Starting out as a drug dealer in 1988

In fact, Zhao Dagou and Zhao Mingliang seemed quite excited when they first took over the company.

At their age, being able to manage dozens of trucks and drivers, with hundreds of thousands of yuan flowing into the company account every month, is considered the pinnacle of life for them.

But as time went by, the two of them gradually felt unable to cope.

After all, their cultural level is there, and their social experience is also insufficient. In terms of company management, they pay more attention to brotherhood rather than practical management.

"Wenhao, when you're free, could you please come over to the company and tell us how to run the company? Also, try to identify some of the company's problems.

I feel like we've both tried our best, but there are still many problems.

Apart from what I told you before, such as the company's goods being frequently stolen, items being damaged, and employees being lazy, etc., I feel like these problems are unstoppable.

We've also looked at the relevant company rules and regulations and dealt with each case as it arose. But for some reason, these issues still persist."

Zhao Mingliang scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Do you really want me to tell you?" Zhao Wenhao pretended to be relaxed and teased.

Zhao Mingliang looked serious and said solemnly, "Of course I hope you can help me take the pulse. Besides, you are a major shareholder, so of course you have to make suggestions for the company."

"Right, right, right, Haozi. We know you're usually very busy, so we didn't bother to disturb you in the past. This time when we came back for the New Year, we wanted to find a chance to have a good talk with you."

Zhao Dagou quickly expressed his opinion.

Zhao Wenhao slapped them, then pushed the two forward, "Didn't you two ask me to play cards? It's New Year's Day, why are you talking about this? Let's go, hurry up, Zhao Chengwu must be waiting impatiently."

Zhao Wenhao hesitated to speak, his eyes flickering, obviously not wanting to continue talking about this topic.

Zhao Dagou and Zhao Mingliang looked at each other, shook their heads helplessly, and had no choice but to follow Zhao Wenhao.

They knew in their hearts that although they came to Zhao Wenhao to play cards, they actually wanted to get some good solutions from Zhao Wenhao to improve the current situation of the company.

After all, Zhao Wenhao has unique insights and experience in the business field and may be able to give them some valuable advice.

However, at this moment, Zhao Wenhao did not seem to want to discuss this issue in depth, which made them very disappointed.

In fact, Zhao Wenhao, who was walking in front, did not want to help his two good friends solve the problem, but he really did not want to discuss these serious things with them during the New Year.

Because once the discussion goes into depth, it may involve some sensitive topics and even cause unnecessary disputes and conflicts.

Therefore, he chose to avoid the topic temporarily, hoping to talk about it again when everyone was in a good mood.

But what he didn't know was that this approach made Zhao Dagou and Zhao Mingliang even more confused and worried.

It is impossible to say that Zhao Wenhao knows nothing about the situation of Hengyuan Freight Company.

You know, his second uncle Zhao Aimin also works in the company now.

However, Zhao Wenhao did not have any requirements. He just wanted Zhao Aimin to be a driver with peace of mind. If he did well in the future, he could become a squad leader or something like that.

Anyway, he plans to give some shares to his second uncle in the future so that he can have no worries about food and clothing.

The main problem facing freight companies at present is management.

Apart from the fact that Zhao Dagou and Zhao Mingliang are still a little immature, there are more problems with the use of people.

For example, the dispatch supervisor of the freight company is Zhao Dagou’s second uncle, and the deputy supervisor is Zhao Mingliang’s uncle.

For example, several squad leaders were relatives of their two families. Even the two managers and deputy managers of the business department were their cousins.

It is true that when one person succeeds, everyone around him will benefit. For a company like this, it is impossible to manage it well even if you are very capable.

This is completely different from Hengyuan Electronics.

Hengyuan Electronics also hired people from his hometown, but most of them were still at the bottom of the ladder. Zhao Wenhao would not promote anyone without ability.

Moreover, the company has strict rules and regulations, and no matter who violates the rules, there will be corresponding punishment without mercy.

Just like Zhao Wenhao’s own cousin Qian Mingkai, he was beaten up by him for this and apologized in front of all the workers in the workshop.

But it was different at Hengyuan Freight Company. Although there were rules and regulations formulated by Zhao Wenhao, if it really involved the relatives of Zhao Dagou and Zhao Mingliang, they would still show leniency.

How can we convince the people if this is the case?

What's more, all the important positions are occupied by your relatives, and others have no channels for promotion. Then who is willing to work sincerely for the company?

In other words, the freight company has a steady stream of orders from Hengyuan Electronics Company. Otherwise, such a company would have gone bankrupt and closed down long ago and would not have been able to survive.

Don’t Zhao Dagou and Zhao Mingliang know about these problems?

I'm afraid not necessarily.

It's just that the two young men are thin-skinned, and especially when facing relatives or elders, they are unable to use powerful measures.

According to Zhao Wenhao's temperament, if he were to do this, he would fire all these people, recruit talented people from society, and completely open up the upward channel.

Not only that, the company's rules and regulations must be strictly enforced, and the punishment will never be relaxed because of any relationship with anyone.

At the same time, the rewards are made public so that everyone can get them.

In this way, everyone can see hope.

It is not like now, where they say that they will strictly enforce the rules and regulations, but when it comes to relatives, if a grandfather or an uncle comes over and cries a few times, the punishment will be reduced.

By doing this, the company will never be put on the right track.

Now that he knows that these problems exist, can Zhao Wenhao correct them immediately?

If we consider it purely from the perspective of interests, as a major shareholder of the company, we can of course demand correction immediately.

To put it bluntly, the original idea behind Hengyuan Freight Company was to find work for the two good brothers. Furthermore, the freight industry certainly had a promising future, and if they succeeded, a future IPO was possible.

But although Zhao Wenhao discovered the problem, he was unable to break the window paper immediately.

If both of them accept it, that's fine.

But if you don't accept it, there will inevitably be some cracks in the relationship between the two parties.

Zhao Wenhao still cherishes this initial friendship and does not want to destroy the relationship between the two parties because of this business.

For Zhao Wenhao, he initially invested 150 million yuan and then lent 100 million yuan to the two to set up the company.

As for Hengyuan Electronics' delivery business, it doesn't matter who it is done for.

In Zhao Wenhao's opinion, it doesn't matter even if the 150 million is all wasted.

As for the problems with the freight company, we will wait until the two of them can no longer tolerate it, and then we will have a good discussion with them.
