Chapter 149 Big Troop Training

"What did you think about it?" Zhou Heng asked. He knew that since Tang Zifeng wanted to raise this question, he must have his own set of ideas.

Sure enough, Tang Zifeng replied without hesitation: "Three words, great training."

"Big training?" Zhou Heng thought for a moment and said, "I understand what you mean. Is it necessary to carry out a comprehensive on-the-job training campaign to comprehensively improve the technical level of workers? Many companies have carried out such campaigns in the past. Linyi The machine should have been done before. The effect cannot be said to be non-existent, but it may be a bit difficult to achieve the level you want."

"Of course I know." Tang Zifeng said, "Organize technical training, hold night classes, and hold technical competitions. The winners will each be given an enamel jar or something, and then they can write materials and report to their superiors. In the second round, like this I almost vomited after reading the reporting materials.”

Zhou Heng said speechlessly: "Aren't they just these methods? It can't be said that they are just a formality. Some companies have done a good job. It all depends on people."

Tang Zifeng said: "Of course these methods are effective, but if employees cannot be motivated to learn technology, the effect will not be very good just by engaging in sports. Employees who are interested in technology, are you doing this? They will take the initiative to learn sports. For those who are not interested in technology, is it useful to just reward them with an enamel jar?"

"What do you think?"

“If one enamel jar is not enough, then two!”

"speak English!"

"I mean, throw money at it until everyone is jealous!"

"You mean to give heavy rewards to the winners of the technical competition to stimulate everyone's enthusiasm for learning technology?" Zhou Heng asked tentatively. Tang Zifeng's thoughts were so elegant that he really couldn't keep up.

Tang Zifeng said: "It's not about giving heavy rewards, but directly widening the gap. I thought of a way. Let's evaluate the 20 most skilled workers in the factory and directly award them with titles. Well, they'll be called 'big machine craftsmen'..." …”

"What kind of title is this? It's too unpleasant!" Zhou Heng couldn't help but complain.

"That's not the point." Tang Zifeng said. There is no way, the industrial man really doesn't know how to name. He originally had some talent like this, but it quickly deteriorated after he came to the first machine. He said: "The important thing is not what the title is called, but that all those who receive this title can receive a special allowance of 1,000 yuan per month."

"per month?"

"per month!"

"Isn't this too radical?" Zhou Heng clicked his tongue. Linyiji's current per capita salary is only 150 yuan, and the factory affairs meeting has discussed plans to increase the average salary to about 250 yuan after the financial situation improves. For a senior technician, the salary is about 500 yuan, which is pretty good. Tang Zifeng came up and said that he would be given a special allowance of 1,000 yuan per month. Would this cause an outbreak of pinkeye on the machine?

Tang Zifeng said: "Han Weichang received a business commission of 50,000 yuan, and the salesmen in the sales department were jealous and clamored to open up new business. Huang Liting contracted the East District store and received a dividend of 50,000 yuan for half a year, so Wang Liting Ying stopped making trouble and opened a moving company with Zhou Yijin as if he was on a drug. I heard that his waist was so tired that his waist became thicker. This shows that the power of role models is infinite. If you don't make everyone jealous, everyone won't If you are motivated, the reward of three or two enamel jars is a joke."

"Twenty people, a monthly allowance of 1,000 yuan, which is 240,000 yuan a year, is not a high amount." Zhou Heng did the calculations and felt a little more at ease. He had a premonition that he might be persuaded by Tang Zifeng, so he had to settle the score first.

"This is the first step. We will first select this batch of 'big machine craftsmen', and then claim that we will select another batch of 'small machine craftsmen' in the future, with slightly lower subsidies and more places." Tang Zifeng added .

The corners of Zhou Heng's mouth twitched several times, but he finally stopped picking on the thorn in his name. This is the so-called warm water frog. The first time he heard Tang Zifeng talk about "big machine" and "small machine", Zhou Heng found it unbearable, but after hearing it more, it seemed to be okay.

"Do you think that after setting these examples, everyone will be motivated to learn technology?" Zhou Heng asked.

Tang Zifeng shook his head and said: "Of course this is not enough. What I just mentioned is the reward, which is the carrot hanging in front of everyone's nose. In addition to the carrot, we must also cooperate with the stick policy so that all those who are unwilling to learn technology will not be able to survive. "

"Tell me about your big stick policy." Zhou Heng said calmly.

"The big stick policy is also very simple, that is, each worker will be re-evaluated and graded, and promotion goals will be proposed. Within a period of time, they will either be promoted or leave." Tang Zifeng said with itching teeth.

The concept of "promote or leave" only appeared in the new century. It was invented by intellectuals as a dirty trick to deal with other intellectuals. It has to be said that scholars are indeed cruel to scholars. For a period of time, this word was almost a nightmare for the "green peppers" (which means young teachers) in various colleges and universities.

The so-called "promote or leave" is to set a goal for you. For example, you must be promoted to associate professor within a few years, and you must be promoted to professor within a few years. If you fail to achieve the goal, you will leave.

If you can be promoted if your academic level reaches a certain level, then this system cannot be considered too harsh. After all, the management of the academic team still needs some assessment standards. The key to the problem is that the promotion quota for each unit is limited. What you have to do is not only fight against the sky and the earth, but also against people.

For example, if you burn the power of your soul and write 50 papers in a year, which is far beyond the requirements for professor, then will you definitely be promoted to professor? No, you look up and find that Xiao Zhang and Xiao Li, who joined the company in the same year, have already written 80 papers, so you just spit out a mouthful of old blood.

All scientific research units that implement the promotion-or-leave policy only give 2 promotion places out of 10 people. To be promoted, you not only have to make a lot of achievements, but you also have to be among the top 2 among these 10 people. And several of those who are eligible to be on the shortlist are fuel-efficient lamps.

To avoid the "promote or leave" situation, you must stand out among a group of super academics. But other top academics are not easy to deal with. If you work hard, others will work harder. In the end, you will enter a state called "Prisoner's Paradox", where everyone works to the limit and the competition is to see who dies last.

In the previous life, some of Tang Zifeng's friends were in a state of "promote or leave". Every time Tang Zifeng saw them, he could understand what it meant to live without love. There are really not just one or two young talents across the country who have been driven crazy and to death by this policy.

It was precisely because he knew the viciousness of this move that Tang Zifeng called it a big stick and advocated introducing this policy into Linyiji in 1995. He believed that if this big stick was wielded, those salty fish employees of Linyiji would go crazy. There are already 1,500 examples of diverted employees there. Who can remain indifferent to the rest of the people?

"Let's draw a line. Skilled workers who are not promoted to intermediate level before the age of 35 will be eliminated directly, or transferred to general workers, or go to labor service companies to do cleaning; those who are not promoted to senior level before the age of 45 will be directly retired and seek their own livelihood. Go for a career." Tang Zifeng said.

"This seems too extreme." Zhou Heng said, "Currently, less than 30% of people under the age of 35 in our factory have reached the standard of intermediate workers. Some people are almost 35 years old. According to your method, these people They all have to be sent to the labor service company."

Tang Zifeng said: "We can ignore the past. From now on, we will give you a three-year buffer period. For example, if you are 35 years old and still a junior worker, then we can wait until you are 38 years old before taking the assessment. If you are still If you are a junior worker, I'm sorry, you can only be eliminated. But if you are 32 years old now and fail to advance to the intermediate level when you are 35, you will also be eliminated.

"The same is true for senior workers. We can ignore those over 45 years old. But if you are under 45 now, then if you cannot be promoted to senior workers within three years, or before the age of 45, I'm sorry, please retire."

"Is this requirement too high?" Zhou Heng said, "The Ministry of Machinery has made statistics two years ago. Among the skilled workers in the machinery industry across the country, the proportion of high, medium and low-level technicians is about 5:35:60. Our factory The situation is a little worse than this. According to your request, in a few years, we will at least reach 10:50:40, which is not an ordinary difficulty."

"Of course it is very difficult, otherwise how could we meet the requirements of the large-scale military training I mentioned." Tang Zifeng said.

Zhou Heng said: "Everything should be done step by step, right? If you do this, you will probably eliminate half of the workers. You have to know that these workers are the ones we have left after a round of separation. Although the overall technical level It’s still not satisfactory, but it can be useful at least. If we eliminate another half, will our factory’s production be maintained?”

Tang Zifeng said: "What's so difficult about this? If we really eliminate half of them, we can just recruit new workers at the worst."

"Aren't the technical levels of new workers lower?" Zhou Heng asked.

"Who said that? Can't I recruit skilled technicians?" Tang Zifeng asked.

Zhou Heng said: "Where are you going to recruit skilled technicians?"

"Factory 432."

Tang Zifeng's answer left Zhou Heng speechless. This guy went to No. 17. He must have suffered so much psychological trauma. He clearly showed some signs of hatred towards society. He was actually able to come up with a trick to pry into the corner of Factory 432, and it was only thanks to Gu Yuansheng that he praised him in front of him for understanding the general situation and taking the overall situation into consideration.

Tang Zifeng said seriously: "Director Zhou, I am not kidding. Of course, recruiting skilled workers from Factory 432 is just an example. In the past few years, and even in the next few years, China will have tens of thousands of state-owned enterprises. It is definitely not sensational to say that 30 million people will be laid off due to bankruptcy or restructuring. Among these people, there are many skilled workers. Why can't we recruit these workers for our use?

"I have thought about it. After this period, I will go out and explore thirty or fifty new business directions. It will not be a problem for Linyi Machine's annual output value to exceed 500 million within three years. By then we will need a large number of Senior technical workers, if these current people don't work hard, they will be eliminated directly, and we cannot let them drag them to death."
