"It's more useful to stop talking than to stop working overtime yourself."
"Haven't you heard of 'what the boss does, the subordinates follow'? If the boss leads the way in working overtime, even if you say it, the subordinates will think you're just saying it."
"Moreover, that's just how things are in China; there are almost no companies that don't require overtime at all, so there's only so much we can do."
"I have tried my best to reduce the weight of overtime in the year-end performance evaluation, and I have paid all employees who work overtime in accordance with the regulations."
After speaking privately with Cheng Gang, Zheng Li said he would give Cheng Gang a dignified ending, and that Cheng Gang could still serve as the chief consultant at Kechuang Biotechnology if he wished.
The offer was the same as before, but Cheng Gang refused without hesitation; he didn't need the money.
He has come to terms with many things and plans to invest in several projects over the next few years before retiring.
The second person Zheng Li spoke to separately was Li Miaomiao, who was the third most powerful executive at Kechuang Biotechnology.
He was also one of the earliest founding team members.
Since the establishment of Kechuang Biotechnology, Li Miaomiao initially assisted Cheng Gang with some personnel work, and later she was directly responsible for the personnel of the entire group.
Therefore, I have a deep understanding of Zheng Li's point about creating a good working environment for researchers.
Whether it's the overall environment or the problems that plague large corporations at a certain stage of development, it's clear that Zheng Li's ideas are unlikely to be implemented.
Li Miaomiao continued, "Even many internet companies in Silicon Valley require overtime work, but the domestic media environment only promotes Silicon Valley companies that don't require overtime."
"Managing a company with tens of thousands of employees requires allowing the existence of phenomena that you don't like. This is a major lesson I've learned over the past few years."
Over the years, Li Miaomiao has seen many promising middle managers, but they couldn't resist the temptation and were bribed by suppliers or had their company information sold.
The first time I was shocked, the second time I doubted my own judgment, and then I came to a deep understanding that human nature cannot withstand the test.
Not to mention improper relationships between senior executives and subordinates, and managers using their power to open doors for their relatives to enter the company.
She had seen too many similar things.
When you are in a high position, the actions of those below you will be reported to you.
Where there are people, there are interests and competition; competition is even more intense for companies the size of Kechuang Biotechnology.
Your improper behavior will be reported to higher-ups by your competitors through various means.
Not to mention that Kechuang Bio has an anonymous whistleblowing channel within the company.
Therefore, after Zheng Li finished speaking today, Li Miaomiao felt that Zheng Li was still too naive and had not seen the complexities of human nature.
Zheng Li laughed and said, "Even if what I said has no effect, it's better to say it than not to say it at all."
"At least after I say these words, my meaning will be conveyed to the employees below."
"At least it will save them from having to work overtime for the next two days."
"It is your job to create a good long-term working environment in the future."
Li Miaomiao was somewhat surprised by Zheng Li's reaction, because it was rare for Zheng Li to feel powerless about something he wanted to do:
"This is a long-term project. In fact, the working environment of Kechuang Bio is already considered very good among domestic companies."
"Many other companies do not pay overtime wages, or if they do, they calculate overtime wages based on the base salary."
"At least we calculate overtime pay based on the actual wages paid, and very few companies can do that."
In China, many companies clearly distinguish between basic salary and performance-based salary on their pay slips.
With a salary of 10,000, your base salary would likely only be around 3,000. Overtime pay would mostly be calculated based on this base salary.
In other words, your overtime pay is not only less than double your normal wage, but it may even be less than your normal wage.
"Since surpassing Hua Wei to become the number one most attractive employer in China two years ago, we have ranked first on this list for three consecutive years."
The reason why Kechuang Bio can pay salaries and other benefits according to the highest standards is mainly due to the high profit margin of the company's products.
Most of its products hold a monopoly position and enjoy high premiums.
"By the way, do you have any other instructions for my work this time? It's rare for you to come back."
Li Miaomiao joked that she goes to Singapore almost every month in real life, so the idea of ​​something rare simply doesn't exist.
Zheng Li said directly, "You need to take over Cheng Gang's work well. The handover will be completed within this year."
"Also, if you have too much work to do, delegate some of it to other senior executives."
Li Miaomiao nodded and said, "Actually, as long as I manage personnel and finance well, the company won't fall into chaos."
"With you personally in charge of research and development, there is a lower limit to the company's development."
"Will Cheng Gang resign directly, or will he be given another honorary position?"
Zheng Li shook his head and said, "I asked, and Cheng Gang doesn't want to stay. He plans to work at his own investment company for a few years and then retire."
Li Miaomiao: "It's normal. When you're in a high position, no one wants to be marginalized and stay in the same unit."
"Not to mention Cheng Gang isn't short of money. It would be strange if he wanted to stay."
"If Lao Cheng hadn't made a mistake, he wouldn't have been marginalized."
"But after he leaves, we need to recruit a new vice president specifically in charge of ****."
"Since you transferred some of your shares to Huaguo Investment at the beginning of this year, ****'s importance has been increasing."
"Not to mention that after Deep Blue storage came out of nowhere, there have been rumors in the market that the government has a lot of cutting-edge technologies waiting to be released."
