Rebirth 2010: I taught Mr. Lei how to make a mobile phone

Chapter 391 The Other Shore Union is established!

Before leaving, Chen Mo looked at Zhang Xuhao and said, "Oh, by the way, as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Bi'an Group, Ele.me should also not violate the red line."

Watching the boss' figure disappear at the elevator entrance, Deng Ye finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the tense muscles all over his body relaxed. Damn, he felt that he was trembling when he spoke just now.

Thinking about the boss's last words, Deng Ye blinked and asked Zhang Xuhao in confusion, "Boss, what did the boss mean by his last words? What is the red line on the other side?"

Zhang Xuhao had a toothache. "Compliance with the labor law is only valid for employees."

“Shouldn’t ordinary entrepreneurs stand with us managers?”

“The big boss is different, he is an entrepreneur, not a capitalist!
Ye Zi, you need to focus on this and make sure everyone at Ele.me doesn’t cross the red line.”

"Yeah, I understand! Even though our Ele.me is small in scale, the treatment is at least top-notch."

"Let's discuss the follow-up plan, then gather our own people and get busy."

According to the original plan, after ten days or so, Chen Mo should have returned to Beijing. Now he is indeed on his way back to Beijing. After all, Nanjing is also Beijing.

Chen Mo thought that since he was already here, Shanghai and Nanjing were not far away, and there was nothing important for him to do when he returned, he would stop by Nanjing Innovent for a look.

Now Nanjing Inventec has become the exclusive OEM factory for Xiaomi mobile phones and tablets. Not only that, Foxconn, BYD and other OEM factories also have massive production lines for Xiaomi. After all, Lei Jun's daily talk about increasing production capacity is not just talk.

It was he who negotiated for Inventec to be Xiaomi's first OEM factory, and he was also the one who facilitated the treatment of these assembly line workers. I wonder if more than a year later, it is still as agreed.

Chen Mo trusts Zhang Feng's character, but sometimes, the leader is good, the company's rules and regulations are good, and there is no problem in the initial implementation, but time will tell. He can only feel at ease after seeing with his own eyes how the workers are treated.

One day in late November, Chen Mo, along with Lao Mo and a trusted bodyguard, made a surprise visit to Inventec.

When they walked into the factory, they met a worker. After some communication, Chen Mo's face was as dark as water and he was furious.
In a corner of the Inventec factory, a middle-aged man was surrounded by several workers. However, they did not seem to be gathering to cause trouble, but rather to be like a group of stars surrounding the moon.
Several workers spoke to the leader about their demands.

"Manager Wang, several air conditioners in the staff dormitory broke down before, and there were also some consumables for work. The company said that they would be reimbursed later, but some workers paid for it themselves. It has been delayed for three months. When will the money be approved? Manager Wang, please be kind~"

"Brother Wang, you smoke. Everyone's overtime pay has not been paid for several months. Even this month's salary has been delayed by a week."

"The benefits that were promised to us at the beginning are gradually not being delivered. We work so hard here, is this how the company rewards us?"

These employees are representatives of many people who have come forward to report to the leadership. At this time, those who speak good words speak good words, while those who play the bad cop role play the bad cop role.

The man called Manager Wang is not as pot-bellied as other leaders. He has a rather sturdy figure and it is obvious that he has spent a lot of time and effort on fitness for many years to get this body.

He was the person in charge of this factory area. Seeing the surroundings closing in, he knew that he could not escape this time. He impatiently threw the cigarette that the other party handed to him as a gesture of friendship to the ground.
"You have your difficulties, and the company has its own difficulties. As a member of the company's big family, you should be more considerate of the company. The industry is not doing well now, and our customers don't pay in one lump sum.
Look at other factories around you, how many of them can pay wages normally? Ask them if they have overtime pay? Our company has overtime pay, and the dormitories have wifi, air conditioning, warm in winter and cool in summer. You should be grateful. It's not that we won't pay you a few months later, but why are you making a fuss?

Wait a little longer, I guess next month, when the company has money, we will give priority to everyone's needs~"

"We understood the company's difficulties for a month or two, but it's been three months. When has the company ever understood our difficulties?"

"Brother Wang from Group 5 is raising the children alone. In order to work overtime to earn more money, the children wait in the guard room until 8 or 9 o'clock in the evening after school."

"Now, just for Xiaomi's orders, everyone is working overtime day and night, and they are so busy that they can't finish it. Isn't it just for the overtime pay to earn more money to supplement the family income? Why is the market not good?"

"Sister Liu from Group 3's husband has cancer, and the family is waiting for this overtime pay to pay for his treatment."

When Manager Wang heard this, he scratched his ears with his fingers and said impatiently, "Alright, alright, everyone has their own problems. Why are you special?"
Well, I have an idea for you. You are kind-hearted, so why not raise funds quickly and ask everyone to donate money? Wouldn't that solve the urgent problem? Sometimes, don't look for the company first when something goes wrong, but think of a solution from your own perspective first!"

A tall and thin man said indignantly, "We just want to fight for our legal rights. Is that wrong?"

Manager Wang laughed, "That's right, Zhao Liang. If you don't like it, you can sue me. Don't think I don't know. You are the one who stirs up the mood of everyone's normal work time and time again. Look, everyone else is working well, why are you the only one who has so much trouble? I think you don't want to do this anymore!"

Zhao Liang was no longer hiding his feelings. "Damn it, if you don't want to do it, then don't do it. Do you think your father was brought up by fear? The company has clearly formulated rules and regulations. It was fine before, but since you, a bastard, came, everyone is complaining. Every day they say that the work is not saturated and the efficiency is declining. Guess why everyone's efficiency is not high?"

"Hey? Zhao Liang, I didn't realize you were such a warrior. Your courage is commendable, but I regret to inform you that you have been fired from the company.

Don't worry, the company will pay you all the overtime pay, wages, and compensation that you owed before. You can go directly to the HR department to handle the formalities. Who else wants to follow him and leave?"

Manager Wang finished speaking, and looked around at the other people and the other people behind him. When he saw the evasive looks from these people, he immediately gained confidence, "Little guys, let me tell you, Inventec has always had a zero-tolerance attitude towards troublesome employees!"

With no way out, Zhao Liang decided to burn his boats and ran to the busy production line at the back, shouting to everyone, "We all need to unite at this moment. Let's go to Mr. Zhang to report the current situation. I believe Mr. Zhang will give everyone justice, and we will definitely fight for our due rights!"

Zhao Liang originally thought that if he called for help, everyone who was oppressed in daily life would stand up and join him. As long as they had more people, they would have the right to speak.

After all, the person that everyone curses the most during the closing chat is Manager Wang, the guy who makes even Zhou Bapi feel ashamed.

Looking at the workers who pretended to be busy and avoided his gaze, Zhao Liang went from hope at first to surprise. Then, when he saw several workers who were of similar age to him and with whom he had a good relationship stopped what they were doing, a light appeared in his eyes again.

Manager Wang saw Zhao Liang going crazy, and he quickly stepped forward and shouted, pointing at the people in front of him who were ready to make a move.
"I wonder who dares to move? Whoever comes out will suffer the same fate as Zhao Liang. You should know how many people are trying to get in outside our factory every day. You can see them every day when you go to and from get off work. I'm telling you, if you don't do it, there are plenty of people who will!

Even if you all quit, the worst that can happen is that we can stop working for a few days and recruit enough people to continue working. The world will continue to run without anyone, and the sky of Inventec will not fall!"

These words immediately put out the flames of anger among some employees, and even the representatives who had surrounded Manager Wang secretly returned to their respective workstations.

Manager Wang waved to the back door. Two security guards walked behind him and looked at the troublemaker with a smile, "Zhao Liang, do you want to leave gracefully or do you want me to help you leave gracefully?"

Zhao Liang looked at his co-workers who were busy working and felt disheartened. Now that things had come to this, he would not blame them. After all, he was alone and could rely on his passion, but most of the people here had already been smoothed over by life and family. Since they made their own choices, they had to bear the corresponding consequences, which was understandable.

But he also paid a price for his choice. He would rather die standing than live on his knees. Zhao Liang finally stared at Manager Wang angrily, "Rubbish!"

After cursing, he spat at the other person's feet and walked away with his head held high.

"Go, watch Zhao Liang complete his resignation procedures, and don't let him sneak into Mr. Zhang's office to cause trouble. Although Mr. Zhang is on a business trip, he is busy with many things every day. Don't worry about such a small matter." Manager Wang said to a security guard behind him.

Then he walked in front of everyone present and shouted, "Don't always think about what the company has given you, think more about what you have contributed to the company."

Manager Wang then began to take advantage of the situation and began to brainwash people, not mentioning the company's benefits.
After talking for about ten minutes, Manager Wang felt that he had said enough. If he didn't give his employees a warning, they would not learn their lesson. "Today, everyone will work an extra hour overtime, but there will be no overtime pay."

Before he finished speaking, everyone was in uproar.
"What are you arguing about? Who has an opinion?"

Then Manager Wang saw a familiar tall man returning to his workstation to continue working.

"Zhao Liang, you still have the nerve to come back? What's wrong? Have you figured it out? Don't pretend. Let me tell you, even if you work 24 hours a day, Inventec won't want you anymore!"

A clear voice sounded from behind Manager Wang, "Who said that?"

"I'm telling you! Apart from Mr. Zhang, even Jesus can't help here! Damn it, where did this blind man come from? Don't you want to do this anymore? Why do you want to be the second Zhao Liang?"

Manager Wang turned around and saw a handsome young man with a certain temperament, with two people following behind him.

Although the other person looked a little familiar, as if I had seen him somewhere before.

But this is not important. Zhang Feng is on a business trip and has not returned yet. Now he is the boss in the Innolux factory and no one can stop him.

Seeing the intruder who was obviously not his own employee, Manager Wang was furious, "How come cats and dogs can come into our Inventec? Do the security guards outside eat shit?"

Then a security captain next to him said, "You, get them out!"

The security captain saluted Manager Wang and said, "Got it, Manager. I promise to complete the task!"

He turned around and acted arrogantly, bossing the three people opposite him around.
"You, you, you, are you deaf? Didn't you hear what our manager said? Please get out! Don't refuse a toast and drink a forfeit. Don't make me ask someone to carry you out. There are more than ten security guards in Inventec. Hey, I'm talking to you!"

The security guard walked over and tried to push the young man, but as soon as he stretched out his hand, he felt dizzy and found himself lying on the ground, and then the pain came. Manager Wang's pupils shrank. He didn't even see the other person's movements clearly, and the security guard was knocked to the ground by a man behind the young man.

After seeing the man knock over the security guard, he quickly approached him.

Manager Wang looked terrified and flustered. He pointed at the man who was approaching him and said, "We live in a society ruled by law. How dare you?"

Seeing the boss waving his hand impatiently, the man did not hesitate and kicked the opponent's calf. The opponent leaned forward and was swept by the opponent.
With a bang, the muscular manager Wang fell to the ground and groaned. Some employees who witnessed this scene couldn't help but gasp.

The next moment, there was some applause and cheers from the crowd, such as "Good fight!" and "Well done."

Manager Wang, who was lying on the ground, looked at the young man approaching with resentment, and said in a timid tone, "You dare to cause a beating, you're done, wait for the compensation, don't even think about settling this matter without a million or eight hundred thousand!"

The young man looked down at Manager Wang, who was groaning on the ground, with a look of contempt and disdain, "When I was not successful, I dared to beat up even the boss. Now I feel dirty beating up a jerk like you who is just sitting there doing nothing and treating employees like no one else? Since you treat laws and regulations as a joke, I can only choose to temporarily put aside the law and take up arms!"

The young man squatted down and patted the other person's face. "If you are not satisfied, you can appeal. My name is Chen Mo, remember this!"

After Chen Mo finished speaking, he took out his cell phone and made a call. "Hello, Zhang Feng, I'm Chen Mo. Where else can I be? I'm here to help you clean up your factory. Let's meet and talk about the details. Okay, I'll wait for you!"

After hearing the other party's name and the content of the call, Manager Wang finally remembered where he had seen him. There was a photo in the online news, and then he immediately became cautious even with his humming.

Although he had not come to Innovent at that time, he knew the relationship between Chen Mo and Innovent. From what he heard on the phone, he knew that the boss, who was on a business trip, put down his work and returned immediately. Manager Wang looked as pale as death. Everything was over.

After finishing the call, Chen Mo stood up and walked into the crowd.
"My name is Chen Mo. Some old employees may know me. I just called your General Manager Zhang. If you have any requests, tell me and he will help you solve the problems you encounter at work!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a crowd of people gathered around Chen Mo, and they started to respond as if they had seen a great ruler.
"Mr. Chen, overtime pay has been delayed for three months."

"Mr. Chen, I don't ask for anything else, just to get my reimbursement that has not been approved. It's nearly a month's salary, and it has been delayed for several months."

"Mr. Chen, Mr. Chen."

Chen Mo raised his hands to signal, "Don't rush, come one by one, is there anyone who can help record that?"

Zhao Liang volunteered, "Mr. Chen, I'll take the notes!"

5 hours later, in the office of the general manager of Inventec.

"The matter has been investigated. Manager Wang did this because he used the money owed to employees to invest in stocks, but ended up getting stuck, so he kept delaying it. He is still thinking that he can get his money back next month and then settle the account as if nothing happened."

No wonder, now it all makes sense, otherwise there is no need for such good treatment. Therefore, the stock market is risky and investment should be cautious. Gamblers like these who always go all in and use leverage will not be housed!

"Not only him, but also two financial officers have been fired and handed over to the public security organs. I asked the company's legal department, and they are suspected of abusing their positions to embezzle company property. The amount is extremely large. It is estimated that they will not be able to escape in 10 years. The company will pay an additional sum of money to solve the employee problems you recorded before, and some other feedback issues will also be corrected and improved!"

Chen Mo was satisfied after hearing about the result of Zhang Feng's swift and decisive handling of the case. At least it was not the worst plan. He was afraid that Zhang Feng had colluded with Manager Wang. However, even so, he still gave the other party a shot of prevention.

“Mr. Zhang, the current scale of Inventec was achieved thanks to Xiaomi, and Xiaomi was brought in by me. These employees don’t know about their treatment, but you should know that it was also decided by me.

I just happened to catch up this time. There will be similar questions in the future. China has more than one Inventec and one Xiaomi. What do you think? "

Zhang Feng sighed and personally poured a cup of tea for Chen Mo. He was very humble and said, "In the past six months, thanks to Xiaomi, Inventec has also built factories in other places to expand its scale. It's also my fault that I'm always on business trips, which led to poor supervision and this terrible thing. It's really wrong to make Mr. Chen worry about it!"

"No wonder Mr. Lei has been telling me recently that Inventec's production has suddenly dropped. Now I know the reason. Xiaomi may send a team to check on the work status of your employees. I hope I don't bother you."

"You are welcome. Even if you didn't mention it, I have this plan. After all, I know that only when the employees are good can the company be good."

"Well, I am overstepping my authority by coming here uninvited. Is Mr. Wang's injury okay?"

"It's nothing. It's his fault. He's such a grown man and he walks so carelessly. He deserves it if he stumbles."

"Well, you have to be careful in the future."

"I'm hosting this event to thank Mr. Chen for his help on behalf of Inventec!"

"I came in a hurry this time, so I won't eat. Let's wait until next time. We can have a good gathering next time. Now, please stay!"

"Mr. Chen, take care!"

Zhang Feng looked at the other party's leaving figure, feeling very emotional. Two years ago, the other party was still a young man who needed his help. He talked about Xiaomi, vision, and development and planning from the perspective of Inventec. He was so energetic and high-spirited, and his words were full of personal charm. Zhang Feng was deeply moved and agreed to cooperate.

Unexpectedly, in just two years, the world turned upside down, and the impression Chen Mo left on him was completely different from before.

Although he was equally young and handsome, his age was enough to make people ignore him. Now in Chen Mo, he could see a similar strong aura that could only be seen in some big business bosses. He was decisive and domineering, but at the same time, he knew his limits very well. This time, he was a little unable to see through the other party's depth.

As for what Chen Mo said just now, Zhang Feng had no doubt about the other party's ability. Xiaomi has become Inventec's biggest breadwinner. After all, the massive orders every year directly fill Inventec. In the past two years, Inventec has made a lot of money, and his position in the head office has also risen. He is the general manager of the China region.

Not to mention that the Bi'an Group behind Chen Mo is now developing as well as Xiaomi. Just based on Chen Mo's voice in Xiaomi and his relationship with Lei Jun, the chips that both parties now have are not at the same level at all. If they really go to the gambling table, there is no need to consider luck and skills. Bi'an can defeat Innolux with just chips.

In fact, he had heard about Manager Wang's affairs before. At that time, he wanted to use this knife to test the attitudes of his employees and even Xiaomi. However, he did not expect that Wang was so bold as to use public funds for personal purposes. Even he did not dare to do that.

Since Chen Mo intervened, he would just take advantage of the situation and put things right, which was good.

He didn't want to be enemies with Chen Mo. There was a long way to go. As Bi'an's business scope grew, there might be cooperative transactions.

After some thought, Zhang Feng and the HR department made some arrangements to ensure the employees' benefits.
This time Chen Mo really returned to Beijing.

Just after getting off the plane and on the way back to the company, Chen Mo received a call from Zhou Shouzi.
"Boss, the acquisition of Yaoyao Taxi has been basically completed, 8000 million."

"Basic?"

"Wang Weijian wants to talk to you before signing!"

According to common sense, Chen Mo should have met and signed directly, but now his plan has changed. After thinking for a while, he replied,

"Well, I have something to do these days. Let him come over on December 12th."

"Ok."

Through the Inventec incident, Chen Mo realized one thing: even if the company's rules and regulations are established, even if it is used to scare the monkeys, it is only a temporary solution and not a fundamental solution.

After the rules are set, how to implement them and how to carry out daily supervision is far from enough to rely solely on the human resources department, the intranet forum and the chairman's mailbox. Whether there will be problems with personnel and whether the intranet administrator will be biased, the chairman's mailbox is the last choice for employees.

No matter what, there is an inherent inequality in the right to speak between management and employees, and when disagreements arise, compromises are often made at the employee level.

Unless the jar is broken and the employees can't stand it anymore, they will report it themselves.

If there are problems with management, can they only be reported through employees below?
He had thought too simply before.

The situation at Inventec should not be as serious as at Bi’an. At least the salaries are being paid normally. But will there be problems in other areas?

At present, the overall situation on the other side is calm on the surface. What is it like under the water?
Since the founding of Bi'an, Chen Mo, who has experienced all kinds of hardships of employees, has never considered himself a capitalist, but stood with the majority of people. After all, 90% of the overall staff of Bi'an are these ordinary employees.

Therefore, from the end of November to the beginning of December, Chen Mo was only busy with one thing: he wanted to create his own eyes and ears.

That is to establish the Bian'an Group Employees Union.
