"What? The net profit of Linghang 001, which is RMB 209,000, is actually RMB 30,000?"
"How did Longxing Group, Kunpeng Company, and Rice Company do it to keep the cost of car manufacturing so low?"
“It’s over, the automobile manufacturing industry is over!”
“It’s a cancer. Pilot 001 is a cancer. Its appearance will set back the automobile for a hundred years. This is a cancer!”
Ma Si Ke did not bear the pressure alone, but shared the collected cost price of Linghang 001 with his "joint partners" so that they could experience his pressure firsthand.
The presidents of foreign car companies who saw the cost price were all on their guard. The cost budget of 178,000 yuan has far exceeded their expectations. It is not an exaggeration to say that none of them can build a coupe with a speed of 2.81 seconds at this price. .
Not to mention the acceleration from 0 to 100 mph in 2.81 seconds. In 2016, coupes that can accelerate from 0 to 100 mph in 2.81 seconds are all luxury cars worth at least one million.
“Baga Ya Road!”
Island country, Honda Group headquarters.
Otaki Kazuki was completely panicked. He originally thought that Longguo could not build high-end cars, so he wanted to put pressure on them by leaving the Longguo market and agree to the conditions proposed by the island country.
But now?
Not only did they make it, but the manufacturing cost was extremely low.
Anyone who knows Japanese cars knows that their main focus is fuel economy and durability, and power is not their main focus.
When the island country was just undergoing industrial upgrading in the 1970s, Japanese cars were not popular in the international market. The reason was that the European and American markets generally liked large-displacement cars, and the exquisite and fuel-efficient Japanese cars were too "too " Pussy”.
However, with the outbreak of the oil crisis in the Middle East, the whole world has fallen into a situation of "no oil available". The concept of fuel saving has gradually attracted attention, and Japanese cars focusing on fuel saving have been able to enter the international market.
To this day.
Fuel saving is still the main direction of Japanese products.
Saving fuel means saving costs. Nowadays, the ultra-low car cost of Pilot 001 not only competes with Japanese cars from the root, but also challenges the manufacturing industry of island countries.
“What should I do?”
Otaki Kazuki was completely anxious.
This is the first time he feels anxious about the sales of Japanese cars. The new energy vehicle market is being shuffled too fast.
Not only him, Mitsubishi Group, Nissan Motor Group, Toyota Group and other Japanese companies are also suffering from sales anxiety.
No one expected that the cost of a standard version of Linghang 001 was only 178,000. This was no longer a price war that could be won, and we had to find a new way out.
At the same time.
Island FSA Financial Department.
Saitoi seems to have aged more than ten years, sitting in the office in a daze.
He couldn't even imagine that Longxing Group, Kunpeng Company and Rice Company had actually completed industrial upgrading and created high-end coupes as Longguo companies.
His previous strategies all failed.
He was silent for a long time, and finally made up his mind. He took out his mobile phone, found the number of the president of the Bank of China of the island country, and dialed it directly.
“Dudu——”
After the busy tone, the call was connected.
"Saito-kun looking for me?"
Saitoi didn't waste any time and extended an invitation: "Find a place to chat. We must take countermeasures."
"..."
The person on the other end of the phone was silent for half a second.
He did not rush to answer, but asked: "Why is it so sudden? Is it possible that it has come to that point?"
"Yes." Saitoi said bluntly without denying it. : "The cost of Linghang 001 is 178,000, which is far lower than the cost of building a car for our company. In other words, we may permanently lose the Dragon Kingdom market."
Cars are the economic pillar of the island country. , Longguo is its largest consumer market, and the emergence of the Pilot 001 car is undoubtedly a seven-inch hit.
The person on the other end of the phone was silent for a few seconds, and finally made up his mind: "I'll call everyone on, and we'll discuss how to deal with the future situation."
"As soon as possible."
Saitoi urged.
Although the Nikkei 225 Index has stabilized recently, in fact, there has been an undercurrent surging underneath. Capital, led by Longxing Group, is watching with covetous eyes, waiting for the moment when flaws are revealed.
Not only are the island countries feeling anxious, but also Western countries across the ocean are feeling anxious about sales, because the automobile market is so important, and it is related to the development of heavy industry.
Germany, which was originally in the "honeymoon period" with the Dragon Kingdom, has to re-examine the relationship between the two at this moment, because the emergence of Pilot 001 will harm the interests of German cars.
You must know that at the national level, there are no permanent enemies or friends.
……
Dragon Kingdom Deep City.
Longxing Group Landscape Base.
Stadium main stage.
Zhang Shaohan heated up the venue with just one song "Invisible Wings" and made everyone immersed in the Longxing Annual Meeting.
Perhaps many people have had the same experience, that is, walking on the street, songs from the roadside speakers enter their ears, and their minds will be in a trance, thinking of past memories.
This is because the human brain does not have the so-called "deletion". Although the memory will gradually become blurred, it does not disappear, but is organized and archived, similar to a library.
When your "will to recall" is very strong, the archived memories will reappear, making you immersed in the scene.
This is also why there are rumors among the people that the human brain will replay life events before death, which is a revolving door. This is not unfounded, but we usually cannot "play back" as we wish.
The song ends.
Zhang Shaohan bowed deeply.
"Welcome to the annual meeting of Longxing Group. I am Zhang Shaohan. How are you? How are you doing?"
As the words fell, tens of thousands of spectators were present, Even the viewers in the live broadcast room responded to her in their own way.
"Okay! Although life is difficult, we still maintain our original aspirations."
"There are too many troubles in growing up. These few minutes of Zhang Shaohan's singing made me feel like I was back in school. What a happy time, carefree, no need to worry about daily necessities. ”
"When I was young, I wanted to grow up. I thought that when I grew up, I would have money, and I could buy delicious food and wear nice clothes every day. But now, I just want to go back to elementary school and read to death."
"Wanting to buy sweet-scented osmanthus and drink together is not like a teenager's trip. I have to say that poetry is the most beautiful expression of emotions regardless of grades."
Since Zhang Shaohan sang the Divine Comedy of Youth, the audience also had Feeling inspired, immersed in it and unable to extricate himself.
Looking at the emotional audience, Zhang Shaohan did not take any souvenirs, because she knew very well that this was the Longxing Group’s annual meeting, not her concert, so she quickly offered her advice:
""Invisible Wings" is a song I released in 2006. It has been 10 years ago. Many fans and friends may have entered college or entered the society. You may be very confused at this stage, with academic pressure, There is pressure from employment and choosing a spouse, but as my lyrics say, we have to grow up in loneliness and believe that the invisible wings behind us can take us out of trouble."
"Okay."
"Let's not talk nonsense. Please give me the warmest applause, Mr. Chen Xing, President and CEO of Longxing Group!"
"Pa bang bang——"
The applause was like rising tide in the sea, spreading rapidly in all directions.
Chen Xing at the backstage entrance felt his eardrums hurt when he heard the thunderous applause. The audience tonight was so enthusiastic.
Of course.
There are also BUFF bonuses for your own employees.
As Chen Xing walked out of the entrance, the spotlight immediately hit him.
He is dressed very formally tonight. The well-tailored suit highlights the width of his shoulders, and when paired with a smoky gray shirt, he is not only less childish, but appears mature and stable, and more reliable. feel.
“Damn it, it’s Mr. Chen!”
“So handsome, Mr. Chen!!!”
“Young young and promising, these four words have come to life. , if I were allowed to get him, even if I was asked to drive a luxury car and live in a villa, I would be willing to do so!”
“Suddenly I feel that the actor I am chasing is too weak. He is less than thirty years old and is in charge of a trillion yuan! Group, this is the star that an eagle-like woman should chase!”
“My reason tells me that I can’t get in touch with this man, but my body tells me that he makes me extremely excited.”
Unlike other company CEOs, Chen Xing is less than thirty years old. Both in terms of figure and appearance, he is in the peak period of a man.
Chen Xing is also a person who has seen strong winds and waves. He was not too moved. He came to the main stage calmly, waved and said hello: "Hello everyone, I am Chen Xing."
Succinct and to the point.
Thunder applause.
Facing the overwhelming applause, Chen Xing continued: "Those present tonight are all internal employees of our group. Thank you for your silent efforts over the past year. Please allow me to call you brothers and sisters. .”
“Pa bang bang——”
The applause continued without stopping.
Faced with this situation, Chen Xing could only raise his voice and continue: "We naturally don't play tricks on our brothers and sisters."
"The mountain of money beside me, I think everyone Everyone has seen it, this is the annual dividend given by the group to the brothers and sisters."
When the words fell, the audience instantly became restless.
“Give it to us?”
"No, cash dividends?"
"We ordinary workers also get it?"
"It should be for headquarters employees. How can we workers get dividends? It would be good to take away a hundred yuan ”
“Yeah, don’t expect too much.”
The audience at the scene are basically factory workers, and they have never seen any precedent of the headquarters paying the workers specifically.
Don’t talk about giving out money, just let the workers be thankful if they don’t deduct money.
The most important thing is that in order to avoid risks and disputes, many factories will choose to cooperate with labor service companies. The workers they recruit are not directly signed by the factory, but dispatched by a third party. If something goes wrong, the labor service company will be responsible .
To put it bluntly.
They are not even considered regular employees.
However, Longxing Group is different. Chen Xing has clearly given instructions that Longxing Group's production factories do not require the intervention of third-party labor companies, and they are responsible for all risks incurred. What are the benefits of doing this?
1. Save costs.
The labor service company is willing to take risks. They are not doing charity. They need a commission, and every worker needs a commission.
2. Improve worker efficiency.
Labor dispatch generally does not pay social security, but directly signed employees need to pay social security.
In other words, as long as a worker works hard until retirement, he can enjoy medical and pension benefits, and does not have to worry about having no money to spend when he gets old, or having no money to see a doctor.
With welfare protection, workers will work harder.
3. Manage and control risks.
News about labor dispatch companies getting away with money often happens. Once it happens, it will be a huge loss to Longxing Group. After all, according to the size of 10,000 workers, one time getting away with money may be over 100 million. loss.
For various reasons, Chen Xing would rather spend more money than have a labor service company get involved in the daily operations of the factory.
At present, his choice is normal.
While other factories often report wage arrears and third-party labor dispatch companies run away, Longxing Group's factories are firmly established in Diaoyutai and have become a holy place for many workers.
When the on-site workers felt that they did not have their share of the money, Chen Xing looked at several factory leaders not far from the stage and said:
"Just relying on me to distribute the money, I'm afraid it's a little slow in efficiency, Zhou Zhaoji, Yang Minshuo, Zhang Heting, Yao Nana, Lan Junyi..."
One by one, the names were called, and the senior executives of Longxing Group came on stage one after another.
Chen Xing glanced at them and said in a deep voice: "There are 14,000 brothers and sisters coming to the scene tonight. I will give you one hour to deliver the 500 million in cash to them."
The words fell.
On the scene, the whole network exploded.
“Isn’t it real hair?”
“Mr. Chen is not joking?”
"Can workers also receive dividends?"
Under the questioning gaze of everyone, Longxing Group executives such as Zhou Zhaoji, Yang Minshuo, Zhang Heting, Yao Nana, Lan Junyi, etc. have begun to name names and asked their subordinate supervisors to lead the team on stage .
When the first batch of workers who received their dividends came to power, they realized belatedly that the registration of the group member list some time ago meant this.
"Ge Dajin, you are the team that won the most performance awards last quarter. You are also the team with the fastest efficiency in assembling mobile phones and the best quality control. There are 20 people in total including the team leader and team members. Your year-end bonus It’s 10,000 yuan per person.”
“Thank you, Director Yang.”
“Thank you, Mr. Chen.”
Ge Dajin is a middle-aged man who looks honest and honest. , the moment he took over 200,000 yuan in cash, everyone was laughing from ear to ear.
10,000 yuan!
This is 10,000 yuan for nothing!
According to the current purchasing power, 10,000 yuan is enough for a family’s basic living expenses for half a year. How can Ge Dajin be unhappy?
"Work hard and buy some new year's goods for your family during the New Year." Chen Xing said with a smile.
“Thank you Mr. Chen, our factory is the factory with the best welfare benefits I have ever worked in. I will work harder in the future.”
“Well, more work, more reward.”
After a brief conversation between the two, Ge Dajin stepped down with 200,000 in cash.
When the team leaders of each group returned with cash, the team members were shocked. They had never expected that Chen Xing would be so generous, with as little as 3,000 yuan per person and as much as 10,000 yuan per person. , this is a windfall.
The netizens who watched the money distribution in the live broadcast room were completely jealous, and the number of barrages increased as never before.
"No! Are you really going to give out money?"
"It's too simple and rude. I just give out money directly without drawing cakes. Will Mr. Chen accept winter vacation workers? I want to Come and work!”
“If you don’t understand, just ask if a technical secondary school can enter the factory of Longxing Group. I’ll wait online. It’s quite urgent.”
“I’ll look at other people’s bosses. After looking at my bosses, I can only say that not all of them are entrepreneurs.”
"Looking for tips on how to get started at Longxing Group!"
For workers, the best incentive is not chicken soup, but real money.
Chen Xing’s on-site dispatch and improvement of the welfare system have silenced other factory bosses who silently watched the live broadcast. No wonder Longxing Group has become an industry benchmark. They treat employees in a very unambiguous manner.
Perhaps Chen Xing would not have thought that he only formulated welfare in accordance with the law, but unintentionally promoted the formulation of factory welfare standards.
……
And on the other side.
Fengtian City.
Linghang Automobile Northern Factory.
Since the headquarters of Longxing Group is in Shenzhen, and the northern factory of Linghang Automobile is in the northeast, one in the south and the other in the north, the workers here naturally cannot participate in the annual meeting of Longxing Group.
But Chen Xing did not forget them, but asked Rebus to hand out red envelopes on his behalf.
"Jia Shaocheng, 5,000 yuan."
"Li Tianfeng, 5,000 yuan."
"Qiu Dunming, 7,000 yuan."
Due to semi-automation, the northern factory has only 900 workers , the bonus red envelopes are distributed very quickly.
While handing over the cash, Rebus kept encouraging the workers: "The Chinese New Year is coming soon. After the Spring Festival, we will come back and work hard."
"Okay, Mr. Lei , we will definitely come back and work hard with you.”
“Yes, thank you to the group for the year-end bonus.”
“Thank you to Longxing Group, thank you to Rice Company, and thank you to Kunpeng Company. Let us also experience the feeling of receiving a year-end bonus. "
"Not to mention, it is the first time to receive it."
The workers are all happy. This money is so great for them. It might be a child’s tuition, or a family’s half-year expenses.
The news that Longxing Group distributed money to its subordinate factories also reached the ears of people from all walks of life, causing quite a stir.
Wang Fang, who was far away in the imperial capital, heard the news and couldn't help but put down his pen and said: "Are you saying that Chen Xing gives large bonuses to workers?"
"Yes, mayor, every day The starting salary is 5,000 yuan per person, and I heard that Longxing Group does not engage in labor dispatch, but adopts a direct signing model.”
The secretary responded quickly.
When Chen Xing signed a bet with the Imperial Capital, she felt that this man was extraordinary, but she really didn't expect to act like this.
Other group factories treat their workers as if they only have labor force, and their benefits and benefits can be reduced as much as possible.
But what about Chen Xing?
Actually doing direct signing!
Direct signing from the factory means that you are obliged to pay social security for the workers. Wang Fang’s eyes flashed with jealousy without concealment and said: "It is really cheap in the deep city. With such a company in charge, it is difficult for the economy to take off. . ”
If possible, she would really like to lure Longxing Group to the imperial capital, but it is impossible even if she thinks about it. After all, Shencheng is not a vegetarian, and people will try their best to retain them.
Not only Wang Fang is envious, but also the leadership teams in other cities are envious, because there are very few companies like Longxing Group, let alone Longguo, even in the whole world.
In Singapore, Wang Shan, who had been paying attention to Chen Xing, saw this scene and couldn't help but give a thumbs up and said: "Good boy, I saw you right. The company spontaneously pays the workers. This is to a certain extent. It can stimulate consumption and make the domestic economy more prosperous. ”
In an environment where consumption is downgraded, it is not advisable for the state to issue money, which will increase the inflation rate, but it is different for enterprises. Income from labor.
This is like the difference between court disaster relief and work-for-work relief. The former can only solve urgent needs, while the latter can solve work problems and make consumption more secure.
In fact, the country has been promoting work-for-relief. With the advent of the era of large-scale infrastructure construction, how many migrant workers have been supported?
If major infrastructure construction is not carried out, the existing jobs will not be able to meet the needs of the population.
......
It took a full hour for the 500 million cash to be delivered to the workers. This simple and crude method won Chen Xing unanimous praise.
As the money shines, Chen Xing, standing on the main stage, smiles and narrates: "2015 is a turning year for Longxing Group. We not only launched Longxing A1, Longxing X3, Geek X2, Brilliant X2, Tianyu X1 and other mobile phones have also successfully transformed Longxing Technology Company into Longxing Group, achieving multinational business."
"The growth of the group is inseparable from everyone's efforts. We also uphold our original intention and give you this year-end bonus.”
"Bah bang bang——"
The applause at the scene was like thunder, continuous.
The worker audience holding banknotes wanted to smash their palms to pieces at this moment. Big leaders like Chen Xing who love to give out money are their favorite.
After a two-second pause, when the applause subsided slightly, Chen Xing continued: "In 2016, we launched Linghang 001, a civilian coupe jointly developed by us, Kunpeng Company and Rice Company. , will also bring more types of vehicles in the future."
Speaking of this, he changed the subject and said: "By the way, I believe everyone has also seen the joint complaint letter, said eighteen friendly car companies. We are disrupting the market with low prices, trying to create a monopoly and then raising prices.”
“I would like to take this opportunity to refute a rumor, that is, Pilot 001 has enough profits. Since there is a net profit, how can it be regarded as a monopoly? ?”
As soon as Chen Xing finished speaking, the audience, including those in the live broadcast room, were filled with indignation and spoke for Pilot 001.
"Well said, having a net profit does not mean suppressing a monopoly. Even if the price is low, it is at most dumping. Friends and businessmen are purely jealous."
"Support Mr. Chen in suing them for slander! ”
“I am used to high prices and low configurations, but now I have low prices and high configurations. How is the quality of Linghang 001? Can we not know? ”
"That's right."
The audience at the scene spoke loudly for Linghang 001, not because they just took the money, but because they really felt that Linghang 001 was different from other vehicles in that it truly served ordinary people. .
Chen Xing had obviously anticipated the audience's attitude. He lowered his hand and said calmly: "We reserve the right to pursue the slander of our friends, but we will mention this matter tonight. , not to complain about them, but I want to announce something.”
“That is related to solid-state batteries, super motors, and high-voltage platform technologies. We are willing to provide convenience for new car manufacturers. We will make the pie of the new energy vehicle market bigger and bring a qualitative breakthrough to Longguo’s manufacturing industry. This is what I want to say.”
Chen Xing never thought that one company would be the only one. What he wants to do is diversify, let Longguo Automobile get rid of low-end, and hand out his business card.
Of course.
He also has his own selfish motives.
That is to use new power car companies to quickly reshuffle the world car market and make fuel vehicles a thing of the past.
As long as Longxing Group maintains its leading position in solid-state lithium batteries, other friendly car companies will work for them.
When Wang Fu, the boss of BYD, heard that Chen Xing personally said that he could authorize patents, he quickly gave a thumbs up and praised: "This is the pattern. No wonder Chen Xing is able to prosper. The emotional man is aiming at the international market." Market.”
