I can become stronger by paying salaries. I have one billion employees!

Chapter 148 Orange Factory No. 2, Fox Tao's last salary increase (asking for monthly tickets)
The next morning, in the Orange Factory dormitory.

Brother Zhu was half-closed-eyed. When he heard the noise coming from his ears, he opened his eyes with difficulty. When he saw the clock pointed to 8:20, he immediately got up as if by reflex and rushed to the bathroom with the toothbrush holder.

"Brother Zhu, you have a day off today. Why are you getting up so early?"

A co-worker who was lying on the bed playing with his mobile phone saw his hurried look and asked curiously.

Li Yunzhu, who had just walked to the door, stopped suddenly. Then he remembered that he had worked overtime for 7 consecutive days and was forced by the team leader to take a day off.

"Fuck! I was so sleepy I thought I was at the Strawberry Factory. What were you guys chattering about?"

Li Yunzhu slapped his head and suddenly realized.

The Strawberry Factory was where he previously worked, screwing screws. The hourly wage was 10 yuan, and the overtime pay was 10 yuan regardless of whether he worked on weekends or weekdays.

If you want to earn 5000 yuan a month, you really have to risk your life.

"Of course we're talking about salary. Damn, the salary is paid on the 1st. This boss deserves to make a lot of money!" The coworkers cursed and praised at the same time.

Li Yunzhu turned around and walked to the bed, put down the toothbrush holder, picked up the Big Pineapple copycat phone, and opened the text message.

果然有一条8点05分的未读信息：您账号4178于9月1号08:05分入账5136.40元，余额42846.70元。

After deducting five insurances and one fund, the remaining amount is just over 5,000 yuan.

I worked 27 days last month and only had 4 days off, but this 5000 yuan is much easier to earn than at the Strawberry Factory.

According to Strawberry's basic salary and overtime pay system, Li Yunzhu has to work 18 hours a day to get this amount.

"Brother Zhu, how much did you make last month?" A coworker saw him staring at the text message in a daze and asked with a smile.

"Not much, at least less than ten thousand." Li Yunzhu smiled, put the phone in his pocket, and didn't tell the truth.

To be honest, the salary at the Orange Factory is only a little over a thousand more than that at other factories, but the workload is nearly half less.

The young guys stayed in the dormitory for a while and then decided to go shopping in the city.

They used to work 16 hours a day and had no energy to go out and play. Now that their working hours have been shortened, they are gradually regaining the vitality of young people.

Li Yunzhu and his companions walked out talking and laughing.

There is still a long line of interviewers in front of the Orange Technology Factory gate.

"Brother Zhu, didn't they say the second round of recruitment was over? Why are there still people coming for interviews?"

The coworker scratched his crotch, looking confused.

"I guess the boss wants to expand production capacity. I heard our factory has sold over 200 million mobile phones, and only shipped 40 last month. With so few people, how long will it take for people who buy phones to receive them?"

Li Yunzhu is quick-witted and sweet-spoken. He likes to get close to the team leader and is better informed than ordinary workers.

"That's right! If we sell more, our jobs will be more secure."

Assembly line workers like them are more afraid of not having orders than their bosses. Without orders, the machines have to stop and they won't make any money.

……

……

Chen Yansen sat on the sofa and called out the system panel.

8月的人道薪火有1847缕，加上7月余下的19缕，一共1963缕。

After synthesizing 19 strands of divine flames, he added them all to spiritual attributes.

The familiar feeling came over Chen Yansen, making him feel as relaxed as if he was soaking in a hot spring, and the burning sensation in his brain was no longer there.

These few additions made him feel more refreshed.

Seeing his spirit value change to 10.49, Chen Yansen sighed, feeling that the improvement speed was too slow.

Although Orange Technology has expanded from more than 60 people to 200 people, and the factory has recruited another 600 people, the speed of acquiring humanitarian torch is still not ideal.

"This is the first time I feel that too low labor costs are not a good thing."

Chen Yansen chuckled softly and whispered helplessly.

For an Orange mobile phone that costs 1999 yuan, even if overtime pay is given in full compliance with labor laws, workers only get 12 yuan per phone.

It’s less than 1% of the selling price!
"No, we need to raise their salaries. As employees of Chen Yansen, they earn so little every month. If word gets out, people will think Orange Technology can't make any money."

Chen Yansen frowned and then made a decision.

Chen Yansen immediately called Cao Dahua and said, "Hey, Lao Cao, starting from September, the hourly wage for workers will be increased to 20 yuan."

"How much?" Cao Dahua had just arrived at the office and thought he had misheard.

"In the future, the hourly wage standard for processing fees will be adjusted from 15 yuan to 20 yuan." Chen Yansen said again.

Last month, the Orange Factory, including its R&D, marketing, brand and e-commerce departments, only spent 1300 million on human resources.

The gross profit of more than 40 Orange mobile phones reached more than 6600 million yuan, and the subsequent profits at the software level (advertising fees, game joint ventures and technology licensing, etc.) were at least 8000 million to 1 million yuan.

All in all, Orange Mobile's gross profit margin is around 20%.

Chen Yansen said that he did not want to earn so much.

"So, this month's labor costs will have to increase by 40%. Have you thought about this?"

Cao Dahua made a rough calculation and gave a serious reminder.

so little?
An extra 40% is only two or three hundred strands of humanitarian fire.

"Just do as I say. Also, how is the recruitment progress for Factory No. 2?"

Chen Yansen asked in a firm tone.

The production capacity of the No. 1 production base obviously could not keep up with the sales speed of Orange mobile phones, so when the pre-sale exceeded 1 million, Chen Yansen asked Cao Dahua, Zuo Hongyu and others to start the preparation work for the No. 2 factory.

"We've hired about 300 people. The main reason is that we're limiting overtime, otherwise there would be even more applicants. But after the hourly wage is raised to 20 yuan, we estimate we'll be able to hire all the people in three days."

Although Cao Dahua felt that Chen Yansen was wasting money, he didn't say much.

The hourly wage is 20 yuan, overtime pay is calculated according to the labor law, and food and accommodation are provided. It is hard not to be scrambled for such a great job in Shenzhen.

"Okay, that's it for now." Chen Yansen hung up the phone.

"I knew this guy was a spendthrift. He's paying 20 yuan an hour and ample overtime pay. I'm afraid the workers in Huaqiangbei are going to treat him like a god of wealth."

Cao Dahua smiled and shook his head.

After Chen Yansen finished explaining things to Cao Dahua, he went straight downstairs to the Entrepreneurship Park.

The campus was full of new students and their parents reporting in, so it was inconvenient to drive since the distance was only a few hundred meters anyway.

Chen Yansen arrived at the Entrepreneurship Park in two or three minutes. From a distance, the entrance was full of people. Song Yuncheng stood aside and couldn't squeeze in at all.

"What's going on?" Chen Yansen stepped forward and asked.

Song Yuncheng turned around and saw him, and hurriedly pulled him to the nearby dormitory. Seeing that no one was paying attention, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "These are all freshmen this year. As soon as they registered, they came to visit the Entrepreneurship Park with their roommates."

"Visiting? Fox hunting?" Chen Yansen understood what Song Yuncheng meant. "Yes, many of my junior students came to Xuyuan to study just for you."

Song Yuncheng looked at Chen Yansen with a hint of admiration in his eyes.

Chen Yansen is one year younger than me, but in just one year, he built FoxTao from scratch to a valuation of over 10 billion.

Even she, the No. 1 employee, felt like she was dreaming, not to mention the prospective college students at the door.

"Okay, I got it." Chen Yansen shook his head and called Zhan Guowei from the security department, asking him to bring people over.

There is no problem with visiting the Entrepreneurship Park and Fox Tao, but it must not affect the normal operation of the project.

After listening to Chen Yansen's explanation of the situation, Zhan Guowei readily agreed.

In a few minutes, Zhan Guowei arrived with a group of security personnel.

"What are you all doing here? Disperse immediately!"

Zhan Guowei shouted at the crowd with a megaphone.

He has a square face, thick eyebrows and big eyes. He has served in the army and speaks with great authority.

Seeing this, the freshmen obediently made way.

Only then did Chen Yansen see clearly that the lobby on the first floor was packed with people, and many people were queuing to go to the second floor.

There is not much space at the entrance of the stairs. If a stampede occurs, Zhan Guowei will definitely be the first to suffer.

Zhan Guowei immediately realized the seriousness of the situation and led his men to shout, "Which department are you from? What are your majors? Get out first! Otherwise, you will all be punished severely!"

Initially, a few girls were unwilling to follow the arrangement, but when they heard that they would be punished severely, they immediately became obedient.

People on the second floor also walked out one after another.

Zhan Guowei's face turned pale, and he was shocked to find that there were so many people crowded in the Entrepreneurship Park.

Fortunately, Chen Yansen notified them in time and no trouble occurred.

Zhang Wenbo, Xiang Pengfei and others breathed a sigh of relief when they saw these people finally leave.

"Are you Senior Chen Yansen?"

A little girl in the crowd stared at Chen Yansen for a few seconds, then walked up and asked.

Chen Yansen is 1.86 meters tall, and even though he was standing a little far away, he was still recognized.

"Senior Chen!"

"Wow! He's even more handsome in person than in the photo!"

"Senior Chen, can I take a photo with you?"

"Senior, I also want to join Fox Tao. Where can I sign up?"

A group of little girls gathered around, chattering.

The crowd was surging and was about to drown Chen Yansen.

"Scatter! Do you want to be punished?" Zhan Guowei shouted.

"Everyone, be quiet! Stand still and don't move around. I'm Chen Yansen. If you're interested in Fox Tao, please contact customer service and schedule a visit in your class's name."

"Students who want to work part-time should pay attention to the recruitment section of the website, the notice board at the entrance of the Entrepreneurship Park, and the BBS forum on campus."

Chen Yansen said loudly.

Because there were too many people, Chen Yansen had to reject all requests for taking photos and signing autographs.

But he smiled the whole time and spoke in a friendly tone, so the rejected girls didn't care too much.

Under the persuasion of Zhan Guowei and Chen Yansen, most people gradually dispersed along Yixing Bridge.

"Senior, I'm one of the first users of the Orange phone. Can you sign the back cover of the phone for me?"

At this time, a little girl came over with a pen and an orange phone, obviously prepared.

"Uh okay."

Chen Yansen agreed with a smile. Facing such a loyal user of Orange Phone and also a schoolmate, he really couldn't refuse.

Chen Yansen took the phone and signed his name on the silver back cover.

"Thank you, senior. My name is Ge Hui. Ge means to stop war and be strong, and Hui means smart."

Ge Hui's eyes narrowed into slits as she smiled, and she felt extremely happy.

During the three months of summer vacation, she went from being an old user of FoxTao to a new user of Orange Mobile, and was full of curiosity about this senior who was one year older than her.

After getting the signed phone, I felt like I had successfully chased my idol.

"Hello, thank you for your support of Orange Mobile." Chen Yansen greeted perfunctorily.

"Don't you want to ask me what my major is?" Ge Hui asked back.

"Ask next time."

Chen Yansen smiled faintly, said "next time", and walked towards the second floor, with Song Yuncheng following closely behind him.

"Brother Sen, you're finally here! These little brats treat this place like a tourist attraction, and some are even taking pictures. This is outrageous!"

When Xiang Pengfei saw Chen Yansen and Song Yuncheng coming up, he couldn't help but complain.

Chen Yansen thought to himself, this is nothing. More than ten years later, there are still people squatting at the door of the inspection station with their hands on their heads to take pictures.

All we can say is that each generation lives more abstractly than the previous one.

"Tell Xu Dan to gather all the team leaders in an hour to discuss salary increases for the second half of the year."

Chen Yansen gave orders, motioning Xiang Pengfei to go find Xu Dan.

FoxTao did not offer any salary increases in the first half of the year. Except for a few who were promoted and received salary increases, most people are still receiving the monthly salary from the end of last year.

"Brother Sen, I'll go right away! By the way, you look so handsome today."

Xiang Pengfei was stunned at first, then he ran out the door and added with a playful smile when he reached the door.

"roll!"

"Got it!"

Chen Yansen cursed with a smile.

Gao Weilin has been in contact with Lotte, Softbank, Ali, and Augusta. This may be his last time to raise Fox Tao's salary.

From the very beginning, Chen Yansen had no intention of treating FoxTao as a long-term project.

Now that he has found a suitable buyer, he can take this opportunity to withdraw and concentrate on the mobile phone industry and explore new tracks.
