"Okay, go ahead and make the arrangements. Don't ask any more questions. Let's solve the food problem for them first."
"Oh, and get someone to stand on the second floor of the newspaper office to clock in for them. We'll follow the county's rules and deduct five cents for each late arrival."
Xie Xian looked puzzled: "Master, you haven't told them about this yet."
"Well, you go and notify and arrange it later."
"Also, I heard that some people are sleeping in the newspaper office. If they are not feeling well, give them paid sick leave, two days a month, so they can go home and get some rest!"
Xie Xian nodded: "Master, how about we also arrange for holidays during festivals in our county?"
Fang Zheng thought about it carefully and said, "Okay, let's not arrange this for now. We are really short of staff right now. The newspaper office can't operate during the holidays. Let's wait until we have more people in the future. We will double the wages on holidays and organize a dinner party."
"We also remember their birthdays, celebrate their birthdays, and give them gifts or something."
"Get them in good health before putting them to work."
"After getting up, don't rush to work. Go to the street to do some exercises and shout slogans to liven up your spirits."
"There is no order without rules! Before the newspaper company can make a profit, we have to let them work harder for a while."
"During this period of time, let's have someone run out to get some advertising. Once we can make money, everything will be fine!"
"What's wrong with young people suffering a little? If you are afraid of suffering, you will suffer for your whole life. If you are not afraid of suffering, you will suffer for half your life! Go!"
After Xie Xian left, Li Yuanzhao put away his notes and came over.
He looked at Fang Zhengyi with a troubled look on his face: "Old Fang, I don't think the bonus is too little, but one hundred taels is a bit too much! This is several years' wages."
"And if you want to give it, just give it. If you want to give it a hundred taels, just say a hundred taels. Why say one tael? Is it fun to tease people?"
Fang Zheng gave him a sidelong glance.
Not bad, you know how to save me money!
Then he said seriously: "Your Highness, this is the way of management."
“Give them one or two, they’ll be unhappy, and expectations will be lowered.”
"Wouldn't everyone be much happier if you told them to give them a hundred taels at this time?"
"It's good to just say you'll get 100 taels, but the effect is average!"
"You suppress expectations first, and then say you'll give out 100 taels. That means you'll spend the same amount of money and achieve better results."
"This is called expectation management! Do you understand?"
Li Yuanzhao scratched his head.
“I understand, but I don’t fully understand.”
Looking at his ignorant appearance, Fang Zhengyi couldn't help but think of his past.
When I just graduated and started my internship at a company, I was an intern trying hard to show myself.
Even when there is no work to do, they will actively go to their leaders to ask for work.
As a result, I have more and more work to do, but I still live a happy life every day because of the influence of chicken soup all year round.
If you work crazy hard, your boss will always notice it, and then you will reach the peak of your life!
But this state of affairs obviously cannot last long.
Half a year later, after spending a long time with old employees, he quickly evolved into the company's number one loser.
As long as the leader doesn't assign any work, I won't move a finger.
When the leader assigned a task, I first frantically refused, using various excuses to avoid difficulties, and then reluctantly agreed.
Then he procrastinated and put off submitting the complete work results until the last minute.
By doing this, not only did I not get much work done, but I performed better in the eyes of my leaders.
Not long after that, the company went bankrupt, and Fang Zhengyi also summed up a lot of experience.
But there is always a mountain higher than the other, and the salted fish will be cooked one day.
I changed to a new company. Thanks to my boss’s superb skills, the fancy pancakes he made were so delicious!
He couldn't help but take a bite, and ended up not being able to stop, which cost him his life.
.......
The so-called expectation management manages both leaders and grassroots members equally.
He has always treated Emperor Jing the same way.
The sweet potato yield per mu is 1,000 kilograms, that is a sure thing.
Hey! I said the yield per mu is 800 kilograms.
That's how it goes! Chairman Dajing will be so happy that he will marry his daughter to me one day?
Seeing that Li Yuanzhao was still looking at him with curiosity, Fang Zheng thought for a moment and said:
"Your Highness, let me give you an example."
"Let's talk about memorizing. You've been away for so long, and His Majesty will definitely ask you about your studies when you return to the palace, right?"
Li Yuanzhao nodded vigorously: "Yes, yes, yes! I am still worried about this!"
"It's not like I didn't read the book at all. I just memorized ten articles and planned to go back and practice them."
"Hiss...but only ten articles in a few months...it doesn't seem to be enough!"
"Old Fang, what good ideas do you have?"
Fang Zheng smiled and nodded: "When you meet His Majesty, you can say that you were busy with disaster relief and only memorized three articles."
"When His Majesty tests you, you must memorize eight passages! The remaining two passages will ensure your own safety."
"Think about it, when His Majesty heard that you only memorized three articles, his expectations of you would only be three articles."
"When His Majesty tests you, how will His Majesty feel if you recite eight passages in one breath?"
"He must be so happy. If he continues to test you, you can memorize the remaining two articles."
"If I test you again, just say you are tired! His Majesty will never pursue the matter."
"It's the first time, the second time, but not the third time!"
Li Yuanzhao's eyes lit up, his mouth wide open, and he said in surprise: "Yes! Why didn't I think of that!"
"What if Father doesn't test me on the last eight essays?"
"Then you should take the initiative to recite it. Observe His Majesty's expression and see if he wants to test you. If not, do not stop after reciting three articles. Keep reciting until the eighth one!"
Li Yuanzhao couldn't help clapping his hands and said happily, "Great! Great! Great! Old Fang, you are amazing!"
