Shen Yu smiled and said, "That's right. Signing a labor contract is a guarantee for you and for our company, as well as a constraint. It's best if everyone acts in accordance with the contract. All the employees in our factory have signed contracts."
Cheng Lin studied foreign languages, so of course she knew the importance of signing a contract. She just didn't expect that this privately owned Hong Kong-funded factory would be so professional.
She smiled at Shen Yu, "Okay, I'll sign."
Shen Yu asked Xiang Hong to bring in a blank labor contract, and then filled in the agreed salary and benefits, as well as resignation requirements, and the obligations and responsibilities of both parties were clearly written down.
After filling out the contract, Shen Yu handed it to Cheng Lin and reminded her, "Comrade Cheng Lin, please take a look at the contract first, and sign it only after you are sure there are no problems."
"Okay, thank you, Mr. Shen."
Cheng Lin took the contract and carefully read through it, clause by clause.
She found that the factory's contracts were also very standard, without any traps set for them as workers, and without any illegal requirements.
She felt, on the contrary, that the labor contract seemed to be more about protecting the interests of the employees.
After reading it, she signed her name and, at Shen Yu's prompting, pressed her fingerprint on the document.
The contract was made in duplicate, one copy for Cheng Lin and one copy for the company's records.
Shen Yu also signed her name, then had Xiang Hong take it to get stamped, and then returned it, giving a copy to Cheng Lin.
She stood up, shook hands with Cheng Lin, and said with a smile, "Comrade Cheng Lin, welcome to our company. We hope you enjoy your work here. If there's anything that needs improvement, please let us know, and we will make adjustments accordingly."
This was the first time Cheng Lin had met such a kind, approachable, and democratic leader, shattering her previous stereotype that leaders were all aloof and superior.
She replied respectfully, "Thank you, Chairman Shen. I will work hard. Thank you!"
Shen Yu then said to her, "Then come here at 8:30 tomorrow morning, and I will take you to my home and introduce you to some of my children."
Cheng Lin nodded. "Okay, I'll be there on time tomorrow."
Shen Yu then let Xiang Hong in to take Cheng Lin to complete the onboarding procedures and accommodation.
She then began reviewing the reports and materials submitted by various departments.
She first picked up the sales department's statistics, glanced at yesterday's sales data, and was immediately surprised and delighted.
Yesterday's single-day sales volume actually exceeded 500,000!
Don't be fooled by the seemingly small amount of money; this was 500,000 yuan in the 1980s, a time when drinks cost only a few cents or a dollar, and even the most expensive cola and coffee only cost two dollars a bottle.
Their ads have only been running for a few days and haven't reached the point of being brainwashing yet. In addition, their sales channels haven't been fully rolled out. The current sales volume is already quite good.
She believes that with the increasing number of sales channels and continued advertising efforts, the data will definitely continue to rise.
After reviewing the sales report, Shen Yu checked the warehouse inventory. Previously, because sales were not particularly good, the workshop had not been operating at full capacity.
Now that the ads are running, the inventory is being depleted very quickly, and it's estimated that it can only last for a week at most before production can't keep up.
Hopefully, production at the new factory can be more efficient, and the new employees can get up to speed quickly. With three shifts, it might be able to barely support sales volume.
It seems her plan to open a factory in Guangzhou will have to be brought forward.
It took Shen Yu about two hours to finish these official duties.
Shen Yu got a little tired from sitting, so she got up and drank a few cups of refreshing tea before heading over to the beverage factory to check on the production situation in the workshop.
She first went to the old factory of the beverage factory and found that the employees there were working hard and production was normal.
She then went to the new factory building next door and saw the newly promoted deputy factory director, Gu Zhongxin, arranging for the veteran employees to lead the new employees in their work.
Their factory pays high wages and offers good benefits, a fact that has already been widely known among the employees.
As soon as the job posting was put up a few days ago, a lot of people came to interview.
After the production and processing equipment arrived yesterday, and following debugging and trial production, formal production began today.
Half of the employees at the new factory were transferred from the old factory.
Expanding the production line naturally leads to another group of people needing promotions.
Shen Yu asked Gu Zhongxin to recommend the list of people to be promoted, and she would then approve it at her discretion.
The main thing is to see if the person recommending the candidate from CITIC Securities was fair and impartial. If he had no ulterior motives, she would naturally approve the list he recommended directly.
If someone who shouldn't be promoted submits a proposal, Shen Yu will naturally ask him for the reason.
Gu Zhongxin had just been promoted to deputy factory director by Shen Yu, so he certainly wouldn't dare to have any selfish motives.
The list of promotions he recommended was basically the same as the candidates Shen Yu had in mind, so Shen Yu approved them directly.
The promotion notice was immediately posted on the bulletin board.
The veteran employees who were promoted were also very happy. Sure enough, working in the newly opened factory, promotions were much faster.
In state-owned factories that have been operating for a long time, as long as the managers don't move up in their positions, the people below them have no hope of being promoted.
Some people may spend their entire lives as just a worker.
Just like the saying "36 yuan forever" in the early 1970s, it meant that after a worker became a regular employee in the factory, he might only receive a salary of 36 yuan until retirement.
These people had only been working at the Happiness Beverage Factory for less than a month, and many of them had already been promoted to workshop managers.
According to information released by the boss, if the advertising is effective and sales are booming, they may even open a factory in Guangzhou.
When the time comes, another group of the earliest employees to join the factory will definitely be promoted.
With this in mind, the employees felt particularly hopeful about the future and worked especially hard.
When Gu Zhongxin saw Shen Yu coming to inspect the factory, he quickly asked the senior employees to guide the new employees, while he jogged over to greet Shen Yu.
"Chairman Shen, you've arrived."
Shen Yu smiled at him and asked with concern, "Director Gu, how's production at the new factory? Are you managing to keep up?"
Gu Zhongxin immediately replied, "I can manage. I'm currently training new employees with the experienced staff to get them up to speed as quickly as possible."
Shen Yu looked at him with satisfaction. "Very good. There have been quite a few new employees recently. Keep a close eye on them and make sure they don't cause any problems."
"Our beverage factory has been advertising on TV and in newspapers recently, and sales are booming. We'll have to work hard to increase production during this period."
Gu Zhongxin replied firmly, "No problem! We guarantee to complete the mission!"
Shen Yu liked the brave and energetic spirit they had brought back from their military service. As long as a mission was assigned, they would rush forward with all their might without a single complaint.
