Chapter 451: Promotion

After leaving Yuzhou Special Steel, Han Songlin and his entourage found a place to eat; they didn't go to any big hotel, but to a roadside stall that looked fairly clean.

The business here seems pretty good.

Han Songlin said to Fei Wencheng, 'After the acquisition of Yuzhou Special Steel, you will be in charge of the finances here. Is that okay?'

Before that, Han Songlin had discussed the financial candidate for Yuzhou Special Steel with Zheng Lin in the car.

Fei Wencheng was quite promising, so Han Songlin was prepared to give him a try at Yuzhou Special Steel.

Fei Wencheng did not hesitate for a moment and readily agreed, 'No problem. Don't worry, boss, I'll do a good job!'

Hesitate? It was already very good that Fei Wencheng was able to hold back from jumping up.

Everyone wants a promotion and a pay rise.

Han Songlin: 'What do you think of Chen Dong?'

Fei Wencheng knew in his heart that his comments on Chen Dong today might have a significant impact on Han Songlin's decision-making.

So, he didn't speak immediately. After thinking carefully for a moment, Fei Wencheng said, 'Boss, then I will talk about my recent contact with him and some of my feelings about him.'

Han Songlin nodded slightly, indicating that Fei Wencheng could speak directly.

'Chen Dong's love for Yuzhou Special Steel is unquestionable. Three generations of the Chen family, or should I say four generations, have all worked at Yuzhou Special Steel.'

Han Songlin looked at Zheng Lin, his gaze filled with surprise.

Zheng Lin also raised an eyebrow slightly. To be honest, he really hadn't noticed this before.

Some things, really, if you don't come and see for yourself, you simply won't be able to tell from the documents.

'In that case, Chen Dong's influence at Yuzhou Special Steel should be quite large!' Han Songlin couldn't help but frown.

The management of modern enterprises should not engage in anything like the Guzi School or the School of Thick Darkness; China has fallen into a state of mistrust of human nature because of all this analysis of human nature.

If you don't believe in human nature, what will you believe in?

Engaging in all kinds of plots and schemes in corporate management.

As the owner of the company, you are the owner of this company; the entire company belongs to you, and yet you are still scheming and plotting with the employees below, is this appropriate?

If everything is done openly, no one can oppose you, and no one can target you.

Han Songlin simply did not care about whether Chen Dong's family, the Chen family, had a lot of influence behind Yuzhou Special Steel.

If Han Songlin would be afraid of their little bit of influence, he simply should not have acquired Yuzhou Special Steel.

Han Songlin was considering whether Chen Dong, with his complicated connections at Yuzhou Special Steel, could shoulder the important task of reforming Yuzhou Special Steel.

Once Xinghai Group took over Yuzhou Special Steel, it would definitely carry out large-scale reforms, which would naturally infringe on the interests of some people.

This is only natural.

Everyone can feel it when it happens. Any management adjustment made by a company will attract some opposition.

In fact, these objections seem to be completely unreasonable.

But why do people oppose it?

To put it bluntly, it harms other people's interests.

For example, the clock-in/clock-out system. In the past, people didn't clock in or out at work.

Now they do, but who's interests are harmed?

On paper, it seems that no one's interests are harmed. As long as you clock in and out on time, clocking in is just an extra few seconds at the fingerprint machine.

But in reality?

This system does harm people's interests.

Whose interests?

People who are late for work and leave early.

So many systems are useless for honest people, and they won't break the rules.

But honest people are the silent majority in a group.

The silent majority will not express their opinions; on the contrary, those whose interests are harmed will jump for joy.

It seems as if they represent the general public.

In fact, it's just an illusion; but can Chen Dong stand up to these illusions?

This is very important.

Fei Wencheng didn't think as much as Han Songlin: 'I didn't really notice this. Chen Dong wasn't taken very seriously at Yuzhou Special Steel before.'

Previously, Yuzhou Special Steel had undergone a management restructuring, with the factory manager being responsible for everything. Chen Dong ranked low in the factory hierarchy, and basically had no say in anything except for the matters under his direct supervision.

Many state-owned enterprises have developed as a result of this restructuring, but many more have simply gone from bad to worse.

Why?

Put bluntly, they have employed the wrong people.

At the time, there was a real lack of management talent in China.

Yuzhou Special Steel's previous management restructuring had serious problems with hiring, needless to say!

Now Han Songlin has to consider whether Chen Dong can do the job.

Han Songlin: 'After the official takeover, I will have a good talk with Chen Dong. If Chen Dong doesn't work out, we will have to consider finding a suitable talent.'

He rubbed his head and wondered why he hadn't paid more attention to top managers in the past.

If he had to name top managers, he would say that Wang Shitu was good and Miss Dong was also very capable.

But Han Songlin couldn't poach people from them!

Yuzhou Special Steel was an iron and steel company, which didn't quite fit.

Well, managing a company is actually similar in nature, and these top talents will adapt quickly.

Zheng Lin doesn't care, and the general manager of Yuzhou Special Steel is not that important to a certain extent.

The role of the general manager is to maintain the stable operation of Yuzhou Special Steel, ensure production quality and product sales.

The major development direction and management system are decided by Xinghai Group.

Of course, if the general manager is capable, he or she will naturally have a say in the development direction.

The right to speak is something that is never given by others, and it is entirely based on one's own strength.

'If you don't have the right person, I'll do it for a while!' Zheng Lin was eager to try.

Han Songlin's expression twitched slightly, and then he decisively refused, 'Well, just do your own thing.'

According to Zheng Lin's personality, Han Songlin was afraid that the entire Yuzhou Special Steel would be made to be hated by heaven and man.

She shrugged her shoulders and didn't care. She simply wanted to help Han Songlin.

Since he didn't appreciate her help, she naturally didn't bother.

In the afternoon, Han Songlin and the others went to the Yuzhou City Hall.

A deputy provincial governor also came to Yuzhou.

Shuchuan, Yuzhou and Xinghai Group had an in-depth exchange at the city hall.

At the meeting, Han Songlin talked about an arrangement for the future of Yuzhou Special Steel.

It is certain that Yuzhou Special Steel will be scaled down.

In the short term, there is no need for Yuzhou Special Steel to retain so many workers.

This is especially true of the large number of personnel from other factories that Yuzhou Special Steel has accepted.

These people have nothing to do with steelmaking.

As for reducing the number of workers, Xinghai Group and Yuzhou have discussed this issue at length.

Of course, Yuzhou hopes that Xinghai Group can retain the jobs of all the workers.

In this way, Yuzhou can also get by quite well.

But Xinghai Group cannot afford to keep idle people on its payroll!
