Is this because these employees rely on their long time in Jieke Company and are senior employees, so they rely on their seniority to deliberately work but not work hard, which leads to the situation of Jieke Company deteriorating. Tang Ran asked.

Cheng Qian was a little surprised by Tang Ran’s question: I don’t understand why you think this way. We do not adopt a lifelong employment system like Japanese companies. If someone deliberately works but does not work hard, with some ulterior motives, I will definitely ask him to leave. This is Silicon Valley, and I can find other replacement employees at any time. No one can be replaced. Moreover, I have only been in office for a month and will not have any emotional burden.

After explaining this before the process, Zhou Ming and Tang Ran suddenly realized that this is not in China, nor is there such a business position. In a private enterprise, if someone dares to rely on his seniority, then the boss can let him leave at any time in order to improve efficiency.

So that's it, but if it weren't for the employee's reliance on his seniority, would there be any other problem Zhou Ming asked?

Cheng Qian nodded and said: Actually, I can understand your ideas. Moreover, as for the current situation of Jieke Company, old employees do account for the majority. They do not work hard, but they do not have the intention of working hard. But because of their old employees, Jieke Company fell into today's dilemma. In short, this problem is very complicated.

Cheng Qian scratched his head in distress as he said, as if he didn't know what to say, and what he said was unclear, Zhou Ming and Tang Ran were also confused.

Suddenly, Cheng Qian seemed to have thought of something suddenly. He took out a document from his body and handed it to Zhou Ming. This action stunned Zhou Ming for a moment. Obviously, after this previous contact, he also saw who was the one who was the one who made the decision.

Zhou Ming naturally accepted it without hesitation. Cheng Qian explained: This is a performance report for the company this month. I originally planned to fax it back to the board of directors, but since you are here first, you also need to understand the company's situation, so I will give it to you first.

Zhou Ming nodded silently, then opened the documents given by Cheng Qian and looked at them with Tang Ran. Tang Ran looked at them and said: Although I don’t know the situation here, your performance of $200,000 is really a little less. I’m afraid this is not enough for the office rent.

Tang Ran's evaluation made Cheng Qian feel very embarrassed, so he had to continue saying: There is actually a reason for this performance. You can focus on the old employees who are still in the company. I have laid off all the new employees who are not good at the performance, and I have introduced them to you in the company just now.

Following Cheng Qian's introduction, Tang Ran found those familiar names. She was curious: Their performance is very good compared to others, so there seems to be no problem.

Cheng Qian shook his head: Their performance is good, and it is indeed better than the performance of those new employees, but the problem is just here. I think you will definitely not guess this question.

Before Cheng Qian finished speaking, Zhou Ming said: If I guess wrong, when you took office, you should have set a benchmark for all employees whether they have been laid off, which is everyone's performance. The performance of these old employees is exactly equal to or slightly higher than the performance benchmark you stipulated.

How did you see that this document does not seem to list the baseline I gave them. Cheng Qian asked in surprise.

It's true that there are not, but I see that the performance of these old employees is basically the same, so I guessed it. It seems that I was right. Zhou Ming then said, let me guess again, since it is the problem of employees, not the problem of not working hard, then they can generate more orders, but they have all been suppressed, and they have just achieved the performance you stipulated to ensure that they will not be laid off. They don't want to generate as many orders as possible.

If Zhou Ming's guess was only surprised Cheng Qian, then now it shocked him. Cheng Qian looked at Zhou Ming in amazement, feeling extremely incredible. You must know that it took him a whole month to discover this situation. Unexpectedly, Zhou Ming just took a look at the performance report and saw that what kind of person is this?

Of course, Cheng Qian also understood that Zhou Ming now has his own reminder and has a company's performance report in his hand, but just by relying on these, this insight is still terrifying.

No wonder the board of directors will hand over the company to you for management. It seems that you do have this ability, especially you, Mr. Zhou Ming, you are so surprising. Cheng Qian said sincerely.

Thank you very much for your praise. Although I think this is more of the role of you giving me this performance document, I just read the information above simply. Zhou Ming humbled himself and continued to say that this problem is indeed difficult to deal with, because they did not work but work hard, and they are indeed the best-performing company. You can't fire them just because you suspect that they deliberately suppressed the order. This will definitely lead to a lawsuit. So Mr. Cheng Qian doesn't know what countermeasures you have to think of in this situation.

Faced with Zhou Ming's problem, Cheng Qian smiled bitterly and shook his head and said: If I could think of a solution, the board of directors would probably not come to you again.

I think Mr. Cheng Qian, you may have misunderstood. It involves another matter when we come to Jieke Company, and it has nothing to do with your ability, or we don’t want to compete with you for a job, Zhou Ming said.

Cheng Qian looked at Zhou Ming for some reason: I don’t understand what you mean, but I really can’t do anything about it. The reason why I prepare fax documents is that I hope to listen to the opinions of the board of directors.

While talking, the waiter at the restaurant started serving. Zhou Ming opened a bottle of wine for himself and Cheng Qian, asked Tang Ran for a bottle of milk, and then raised his glass to Cheng Qian and said: Mr. Cheng Qian, I am very grateful for what you told us today, which allows us to understand the real situation of Jieke Company. I would like to wish you a glass.

After saying that, Zhou Ming raised his head and drank a drink first, Cheng Qian sighed: Actually, I am just a little unwilling to accept it. After all, I came to Jieke's company to bring him out of the predicament. This is my first time leading a company independently. I really hope that I can really do something, and I also really hope that I can create miracles, but obviously I am thinking too much.

Cheng Qian said with a bitter smile and shrugged, then said to Zhou Ming: But I believe that Mr. Zhou Ming, you can definitely do it.

Zhou Ming smiled casually, not asking about this question. Tang Ran took the initiative to help Zhou Ming fill a glass of wine. Zhou Ming raised his glass and toasted Cheng Qian with another glass. He asked: I don’t know what Mr. Cheng Qian plans for the future.

Cheng Qian was stunned when he heard this question, then shook his head and said: I will submit my resume and find another job.

Zhou Ming raised his eyebrows and asked: Why did Mr. Cheng Qian say that? Isn’t Mr. Cheng Qian an important manager of the family?

If I were, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been driven away in just one month.

Cheng Qian smiled wryly and said that he then told his own story. It turned out that he was just a business representative of another technology company. Because of his excellent performance, he was favored by the headhunter company and hired for Jeko Company with a high salary.

If I hadn't been tempted by the high salary of the board of directors of Jeko, I'm afraid I would still be a very good business representative now. Cheng Qian said with great emotion that it seems that people should not be too greedy. I only have the ability to do my own business, but I still want to lead a company. I am still a little too conceited, but I just hope that my marketing ability will not be taken away with me. At least I am pointing at my marketing ability to find another job.

Listening to Cheng Qian's words, Zhou Ming nodded silently. Although Cheng Qian's words had a lot of self-deprecating elements, Zhou Ming also understood it.

It seems that Cheng Qian is indeed not an important manager of the Tang family, and may not even be a member of the Tang family. This is probably because the Tang family used other methods to make Jeke turn losses into profits. Other professional managers did not want to come and cause trouble for themselves when they saw Jeke's situation, so the Tang family could only poach one person from outside. From the books, the problem with Jeke's company seemed to be in terms of performance, so the Tang family found Cheng Qian through the headhunting company.

Zhou Ming thought about this information in his mind and asked before asking: So are you willing to stay in Jieke Company?

Faced with this sudden problem, Cheng Qian was completely stunned. Tang Ran also looked at Zhou Ming in surprise. Cheng Qian stared at Zhou Ming and said: Mr. Zhou Ming, please forgive me, this joke is not funny.

But I was not joking. Zhou Ming said, I know my invitation was very presumptuous, but after hearing what Mr. Cheng Qian said just now, you don’t seem to go back to your original company. So instead of looking for a new company, I think it’s better to stay in Jeko. I can guarantee that you will get the same salary as before. If Mr. Cheng Qian doesn’t believe it, I can write a check for you immediately.

After Zhou Ming finished speaking, he took out a check book from his pocket and wrote a check worth one million and handed it to Cheng Qian: Is this enough?

Looking at the string of zeros on the check in front of me, although maybe it might be a blank check, Cheng Qian had a premonition that it was indeed true.

Thinking of this, Cheng Qian looked up at Zhou Ming and asked: Why

Because I need someone who knows that colleagues from Jieke Company also have strong business capabilities to help me, and Mr. Chengqian, I believe you are the person I am looking for.

Zhou Ming said very firmly, and he then asked back to Chengqian: And I believe you are very unwilling to accept it.

Facing Zhou Ming's rhetoric, Cheng Qian was silent. Zhou Ming then continued: Maybe we have not had a deep contact, but I can feel that you are a very motivated and responsible person. When you come to Jieke Company, it is more to be able to expand your ambitions and to make Jieke Company resurrect, not only for this money.

If it is just for money, then I believe that based on your business ability, you can find those big companies, so that you may easily get a bonus of 100,000 or 200,000 yuan in one month, and then get a higher salary or even share dividend by upgrading to a higher position.

Zhou Ming paused and continued: But you didn't choose this, but chose to come to Jeko. I don't know how the headhunter talked to you, and I don't know how the board of directors of Jeko looked at you, but in my eyes, you are a hungry wolf who longs to prove yourself. You won't show off how much food you have hunted. You will only prove to everyone that you can defeat a lion and be the most powerful ruler on the grassland.

And Chengqian, you have been in Jeko for a month, which means you have worked hard for a month. No one knows how much effort you have put in this month. So, are you willing to give up now?

Zhou Ming stared at Cheng Qian's eyes and asked the last question: So do you want to admit your failure like a coward, or do you follow me and become the hero who saves Jeko

A coward or a hero
