After discussing the matter at the security company, Wang Xudong drove back to Dongqi Company by himself. He didn't do anything else when he returned to the company. He didn't even enter his own office, but went directly into Su Wanqi's office.
Of course, he is still like that. He never knocks when he enters Su Wanqi's office. However, Su Wanqi was very angry before when he entered Su Wanqi's office without knocking. But now, Su Wanqi is no longer so disgusted when he enters Su Wanqi's office again without knocking.
She even felt that there was nothing wrong, as it should be. This had something to do with Su Wanqi getting used to Wang Xudong's style, and also had a lot to do with the progression of the relationship between the two.
Su Wanqi was talking on the phone. When Wang Xudong came in, she ignored her and continued talking on the phone, obviously talking about work.
Wang Xudong walked into Su Wanqi's office, took the cup and poured water for himself, and then sat on a chair and smoked a cigarette.
"Smoking less in the future is not good for your health." Su Wanqi said to Wang Xudong after hanging up the phone.
"okay."
"Tell you something."
"you say."
"If you don't come to the company anyway, your office will be mine from now on."
"Didn't I tell you that I would give you my office a long time ago, but you refused to listen and insisted on creating another office here for yourself."
"The company is expanding rapidly, so the number of personnel in each department is also increasing steadily. Organizational adjustments and personnel adjustments are always being fine-tuned. However, overall, we have been increasing manpower according to needs. Now the total number of employees in the company has been
There are more than 320 people. As you saw when you just came in, the company that used to be more than enough has now become overcrowded. People from the general department in front of me came to see me. Several departments no longer have room to work, so
, the current solution is to dismantle my office and let people from relevant departments use it first. You don’t need your office, so just give it to me." Su Wanqi explained to Wang Xudong.
"This is how it should be, but I never thought that the company would expand so fast. When I first rented this office building, I already exceeded the rent limit. When the company first rented this place, there were only fifty or sixty people working here.
There are only a dozen people, but now, the number has increased ten to twenty times. This place cannot bear it, that’s for sure.”
"I have also seen that this problem is very serious, and the company's scale will definitely expand further. You have to know that the company only has more than 70 stores now. In the next few months, we will expand the scale to 100
More than forty companies, that is to say, correspondingly, the size of the entire company will be doubled. I estimate that by then the company's total staff size will reach more than 500 people. Even if the current number of production personnel and designers is
Excluding the fact that we don't work here, the number of our administrative staff alone will exceed 200, but our office area can withstand a maximum of 100 people, not to mention that we have the design department in a corner next to it.
. Therefore, this problem must be solved, and it must be solved as soon as possible."
Su Wanqi said to Wang Xudong.
Wang Xudong nodded, and then said: "How about we find a bigger place."
"I think so too, but even if we rent a larger place to work, the company will still have many problems, and these problems also exist today. First of all, the company is too loose. Take a look at our company.
The entire administrative department is here, the design department is over there, production and quality inspection including transportation are over there at the factory, and the production room of the first department is over there at the store. Not only does it give people a loose feeling, but in reality
During the operation, it brings a lot of troubles to the management. Many times, we cannot manage the design, production and quality inspection departments at all. This is very serious. If there are no problems, it is fine. Once there are problems, it will be a big problem.
."
"Second, the cost has increased because we were not centralized and wasted too much manpower, material and financial resources in the process. In terms of manpower alone, there is a difference of at least fifteen people between decentralized office and centralized office.
, that is to say, we need to recruit fifteen more people for this kind of decentralized office, and it still cannot achieve the management effect of centralized office. How much will the annual salary and benefits of fifteen people add up? In the future,
If the gap is further expanded, it will be even greater. If it reaches 30 people, the amount of money wasted per year on personnel alone can reach several million, and this does not include wasted transportation expenses. This loss alone every year
At least more than five million."
"The third one is the trouble caused to employees. The company is bigger and there are more people. It is crowded when commuting to and from get off work every day. The most important thing is that there is no way to solve the problem of food. Many employees have opinions. Starting last month
, the company began to provide meal subsidies to each employee, but meal subsidies cannot solve the problem. In the future, if the number of employees further increases, the company will still have to open a canteen, but renting an office building outside will not solve this problem."
"I called Xiaodie over to discuss this matter earlier. Xiaodie suggested to me that we should move the entire company to the factory. Transform the factory and establish a company with independent offices. From now on, all the company's offices will be centralized
There, whether design, production or administration are all concentrated there, I think it is a very good suggestion."
"It sounds good to say that. There is no problem in that factory accommodating five hundred people. Now there are only production and quality inspection personnel there, so it is a bit empty."
"These are not problems. The biggest problem is moving there. We are a big domestic first-tier brand and a big luxury brand, but our office space is too shabby and cannot keep up with our brand positioning. Xiaodie followed me again
As I said, you mentioned this problem when we started preparations, so we have renovated the factory, but in my opinion, it still cannot meet the standards. My idea is that the company is further expanding, and our positioning is high-end, so
, we must show our high-end and powerful image to consumers and the market. Moreover, as far as our own long-term development is concerned, we must first solve the problem of office space, and we must solve it all at once, in one step. If it is still like
As we are currently doing, we don't make long-term plans and make adjustments every once in a while. The time wasted here and the money wasted are too much." Su Wanqi said to Wang Xudong seriously.
Wang Xudong started smoking again, smoking one cigarette after another. He has been thinking about this issue. (To be continued)
