Chapter 157 Taking East Chase

"Zeiss has a long history in East Germany, and the acquisition must be carried out quickly! Rex, tell the East German government that Wujiang Group is willing to use US dollars to acquire East Germany's Zeiss, and Wujiang Group is also willing to spend US$500 million in exchange for East Germany."

Demak!!!”

The East German economy was in recession, and the East German mark had naturally been depreciating. For the East German government, U.S. dollar foreign exchange was very important.

When Rex Eden heard this, he was a little stunned. The East German Mark has been depreciating, and the boss is still willing to exchange US dollars for East German Marks. Isn't it a huge loss?

"Boss, even if you use US dollars to acquire East Zeiss, why do you spend an extra 500 million US dollars to exchange it for East German marks? You know, East Germany is corrupt, the economy is about to collapse, and the East German mark has been depreciating all year round. We use US dollars to exchange East German marks for East German marks.

Demark, it doesn’t feel like a good deal!” Rex Aiden said with a frown.

When Zhao Ye heard this, he couldn't help but smile. Yes, under normal circumstances, the East German mark would indeed continue to depreciate, but who would have thought that after the reunification of the two Germanys, Germany would make a huge economic tilt towards East Germany. The first of them was

It is a one-step blood transfusion policy to help the east carry out economic reforms. The most important measure is the exchange of East German marks for West German marks, which stipulates that former East German citizens can exchange their worthless things at a ratio of 1:1.

The Demark was converted into West German Mark - based on the actual exchange rate at the time, the East German Mark was overvalued by 400%.

By then, Wujiang Group will hold a large amount of East German Marks, so it can make a lot of money!

If Zhao Ye hadn't been afraid that Wujiang Group would eat up too many East German Marks it held and offend the German government, how could he only exchange for East German Marks worth US$500 million?

Zhao Ye did not explain this to Rex Aiden, but only told him to follow his instructions.

Needless to say, the East D government was extremely surprised when they learned of the conditions proposed by Zhao Ye, and any resistance seemed insignificant in the face of money.

Besides, selling a loss-making and bankrupt company in exchange for a large amount of foreign exchange is so worth it~

On Christmas Day, December 25, the East German government officially approved Wujiang Group’s plan to acquire East Zeiss.

This news spread to China and immediately caused a huge sensation in the industry!

Domestic researchers in lens-related industries were shocked.

Domestic senior leaders are all excited.

The general public felt proud after understanding what kind of company Zeiss was.

Although East Zeiss has not developed well in recent years and has been beaten up by Japanese manufacturers, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. As a world-famous optical giant, Zeiss's optical lens technology is still the best in the world!

Wujiang Group paid a huge price to acquire East Zeiss, but it was worth every penny.

The next morning, Rex Aiden came to East Chase.

"Mr. Lance Garden, please call all the scientific research and technical personnel, I have something to say." Rex Eden said to Lance Garden, the new president of East Zeiss.

During the investigation over the past year, Rex Eden discovered that although the top management of East Zeiss Company was corrupt and overstaffed, there were still some people who were dedicated and talented. Among them, Lance Garden was the leader. Therefore, the Wujiang Group was

On the day of the acquisition of East Zeiss, Lance Garden was quickly promoted to the new president and ruthlessly fired a large number of company bugs, including several East Zeiss executives who had accepted bribes.

These people couldn't help but scold Rex Eden for burning bridges and being ungrateful.

However, when Rex Eden directly threw the evidence that they were using their power for personal gain and embezzling the interests of East Zeiss Company in their faces, none of them were afraid to say a word.

"Okay, Mr. Eden." Lance Garden responded, and then went to notify the scientific research and technical personnel of East Zeiss to come to the conference room for a meeting.

Half an hour later.

Everyone came to a large conference room.

At this time, East D's industry was in decline, the economy was on the verge of collapse, social injustice was severe, the privileges and corruption of the bureaucracy and the suffocating political pressure made it impossible for people to see a future or a way out.

In addition, East Zeiss has suffered losses for many years, resulting in East Zeiss' scientific research and technical personnel living in a very tight situation. At a glance, everyone's energy and spirit are very poor.

However, Wujiang Group's acquisition of East Zeiss gave them a glimmer of hope.

Rex Aiden looked around at this time and said loudly to everyone: "Hello everyone, my name is Rex Aiden. On behalf of Chairman Zhao Ye, I welcome everyone to join the big family of Wujiang Group! Here, I have a

Something important needs to be announced."

After a pause, he said, "At present, the environment in East Germany is very bad. Chairman Zhao hopes that everyone can go to Shanghai, China. Shanghai is the most economically developed and prosperous city in China, ranking among the top in Asia. Wujiang Group can

We will provide you with a superior scientific research environment, scientific research start-up funds that are far beyond the competitiveness of the same industry, doubled wages, housing subsidies and housing apartment guarantees, etc...

And we can arrange jobs for your family, arrange schools for your children, and solve all your worries.

So, does anyone want to work in Shanghai, China right now?”

Rex Aiden asked finally.

As soon as he finished speaking, the conference room suddenly became noisy.

Everyone looked at each other and talked about it.

"The salary is doubled. This is a good treatment. It also provides jobs for my family. Then my whole family can immigrate to China."

"It is said that China has developed rapidly in recent years, and Shanghai is about to become an international city! Moreover, the headquarters of Wujiang Group is located in Shanghai. In my opinion, if we work in Shanghai, we will have more development prospects!"

"Corruption is rampant in Dongdong. I am already disappointed with it. I plan to go to China to see it!"

"..."

After giving everyone a minute to think, Rex Aiden then said loudly: "Anyone who is willing to work in Shanghai, China, please raise your hands?"

As soon as he finished speaking, four-fifths of the people raised their hands in a short time, almost more than 400 people.

Seeing this, Rex Aiden nodded with satisfaction.

"Mr. Rex Eden, what are your plans for those of us who don't want to go to China?" Someone raised their hands and asked, with a trace of worry on their faces. It's hard to leave their homeland, and they don't want to leave their hometown, but

It is not easy to find a job in East Germany now. They are afraid of being fired because they do not go to work in China.

Rex Aiden smiled at the man and replied: "Don't worry, our group company also has arrangements for those who really don't want to work in China... Then just stay in Germany, Wujiang Group is here

A large-scale scientific research center will also be established here. However, your various benefits may not be as high as those of employees who travel to China for work."

In fact, Wujiang Group’s scientific research focus has always been on Shanghai.

As for the scientific research center in Germany, it was mainly used to attract East German talents to prevent them from immigrating to the United States.

As we all know, Germany’s precision machining has always been strong.

Therefore, Zhao Ye just planned to take advantage of the current unstable situation and economic recession in East Germany to poach people.

Tiangong Technology Company is extremely hungry for precision machining talents.

When the meeting was about to end, Rex Eden asked someone to register a list of people who wanted to work in Shanghai, China.

…

…

Wujiang Group’s acquisition of East Zeiss caused a sensation in East Germany’s scientific research field.

Many people are more concerned about the treatment given to East Zeiss employees after Wujiang Group acquired East Zeiss.

"After Wujiang Group acquired East Zeiss, it injected 300 million East German rubles to purchase new scientific research equipment and production equipment for East Zeiss, and gave employees salary increases ranging from 10% to 100%. It is said that as long as they go to China to work

The wages of scientific researchers will be doubled directly!" The level of manufacturing technology in East Germany is actually quite high, not only East Germany's Zeiss... For example, the East German People's Union Machinery Factory is very powerful. At this moment, the factory's technology

The great Peter Eugene couldn't help but sigh when he read the newspaper.

Several colleagues around Peter Eugene looked envious.

"I'm so envious. After seeing this, I want to go there too. The benefits are much better than ours. Our machinery factory has not paid wages for several months!"

"Yeah, I wonder if Wujiang Group is still recruiting people?" someone asked.

At this time, Peter Eugene said: "The Wujiang Group has been recruiting people in East Germany. Not long ago, someone from the Wujiang Group contacted me and asked me to switch jobs to them."

Everyone was shocked when they heard this. Immediately, someone suggested: "Peter Eugene, how about you take us to join the Wujiang Group? The People's United Machinery Factory has not paid us wages for several months. If this continues, what will happen to us?"

You have to drink the northwest wind!"

Peter Eugene thought for a while and nodded solemnly: "Okay, let's jump to Wujiang Group together!"

In fact, the choice of Peter Eugene and others is just a microcosm in East Germany. At this moment, similar things are happening in major companies in East Germany.

The wages of East German scientific research and technical personnel are actually horribly low. Even so, the factory often defaults on wages. No wonder these people want to leave East Germany.

Compared with current Chinese scientific researchers, the wages of East German scientific researchers are not much better.

Zhao Ye is willing to hire them with high salaries to develop in China.

Wujiang Group's products focus on the European and American markets, and its scientific researchers come from all over the world. Their salary levels are also as close as possible to those in Europe and the United States.

There is a saying that "worry not about scarcity but inequality". Many domestic scientific researchers work in the same research institute as European and American scientific researchers. If the salary level is too different, it will easily lead to an unbalanced mentality among domestic scientific researchers.

Of course, the stronger the person, the higher the salary they can get.

Zhao Ye's Wujiang Group follows the previous Huawei's job title classification, salary system, and welfare benefits...

For example, the employee levels of Wujiang Group are also divided into levels 13-22, and level 23 and above are high-level bosses.

From levels 13 to 18, each level is divided into three sub-levels ABC. Most employees are within level 18, and salary increases slow down above level 15.

An ordinary employee who has worked for Wujiang Group for ten years is probably around level 16-17, with an annual salary of about 50,000-100,000.

Newly hired fresh graduates are generally in 13C, usually 2 grades per year. Of course, employees with particularly outstanding performance can also advance by one grade a year or even skip two or three grades.
