Chapter 310 What is the core of the enterprise
Li Ye arrived at his own yard in Zhongguancun and saw Jiang Hong and several fellow villagers eating hot pot.
Each of these old men has a high salary, and they don't have a mother or a wife to look after them, so they spend money on food much more freely than Yang Yumin's family.
"Xiao Ye, have you eaten? Sit down quickly."
"Xiaoyong, go get another pair of chopsticks and a wine cup."
Jiang Hong saw Li Ye come in and pulled him to sit down and have a drink.
Li Ye sat down first, then smiled and refused: "I've eaten Uncle Hong, I came here to tell you something. There is a yard over there in the zoo. Can you find someone to build a bathroom and toilet for us?"
"Yes, since some people are free recently, I will go over and take a look tomorrow, and then start preparing the ingredients. It will be done in three to five days."
Li Ye asked in surprise: "Some people are free? Aren't you all working?"
Jiang Hong said: "The market was not peaceful some time ago, so some people came from my hometown, but now the crackdown is severe, who dares to cause trouble, so we don't need so many people,
I originally wanted to let some of them go home, but Jin Peng refused to let them go, saying that we might not have enough manpower in the future! I don’t know if this is true or not.”
"We really don't have enough staff," Li Ye said, "We may open a branch in Tianjin before and after the New Year, and then we old employees will have to go there to train the new people!"
"Then I'm relieved," Jiang Hong nodded and said, "We are all honest people. We always feel uncomfortable eating free meals. If you have any relatives or friends who want to renovate the bathroom and toilet, why not let them do it together now."
"It's freezing cold, there's no need to bother."
Li Ye said to Jiang Hong: "But I think bathroom renovation is also a business. If there are people in my hometown who are willing to do this next year, you can ask them to form a renovation team."
"Will this work?" Jiang Hong frowned and said, "Some time ago, some regulations were issued to combat economic crimes. Many people in my hometown are in trouble! Old Xu and Old Zhang's families both received telegrams, worried and asking them to go back."
Li Ye thought for a moment and said, "I'll ask someone to ask for you. Anyway, there's no rush this year, but I don't think renovation work will be affected."
There was indeed a campaign to combat economic crimes in 1983. Shuo Ye, a novelist, took 6,000 yuan from the army to buy a color TV and tried to make extra money by selling electrical appliances. He was arrested as a result.
However, the activities that are being cracked down on are all unlicensed and undocumented speculative activities, while hard labor jobs are relatively tolerant.
Li Ye stood up to say goodbye, but when he reached the door, he said to Jiang Hong: "No. 18, East Sixth Hutong in front is the house of one of my classmates. You can tidy up his bathroom and toilet! Let Jin Peng pay from my personal account."
"Okay, I'll lend a hand."
Jiang Hong agreed readily.
. . . . . . .
Li Ye drove back to Zaojun Temple, handed the car keys to his sister Li Yue, and then said, "I met Yang Yujiao today."
Li Yue was obviously startled, then calmly said, "It's okay if we meet! Why, did you go to his house with your classmate today?"
"No, I went to Zhongguancun to see Uncle Hong today. Yang Yujiao knew this car."
Li Ye frankly recounted what happened today, and then asked, "But Yang Yumin's mother said a lot of confusing things to me, saying that she would never drag Yang Yumin down, etc. I didn't quite understand what she said. Do you know what's going on?"
Li Yue stared at Li Ye for more than ten seconds, as if he wanted to see through Li Ye's heart.
But Li Yue had only worked in the company for a few years, while Li Ye was several decades older than her and much more experienced.
Finally, Li Yue whispered: "Tell me about it at that time. I asked Yang Yumin what happened. Yang Yumin didn't say anything, so I got Yang Yujiao to tell me that Yang Yumin was adopted by his mother."
Li Ye was surprised.
He couldn't imagine that Yang Yumin, who seemed smart and cheerful, had such a life experience.
Li Ye thought for a moment and said, "Don't ask Yang Yumin anymore. Just pretend you don't know about this."
Li Yue rolled her eyes and said disdainfully: "Do you think I'm stupid? Do I need you to tell me?"
Li Ye exhaled angrily and said, "When the Xiushui Street Market opens in a few days, ask Yang Yumin to rent a storefront. His knife-cut noodles are pretty good."
Li Yue pondered for a moment and said with some worry: "The rent of Xiushui Street is expensive. Can I make money by selling knife-cut noodles?"
Li Ye said disdainfully: "What do you know? If you choose the right place, you can make money even by selling dirt and rocks."
“.”
"I don't know anything, but I know how to beat you up!"
"Rub, rub, rub~"
Li Ye was quick-witted and quick-handed and escaped.
. . . . . . .
Late December, Changping.
There were at least a hundred people standing in the finished product workshop of Changbei Machinery Factory, but almost no human voices could be heard.
In the entire workshop, the only sound was the sound of sewing machines, vibrating and echoing like the wings of a bee.
Ten sewing machines were lined up in a row in the workshop and had been humming for an hour.
Ten seamstresses continuously carried out acceptance tests using fabrics of various materials and thicknesses under the watchful eyes of the public.
The power supply of these ten sewing machines is even connected to an electric meter to test the power consumption data.
Among the crowd watching were investors from Hong Kong Island, personnel from relevant departments of Changping, the representative of Fenghua Clothing, Manager Jin Peng, as well as Li Ye, Li Dayong and Pei Wenhui who were standing in the distance watching the excitement.
"Brother, that Hong Kong Island investment director seems a bit arrogant! He's obviously just an employee, but he seems to be more arrogant than Mr. Pei."
Li Dayong felt somewhat displeased when looking at Hu Shangmin, the investment director of Seris Company, who was in the "C position".
He felt that most of the credit for the development and trial production of the new sewing machine belonged to his teachers Cao Zhisheng, Tang Mingtai and Pei Wenhui.
But since Hu Shangmin took over, Pei Wenhui has not been in charge of the matter, and the research team led by Cao Zhisheng can't even squeeze into the first row.
It seems that all the glory falls on "irrelevant" people.
But Li Ye said calmly: "It's right to be arrogant. If he wasn't arrogant, he might not be able to get a good job!"
Investing in enterprises in the mainland is a science. People like Li Dayong and Pei Wenhui can only deal with science and engineering men like Cao Zhisheng. If they really have to deal with people from relevant departments, it will be impossible to negotiate on an equal footing.
Li Ye had just observed Hu Shangmin, who was sent to the mainland by Pei Wencong to be in charge of mainland investment projects, and felt that he had adapted to this job.
He should be arrogant when he should be arrogant, and be humble when he should be humble. He treats different people with different attitudes and has become very comfortable with this.
Li Dayong said angrily: "Brother, I know all this, but my teachers are in charge of technical development.
Tang Mingtai even gave up his job at the Third Machinery Factory to come and work for us as a technical manager, but now he doesn't even have a chance to show his face. How can he still be popular in the company in the future?"
"If we are still destined to suffer the same fate as before, then aren't we harming others?"
In fact, Li Dayong is not stupid, he just feels sorry for his teacher and Tang Mingtai.
But children who have not experienced the beatings of society will never understand the helplessness and class rules there.
Pei Wenhui pulled Li Dayong's arm and whispered, "Don't worry too much. Whether the food is popular or not is up to us. Hu Shangmin is just being arrogant on the surface.
But you can’t tell these teachers, or you’ll cause trouble for Mr. Li, who is the major shareholder.”
Pei Wenhui grew up in Hong Kong Island and thinks about things differently from Li Dayong. She and Li Dayong are shareholders, and making money is what she should consider. Whether other people can make a living depends more on themselves.
As long as Cao Zhisheng, Tang Mingtai and others continue to update their technology, the company will never let them suffer any loss. However, once the technical manager puts the cart before the horse and relies on his connections to build his own faction, it will go against Li Ye's original intention.
It was two full hours later that the ten seamstresses finally stopped their work.
After a brief exchange, warm applause suddenly broke out in the workshop.
Obviously, this first batch of improved sewing machines fully met the requirements for use.
The workers of the machinery factory who were standing outside with Li Ye and others also excitedly followed suit and applauded.
Workers nowadays do not have the concept of "if I am not welcome here, I will find another place to stay". Once you enter a factory, you will be its employee for your whole life. If the factory does not perform well and cannot pay out bonuses, it is like your mother is sick. It is really worrying.
Now, we have new products and foreign investors have come. The future is about to be prosperous. Which worker would not be happy?
Li Ye pulled Li Dayong and whispered, "We should go now. The rest is up to Jin Peng and Hu Shangmin."
Li Ye and Li Dayong came today to deal with unexpected situations, but now the performance of the sewing machine has met the standards and the relevant departments seem to attach great importance to it, so the remaining matters do not require the three "shareholders" to make on-site decisions.
He quietly left the workshop, got in the car and drove out of the Changbei Machinery Factory.
In the evening, Jin Peng sent back the news.
In principle, there is no problem with this joint venture, and the formalities will most likely be completed before the Spring Festival. However, it is impossible for Hong Kong Island to hold more than 50% of the shares, and the control of the company will still be in the hands of Changbei Machinery Factory.
Li Dayong was a little worried because he owed Li Ye "millions of pounds". He spent such a huge sum of money, but Director Wang still had the final say. He felt that he was at a great loss.
But Li Ye said: "Dayong! You must remember that you must follow the trend in everything you do.
Given our current situation, it will certainly be difficult to gain apparent control, but we will not be fools if we cannot gain control of the core of the company."
Li Dayong thought for a moment and asked, "Brother, the core control you are talking about is technology?"
The joint venture requirement that Li Ye put forward this time was to have Seris re-register a subsidiary, and then the new company would form a joint venture with Changbei Machinery Factory.
The technical team led by Tang Mingtai belongs to the new Hong Kong Island Company, and all research technologies are kept confidential from the Changbei Machinery Factory.
“And there are channels, sales channels.”
Li Ye said: "We have established our own sales channels since two years ago. Although we sell clothing, we have trained hundreds of salesmen.
So the sales department and the technical department are what we need, and we don’t demand nominal control.”
Li Dayong was stunned for a long while before he said, "Brother, isn't this the routine of Fenghua Clothing entering the mall? Let them earn a little money while we earn the rest?"
"Not entirely," Li Ye said, "We don't have a foundation right now, so we'll go public through a backdoor listing. Once we've trained a technical team and have a handle on the market, it won't work if you want to stop us from having the final say."
