On January 20, both Nan Yi's personal and Nan's operations on WTI oil futures came to an end, but the Nan's people were not idle. Ikeda Karikyo first flew to the Ikeda Trainee Dispatch Branch in Dubai to inquire about the business in the Middle East, and then flew to Saudi Arabia to meet with the Kuwaiti royal family, to make an appointment there first and leave a good impression.
As soon as the war was over, Kuwait had to rebuild, build refineries, and construct buildings, but Ikeda Company had no intention of doing any of these things. The only thing it cared about was exporting labor.
After flying to Saudi Arabia, Ikeda Karikyo flew to Southeast Asia and visited several recruitment locations to arrange work.
With the rise of Huake Economics and Trade, the state's labor export has become increasingly prosperous. According to the Cao School's labor theory, the treatment given to exported workers by Ikeda's trainee dispatch is too generous, which is not conducive to the healthy development of partners in the same industry. Therefore, Ikeda's business lines in China have begun to shrink, and the timetable for withdrawing from China will be decided based on actual conditions.
This is good news for Karikyo Ikeda, as it means that the dispatch of Ikeda trainees has shed the hypocritical halo of support and can fully reveal the desire for profit that has been suppressed deep in the darkness.
The Dubai dispatch model had been tried before - technical workers were given a 37% or 46% score depending on their skill level, ordinary workers were given a 64% score, and those with identity problems, Ikeda spent a lot of money to resolve the 82% and 73% scores; now Ikeda Karikyo wants to fully implement the Dubai model in the dispatch of Ikeda trainees, fine-tune the business model, and also replace a group of competitors.
In the future, Ikeda's competitors in dispatching trainees should be those human traffickers who help people smuggle and become illegal immigrants, and then serve as super-cheap labor for a period of time. The only difference is that Ikeda can open his door and do business openly, but those human traffickers cannot.
A colorful black trainee management company will also be established under Ikeda Trainee Dispatch. Its internal code name is "Chu Nu". It is positioned to provide trainee management services to Ikeda Trainee Dispatch.
The company will also set up two slave-pulling teams. One is called "According to the Law", which is composed of lawyers and is responsible for resolving disputes between and exporting workers through legal means; the other is called "Enforcement", which is responsible for finding workers who disappeared before fulfilling their contracts and providing them with popular education on the spirit of contract.
At the end of January, Ikeda Trainee Dispatch received a large order for 1,500 workers in the United Arab Emirates, and recruitment work began in full swing in many regions in Southeast Asia.
Wu Zhihao was one of the earliest Ikeda trainees to be sent out. When he was sent out before, he was with a group of Southeast Asians and had more contact with them. He consciously or unconsciously learned some Southeast Asian languages, but they were very mixed, with languages ​​of various countries intertwined. He was definitely not qualified to be a translator, but he had no problem communicating with Southeast Asians.
Because of his language skills, he was transformed from a dispatched worker into a full-time employee of the company and was sent to Southeast Asia to be responsible for recruiting workers.
Magway Province.
Wu Zhihao is communicating with a job applicant.
"Mao Xianglin, can you read?"
“I can understand a little bit.”
Upon hearing that Mao Xianglin could read, Wu Zhihao picked up two pieces of paper and handed them to Mao Xianglin, "You are applying for an outdoor high-altitude work position. One of these two pieces of paper is the salary description, which states the remuneration for the position, our company's handling fee, the taxes you have to pay, etc. The red bold words on the bottom line are the monthly salary you can get;
The other sheet shows the compensation standards. There are different compensation standards for death, serious injury, and minor injury. If you want to join the company, you need to designate a beneficiary. In the event of an accident, we will hand over the compensation to the beneficiary you designate. "
Mao Xianglin took the two pieces of paper and looked at the salary description first. He frowned at first. There were so many deductions, a little here and a little there, and the handling fee was ridiculously high. But when he saw the bottom line, his frown relaxed again. He was very satisfied with the number he got.
When he linked the final number to the deductions, he couldn't help but grumble, "Just tell me how much I can get in a month. Why list the deductions? It ruins my mood."
After reading the salary description, Mao Xianglin looked at the compensation standard. He was very satisfied. He didn't expect that his life was worth so much. After putting the two pieces of paper together, he said to Wu Zhihao, "Sir, I want to join the company."
"Mao Xianglin, you have to think carefully. Outdoor high-altitude work is very dangerous, especially in the UAE. The daytime temperature in summer can exceed 40 degrees Celsius. It is easy to get heatstroke or even heat stroke under the direct sunlight at high altitude."
"Sir, I have thought it over carefully and I want to join the company." Mao Xianglin said affirmatively.
"OK, then take another look at the contract template." Wu Zhihao responded and handed a contract template to Mao Xianglin, "You can take it back and ask someone more educated to take a look. After you have read it, if you still insist on joining the company, please bring your identity documents and a guarantor to sign the contract tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."
"Who can be the guarantor?" Mao Xianglin asked.
"For people with a certain reputation or assets, the guarantor is also a witness, and he also needs to sign the contract."
Mao Xianglin looked embarrassed, "Can't sign the contract without a guarantor?"
"You can sign it, but you will only get half of your salary for six consecutive months after you join the company. Three months' salary will be paid as a deposit after your contract expires." Wu Zhihao said, and handed Mao Xianglin another contract, "This is a sample contract without a guarantor. Take a copy back with you as well."
"Okay, sir, I'll take it back and have someone take a look at it."
"OK, next."
Nan Yi still adheres to the principle of not cheating its own people, even for exported laborers. The head fee is earned in the open, and it is how much it should be. Everything that should be explained before signing the contract will be made clear. It is a personal decision whether to sign or not. There will be no inducement or coercion. Once the contract is signed, it must be done according to the contract. Whoever treats him as a fool, the Slave Pushers Squad will teach him a lesson.
Although Ikeda's trainee dispatch takes a lot of commission, in fact, when negotiating with external parties, the contract is signed with a remuneration price higher than the normal level in the industry. For the clients of Ikeda's trainee dispatch, although they have to pay more, they have less trouble. They only need to pay the money, and Ikeda's trainee dispatch will take care of all other trivial matters. It can be said that Ikeda earns the trivial "service fees".
Recruiting people costs money and requires manpower. A series of things such as overseas procedures, air tickets, dispatch, settlement, disputes, work injuries, etc. all require expenditures, which will consume 60% of the average revenue. The profit margin that can be retained in the end is actually not high.
Ikeda trainee dispatch earns quantitative profits. One staff member can be responsible for 50 or 150 workers without exceeding his or her labor intensity. Theoretically, the more workers there are, the lower the relative cost, the higher the profit margin, and the greater the total profit.
…
The first physical examination report of the employees of Nan's companies in 1991 came out. Nan Yi looked at the comparison data table of the past three years on the computer, and he couldn't help frowning. Overall, the health of the employees has declined sharply, and 36% of them have shown "chronic fatigue syndrome", which is sub-health.
Improving the physical fitness of employees without reducing work efficiency and work intensity became a serious problem that Nan had to solve in 1991.
The decline in the physical fitness of employees will not only reduce Nan’s operating efficiency, but will also be a huge test for the fund pool of Nan’s Employees’ Committee. This problem must be resolved.
Nan Yi participated in a seminar in the Information and Strategy Committee attended by the accounting team, the heart control team, the Nanshi Employee Committee, and medical insurance related personnel. At the meeting, a series of improvement measures were formulated after discussion:
Nan's own holiday and convalescent estates will be established in selected areas. At the same time, the plan of increasing paid vacations and convalescent tourism vacations will be implemented in selected enterprises as a pilot. If the results are good, the plan will be promoted throughout Nan's entirety. Starting this year, Nan's affiliated enterprises will regularly hold sports competitions, and the competition events will be decided freely by each enterprise.
After the meeting, Nan Yi rushed back to Coconut City and attended the year-end parties of Dream Town, Green Core Development, and Yiwan International. He also distributed the year-end bonus of Yiwan International and then rushed to Shanghai.
After the Shanghai Stock Exchange was established and the Shanghai Stock Exchange became a real stock exchange, Liu Zhen's original position as an inspector of the trust and investment company was abolished. He was replaced by an inspector of the Shanghai Stock Exchange. It was not a formal position and there was no salary or too many obligations. He just attended the meetings of the Shanghai Stock Exchange and occasionally received some benefits such as eggs and pork belly.
To be honest, even after looking at the job description, Nan Yi didn't understand what an inspector did. It was just that Liu Zhen had become busier than before and had no time to spare to return to Beijing for the New Year.
After arriving in Shanghai, Nan Yi first played with his son for two days. Then, at noon when the sun was shining brightly, he sat in the yard and read the "Newspaper" and the sample issue of the "Shanghai Stock Exchange Special Issue" that Liu Zhen had brought back for him. It was just an internally printed sample and the typesetting format had not been finalized. It was not known how long he would have to wait for the trial issue.
At that time, apart from going to the Jinsheng, Shenyin and Haitong exchanges, if you wanted to know information about the Shanghai stock market, you could only go through the closing quotes of the "Old Eight Stocks" broadcast on time by the Shanghai Radio Station at 6 o'clock every night, or read the "News". Except for this newspaper, there was no news about the Shanghai stock market in other newspapers.
The stock market was still in the pilot stage, and there was a heated debate in society about whether the opening of the stock market was capitalist or socialist. Some people believed that the stock market was a product of capitalist society.
Liu Zhen also told Nan Yi a very interesting story. She said that the Youth League Secretary of a certain factory was dismissed from his post because he was a stock investor. After this incident, people in some units started to trade stocks secretly, which was even more despicable than having an affair or stealing.
Also because it is in the "pilot stage" and there is still debate in society about whether a stock market should be opened, it is difficult to find even a little information about the stock market in newspapers, radio, television and other media.
In addition, the stock market is still relatively closed. If you want to buy Shanghai stocks, you have to go to Shanghai, and if you want to buy Shenzhen stocks, you have to go to Shenzhen. Now Shanghai is full of local investors, with a small number of Zhejiang investors among them, because one of the old eight stocks is Phoenix Chemical from Zhejiang Province.
At that time, the Shanghai Stock Exchange had not yet launched stock accounts. All buy or sell orders were settled in cash after execution. The order price was divided into market price and limit price. The market price was easy to understand. When the securities firm executed the order, it bought or sold at the current market price. The limit price was the specified price. Whether the transaction could be successful depended on luck.
The validity period of the entrustment is divided into valid for the same day and valid for 5 days. When filling out a buy order, investors will mostly choose the market price and 5-day valid entrustment content, because this entrustment trading method is convenient and saves trouble, and can also increase the probability of transaction.
For the stock market at this time, low buying and selling efficiency is not a problem at all. People usually worry about buying but not selling. It is difficult to buy stocks and you have to re-apply for orders again and again. If there is no price increase, you are lucky to buy stocks in a month Relatively speaking, buying and selling are relatively simple. You only need to shout at the securities firm and directly drag the buyer to the trading window to fill out the order form together.
After the transaction is completed, the settlement and delivery will be processed on the fourth business day [Monday to Friday]. That is, if you sell on Monday, you will get the money on Thursday. If it falls on the weekend, the transaction will be postponed. The stock delivery note is manually calculated and signed by the sales department staff, and a commission of 5‰ is deducted, and the remaining money is settled to the seller.
After staying in Fang Mansion for two days, which happened to be Tuesday, February 5, Nan Yi took Nan Wuwei to Jinsheng Securities on Wanhangdu Road.
There is a VIP room in Jinsheng Securities called "Jing'an Room". The VIP room is the name used privately by investors, and the official name given to it by the stock exchange is the Customer Service Department.
Among stocks, there are index stocks, or component stocks. Among investors, there are also component investors who can represent the trend of the market. These people are the old investors who came from the Jing'an Stock Exchange headed by Yang Baiwan, and they are all people Nan Yi is familiar with.
On the first day of the opening of the Shanghai Stock Exchange, this group of people accounted for more than 80% of the exchange's trading volume. Shenyin saw that these people were the bosses, so they had to set up a luxurious private room to pull them over. However, how could Shenyin compete with Jinsheng Securities? After all, Yang Baiwan and Guan Wanguo were close friends. As soon as he called out in the Jing'an group, everyone flocked to Jinsheng Securities.
In this regard, Shenyin had the earliest "big investor room" in the country, but the big investor room where real big investors sat was in Jinsheng Securities.
Nan Yi held Nan Wuwei's hand and pushed open the door of Jing'an's room. As soon as he entered the room, he raised his hand and waved to everyone, "Hello, comrades."
"The color TV model is good."
"Thank you for your hard work, comrades."
“For the stock.”
In Jing'an's room, almost half of the people had talked with Nan Yi before, and some had even eaten together. When they saw an acquaintance who had disappeared for a long time, they all responded in joy.
"Color TV model, are you still making color TVs?"
After the funny performance, Nan Yi glanced at Zhao Tianyang in the big room, and walked to Yang Baiwan without saying hello. The blind man sitting next to him heard the noise and started talking to Nan Yi.
"From the tone of your voice, you seem to be angry. Why, do you want to buy a color TV?"
"The TV at my home is only 9 inches, and I plan to change it," Wu Jiming said, rolling his eyes.
"I can get you a cheap color TV, but the machines are all in Qiongdao. I have stopped making color TVs a long time ago, and now I have no channels to transport the goods to Shanghai. If you don't mind the trouble, go there and get them yourself."
"I am blind."
Wu Jiming's implication was to just forget it and pretend he didn't say it.
"Then I have no choice." Nan Yi patted Wu Jiming's shoulder and said to Yang Baiwan, " Is the market going well?"
"With a 0.5% daily price limit, how big a market trend can that be?"
"Hehe, it's up to you to decide whether the market is going well or not. Old Yang, you are now the giant sharks behind the Shanghai stock market. You can make the price of any stock rise or fall as you wish." Nan Yi said with a smile.
"Don't be funny, if you want to talk about the giant crocodile, you are the one, and Xiao Zhao is definitely the one in the room." Yang Baiwan said, giving a thumbs up.
"Keep a low profile, keep a low profile, Lao Yang, just keep it to yourself."
Yang Baiwan lowered his voice and said, "Don't worry, I didn't tell anyone. Others don't know that Xiao Zhao is helping you trade stocks."
As he spoke, his voice returned to normal volume, "Eight hundred yuan a month, let's get together and drink tea. I put some Sheshan green tea here, do you want to drink some? This is your son, right? What's his name?"
At that time, there was no financial threshold for the big client room. You could enter by paying a monthly service fee of 800 yuan. However, this charging standard could also be regarded as an "invisible threshold". How many people were willing to spend such a large sum of money just to sit in and have a cup of tea? Now, people who can earn 400 yuan a month are rare.
"Call him Xiaowei, have a drink."
"Xiao Wei doesn't want it?"
"Forget about him, I'll just give him two sips."
Yang Baiwan took a cup and made a cup of green tea for Nan Yi. "I heard that they are going to compile some stock index futures, but I don't know when they will be released."
Nan Yi took the cup, blew a few times, and handed it to Nan Wuwei, letting him take a sip first. "Whether there is an index or not, stocks should be traded as they are. I heard that the daily price limit will be changed to 1% soon."
"I've heard about it, too. Although it has doubled, it doesn't mean much. The daily trading volume is very small now. There are only buy orders, no sell orders. It's convenient to sit here. There is a dedicated phone line. You can buy or sell whenever you want. Outside, a high-ranking order is now being hyped up to dozens of yuan. It's not easy for retail investors to buy or sell."
Yang Baiwan said, pointing to a table in the corner, "Wenwen, the customer service manager here, we all call her the high-speed runway, she takes orders quickly and is well-informed."
Following Yang Baiwan's pointing, Nan Yi looked at a long-haired woman sitting at the table. The woman was dressed very fashionably and had a middle-parted perm that was very popular among avant-garde people. Her face could not be seen from the front, but she looked okay from the side.
"What's the story?" Nan Yi asked with a pout.
"She's not a big shot. She's just a college student who graduated last year. The manager saw that she was capable and arranged her here."
"oh."
Nan Yi nodded and muttered in his heart: "I don't trust you. The one who can be arranged here must at least be Guan Wanguo's confidant in his work, and it is very likely that he has a close relationship with him."
"I heard that meals are provided here, and they're free?"
"At noon, we provide a set meal [fast food lunch], how can we let you eat a set meal when you come here? At noon, I will treat you, let's go out to eat a set meal [to a restaurant]."
"Okay."
After chatting for a while in the lavish room, when it was almost eleven o'clock, Yang Baiwan called out to the few people who had not left the lavish room, and they all went to the restaurant outside.
"You know all the old people, so I won't introduce them. This is Li Shuangcheng, we call him Big Li, this is Yang Weiguo, we call him Ertou, this one is Nan Yi, the color TV model, he used to sell color TVs, his grandfather and mother are Ala Hu Haining."
