The car giant started by marrying the daughter of the king

Chapter 298 Don’t miss the wealth that comes to your door
The heads of various departments summarized the work of the past year and looked forward to the work arrangements for 1983.

Next, naturally, it comes to the part that everyone is looking forward to, which is to determine this year’s bonuses and various benefits at the end of the year.

Last year, the Chaoyang Motorcycle Factory paid out three months' salary as a bonus, which was unique among the factories in the capital.

The factory's performance this year is better than last year, so everyone's expectations are naturally high.

"Director, we have discussed with the labor union and based on the workers' expectations, we propose that this year's year-end bonus remain the same as last year."

As the director of the Personnel and General Affairs Department, Li Xuewen must consider issues from Jiang Hui's perspective more often.

Giving more money is certainly a good thing, but if this plan makes Jiang Hui unhappy, it would not be worth it.

Anyway, his income is very high, so he doesn't need that one or two months' bonus.

"The three-month bonus last year was a special case during the factory's early days. Normal factories only give out holiday allowances at the end of the year, which is less than a month's salary."

"Our factory can continue to pay three months' salary as bonus this year, and everyone should be able to accept it."

Minister of Finance Lin Ying had discussed this topic with Li Xuewen before the meeting, and naturally supported Li Xuewen's point of view today.

"Minister Li and Minister Lin are not wrong. Last year's three-month bonus was already eye-catching. If we continue to increase the number of bonus months, I'm sure the factory managers of other factories will have opinions."

Hou Guoming is older and has a more thorough understanding of human nature than most people.

Especially after experiencing those special years, he saw things more clearly.

It seems that how Chaoyang Motorcycle Manufacturing Plant distributes bonuses has nothing to do with other factories, but in fact it is not the case.

After workers from other factories hear about the situation at the Chaoyang Factory, they will definitely have all kinds of discussions and may even ask their own factories to follow suit in issuing bonuses.

Invisibly, it also caused trouble for the factory leaders of other factories.

The other party will not necessarily blame the workers in their own factory. They will only think that the incident was caused by Chaoyang Factory and put the blame on Jiang Hui, the factory director.

Such a weird thing would definitely happen in China.

"Many people in our factory left from various factories in the past two years. They took considerable risks when they came here."

"Now that the factory is developing very well, it is only natural to share the dividends of development with employees."

"This year's year-end bonus will be set at four months, one month longer than last year."

"At the same time, the various material benefits for the New Year can be more generous than last year, so that everyone can have a good New Year."

Jiang Hui doesn't want to be a good person by doing charity, but he wants to spend a fortune to buy horse bones.

In the future, BMW Technology will have more than just a joint venture project like the Chaoyang Motorcycle Factory in China.

In addition to the already established BMW Motorrad, other companies will certainly be established in the future.

Given the employment system of this era, it will definitely be necessary to poach people from other factories at that time.

At this time, with the Chaoyang Motorcycle Manufacturing Factory as an example, whether it is directly acquiring some factories in the future or poaching people from peers, it can reduce a lot of resistance.

After all, the role model is right there.

As for whether other factories would have objections, Jiang Hui was not very worried.

Because as long as Chaoyang Motorcycle Manufacturing Plant develops rapidly, it will definitely make some of its peers dissatisfied.

In that case, then there's no need to worry about it.

"Director, our finance department has prepared enough cash to pay this month's salary and bonus at any time."

"only……"

Lin Ying looked at Jiang Hui with some confusion.

She felt that it was not right for her to persuade him, nor was it right for her not to persuade him.

"That's it for the bonus issue. Let's discuss other matters next."

Jiang Hui didn't waste any more time on this matter and went straight to the next topic.

With the end of this summary meeting, the factory quickly issued a formal notice to tell everyone about this year's bonus distribution.

Four months' salary will be paid out as a bonus in one lump sum, plus this month's salary, which means everyone can directly get five months' salary.

This is definitely a very considerable income.

You know, although everyone usually has a salary of a few dozen yuan, after daily expenses, they basically can't save much money.

The bonus this time is equivalent to adding a few hundred yuan in savings to the family.

Regardless of the family, these are very impressive numbers.

"Dagui, I heard you gave out 16 months of bonuses this year?"

Lan Qiaosheng is a third-level worker at the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant and a brother-in-law of Wang Dagui at the Chaoyang Motorcycle Manufacturing Plant.

Two years ago, Lan Qiaosheng's income was similar to Wang Dagui's, but his benefits were much better.

After all, the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant has always been profitable, unlike the Chaoyang Motorcycle Manufacturing Plant which was once on the verge of bankruptcy.

But after BMW Technology started cooperating with Chaoyang Motorcycle Factory, the situation has changed dramatically.

The Chaoyang factory, which originally couldn't even pay its employees' salaries, suddenly became powerful.

Last year, they even gave out three months’ salary as a bonus, and their welfare packages are second to none in the capital region.

Even though the welfare of the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant is considered very good, there is still a gap compared to the Chaoyang Plant.

Lan Qiaosheng's mentality suddenly became a little unstable.

"It's not that exaggerated. If they really gave out bonuses for 16 months, I think the First Ministry of Machine Building would have a talk with our factory director."

"Who knows what kind of accusation will be put on him by then."

Wang Dagui felt amused when he saw the conflicted expression on his brother-in-law's face.

In the past, this brother-in-law often talked nonsense in front of me.

Especially after the new BJ212 was launched, the welfare benefits and popularity of Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant are definitely unrivaled in the capital area.

At that time, Chaoyang Factory was experiencing its most difficult period since its establishment.

Comparing the two, one can imagine how big the gap is.

"I also think it's unlikely. Not to mention paying out bonuses for 16 months a year, even paying out wages for 16 months a year is very exaggerated."

Lan Qiaosheng breathed a sigh of relief.

But before he could say anything else, Wang Dagui added, "Our factory's performance this year is good. We have produced more than 15 motorcycles in total, making us the largest motorcycle manufacturer in the country."

"So the factory gave everyone four months' salary as bonus this year, plus the January salary, so this time we received five months' salary."

There is no such thing as salary confidentiality in this era.

Under normal circumstances, the wages of each person in each factory are very transparent.

After all, wage standards are fixed, and each factory has very limited room for maneuver.

Within the same factory, everyone knows each other well, and is particularly aware of each other's income situation.

The fact that Chaoyang Factory paid out four months' bonuses would surely be known to everyone soon. "Did they pay out four months' salary as bonuses this year?"

Lanqiao felt sour when she gave birth.

Although the performance of Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant was very good, the most they could do was to pay an extra month's salary as a bonus.

This is already considered the top treatment among companies in the automotive industry.

It is unheard of that Chaoyang Factory pays four months' salary as bonus at one time.

"Yes, our eldest and second son both work in the factory. The three of us, father and son, received 500 to 600 yuan this month."

"I just heard that Wangfujing Department Store has just received a new batch of TVs. I plan to go take a look this Sunday."

"It's a pity that color TVs are too expensive. If I buy one this year, I won't have much spare money. I can only buy a bigger black-and-white TV first."

The smug look on Wang Dagui's face could not be concealed no matter how hard he tried.

The situation of their house is really rare in the nearby alleys.

Not to mention relatives like Lan Qiaosheng would be envious, the other neighbors were even more envious with tears in their eyes.

"Is your new factory going to be completed soon? Do you still need workers?"

In the past, Lan Qiaosheng had heard that some people in the factory were trying to go to Chaoyang Factory, but he himself had never thought about leaving.

In his opinion, he could work at the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant for the rest of his life, so why bother?

But I didn’t expect that in just two years, the world seemed to have changed.

The once inconspicuous Chaoyang factory is now booming and has become the most attractive factory in the capital area.

"The workers have already been recruited, so they won't be needed in the short term."

"However, at this current rate of development, our factory may have to start introducing new production lines, and we will definitely need more workers at that time."

After Wang Dagui said this, Lan Qiaosheng immediately showed a look of disappointment on his face.

There is no way to take such uncertain things seriously.

"Our factory has been doing very well in the past two years, especially last year when the new sedan was launched and sales were quite good."

"But the various welfare benefits have not improved much compared to before, and it is estimated that they will not be able to get better in the future."

"There are more and more places to spend money at home now, especially after my parents got sick one after another, my salary is not enough anymore."

When he reached middle age, Lan Qiaosheng began to feel the malice of life.

There are more and more things to bear on my shoulders, but there is no one to rely on.

The invisible pressure continued to increase, making Lan Qiaosheng pursue money more.

After all, most of the difficulties are essentially caused by lack of money.

Otherwise, many problems can actually be solved.

"Some people in our factory are going to Shenzhen to join BMW after the Chinese New Year. It is said that their salary will at least double, or even triple or quadruple what it is now."

"If you want a high salary, you can consider joining BMW. Then one year of work will be equivalent to several years at the Capital Automobile Factory."

After all, he was his relative, so Wang Dagui still provided some useful information.

In this day and age, information transmission is sometimes very blocked.

Many people still don't know that BMW recruits technicians and workers with high salaries.

"Are you going to Shencheng?"

Leaving one's hometown is still a very challenging thing for people of this generation.

Especially for people like Lan Qiaosheng who have stable jobs, it is even more difficult to make a decision.

But thinking of the huge difference in salary, he was a little tempted.

"Yes, the BMW factory is in Shenzhen. If you want to join, you must go to work in Shenzhen."

"But don't worry. They are also building family buildings and dormitory buildings. You might have a chance to get a house there."

"After all, you are now a level 4 worker, which is relatively rare in the workshop."

Wang Dagui saw that his brother-in-law was a little moved, so he added some information.

"If my father and I were not working at the Chaoyang factory, I would have planned to join BMW."

Lan Qiaosheng was a little hesitant and conflicted, but after hearing what Wang Dagui said, he immediately made a decision in his heart.

Shenzhen is Shenzhen. I have just turned 40, so I can give it a try!
……

"Director Jiang, this year our station is going to broadcast the Spring Festival Gala to the national audience. Deputy Director Huang wants to refer to some foreign practices and find some advertisers to cooperate with and provide some advertising support."

"However, many companies are hesitant about advertising on TV, especially on such a grand and special occasion."

"Plus, time is tight and we haven't found a suitable partner yet."

"Is your Chaoyang Motorcycle Factory interested in advertising on Huaxia TV's Spring Festival Gala?"

"Don't worry, the advertising fee won't be expensive. It's just a symbolic fee of 10,000 yuan."

Fang Siwen is a reporter for China TV and has interviewed Jiang Hui several times before.

Now that the station is worried about the advertising sponsors for the Spring Festival Gala, he immediately thought of Jiang Hui.

In his opinion, the Chaoyang Motorcycle Manufacturing Plant was most likely to achieve a breakthrough in this matter.

After all, they are a Sino-foreign joint venture factory, and many of their products are exported to earn foreign exchange, and they are also well-known in the country.

Sure enough, after hearing Fang Siwen's words, Jiang Hui immediately became interested.

The Spring Festival in 1983 was the first time that China had a Spring Festival Gala.

If BMW motorcycles were advertised on it, the effect would be absolutely amazing.

Although there is no need to worry about sales now, no one will complain that their products are too popular.

"If the Central Radio and Television Station needs our help, Chaoyang Motorcycle Factory will certainly come forward to assist."

"We have decided to be the advertiser for the Spring Festival Gala!"

There is no need for so much politeness. Just express your willingness to "help" directly and frankly, which can be regarded as doing a favor for Fang Siwen.

At least that's what Fang Siwen himself thinks.

"Then I will go back and report to Deputy Director Huang immediately, and then sign the contract."

"If you need it, our station will also assist you in filming commercials."

Fang Siwen was overjoyed. He didn't expect that this task could be accomplished so easily.

For Jiang Hui, this kind of wealth that comes right to his doorstep should be taken away.
