Chapter 381 Cooperation

That handsome guy is in Huacheng, having dinner with the head of the production workshop at the fruit factory.

The discussion was about the allocation of workers into the factory.

"Don't worry, Director Lu. They're not children anymore. There's no need to put them all together. Just assign them to whichever workshop needs people."

Factory Director Lu was a bald man with a receding hairline, and he looked like he was deep in thought, but he already had a plan in mind.

Xiao Cheng's suggestion was that all 51 employees could be assigned to different workshops instead of being specifically placed in the same workshop, so that they could adapt.

People work just to make a living. The economy in their hometown is not good, so they have no choice but to go out and seek development opportunities.

They are all children from impoverished families, hardworking and able to adapt to the new environment quickly.

This proposal is not only not detrimental to Director Lu Yu, but is actually more beneficial.

The factory has dozens of workshops and hundreds of production lines. 51 people is not a lot, but it is not a small number either.

Each production line has a fixed production task.

If all 51 people are assigned to the same workshop and the same production line, and they all go on strike, the entire production line will be rendered useless, orders cannot be fulfilled, and the losses will be severe.

It would be best to arrange them separately in different workshops.

Even if the employees agree to a collective strike, the factory has technical experts who can immediately fill in, one or two positions.

Even two or three, or even four, positions.

One technical backbone can do the work of three or four ordinary workers, and each workshop has at least five or six technical backbones.

This is a backup force for individual employees on the production line who need to use the restroom or who may suddenly quit for various reasons.

However, with the entire production line on strike and dozens of people on strike simultaneously, five or six key technical personnel were not enough.

Other production lines also need to meet orders, and technical staff in other workshops are busy with substitute work or other tasks.

In a short time, it's impossible to spare so many people to fix the entire production line that's on strike.

If there are not enough staff, the production line cannot be started, and orders cannot be fulfilled.

The consequences of overdue orders not only include financial losses but also damage to the company's reputation.

More importantly, the fact that a factory manager could not even predict such a common risk and failed to make any contingency plans led to a worsening of the adverse reaction and increased losses.

They will inevitably be demoted due to insufficient handling skills, poor responsiveness, and mismatch between their abilities and their position.

Even if they aren't demoted, they'll still be fined, leaving a bad impression on their superiors.

The road ahead will inevitably be difficult.

By separating the 51 people into different workshops, there will be no problems later. Even if there is a sudden collective strike, each workshop will have technical backbones who can fill in at any time.

That would be perfect.

Therefore, Lu Yu agreed to Xiao Cheng's advantageous and harmless suggestion without any hesitation.

"I have no reason not to trust the people that Boss Xiao brought. I will definitely make proper arrangements for you."

Even without this meal, Lu Yu would not refuse this suggestion that was entirely beneficial.

"I was worried that young people would feel uncomfortable working with strangers all around them since it's their first time in the workforce. But since Boss Xiao has said so, I can rest assured."

Xiao Cheng is a man who never easily reveals his emotions. Even when he achieves his goal, he simply raises the corner of his mouth slightly and raises his glass to toast with his collaborators in a formulaic manner.

"Director Lu must have exceptional insights to have earned him this position. I look forward to seeing his continued support."

"Mr. Xiao, you flatter us! You not only provide our company with high-quality fresh fruit, but also with hardworking and excellent employees. Your business is sure to flourish. Let's drink to this, and we'll definitely cooperate often in the future!"

"Definitely, definitely."
