"say what?"
"Tell everyone to study hard?"
Wang Shouren actually knew that things were not that simple.
Once a collective industry grows large, all sorts of strange and monstrous things will emerge.
Putting aside other things, the people of Qin Family Village in this generation have split into several factions. One faction, like Qin's parents, stayed in the village and helped out whenever they could. Later on, they actually had nothing left to do, and even staying at home wasn't a problem. They received a fixed dividend every year. This faction had little say, but their dividends still came in.
As for how much dividend will be distributed, it depends on how much profit the company can make this year.
In the early stages, Qin Family Village operated on a simple model: how much money they earned that year, and how much they planned to set aside for development. This was the most basic model, announced by the village's most authoritative elder, Uncle San, and executed by Qin Huairu; no one dared to bluff.
Another point is that since profits have been increasing every year, there's no real need for a false alarm.
However, this also creates a problem: they don't have much say. This generation is fine because there are people to restrain them, but if the next generation is not restrained, and the company learns to falsify accounts, and there are no people of their own in the company, they will be relegated to the bottom, and may even not receive any money at all.
However, this is a problem that a long time has passed.
As for the second group, those who were determined to venture out and make their own way in the world, they had more jobs. Most of them were nominally affiliated with the "Qin Family Village" enterprise. For example, Qin Erge, Qin Jingru's second brother, opened a fried chicken shop in "Qin Family Village" and became the shop manager. In addition to receiving a fixed share of the profits from the village each year, all the money he earned from his business was his own.
Basically, these were all suggestions from Qin Family Village. By attaching themselves to Qin Family Village, these people could better obtain the first batch of information, allowing them to make arrangements in advance. People from Qin Family Village like this, who were willing to venture out, were generally quite wealthy, because this era was perfect for doing business.
Especially with sources like Qinjiacun, which have a particularly strong advantage in supplying goods, it's the icing on the cake.
People like them have a higher risk tolerance. Even if there are problems with the dividends of Qin Family Village one day, they won't be in trouble. After all, who knows what the situation will be like a hundred years from now? As long as they're not stupid, they will generally continue to invest with the times, and their assets are enough for them to live off for several generations.
This is also what Wang Shouren believed to be the most suitable way out for Qinjiacun.
Another example is the "outward deployment." Back in the 1980s, leaders in Shenzhen heard that the largest livestock farm in the country had opened in the city, so they wanted to bring people over to help with its construction. That's how the "outward deployment" came about. These people went to Shenzhen as part of the policy, and now, most of them have stayed in Shenzhen.
This group of people are mostly employees. If they stay with the company, the company will take care of their retirement.
In fact, the people of Qinjiacun are not lacking in money. Each household's shares, if sold, would be worth hundreds of millions of yuan. Every household receives at least a million yuan in dividends every year. Since 1990, these dividends have never decreased, and in some years, they have even reached tens of millions of yuan.
In Wang Shouren's view, this was sufficient.
Even if this were 1997, and even in 23 or 24 years from now, this dividend would still be incredibly generous. If it were distributed for a few more years, even someone completely clueless could simply deposit the money in the bank and never have to worry about anything in this life, or even the next.
Now, Qin Huairu inexplicably brought these things up to him, which puzzled him: "According to our profit-sharing mechanism, even if they squander money, they can't possibly squander all the money, right? What, who told you to say these things? Don't you have any judgment at all?"
This is not a questioning, but simply a lack of understanding.
I don't understand why Qin Huairu would suddenly bring up these things.
Putting everything else aside, in 1997 China, by wealth standards—let's be a little stingy—each of them would be among the top ten on the wealth list. And you're still not satisfied? That's outrageous!
"It's not like anyone came to say anything."
In fact, there were precedents. When Qin Family Village first started distributing dividends, many people had their eyes on the village. Things like enticing people to gamble were rampant, and they were incredibly generous. They'd say, "You can owe as much as you want, I won't charge you extra interest. No compounding interest, no that. You just pay back exactly what you owe."
If this happened to someone else, the compounding interest would force them to sell their house, land, and even their daughter.
But Qin Family Village is different. On one hand, those people can't afford to offend the people of Qin Family Village. On the other hand, the people of Qin Family Village are like fat sheep for sustainable development. If they're squeezed dry in one go, there's nothing left to do. Who knows what will happen to them later? If they're squeezed wave after wave, won't their shares become theirs?
They thought it was a good plan, but when the woman of the guy who'd been fooled got home and checked the numbers, something was wrong. She went straight to the village committee, saying they hadn't received their dividends. After all that commotion, they found out a group was stirring up trouble. This infuriated Uncle San, who started hitting people with his cane and declared that anyone who touched those things again would be expelled from the village, erased from the family register, and lose their shares.
It was only after such a series of forceful threats that the villagers began to behave themselves.
Although the group was arrested afterward, only Wang Shouren knew about it. Many villagers continued to gamble secretly, and no one else knew. It wasn't that no one knew, but the punishment was too severe. Even if the wives in their families found out, they wouldn't dare cause trouble. To joke about it meant being erased from the family genealogy—what difference was there between that and being executed?
No, and besides, the shares are all gone. What will happen to the children at home?
In Wang Shouren's view, his third uncle's decision was wrong, but he didn't say anything. Perhaps the old man knew it was wrong, but in reality, he simply couldn't bear to let him go. It's hard to say.
He took this matter very lightly.
Many companies, after they have grown, will inevitably face various problems.
Now, Qin Family Village's demand is that they want to keep control of the "Qin Family Village" company, but is this really possible?
