Chapter 461: Make the best use of everything and everyone

"Cheer up. The group headquarters is having a meeting today. All the leaders of the subsidiaries and branches are here. They might come to inspect the areas after the meeting. So be alert and don't lose face."

"Forget it, the big leaders are all staying at the hotel venue, they won't come out. I heard from the administration department that they went to set up the venue the day before yesterday, and the standard for each table was tens of thousands.

I heard that a bottle of mineral water costs more than 100 yuan. There is a golf course behind the villa hotel where the meeting is held. The various entertainment facilities are simply unheard of. Won’t I have to swing a few clubs after the meeting?

There is no time to inspect the work."

The two-story building in Modu where Qingyun was located when it was first established has now been taken over by Modu District 2, which is the Minhang Regional Management Department, as its regional office location.

Although District 2 was established only two years ago, this is where the group started. From Liang Xiaolong to the present, there have been five regional managers including Liu Xiaobo, and each of them was successfully promoted from this position.

The more impressive ones include Liang Xiaolong, who is already the director of the East China region of the group, and Liu Xiaobo, who is also the deputy director of the Central China region and general manager of the Hunan branch. The remaining two are now also provincial and regional general managers.

The fifth person, Zheng Huanran, who is also the current deputy general manager of the Shanghai region and regional manager of the second district, is also from Hunan Province. It seems that this position is a back garden reserved for people from Hunan Province, and no one else can sit there.

He whistled and said to the assistant manager who was bragging beside him, "Others don't know, but Boss Liang will definitely come over to sit down, so you should warn everyone below to avoid getting caught in the crossfire.

And clean those three desks for me. If there is even a little dust or damage, I will tear your head off and kick it like a ball."

The assistant manager chuckled, "I won't give you a chance. Don't I know that Mr. Liang always comes over every time he returns to Shanghai? Don't worry, I have wiped those tables myself. They are very clean."

Speak of the devil, the devil appears. Before he finished speaking, Liang Xiaolong walked in alone. The two hurried to greet him. Zheng Huanran said, "Boss Liang, why are you here?"

"Why, do I need to notify you in advance before I go back to my own home?"

"How dare I? I just want to welcome you in advance."

“It’s not that complicated.”

Liang Xiaolong treated this place as his own home. He got a clean rag and ran to the three tables. He touched them before wiping them and said, "How many times have you said that?

Don't use disinfectant, it's too irritating and can easily damage the table. Bring me some wet tissues and wipe it thoroughly."

When the company was first established, we didn't have much money, and the desks and chairs we purchased were just barely adequate. They were all second-hand, and there are not many left today. If it were someone else, they would have been thrown away long ago.

He was the only one who managed to save the three sets of tables and chairs, and asked his subordinates not only not to throw them away but also to preserve them well.

It was not for any other reason, but because he and his boss, Yang Zhichao, moved these three tables and chairs by themselves and had used them for several months, so he would check them carefully every time he came.

If it's even slightly damaged, they'll curse. Over time, the people below have learned their lesson and just leave it there. No one dares to touch it. As soon as he leaves, they wrap it with a special protective film for fear that it will be damaged.

Zheng Huanran smiled and handed over the wet tissue. "Boss Liang, don't worry. These three tables and chairs are more important than my life. These are not disinfectants, but protective fluids. We specially asked someone to match them according to the materials."

"You guys are so thoughtful. This table is where the boss sat when he started his business. You must protect it well."

Liang Xiaolong wiped it very carefully, not missing any details, and he looked as if he was wiping a rare treasure.

It took him more than ten minutes to clean a table, going up and down, inside and out, before he felt satisfied.

Zheng Huanran and the other person didn't dare to leave. They stood respectfully by and could only pass tissues to others.

"Please sit down. I'm not here to check on your work. I want to discuss something with you."

After Liang Xiaolong finished all this, he asked them to sit down, and before the two of them could speak, he continued: "The boss talked to me today and planned to let me go to Qingyun Agriculture and be responsible for farming in the future.

Farming is good. I used to farm when I was at home. Now I go back to farming. It’s my old profession.”

"Is the farming you're talking about the same as farming in my hometown? How many people dream of going to an agricultural giant that employs more than 150,000 people and cooperates with 6 million farmers?"

Zheng Huanran muttered to himself, and said, "Great news. Congratulations to Mr. Liang for making a further step forward and getting promoted and rich. Do you want me to arrange a few tables tonight and invite all the old brothers?"

Both of them are from Hunan Province. He was promoted by Liang Xiaolong, so there is no need to pretend in front of him.

"Forget about setting up a few tables. I'm going to take all of you over. In District 2, the people from Hunan Province always make the decisions. If this gets out, it'll give us a bad reputation. People might think we're forming cliques.

If you have any comments, feel free to raise them now."

Liang Xiaolong doesn't care about the opinions of the outside world at all, but his boss has passed the stage where he needs the support of the company's basic foundation. The fact that he has been transferred to Qingyun Agriculture is proof of this.

His recommendation of Liu Xiaobo to take over was unsuccessful. He realized that it was time to change the composition of the system and stop using people from his hometown, which gave the outside world the stereotype of forming cliques.

Of course, if the boss doesn't treat him unfairly, he won't treat his direct subordinates unfairly. For example, although Liu Xiaobo cannot take over the East China region, it would be good for him to be converted to a regular employee in Central China.

As for Zheng Huanran and others, he planned to pack them up and take them away to enrich the middle class of Qingyun Agriculture.

Zheng Huanran certainly wouldn't refuse. "I don't have any objection. Boss Liang, you say that we can go wherever you want. We can go through fire and water without any problem."

"You are good in everything, except that you learned too much gangsterism in your previous company."

Liang Xiaolong criticized it lightly, and then said: "Let me tell you something, it's a great thing, the group investment company has set up an industrial fund B, which indirectly holds 51% of Qingyun Agriculture's shares.

You have seen the situation this year. Millions of tons of cotton are just the beginning. Next will be tens of millions of cattle, hundreds of millions of pigs, and countless more crops, fruits and vegetables.

There is an agricultural service company as a foundation. As long as you invest money, you will have no worries about food and drink. Are you interested in investing?
I forgot to mention that there is an investment threshold, starting at 5 yuan, and you must be a grassroots manager of the group, or have been an outstanding employee for two consecutive years.

At the very least, we have to invest in Qingyun Yijiale Supermarket and become a shareholder of the chain restaurant stores."

"No, come again?"

Zheng Huanran was stunned. He felt a headache when he thought about the equity investment plan. Even though he was about to leave, he couldn't help but mourn for his successor. "There was a lot of noise about the supermarket equity investment and job transfer.

Those who are eligible to buy shares in the supermarket are not the core and outstanding employees of the site, right?

If tens of thousands of people go back at once, will the takeaway delivery business still be able to continue?"

Fortunately, news of the company's "huge losses" in the financial industry spread in the middle of the process, causing most people to back off, mistakenly believing that the company wanted to make up for the losses by siphoning funds from ordinary employees.

It was later proved to be a smokescreen designed to confuse competitors, but it scared the middle and lower-level management and all the core employees were transferred away. Training is not that easy.

For example, the delivery king can plan every moment of his time rationally and is familiar with every street and alley in the city. With the same number of orders and route, he can deliver them faster than others and has a higher rate of positive reviews.

Another example is excellent promoters and salesmen, who can always use their own advantages to complete the tasks assigned by the company quickly and accurately and in excess.

Professional talents who can stand out among many competitors are welcomed wherever they go. They go home to open supermarkets and then transfer back to their hometown to set up new sites. What should they do with the old sites?
Therefore, when the policy continued to be implemented in July, many managers deliberately suppressed its implementation and did not answer the doubts of their subordinates. In short, they delayed it for as long as possible.

Now that the company has freed up its hands and put a lot of effort into promotion, everyone has to complain even if they can't handle it.

"Bullshit, nowadays we recruit the best of the best, so why worry about not having good talents to join us?"

Liang Xiaolong saw through their little tricks a long time ago and didn't indulge them at all. "The whole country is like a chessboard. Who doesn't want to be closer to home? It's more cost-effective to earn 5,000 in my hometown than 8,000 in Shanghai.

If you block people's progress like this, aren't you afraid of being criticized in the future?" "Yes, but the problem is that there is no mandatory order, which proves that the company also has concerns."

Zheng Huanran argued, "The most critical role of an excellent employee is not how much performance he can create. To be honest, if you deliver food 30% more a day, it's just that.

The key is to have such a person in the site who can attract new members or give old hands a goal to strive for. The positive attitude of outstanding talents can infect others.

Especially when the monthly salary is paid, if there are a few more employees earning 8,000 yuan, it will be a great incentive for the people below. Who doesn’t work for money? "

"Just lie to me. Without excellent role models, you can't manage effectively? Then what are the bonus packages and market incentives for?"

Liang Xiaolong has been working at the grassroots level for many years and has long been immune to their tricks. "Don't think I don't know that you deduct bonuses from the bonus package and incentive expenses every month, and find various ways to increase your income.

The company is just turning a blind eye and is too lazy to care, but you must not take all this for granted. If you take it seriously, sending you to jail would be the least of your worries.

Well, you're lucky. The boss doesn't bother to argue with you. This time, he has launched a stock ownership plan for all outstanding employees. Each person starts with 5 yuan. After two or three years, it's easy to buy a car."

Zheng Huanran did the math and realized that if the core employees ran away, he would have to spend extra money to motivate other employees to complete the tasks assigned by the company, and he would have to pay extra money to Hummingbird Crowdsourcing.

Hire some temporary workers to complete those unskillful tasks that no one wants to do, which will cost at least several thousand extra dollars per site per month.

It is said that excellent employees are hardworking and never complain. Tasks that no one else is doing or cannot be done are thrown to them, and they are given a random bonus to fool around, and they keep the rest.

This is the company's rule. To complete a task, you first have to make a budget and achieve the desired effect. Any remaining amount will be distributed proportionally as a bonus to the execution team.

Of course the person in charge gets the biggest share, so it is the grassroots management that is beneficial to the grassroots, has particularly good execution, can reasonably arrange resource allocation, and satisfies the vast majority of people.

Life is very comfortable. Although the salary is only 5,000 or 6,000 yuan, when you calculate the annual salary, it is common to find people who earn more than 100,000 yuan. The key is that they don't have to do much work.

The company will also have some free time, which is better than wasting funds meaninglessly. As long as the purpose is achieved, it's fine.

The current implementation of jointly held industrial funds is also a way to stimulate the enthusiasm of grassroots managers in various ways, allowing them to take on more responsibilities on their own initiative.

The injection of 51% shares of Qingyun Agricultural Services Company is just the beginning. Later, shares of Chimai, Fengniao, Yunyunbang and Shunfeng Chuxing will be injected one after another.

These companies all have the obvious characteristic of completing market coverage through manpower, and the conditions for purchasing industrial fund shares will also be relaxed later.

For example, YunYunBang truck drivers and online car-hailing drivers can purchase the product as long as they meet certain standards, such as few complaints, high service quality, and high order completion rate.

Imagine an excellent employee who indirectly holds shares in the company he works for. In addition to earning a salary through hard work, he can also earn extra dividends through the development of the company.

Will he try harder?
Will there be no sense of belonging?

Do you dare to join a third party behind the company's back and secretly take private orders?
Take-out, express delivery, online ride-hailing, and online logistics and transportation services do not have high barriers to entry, and there are no technical restrictions, in case there are policy changes in the future.

For example, in history, with a single order to suppress Didi, dozens of competitors emerged in the market in an instant, and Li Zehua had no time to deal with so many monsters and demons.

We can simply do it in one step: all outstanding employees will hold shares. When the company develops well, everyone can enjoy the dividends of development together, with the strong support of millions of core employees in the future.

Anyone who is short-sighted enough to want to come in and get a piece of the pie will have to face silent boycotts organized spontaneously by countless grassroots organizations. If you are capable, you should at least give company bonuses to all employees.

This plan has also received support from core friendly companies such as BOE, JD Group, and Tongda Group. Isn't it just allowing their own employees to purchase shares of Qingyun Investment Industrial Fund?
In the future, they may take additional shares, or authorize Qingyun Investment to use their own shares as collateral to issue the company's employee funds.

"The matter is basically a foregone conclusion. You have to execute it whether you understand it or not."

Liang Xiaolong put it bluntly, "In the past, the use of incentive funds, bonus packages, and personal gains were within the scope of the company's rules and regulations, so everyone turned a blind eye.

The annual dividends of employee stock ownership funds will not be less than what they received before. In a few years, they may even enjoy premium appreciation benefits due to investments in the secondary market.

If you try again, don’t blame the company for being ruthless.”

Zheng Huanran smiled bitterly, "How dare I? I'm afraid everyone won't be able to figure it out for a while. If I transfer so many people back at the same time, will the market be able to accept it smoothly?"

"That's not for you and me to decide."

Liang Xiaolong thought for a moment, "Now we are adding more counties and key towns across the country at once, and we are going to open up special delivery and logistics lines. I heard that they are also providing free shipping services in eastern Guangdong, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shanghai, Beijing and Tianjin.

There are obvious requirements for improving grassroots coverage, staff size, and quality. We can't just rest on our laurels, right?
The boss himself suggested that it would take three to five years to build free shipping areas in all key urban areas in central and eastern China, to shape a new express delivery model, and to change the single-ticket charge to a proportional charge.

We should strive to reduce logistics costs through the participation of all the people and build a smart logistics network covering most of the country. In short, there is still debate on how to do it specifically.

However, the pilot work will start first in the agricultural service company, which is why the boss personally asked me to do it.

Chain supermarkets and community fruit and vegetable supermarkets are just the first step. They are the foundation. They provide value-added services to agriculture. If done well, they will free up more manpower to participate in international competition.

Create more labor value."

In the past 20 months, Liang Xiaolong has studied in Jiaotong University, Fudan University, and Jinling University. The upper limit of his theoretical knowledge has been infinitely raised, and combined with practical knowledge, he can now speak fluently.

Zheng Huanran didn't understand anyway, he just knew that the company was playing a big game again, but it had nothing to do with him, he just needed to follow Liang Xiaolong, listen to him, and do good things...

"We will attract capital with resources from outside, and absorb all those who are willing to provide support for the development of the group in the short term, and unite all available forces for our use.

For example, among the group of people present today, who is not a leader in the industry? Isn’t Ali Tengda trying to win over the group’s competitors and pass on information to the higher-ups, in an attempt to restrict the company’s development through policy strikes?

Okay, let's use a trick to replace the old one. Tenda's evil deeds on the Internet computer side have been going on for a long time, curbing innovation and using its traffic advantage to suppress its peers.

Now that so many people are gathered together, can we also give the above suggestions and impose restrictions?

Don't worry about whether the group will be able to achieve this level of control in the future. Do you still want to learn from Tengda and do evil?"

In his speech to the group's senior executives, Li Zehua emphasized several points: "If the group intends to use its monopoly advantage to earn excess profits, there is no need to allow you and grassroots employees to hold shares.

Do you really think money falls from the sky?

To put it bluntly, if you hadn't purchased shares in the investment fund, I would have earned more and might have become a 200 billionaire by now.

"Everyone, please be quiet and keep your head down. Qingyun is not like other companies. I am not interested in money!"

He has always had this attitude: once money exceeds 100 million, it becomes dead money if it is not circulated, and is a trophy saved for others.

Only by constantly cashing in, converting money into resources and influence, and by attracting more people to get on board and escort him, can he successfully reach the other side.

Just like the money he spent on Zhang Tao and others, to date it is not 500 million, but at least 400 million. There are only two or three hundred people, and the average cost per person is only about one million.

But the results were completely different. He didn't dare to boast that he would kill someone, but he asked them to act secretly to solve certain hidden dangers for the group and then send them to Africa after that.

It is guaranteed that there will be a large group of people willing to take the initiative to share the burden, this is called making the best use of resources! (End of this chapter)
