Rebirth in 1998 is also a kind of life

It has been a week since I returned to the factory.

During this week, unlike the excitement of all the employees in the factory, the head of the production department wanted to jump off the building anxiously.

After the deeds of Quancheng Soda Factory were reported by CCTV, TV stations from all over Qilu also followed up. For a while, this medium-sized state-owned enterprise with a provincial prefix became a star enterprise in Qilu together with the meat joint factory.

Knowing the huge amount of donations made by the Quancheng Soda Factory and the heavy losses this time, various departments and local companies have placed huge orders to the Quancheng Soda Factory under the pretext of employee benefits.

And if it's just that, it's fine. Although there are many orders, but with mutual understanding, the delivery can be postponed for two or three months.

But the orders placed by the purchasers who came to the door waving banknotes really killed him.

With the fermentation of public opinion, Qilu people's impulsive consumption under the overwhelming sense of regional honor has made the demand for spring city soda an astronomical figure.

Every terminal boss, especially those in the catering department, is miserable. At least half of the local customers will leave when they hear that there is no Quancheng soda. You can’t persuade them to change drinks. They will point their noses at you and scold you for being unworthy of being a Qilu person, and they will not even take care of your own business. If you encounter someone with a temper, they may even punch you twice.

Forced by the market, Quancheng soda has become a kind of hard currency in the eyes of purchasers. As long as you have this thing in your hand, you can even force those terminal bosses to agree to your distribution plan.

Ever since, these green-eyed businessmen waved banknotes every day, besieging the gates of the sales department and the production department, begging grandpa to sue grandma for purchases, let alone this month, can they be before the end of the year? Production is still a big question mark.

…………

Li Ming got into his office in some embarrassment, and then called Yang Zhu in by phone.

"Boy, why do you think I'm so depressed? I was worried about the poor sales before, but now that the sales are so good, I worry even more. Hey... what can I do now?" Li Ming complained sadly.

Just the day before yesterday, there was a looting incident by purchasers. The other party arranged more than 30 people at the gate of the factory to surround the trucks filled with soda, and then threw down several stacks of banknotes and directly dumped all the soda in the two trucks. Evacuate.For this reason, Lin Xiong called the chief of the safety department and the chief of the production department to the office and scolded them all afternoon.

"What else can I do? Let's do it blindly!" Yang Zhu unceremoniously opened the drawer of Li Ming's desk, took out the key to open the iron cabinet behind him, and then started rummaging through the cabinet.

"Hey, hey, boy, aren't you very capable, you can help me find a way!? Director Lin gave the order." Li Ming turned a blind eye to Yang Zhu's behavior of snatching his treasure.

"Cut! What a big deal. As for worrying like this?" Yang Zhu happily hugged a box of Tieguanyin in his arms, and then looked at it with disdain. Do not take the initiative!

"Oh? Do you have a solution? Say it quickly!" Li Ming's eyes lit up, and he closed the iron cabinet behind him with both hands as usual.

"How difficult is this? There are so many beverage factories in Qilu that are struggling to operate. Let them help us produce. Have you heard of OEM?" Yang Zhu peeped out through the crack of the door, looking ready to leave at any time. look.

Hearing Yang Zhu's words, Li Ming began to think seriously. He naturally knew about OEM (OEM production). In terms of the formula, it is impossible to say that there is any secret recipe. If you really want to produce it, let alone those regular factories, small workshops on the side of the road can imitate it for you with almost the same taste.

"This method is not bad, but..." Li Ming hesitated.

"Cut, are you worried about the subsequent reorganization plan??" Yang Zhu could see the doubts of this guy at a glance.

Li Ming nodded. Based on what Director Lin revealed, this reorganization is not a small move, and now the higher-ups have taken the lead in talking to various companies. If Director Lin agrees to this OEM plan, the present and future Judging from the demand for orders, at least two medium-sized beverage factories need to set up horsepower for long-term production.

But in this way, will the higher-ups feel that they are pulling the mountain to add weight to themselves, forcing them to divide the cake again?

Hearing this guy's doubts, Yang Zhu curled his lips: "Old Li, I'm not talking about you. As a party member, it's a good thing that you are willing to obey the arrangements above, but... I see that you haven't understood the real thinking of the above. !"

Li Ming glared, displeased: "Don't look down on people, you boy. The higher-ups just don't want to see the loss of state-owned assets due to the intervention of private capital. Therefore, some state-owned enterprises that are not operating well and those that are not bad like us Reorganize into a new company?"

Yang Zhu sneered: "Then what? Continue to die slowly after the reorganization, waiting for the next reorganization?"

Li Ming was silent for a while, this was exactly what Director Lin was deeply worried about during this time.

After the reorganization, even if some non-performing assets are stripped off, the number of employees will suddenly expand several times, which will inevitably bring heavy financial pressure to the entity that was originally operating in a relatively good condition.

That's all, but after merging into a new company, the most terrible thing is the internal friction of complex personnel relations and wrangling in management - in terms of interest attribution, mountain faction, work habits, self-esteem of qualifications, inertia of thinking, etc. Under a combination of factors, it is very common for government orders to fail.

In this era of increasingly fierce market competition, if such a self-made situation really occurs, it will be a matter of time before the Quancheng Soda Factory is dragged to death.

"What do you mean?" Li Ming faintly guessed the meaning of Yang Zhu's words.

Yang Zhu sighed: "After seeing so many failure cases in the past ten years, what kind of broken things will happen after the reorganization of state-owned enterprises, do you think the higher-ups don't know?"

"But even if they know, they don't have much to do. Countless examples tell them that if this kind of restructuring case is to make the company survive smoothly, there are nothing more than two methods;"

"The first way is to raise the title of the company by improving the national strategic position of the company. If there is a higher level of administrative vacancies, after the core management team is upgraded to the administrative level, it will naturally be able to pass the tough The means are to open up the various lines of the enterprise so that it can realize the most basic normal operation."

"But it's a pity that our factory belongs to the fast beverage industry. If I'm not wrong, the companies that we reorganized with us also belong to the fast-moving consumer goods field. Companies in this field, unless your market size has reached the extreme, otherwise Don't even think about administrative promotion."

Li Ming nodded, no matter from which point of view, the soda factory has nothing to do with the words "strategic position".

Yang Zhu continued: "The second one... is that we can only hope that during the reorganization process, a strong man will fall from the sky; he has both ability and courage. Docile and obedient, and then lead the reorganized enterprise to run all the way.”

"Hmph, our factory has grown from being half-dead a few months ago to being somewhat famous now. So guess what, the higher-ups have other expectations for Director Lin?"

Li Ming could be considered to be thinking about it: "Are you planning to let Factory Manager Lin raise the gangsters to respect themselves!?"

Yang Zhu let out a stern voice: "Can you speak, what do you mean raising a bandit's self-respect!? This is called narrow emperor to order the princes!"

"Hmph, after all, companies still have to rely on profits to eat."

"If my estimate is correct, among the reorganized subsidiaries, our soda water business scale should be one of the best. That is to say, for a long time after the reorganization, the new company will mainly rely on our soda water to support;"

"So, as long as we gradually transfer our production capacity to the OEM factories, and think carefully about the terms of the contract settlement, coupled with our original dealer plan..."

"Hey, when the time comes, if you are obedient, then we will naturally be willing to eat what we need, and ask those dealers and OEM factories for some money in advance to support the company with a cheeky face;"

"If you really give me five horses and six horses... Hehe, I'm sorry, everything will go according to the contract!"

Looking at the smile on Yang Zhu's face, Li Ming thought of the scene of thousands of mouths jammed at the door, yelling at those people, and couldn't help shivering, and said twice: "You boy... I'm just curious, you It looks so sinister, does your family know?"

Yang Zhu's face darkened, he gave this guy a hard slap, and then opened the office door, exuding a look of grievance after being scolded, breaking through layers of purchasers, and under the gloating eyes of all his colleagues, returned to my desk...
