"Axiu, our factory will raise wages uniformly after the new year. The wages have increased very fast in the past two years. They have almost tripled compared to the previous two years."
Axiu looked at her husband and felt a little speechless. Wasn't it because of the trouble in the past two years?
And what’s the point of raising wages? Did our hamburger prices increase again at the beginning of this month? As wages rise, prices also rise. Although wages rise faster than prices, it’s only a little bit, which is a drop in the bucket.
"The salary has been increased? That's good. Our salary will also increase this month. Now the basic salary has been raised to 300. If you work overtime, you can get 400 Hong Kong dollars in one month."
Axiu said.
"So much? Your cfc's treatment is too good. This year-end bonus of HK$1,000 is too much."
Axiu's husband was immediately shocked when he heard Axiu talk about her salary.
"This is still a small amount. If I had gone to the UK or Japan with other people from the headquarters, I would have earned at least 1,000 pounds in the past six months. Calculate how much Hong Kong dollars this is. We can directly go to the group's bank for a loan.
Bought a thousand-square-foot mansion."
The more Ah Xiu thinks about this, the angrier she becomes. She earned more than 10,000 Hong Kong dollars when she was not allowed to go abroad. But now that her salary has increased, she is so happy that she lost her watermelon and picked up sesame seeds.
"Didn't I consider that there is no one to take care of the child?"
"No one is taking care of you? Your eldest brother's children are already in elementary school, and your parents are still looking after them every day. Our children are so young, can't they help take care of them?"
…

Gong Qigao also received an invitation to a class reunion. After tidying up a bit, he arrived at the agreed gathering place.
"Agong, you are a very busy person now. It is not easy for us to meet you on the ground in Hong Kong Island. I thought you were too busy to attend the class reunion!"
As soon as Gong Qigao entered the door, he was discovered by Qian Fang, a female classmate in his class at the time.
Gong Qigao looked at Qian Fang speechlessly, with a lot of emotions in his heart. It has been more than ten years since he graduated from college. What are you doing to party with nothing to do? They are all people with families and jobs?
"I'm sorry, I'm really busy this year. I haven't been in Hong Kong Island since the beginning of the year. I'm really sorry, everyone."
Gong Qigao greeted these classmates one by one.
"Agong, how are you working at Wheelock now? If you don't like it, you can come to work at Jardine. Jardine has made a lot of salary adjustments this year."
Li Lin, the class monitor in college, said to Gong Qigao with a smile.
Wheelock? Bullshit Wheelock! I have been away from Wheelock for two years at Jade Emperor Group.
Gong Qigao knew in his heart that he, the university monitor, was going to start showing off again, so just be happy.
"Yes, Ah Gong, my monthly salary at Yihe has reached 1,000 Hong Kong dollars now. If you are released, you will be the best in our class. If you come to Yihe, your salary will definitely not be less than mine."
Zhou Jie also said in agreement.
"Thank you, but no need. I left Wheelock two years ago and joined the Jade Emperor Group. Oh, at that time it was still Panda Catering, also known as CFC Restaurant, so this year I have been traveling between the UK and Japan."
Gong Qigao said with a smile.
A monthly salary of 1,000 Hong Kong dollars is really a high salary. My salary is a fraction higher than yours.
"Yuhuang Group, I heard that the wages at Jade Emperor Group are very high. How much is your salary now?"
Zhou Jie asked Gong Qigao curiously.
"The salary of Yuhuang Group is indeed very high. My salary has reached 5,000 Hong Kong dollars. A Gong is now the director of the human resources department of Yuhuang Group. His monthly salary should be more than 20,000 Hong Kong dollars."
Wang Lei, Gong Qigao's best friend in college and who was pressured by Gong Qigao into the Jade Emperor Group, glanced at Li Lin and said.
I am now just a small supervisor in the finance department of the Yuhuang Group, earning 5,000 Hong Kong dollars every month. Ah Gong is the human resources director of the group, and controls the fate of tens of thousands of employees of the Yuhuang Group around the world. More than 20,000 real
Not much.
Jardine Matheson & Co.? The Yuhuang Group can directly buy the four major foreign companies!
"What? You are now the HR Director of Jade Emperor Group? Your salary exceeds 20,000!"
When Li Lin heard this, he felt like ten thousand alpacas were rushing past his head, and his face was swollen. Who in the entire Jade Emperor Group in Hong Kong Island and even in the entire East Asia knew about it?
The human resources director of the Jade Emperor Group and the top managers of the four major foreign companies had to be polite when they met him. Li Lin suddenly felt bitter in his heart.
"Yes, the salary is just over 20,000."
Gong Qigao looked at his buddies and was speechless. Now everyone is no longer in the same circle. Do you need to tell them this?
"By the way, doesn't the Jade Emperor Group give out year-end bonuses every year? How much did you two get?"
Another female classmate asked Gong Qigao and Wang Lei curiously.
"Yes, Ah Gong, Wang Lei, how much did you two receive as year-end bonuses?"
Zhou Jie also asked very curiously.
"I received 10,000 yuan and can live a good year."
Wang Lei said proudly, "My year-end bonus is your year's salary. Are you awesome?"
"My year-end bonus is also 10,000."
Gong Qigao said that he really didn't want to irritate these people because he was afraid that they wouldn't be able to bear the stimulation.
"Wang Lei is 10,000, how come you, as the human resources director of the group, are also 10,000?"
Zhou Jie asked in surprise.
"Yes, both of us are worth 10,000, but the 10,000 I received was in Hong Kong dollars, and the 10,000 that Ah Gong received should be in pounds!!!"
Wang Lei, who has been professionally demolishing Gongqi Gaotai for a hundred years and has never wavered, said with envy.
Everyone was also shocked, this must be too much.
"Good guy, ten thousand pounds? Isn't this equivalent to getting a thousand-square-foot mansion?"
Li Lin said in disbelief that the house he lived in for more than ten years while working was less than a thousand square feet.
"Monitor, you are smart. Ah Gong now lives in Yuhuang Community in Sheung Wan. The senior executives of the group live there. There is no need to buy one. The group directly gave Ah Gong two houses.
I also live in Sheung Wan, but I’m not in the same neighborhood as Ah Gong.”
Wang Lei shrugged and said with a smile.
I have tolerated you for many years, but this time I have given you a chance. Do you really think that you are superior to others in Yihe?
Bah, that’s not bullshit!
The benefits of Jade Emperor Group have refreshed the outlook of countless Hong Kong Islanders for the second time. Whether they are the most ordinary working class people in Hong Kong Island or the executives of other companies in Hong Kong Island, they are deeply shocked. The Jade Emperor Group is too special.
Money.
Just as the people of Hong Kong were shocked by the wealth of the Yuhuang Group, the people of Japan also welcomed the surprise brought to them by the Yuhuang Group.
Yawata Steel and Fuji Steel directly announced publicly on major Japanese newspapers, radio and TV stations that the two steel companies merged, and the new Japanese steel company became the largest steel company in Japan.
The entire Japanese people were shocked by this shocking news. Although various steel companies had long known that the two companies were going to merge, they did not expect that the day would come so quickly. They suddenly felt that a storm was coming and they were under great pressure.
Japan's major conglomerates such as Mitsubishi, Mitsui, Sumitomo, Fuji, Sanwa and the Five Consortiums are also in a hurry.
The five Japanese consortiums competed with each other, restrained and cooperated with each other, so they failed to acquire two steelmaking companies for so many years. In the end, Zhang Zhonghua took advantage of them.
The establishment of Nippon Steel will have little impact on the fundamentals of each consortium, and if the new company is strong, it can deepen cooperation and make money together.
The Jade Emperor Group has made a big splash in East Asia, causing people in Japan and Hong Kong Island to talk about it and giving them a lot more to talk about.
Zhang Zhonghua, who was in Ugly Country, brought his bodyguards to the IBM headquarters in Armonk, New York.
Zhang Zhonghua looked at the huge headquarters building and secretly sighed. It was indeed a company with a market value of hundreds of billions of dollars, and it was very wealthy.
Although Zhang Zhonghua had a lawsuit with IBM last year, he reached a good cooperative relationship with IBM again.
During this period, more than 300 sets of the YH database were sold. The textbooks written by Zhang Zhonghua were also adopted as teaching materials by many universities around the world, and more than 1 million copies were sold around the world. As a computer professional book, it has this
Sales are already very hot.
Walking into IBM's office building, the decoration is not luxurious but it is still very good. For a company that mainly focuses on scientific research, there is no need to be so fancy. Zhang Zhonghua came to the front desk.
"Good morning, Mr. Zhang, welcome to IBM."
Seeing Zhang Zhonghua, the girl at the front desk said enthusiastically.
The receptionist knows Zhang Zhonghua, or many people in IBM know Zhang Zhonghua.
Because Zhang Zhonghua is now an important partner of IBM, he provided a set of compression software for sale to the company for US$250. Since the cooperation was reached, the sales volume has exceeded 500,000 units, and has brought profits to IBM of more than US$100 million.
In the future, whether it is an industrial machine or an ordinary computer, this will be a steady stream of profits. Mr. Zhang is the only one in the world who has sold a piece of software for US$1.5 billion.
"Hello madam, is your president, Mr. Thomas John Watson, here? I have made an appointment with Mr. Watson before."
Zhang Zhonghua asked the girl at the front desk.
"Yes, Mr. Watson is waiting for you upstairs. Please wait a moment and the staff will take you up."
The front desk picked up the phone and started looking for someone to come and receive Zhang Zhonghua. The boss told the administrative department in advance that Mr. Zhang must be received well.
The front desk led Zhang Zhonghua and Zhang Long into a reception room and gave them two cups of coffee.
Zhang Zhonghua was sitting on the sofa and also looked at IBM's company introduction. The dozens of photos above told the development history of IBM and the major honors IBM had received.
IBM invested a huge investment of US$1 million in building the first corporate laboratory in 1932. The research and development of this laboratory throughout the 1930s allowed IBM to gain leadership in technological products.
Throughout the Great Depression, IBM continued to invest in research and development and new products. Its products were better, faster, and more reliable than all other companies, and it won the contract as the exclusive agent for Roosevelt's New Deal accounting projects.
In 1935, IBM's card counting machine products had occupied 85.7% of the domestic market. IBM had accumulated strong financial resources and strong sales and service capabilities due to the large-scale sales of card machines, which laid an important foundation for becoming a dominant player in the computer field in the future.
Base.
During the Second World War, the Allied forces widely used IBM equipment for military calculations, logistics and other military supplies. During the war, IBM also built the Harvard Mark I for the Navy, which was the first large-scale military equipment in the United States.
A large-scale automatic digital computer.
In the 1950s, after the emergence of transistor computers, IBM developed the small data processing computer IBM1401, which used advanced technologies such as transistor circuits, magnetic core memory, and printed circuits to greatly reduce the size of the host computer. Electronic data processing computers completely replaced cards.
Analytical engine.
Subsequently, IBM launched different models of computers in just four or five years, and sold many units in total, which also established IBM's leading position in the computer industry.
"Boss, I didn't expect that IBM has a long history. It actually developed in the hot summer 30 years ago."
Zhang Long pointed to a brochure and said that he did not expect IBM to be so powerful. It had been to Hot Summer as early as the Republic of China.
Zhang Zhonghua looked at the brochure that Zhang Long mentioned, and he didn't expect that IBM and Yanxia have a long history. He really didn't know about this.
In 1934, IBM installed the first commercial processor for Beijing Union Medical College Hospital.
In 1936, IBM's first office in the Far East was established in Shanghai, laying the foundation for its layout and development in the hot summer and even in the entire East Asia region.
In 1937, the first overseas phone call in Yanxia was made from the IBM Shanghai office, which opened up a new way for Yanxia to connect with the world.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Boss, I didn't expect that this Union Hospital is quite powerful and can actually contact IBM."
"Union Hospital was built in 1921. It was originally founded by the Rockefeller Foundation of China. When the hospital was first established, it aimed to build the best medical center in Asia.
The doctors in Yanxia at that time were also Western medicine doctors from abroad. The Rockefeller Foundation introduced Western medicine to Yanxia and sowed the seeds of Western medicine in Union Hospital, which helped the people in Yanxia and greatly improved the medical level in Yanxia.
After all, it is too difficult to train Chinese medicine practitioners, while Western medicine is much easier to train. From this point of view, it can be regarded as an indispensable contribution."
Zhang Zhonghua explained to Zhang Long.
The Rockefeller family is the most hidden super family, and Rockefeller himself is also a super philanthropist. 13 universities in Yanxia, including Qingbei, were also funded and established by the Rockefeller Foundation.
After Zhang Zhonghua waited in the reception room for a few minutes, Watson Jr. came to the reception room in person. He valued Zhang Zhonghua as a supercomputer talent.
In his opinion, Zhang Zhonghua's source code for writing compression software simply reached the highest level of software development. He even received heartfelt praise from dozens of IBM's top programmers. At the same time, it also opened up new ideas for everyone. They found that the original program could be written
So elegant and concise.
You must know that IBM has brought together the world's outstanding computer language experts and mathematics experts, and it took more than a month to truly understand the database algorithm. This difficulty is not weaker than solving several mathematical problems in the world.
As for the source code of the database software, dozens of experts are at a loss. The program encapsulated by the software will destroy itself if it is slightly modified. The code security is also achieved to the extreme.
The program interface provided by Zhang Zhonghua is also clear and concise, requiring only a simple line of code.
IBM experts thought that it would take two or three lines of code to achieve the same effect. Therefore, the database software has almost reached the extreme. This is completely independent development of an excellent computer language.
Therefore, Watson's admiration for Mr. Zhang is astonishing. Advanced computers and powerful software programs complement each other. Without powerful software, even the best hardware developed will be greatly compromised.
"Hello, Mr. Zhang, I still miss the delicious Chinese food you cooked. It is really unforgettable."
