After the signing reception, Mr. Deng brought Ji Donglai to his office and began to give instructions in a low voice. Ji Donglai nodded secretly, thinking that everything that should come should come back. Relationships are the same in every company no matter how big it is.
The accounting level sent by the other party was equivalent to that of Zhao Shuying, and the other party also had his own assistant. Zhao Shuying was mainly responsible for the general ledger and the business of Ji Donglai's other departments.
As for the new accountant, he is only responsible for the joint venture factory.
"Dong Lai, you won't be able to make a fortune this time. We have some reducers involved in these equipment in stock, and if we don't have them, we can mold them ourselves! As for these auxiliary processing equipment, we have them ready-made, and we can price them according to the market price Enter the joint venture factory."
"In addition, the initial investment in the testing equipment at the joint venture factory cannot be that large. Everything that needs to be tested is managed by our main laboratory. This is also considered outsourcing, and it is all money!"
"Also, as for the salary of personnel, you are now based on the salary of professional managers in foreign companies, with an annual salary of five million yuan! Some of the equipment drawings from foreigners have been sent over, and the raw materials are all made from our scrap collection station. They are all from China. Carbon steel is no problem!"
"In addition, I have rented a place for your parents in the steel market. Every time the shipping documents are sent there, there will be no problems in the accounts."
The joint venture company was officially on the agenda, and Zhao Shuying taught Ji Donglai almost step by step how to perform legal operations. Ji Donglai had never even understood that he could play like this before.
In particular, many non-standard equipment produced by its own factories can now be sold to joint venture companies at market prices.
The workers' wages are also paid directly from the joint venture, and the bank is the Agricultural Bank of China owned by Cui Mingyan's uncle Qi Yong. This alone makes Cui Mingyan burst into tears of gratitude.
Different from Ji Donglai's other two factories, everything in the joint venture factory is set up in accordance with foreign standardized factories. All workers have five insurances and one housing fund, and various safety facilities, fire protection facilities, and electric power facilities are all newly invested.
Even the factory has recruited three safety workers. They occasionally visit the site every day and spend the rest of the time filling out documents.
"Hey, Ji Donglai, didn't you see that the factory has grown bigger and the whole factory has been given to you? Now you are the general manager of a foreign-funded enterprise, disrespectful!"
Ji Donglai didn't expect that boss Tan Xiumei, who disappeared on time every year at the end of the year, would appear in his factory this time and bring him a gift.
"Come on, Boss Tan. What kind of business have you come to our land to discuss again? I haven't seen you for a long time. I thought you went back to China to get married!".br>
After directly inviting Tan Xiumei to his new office, Ji Donglai started teasing with the other party. The other party still spoke in English throughout the process and did not speak a word of Chinese.
"Why are you getting married? I am a non-marriage person, and many people there are like me. Only your country still takes the reproduction of offspring as its responsibility. We all think that if the poor give birth to children, they will be used as coolies!"
"People with slightly better conditions are just providing people with a tax amount. Why give birth to them to do such a thing? Just live a happy life. By the way, I heard that your old lady is back. You don't Are you busy making little people?"
Tan Xiumei's view on marriage shocked Ji Donglai, because it is almost the same as the view on marriage of young people in China decades later. Is this an inevitable result of industrialization? Ji Donglai felt wary.
"Tch, they came here with the head office, and they didn't come back for me at all, do you understand? How did you know they were coming to invest? Could it be that you also brought your own company here? Do you want me to introduce suppliers or venues?"
The timelines matched, and Ji Donglai guessed that Tan Xiumei's own company was almost there.
It turns out that Ji Donglai guessed correctly, but it was not accurate.
"Tch, I brought my company here a long time ago, but I just didn't cooperate with you. I'm not to blame for this. If your factory was as clean and tidy as it is now, and the management is so advanced, I will definitely take it. The business is for you."
"It's a pity that your factory was in such poor condition at that time that I could only provide you with OEM products. Where did you find your management? It looks good. I'll introduce it to you if there are projects in the future."
Talking about cooperation, Tan Xiumei directly settled the factory in Suzhou during this period. The facilities there are very complete. The most important thing is that many of the management concepts are very close to those of foreigners.
After repeated inspections, Tan Xiumei finally assigned the project to the other party. When Ji Donglai heard the other party talking about management, he hesitated slightly and then smiled.
"Why are you laughing? Am I wrong? The original management conditions of your factory do not allow it. Don't blame me for this. We cannot hand over our company to such a backward management company. I have no intention of targeting you."
Tan Xiumei hugged her coffee cup with sincerity in her eyes, while Ji Donglai shook his head.
"Sister, you are from across the ocean. You should know what proportion of the so-called advanced system management you are talking about in the overall operation of the company, which is thirty to forty percent!"
"Is it possible for a small company like me to lower profits to do this kind of advanced thing you call? Once institutionalized things are formed, they will have a negative impact on production. The high institutional costs require higher profit points to support! My company's original profits It’s not very high, so how can we support these system costs?”
"You have to understand a lot of things to understand our business philosophy. The current Suzhou factory you mentioned is understandable. Their management does look better than ours. But if you look closely, they are just Are you acting like this when you are not present? Absolutely not!"
"Just like us now, when foreigners come to inspect, we just make everything and the foreigners are happy! After that, we will return to the original management. Why? The cost is low!"
"Whether you are talking about isO, ts or Toyota management, any management system is supported by an advanced product industry chain. Ts is the standard of the American Association of Automobile Manufacturers and is supported by high-profit value-added products."
"Toyota's management also follows the added value of Toyota products. ISO is originally a European standard. How much does it cost to sell their products to us?"
"The economic base determines the superstructure. In our factory, the profit point determines the management system. Don't talk to me about anything else! The reason why I have a modern management system now is because I have high profit points here, and I need to give you these People show themselves. As for the things you mentioned, I’m sorry! I still can’t do it now, and I won’t be able to do it if there are no high value-added things in the future...”
