Chapter 136 The Association
Ever since he heard Ye Jiayi mention that corporate capital has shifted from reality to reality, Guan Yuntian began to examine the business behavior of Changda Group for more than a year. In addition to revolving around capital, the industry has completely stood still, with no new projects and industries.
Any plan. Guan Yuntian believes that this phenomenon is not a good thing for a manufacturing company determined to inherit.
However, to find new economic growth points for enterprises, they must find suitable new projects, which is by no means easy.
Ye Jiayi suggested that Changda Group should establish its own R&D institution. In her opinion, a company without R&D capabilities, no matter how large it is, is still a giant without muscle and soul. On the one hand, such a company has poor risk resistance.
, once a crisis occurs, companies are prone to collapse. In addition, without their own core technology, companies will always be controlled by others, and it is impossible to produce high value-added products. All companies in the world that have been inherited for more than a hundred years have strong R&D capabilities.
Creativity.
Guan Yuntian himself has a high degree of education, and he is very interested in Ye Jiayi's suggestions, but to form a R&D team with a certain level, staffing is crucial.
"It's not enough to have staff, you also have to be mentally prepared for many years of ineffectiveness. Think about it, the people in the R&D team all have high academic qualifications, and the salary must not be low, otherwise you won't be able to recruit people. In addition, we
They all have received higher education and have some understanding of the laws of technology research and development. Research and development is a long-term investment, and you cannot ask R&D personnel to provide you with benefits in the short term." Ye Jiayi said.
"That's no problem. I will never do something stupid like killing a goose to lay eggs. Let's put forward a framework now and discuss with Mr. Xue of the Human Resources Department how to recruit personnel, as well as salary and benefits, etc." Regarding the things that are beneficial to the development of the company,
Guan Yuntian has always been very supportive of the suggestion.
In her early work experience, Ye Jiayi had seen Dow Chemical's R&D organization and had some experience in this area. She further suggested: "Because we are not good at the composition and management of R&D organizations, it is best to recruit one or two people first."
I think it is more professional for the slightly famous R&D leaders to set up the organization and recruit all kinds of talents needed. Let them do this work."
"Yes, first recruit one or two such leaders, and leave the task of establishing the organization and recruiting personnel to them. Our role is only to cooperate and serve."
"It's better if we don't interfere in some tasks. If we interfere, it will not only have no good effect, but will also cause chaos. My point of view is that laymen should never interfere with the affairs of experts. Wouldn't it be more worry-free?"
"That's the truth. In the future, Changda Group's R&D institution will definitely have a free and relaxed working environment." Guan Yuntian likes to work in an unfettered environment and he will put himself in others' shoes.
After Guan Yuntian and Ye Jiayi determined the general requirements for the leader of the R&D organization, they asked the Human Resources Department to search for suitable candidates across the country, and they ignored the rest of the work.
In Guan Yuntian's view, the group company's establishment of a research and development institution is a long-term and necessary task, but for the current lack of new economic growth points faced by Changda Group, it is still difficult to quench the immediate thirst.
Near the end of the year, the county organized a social gathering for entrepreneurs in the county. The invitation letter had already been sent to Guan Yuntian's desk. Unfortunately, Guan Yuntian didn't like to show up in public and was not interested in such activities at all. In fact, this way
The county has organized the event several times in a row and sent invitations to Changda Group every year. Guan Yuntian has never attended even once.
office
Lin Nan, the director of the office, reminded, "Have you thought about the consequences of rejecting the county's invitations again and again?"
"I have never thought about the consequences. Let me tell you." Guan Yuntian didn't care.
"People will say behind your back that you are unkind, or even say that you are arrogant, leaderless, etc." Lin Nan said seriously.
"Seeing as what you said is so serious, does it matter? I have great respect for any leader. There is no such thing as a leader!"
"No matter how good you think in your heart, you don't act this way. People only know that Guan Yuntian has rejected the county's invitations time and time again. Don't complain. That's the truth."
"Do you think life is tiring? It's really inexplicable that an event that you volunteer to attend will cause so many comments if you don't participate."
"I suggest you join. It is said that the new county magistrate will also attend the party this year. I heard from my dad that this party is actually very simple. It means that the heads of relatively large enterprises in Fuyuan County gather together to discuss with the county government
The leaders will meet, the main leader will say a few words, and then everyone will have a meal, and that will be it.”
Guan Yuntian did not express his position, but just nodded. After Lin Nan left, he took the invitation letter to Ye Jiayi's office and said, "Here, you can go and participate."
"What?" Ye Jiayi took the invitation and looked at it, "You can pull it off. They are inviting the main person in charge of the company. The invitation letter will be sent directly to you. What's going on if I go to participate?"
"I really don't like to attend such occasions. As the general manager, you can still represent Changda Group Company." Guan Yuntian said seriously.
"You don't like that kind of occasion, do you think I do?" Ye Jiayi rolled her eyes at Guan Yuntian.
"Oh, it seems difficult to ask you to do something!" Guan Yuntian said with a smile, picked up the invitation letter on the table, shook his head and turned around to leave Ye Jiayi's office.
At nine o'clock in the morning the next day, according to the address on the invitation letter, Guan Yuntian asked the driver to take him to the Xinyue Hotel, which was the meeting place of the sorority. He found the conference room on the third floor. After seeing the situation, he came
It's not too late, but it's not too early either. The venue is brightly lit, the staff is adjusting the microphone on the stage, and people in groups are talking to each other. After greeting several bosses he knows, Guan Yuntian leaves the podium.
I sat down by myself at a seat far away by the window.
On the one hand, Guan Yuntian is a low-key person and does not like to show off. In addition, the Changda Group is very large. Many bosses know Guan Yuntian, but it is not easy to take the initiative to talk to him because other bosses are afraid that they will not be able to climb up.
A few minutes later, General Manager Lin Xueming of Fuyuan County Flour Mill walked into the venue. Several bosses came up to greet him, and Lao Lin shook hands one by one.
At this time, Guan Yuntian also heard Lin Xueming's voice. He turned around and quickly stood up. Lao Lin was Guan Yuntian's nobleman. Several loans in the initial stage of Changda Company were all made by Lin Xueming in the name of Fuyuan Flour Mill.
Guan Yuntian's guarantee was also due to the several crises faced by Changda Company at that time, and Lao Lin personally came forward to find friends to help resolve them. Although Lao Lin's daughter Lin Nan played a big role in it, Guan Yuntian's kindness will never be forgotten in his life.
Will forget.
"Uncle Lin, are you here too?" Guan Yuntian strode over and took the initiative to extend his hands to shake Lao Lin's hand.
"Because I am the person in charge of a local state-owned enterprise, I participate in this sorority every year. After all, the leaders still have to give face. If I remember correctly, is this your first time to participate?" Lin Xueming said.
"Even this time, if it weren't for Lin Nan's repeated persuasion, I wouldn't have wanted to come. To be honest, I'm not interested in this kind of occasion."
"Hey, I am such an old man, and I am not interested in this kind of occasion. The key is that there are only a few famous business owners in Fuyuan County. If they don't attend, the leaders will be embarrassed. In fact, I am here just to give them a
To save face, listen to them say a few words and have a meal, it’s that simple.” Lin Xueming has been deeply involved in the local political and business circles for many years and is quite experienced in dealing with people.
"Yeah, so at Lin Nan's urging, I had no choice but to bite the bullet and come here."
Lao Lin patted Guan Yuntian on the shoulder, "You're right here, isn't it just a waste of half a day? Yuntian, I'll go over there and say hello, and come back later. How about we sit together at noon?"
"Okay, Uncle Lin, you go and do your work first." Guan Yuntian returned to his original seat.
At this time, county leaders also entered the venue one after another. Deputy County Elder Song, who was in charge of industry, waved to Guan Yuntian from a distance as a greeting.
Through the window, Guan Yuntian looked out aimlessly. At this time, a person came from behind him and said, "Mr. Guan is so leisurely. Did I disturb you from enjoying the beautiful scenery outside the window?"
Hearing the voice, Guan Yuntian turned around suddenly. He was startled at first, and then said: "Are you----? Oh, County Magistrate Liu, hello!" He immediately stood up and took the initiative to extend his hands to shake Magistrate Liu's hand.
County Magistrate Liu is the deputy magistrate in charge of agriculture in Fuyuan County. They met for the first time at the opening ceremony where Guan Yuntian donated money to build the road. They both left a good impression on each other. But Deputy Magistrate Liu is in charge of agriculture.
There was no connection with Guan Yuntian's Changda Group. Since then, the two have not been able to get together again, so when I looked back just now, Guan Yuntian was still somewhat unfamiliar.
"Mr. Guan, please take a seat. I didn't expect you to come." Deputy County Magistrate Liu sat down on the chair next to Guan Yuntian.
"Hey, I really can't put it down. To be honest with County Magistrate Liu, I'm not used to this kind of situation." Although he didn't have a close relationship with him, maybe he felt that he had a good temper with Deputy County Magistrate Liu, so Guan Yuntian didn't hide it when he spoke.
Deputy County Magistrate Liu smiled and said, "Yes, this kind of occasion is mainly a formality and is actually of no use. However, this is also what government departments should do."
"County Magistrate Liu, has it been almost two years since we last met? You are usually busy with work, so I can't disturb you, but you passed by our company and did not go to Changda Company to rest and help us guide you.
Guiding the work?" Guan Yuntian opened his mouth to say polite words on the scene.
"The business of Changda Group is traditional manufacturing. I, a person who has been engaged in agriculture for half my life, how dare I guide the work! Stop, I am busy and you are busy. How many times have I passed by the road in front of the gate of Changda Group? It's really
I wanted to go in and visit you, but then I thought, it would be better for everyone to go about their own business without disturbing you."
"County Magistrate Liu is too polite. If you go to Changda Group, we will only feel honored and will not be disturbed at all."
"Mr. Guan, has Changda Group done any new projects in the past two years?"
"It's a shame to say that we have wasted our time in the past two years, standing still and failing to live up to the expectations of our leaders."
