When will I have a long tassel?

"Is there still this thing? When he went out to start a business, did he use the technology developed here?" Tang Zifeng asked.

Gu Jiacheng shook his head and said, "That's not true. We have never made self-lubricating guide rails ourselves, and have always purchased them from outside. The technical department planned to set up a project to do it, and asked him to do preliminary research for a period of time. This young man turned out to be I did some research in this area with my teacher in college and accumulated a bit of experience. Speaking of which, his technology has little to do with us."

"If this is the case, then there is no need for us to interfere." Tang Zifeng said.

Gu Jiacheng said: "Yes, it is precisely because of this that we cannot interfere with his company opening. For this matter, I went to the technical office to understand the situation and make sure that he did not take away anything useful from the company. "

Tang Zifeng said: "This incident reminded me that each company under the group must establish rules to clarify which technologies belong to the company and which technologies belong to individual employees. If employees want to resign, we We can’t stop it, but if we use our technology to sell it for money, we have to talk about it.”

"What are we talking about? Just call the police and arrest them." Gu Jiacheng said with a smile, "Those employees who have mastered the company's core technology, we have signed confidentiality agreements with them, as well as non-compete agreements. If these people eat Climbing inside and outside, using the company's technology to do it on your own, or working in partnership with others, is a violation of the agreement, and we will sue you for it."

Tang Zifeng said: "It's not necessary to arrest people. If they go out to start their own business instead of joining our competitors, we should still support them."

"Support?" Gu Jiacheng was stunned.

"As long as they are willing to pay technology usage fees." Tang Zifeng added with a smile. Seeing that Gu Jiacheng was still a little unable to react, he said more bluntly: "These people, if they feel that the money they make in the company is too much, Young Master, if you want to go out and start a business on your own, we can allow it. There is no need to hold people captive and force them to do so.

"However, they have signed confidentiality agreements and non-competition agreements. These agreements are not for nothing. If they want to start a business, they must leave a part of the shares in the company for our Linji Group, which is equivalent to us taking the company. technology has become a shareholder.

"If they agree to this condition, we will not only not stop them, but also provide them with convenience and provide some start-up funds. But if they don't agree, they will do it themselves secretly, or go to foreign-funded enterprises with their technology. Go, then I'm sorry. If we follow the provisions of the agreement and make their lives worse than death, they are asking for it."

Hearing Tang Zifeng's last words, Gu Jiacheng grinned. Gu Jiacheng was aware of Tang Zifeng's shady and shady ways. When he said that he would make a person's life worse than death, he was definitely not talking casually. Gu Jiacheng even thought about whether he should take Tang Zifeng's words to the company and spread them to make those guys who were ready to act more honest.

"But Mr. Tang, what good will this do to us?" Gu Jiacheng asked, "Even if we take shares in their company, after all, we don't have the final say in this company, and this will bring some hidden dangers. .For example, if they open their own company but provide technical support to our competitors, wouldn’t it also harm our interests?”

"Do you think that by keeping these people in your hands, our competitors will not be able to obtain these technologies from other channels?" Tang Zifeng asked rhetorically.

"This..." Gu Jiacheng was choked again.

Some of the technologies Linyi Machinery possesses are leading in the country, and some are not leading in the country. At best, they are somewhat unique. The most important thing is that most of Linyiji's technologies are not leading in the world, and are even somewhat backward. If people can't get technical support from Linyiji, why don't they ask foreign machine tool giants for help? Can Linyiji be able to choke the necks of its peers?

Seeing that Gu Jiacheng had nothing to say, Tang Zifeng continued: "We are not going to drive all the technical staff out to start their own businesses. In fact, the majority of people are still afraid of going to the sea.

"For those who have already moved their minds, we cannot force them to retain them. It is better to take advantage of the opportunity of building industrial parks and acquiesce in allowing them to leave their jobs and start their own businesses.

"They are working for us in the company, and they have no enthusiasm. If they start their own business, the money they earn is their own, and maybe their enthusiasm will be mobilized. It turns out that the technology has not been solved in the company for several years. The problem can be solved as soon as you go out, do you believe this kind of thing?"

"I believe it!" Gu Jiacheng nodded and said, "Maybe these guys have found a solution a long time ago and are just thinking about going out and doing it themselves. If we force them to stay, they would rather rot their technology in their stomachs than It will not be taken out and handed over to the company.”

"You can't say that. Some engineers won't be so selfish." Tang Zifeng corrected.

In other words, the other part is indeed so selfish! Gu Jiacheng filled in the rest of the words for Tang Zifeng in his heart. The cadres of the entire group are very familiar with Mr. Tang's witty remarks.

What they said is actually inevitable. This is human nature.

It is true that most people still adhere to professional ethics, eating the emperor's grain and being loyal to the emperor. This is the minimum principle of doing things. But it cannot be ruled out that there is a small group of people who feel too little when they get paid and feel too tired when they work. If you have a little bit of ability and can come up with any inventions and creations, the first thing you think of is not to hand them over to the company to contribute to the company's development, but how to use these technologies to gain the greatest benefit for yourself.

Naturally, there are various reward mechanisms in the company. For those who can solve major technical problems, Linji Group has always been generous with rewards. There are already many engineers who have received hundreds of thousands of bonuses at a time.

But the human heart can never be satisfied. The technologies that the group can offer hundreds of thousands in large prizes are often worth tens of millions or even hundreds of millions. When some private organizations hear about this kind of thing, they will come to discuss with these engineers, willing to pay a higher price to buy, or invite them to take shares. They can promise millions in benefits with just one mouth. Can these people not be tempted? ?

In fact, this is true for the technical department, and the same is true for the business department. As early as when Zhou Heng and Tang Zifeng first came to Yiji, they had heard that some salesmen transferred business from factories to township enterprises to earn commissions from them. The approach adopted by Zhou Heng and Tang Zifeng at that time was to give the salesmen a portion of the business commission to protect their enthusiasm, and on the other hand to crack down hard on all kinds of cheating behaviors.

Despite such measures, it is still difficult to stop taking company business outside. After some salesmen have established stable customer relationships, they quit their jobs and set up their own sales companies to serve as brokers for these customers, earning several times more money than they did in the group.

After hearing and witnessing this phenomenon, some old people will lament that people's hearts are not as old as they used to be, saying that the social atmosphere is bad, "thinking about what we were like back then" and so on. Such words are useless. There have always been dedicated people, such as Qin Zhongnian, Xiao Ming, Tang Zifeng, Zhou Heng and others. But there is nothing you can do about people who are not dedicated. You cannot expect that giving them a political theory lesson will wake them up and lead a new life.

These people with selfish thoughts are actually capable people. Rather than keeping them in your hands and letting them sit there and eat nothing all day long, it is better to release them and let them display their talents. The ancients said that there is no better way to help each other than to look at each other in the rivers and lakes.

Objectively speaking, separating some promising businesses is also an inevitable choice for a large-scale company. When a company reaches a certain size, efficiency becomes low. The same product may achieve mediocre results if it is produced within the company. But if you leave it to a certain person and let him do it himself, he can achieve great results.

Large foreign companies, such as Boeing and Apple, will separate many professional links and focus only on research and development, complete machine manufacturing and marketing. This is the reason.

Tang Zifeng's such ambition also stems from his confidence in Linji Group and even the entire country. He knows that China is in a period of rapid development and there are plenty of opportunities in the market. In the future, everyone will work together to open up foreign markets. There is no need to worry about the gains and losses of one city or one pool domestically.

It is precisely because of this idea that Tang Zifeng strongly supports the construction of Gaotan Machine Tool Industrial Park in Linhe City. Now some people in the group want to leave the group and start their own businesses, and Tang Zifeng also supports them. These people only master a part of the machine tool technology and cannot pose a threat to Linji Group's complete machine business.

As for if they make achievements in a certain niche, such as creating the world's number one self-lubricating guide rail, Tang Zifeng would be more interested in it. From now on, Linji Group's machine tools will use their guide rails. After all, he is from the group, so everyone knows the ins and outs, and maybe he can get a discount when buying guide rails.

"Lao Gu, in this matter, the company has a principle. For capable employees, try to keep them as much as possible, give them better treatment, and give them opportunities to display their talents. If you really can't keep them, don't force them. Keep a front line in your work so that we can meet in the future. For those who want to start a business, we can buy a share without pursuing a controlling stake, as long as we can participate in their business.

"In the future, if dozens of world-famous machine tool technology companies grow from the roots of Linyi Machinery, this will also be our glory, right?" Tang Zifeng said.

Gu Jiacheng patted his head exaggeratedly and said: "Oh, I am an old-minded person, but I am not as open-minded as you, Mr. Tang. Isn't it? Even if these people go out, they are still our people who have an opportunity. They have made achievements. It is also a contribution to the country, and it is also our glory."
