Chapter 69 543 Working System and Reducing Efficiency and Increasing Costs
Lu Yu plans to divide the company into three groups after the expansion.

One group of people manages the life of the island owner, and a small group maintains the cat girl paradise.
There is also a group of people developing new works with urban themes and completing system tasks.

Oh yes, he also has a destiny mission, which requires him to pick a lucky person from the company and cause 50 critical hits to him.

When recruiting, also keep an eye on the lucky candidate.

With this in mind, Lu Yu called Sister Li over and conveyed his recruitment targets.

The operation and maintenance team of "My Leisurely Island Owner Life" is recruiting 8 people, two each for planning, programming, art, and business operations.

The "Cat Girl Paradise Adventure" operation and maintenance team is recruiting 3 people, mainly to do simple version maintenance and business cooperation docking.

Recruit another 10 people to form a new team to develop new works with urban themes.

In this way, the total number of employees in the company reaches 26.

The reason for setting this number is not because Lu Yu has any special considerations, but simply because there are only 30 workstations in the manor at present.

Lu Yu thought that these people should be enough. In the future, he would rely on these employees to earn leisure points for him, forming a new cycle of earning points.

We must not produce any more hit products, otherwise the company’s scale will expand again, which is visibly happening.

If the stall is too big, it is easy to be distracted, and if the business is too successful, it will attract a large number of busy people and madly deduct leisure points.

In order to prevent the company from producing new kings of volume and hot products by all means, it is necessary to consider the level of underlying system design.

Lu Yu sat in his seat and pondered for a moment, then said to Li Hongmei:
"Sister Li, as you know, when recruiting, the company's benefits system will be an important means of retaining talent, so let me talk about the two core elements of our company's current benefits system."

After that, he tapped on the keyboard, and two words appeared on the screen:

[543 work system], [reduced efficiency and increased costs]

Li Hongmei tilted her head and thought for a moment. Based on her past experience, she tentatively said:
"Mr. Lu, regarding the 543 work system, do you mean that we start work at 5 am every day and leave work at 4 pm, and work overtime three days a week?
I personally think that the working hours are too early. As you know, modern urban white-collar workers tend to get up quite late.

Lu Yu was stunned for a moment, then shook his head frantically.

Oh my goodness, what kind of sweatshop is this?
He explained:

"The so-called 543 work system means: 5 hours of work per day, 4 days a week, and 3 months of paid annual leave per year."

"what?"

Li Hongmei was stunned.

With her worldview, she couldn't understand Lu Yu's words and was stunned for a while.

Lu Yu didn't see Li Hongmei's expression and continued to explain:

"I work five hours a day, from 10am to 12pm, with a two-hour lunch break at noon, and from 2pm to 2pm.

We only work 4 days a week and have holidays starting from Friday.

The three months of paid annual leave each year do not conflict with statutory holidays. Of course, some employees prefer to stay at home and don't want to travel, so they don't use all of their annual leave. In this case, the remaining unused leave will be converted into full attendance pay and paid to the employee at the end of the year.

"Is this, this, this, this too exaggerated?"

Li Hongmei stuttered. She had been engaged in human resources work for more than ten years and was familiar with the attendance systems of companies in various industries, but she had never seen a boss who let himself go like this.

She subconsciously sniffed the air to see if there was any smell of alcohol. She suspected that the boss was bragging after drinking.

But it was obvious that Mr. Lu looked very sober.

"Is it an exaggeration?" Lu Yu asked back.

If it weren't for the system warning, he would have wanted to make it even more exaggerated.

This welfare system was the result of his constant attempts to test the limits of the system's warnings.

For example, why three months of paid annual leave? Because he had been experimenting, and the maximum the system could tolerate was three months.

"So...what do you mean by reduced efficiency and increased costs?"

Lu Yu knows all about it:

"Of course, this means reducing work efficiency and improving employee well-being. This system requires companies to ensure that employees' workloads are not saturated, and that daily workloads remain at a healthy level below 70%.

This requires daily monitoring of the work status of all employees. Once a situation occurs where they can barely complete their work near the end of the day, the company needs to intervene immediately, either by postponing the work schedule or by bringing in other unemployed employees for support.

In short, the core concept of reducing efficiency and increasing costs is to never do the work of two people alone if two people can do the work of one person. "

Li Hongmei was stunned on the spot:

“With all due respect, I don’t understand.

Working 5 hours a day is already easy enough, do you need to further reduce the workload within these 5 hours?

Besides, isn't there a lunch break at noon?"

Lu Yu patiently explained:

"Sister Li, I believe you can definitely do it.

Besides, even if the workload is not saturated, isn’t it natural to take a lunch break?"

Li Hongmei struggled for a moment and decided to give up.

She felt that the common sense of personnel management she knew could not shake Lu Yu's ideas.

What's more, as an employee, I would love to have better company benefits.

The only thing we need to worry about is whether the company will go bankrupt because the benefits are too good and the work is too easy...

"Oh, by the way, Mr. Lu, I'd like to discuss the performance evaluation system with you."

Lu Yu took over the performance appraisal assessment scale made by Li Hongmei, which is basically a relatively mature and mainstream evaluation system in the gaming industry, namely the key performance indicator (KPI).

He glanced at it casually and then waved his hand.

"Don't worry about this, Sister Li. I have my own set of standards."

Li Hongmei was dumbfounded again. The inspection forms she submitted were internationally recognized corporate management standards, even used by the Fortune 500 companies. What strange system had you created, Mr. Lu?

Lu Yu smiled but said nothing. He certainly had his own assessment criteria, which was performance appraisal based on the ability to earn leisure points.

The more an employee knows how to enjoy life and is crazy about showing off his points, the more precious he is in his eyes.

"In short, Sister Li, you should follow the rules I told you.

You must remember that the 543 work system and reducing efficiency and increasing costs are the cornerstones of the entire Taoyuanxiang company, and no one can shake it! "

Sister Li walked back with the report. She was shocked by this welfare system that seemed too fantastic, but at the same time, she felt relieved and fortunate.

The boss Lu she met was different from any leader she had met before.

But, she doesn't hate following such a boss.

As she walked, she suddenly remembered something and turned back again, hesitantly saying:

"Mr. Lu, I have a selfish motive that I would like to discuss with you.

As you know, the Frostwolf Studio of Youyi Company laid off a group of employees before. Many of them were fresh graduates or young people who had just graduated for one or two years. They are now having a hard time finding jobs outside. If they can't find a job, many of them will have to return to their hometowns.

So, I would like to ask you to give them a few interview opportunities.

Of course, I will also screen some resumes from outside the society so that everyone can compete fairly."

Lu Yu casually asked: "What was the reason for their dismissal?"

"They were ranked last in their performance reviews, and the citation for their dismissal was for being passive and slacking off at work, but..."

Lu Yu's eyes lit up and he interrupted Li Hongmei's explanation.

"Alright, alright, let them come for the interview."

It's human nature to not be proactive at work, it's normal.

If you are not active in eating, then there is something wrong with your thinking!
