After Sun He invited Zhao Yi to sit down and asked his secretary to serve him two cups of tea, he took a stack of documents from his desk, then sat across from Zhao Yi and handed the documents to Zhao Yi.
Zhao Yi took the document over and read it carefully. Since the document was not thick, Zhao Yi finished reading it after a while and handed the document back to Sun He.
"From the documents, the company's situation is not optimistic. Please tell me the specific situation and see if there is a solution." Zhao Yi said seriously.
“Because we have only been established for such a short period of time, many things have just begun. Whether it is the company’s operating model or related business cooperation, we have only made preliminary contacts and only reached an intention.
Our current fleet has a total tonnage of 6 million tons, mainly 20 300,000-ton large oil tankers taken over from Huaxia International Petrochemical Company. They are mainly responsible for the oil transportation business of Huaxia International Petrochemical Company.
As for other ships, we have placed orders with Haiyan Shipping Company, and they are still under construction. It is estimated that it will take until the end of this year to reach a certain scale.
According to our plan, the fleet will initially consist of 10 million tons of oil tankers, 200,000 standard container ships, 5 million tons of ore ships and 400,000 cubic meters of liquefied natural gas ships.
Only by reaching this standard can we initially meet the maritime freight needs of our brother companies. According to Haiyan Shipping Company's plan, these ships will not be delivered to us until the end of this year at the earliest and early next year at the latest. "
When Zhao heard this, he intervened and said: "These are all objective factors. I just came from Haiyan Shipping Company. They have already tried their best to achieve this goal.
These are all difficulties caused by objective factors. It takes time to break through. It is impossible to solve this difficulty immediately. "
Sun He understood what Zhao Yi meant, and he said: "We also know that this is the actual situation, and Haiyan Shipping Company has done its best.
Therefore, we will plan the transportation arrangements between us and our brother companies based on the foreseeable fleet size and ship availability, and strive to carry out the orderly transfer and handover of transportation tasks.
In order to ensure that the ship can be put into operation immediately after it is handed over to us, we have done the following things.
The first is to enrich our staff size. Our company has just been in operation for a short time, and there is a very shortage of talents in all aspects, especially those related to ocean transportation, and our country is even more lacking.
Before the reform and opening up, our export trade was not much, and we certainly did not have many ocean shipping talents. After the reform and opening up, our export trade has increased, but our ocean transportation is all entrusted to international third-party giants.
Therefore, although the number of talents in this area has increased in our country in recent years, these numbers do not match our country's overall trade scale at all.
Therefore, we have no way to find enough ready-made professional talents. We must train ourselves to have enough talents available.
So our current main job is to recruit people from outside. Hong Kong has always been a trade transit center in East Asia, and there are relatively abundant talents in this field there.
Therefore, we have currently entrusted a human resources company to help us recruit talents in this area in Hong Kong, including ocean logistics and transportation management talents and related professionals on ocean-going ships.
The second is to establish our talent training system. According to the development trend of our country's economy, our country's export trade will still have a lot of room for growth in the future.
So for a long time to come, there will always be a gap in our own ocean shipping talents. Although Hong Kong and other places have solved the urgent need for us, their previous trade scale was much smaller than ours. .
In other words, relying solely on the introduction of external talents can only solve immediate needs, but cannot solve our talent shortage problem in this area in the long run.
And our company is determined to become the largest ocean shipping company in the country and even the top in the world, so we must solve this pain point of lack of talent.
Therefore, it is particularly important to establish our own training system. The mentoring model we currently adopt is that after hiring outside talents, we will arrange at least two people next to them to learn.
In addition to the relatively high requirements for talent skills in key positions, positions such as ordinary sailors only need to study for a period of time before they can be well qualified for such jobs.
The third step is to establish our business development team. Although the business we currently receive is mainly transferred from sister companies, and it will be these businesses that will support the company's development for a long time to come.
But precisely because of this, we should establish our own business development team, expand our business scope from the sister company to the outside, and gradually increase the proportion of external business to a certain proportion.
The fourth is to establish our own port development and operation subsidiary. However, our company has only been in operation for a short period of time. It will take some time to do this. At present, this subsidiary has just been established and has not yet been officially operational. .
Since there is currently a shortage of port operation talents in our country, we plan to hire relevant talents from outside to join the company, run the company, and then slowly cultivate our own talent team.
The fifth is to actively join and organize the establishment of relevant shipping associations. At present, we are actively seeking to join the International Shipping Association and strive to become one of its members. This is of great significance and role for us to carry out maritime transportation.
Although we have only been in operation for a short period of time, we already have a lot of tonnage of ships and already have a certain influence, so we are quite confident about joining this organization.
However, this is just joining an organization established by others, and we must abide by the relevant rules and regulations set by others. It is inevitable that when interests conflict fiercely, our interests may not be well protected.
Therefore, we also need to actively organize and establish our own relevant maritime organizations. However, these are our long-term plans. If we want to independently organize and establish such an influential association in the short term, it is still beyond our capabilities.
However, we still need to follow our own steps. Our first step is to seek to establish a domestic shipping association. This aspect of work is relatively easy to do and is most likely to be successful.
The second step is to establish the East Asia Maritime Association with countries in East Asia and Southeast Asia. If our strength can be enhanced to a certain extent in the short term, then we can directly establish the Asian Maritime Association.
After the second step is completed, then our shipping strength will reach a certain level, and we can actively organize and establish the International Shipping Association to organize shipping companies around the world and coordinate related affairs. "
When Zhao heard Sun He's plan for Qianship Shipping Company, he nodded and expressed his approval of his plan. Although there were some flaws in it, it was relatively complete.
He said: "I agree with what you said, and the issues you have thought about are relatively complete, but there are still some areas that can be improved."
Hearing Zhao Yi's words, Sun He also showed an interested expression, hoping to hear the boss's opinion. What he just said was settled after he and the company's employees thought about it for a long time. He thought he still had a high level of professionalism. Operability.
"Then please give me some advice, Mr. Zhao." Sun He said to Zhao Yi.
"I can't speak of any advice. Your plans are very good. If they can be carried out smoothly, Qianfeng Shipping Company will be able to gain a foothold in the world's shipping field.
However, there are some issues that can still be optimized. For example, in the construction of the talent team, you mainly adopt the mentoring model. This is not to say that this model is not good, but it may not be able to achieve your goals.
You must have heard the saying "Teach the apprentice, starve the master". Most of the talents you have hired so far are external. These people are already well versed in the rules of market competition. You must have paid a high salary to hire them. .
You should be able to imagine that in order to keep their high salaries, these people do not want their positions to be easily replaced by others. Although they may not necessarily disobey the company's decision, it is still unknown whether they sincerely teach.
Therefore, it is unrealistic for you to pin all your talent team building on this aspect. This is not in line with human nature. Even if you agree to the company's request, they will hold back.
Therefore, on this basis, we also need additional external resources to support and establish a talent cooperation and training mechanism with relevant professional enterprises. We will pay a certain amount of training fees and let them help us cultivate talents.
Ocean freighters generally have a capacity of 19 to 24 people. In addition to the captain, there are 8 senior crew members, 10 ordinary crew members, and 2 chefs.
Senior crew members include captain, chief engineer (old track), second engineer (second track), second engineer (third track), third engineer (fourth track), first mate, second mate, third mate, electrical engineer, and ordinary crew Including mechanics, sailors, etc.
For those that have a certain technical content, such as those that require rich theoretical knowledge of navigation, we can entrust them to domestic maritime schools for cooperative training, and then let the old employees in the company teach them, and it will be very easy to train them.
For machine maintenance and other types of work, you can cooperate with Haiyan Shipping Company to train them. They build the ships. It is perfect to cooperate with them to train talents in this field.
You may not know yet, but Chinese education companies are planning to promote lifelong education plans. Although they are still secretly conducting relevant research and development work and customizing course content and have not yet launched it, I am very optimistic about this project.
This plan includes not only basic science and technology and humanities and social science related knowledge teaching and training content from primary school to high school, but also involves professional knowledge training content up to the graduate level.
Your company also has educational resources in the fields related to shipping. You can contact the Chinese education company in advance and let them give priority to producing content in this area.
Then you can purchase relevant training courses for the recruited employees based on their knowledge level, so that they can use their free time to learn and accelerate their growth.
As for the effect, you should have children at home. You will know when you go home and ask your children how the courses provided by the intelligent teachers provided by Chinese education companies are. They are definitely much better than ordinary teachers.
Moreover, these intelligent teachers also have profound psychological knowledge and can provide students with appropriate psychological counseling when they are slacking off or in poor condition, so that students can grow up healthier and not be resistant to learning.
As for professional knowledge, you don’t have to worry. The smart teachers of Chinese education companies have developed content corresponding to higher education. However, the college entrance examination has not yet been conducted and students have not been recruited on a large scale. The number of teachers is still sufficient.
However, it is expected that students will enroll on a large scale in the second half of the year due to the expansion of the college entrance examination. The current number of college teachers should be insufficient. Intelligent teachers will be applied to teaching in various colleges and universities, and related transformation work is already underway.
Therefore, whether in terms of knowledge expertise or teaching expertise, the lifelong education plan that Chinese education companies are planning to launch is fully guaranteed and is a good re-education resource. "
When Sun He heard Zhao Yi's words, he was first surprised that he knew so much about things on an ocean-going ship. Most people didn't know the personnel configuration of an ocean-going ship.
Although Zhao Yi is the boss of Qian Shang Shipping Company, he has never been in charge of the specific affairs of Qian Shang Shipping Company for a day. In addition, he has many companies under his umbrella, so he should not notice these details in ordinary times.
This was Sun He's expected impression of Zhao Yi. The result was beyond his expectation. He could accurately tell the personnel configuration of an ocean-going ship, so he should have understood other details.
As for the multi-channel talent training plan that Zhao Yi said, he also agreed. They had not considered it thoroughly before. Their original thinking was still limited to the training model of traditional craftsmen. Obviously, the shortcomings were pointed out by Zhao Yi one by one. .
Except for chefs and sailors, who are relatively good on a ship, all other positions on a ship require rich navigation knowledge and related professional skills. If you are left alone by others, it will be okay if there are no problems. If there are problems, it will be a big deal.
Moreover, it is difficult to expose these flaws when the sea is calm. Once a problem occurs, it will be too late, causing great losses to the safety of the crew and the company.
So when he heard the multi-channel training plan proposed by Zhao Yi, he sincerely admired Zhao Yi. Although his boss basically didn't care about the specific matters below, the boss's level was still reflected in this matter.
I won’t go into details about the benefits of cooperating with maritime schools. After all, they specialize in educating maritime personnel, and a school that is not professional cannot be opened.
Then there is the cooperation and training with Haiyan Shipping Company. All their ships are currently manufactured by Haiyan Shipping Company, and this status will not change easily in the future.
Therefore, for the ship's mechanics, it is appropriate to cooperate with Haiyan Shipping Company. In particular, Haiyan Shipping Company's shipbuilding technology and the equipment used on it are very different from those of other shipbuilding companies.
In this case, leaving it to Haiyan Shipping Company to train talents in this area will not only be more professional, but also do not require long-term exploration and can train talents in a shorter period of time.
As Qianfeng Shipping Company is currently the only customer of Haiyan Shipping Company, Haiyan Shipping Company should actively cooperate with their requests, whether from the perspective of a brother company or from the perspective of interests.
What Sun He didn't expect was that his boss would recommend a lifelong education program that had not yet been launched by China Education Company. He was skeptical about this at first.
However, after Zhao Yi's reminder, I carefully thought about my child's recent learning situation and found that during this period, my little daughter no longer complained that studying at school was very boring, and began to patiently do her homework after returning home.
It's just that I have been busy during this period and have ignored this change. If your child's school uses intelligent teachers to teach, and your little daughter, who has always been tired of learning, can suddenly fall in love with learning, then there are indeed two brushes.
And he didn't know the relationship between China Education Company and Zhao Yi before, but since he joined Zhao Yi, the secret is no longer a secret, because cooperation between Zhao Yi's companies is very frequent.
In order to cooperate with brother companies as much as possible in future product development and scientific research, it is very important to understand which companies are owned by your boss and what business is carried out.
When he heard that China Education Company was also owned by his boss, his shocked expression was extremely exaggerated. Being able to create such a company was not only a strong capital position, but also a strong proof of his other strengths in the country.
Moreover, his boss not only founded the China Education Company, but also owned several welfare companies. As a senior intellectual, he knew with his head that these companies were losing money.
And it's not just ordinary money-losing goods, it burns money very quickly, and my boss not only took over these jobs, but also did a great job.
The business carried out by these companies is currently very good, especially for my mother's old cold leg. After being treated by a Chinese medical company, this old problem has never happened again, and the treatment effect is much better than before.
Sun He comes from a rural area, and his parents are not eligible to receive pensions. Not long ago, his father wrote to tell him not to send money to his family in the future. His parents have already received pension funds from the China Pension Company. The pension was paid.
Although the pension is much lower than that of people who pay pension insurance in the city, it is enough for my parents' daily expenses. Since I don't have to rent a house, I can save a little and still have a little leftover.
From this, it can be seen that the companies founded by my boss are not deceptive, but actually get things done.
Therefore, he no longer doubts the strength of Chinese education companies, especially when he thinks of his youngest daughter's change in attitude towards learning, which proves this point.
"Okay, we will make improvements according to your suggestions, Mr. Zhao." Sun He quickly agreed. (End of chapter)
