Homo sapiens

Chapter 211 Poaching

July 8, 21.

China.

Myeongju Port, Samsung Heavy Industries Myeongju Shipyard.

Since it has not received orders from the headquarters in recent years, the business and efficiency of this shipyard are very low, and Samsung Heavy Industries is preparing to abolish this shipyard.

The news came as a bolt from the blue to workers at the shipyard.

Soon many employees started to make a fuss.

However, there are also many employees who sign an outsourcing contract (similar to a labor dispatch contract), so they have no choice but to make a fuss. Such employees account for more than half.

Regarding this matter, the special branch of Homo Sapiens Company in Magic City quickly received this information.

Carmen Lopez, who is in charge of the overall work of Homo sapiens' Greater China branch, is currently in Shanghai handling a batch of crane equipment purchase contracts.

When he heard about this, he quickly ordered the personnel department to send people to Mingzhou Port to recruit skilled shipbuilding workers, especially those outsourcing employees who did the hardest and most tiring work, but their income was much worse than that of regular workers. These people were the most Easy to dig.

In fact, the human resources department of Homo sapiens has hired quite a few skilled workers in Greater China in the past year or two.

Although East Asia accounts for more than 90% of the world's shipbuilding scale, wages and benefits are not that high.

Especially in recent years, many shipyards have continued to increase shipbuilding orders, but their performance has been losing money every year.

The average median income of major shipyards is about 5,000 to 7,000 Chinese yuan per month.

For example, at Samsung Heavy Industries' Myeongju Shipyard, due to poor profits, the average median employee income is just over 4,000 per month.

The task force of the Human Resources Department of Homo sapiens Company, which quickly arrived at Mingzhou Port, led by team leader Lu Yinsheng, quickly and secretly contacted the technical workers of the shipyard.

The few electricians and welders who were invited out were also a little flattered. It is really hard to find jobs now. Even if they have the skills at hand, they are still facing huge competitive pressure.

These welders can earn about 300 yuan a day by taking private jobs outside, but this kind of private work does not happen every day, and private work often means that there is no strict safety protection, let alone five insurances and one housing fund.

Nowadays, the shipbuilding industry as a whole is in a slump, and the vicious competition among the three major shipbuilding countries in East Asia has caused serious industry involution.

Regardless of the fact that many shipyards build millions of tonnage of ships a year, you would think that they can earn 5% profit on each ship.

In fact, only the high-end category in the shipbuilding industry, LNG ships, barely has a 5% profit.

From this point, we can know how poor the operating conditions of these shipyards are. Many of their shipbuilding orders are actually making money at a loss.

Taking China's shipbuilding industry as an example, the orders completed this year have approximately US$180 billion in revenue, but the overall profit is only US$1.9 billion, with a profit margin of only about 1.1%.

This year, steel prices have risen from 3,000 to 4,000 Chinese yuan per ton at the beginning of the year to 5,000 to 6,000 Chinese yuan per ton.

When the contract is signed, the price has already been fixed. Party A will not compensate the shipyard because of the increase in ship steel costs. This money can only be borne by the shipyard itself.

Nowadays, it is increasingly difficult for shipyards to make profits. The industry as a whole is in a state of long-term losses. Companies cannot make ends meet. Can we expect companies to maintain good treatment? Thank God there are no layoffs.

What about the net profit of New Luzon Shipbuilding Company?

The answer is very good, the overall profit margin has reached about 15%.

Of course, this profit rate is only known internally by Homo Sapiens. In the quarterly revenue report of New Luzon Shipbuilding Company, the profit rate announced was only 1.3%, which is the same as that of major shipyards in East Asia.

However, the profits of New Luzon Shipbuilding Company were actually transferred to Sea Snail Company, Luzon Electric Company, and to build warships for the Luzon Navy at cost price, so the profitability seems to be very poor.

New Luzon Shipbuilding Company is currently secretly testing a brand new shipbuilding technology. If the test is successful, the shipbuilding cost will be reduced by 40% to 50%.

Lu Yinsheng smiled and poured tea for a dozen technical masters.

"You're welcome, masters. Let's chat while we eat."

As a leader among welders, Wei Lei took a sip of oolong tea and asked: "Mr. Lu, we have seen your company's treatment. I also know about your company's shipyard. There are no other benefits." He said, this is my family’s immigration, can we discuss it?”

The technical masters present have all worked hard in the shipbuilding industry for a long time, with at least three years of service experience.

In fact, they had heard about the New Luzon Shipbuilding Company that had just emerged in recent years. Especially after Lu Yinsheng sent them a recruitment advertisement, Wei Lei and others carefully inquired about the relevant information of the New Luzon Shipbuilding Company.

According to the recruitment advertisement given by Lu Yinsheng, they joined the company as technicians and their monthly basic salary was about 5,000 Chinese yuan.

If you are willing to accept the immigration of your whole family, you can also get an internal employment contract, and the starting salary will be increased to about 8,000 Chinese yuan per month.

In addition, various other benefits are very good.

In addition, when the whole family immigrate, the company will also arrange work, education, and retirement for the family members, which further enhances the appeal for those with families.

In addition, there are many people in China who have worked in Luzon before, or whose families immigrated there, and they have posted many posts and videos online.

This made Wei Lei and others not doubt the treatment of Homo sapiens company.

"Masters, internal employees must immigrate their entire families. This is our company's bottom line. After all, internal employees will be responsible for confidential positions. We cannot hand over such important positions to foreign employees." Lu Yinsheng shook his head with a smile.

He was also the one who made ugly remarks. He didn't have the courage to immigrate his whole family, so he just accepted the external employment contract honestly. Don't even think about getting a lot of benefits without paying for it.

Lu Yinsheng, who is responsible for recruitment in Greater China, has met all kinds of people and naturally understands what some people think.

He also understands the Chinese concept that it is difficult to leave one's homeland and return to one's roots after falling leaves, which makes many people not easily choose to immigrate as a family. If you immigrate alone, there is a high probability that many people will accept it.

The idea of ​​these people is very realistic, that is, if one day they can no longer survive abroad, they can return to their hometown to join their parents or relatives.

If the whole family emigrates, once it takes a long time, it means that the relationship network and industry in the hometown will be abandoned, and you will lose a way out.

Moreover, Homo sapiens is very strict in what it does. Once an employee's family emigrates, it will not only publish the immigration list on the official website, but also require the employees to sever ties with their home country - that is, to cancel their nationality.

For those who want to jump left and right, this is obviously unacceptable.

Among Wei Lei and others, there are people with such plans.

But there is no such good thing in the world. To gain something, you always have to give up something.

After a meal, both parties understand each other's bottom line, and then it depends on personal choice.

Lu Yinsheng had no intention of stalking him. He only gave him one chance and left it to these people to choose whether they wanted to work in Luzon or not.

As for the skilled workers at Samsung's Myeongju Shipyard, Homo sapiens actually doesn't like many of them. There is basically no need to consider the general workers and management positions. There are a lot of such people in Luzon.

Only those skilled workers are the focus of poaching this time.

In less than three days, more than a dozen skilled workers decided to go to Luzon to work.

There are even a few skilled workers who came to apply for jobs from private shipyards in surrounding cities. Obviously, the life of private shipyards is even more difficult. In order to survive, skilled workers do not mind working abroad.
