Chapter 269 How big is the heart

Our Chinese language is very good at summarizing and summarizing.

Often, complex meanings can be expressed using only a few simple words or a concise paragraph.

This allows the wisdom of our predecessors to be passed down through idioms, proverbs, poems, or jingles, and be remembered by our descendants.

But this convenience actually has some downsides.

That is, it will easily make the younger generation feel arrogant and careless about the experience of their predecessors when they should value it.

So much so that although they clearly know these truths, few people can really benefit from them because they don’t seek to understand them thoroughly.

For example, the famous saying in our local business philosophy - "harmony brings wealth" is like this.

In everyone's common understanding, this saying only means that merchants should be kind to their customers.

But in fact, it would be too one-sided if we only emphasize service attitude.

The real meaning of this sentence is much more than that, but it encompasses all interpersonal relationships in business dealings, and we must strive to achieve harmony and balance.

In the same way, the same goes for the saying, "How big a person's heart is, how big his achievements are."

Usually people will understand this sentence to mean that people need to be enterprising and even ambitious.

Basically, it is equated with "how bold a person is, how productive the land is."

But this is not the case. The "heart" in this sentence should contain more content.

For example, people must have empathy, tolerance, fairness, and responsibility...

As for the reason why Ning Weimin and Song Huagui are so close to each other.

Why did Song Huagui treat Ning Weimin so highly and lightly on the consignment matter?

The fundamental reason is that they both understand this very well and are essentially the same kind of people.

They never shy away from their subordinates.

Not only will we try our best to give you generous treatment, but we will also treat you fairly.

If subordinates make mistakes when they are discovered in a timely manner, they are willing to be as tolerant as possible and give them the opportunity to make corrections.

They are even very good at discovering the strengths and talents of their subordinates.

I am willing to give my subordinates more opportunities and more inspiration to help them display their talents and create value.

This is their greatest charm as leaders.

For this reason, they have attracted many loyal subordinates to surround them and are willing to work hard for them.

At the same time, on the other hand, Ning Weimin and Song Huagui also have a strong consensus on how to safeguard the company's interests.

They will never do anything detrimental to the interests of the company for personal gain.

They also cherish and appreciate the opportunity given by Pierre Carton.

This is not only because they know how to be grateful and have the professional ethics of "eating people's salary and being loyal to others".

It's also because they all understand the same truth.

It is one thing for a person to have abilities, but it is another thing to have a stage on which to display his abilities.

So the most interesting thing is that neither of them knows that they both have a very similar habit of settling accounts.

At the end of every month, they each have to calculate the value they have created for the company in private.

They will not be complacent like most people who do less work and get more money.

On the contrary, they will feel at ease only if they are sure that the value they create for the company is far greater than what they take away.

Otherwise, you will feel a kind of mental anxiety.

In short, it is precisely because they are not people who blindly pursue power and ignore their obligations.

True talent will make them more and more congenial, trustful, understanding, and sympathetic to each other as they get along.

They can use a very humane way of doing things to efficiently develop the "PC" clothing business in China and make it prosperous.

But it is a pity that these are the concepts and foundations that our state-owned enterprises have always pursued.

Before the "movement", our state-owned enterprises actually paid great attention to equal emphasis on rights and obligations, and they have always done well in this regard.

But the reality is so ironic, after ten years of experience.

Most state-owned enterprises, from top to bottom, have almost lost this belief.

Although workers in the 1950s and 1960s generally had a sense of responsibility and ownership.

But by the 1980s, not many people really opened their mouths anymore and said something like, "I have to be worthy of the salary the country gives me."

And this has led to the inevitable decline of a large number of companies.

This is true even for the best companies.

Just like the jade factory in Chongwen District.

As the jade production base that has won the most awards in national competitions.

As an enterprise that has had fifteen national-level craft masters, won the National Arts and Crafts Hundred Flowers Gold Cup Award for eight consecutive years, and created a large number of jade carvings that can be called national treasures.

So what?

If anyone can seriously understand the actual situation in the factory now, I am afraid they will be quite disappointed.

This is because the current jade factory cadres are accustomed to acting honestly and according to the spirit of their superiors, accustomed to obeying, but not accustomed to being responsible.

In the end, only the superficial characteristics of a large factory, such as a large factory area, a grand entrance, and complete production equipment, were retained.

As more and more veteran cadres and workers retire, the shortcomings of relying on the unified purchase and sales policy for a long time have begun to emerge.

The Jade Factory has completely become a "rich second generation" who rests on its past achievements and has no intention of making progress and rests on its laurels.

It can be said that the entire factory has lost most of its old spirit of striving for excellence and striving for innovation.

Even in terms of aggressiveness, I'm afraid it can't compare with a small factory like Jinxia Factory that has been struggling.

Don’t believe it, this can be clearly reflected from the mental outlook of the workers who come to work every morning.

Because even when workers arrive in front of the factory gate and hear the bell ringing, no one will be in a hurry to complete the 100-meter sprint.

Although there is a rule in the factory that if you are late for one minute, your bonus will be deducted for one hour, and if you are late for one hour, your bonus will be deducted for one day.

But no one is going to sit in the guard office with a roster of employees, so who cares?

This is a fake rule that exists in name only.

Of course, occasionally factory leaders may be serious about attendance.

But who wouldn’t go to the hospital to make up a leave note?

Hu Jisong, a fifth-level worker in the second workshop, is a very smart person in this regard.

Even though he comes late almost every day, he has special props.

In his hand, he always carried a medicine bag worth less than four taels, held high.

This means that he was working while sick and his late arrival was excusable.

Not only should we not be blamed, but we should be rewarded.

And after he slowly entered the workshop, Hu Jisong always had to grin and twist his body a few times and beat his lower back painfully.

Even his colleagues, who had long been accustomed to it, would only cast him lazy looks of disbelief.

But Hu Jisong still had to do his best.

The basic qualities of an actor.

Only in this way is it more reasonable for him to sit leisurely by the machine, smoke, chat, and be lazy.

He is no better than those young workers who dare to play chess and cards blatantly.

Almost all of those girls and boys joined the factory after their parents retired due to illness.

Going to the countryside to join the queue and being unemployed for a long time made them free and lively.

Not only are they hard-to-repair thorns, but they also have no skills or pursuits.

So if all the bonuses are deducted, they won't care too much. As long as they can have such a happy and mixed salary all day long, they will be quite satisfied.

As for him, when he reaches middle age, his family still has to feed three half-grown children.

Of course, it is better to earn one more point than to earn one less point.

But then again, he can't imitate those old masters who only know how to work with their heads down.

Those people are too honest and kind.

I don’t have any objections to the fact that after a whole day of exhausting work, the bonus is only fifty or sixty for a whole month.

What's more, the efficiency of the factory has not been as good as it was in the past.

Who would be happy with the thought of having a lot of work and a much smaller bonus?

He is not stupid, so he naturally has to use his working strength on the tip of the knife to avoid losing money.

So at present, there are only two situations where Hu Jisong can do his best to get rid of his arms.

The first is to capture the time period when the deputy director of production comes to "inspect".

According to the rules, the deputy director likes to make surprise inspections between about 10 a.m. and 10:30 a.m. and between 2 p.m. and 2:30 p.m.

Therefore, Hu Jisong will use this time to work seriously and show a good working attitude.

The second is the one and a half hour break at noon and the two hours after get off work in the afternoon.

That was when Hu Jisong did private work for Boss Ning and really made money.

He would use his working hours and the factory's machinery to slowly grind the stone.

Then as soon as the break bell rang, we started fucking hard.

Since he was already very proficient at the job, he could really grab two of them every day if he worked quickly, and he could even make four on the weekends.

After a month, earning 200 yuan is not a problem.

That’s almost twice the salary plus bonus!

Therefore, doing such work, Hu Jisong never felt that there was anything to be tired about, he just felt that time passed too fast.

Of course, doing private work is definitely not allowed in the factory.

But the problem is that this kind of thing cannot be stopped, let alone the law does not blame everyone.

In fact, if the entire second workshop is taken together, less than half of the workshop is already doing this.

Except for those timid old masters and unskilled young workers, almost everyone has a share.

Under such circumstances, no one can interfere with the matter, not even the workshop director.

Because cutting off someone's wealth is like killing one's parents.

If he interferes rashly and everyone gets into a rage, who will complete the production tasks of their second workshop for him?

Not to mention that someone might smash the windows of your home at night.

So every time the get off work bell rings at noon.

He watched Hu Jisong and eight or nine other jade carving technicians hand over their rice bowls and meal tickets to their apprentices, and help them go to the canteen to prepare meals.

Then they themselves took out the almost polished stone from the pile of raw materials and started carving it.

The workshop director of the second workshop could only respond with a helpless wry smile and leave quickly, out of sight and out of mind.

These days, it has become common for young people to tease old men and make fun of cadres.

He knew that he was an eyesore, and he wouldn't be able to stay long before he would definitely hear "Who cares about who now? If you don't make money, you won't make it in vain; if you don't make it, you won't make it in vain. The bold ones will be starved to death, and the timid ones will be starved to death. Whoever makes more money

Who is the good one..." and other nonsense that is disrespectful to him.

As for recommending these stone ashtrays to the factory leaders to see if they can be used as new business for the factory.

The workshop director never thought about it.

Even though he knew that every day the factory leaders were urging the innovation workshop to come up with new things.

And he actually thought these things were quite good, especially the ashtray in the city gate tower that he couldn't put down.

But once you come to the jade carving factory to make stone carvings, the boss will definitely think that this is an act of self-destruction.

Secondly, he was also afraid that if the leaders saw these things, it would be obvious that the workers could no longer concentrate on their work and were entirely focused on these evil ways.

Will be even more angry and blame him for poor management.

So, one thing more is better than one thing less.

Anyway, such a big factory can't collapse. Why should he, a small workshop director, worry about it?

Let's just leave it like this, it's best if everyone can live in peace and deal with it one day at a time.
