According to the president's wish, the convoy where Masao Ishihara was located did not go directly to the five-star hotel he stayed at, but went to Jizhimeijin Brewery.

After the car stopped, Oda Ryunosuke, who was sitting in the passenger seat, got off the car first and came back and opened the door for the president.

Masao Ishihara got off the car and, under the crowd, began to inspect his own winery in person.

Ichiro Nakagawa gave an active introduction: "After the winery is completed, the unaged gin wine was produced according to the principle of running first.

Part of the total production capacity is sold to the outside world, and it is also gradually opening up our Jizhimei's popularity in the gin market.

The other part is to follow the president's intention to aged high-end gin and aged a barrel. The barrels used are all from the barrels used by Karuizawa Whiskey Distilleries."

Masao Ishihara asked in a targeted manner: "How is the sales situation?"

Ichiro Nakagawa said truthfully: "Supply is in short supply. As Karuizawa whiskey has won many awards in international liquor competitions, we have benefited a lot.

Not to mention the gin that is aging, even the gin that has not been aged has been booked by the sellers early on.

Even if you just let the gin barrels in the wooden barrels used by Karuizawa whiskey, it can double its value."

Masao Ishihara is not surprised at all about such a thing. This is just like the hairy crabs in Yangcheng Lake. Yangcheng Lake is so big, but it supplies hairy crabs that far exceed their own production capacity every year.

Many hairy crabs that have grown up since childhood in Yangcheng Lake can be sold to the public as long as they are put into Yangcheng Lake and “washed” them. They can also be sold at high prices.

Otherwise, consumers' reactions will often be cold. Even if they sell at a lower price, they will not be easy to sell. The brand effect is so magical.

As Masao Ishihara walked forward slowly, he looked at the six directions and listened to all directions. He saw the busy workers in the winery saying, "How many shifts a day? How many hours a day?"

Ichiro Nakagawa has actually told me: "The winery has reached 100% of its production capacity, which is completely a 24-hour stoppage of work every day.

People working on the front line of production are arranged for two shifts every day, and the whole year is uninterrupted, with one shift for twelve hours.

People who are not on the front line of production work Monday to Friday, and are closed on Saturday and Sunday. The work time is about twelve hours a day."

Masao Ishihara smiled and said, "You won't let the staff on the front line of production have a rest day, right?"

Ichiro Nakagawa explained seriously: "No, no. The front-line staff of the production line all take turns to rest. They work five days a week and have two days off.

However, they are not on standard Saturdays and Sundays. Some people are off Mondays and Tuesdays, some are off Wednesdays and Thursdays, and some are off Fridays and Saturdays.

Working overtime also has overtime wages. In short, if you want to make more money, you have to take the initiative and voluntarily work more overtime, after all, it is more labor and more rewarding."

Masao Ishihara seriously reminded: "We make wine. Wine is for people to drink. This food safety is absolutely careless.

If someone is unwilling to work overtime, don’t force them to work overtime. It is okay to hire more dispatched employees or temporary workers. The current economic environment in Japan is not ideal. At present, it is also called the ultra-employment ice age.

Therefore, there is no need to worry about not being able to find labor. Even if you use foreign workers or trainees from East Asia, Southeast Asia, South Asia and other regions, it is OK.

However, in key positions, especially food safety supervision, we can only use formal employment personnel, and responsibilities must be implemented on everyone's head."

Ichiro Nakagawa replied with a serious face: "I understand. I have always been very close to food safety and have never been slackened."

Masao Ishihara emphasized: "No matter who makes obvious mistakes in food safety, even minor mistakes cannot be tolerated. If you should be fired, you will be fired."

After responding to a "understanding" again, Ichiro Nakagawa said, "Now, there are many people who want to work in our Jizhimei winery.

Recruiting ten people can attract hundreds of people. People who work here know that if they don’t work hard, there will be people outside to replace them.

As a formal worker, people who are already working in Ji Zhimei can not only get their salary on time and on time every month, but also have a lot of benefits.

Even if we are dispatched personnel or temporary workers, our hourly wages are among the forefront of all walks of life in Kyoto. The attractiveness of our work here is still very strong."

The principle that Masao Ishihara has always adhered to is that if you want the horse to be good, you have to feed the horse. If you want the horse to be good, you don’t feed the horse. Just whip it blindly is not a good way to sustain it in the long run.

I am completely patient and do not rush to maximize profits in a short period of time, but focus on long-term flow. What's more, the winemaking industry is not rushing.

Masao Ishihara casually asked: "Have you ever thought about being transferred to Karuizawa, my hometown? Or was he transferred to work in Tokyo?"

Ichiro Nakagawa shook his head and said, "I never thought that Kyoto is very good. It has been fourteen years since I left Karuizawa at the age of 18 and came to Kyoto University.

I have long regarded this place as my second hometown. Not only are I very familiar with and used to it, but I also like the lifestyle of Kyoto.

Although Kyoto is not as prosperous and lively as Tokyo, it also has its own unique side. At least, the pace of life in Kyoto is much slower than that in Tokyo.

If you are busy working only for money and making money for 365 days a year, what fun is there to say about life?

Even if the people of Kyoto are not as enthusiastic and straightforward as the people of Osaka, they are not as cold and hypocritical as the people of Tokyo. As the ancient capital of Japan, Kyoto is not as dull as the capital of Japan.

There are also many modern fashion elements here. Whether young people or middle-aged and elderly people, they are very particular about their wear. A considerable part of the income of Kyoto people will be spent on clothing.

This is exactly the same as our Karuizawa people. Not only are their taste no worse than that of the Tokyo people, but they are also more than that of the Tokyo people."

Seeing that Masao Ishihara talks for the Kyoto people like this, it means that the other party has been integrated into all aspects of life here.

Since Ichiro Nakagawa himself is willing to stay in Kyoto to work, he cannot force himself, and there is no need to find trouble if he has nothing to do.
