Chapter 453 What will the Protoss Group look like a few years from now?
Chapter 453 What will the Protoss Group be like in a few years?
Jane and Sonia were talking quietly in the office. With so many people coming to Gao Jin, something must have happened. The two of them were analyzing what happened.
Since Gao Jin comprehensively restructured the institute, the number of staff in the institute has been controlled, with no layoffs or additions.
Including allowing subsidiaries to maintain high cash reserves, everything is to cope with market changes.
It's time for a change.
This time the Bitcoin market was bloodbathed, which directly triggered the decline of stock markets in many countries. Although it was still a little short of a global stock market crash, it also allowed countries to start to rectify the chaotic financial order.
This approach can make a lot of companies struggling and make a lot of people unemployed, but it also has great benefits and can delay the outbreak of a large-scale financial crisis in the world for many years.
Now, it's time to further enhance the company's heritage.
We had a video conference with several European research institutes last night to assign tasks, and now it’s China’s turn.
There is a small conference room in Gao Jin's office, and a group of people are meeting in the small conference room. At the same time, they are connected to Teruo Ikeda, general manager of the Energy Research Institute, Ding Jiajian, general manager of the Botany Research Institute, and Lu Zhaotang, head of the Biological Research Institute.
In addition to Liu Mingzhong, the head of the Advanced Materials Research Institute, Liu Mingzhong of the Recycling Technology Research Institute, Ge Gongming, the general manager of the technology company, the heads of the entire Xingling Group's R&D department were all present.
One discussion after another, the meeting did not end at noon, so Jane and Sonia were asked to go to the cafeteria to arrange for some food to be delivered, and everyone ate in the office.
It wasn't until almost four o'clock in the afternoon that the results were finally obtained.
Starlight Technology Company, which Ge Gongming is responsible for, currently has 260 ongoing projects. The first step is to lay off employees, and all the non-executive and idle personnel currently under their control will be eliminated.
There are expected to be more than 280 people, and they will be handled by the person in charge of the Human Resources Department.
While laying off employees, a new round of talent recruitment will be launched, and 421 people will be recruited according to the quota just discussed.
The Energy Research Institute headed by Teruo Ikeda also made personnel changes, laying off 103 people and recruiting 139 new people to complete the replacement of fresh blood.
Acquired the RB Tianjin Magnetic Energy Research Institute and the RB Jingdong Hydrogen Energy Research Institute, and collectively relocated a total of 76 project team members from these two research institutes to the Tianjin Wei Energy Research Institute.
Teruo Ikeda must arrange personnel placement in advance, children go to school, and the accommodation of these researchers must be solved.
If you don’t have enough money, report it directly. Xinghai Technology Company in Xiangjiang City will make the same allocation.
The Institute of Botany, headed by Ding Jiajian, laid off 76 people and recruited 105 new people to complete the replacement with fresh blood.
Acquired 122 patents owned by the Agricultural Research Institute affiliated to Yunnan Agricultural University.
Acquired 228 patents owned by the Agricultural Plant Research Institute of Lanzhou University in Gansu Province.
It is not that simple to complete the acquisition of the research institutions affiliated to these two universities. It doesn't matter, money is easy to do. Now the Xingling Group is short of everything but money.
The Renewable Resources Research Institute headed by Liu Mingzhong currently has 65 projects and 432 employees.
After the meeting, we will lay off 82 people, recruit 118 new people, complete the replacement of fresh blood, and completely eliminate the laziness in the institute.
Liu Mingzhong was prepared in advance and provided an acquisition report.
Two research institutes in the United States, three research institutes in Japan, two research institutes in Germany, two research institutes in the Netherlands, and one research institute in Singapore acquired a total of ten research institutes.
These ten research institutes are all engaged in research on resource recycling technology, and together they have more than 1,900 patents.
After the success is achieved, firstly, the foundation of the Starlight Renewable Resources Technology Research Institute can be increased, and secondly, the personnel can be optimized and combined to lay a firm foundation for some technological breakthroughs.
If it can be completed successfully, Liu Mingzhong expects to achieve many breakthrough results in one year.
Gao Jin approved.
Ask Liu Mingzhong to submit a detailed plan, and Xiangjiang Xinghai Technology Company will allocate funds.
He also gave Haider Hill's mobile phone number to Liu Mingzhong, and when making overseas acquisitions, he contacted Haider Hill and asked him to come forward.
Lu Zhaotang, head of Xinghai Biotechnology Research Institute, also submitted a plan and acquisition catalog.
Currently, the institute has 252 researchers. Forty-nine people were laid off and 56 were re-hired to complete the fresh blood transfusion replacement plan.
Acquired three biologics research institutes in Singapore, three biologics research institutes in RB, and one biologics research institute in Country H, for a total of seven biologics research institutes.
"Why not acquire domestic ones?" Gao Jin asked.
"Chairman, I have inspected eighty-nine domestic biological research institutes. Some of them are state-owned enterprises and cannot be acquired. The remaining research institutes are basically just dawdling."
"The projects they are currently researching are a generation behind ours. Those researchers have become useless. They are focused on intrigues and personal gains and have no intention of conducting in-depth research."
"After comprehensive evaluation, I completely gave up my plan to acquire domestic research institutes and set my target abroad."
"The research institutes just submitted were selected after detailed investigation by two consulting companies. They all have unique patented technologies and can make up for our great certainty after acquisition."
"It can accelerate breakthroughs in some research projects."
Lu Zhaotang reported these things seriously, and Gao Jin nodded calmly and approved Lu Zhaotang's plan.
"You submit a detailed plan, and you don't need to worry about funding. After I review the plan and approve it, the funds will be allocated quickly."
"Similarly, for your overseas acquisitions, you should contact Hyde Hill or the relevant minister."
Gao Jin warned, and Lu Zhaotang immediately agreed.
The Xingling Group headquarters retains 89 special research projects and 766 researchers. Ge Gongming and Jiang Zhenliang are responsible for clearing out 320 people and recruiting another 330 people.
All new recruits are mainly young people. Excluding those from the two major talent training bases in Imperial City, no one from these two places can be recruited, no matter how talented they are.
All research institutes and project teams directly under the headquarters are required to complete fresh blood replacement plans within half a year.
After this adjustment, there will be no further adjustments within two years. It is better to have a shortage than to overfill. The newly recruited talents must be more talented than those laid off.
Zhou Ziru is responsible for leading the group's finance department to re-formulate the salary structure of researchers, increasing it by 20% on the current basis, and using high salaries to network with talents from all over the world.
The issue of upgrading some of the research equipment that everyone mentioned requires that the plan be submitted within three days, and the headquarters group will conduct unified procurement and purchase it as quickly as possible.
"Everyone, several research institutes in Europe have already started to take action. They are making acquisitions and expansions, replacing research equipment, absorbing fresh blood and eliminating outdated personnel."
"I don't want you to fall behind. You should let the research institutes of the EU branch take a look at your strength and use real breakthrough results to establish your glory!"
After Gao Jin finished speaking, he looked at everyone. Everyone present felt Gao Jin's determination to increase investment in scientific research.
If the current momentum continues, we can definitely look forward to the Protoss Group in a few years. Everyone wants to know what the Protoss Group will be like in a few years.
After setting up, the meeting ended. In the evening, Gao Jin held a video conference with Taylor, CEO of Starlight Future Health Company, and Pierce, head of Xinghai Mini Laboratory, in the study.
Taylor and Pierce were asked to lay off 250 people from the current mini-laboratory project team from the current 589.
At the same time, recruitment quotas for 280 people were given.
After listening to what Gao Jin said, both Taylor and Pierce breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that they were not really going to lay off employees. During this period, companies in Silicon Valley were going bankrupt one after another.
Very, very, very many people have lost their jobs. Because of Bitcoin, Silicon Valley is in mourning, and it has dealt a huge blow to startups.
When they first heard about the layoffs of more than 200 people, both of them were heartbroken because the local government and relevant departments had talked to Taylor and no layoffs were allowed. At this stage, no layoffs are allowed at all.
If we lay off people now, we must ensure that the total number of employees in the company will not be lower than the current number in three months, otherwise, huge fines will be issued.
Now after listening to Gao Jin's words, the two of them feel relieved. It is good for research and development to carry out personnel replacement. They support this, because they also found that some people are perfunctory and useless.
Pierce proposed to acquire two start-up companies, mainly to obtain more than 100 patents from these two start-up companies, which can effectively make up for the current mini laboratory.
Gao Jin approved and Taylor was solely responsible for the matter.
"Pierce, I approve the acquisition. I guarantee that the required research and development expenses will be sufficient. However, we must produce a result that satisfies me this year."
"You know very well how much I have invested in this project so far. The money has been spent and I want to see the results."
"If you can't do this, it means you are not suitable to stay in your current position."
Gao Jin was not polite at all when he spoke. A wave of pressure traveled across the ocean and overwhelmed Pierce. Taylor looked at Pierce with sympathetic eyes.
"Don't worry, boss, I will definitely produce results that satisfy you this year," Pierce promised with a serious expression. Gao Jin nodded with satisfaction when he saw Pierce's expression.
The three chatted for a while, and Gao Jin ended the video conference and returned to the room to rest.
One day later, the Human Resources Department of Xingling Group Headquarters took action and started talking to employees, kicking off the layoffs.
The layoffs will start at the headquarters.
Some people accepted it calmly, while others refused and began to complain to the relevant departments of Rizao City.
After a few days,
Rumors spread throughout the morning market about the layoffs of Xingling Group.
