Chapter 447 Old friends remain the same
Li Dongling stayed in the port city for a long time. When he returned to Hanxi, it was already the New Year's Eve. When he passed by the towns from the provincial capital to Pingyang, he saw what he saw It's all decorated with lanterns and festoons.
On the second day after Li Dongling came back, it snowed heavily in Hanxi, but it was very hot inside Dongling Hi-tech. Today is the day when Dongling Hi-tech holds its annual meeting. After today, everyone except the technical department Some of our R&D projects require overtime work due to R&D time issues and require rotational rest after the year.
The remaining departments include Feiyan Technology, Dongxin Semiconductor, Dongfang Optoelectronics, Shenzhou Storage and other departments under Dongling Hi-tech, including Torch Group, Focus Media, Oriental Express, etc. that are closely related to Tangling Hi-Tech. The company will also be on vacation starting today.
The whole Binh Duong is covered with a layer of silver, but early in the morning, road crews began to clear the heavy snow. Binh Duong Department Store, Huanghe Clothing Wholesale Market and other famous retail malls in Binh Duong were even more so early in the morning. There was a long queue in front of the door.
By this year, if the Oriental Times Mall can be completed and renovated and can start operations, it is estimated that the retail situation in Pingyang and even Hanxi will be even more popular.
In the days leading up to the Chinese New Year, shopping malls all over the country are basically crowded with people, but this scene is especially true in Binh Duong, because Binh Duong now has enough jobs, guaranteed salary, and money. , naturally gave birth to Binh Duong’s consumer market, and even Binh Duong’s consumption power is stronger than that in the provincial capital!
This year, with the continued expansion of Donglin High-tech Industrial Park, Feiyan Technology is recruiting, Torch Group is starting construction, Focus Media is recruiting sales and customer service personnel, and Oriental Express is recruiting logistics and express delivery personnel. .
Including the Binh Duong Cargo Airport, Binh Duong Animal Park, Binh Duong Town Road, Han Xi Software Park, New Oriental Binh Duong Campus and other projects that are currently in full swing in Binh Duong, the demand for jobs in Binh Duong has been pushed to the extreme!
Now in Pingyang, it is no longer a question of whether you can find work, but that there are simply not enough manpower. So now, in Pingyang department stores and stores on the street, you can see job recruitment within a few steps. tips.
If you go to the area dominated by Tanglin Hi-Tech Industrial Park, even if the Chinese New Year is about to come, there will be companies setting up booths with recruitment signs in the cold weather. A large part of these stalls are following Tanglin Hi-Tech. Donglin High-Tech Industrial Chain Parts Company, which settled in Binh Duang, put it out, and they also need manpower.
Especially those who are most afraid of being short of manpower after the New Year. As long as they sign up and wait until the New Year is over, they can go directly to work. If they are willing to sign the contract in advance, they can even get some small gifts. , it can be seen how short of manpower it is now.
In fact, companies in the Tanglin Hi-Tech industrial chain, just as they were preparing for the New Year holiday, received an announcement from the Logistics Department of Tanglin Hi-Tech, requesting all the companies in the industrial chain to Reserve enough space for production capacity!
Donngling Hi-Tech Parts Industry Chain Company is very familiar with this rhetoric. It is obvious that after the Chinese New Year, Dongling Hi-Tech may launch new products!
This makes various parts manufacturers feel happy and worried. The happy thing is that there will be no shortage of orders next year. The worrying thing is that the orders may be burst again, and then there may be no shortage of orders at all. Unable to meet Dongling Hi-Tech's orders, we can only expand manpower as much as possible.
Now, not only people from Hanxi Province but also surrounding provinces and cities come to Pingyang to work, there are even people from outside Shanhaiguan who come here to look for jobs.
“Director Song!”
“Mr. Song!”
As in previous years, this year’s annual meeting of Dongling Hi-Tech can also bring family members. Song The runner-up also brought his wife and children to the auditorium of Tanglin Hi-Tech Industrial Park where the annual meeting was held.
Song Yajun greeted people he knew well and saw in the auditorium that the scale of this year’s annual meeting was more than double that of last year. The entire auditorium was even full. It can be seen that last year , how much the scale of Tanglin Hi-Tech has expanded.
Song Yajun found the table in the production department. Tao Zhiliang, who was also in the production department, was also here with his wife Zhu Jing and their two children.
"Old Tao, it's time for my daughter to go to college next year. Which college are you going to?"
After sitting down, Song Yajun started talking with Tao Zhiliang, and his wife also talked with Zhu Jing and other wives of the head of Dongling Hi-tech's production department started to have a quarrel with each other.
On such occasions, the first thing that usually comes up is the topic of children. On weekdays, what Tao Zhiliang shows off the most to Song Yajun and the others is his little cotton-padded jacket. As for the one who is tinkering with his cell phone, Quanzi, who was waiting for his meal, was ignored by Tao Zhiliang.
“Binh Duong University?”
Hearing Tao Zhiliang's words, Song Yajun was also surprised. When he talked about his children with the supervisors at Dongling High-Tech, most of them wanted to be admitted to Hanxi University and be alumni of Li Dongling. He directly said that they would go to Pingyang University. , still rare.
"When children are older, they have their own ideas. You can't force them, just let nature take its course!"
Tao Zhiliang looked like a woman who doesn't want to stay in the middle, and his little boy listened to him. The cotton-padded jacket just rolled her eyes. She had talked with Tao Zhiliang and his wife that day and told her why she chose Pingyang University. She was betting that Pingyang University would have greater opportunities for employment and graduate studies in the future. They both agreed. , but now Comrade Lao Tao is duplicity.
Song Yajun took a look at the Tao family and felt that there seemed to be something fishy here. But he knew how much hardship Tao Zhiliang had to endure for the sake of the whole family. It was not reported that his daughter went to college. But frustrated or something. Without getting too involved, Song Yajun told another story and said to Tao Zhiliang, "Old Tao, I heard that the company plans to implement new production management next year and implement production and sales, including modern electronics in cooperation with suppliers. Information management.”
"Yes," Tao Zhiliang was also slightly worried, "I also heard that after the supervisor position, there will be assessment and upgrade. I don't know what will happen!"
Computerized office, and With the emergence of the Internet, in fact, the first thing to change was the company, which slowly began to change its original production and sales models.
From the beginning of the new year, Dongling Hi-Tech will also begin to implement electronic management, gradually linking production, sales, inventory, as well as industry chain suppliers and retailers to maximize efficiency. Reduce costs and improve efficiency.
This aspect in China is still in its infancy, but Tanglin Hi-Tech’s opponents are not only domestic rivals, but also a number of overseas giants.
Those overseas giant companies are constantly improving production capacity, quality, efficiency, converting inventory rates, constantly improving their control over the supply chain and sales channels, trying their best to reduce costs and improve product competitiveness.
Originally, the brand influence and foundation of Donglin Hi-Tech was not as good as those of overseas giants. If the products did not have advantages, they would almost completely fail.
In the past life, Xiyin, a little-known company in China, was a big hit overseas. Its valuation once exceeded 90 billion US dollars, second only to the unlisted ByteDance, Musk’s Speak, OpenAi has become the fourth largest unlisted company in the world with the highest valuation.
The reason why Xiyin is able to compete overseas with fast-moving consumer clothing brands such as Zara, Uniqlo, and Amazon, and is losing ground, is its strong supply chain control.
Different from traditional clothing, which requires designers to guide the trend, Xiyin first based on user big data feedback, then found a designer to design, and finally placed an order with the manufacturer. The samples came out the next day and were handed over to Xiyin. The whole process of sound production only takes seven days...
Although Xiyin’s designers and suppliers are complaining, this model is a digital supply chain system that Xiyin spent a lot of money to transform. , Xiyin and its suppliers can see various data on a large screen every day.
A new product is launched every seven days, and then a hundred are put on the platform. Additional orders are made based on sales volume and user reviews, or the project is cut off. The cycle starts over and over again, and the company continues to create explosive fast-moving consumer clothing products.
This model of course puts great pressure on designers and suppliers. However, Xiyin, which has received mixed reviews, has its main battlefield overseas, that is, using the money of overseas users to sell products to 5,400 domestic companies. Supply chain companies place orders with annual revenue of US$45 billion. Only time will tell whether this is right or wrong.
Donngling Hi-Tech's control over the supply chain does not seek to be as demanding as that of Xiyin in his previous life, but it must be improved. The sales and production departments cannot know each other at all. Control definitely needs to be improved, at least to the level of Nokia, Apple, and Dell!
The annual meeting is about to begin, and dishes are being brought to the table one after another. The annual meeting of Tanglin Hi-Tech is still the same as the first annual meeting. There is no one sitting and drinking the northwest wind, and then listening to the stage. People were beeping and chattering, all sitting at the table with their families and having a big meal.
Of course, a few years ago, the food eaten at Tanglin Hi-tech’s annual meeting, such as roasted lamb, roasted chicken, pork elbows with sauce, etc., was definitely a feast for those who attended the annual meeting, but now, The salaries of employees at Dongling High-tech have begun to increase, especially for Song Yajun and Tao Zhiliang, who are in charge of salary. Eating meat is no longer a problem.
"So, if Cyberport wants to acquire the controlling stake of Hong Kong City Telecom, it will cost a lot of money, right?"
In the auditorium, Li Dongling was also accompanied by Ren Yuefeng, Hu Xian, Chen Tao, Zhang Ao, Gao Peng, etc. A group of Donglin Hi-Tech executives sat together.
After everyone listened to Li Dongling’s movements in the port city, Hu Xian asked Dongling with a headache.
Although through Li Dongling's operation, Cyberport Company has no direct connection with Dongling Hi-Tech, no one would believe it if the two parties were said to have no relationship at all.
“The Yanjing post and telecommunications department, telecommunications companies, and Bank of China Harbor City Company will all help Cyberport. After acquiring Harbor City Telecom, Harbor City will become Tanglin Hi-Tech’s overseas bridgehead!” Li Dongling said.
Ren Yuefeng, Hu Huxian and others looked at each other and knew about this. Li Dongling had already made up his mind, and there was no turning back when he fired his bow. It was useless to say anything at this time. He could only help Li Dongling continue the deal. .
"Thank you for your hard work during this period!" Li Dongling smiled, "How is Dongling High-tech?"
