"In the past two years, new cotton yarns are still hot. Many textile companies are trying to squeeze in, for fear of falling behind and being abandoned."
"Our Anhua company is one of the first independent textile mills to enter the new cotton yarn industry. We have made huge profits in the past two years. Naturally, our boss will not be willing to be pulled down by latecomers!"
"Although the market for new high-end cotton yarns has gradually become saturated, the mid-range market still has great potential. As for the low-end market, company executives believe that it will take at least five years to popularize it in the low-end market due to equipment and technology costs. !”
"So our company will continue to be determined to enter new cotton yarns, but our company's current factories are all saturated. In order to continue to expand the production capacity of new cotton yarns, our company acquired a medium-sized independent cotton yarn factory that was not operating well and was facing bankruptcy as a branch factory. ."
"This newly acquired cotton yarn branch will upgrade its production line and fully switch to the production of new cotton yarns, mainly to produce mid-range new cotton yarns and seize more markets for mid-range new cotton yarns!"
"Although the new factory is expected to have only seven to eight hundred people, which is one-third less than our main factory, it will still set up various technical departments to maintain the operation of the factory, which naturally requires a section chief of the mechanical maintenance department."
“The boss asked me if there was anyone in the mechanical repair department who could take on a major role in the branch factory?”
When Section Chief Wang said this, he looked into Sun Xu's eyes and said, "I recommended you to the boss!"
Sun Xu was stunned when he heard this... He thought that if he continued to work hard, especially if he mastered various other textile-related equipment, he could break the current situation of being specialized and incomplete in the technical field, and then Open up a path to further promotion to deputy section chief.
However, he did not expect that he had not yet reached the level of specialization and comprehensiveness, and the position of deputy section chief had no shadow, and he would become the section chief of the mechanical maintenance section of the branch factory.
Although it is just a branch factory, and the size of the branch factory is only about one-third of the main factory, no matter how small it is, it is still a complete factory. Let himself be the chief of the mechanical maintenance department of the branch factory... Even he himself It feels unreliable: "But I... lack a lot in other areas. If I take the lead alone, I'm afraid..."
It’s not that he doesn’t have courage or guts...it’s that technology is something he just can’t do. As a section chief of the mechanical repair department, he is responsible not only for the new cotton yarn equipment, but also for all the equipment in a factory... There are more than a dozen main types of equipment that are directly related to the safety and efficiency of the production line.
As for the types of equipment that Sun Xu can handle, optimistic estimates only account for about half!
Sun Xu is very self-aware of his abilities. It would be no problem if you asked him to be responsible for a new cotton yarn field, or even a few more fields, but he would be responsible for the installation, debugging, maintenance, repair, etc. of all equipment in the entire factory... To be honest, he couldn't do it.
In fact, there is only one person in the entire Anhua Textile Company who can do this, and that is Section Chief Wang in front of him...
But two deputy section chiefs and multiple team leaders can't do it...
At this time, Section Chief Wang said: "I know very well what your abilities are, but I still recommended you to the boss. Do you know why?"
Sun Xu actually doesn’t quite understand it either!
He obviously lacks sufficient ability, and if we talk about qualifications, he is even less qualified... There are two more senior deputy section chiefs in the Mechanical Maintenance Department.
Section Chief Wang said: "You said that if an old factory wants to be upgraded and transformed into a factory that produces new cotton yarn, what is the most important thing? The installation and debugging of the new cotton yarn equipment, as well as subsequent maintenance and repairs."
"And you are capable enough in this area!"
"As for other equipment, other mechanics can be responsible for it. What is lacking now are mechanics who can be responsible for the new cotton yarn equipment, not ordinary mechanics!"
"The machine maintenance department of the branch factory will assign you a few more team leaders with expertise in other fields. You can let them handle the ordinary equipment. You only need to concentrate on the new cotton yarn equipment!"
"Go with confidence and boldness, this is a challenge, but it is also an opportunity!"
"If you have no objection, follow me to see the boss later!"
Sun Xu's mind was still dizzy at this moment... After all, anyone comes to work early in the morning, and then the boss tells you that he will give you a triple jump rocket promotion... and he knows full well that you are not capable, But he still forced you to take the position...
Everyone is dizzy!
But as Section Chief Wang said, this is a challenge, but it is also an opportunity.
If you miss this time, it will not be so easy to get such a quick promotion next time.
There are also many mechanics in Anhua Textile Company, there are dozens of them in total, many of them are veteran mechanics who have been working for more than ten or even twenty years.
However, most of them are ordinary mechanics, and it is difficult to become a team leader... After all, Anhua Textile Company is not a rigid large company, and it pays attention to seniority. This company is a serious company. Private enterprises are all about profit.
Specific to the machine repair department, if you have good skills and can guarantee the factory's production and bring profits to the factory to avoid losses due to equipment failure, then the boss will give you a promotion and a salary increase...otherwise, he will leave you a job and not fire him. It would be great if I drop you!
So even though he was very worried, Sun Xu still nodded heavily: "Since you trust me, section chief, then I will go and make every effort to do the machine repair work of the branch factory and ensure that the installation and debugging of the new production can be put into production as soon as possible." ."
After saying that, he bent over to Section Chief Wang and said, "Thank you very much for the recommendation, Section Chief. I will never forget my kindness and support many times in my life!"
This time, Sun Xu bent down to say thank you willingly and even moved with excitement!
Section Chief Wang has always been very good to him. It was Section Chief Wang who personally recruited him in the first place, and not long after he made the decision to make him a full-time employee, and then promoted him to team leader in front of his boss.
Not to mention that Sun Xu learned many of his techniques from Section Chief Wang.
To be honest, he was grateful from the bottom of his heart for Section Chief Wang's support to him. He has always kept this kindness in his heart and will not forget it in the future.
Section Chief Wang smiled and stood there and accepted Sun Xu's bow!
"My support is not open to anyone... You have earned all this through your own hard work, and I can see all your hard work."
"I have coached many people in the industry for more than 20 years, but there are not many people who are as smart and diligent as you!"
"I hope you won't be satisfied, don't be proud, let alone become a section chief in the branch factory, and let yourself go when no one is in charge!"
"On the contrary, you have to work harder and be more attentive. Not only do you have to do a good job in the new equipment, but you also have to seize the time to continue learning, because you will be a section chief in the future... and a section chief cannot handle the equipment in the factory. , the people below will not be convinced!"
“And more importantly, for those of us who are engaged in technology, nothing else matters, what matters is technology!”
“Technology is our foundation!”
Sun Xu immediately said: "I will remember it!"
In fact, Sun Xu was deeply impressed by Section Chief Wang’s words, “Technology is our foundation.” Why was he able to get promotions and raises along the way, gain the appreciation of Section Chief Wang, and even now become a branch factory in one step? Section chief?
It is because he worked hard to learn technology and quickly surpassed others in the new cotton yarn equipment, becoming the person second only to Section Chief Wang in Anhua Textile Company. Apart from Section Chief Wang, he is also the only one who can lead the team independently. The person who solves almost any new equipment issue.
Only with such skills can he be promoted and get a raise!
On the contrary, if he didn't understand the new cotton yarn technology, he would probably still be earning a salary of about ten yuan and working hard like other ordinary mechanics.
After the two talked, Section Chief Wang took Sun Xu to see the boss Wang Liqing on the spot.
Wang Liqing naturally attaches great importance to the candidate for the chief of the mechanical maintenance department of the first branch factory, and he is more respectful than before during the conversation.
When facing his boss Wang Liqing at this time, Sun Xu couldn't even feel any sense of distance from him... At this time, Wang Liqing's words made Sun Xu feel like a spring breeze blowing on his face, and he felt very comfortable.
And Sun Xu also understood better why Section Chief Wang said before that the boss was a very generous person... That was really generous!
In a few words, his boss Wang Liqing gave him a salary increase. The basic salary was directly raised to 100 yuan. In addition to the basic salary, there were housing subsidies, catering subsidies, transportation subsidies, attendance subsidies, overtime subsidies, etc., etc. The amount of subsidies is directly doubled from before.
Calculated in this way, as long as there are no major problems and he maintains full attendance, Sun Xu's comprehensive annual salary can even reach about 1,800 yuan.
At the same time, the boss Wang Liqing also gave additional rewards for the installation, commissioning and subsequent operation and maintenance of the new production of the branch!
The equipment will be put in place one after another. Once the equipment is in place, if the installation and debugging of the production line are completed within the specified time, so that the new cotton yarn production line can run smoothly, then he will be able to receive a reward of more than 500 Chuyuan at one time.
After the factory is officially put into production, on a quarterly basis, as long as the production line is kept running smoothly, there will be an additional bonus of two hundred Chu Yuan every quarter.
When Sun Xu heard about the salary and rewards of his new position, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva... No wonder his immediate boss, Section Chief Wang, remained unmoved in the face of other companies' rounds of poaching, and would say in front of Sun Xu from time to time. The boss is very generous!
This is so generous!
The comprehensive annual salary is around 1,800 Chu Yuan. If you add in the quarterly bonus, it will be 2,600 Chu Yuan!
Such a high salary is more than double Sun Xu's current annual comprehensive income...
And this is an extremely high salary that ordinary workers can’t even imagine!
Then he couldn't help but glance at his old boss, Section Chief Wang, next to him. He, a novice section chief, and a novice branch chief who was specialized but not complete, could get so much, so he would be responsible for the entire Anhua Textile Company. In all equipment fields, how much can your old boss, Section Chief Wang, earn?
Section Chief Wang noticed his gaze and gave him a meaningful smile!
The meeting with the boss Wang Liqing ended smoothly in a gentle manner. After signing his name in the new three-year guaranteed contract, Sun Xu was still in a daze when he walked out of the boss's office... It all happened too suddenly, and too surprise.
After Sun Xu and Section Chief Wang left, Wang Liqing looked at the three-year guaranteed contract signed by Sun Xu without much joy. After a long time, he sighed softly: Talents are too expensive!
Letting Sun Xu be the chief of the mechanical maintenance department of the newly acquired factory was not Wang Liqing's original intention, but a desperate solution.
As for the reason, it's very simple... He couldn't hire, or was reluctant to hire, a capable technical expert to be the head of the machine repair department in the branch factory.
The positioning of the new branch factory is to produce new cotton yarn... This involves a series of new cotton yarns that require many new equipment, including not only the new spinning machines developed by Hantian Textile Company, but also many supporting new equipment.
These new types of equipment have only appeared for a year or two. Unless there are really strong and talented mechanics, it will be very difficult for ordinary mechanics to master the many technical requirements of so many new equipment.
Their Anhua Textile Company was the first to enter the field of new cotton yarns and the first independent spinning factory to train relevant professionals. However, two years later, they only trained Section Chief Wang and Sun Xu, making Section Chief Wang himself the A technical expert in a field, he has a strong basic theory from a college degree and has many years of practical experience, so he can get started quickly.
Sun Xu has lower academic qualifications, but he is smart, studious and very diligent. Of course, the most important thing is that he has enough talent... so he can become the second one after Section Chief Wang.
As for other people, they have only mastered the surface after two years of training.
This is the situation of their Anhua Textile Company, and it is actually similar for other companies that are entering new cotton yarns. It is very difficult and takes a lot of time to cultivate a core technical backbone that can lead a team.
Two years have passed, and there are still very few top technical talents in the field of new cotton yarn equipment... However, more and more textile companies are entering the field of new cotton yarn, and the competition for talents is even more intense than a year ago.
Many textile companies that have recently entered the field of new cotton yarns are waving checks to poach people... and the remuneration offered is higher than the previous one.
When he first acquired the branch factory, Wang Liqing had actually begun to look for technical talents from outside. He had to find a technical expert to take charge of the branch factory. Even though his technical level was not as good as that of Section Chief Wang, he could not be too far behind.
But after searching around, he found that the people he could hire or poach were not very skilled, and it was too expensive to poach people with enough technical skills...
Damn it, I don’t know which bastard is responsible for this. Textile companies have signed multi-year guarantee contracts for these core talents in the new cotton yarn field, and liquidated damages have been set at high prices...
Well, in fact, when the new cotton yarn industry first emerged, everyone was not familiar with it and did not realize the importance of relevant professionals... At that time, few companies would sign this thing for mechanics in the new cotton yarn field... The cost would increase As a boss, why should I guarantee the contract for these mechanics if they have nothing to do... It's too much money!
But later on, making money from new cotton yarn was like printing money... Other textile companies saw it and swarmed in. This instantly caused the price of relevant professional talents in the new cotton yarn industry to skyrocket. In order to poach people, many companies came out to protect Ketong.
It was also at that time that in order to prevent his own core technical backbone from being poached, Wang Liqing signed a guarantee contract with a few core technical backbones in the new cotton yarn field, such as Section Chief Wang and Sun Xu... This guarantee contract also had liquidated damages for prohibition of business.
If we really talk about it, even if he, Wang Liqing, was not the initiator, he was at least the first textile industry boss to do this.
It’s now very troublesome for people to dig it out!
He had previously contacted a technical boss who was indeed interested in changing jobs. He was the technical backbone of the spinning mill of Su Qin Textile Company.
This person's skills are very solid and excellent. Although he is a little worse than Section Chief Wang, he is still fully qualified for the position of Chief of the Mechanical Maintenance Section.
But in the end, Wang Liqing was reluctant to do it...it was too expensive to dig up.
The salary is okay, he can afford it with an annual salary of several thousand dollars... But the problem is that the non-competition agreement on this person is too troublesome.
This kind of non-competition agreement cannot be circumvented even if the employee voluntarily resigns. They are still not allowed to engage in related work during the contract period...otherwise they will have to pay huge liquidated damages.
Most people in the Dachu Empire have no chance to come into contact with the non-competition agreement... After all, companies have to pay a lot of money to sign this thing with their employees... If you don't pay enough, who will sign with you this thing that restricts you from changing jobs? ah!
Moreover, the amount of liquidated damages is not randomly determined. It is linked to salary. Only when your salary is high enough can you sign a high enough amount of liquidated damages.
It is impossible to give employees an ordinary salary of seven to eight thousand yuan and then ask them to sign tens of thousands of yuan in liquidated damages. Even if they sign, it will be legally invalid...
Therefore, even if low-paid employees sign a non-competition agreement, the liquidated damages will not be very high...so it is of little significance.
This thing itself is prepared for high-paying groups.
The salary of the person Wang Liqing wants to poach is high, so the liquidated damages are also very high... more than 50,000.
The parties involved will definitely not bear such a high liquidated damages, and the companies that need to recruit people will bear it...
More than 50,000 yuan in liquidated damages, plus several thousand yuan in settling-in expenses, an additional several thousand yuan in annual salary and various incentives, and the person even offered to buy a certain number of shares... After the final calculation, Wang Liqing was completely convinced I gave up the idea of poaching people with high salary.
We really can’t afford to recruit top talents!
Since people from outside can’t afford it, we have no choice but to find talents from within.
It just so happens that in their Anhua Textile Company, in addition to Section Chief Wang, there is also Sun Xu... Although Sun Xu's technical ability in other aspects is still a bit lacking... But the new factory needs the Chief of the Mechanical Department, and the others can be temporarily If you don’t understand, you just need to understand the relevant equipment in the field of new cotton yarn.
As for the installation, commissioning and maintenance of equipment in other fields, it can be completely undertaken by other ordinary mechanics.
Although mechanics are considered technical talents, they are relatively scarce in the market, and their salaries have always been relatively high. If you work for a few years, you can earn a monthly salary of more than ten or twenty yuan... But even if there is a shortage of ordinary mechanics in the market, it will not As for not being able to hire them, with a little better treatment, you can grab a bunch of mechanics to choose from.
What is really lacking is a new top mechanic like Sun Xu who has strong knowledge, theory and practical ability in the field of new cotton yarn equipment, and can lead a new cotton yarn equipment team alone.
So after discussing with Section Chief Wang, he finally came up with this solution: let Sun Xu be the chief of the mechanical maintenance department of the branch factory, and then transfer several key mechanical maintenance personnel from other fields from the main factory to work as a team. Long, in this way, the machine maintenance problem of the new factory can be barely solved.
If it doesn't work, you can ask Section Chief Wang to take someone there to solve the problem.
Although this method has many limitations, it saves money... Compared with the cost of recruiting people, which can easily reach tens of thousands, giving Sun Xu a little extra salary is just trivial!
Moreover, cultivating your own talents will save you money in the future.
So Sun Xu thought that he could double his salary and earn a lot with generous bonuses, but in fact, the personnel costs saved by Wang Liqing were at least tens of thousands...
So from Wang Liqing's point of view, Sun Xu is a good employee. It not only allows him to make money, but also saves him money... It is also normal to give him a promotion and a salary increase.
Sun Xu naturally didn't know that he was just an alternative among alternatives...the last choice made out of desperation.
He thought it was simply appreciation from his boss, that the boss valued him...
But even if he knew it, he would feel it didn't matter, and he's not stupid... He knew very well that with his technical ability, getting to the top position itself would have the taste of chasing ducks to the shelves... and Section Chief Wang and Boss Wang couldn't possibly not know this. .
Since you know you can still use yourself, there must be a reason why you must use yourself!
And these don't matter... He is just a wage earner. Promotion and salary increase is a good thing, no matter how it comes...
And when leaving, when Boss Wang's accompanying secretary said goodbye, he shouted "Section Chief Sun", which made him lighten his steps!
But after the joy, he was worried about another problem. Although the branch factory was also in Beicheng District, it was further away from Dongqin Community in the northern suburbs where he lived.
This means he spends too much time commuting to and from get off work, leaving less time at home with his wife.
This can be regarded as the only unpleasant factor among many good things.
