Chapter 159 Professional Manager
ps: These two chapters are quite boring, just some of the author's ideas. It's too late to write the plot slowly, so I'd just make a splash here. It doesn't matter if you skip it, it won't have much impact on the subsequent plot development. Friends can choose whether to subscribe.

Since April 1979, a series of major institutional personnel changes occurred in the military sub-district.
First, the Industrial and Mining Enterprise Management Group was established, with Zhou Xiaoshan as the president of the management company and Cui Guoping, former Party Secretary of the Precision Machinery Factory, served as the secretary.
According to the order of the Military Sub-district, all state-owned industrial and mining enterprises that have been completed and put into production and are under construction and are classified as subsidiaries.
To facilitate management, the group has set up departments such as mining, machinery, electronics, chemicals, and power, which are classified into corporate management of subordinate state-owned enterprises. Most of the heads of these departments have been in Hong Kong for two years and have performed well.
The reason why only one group is set up is that the scale of the military sub-district enterprises is not too large and there is no need to set up too many institutions. If the assets of the military sub-district are expanded in the future and it is powerless to cover everything by relying on it alone, it will be divided into more management companies according to the department's ownership.
This is a model for Japan and South Korea to merge to create a super-large comprehensive consortium to which the military sub-district belongs.
In the new management regulations, after completing the production tasks assigned by a certain proportion of the military sub-district, state-owned enterprises can use additional manpower, material resources, and equipment to produce according to their own development, and according to their own development. Thus, they adopt the form of walking on both the government and the market order, forcing enterprises to gradually move to the market, from easy to difficult, slowly adapt to competition, and have a certain ability to survive independently and compete.
After the government and enterprises are decoupled, the company's leaders no longer have political lines, but are business operations, and can be promoted to the group president at most.
In the new structure, the group president and party secretary are half a level lower than the head of the civil affairs department of the military sub-district. The domestic cadre level is calculated as the vice-national level.
In this path of promotion, corporate cadres actually become professional managers of the military sub-district, full-time business operations. Their assessment basis is mainly the business efficiency of the company. Cadres with poor performance will lose the opportunity to be promoted. Those with poor grades will be dismissed and transferred back to the School of Economics and Management for further studies. During the further study, they only receive their seniority and level wages to maintain their lives, which is slightly better than those who can only eat their own professional managers after being dismissed abroad.
The reorganized state-owned enterprises are also facing bankruptcy crisis while loosening their ties.
Since it is a subsidiary institution of the group company, when the company is not well-managed, the military sub-district will not come forward, but the group will consider the rescue or not from its role. If you think about it from the overall perspective and feel that there is no need to save it, you will let it go bankrupt and fire all employees. After that, you will organize asset liquidation with the court, or merge with other companies to establish a new company, and may be cancelled.
A cadre of an enterprise has only two chances of failure, and will be demoted every time he fails. If the third time still fails, it proves that he has no management ability at all. After the superior interviews, he will change his position on his voluntary basis and start from scratch.
Of course, the military sub-district does not force corporate cadres to succeed every time. For cadres who do not recognize the group's ruling, they can file an arbitration requirement with the government labor arbitration committee and conduct multiple trials to determine how much responsibility the cadre should bear in the responsibility for the business failure of the enterprise.
Even if you transfer a job, the cadres' past efforts will not be erased. The job level may be low, but their seniority and skill level wages will still be retained and will not be cancelled. The starting point is still much better than other new employees, at least there is no problem making a living. As for whether the psychological barriers arising from the gap can be passed, it is not a personal problem that the organization can solve.
In order to maintain the seriousness of the appointment and removal of corporate cadres, promoters must also bear joint and several liability.
If the business cadres recommended by the promoter fail to operate, the promoter himself will be held accountable, depending on the amount of losses caused, the salary and bonus range will be reduced. Under strict requirements, personnel management cadres must also keep their eyes open, carefully select, and find the most suitable business operator.
If there are continuous problems with the cadres recommended by the promoter, it means that their vision is not suitable for personnel work at all. Transferring a job is inevitable. In addition, it is possible that the public security organs and party discipline organs jointly verify them to determine whether there is any illegitimate fraud during the appointment process, whether they accept bribes, and whether they have conspired with the other party to embezzle state property. Once verified, they will be punished by party discipline and national laws.
Adhering to the principle of carrots and sticks, there will be rewards when there is punishment.
For those recommended corporate cadres who have achieved significant results, their salary and bonus will also rise according to the income ratio. If they do have a pair of sharp eyes and the promoted corporate cadres have achieved good results, their monthly income will be as high as thousands or tens of thousands. This is natural.
Similarly, if a business operator does a good job, he will not only be promoted, his salary and bonus will increase significantly, and he will live a good life, but also receive commendation titles such as the gold medal manager awarded by the group; as well as spiritual and material returns of varying values such as gold pens, famous watches, electrical appliances, cars, overseas travel, etc.
Through a series of measures such as rewarding diligence and punishing laziness, there is a whip behind him and candy in front of him. They urge and tempt corporate cadres to not wait or rely on them, actively exert their subjective initiative and do their best to do their best to operate the business.

At the same time as the industrial and mining enterprise management group was established, a commercial management group was established, with Pan Meifeng as the president and Li Guodong, the former secretary of the precision instrument factory.
Some time ago, Guan Fei had a lot of business and had no time to coordinate the establishment of an industrial and mining enterprise management group, so he did not arrange work for Zhou Xiaoshan, the president of the group who was scheduled to be held.
As a result, Pan Meifeng, who was originally scheduled to stay for a week, traveled around the military sub-district for a full month, accompanied by Zhou Xiaoshan.
The longer the time, the more in-depth the understanding of the military division, Pan Meifeng became more sure of her judgment: this is a vibrant and promising political group.
After Zhou Xiaoshan asked Guan Fei for instructions, Pan Meifeng had visited the army for a few days and had a clearer understanding of the armed forces of the military sub-district.
After two years of adjustment, non-combatants were no longer present in the more than 6,000 commanders and fighters in the military sub-district. Among them, the engineering battalion was dismantled into two parts: one absorbed several training-trained private construction teams and converted into a company one of the Xincheng Construction Group. It competed and cooperated with the other second company, which consisted of all private construction teams, to participate in the construction of the new city.
Another part of the engineering battalion was openly hung with the name of Xincheng Zhouqiao Company, but it was actually converted into a Zhouqiao force, specializing in the military barracks, bridge erection, fortification construction and other projects, but no longer occupies the military establishment.
The civilian personnel, logistics personnel and other non-combat soldiers of the military sub-district command center and battalions are all soldiers in the name of civilian civilian personnel, turning all the troops into combat personnel. Whether they are in the organization or not, all the files of the troops are archived uniformly and recorded truthfully according to the service life, level, rewards, etc. When the troops are transferred, these non-commissioned personnel who do not occupy the quota will often transform and appear on the list of active-duty soldiers and become commanders of the troops.
The military sub-district has more than 6,800 troops in name, that is, more than 6,800 combat soldiers who are waiting for battle and can be transferred out to fight at any time, without a single redundant officer.
If all non-combatants outside the staff, documents, communications, logistics and other non-combatants were included, the actual number of troops in the military sub-district was nearly 10,000!
Seeing that the military sub-district had strong soldiers and strong horses, the two north and south defense fortresses were clustered, and the defensive situation was almost the fortress, Pan Meifeng had great confidence in the security of the military sub-district, and the idea of taking advantage of the situation was even more urgent.
After repeated thinking, she applied to Guan Fei to stay in the military sub-district and attached a huge business plan of more than 50,000 words to the letter.
She said that the development speed of the military sub-district is beyond imagination and full of vitality. However, vitality also means overgrowing weeds, and there are too many unreasonable and disorderly places in management.
In the plan, she said that the planned economy adopted by the military sub-district can indeed gather all the strength, concentrate funds, manpower and material resources to accomplish major tasks, thus achieving leapfrog development in a short period of time.
But according to her observation, the shortcomings of the planned economy are also very significant.
The most obvious thing is that the front-line counter staff in the bank, telephone and other window industry felt that they had put on this dress and became an "official family". With the relatively boring work day after day, these employees' initial enthusiasm gradually faded and began to show laziness. They no longer spoke enthusiastically, and ignored the customers, with a tone of "I'm just like this, do it if I want to do it, get out if I don't do it." After only a few times when I went to the bank, I saw the counter staff quarreling with depositors three times.
There are also small-scale service industries spontaneously formed by the masses. Although under the instructions of Guan Fei, the military sub-district tried its best to promote its development, due to the manager's vision and level, no scientific analysis, the development was very disorderly. The people did not know what to make money, and when they saw which business was done well, they rushed to the scene, resulting in vicious competition and profits dropped sharply.
In the newly built street shops in the new city, you can often see stickers for closing. Many stores look very new, and they should have closed down because of the deterioration of the business environment. The speed from opening to closing is faster than in Hong Kong.
In addition, a large amount of materials purchased from the military sub-district are from China and Hong Kong. Which materials are the most needed by the masses, which are unsold goods; which goods can be found to be better produced, which goods are cheaper and cheaper; which require a large amount of stocking, and which only require a small amount of stocking. These military sub-districts, including the commercial department cadres hired from the country, do not have a accurate number, and are basically fooling around.
Some things in the warehouse are fancy but full of warehouses. They cannot be sold. In order to avoid damage from damp mice, they have to regularly organize the warehouse, which is a huge waste.
The warehouse management is so chaotic that it is inevitable that there will be stolen materials.
At least she saw that the warehouse had not paid for the storage, and took out a down jacket from the warehouse and stuffed it into a bag, swaying away.
She didn't know whether the other party paid the bill in advance or kept the bill afterwards, but this showed that the rectification of the warehouse had reached an urgent point.
Therefore, Pan Meifeng submitted this plan and put forward a lot of suggestions on the business environment, business strategies, management and implementation of the military sub-district.
For example, when purchasing materials, she suggested setting up offices in China and Hong Kong, focusing on understanding the supply status of the materials, preparing a product list, indicating the name, origin, quality, quantity, transportation method, delivery date, price and other information, and regularly sending the list back to the military sub-district by fax, so that the logistics department can have rules to follow. After the material department has selected the purchase list, it will send it back to each office, order, pay, and ship it uniformly, so as to purchase marketable goods, accurately control the quantity, and be easy to centrally count, check the accounts after arrival, and save transportation costs.
After the materials are sent back to the military sub-district, the management of inventory, booking, entry and exiting the warehouse also has strict management procedures to prevent the stolen prisoners.
Pan Meifeng grew up in a metropolis with extremely developed business. She watched her father do business since she was a child and attended various commercial receptions with her father. Under the influence of her, her vision and skills were stronger than those of mainland cadres. After practicing at Hasbro, her abilities have improved to the next level.
The planners were extensive, and they did detailed analysis on the various commercial industries in the military sub-district, and came up with a set of solutions that seemed good at least.
After reading this plan, Guan Fei greatly appreciated him.
The cadres trained by the military sub-district itself and domestic business departments all come from the planned economy, and they are marked by the planned economy in their bones, as if they are sitting in the yamen than providing services.
This is still because he assisted in the preliminary planning and deliberately tried to create a business prosperity environment, which was so bad. If he hadn't been without him at the beginning, he would have been even more messy. Either feeding a bunch of rats or raising a bunch of old men.
He had long wanted to change this, but he couldn't find a suitable person to take charge of the overall situation.
The former guards who have trained in Hong Kong are loyal to him, but the exercise time is still too short, and at most it is a rough understanding. Let them slowly improve their experience in industrial and mining enterprise groups, combining the experience they have learned from Hong Kong, which should be of great use in ten or eight years.
Commercial circulation is more complicated and requires more flexibility. It is difficult for a layman who has only a slight understanding to play with it. There are too many ways to fool him.
Pan Meifeng's volunteering and this detailed plan made his eyes shine.
After more than ten days of revision, he expanded the planning book to 360,000 words, involving more industries, richer content, more detailed management links, and more scientific plans. He handed over to Pan Meifeng, which became the highest treasure book for her to be in charge of the business field for decades since then.
