Chapter 135 WPG0134: The word ‘profit’ is written all over the words! 154K【Please subscribe】
After having breakfast in the cafeteria, the father and son drove to the R&D center again.
Although the new factory and R&D center of Wugentian Pharmaceutical Group are in the same large area as Zhaoyushan Industrial Center, because the new factory was built later, it is not in the same area as the R&D center.
The distance between the two is about 500 meters. If you are walking, it may take seven or eight minutes if you walk slower, and three or four minutes if you walk faster. It is not too far away.
When An Huchun and An Wuyang arrived at the R&D center, the R&D center looked deserted except for two security personnel.
There were already four cars parked in the open-air parking lot, which were obviously the vehicles of the four remaining employees.
An Huchun stopped the car and waited for An Wuyang to stop the car as well. He said hello, "I have notified the four remaining staff to go to the small conference room. Let's go there now."
"Okay." An Wuyang responded.
After a while, the two father and son arrived at the small conference room, where four people were already waiting.
When An Huchun and An Wuyang walked in, the four of them stood up to say hello.
"Director An, good morning."
"It's always good, Xiao An."
An Wuyang responded while quickly looking at the four people.
Two of them are middle-aged, and the other two look relatively young, but An Wuyang estimates that they should be close to thirty years old?
"Wu Hao, let me introduce you." An Huchun began to introduce An Wu Hao.
"This one is T2 senior technical expert Zheng Bohong, and next to him is T3 technical expert Cheng Xiang. The two of them are from the [Trauma Scar Repair R&D Group]." An Huchun introduced.
The annual salary of T2 senior technical experts is 2 million, and the annual salary of T3 technical experts is 1 million.
According to SK2's poaching quotation, T3 technical experts can get an annual salary of 6 million if they choose to change jobs, and T2 senior technical experts can get an annual salary of tens of millions. These two people didn't change jobs?
Why?
"This one is T5 senior technical engineer Li Zhengkai, and next to him is T6 technical engineer Zhu Yongheng. They are from the [Bitter Orange Flower Essential Oil R&D Group]." An Huchun added.
Is there anyone in the Neroli Essential Oil R&D team who hasn’t escaped?
This.
Is it reasonable?
An Wuyang asked bluntly, "Gong Li, Gong Zhu, I'm curious, why didn't you change jobs?"
The turnover rate at the R&D center of Wugengtian Pharmaceutical Group has reached as high as 90.9%, so An Wuyang naturally discussed the issue of job-hopping openly and honestly.
An Wuyang added, "According to the excellent quality of the Ningzhi Ruoxue series of products, the premiums those well-known cosmetics brand companies will give you will only be higher, right?"
Li Zhengkai responded frankly, "Yes, Xiao An's guess is correct."
“In our bitter orange flower essential oil research and development team, there was originally a T8 employee Jia Shiyu. His previous monthly salary was 20,000 yuan. This time, SK2 Company gave him a salary premium of 4 million yuan per year!” Li Zhengkai added.
"Actually, Jia Shiyu had contacted us secretly a long time ago, hoping that Zhu Gong and I would also join the SK2 company, but we just refused." Li Zhengkai added.
An Wuyang became even more curious. The salary premium of the members of the bitter orange blossom essential oil research and development team was so high. Aren't Li Zhengkai and Zhu Yongheng interested?
"What about you?" An Wuyang looked at Li Zhengkai. He only asked half of the question, but the meaning he expressed was very complete.
Li Zhengkai responded, "I actually asked about the salary. My rank shows that the information I have access to in the orange flower essential oil research and development team far exceeds that of Jia Shiyu. The other party is even willing to give me an annual salary of tens of millions."
< br>
"However, I still rejected the other party." Li Zhengkai added.
"There are three reasons." Li Zhengkai explained.
"First, the agreement given by SK2 Company is very strict, including strict confidentiality clauses, non-competition agreements, and gambling-style R&D KPIs. Although on the surface it seems that the annual salary in the past job exceeds 10 million, in fact If you fail to meet the KPI, you may not get the corresponding annual salary," Li Zhengkai elaborated.
SK2 Company is not taken advantage of. If it only spends tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands to poach employees, then there will be no problem.
But if you spend tens of millions of dollars to poach someone, there must be benefits!
After all, no one’s money comes from strong winds.
"Second, in view of the success of the Ningzhi Ruoxue series of products, Director An has decided to upgrade my rank from T5 to T2 senior technical expert, which means I will receive an annual salary of 2 million." Li Zhengkai added.
"Third, Wu Geng Tian and Director An have a good reputation, and the working atmosphere is also very good. I joined Wu Geng Tian as an intern when I was a junior. I like Wu Geng Tian very much, so I am willing to stay in Wu Geng Tian. Work every day." Li Zhengkai added.
An Wuyang listened to Li Zhengkai's three reasons. If it was An Wuyang before, he might refer to the third one. But now, after experiencing the layoffs in the new factory and the poaching incident in the R&D center, An Wuyang's mentality and thoughts have changed.
If you look through the fog and look at the essence of the three reasons given by Li Zhengkai, then two words are revealed in every word - interests!
All reasons are based on weighing the pros and cons and considering the gains and losses!
Isn’t the annual salary of tens of millions offered by SK2 Company bad?
good!
But behind the tens of millions of annual salaries are strict confidentiality clauses and non-competition agreements, and even gambling-style R&D KPIs. These are not good!
After all, confidentiality clauses and non-compete agreements are just small things, but betting on R&D KPIs is a big problem.
How can we guarantee this kind of research and development?
It has been ten years since Li Zhengkai joined Wugengtian Pharmaceutical Group. He joined Wugengtian Pharmaceutical Group as an intern in his junior year and joined the bitter orange blossom essential oil research and development team for more than seven years.
It took more than seven years for the bitter orange blossom essential oil research and development team to finally develop the results.
At least that's how it looks on the surface!
Li Zhengkai worked at Wugengtian Pharmaceutical Group for such a long time to achieve results. Who can guarantee that he can quickly obtain research and development results after joining SK2 Company?
In addition, An Huchun added another bargaining chip and directly promoted Li Zhengkai, who was originally only at T5 level, to T2 level. His original annual salary was only more than 500,000 yuan, but now it suddenly soared to more than 2 million yuan. What else is Li Zhengkai dissatisfied with?
As for the third reason, those are just emotional cards played after considering the interests of the first and second reasons.
The interests have been determined, of course we have to talk about feelings!
After all, people need to save face to some extent.
Zhu Yongheng answered on the side, "Brother Kai and I are in the same situation. I also like Wu Geng Tian very much. I have joined Wu Geng Tian for seven years. After I joined Wu Geng Tian, I worked in the bitter orange flower essential oil research and development team. I can’t bear to leave Wu Geng Tian.”
"Also, thank you, Director An, for raising my rank to the T3 level. From now on, I will also be a guy with an annual salary of one million, and I will be able to speak louder on the Internet in the future." Zhu Yongheng said jokingly. This guy is only 28 years old this year, so his personality is a bit more out-of-the-box. He even likes to compete with keyboard warriors on the Internet.
Now that he has received the blessing of an annual salary of one million, he has already figured out how to fight the keyboard warrior!
Is it easy to make a million dollars a year in this day and age?
If it's on the Internet, it's easy!
In the past, there were people who were just getting started with an annual salary of one million, and later there were DouLe short videos whose hourly wages were over 10,000. The annual salary of a mere one million is in the Internet. Isn’t it enough to have the skills?
However, in the real world, it is very difficult to earn an annual salary of one million, so high that it is almost impossible for ordinary people to reach it.
A certain former richest man, Mr. Ma, once said: If you want to get a million dollars a year, then do what you should do if you made a million dollars last year.
Many people don’t understand this sentence. What should you do with an annual salary of one million?
However, for those who don’t understand this sentence, it actually shows that it is difficult for this person to earn one million per year.
What the former richest man said is that there is a salary ceiling for some jobs, and it is impossible to break through the shackles of an annual salary of one million no matter what.
Similar to common manual jobs and service jobs, it is basically impossible to achieve an annual salary of one million, even if it is placed anywhere in the world, the result is the same.
Taking common accounting work as an example, can the annual salary in this industry reach one million?
The answer is yes.
However, the problem is that it is too difficult to achieve an annual salary of one million in accounting.
The annual income ceiling for an ordinary CPA, that is, a certified public accountant, in Shengqing is about 300,000 yuan. If you are in the four major first-tier cities, it will be slightly higher, but not too high. It is almost difficult to exceed the annual salary of 50 years.
If you want to reach an annual salary of one million through accounting, you must go to the management level, such as becoming a chief financial officer (CFO).
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
But can ordinary people do it?
Another example is the job that "average people" can do with an annual salary of one million - programmer.
In the eyes of ordinary people, being a programmer should be a high-paying job, right?
However, programmers themselves know how difficult it is for them to get an annual salary of one million!
According to data from the National Bureau of Statistics, the proportion of people with an annual salary of one million is only about 5 out of 10,000.
In fact, such statistics are not accurate, because many people without income will not enter the statistical scope.
If you still have no idea how difficult it is to earn a million dollars a year, then think about your relatives and friends. How many of them have reached a million dollars a year?
So for Zhu Yongheng, he thinks that an annual salary of one million is already very powerful, and in fact it is indeed very powerful.
After listening to the words of Li Zhengkai and Zhu Yongheng, An Wuyang understood why they chose to stay at Wugengtian Pharmaceutical Group. Then he looked at Zheng Bohong, a senior technical expert at T2, and Cheng Xiang, a technical expert at T3.
These two old employees who had reached the T2 and T3 ranks in the R&D Center of Wugengtian Pharmaceutical Group, why didn't they choose to change jobs?
"Engineer Zheng, Engineer Cheng, what's your reason?" An Wuyang asked straightforwardly.
When An Wuyang faced Li Shiyu and Zhu Guanghao before, he could be very tactful and indirect in his expressions, even confusing Li Shiyu and Zhu Guanghao, but now he expresses his meaning directly.
This is because An Wuyang has different attitudes when facing different people.
After all, the specific things are different, and the identities of the subjects are different. What's the problem with different attitudes?
Just like a goddess has a different attitude towards dog licking and a male god!
Aren't you also very indifferent when facing people you don't like?
Faced with An Wuyan's inquiry, Zheng Bohong did not answer, but asked, "Mr. Xiao An, do you know how long our [Trauma Scar Repair R&D Team] has been established?"
An Wuyang thought about it carefully before responding, "It must have been a long time ago. I remember that your group was already established when I was very young."
Wugengtian Pharmaceutical Group is older than An Wuyang
If accurate, Wu Gengtian Pharmaceutical Group's age even exceeds An Huchun's age.
An Wuyang often came to Wugengtian Pharmaceutical Group when he was a child. At that time, the R&D center was still living in the headquarters.
Zheng Bohong answered affirmatively, "Yes, our group has been established for a long time, it has been ten years."
"Mr. Xiao An, if you ask me why I stay, I actually have only one reason, and that is that in ten years, the trauma scar repair research and development team has not achieved any effective results, but the group still has no plans to disband." Zheng Bohong responded.
Oops!
This trauma scar repair research and development team has been fishing for ten years?
Zheng Bohong added, "This is not to say that our trauma scar repair research and development team defrauded ten years of research and development funds, but that we are constantly trying and making mistakes, and we are constantly eliminating the wrong results."
"Thank you again, Director An, for trusting us. I really can't think of any company where I can get such treatment." Zheng Bohong sighed.
Cheng Xiang seconded, "Yes, Master and I have the same idea."
"It's not that our trauma scar repair R&D team didn't work hard, it's just that we were unlucky and didn't get results," Cheng Xiang added.
Zheng Bohong added, "Actually, I'm not optimistic about the situation of those guys after they change jobs."
"It is impossible for those large international companies to do charity. I guess their purpose of poaching this time is to trick our group and disrupt our R&D progress." Zheng Bohong speculated.
An Wuyang nodded slightly. Isn't that what those big companies think?
As the saying goes: You make more money than I lose!
Those big companies poaching around Wugengtian Pharmaceutical Group have this idea. If they can't solve the Ningzhi Ruoxue series of products, then they will solve the problem of the people who develop the Ningzhi Ruoxue series of products!
Cheng Xiang hesitated for a moment, then hesitantly said, "Director An, I want to ask, if those brothers who left want to come back, then..."
An Huchun frowned. He was indeed a philanthropist-level capitalist, but it was also difficult for him to accept betrayal.
At least in An Huchun's view, the collective job-hopping of employees in the R&D center this time was a betrayal of Wu Gengtian.
An Huchun answered negatively, "When people make a choice, they should accept the consequences."
"The group has decided to recruit and train new employees." An Huchun added.
In fact, there is one thing An Huchun has not said yet, that is, most of the employees in the R&D center are not indispensable, and Wugengtian Pharmaceutical Group can recruit new people to replace them.
After all, that group of old employees have been working for so long without achieving anything. They can also draw prizes for recruiting new employees. What if they recruit a good one?
An Wuyang was slightly relieved when he heard An Huchun's answer. Originally, he was still worried that An Huchun would show kindness again, but now it seems that An Huchun also has a temper.
An Huchun had a little extravagant hope in front of Li Wenya and An Wuyang. He also hoped that the R&D staff in the R&D center would miss the old friendship and refuse the temptation of high salary. But who knew that the turnover rate in the R&D center was as high as 90.9%?
So no wonder An Huchun also has a temper!
