Chen Tao and two college students were also traveling to Shenghai with Song Weiyang.

Xifeng opened a branch in Pudong, specializing in the production of iced tea beverages. The factory director is Wei Dexiong, deputy manager of the production management department of Xifeng Company. The former production section chief of the factory was promoted to deputy factory director, so the problem arose.

Wei Dexiong only brought a few backbone members over, and the branch factory roughly retained the original framework, which was a mess in management.

Wei Dexiong himself graduated from junior high school, with average management skills, but strong execution skills. He had adapted to the enterprise management system formulated by Song Weiyang at the headquarters and went to Shenghai Branch to follow the rules. Of course, this is true. The mistake is that he did not have a good relationship with the locals.

All kinds of lip service and various secret resistance, the factory director's order can only be passed to the middle-level cadres. Then the next step is to get mixed up. Even if a worker violates the regulations, the team leader will laugh and scold him, and just scold him will be done.

Wei Dexiong personally inspected the factory workshop and fired more than ten employees within a week, which further aroused the hostility of the locals. Just when my uncle called the "Focus Interview" hotline, something happened in the factory. There were more than 80 workers who were fired and deducted wages. They collectively pulled banners and blocked the door and sat quietly. Some even rushed into the distribution room, causing the machines in the entire factory to stop running for two hours.

Wei Dexiong's approach was not too much. He fired more than 10 people and deducted more than 60 people.

but

First, he has corrected it too much. Some behaviors that only require verbal admonitions, and in order to establish his prestige, he directly chooses to deduct wages, which makes the workers very dissatisfied.

Second, he is a foreigner. Shenghai people looked down on foreigners. As soon as he took office, he was thunderous and lacked in softness, which led to the unwillingness of the original factory cadres.

Third, the laid-off state-owned enterprise workers have not changed their minds yet, and many of them regard themselves as masters and really cannot stand the grievance. Some people will cause trouble as soon as they fan the flames.

This incident caused General Manager Yang Xin to lose face. Because Wei Dexiong's strong execution ability was extremely valued by Yang Xin, he was specially assigned to serve as the director of Shenghai branch. Now, something happened in the first month, and the branch management was a mess. Where did Yang Xin's face be put?

Inside the sleeper room.

Song Weiyang said to Chen Tao: "To control a factory, you must first control the cadres. Now you take over as the director of the branch factory, and you only bring two college students and a few backbone Wei Dexiong left there. What does this mean? It is equivalent to taking over a unit, and all the grassroots officers are strangers, and most of the senior officers are strangers. When you are in real war, you will continue with an order and find that the officers and soldiers are lazy. If you ask them to charge, they will give you a walk on the battlefield."

"We have a punishment system and a reward system. Why can't we increase the enthusiasm of cadres and workers?" Chen Tao said in confusion.

Song Weiyang asked: "Have you heard of the idiom 'Yimu Jianxin'?"

Before Chen Tao could speak, a college student next to him began to answer: "I know that when Shang Yang was reforming the Qin State, he was afraid that the people would not believe the rules he issued. So Shang Yang erected a three-meter-high wooden pole and said that anyone who could move the wooden pole from the south gate to the north gate would be rewarded 50 gold. The people didn't believe that such a good thing was happening, but someone moved and indeed received a reward of 50 gold. From then on, Shang Yang's decree was recognized by the Qin State."

"The answer is correct, but there is no reward." Song Weiyang smiled.

The two college students also laughed and the atmosphere was relatively relaxed.

This time, Chen Tao brought two college students from Shenghai, one named Qu Chi and the other named Qin Fengming, both of whom took the initiative to recommend themselves to join the company not long ago.

Like Song Weiyang, Qu Chi is a self-funded student and does not include distribution. Perhaps he is used to being discriminated against in school, so he is very strong and loves to study. Unfortunately, he likes to steal the limelight too much and does not miss any opportunity to show himself. He actually answered questions while Song Weiyang was speaking.

Hopefully, it will gradually become mature.

Song Weiyang said: "The most failure of Wei Dexiong is that he forgot to 'move wood and Jianxin'. He only thought about using the punishment system to ask cadres and workers for what they did, but forgot that the first month's bonus was not paid. The cadres and workers in the factory had no sense of trust in him. Both kindness and power were used, and rewards and punishments were clearly distinguished. Managers should not only pay attention to 'power' and 'punishment'. If Wei Dexiong cannot correct his way of doing things, he will be like that for the rest of his life. I hope he can learn from this lesson."

"I understand." Chen Tao nodded.

"Also," said Song Weiyang, "Wei Dexiong's 'power' and 'punishment' were also used in the wrong place. He is a foreign leader, and if he wants to establish his authority, he should find the right key point. What's the point of eliminating a bunch of ordinary workers? If you want to be expelled, you will directly expel the upper-level cadres, which will shock the tiger. When the workers see that the cadres are gone, who dares not act like a blind eye?"

Chen Tao said: "Maybe Director Wei is afraid that the impact of expelling upper-level cadres is too bad, which makes other cadres panic."

"Extremely stupid," Song Weiyang commented, "Who dares to say what is the expulsion of a cadre, promote a confidant, and reward other cadres? People's hearts gathered immediately! Such a simple thing is becoming more and more complicated by him."

College student Qin Fengming kept listening carefully and suddenly asked: "Chairman, why is Director Wei very popular at the headquarters and has strong abilities, but he is a little poor when he goes to the branch?"

Song Weiyang explained: "At the headquarters, everyone knows everyone, and knows that Wei Dexiong is a person with clear rewards and punishments. But Shenghai Branch is different. He is a new arrival, and who knows what he is in his situation. The more selfless he is, the more uneasy he is, the more resentful he is, and even inexplicably arouses others' rebellious hostility. When a person reaches a new environment, the first thing he needs to do is to be familiar with others and make others familiar with him. Do not be too hasty."

Qin Fengming nodded and said, "It's like a messy ball. You have to observe and find the thread head first to clarify the trouble. You can do whatever you want when you start, which makes the ball more and more messy."

"It can be understood so." Song Weiyang said.

Chen Tao smiled and said, "I know what to do."

Song Weiyang said: "Then tell me."

Chen Tao said: "First, reward cadres and employees with outstanding work; second, expel all workers involved in the trouble; third, expel the management staff of the distribution room; fourth, consult the workers who protect the distribution room and give a donation reward. The rest need to be done slowly. All the unobedient cadres in the factory must be removed and replaced with the people we brought from the headquarters."

Song Weiyang said: "We need to grasp a good degree. Whether it is speaking, doing things, or even being a person, 'degree' is very important. It can make people admire, awe, close, and not disgusting. Everything can be done naturally without being abrupt."

"How to master the 'degree'?" Qu Chi asked suddenly.

"Observe more, think more, and summarize more," said Song Weiyang. "You will understand slowly. I can't explain clearly, only understand, not express it. In different situations, the performance of 'degree' is different. We must combine all aspects of factors. For example, speaking, I am the chairman now. As long as I am not arrogant and do not invade your interests, you will be willing to listen to me. If you want to improve your enthusiasm, it is very simple, and you can make a promise. But if you change to other relationships, you must measure your own situation, measure the other party's situation, capture the other party's psychological needs and bottom line, oppress when it should be oppressed, threaten when it should be threatened, please please when it should be pleased, and always make the other party bearable and not disgusted."

Song Weiyang is teaching by example and practice to train cadres, and he is idle when he is riding the train anyway.

Qin Fengming smiled and said, "This is the idea of ​​famous artists and wise men."

Song Weiyang said happily: "Do you still understand the various schools of thought?"

"I graduated from the Department of Philosophy." Qin Fengming said.

"Then our major is not far behind." Song Weiyang said.

Song Weiyang reported to the Department of Sociology. In the early 1980s, sociology was still a sub-profession of the Department of Philosophy of Fudan. It finally became independent in 1988 and was classified as a member of the Law School this year.
