On this day, Chen Feng finally stayed at home quietly for a whole day without leaving the house.
In the evening, when the two women came back from get off work, while eating, Wu Mengting chatted with Chen Feng about the selection of personal assistants.
"Brother, I thought about it and thought You Jialing could be your personal assistant."
Chen Feng asked in surprise: "You are talking about your classmate's cousin, who is now your assistant?"
Wu Mengting nodded and said: "Yes. Her abilities in all aspects are really good. Being my assistant is really a bit of an incompetence. She has only been in the company for a few days and she already knows our company inside and out."
And basically I have met most of the people in the company, and everyone has a good impression of her. In addition, as you know, I had an assistant before, and I had two assistants, which was somewhat beyond the standard. Sister You is a bit like me here.
I am overqualified, so I will be just fine as your assistant."
Although what Wu Mengting said made sense, she was his personal assistant after all. Chen Feng would not agree so easily. After thinking about it, he said: "I will go to the company to meet her in person tomorrow. You don't want to do it first."
Tell her about this, after all, I may not necessarily recruit her as an assistant. I will talk about everything after I meet and talk with her tomorrow."
Speaking of this, Chen Feng turned to Sun Xiaorui who was standing aside and asked: "Xiaorui, do you think it is appropriate for her to be my personal assistant?"
Sun Xiaorui glanced at Wu Mengting first, and then said: "It's appropriate. However, I personally think it's a matter of trust. After all, you and she didn't know each other before. Can you trust her, or is she worthy of your trust?
question."
Wu Mengting said: "She is the cousin of my best friend, and she is also a returnee who graduated from Yale University. She has been married and had children. She is mature and stable. I personally think she is completely trustworthy. If you feel unsafe, you can
Before she takes up the job, sign a confidentiality agreement with her so that she cannot reveal your employer's personal privacy. If you violate it, you will be punished with huge compensation."
The method of confidentiality agreement is very popular in foreign countries, but it is not very common in China. It mainly depends on the change of concept.
In the domestic workplace, there is really no such thing as keeping secrets from employers.
Whether you are loyal to your employer or not depends entirely on your personal morality and conscience.
If someone really pays to bribe the workers, it will be difficult for the workers to keep the employer's secret secret.
Therefore, Chen Feng really doesn't trust this kind of person who he doesn't know yet or has just met.
"Let's wait until I see her tomorrow." Chen Feng said, then turned to Sun Xiaorui and asked, "Do you have anyone to recommend?"
Sun Xiaorui glanced at Wu Mengting again and then said: "I don't know many people. There are basically no people suitable to be your assistant, especially women. However, yesterday Liu Ying took the initiative to contact me and asked me to help
She said a few words in front of you and said she still wanted to be your personal assistant."
This was the first time Wu Mengting heard about this. After hearing this, she couldn't help but frown and said: "She doesn't care about the child anymore? Her child is only two or three months old. How can I be Chen Feng's personal assistant?"
Chen Feng saw Wu Mengting feeling somewhat embarrassed when talking about Liu Ying's child, and immediately said: "She is indeed not suitable. I have clearly rejected her long ago."
Sun Xiaorui was also kind, and then said: "She told me that she can only be responsible for your internal affairs. As long as it is something in the city of Xiuzhou, she can help you handle it, so that it will not delay her taking care of the children."
After all, during the day, the child is left to the nanny and her mother most of the time. In addition, as your assistant, you don’t have to do things for you every day. Jin Xinyan has told her this a long time ago. You can
In addition, hire an assistant who is responsible for external affairs. In this way, she will be responsible for your internal affairs and can keep your confidentiality. If you leave the external affairs to another assistant, your privacy will generally not be involved, and you will not have to worry about your privacy being leaked.
Already."
When Chen Feng heard what Liu Ying said, he was really moved. Of course, he was just moved by Liu Ying's method. He still couldn't let Liu Ying be his assistant. After all, Liu Ying's most important thing now was...
They still have to raise their daughter well.
Wu Mengting raised her eyebrows and said, "Does Liu Ying have a good relationship with that Jin Xinyan now?"
Sun Xiaorui immediately shook her head and said: "I don't know about that. I usually don't have much contact with them. This time Liu Ying sent me several messages and a video call. I had no choice but to do it for her.
Conveyed her meaning."
Sun Xiaorui looked upright, but Wu Mengting couldn't say anything to her in front of Chen Feng.
When Liu Ying was still in Fengmang Film and Television, Sun Xiaorui had always cooperated with Wu Mengting to suppress and exclude Liu Ying. As long as Sun Xiaorui was not stupid, she would not get involved with Liu Ying.
"If she contacts you again, tell her that it is impossible for me to agree to let her be my assistant. In addition, she cannot go out to work until the child goes to kindergarten, so she will stay at home and take care of the child.
"
Chen Feng's words are a bit chauvinistic, but he has the confidence now. After all, everything Liu Ying has is given by him. He also gives her hundreds of thousands of living expenses every month. She is not short of money, and the child is still so young.
The first priority is of course taking care of the children.
"Yes, I understand." Sun Xiaorui nodded obediently in agreement.
Chen Feng asked again: "Besides Liu Ying, do you have any other candidates to recommend?"
Sun Xiaorui was not stupid and immediately shook his head.
Wu Mengting is right next to her. Of course she won't be stupid enough to name all the recommended candidates for Guo Mengyao and the others. Named Liu Ying is enough for the time being.
When Chen Feng and Sister Wu Mengting saw this, they stopped continuing the topic.
The next day was a rainy day, and Chen Feng really didn't want to go out, but he told Wu Mengting yesterday that he would go to the company and meet You Jialing, and he still kept his promise.
However, Chen Feng did not go with them.
Instead, it was almost an hour after they left, almost ten o'clock, that I drove to the company.
Chen Feng, the mysterious boss, suddenly appeared in the company, which was really not good news for the company. Starting from the front desk, everyone became nervous.
The reason is very simple. The salary at Fengmang Film and Television is so good. Everyone in the company cares about this job, and of course they don't want to lose points in front of the boss Chen Feng.
In addition, the company's market value is now close to 2 billion, and the boss Chen Feng is only in his early thirties, so he can be said to be young, promising, and wealthy.
In addition, several people were laid off last time, and it was personally ordered by the boss Chen Feng, including the HR manager.
Of course everyone in the company was in awe of him.
As he walked in, every company employee he met greeted him respectfully.
After the company expanded its recruitment last year, except for a few fishermen who were laid off not long ago, the employees generally have not changed much, so basically these employees have met the boss Chen Feng.
Now that Chen Feng was dealing with this kind of situation, he didn't feel anything at all. He just nodded slightly towards them. Their status was different. This already showed that he was very polite and well-educated.
Walking all the way to her chairman's office, Sun Xiaorui immediately came over to perform her duties as the chairman's secretary, bringing her tea and water.
In fact, she, the secretary to the board of directors, had not provided much service to Chen Feng in the company throughout the year.
Chen Feng didn't want to waste too much time in the company, so after Sun Xiaorui poured him tea, he said, "Please ask You Jialing to come over."
After Sun Xiaorui agreed, she went out directly.
After waiting for less than three minutes, there was a knock on the door, and Sun Xiaorui opened the door and led You Jialing in.
You Jialing said she was 32 years old, but she obviously took good care of herself and had a well-managed figure. She was very slim. Even though she was only wearing a black business suit, she looked 27 or 28 years old on the outside, which made her look young.
"Chairman, we have brought you here. This is You Jialing."
After Sun Xiaorui made a brief introduction, he stood aside.
"Hello, Chairman, I am You Jialing. Nice to meet you."
You Jialing smiled brightly at Chen Feng, showing no restraint at all. She stepped forward to the desk and extended her hand to Chen Feng.
Seeing this, Chen Feng had no choice but to stand up from the boss's chair, reach out and shake her hand across the large desk.
"I'm glad to see you too and welcome you to our company."
"Thanks."
You Jialing is not very beautiful, but she has an energetic and uplifting temperament and looks very confident. Coupled with her background in a prestigious school and studying abroad, people who know her will naturally take a high look at her.
"Sit down."
Chen Feng stretched out his hand and pointed to the sofa beside him.
You Jialing smiled slightly and went over to sit on the sofa without being polite.
Sun Xiaorui played the role of secretary very well and immediately poured her a cup of tea and placed it on the coffee table in front of her.
Then, Sun Xiaorui took the initiative to leave the office with a wink.
"I heard from Mengting that not long after you started working, you already know our company from top to bottom. Please tell me how you feel about our company."
You Jialing thought that the boss Chen Feng was going to give her a late interview. After thinking about it for a while, she said: "The overall operation of the company is relatively healthy, but what I have to say is that the company's
There are some shortcomings in profitability. Basically, it is all supported by Mr. Wu's personal creative ability. Among the several TV series produced by the company, the most profitable ones are all produced by Mr. Wu. This is too single, which is very dangerous.
To put it bluntly, if Mr. Wu resigns or leaves our company in the future, then our company will have no other profit points, and it will be difficult to find another gold medal screenwriter and gold medal producer like Mr. Wu.
Therefore, for the company's long-term considerations, the company must broaden its profit points and must poach people or train its own screenwriters and producers. In addition, the company's treatment for employees is honestly a bit too high, such as meal subsidies and accommodation subsidies.
, transportation subsidies, vacation subsidies, etc. are too many, especially the year-end bonus for ordinary employees is actually three months' salary. I have studied, lived and worked in America for several years, and few companies there have such high benefits. I
I feel that it is necessary to reduce the company’s operating costs.”
Chen Feng actually feels in his heart that the benefits of the company's employees are indeed a bit high now, but he doesn't really care, as long as they don't fish for money and are worthy of the high benefits and treatment given to them by his boss.
However, this was an interview after all, so Chen Feng said calmly: "It will be difficult to lower the benefits after they have been increased. It will greatly dampen the employees' work enthusiasm, and it will also tarnish my personal and our company's reputation.
"
You Jialing smiled slightly and said: "Chairman, you are right. If the benefits are increased and suddenly dropped, it will definitely alienate the company, affect morale, and ruin the reputation of you and the company. But we can change our thinking and think about it.
To reduce operating costs, you can completely reduce the number of employees. To be honest, if the company gives employees such high treatment, employees must exert at least 90% of their work capabilities. But according to my observation, most of the employees throughout the company
All employees have only exerted 50% to 80% of their working ability. There are only a few employees who have exceeded 80%, and there is probably only one employee who has exceeded 90%, and that is Mr. Wu."
"Do you mean to lay off employees and then find ways to stimulate and increase employees' work intensity?" Chen Feng asked.
You Jialing nodded and said: "Yes, there is actually no need to recruit several people for some positions in the company. They can be reduced by half. We can use the last elimination system to eliminate one employee with the lowest performance from each department every month.
In this way, in a few months, we can achieve the goal of reducing the company's operating costs, and at the same time, it can also stimulate employees' sense of crisis and work enthusiasm, allowing them to exert at least 80% of their work capabilities."
After listening to her suggestion, Chen Feng had to secretly praise him in his heart. He was indeed a corporate management talent who had gone to a capitalist country to study. He was unparalleled in squeezing the surplus value of his employees.
It's a pity that Chen Feng is not a qualified capitalist and boss now. He has already made enough through the company Fengmang Film and Television. It really doesn't matter if he appropriately distributes part of the profit to the people below.
As I said before, as long as the employees below don't take advantage of the situation and work hard and with a correct attitude, it will be fine.
As for You Jialing's statement that most of the employees in the company only exert 50% to 80% of their working ability, that may be right, but Chen Feng doesn't really care. After all, people are not machines. We want them to be energetic and high-spirited every day.
Ji Lai works hard at the company and fights for his boss to buy cars and houses and date more beautiful women. How is that possible?
"Your suggestion is very good, but I will not adopt it for the time being. Our company will not permanently adopt the last elimination system, but will conduct a work report system from time to time, so that employees, especially the middle and senior management of the company above the supervisor level, can report to me as the boss.
Or the general manager will report his work. If he loses too many points during his work report, individual personnel will be laid off. I don’t want to create too much of a sense of crisis in the company, which is not conducive to our company’s atmosphere and business development.”
When You Jialing heard what Chen Feng said, she said with admiration and admiration: "Chairman, you are a kind and wise person. Your method is more suitable than the last-place elimination system I suggested. The last-place elimination system is too rigid."
, and he is so inhumane that he has lost some of his warmth."
This flattery is still quite good, but it's a pity that Chen Feng has already marked her as a personal assistant because of her suggestion just now.
The reason is simple. The suggestion she just made was a bit too cold-blooded.
Of course he doesn't want to keep a cold-blooded person by his side.()
