Volume 4: The World of Great Conflict Chapter 0582 Office Struggle
"General Manager Nan, this is the structural construction and recruitment application report of my planning department." Yang Kaiyan placed two folders on his desk as soon as she walked into Nan Yi's office.
"I'll look at it later. Please explain it briefly first."
"I want to expand the Planning Section into a Planning Department..."
"No, Chief Yang, you have to learn to adapt to the local customs. The Planning Department is the Planning Department. It doesn't matter whether the name is changed or not. Even if our Yaqing Company is changed to Yaqing Group, it is still just a small company that operates shopping malls and wholesale markets.
In addition, our Yaqing is not a simple company. Strictly speaking, it is a government-owned enterprise. The middle-level cadres sent by Haidian District have administrative ranks. Do you think it is appropriate for them to call you Minister Yang? "
"OK, my fault, I didn't realize this problem." Yang Kaiyan apologized, and then said: "I want to expand the planning department. In the future, the planning department will not only be responsible for the formulation of Yaqing's development strategy, but also for brand strategy, marketing management, advertising strategy, market management, etc.
The Planning Department is responsible for marketing research planning, marketing planning, market positioning planning, corporate image planning, product planning, brand planning, price planning, marketing channel planning, promotion planning, advertising planning, integrated marketing communication planning, service planning, and relationship marketing planning.
"Wait a moment, change a word." Nan Yi interrupted Yang Kaiyan and said, "Responsible for the formulation of Yaqing's development strategy, the word 'formulate' can be changed to 'offer advice' or 'suggest' or 'participate'. Please continue."
After Nan Yi finished speaking, he continued to do two things at once, his eyes on the document and his ears perked up to listen to what Yang Kaiyan continued to say.
Yang Kaiyan was stunned for a moment, and continued: "The planning department needs to increase its staff. I need to add a deputy section chief; 6 planning specialists, including advertising clerks, promotion clerks, information clerks, brand planners, etc.; and 2 interns or OAs."
“The Planning Department will not establish a deputy section chief position. You can add a correspondent for yourself. If you want this position to play the role of a secretary, you can make up the difference in salary with your own money, just like me and Leng Yan.
The correspondent’s salary is 120 yuan per month according to the company’s salary standards.
Please do not use the term "specialist" again, whether it is spoken or in documents; as for the position of OA office assistant, please call it clerk, its salary is the same as other advertising clerks and sales clerks.
Therefore, you need to work with the people in the finance department to design a salary and benefits structure, and pay the extra work to the real clerks under your jurisdiction in the name of other things other than salary.
Equal pay for equal work is our basic principle at Yaqing, Chief Yang, please don’t think about undermining it.”
"Is it Yaqing's principle, or..."
"Chief Yang, be careful with your words ."
"Okay." Yang Kaiyan spread her hands and said.
"Chief Yang, you have a very internationalized mindset, and most of your work experience was gained on Wall Street. You should be a big believer in corporate systems, right?"
"Yes, I think whether a company can operate well has a lot to do with its corporate system. A good company must have a good corporate system."
"Your words are correct in other places, but not in a company like Yaqing. Chief Yang, let me give you four words: 'harmony with the world'. You can continue to maintain your fast pace, but you must allow your colleagues to slow down, allow their thinking to become rigid, and allow them to be mediocre.
On Wall Street, every one of your colleagues is an elite, and you are used to working with elites; now that you come to Yaqing, you have to start getting used to another working mode.
I gave you four words to give you a chance to thank me. So far, I have no appointments with anyone at noon. "
"Sorry, I have an appointment." Yang Kaiyan said cunningly and deliberately.
"Yeah, next time I send you a letter, I'll first confirm whether you have time to treat me to a meal. Now, Out!"
"General Manager Nan, you should say 'Please' to a lady."
Nan Yi looked up at Yang Kaiyan's face and said, "Get out, please!"
"Hahaha, General Manager Nan, you have a very strong revengeful mentality." Yang Kaiyan left Nan Yi's office with a smile.
"The fake foreign devils have the ability, but they are too arrogant and don't understand the national conditions."
Nan Yi muttered and continued to look at the documents.
…
At noon, Nan Yi still had lunch at Aguo Restaurant.
Nan Yi arrived late, after dinner time. There were no other customers in the restaurant. Nan Yi was eating while Lame Man was sitting beside him smoking.
"Would you like to make a package?"
"What is a meal package?"
"Soon there will be hundreds of people coming to Yaqing Company for dinner. In the future...let's not talk about the future, just now, can you handle these hundreds of meals?
Let me make it clear first, you may not be able to work for a long time. No matter how delicious the food is, you will get tired of it if you eat it every day. Once most people are tired of it, they will change to another company. Unless you can change the taste frequently to satisfy everyone. "
"How?" asked the lame man.
"I'll give you 60 cents per serving, one meat dish and two vegetable dishes, six days a week, and some fruit every other day, just enough for everyone to get, like an orange. Our company will provide two sets of tableware per person, and you'll be responsible for recycling and cleaning the tableware.
The only promise I can make to you is that as long as the quality of your meals is good, you can work for at least half a year. Whether you can work longer depends on yourself. "
"You're kidding me. I need one meat, two vegetables and some fruit. 60 cents is not enough to buy vegetables and rice." The lame man said with his neck stiff.
Nan Yi pointed at the vegetable bowl and said, "One dish only needs one-fifth of this. It doesn't require you to use meat. There are delicious and cheap meat dishes. Chicken feet, chicken gizzards, pig liver, duck intestines, which one is not cheap?
If you use your brain more, you will figure it out. As long as you ensure that the food is delicious and clean, I don’t expect you to be served with pork elbows every day. Don’t think crookedly, or I will break your other leg too.”
"Fuck, I'm disabled, you bully me, do you have the nerve to do that?"
"Who wanted to practice alone with me a few days ago? Now you know that you are disabled?" Nan Yi said with a smile.
"Half a year?"
As for the matter of solo training, Lame Man avoided talking about it and changed the subject to business.
"At least half a year."
The lame man slammed the table and said, "I'll do this business, buddy."
"Okay, then you can come to my place tomorrow morning and look for a cashier named He in the Finance Department. She's a woman, so you can count the money yourself."
"Can you afford the vanishing cream?"
"Snow Cream, why don't you talk about clam oil? You should just pick up two kilograms of fruit, choose the expensive ones. From now on, you should pay the bill with her. If she does something bad, just go and cry." Nan Yi spat.
"Aren't you the manager? You can't command her?"
Nan Yi teased, "Why should I be in charge?"
"Okay, just consider it as feeding the dog today's meal. You don't have to pay." The lame man rolled his eyes and said with determination.
"You poor bastard, if you don't say a few nice words, I'll block you when you pay the bill."
In the end, Nan Yi paid the money and left.
He doesn't want to be a dog, at least not for the sake of eating meat and vegetables.
From setting up a breakfast stall with Wu Renpin, all the way to Longmenzhen, Nan Yi has worked in the catering industry for many years. He has also personally experienced the front line and knows every aspect of it.
He calculated that as long as Lame could be more smart and work harder on the channels for purchasing vegetables, it would not be difficult for him to make half of the profit from Yaqing's meals; if the profit was higher, the quality of the food would be worrying, and Nan Yi would never agree to it.
He is not that despicable even though he gets complained about for providing work meals and gets scolded for paying for them.
Nan Yi has been working in the company for a long time, and others have also figured out his work habits. They all know that they can contact him at any time for important matters. It is best to come to him for reimbursement signatures on Friday afternoon. If it is not a big deal, don't go into his office on Saturday.
He Ping went to buy cigarettes in the morning and came back in the afternoon.
"Manager Nan, now that we have bought the cigarettes, where should we put them?"
"Cashier He, Yaqing doesn't have a position of office director yet, so you can take on the duties of this position first. You can't take double the salary, but I can give you a little more subsidy."
He Ping asked: "When will our office director be in place?"
"As long as you, Cashier He, are able to handle the job, this position will remain vacant indefinitely." Nan Yi said with a slight smile.
A flash of joy flashed across He Ping's face. "Then where should I put the cigarettes I bought?"
"It's yours to keep. Take care of it. Bring me two packs of Zhonghua and four packs of Marlboro later."
"Okay, I'll get it right away."
He Ping stood up excitedly and was about to go out.
"Wait, get ready in a moment. At 3:20, you will go to Wangfujing Department Store with me. Remember to withdraw 1,000 yuan from your account."
"You need to buy something else?"
"right."
"OK."
He Ping loves shopping the most, even if the things she buys are not hers.
Her steps were brisk, and every step seemed to be stepping on several bright smiling faces.
He Ping had just brought over the cigarettes when Leng Yan, who was exhausted from traveling, also came to Nan Yi's office. Without any formalities, they started talking about work directly.
"I went to the Shanghai Television Factory, Radio Factory No. 18, and Radio Factory No. 4, and inspected the three brands of Venus, Feiyue, and Kaige respectively. The product quality is similar, but Kaige's service concept is very advanced. Radio Factory No. 4 not only established an after-sales maintenance department in Shanghai, but also provided door-to-door maintenance and replacement services."
"So, how did the talk go?"
"Radio Factory No. 4 means that if we in Asia can provide them with a good counter, they are willing to cooperate with us to provide thoughtful after-sales service and give us 6‰ loss compensation." Leng Yan said.
"What about the rebate?"
"No, but we can sign a tiered contract and extend the payment period to one year. As long as we pay on time, they won't rush us to pay."
"Are Factory 18 and Factory 4 planning to merge?"
"I've heard some rumors, but no action has been taken yet."
"Oh, ask your connections whether the merger will go through and who will merge with whom." Nan Yi said after thinking for a while.
"Got it. I'll fly to Hangzhou the day after tomorrow afternoon and go to Mudan tomorrow."
"Peony... its market share is almost half now. Don't hold your hopes too high. Huangshan, Huanghe, Qingsong, Furi, Panda, Hongmei, Taishan, Kunlun, Shaofeng, these brands are worth visiting. By the way, when you go to Hangzhou, don't forget to go to Chengfeng. Chengfeng's electric fans are good. Jinling's Bee brand is also OK."
"I can't forget it. I have recorded all the domestic manufacturers of electrical appliances. I will visit them all and not miss any of them." Leng Yan said, frowning, "Business trips are so tiring!"
"Then I'll tell you some news to cheer you up. Two days ago, I transferred 160,000 US dollars into your account."
Leng Yan was surprised and asked, "Do I also have a share of Yang Kaiyan's money?"
"Of course, as long as you participate, I will count you as a share. If you are tired, go back and rest. If you want to stay in a hotel, you can continue to stay. If you want to live in a courtyard house, go find Liu Zhen and choose one to live in."
"Just living here?" Leng Yan giggled.
"It's useless to give it to you. You don't even realize the value of a courtyard house. If I get the chance, I'll buy you a building."
“Are you so optimistic about the future development of real estate?”
"I don't have time to teach you now. We can talk about it later. You can go now. I'm going out soon."
"No, just take me back."
Nan Yi said: "It's not convenient, Cashier He, please come with me."
"Aren't you afraid of getting so close to her?"
"The woman who can cause me trouble has not been born yet. I know it myself."
"Okay, I'm really tired. I'll go back, take a hot bath and go to sleep." Leng Yan stretched and walked out of Nan Yi's office.
Knock knock knock!
Nan Yi's office was quiet for less than ten minutes before the door was knocked again.
"Come in."
"General Manager Nan, you are here."
As soon as the door opened, a smiling face wearing a pair of glasses jumped in.
"Assistant Jiang, what's up?"
The person who came was Lin Deqing's assistant Jiang Yuanchao, another name that had a very retro feel to it, and one didn't have to guess his age by looking at his face.
"Chairman Lin would like to invite you over."
"Okay, I'll be there right away. Assistant Jiang, please tell He Ping from the Finance Department to change the time to four o'clock."
"Okay, I'll go now."
Nan Yi signed his name on the document he had read, closed the folder and placed it in the pile of documents on the corner of the desk.
Ten seconds later, he appeared in Lin Deqing's office.
"Chairman Lin, you're looking for me?"
Lin Deqing looked at Nan Yi's face and said in a gentle voice, "Yes, Xiao Nan, I have something to discuss with you."
Click!
"The name has changed. Is this sending a signal? Is it trying to curry favor? Or is it clarifying the relationship between superiors and subordinates?"
Nan Yi's mind raced as he said, "Director Lin, will what you are going to say take a long time? I have already made an appointment with He Ping to go shopping at the department store at four o'clock, and the time has already been postponed once."
Lin Deqing looked at his watch and said, "It won't take long. There's still enough time. This is what I found out today when I was thinking about the structure of our Yaqing department. It seems that we don't have a purchasing department yet. What do you think, Xiaonan?"
The Purchasing Department is of utmost importance. If the people are not competent, there will be big trouble in the future.
Lin Deqing brought this up now, and it was obvious that he was determined to get the position of head of the purchasing department.
Nan Yi deliberately looked at his watch and took this opportunity to organize his words. "Director Lin, this is it. Regarding the purchasing department, I have some immature ideas, which I may not be able to finish in a short time. How about this, I will come to your office as soon as I get to work tomorrow to report to you in detail?"
"Okay, we'll discuss it tomorrow."
Lin Deqing's face remained calm.
"Director Lin, I'll go out first."
"good……"
"He is indeed one of the best people. He is not easy to deal with. He usually keeps quiet but gets straight to the point when he strikes."
Nan Yi's mind raced. He walked back to his office and called Chu Fan.
Then he went to the Finance Department, called He Ping, and they went out together.
