker like him may have to perform well and work steadily for several years before he has a chance.

But if there is an opportunity, there is hope. It doesn’t matter if you wait a few more years. I am afraid that just like in the original company, you will have to wait a lifetime and the room ticket will not be your turn!

The leader just shouted the slogan "The company will solve the housing problem for employees!"

In our company, employees should not worry about houses or talk about money, but should talk about dreams!

Money is not a dream, don’t talk about money! "

As a worker, I strongly disagree with what these leaders said. If a worker doesn’t want to make money, then what is he thinking about?

Money is not a dream, but pie is?

There are elderly people and children at home, who will help them take care of them?

Do you expect the leader’s slogan?

Can this pie be eaten?

When Chen Dahai was young, he felt that what his leaders said made sense. Young people really need to accumulate more experience.

However, after working for more than ten years, he changed from a new employee to an old employee. Every year he said that there was hope for the house, but he felt that he was out of reach of their ordinary workers. Even for the core staff, it was difficult to get housing tickets.

Those high-ranking company leaders, with high salaries, no worries about housing, food and drink, talk about their dreams, and they probably have a lot of corruption in private.

He saw clearly, so he left the original company and came to Xinghai Group.

At Xinghai Group, he saw a different working atmosphere. The chairman would personally go to the workshop to guide the work and get close to the workers. There were still some slogans, but they were not outrageous, and if they were done, they would no longer be slogans.

Therefore, it is said that the company wants to build houses for employees, and employees think it is very possible.

Chen Dahai returned home with a hopeful mood. As soon as he stepped into the house, he smelled the aroma of fried sausages coming from the small kitchen.

As soon as he opened the door, a young woman in the kitchen glanced at the door. When she saw it was him, she said hello:

"You're back. Why are you back so late today? Didn't you say last night that you don't have to work overtime tonight?"

Chen Dahai laughed and said: "I worked overtime for an extra hour. I saw that the company announced the New Year's Day and Spring Festival holidays, as well as holiday benefits, and chatted with my colleagues for a while."

"Hmph, I thought I was fooling around in a hair salon outside."

"What nonsense are you talking about? I'm that kind of person."

"Once a man has money, it's not normal for him to go to such a place. There are still many employees in our company who are married. They are all married.

Let me tell you, you still have children at home, so don’t spend your money indiscriminately. "

"I won't go, don't worry. I just want to save money to buy a house now." Chen Dahai said truthfully. When there is hope in life, he is full of passion and is active in everything he does.

If you do this kind of thing in the company, if you are discovered, you will be fired. The company culture cannot tolerate such bad things.

Of course, if it is done secretly outside, the company has nothing to do with it.

"You just said that your company is giving out benefits during the holidays? What benefits?"

"It's just a two-hundred-yuan shopping voucher, just like the National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival. What did your company give out?"

"Let's give him a hammer!"

When Chen Dahai heard his wife mentioning her hometown, he knew it was nothing. He complained: "The boss of your company is really stingy."

The young woman curled her lips and said, "That's not true. I wanted to go to your company, but I couldn't get in. If I had known, I would have studied for two more years and at least got a junior high school diploma."

Chen Dahai shook his head with a smile: "Many people are rushing to get in now. It's useless just to have a junior high school diploma. It's just as difficult to get into high school as you have to have special skills.

We now have regular training to learn about 5S, quality system, and process knowledge. There are so many trainings that it makes my head confused. "

"Hey, if two people earn high wages, they can save a thousand yuan a month and build a house in a year."

"I heard that our company increases wages every year, so we might as well save money to buy a house in the city and become city dwellers!"

"You are from the city? That house is not cheap, right?" The young woman was a little surprised by Chen Dahai's plan. She had never thought about it.

Of course, she never thought that her husband could earn a salary of 600 yuan a month.

"I talked to my colleagues. The place in a remote area of ​​Shanghai costs more than a thousand yuan. It is more than 50 square meters. The full payment is 70,000 to 80,000 yuan, and the down payment is more than 20,000 yuan. We can save it in a few years. I heard that our company is extremely It is possible to build houses for employees and then sell them to employees at cost price, so the unit price will be even cheaper." Chen Dahai's eyes were full of hope.

"Husband, if you think about it this way, it seems that it is okay. You are from the city, and you are from Shanghai!" The young woman's eyes were shining, feeling that there was something exciting.

Being a city dweller has never occurred to me.

If it really succeeds, it will be very impressive back home.

"Husband, I hope you can continue working at Xinghai Company. There is really hope."

"Don't worry, Xinghai Company has given me hope. Of course I will keep working." Chen Dahai laughed.

In fact, most employees of Xinghai Company have the same idea as Chen Dahai.

Employees often participate in various trainings that talk about corporate cohesion and corporate culture, and employees have a strong sense of belonging.

As the chairman of Xinghai Group, Fang Bai did promise to college students that he would build houses for employees. Of course, it would not be for free, but he would just charge some interest on the cost price.

Now that land prices are cheap, it is relatively easy to provide each employee with a house.

If it were more than ten years later, Fang Bai would definitely not dare to make such a promise.

Without committing to a house, it will be very difficult to recruit college students.

Starting next year, Wencheng can start implementing employee apartments.

Shanghai City may have to wait until 1994.

The land here in Shanghai is expensive, and the construction cost is much higher. Only a small area can be built. After more than ten years, the employees will be particularly grateful for his wise decision.

Of course, Fang Bai hopes to get unplanned land for building employee apartments instead of using the land he has hoarded to build. He is still reluctant to part with the land he has hoarded for residential use. It is not good to use one piece less than one piece, and it is not good to have money. Purchase land.

If you want to impress the Shencheng government, you need to generate more foreign exchange to get land not planned by the government to build employee apartment buildings to attract talents.

A few days later, New Year's Day arrived and the company had a day off.

1993 finally arrived.

Fang Bai put down his work and summarized his achievements in the past year.

His personal wealth has risen to 1.05 billion yuan, and the number of connections has reached 140, which is still 20 short of upgrade.

When he has more free time, he plans to visit various suppliers, collect contacts, and see what new functions will be available when the ring finger is upgraded to level 5.

Fang Bai didn't pay much attention to Hualian Supermarket. He didn't know how many supermarkets were opened in total. There was no year-end bonus during the Spring Festival last year. Year-end bonus should be given to those students before this year.

Wealth and honor do not return to their hometown, just like walking in brocade at night.

The employees wanted it, and so did Fang Bai.

Some time ago, Wencheng government leaders called him and hoped that they would plan to visit him when he returned to his hometown this year.

Xinghai Group has developed so fast that it has become a leading enterprise in the region and has made great contributions to local economic development.

The machinery company's monthly revenue exceeded 100 million yuan, and it created 25 million US dollars in foreign exchange this year, and this is only the report card for the second half of the year.

The main construction of the second phase of Xinghai Plaza has been completed and is expected to be officially put into use in a few months.

This comprehensive shopping mall with a total investment of 200 million yuan is the largest shopping mall in Wencheng and the first open comprehensive shopping mall in the country, which is of extraordinary significance.

The opening of the second phase of Xinghai Plaza will further enhance Wencheng's commercial status, attract more consumers and businesses, and attract more investors to Wencheng.

Fang Bai also wants to go home to see his parents. After returning home for the New Year, he plans to discuss building a bridge with Wencheng government leaders. (End of chapter)
