Time passed day by day.
Wang Shouren has been getting busier and busier lately, with the end of the year fast approaching.
The steel rolling mill held another small meeting.
Meetings, especially large ones, are usually meaningless. Most of the time, these meetings are just for informing subordinates what to do. What you glean from the meeting is up to you.
Small meetings are the core of deciding what to do.
The main purpose of this meeting was to promote Wang Shouren's management model.
Wang Shouren was also pulled over by Factory Director Yang.
On the one hand, he developed the plan; on the other hand, the administrative level 21 played an important role. To put it bluntly, Wang Shouren can now be considered a clerk in the steel rolling mill's superior department.
The meeting was not as prestigious as people had imagined; instead, it turned into a grievance session.
"Factory manager, it's not that we don't want to do it, it's just that all the experienced workers are against it. Today I said that thing should be displayed there. Well, he forgot once, forgot twice, and forgot three times. Tell me, when I went to talk to him, he just smiled and said that he's getting old and forgetful. What am I supposed to do?"
"Yeah, Lao Yang, we've worked together for so many years, how could you not know what kind of people those guys down there are?"
Wang Shouren looked at these guys complaining and secretly clicked his tongue in amazement.
Is the truth really as they say?
The answer is actually no.
In this era, there are still many workers willing and able to endure hardship. Of course, there are also those who try to cheat and shirk their duties, but they only make up a minority. People in this era all have faith in their hearts; if they are capable, they will work hard.
The workshop foremen are complaining here, but in reality, they just want more good stuff.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Factory Director Yang slammed his hand on the table: "Quiet down!"
The factory manager's authority remained, and in that instant, the entire office fell silent.
He looked at Director Li and said, "Director Li, tell me, if we can produce more unplanned items this year, can we exchange them for unplanned supplies?"
“Sure, the more unplanned items you can bring out, the more unplanned supplies you can get in return,” Director Li said with a smile. “Including but not limited to meat, eggs, cloth, and all sorts of receipts.”
"You all heard that, right? I'm telling you, this kind of good thing only happens this year. Next year, the higher-ups will make statistics. If you still can't complete your tasks, then you'd better get out of here! Go wherever you're supposed to go."
The message has been made very clear: this year, the higher-ups won't hold it against you. This system will definitely be promoted. As for what the extra production capacity this year can be exchanged for, Director Li has already made a guarantee; it all depends on how well you can achieve it.
"Okay, okay, it's settled then! Hey you, Shouren, how about you come with me to Workshop One first, for once?"
"Hey, Lao Sun, you can't really be a grandson just because you're surnamed Sun! Shouren, we're old friends, come on, let's go to Workshop Three first."
The scene was as chaotic as a vegetable market. In the end, it was only after Director Yang slammed his fist on the table and kicked his legs that the situation was brought under control.
He turned to Wang Shouren and said, "Shouren, you'll have to work a little harder. Bring a few more people from the technical department with you. Try your best to get this done within half a month. Is that okay?"
"Half a month is a bit short."
"Okay, now, there are still about two months until the New Year. Try your best, within a month, how about it?"
"The problem lies with the workshop."
“We’ll take care of it!” Director Sun immediately said, “Don’t worry about those guys. If anyone dares to cause trouble, just come to me, and I’ll deal with them.”
"Okay, it's settled then."
In fact, this kind of transformation should take about half a month.
However, judging from Factory Director Yang's words, they still need to bring people along. This was actually Wang Shouren's own idea; this system needed to be passed down, and someone needed to understand its principles. Zhao Wuliang and his master Shen Yuanliang did understand it, but neither of them had much interest in managing such things. Using this method to increase production capacity was good, but it wasn't their cup of tea; they were more enthusiastic about modifying machinery.
Therefore, Wang Shouren also had to train this new technician.
The meeting just ended this morning.
In the afternoon, they came to the technical department to report for duty.
A man and a woman, dressed in blue overalls, with a hint of childishness on their faces.
In the technical department, Wang Shouren also got his own office, which was arranged by Director Yang.
"Let me introduce myself," Wang Shouren said after gesturing for the two to sit down.
"My name is Sun Liancheng. I graduated from **** College. I was born in 1947."
"My name is Li Li. I graduated from **** College. I was born in 1948."
Sun Liancheng was initially somewhat unconvinced, because he had also studied Wang Shouren's methods with his uncle. In fact, he felt there was nothing wrong with it; at most, Wang Shouren was just more meticulous and knew how to summarize these methods.
In fact, many factory managers were puzzled when they learned about the so-called 5S management regulations. They didn't think there was anything wrong with it, and some didn't even understand why the factory could improve so much just because of this regulation.
It wasn't until Wang Shouren actually started teaching them that they realized just how vast the gap was between them.
"Then I'll get straight to the point; our mission is quite urgent." Wang Shouren didn't waste any words and beckoned the two of them over.
"First, we need to clarify one concept: what is the goal?"
Upon hearing this, both Sun Liancheng and Li Li were somewhat stunned. Sun Liancheng tentatively said, "Increase production."
“Yes, that’s it.” Wang Shouren wrote the four words “increase production” in his notebook and put a box around them.
"So, what might be needed to increase production?"
"Increase the speed of the machinery? Increase the enthusiasm of the workers?" Li Li boldly replied.
“That’s right, very good. However, we need to summarize.” Wang Shouren drew two boxes under the words “increase production”, one labeled “technological innovation” and the other “improvement of labor efficiency”.
“The task of technological innovation is not ours to do for the time being. The only path we can take is to improve human efficiency.” Wang Shouren pointed to the second box: “So, what do you think is the most appropriate way to improve human efficiency?”
Sun Liancheng suddenly realized: "Isn't this the management system you proposed?"
