Chapter 1460: Teach the apprentice to beat the master?
Li Ye's words left Shang Bin unable to answer, but in front of so many people, he had to speak, so he could only avoid the main point, attack in a roundabout way, and try to resolve the embarrassment.
"The situation at Southwest Heavy Duty Truck is different from that at Light Truck. The company was established earlier and the local economy was poor, so it has been continuously accepting social labor for decades.
However, Southwest Heavy Duty Truck Group has assumed corresponding social responsibilities, but has not received more support and treatment, which has led to a drag on its operations.
I'm not afraid of being laughed at by Presidents Ma and Li, but Southwest Heavy Duty Truck is also facing the problem of insufficient production efficiency that needs to be urgently addressed. A large number of experienced and excellent employees are not being properly utilized, and their skills are useless."
“.”
Li Ye lowered his head to avoid letting others see the sneer on his face.
Shangbin's eloquence is absolutely excellent as he can describe the poor performance in such a refreshing and refined way. And from what Shangbin said, Southwest Heavy Duty Truck has already encountered a situation of "unemployment within the factory".
[Hmm? That's not right!]
Li Ye suddenly realized something.
People like Shang Bin would not easily talk nonsense. He must have his own purpose for saying this.
Sure enough, after Shang Bin had been talking for a while, he changed the subject and said, "This time, the higher-ups have conveyed the spirit of mutual assistance among enterprises. It can be said that they have come up with a solution for us. I am very pleased and grateful.
It just so happens that our two companies have merged into one, which makes internal employee mobility more convenient, and we can meet each other's needs. It's simply a perfect match!"
[I'm a perfect match, you're thinking pretty well~]
[No wonder Shang Bin was nitpicking Dong Shan's report and wouldn't let him pass it. It turns out he was laying an ambush here.]
Originally, Dong Shan's application was blocked, and Li Ye thought that Shang Bin was making up a story out of thin air, using a fabricated reason to snatch the credit that originally belonged to Dong Shan.
It turns out that Shang Bin's appetite is much bigger than Li Ye imagined.
It is a smart plan to transfer people from Southwest Heavy Duty Truck Group to the Light Truck Group and let the Light Truck Group solve the problem of your laid-off workers.
What’s more important is that when Li Ye asked Shang Bin just now “how many laid-off workers can Southwest Heavy Duty Truck solve?”, he said that distance is not a problem, that is something the higher-ups should consider, and the lower-ups just need to report the needs and numbers.
So at this moment, Li Ye couldn't use the excuse of "the distance was too far" as he was tricked by Shang Bin.
Shang Bin looked at Li Ye with pride, and then said to Ma Zhaoxian: "Boss Ma, do you think we can discuss it and take advantage of the opportunity given by the higher-ups to resolve the needs of both sides?
This way, we can complete the task assigned by the higher-ups, achieving the best of both worlds and keeping the benefits within the family."
Ma Zhaoxian nodded calmly, then said: "It is indeed the best of both worlds. Let's do this! The receiving unit first puts forward the requirements, and the transport unit then sends the personnel.
There are no plans to expand the main factory for the time being, so the Light Automobile Company is mainly focusing on the first branch. Please send someone to coordinate with Comrade Li Ye! He will be responsible for the situation of the first branch.
Ma Zhaoxian explained slowly and gave Li Ye a wink.
[Distance isn't a problem, but you can make demands! You have the initiative, so what are you afraid of?]
Shang Bin nodded slowly and said with a smile, "Okay, then, let this matter be jointly undertaken by the old man and Comrade Li Ye. Let's produce tangible results as soon as possible. This will be much more significant than submitting a flowery report to the higher-ups."
"Okay, okay."
Weng Keming agreed immediately, then smiled at Li Ye and said, "Mr. Li, when are you free, let's get together."
Li Ye smiled faintly and said, "I'm always available, but let me make it clear first. I can easily arrange for work and salary, but I can't arrange for a Beijing hukou."
Shang Bin waved his hand and said, "Hukou is not a problem. We can coordinate internally and it doesn't matter where the household registration is."
“.”
Perhaps Li Ye's "frankness" was beyond the expectations of Shang Bin and others. They thought that Li Ye, the most difficult thorn, had really changed his nature, so Weng Keming came to find Li Ye that afternoon, wanting to strike while the iron was hot and consolidate the "internal personnel flow" issue.
But when Li Ye handed Weng Keming a "recruitment notice", Weng Keming's face turned gloomy.
"We don't want any management personnel, only technicians, engineers, and front-line staff. And we need to interview them. Deputy General Manager Li, your requirements are too harsh!"
In fact, when Li Ye first met Shang Bin, he had already taken a liking to several engineers from Southwest Heavy Duty Truck Group. If they were willing to come, Li Ye would be very happy.
So Li Ye looked up at Weng Keming and said calmly, "Deputy General Manager Weng, the spirit conveyed by the superiors is that everyone should digest the redundant personnel of the units in trouble within their respective capabilities.
"We have positions that are in demand, which is the prerequisite for personnel mobility. You can't ask us to create another position just to accommodate others, right? Wouldn't that just add redundant personnel to the country?"
"That's true, but I heard that the number of employees in a branch factory expanded forty to fifty times in just a few years. Isn't there a shortage of management personnel? I know how rare it is to find an excellent management personnel, hehehe."
Weng Keming smiled, with a hint of sarcasm in his smile.
When the first branch was first planned and established, there were only more than 300 people, but now the number has reached nearly 20,000. At this rate of expansion, how can the management staff not rely on external inflow?
Southwest Heavy Duty Truck Group has nothing but experienced managers who are proficient in various management skills. Now one of its branches wants to expand its production line, but it doesn’t want a single manager?
So Li Ye is not trying to solve the problems for Southwest Heavy Duty Truck, he is clearly picking and choosing and trying to take time away from Southwest Heavy Duty Truck!
Technicians? Engineers? Frontline workers?
You wish.
“There’s really no shortage of that.”
Li Ye also smiled: "I knew the importance of management personnel when I was in school, so from the day the first branch was established, there was a complete talent reserve mechanism.
Every year, the person in charge of any department or workshop must recommend a candidate for training to be included in the management cadre reserve.
If the person in charge cannot do this, it either means he or she is incapable of talent development or is simply jealous of talented individuals.”
“.”
Weng Keming stared at Li Ye blankly, not knowing what to say for a long time, but he had already started cursing in his heart.
Jealous? Do you know what you're talking about? I finally climbed onto that chair, and yet I still have to choose a person to train every year? What's the point of training them? To replace me? Don't you know that teaching an apprentice to beat the master is like teaching an apprentice to beat the master?
But Weng Keming forgot that decades ago, it was a group of people who relied on this kind of active training mechanism to finally bring down those corrupt officials.
When a group is developing rapidly, it is not enough to train new people.
When those in power try every means to prevent newcomers from taking office, the change of power becomes an exchange of resources among certain exclusive groups of people, and this group will no longer be able to expand rapidly.
Therefore, the management personnel of a branch factory mainly rely on the training of new personnel, because Li Ye knows very well that if those experienced "outsiders" exceed a certain proportion, it will be like ink dropped into clear water, dyeing the entire water source black.
This is much more serious than teaching the apprentice to beat the master.
