For 200 million plus the previous 8.8 million advance payment, Xia Lei sold the ownership of the smart machine tool he brought back from Germany. From then on, he would no longer build such smart machine tools, nor would he transfer the drawings and related information to anyone. technology. However, he not only stole Joseph's secrets in Germany, but during the time he worked in Germany, he "saw" a lot of things and learned a lot of things, which money cannot buy. Arrived.
Although China Industrial Group bought out the ownership of Joseph's intelligent machine tools, it could not buy the knowledge and technology in Xia Lei's head. In a year and a half, he will be able to produce the most advanced machine tools suitable for Thunder Horse Manufacturing Company. Therefore, when Mu Jianfeng offered to buy it, he agreed to sell it without even thinking about it.
The transaction between the two parties was completed that day. China Industrial Group paid Xia Lei 200 million in cash without paying taxes. In addition, China Industrial Group will provide 20 different types of mechanical processing equipment to Thunder Horse Manufacturing Company, including lathes, drilling machines, milling machines, etc., all of which will be provided in accordance with the most advanced domestic standards. In addition, China Industrial Group will build a larger comprehensive workshop for Thunder Horse Manufacturing Company. The total cost was about five million. It may not seem like much money, but the equipment sent by China Industrial Group will be installed and debugged by people from China Industrial Group, which is exactly what Thunder Horse Manufacturing Company, which is short of manpower, is happy to see.
That afternoon, China Industrial Group transported the intelligent machine tool away in a large truck. When moving out of the studio, Xia Lei's exclusive studio was also dismantled because he couldn't go out. When it was transported away, the machine was covered with a thick tarpaulin, making it look very mysterious.
Mu Jianfeng and his party escorted the heavy truck away, even declining Xia Lei's invitation to dinner.
After sending off Mu Jianfeng and his party, Xia Lei also announced something. All employees of Thunder Horse Manufacturing Company will receive a bonus of 10,000 yuan, and workshop directors such as Zhou Xiaohong, Yang Bencai, and Liu Xuebing will receive a bonus of 30,000 yuan. Employees in the R&D department received 10,000 yuan, while Han Bo and Yin Hao received 30,000 yuan. Guan Lingshan from the finance department also received 30,000 yuan, and employees from the sales department received 10,000 yuan. In addition, employees from the sales department also received the same bonus.
As soon as this bonus was issued, more than one million yuan was paid out. During this period, the profit of Thunder Horse Manufacturing Company was only about two million yuan, which meant that most of the profits were returned to the employees. Coupled with the five social insurances and one housing fund that need to be paid to employees, Thunder Horse Manufacturing Company has little profit.
As soon as Xia Lei announced to the employees, Liang Siyao pulled him aside, leaned into his ear, and whispered: "Why do you give such high bonuses to employees? It's not the end of the year now. You have paid out all the money you earned over time. It will be the end of the year soon, and the year-end bonus will definitely be paid out. It can’t be less than it is now, right? The company hasn’t even made that much money!”
Liang Siyao already has the attributes of a housekeeper, and this attribute is in the growth stage.
Xia Lei smiled, "The company didn't make much money, but I did. With so much money, what's the use of sharing it with the employees?"
Liang Siyao rolled her eyes at him, "You can't spend it like this."
Xia Lei said in a low voice: "I actually have my own ideas. The company's scale will soon expand, the manufacturing level and productivity will improve, and we need more talents. I give them such bonuses here, and our treatment is so good , talents will come to us. Aren’t you always telling me that talents in the 21st century are the most important? As long as we accumulate more outstanding talents, our company will not worry about growing."
"But no one knows except us. Are you going to make an advertisement on the TV station to tell others how much bonus you received today?" Liang Siyao still couldn't let go. It was more than one million. Moreover, the end of the year is coming soon, and the year-end bonus will cost a lot of money! She feels distressed!
"I have a better way than advertising." Xia Lei said.
"What can I do?" Liang Siyao looked at Xia Lei with curious eyes.
"Just watch." Xia Lei walked back to the workers gathered in the open space and said loudly: "The company will expand its scale. You are all fresh graduates from universities and technical schools. Go back and contact your Classmates, as long as they are willing to come, I will open the door to accept them."
“Mr.
Xia Lei said: "If they come to our company to pick them up, they will buy according to the same standards as you. Now that social security accounts are unified across the country, the procedure is very simple."
"Hey, I'll contact them when I get back. Their skills are good, but they can't make much money in other companies, much less than me." The employee who graduated from a technical school looked very proud.
Another technician who graduated from the Polytechnic University said: "Mr. Xia, a few of my classmates have not found jobs yet. Their requirements are quite high. I wonder if I can recruit them?"
Xia Lei said: "Tell them, young people should not settle down for a high level or a low level. If they have real talents, I will not treat them badly, but when they first come here, they can only be treated the same as everyone else."
"Yeah! They will definitely agree." The employee who graduated from the Polytechnic said with a smile: "Who wouldn't want to work with a boss as good as Mr. Xia? If I tell them, they will definitely come!"
Xia Lei chatted and laughed with the employees, and the recruitment problem was solved.
Liang Siyao had just been blaming Xia Lei for spending money without restrictions, but now she smiled and secretly admired Xia Lei's strategy. These young employees all have classmates, and they are all talented people with knowledge and skills. They go to contact their former classmates. If those classmates know how good their treatment is at Thunder Horse Manufacturing Company, will those classmates still come
"Well, let's do that." Xia Lei concluded, "Go and contact your classmates. I'm here to express my opinion. As long as you recommend someone and sign a contract with our company, if you recommend one, the recommender will get a thousand yuan. bonus."
With a bang, employees from technical schools and polytechnics all anxiously took out their mobile phones and called their former classmates, fearing that they would be contacted by others too late.
Liang Siyao secretly punched Xia Lei, "You, you, I really underestimate you. Do you have so many good ideas in your head?"
Xia Lei smiled and said, "Let's go. I have never made so much money in my life. How about we find a better place and have a good meal to celebrate?"
"Okay." Liang Siyao agreed without even thinking.
Xia Lei added, "Well, let's call the master."
Liang Siyao's little mouth suddenly turned up. She didn't say anything, but she felt a little unhappy in her heart. She secretly said: "Why are you taking my dad to this piece of wood? Doesn't he understand what a world of two is?" "
At this moment, a man's voice suddenly came from the direction of the factory entrance, "Xia Lei."
Xia Lei turned around and saw Hu Hou. He came alone and his car was parked next to the factory gate.
Xia Lei greeted him and said with a smile: "Mayor Hu, welcome, come and sit in my office."
"I won't go to your office. I have something to do with you." Hu Hou said.
Xia Lei said, "What does Mayor Hu want from me?"
Mayor Hu said: "Are you okay at the moment?"
Xia Lei said: "I just finished a meeting with the employees, everything is fine now."
Hu Hou showed a smile and said, "It seems I'm here at a good time. Well, come with me. We'll talk on the way."
"Mayor Hu, what is going on?" Xia Lei asked tentatively.
"Of course it's a good thing, but is it still a bad thing? Let's go, let's go." Hu Hou pulled Xia Lei and left.
Xia Lei looked back at Liang Siyao with a look of helplessness on his face.
"Go ahead, go ahead." Liang Siyao looked understanding.
Xia Lei got into the Buick business car driven by Hu Hou, and Hu Hou drove towards the city hall.
He said he told Xia Lei on the way, but after the car had driven two kilometers, Hu Hou kept his mouth shut and said nothing. In the end, Xia Lei couldn't hold his nerve anymore and said tentatively: "Mayor Hu, didn't you tell me on the way? Please tell me what it is, you are almost driving me to death."
Hu Hou then said: "It's like this. The current economic environment is not good, and the real economy is in recession, especially the manufacturing industry. The situation is worrying. The Haizhu City Government is planning to hold a party to 'revitalize the real economy'. Come and join the party." They are all CEOs of various companies in our Haizhu City, and you are one of the important guests we requested."
Xia Lei looked at Hu Hou's face and suddenly smiled: "Mayor Hu, your secretary probably forgot to put my name on the invitation list? You found out and came to pick me up."
For such a party, the invitees were the CEOs of various companies. The invitation letters were probably sent out yesterday or even earlier, but Hu Hou rushed to pick him up just before the party started. What is this situation other than being forgotten
Hu Hou smiled bitterly and shook his head, "You, you, you can see such a thing at a glance, you are really not simple. You are right, I didn't see your name when I checked the conference table cards for the last time. I checked the list and found out that you were omitted. I obviously told my secretary, but he still forgot about you. For this, I gave him a severe reprimand."
Xia Lei said with a smile: "It's okay, Mayor Hu, you came to pick me up in person, I think it's very honorable, haha."
"I feel relieved if you think so." Hu Hou drove the car and was silent for a moment before saying, "There is one more thing I want to ask your opinion on."
"Mayor Hu, just say it." Xia Lei has always had a good impression of Hu Hou, and he doesn't feel restrained when he is with a mayor like Hu Hou.
"Do you want your company to go public?" Hu Hou said suddenly.
"Going public?" Xia Lei was stunned for a moment, "I haven't thought about it. The company is so small and has just started. How can it be qualified to go public?"
Hu Hou said: "Scale is definitely not a problem. Your company's profitability is not bad. Listing on the GEM is not a big problem. If you want to get on the GEM, I can help you operate it."
Xia Lei thought for a moment and said, "This is no small matter. Let me think about it and then give you an answer."
"Of course you have to think about it. I won't rush you. If you think about it, just write me a reply." Hu Hou said.
Xia Lei nodded, but he was thinking secretly, "It's inexplicable. Why did he ask me to go public? The only purpose of a company going public is to raise funds and use investors' money to develop the company. But I am not short of money, so I have nothing to do." What are there so many shareholders for? If a business rival attacks my stock, instead of reaping the benefits, I will get into trouble and end up in a terrible market."
It was said that it took some time to think about it, but Xia Lei almost thought about it within two minutes after closing his mouth - if there is no shortage of money, why should I go public
In China, there are many examples of profitable companies not going public. The most famous ones are Huawei, Lao Ganma, etc. Thunder Horse Manufacturing Co., Ltd. cannot compare with such large companies now, but listing is really a success. It's not necessary.
