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

Chapter 716 Senlian Capital has its own labor law! Coincidentally, my boss does too!

That afternoon, Beijing was placed under martial law. A large number of inspectors were stationed at the airport and highway entrances, and red and blue police lights flashed continuously in the night, weaving a tight prevention and control network at every entrance and exit of the city.

Outside Terminal 3 of the airport, inspectors are checking each departing vehicle one by one, leaving no corner unchecked, including the trunk, chassis, and under the seats, where dangerous items might be hidden.

Long queues formed at highway checkpoints, where staff with metal detectors carefully checked the identity information of each passenger.

It's not entirely because of Senlian Capital; the key point is that in a place like Yanjing, the attack on and killing of researchers is considered an extremely serious offense by the authorities.

After all, if the other party can attack researchers, they may attack the staff of the Central Security Department in the future, which clearly shows that there are loopholes in the current security system!

Sun Huajun, head of the Foreign Affairs Association, immediately called the person in charge in Annam and questioned him in a tough tone: "Do you want to provoke a dispute again?"

Upon hearing this, the Annan leader panicked and hurriedly inquired about the details. After understanding the situation, he immediately patted his chest and promised to fully cooperate with the investigation.

The next morning.

The CEOs of Gaode Maps, Today Technology, ByteDance, Xiaohongshu, Tiangong Technology, and Xingyuan Technology all forwarded the all-staff email sent by Chen Yansen.

Although the email was brief, the message it conveyed was extremely important.

Starting October 20th, these subsidiaries on the list will follow the same "four days on, three days off" work schedule as Orange Technology, Pinbei, and DeepBlue Technology.

Yunsu, Kuaipao, and Orange Mobile Phone Factory will strictly implement a two-day weekend system.

The news brought joy to some and sorrow to others.

For Yunsu's deliverymen and Kuaipao's food deliverymen, working four fewer days a month certainly means more rest and a more comfortable life, but their income is estimated to decrease by 600 to 1000 yuan, which inevitably leaves them feeling a bit resentful.

But they also understand that the big boss's implementation of a two-day weekend is not a bad thing.

Before, I was constantly on edge, and there was no guarantee that I wouldn't bump into someone while riding my bike, or be bumped into by someone else. Getting more rest would also provide more safety.

However, the happiest people are the part-time staff of Kuaipao Delivery.

Full-time riders get four more days off each month, which means more orders will go undelivered.

Kuaipao either needs to distribute these orders to part-time riders or increase the number of full-time riders.

In fact, their guess was soon confirmed.

That morning, the part-time riders of KuaiRun received a pop-up notification on the app: the full-time rider team will be expanding again, and this expansion will be a targeted selection process.

KuaiRun's delivery capacity department will comprehensively consider the daily delivery order volume, delivery time, and service evaluation of part-time riders, and convert 30,000 qualified part-time riders into full-time riders in one go.

at the same time.

In front of a shopping mall at Wuyuan Bridge, several Taodian delivery riders gathered together.

A chilly autumn wind blew by, and the men, each with a cigarette dangling from their lips, chatted idly, puffing out clouds of smoke.

"You guys tell me, they're both bosses, so why is Brother Sen so honest with his employees? But Old Ma just talks nonsense all the time, it's not fair."

"Ma Liyun is all talk. He keeps saying he doesn't care about money, but he won't even give us a chance to become permanent employees. We've been working here for more than half a year with no hope at all. We might as well go do a part-time job running errands!"

"That's right! Tao Diandian's full-time job isn't very promising. Although there's a base salary and social security contributions, it's all at the minimum standard. Kuai Pao, on the other hand, gets four quarterly bonuses a year, each time at least ten thousand yuan, which is almost equivalent to two months' salary. It's so damn comfortable!"

"Why don't we switch jobs and go to Kuaishou? Even if we have to wait in line for a year or two, we might be able to get a permanent position. If we stay at Taodian, when will we ever get ahead?"

The group chatted amongst themselves, their voices full of complaints.

It's worth noting that Taodian has been online for almost two years, and the total number of full-time riders is only slightly over 30,000. They absolutely refuse to convert part-time riders to full-time riders.

After all, hiring full-time riders requires paying a base salary and social security contributions as required, which would increase labor costs by at least 30%, and Ali is simply unwilling to spend the money.

"It's not easy to get into the full-time program at Kuaipao either. I've heard many people say that they waited in line for a year but still couldn't become full-time."

"But if you don't even do the part-time job of running errands, won't you never have a chance to become a full-time employee?"

"Damn it! I've really had enough of Tao Diandian! Last month I got hit by a car, and Ali didn't even bother to ask about it! We work ourselves to the bone to make money for Boss Ma, and he treats us like disposable utilities!"

"Besides, although the pay per rider on Kuaipao is a bit low, at least there's a guarantee!"

The more they talked, the angrier they became, and finally they simply hopped on their electric scooters and sped off towards the nearby Kuaipao network point.

They finally understood that even if they had to wait in line, they would register first and reserve a spot.

at the same time.

At the Orange Mobile Phone factory in Luzhou, tens of thousands of workers have lost their usual smiles.

If they don't work overtime on weekends, how will they make money?

In the assembly workshop, Sun Haiyang quietly nudged Yao Xin beside him and asked in a low voice, "Xinzi, what do you think about this?" "Does it matter what I think?" Yao Xin shrugged, his tone full of helplessness. "The big boss set the rules, can they be changed? Don't overthink it. We get two days off a week, isn't that great?"

He felt bad because he worked four fewer days a month, which meant he lost 800 yuan.

But he knew he couldn't change his boss's decision.

"Sigh, I just want to work overtime to earn money, is that wrong?"

Uncle Li next door sighed softly.

He paused and then said, "Haiyang and Xinzi, you two are college students, well-read and educated. Could you post on the intranet to appeal to the boss and ask if we could continue working overtime?"

"Uncle Li, do you think I'm stupid? I won't do something like that!"

Yao Xin pursed his lips, knowing exactly what was going on.

He didn't want to be the one to stick his neck out and be used as a pawn.

What if he upsets the boss and gets fired?
It's worth noting that in Luzhou in 2014, even without working overtime on weekends, the pre-tax monthly salary at the Orange Mobile Phone Factory was 8,900 yuan, and with quarterly bonuses, the income easily exceeded 10,000 yuan.

With such a good job, he shouldn't bother making trouble for a few hundred yuan in overtime pay.

After saying that, Yao Xin turned to Sun Haiyang and patted his arm: "You're such a jerk! Don't you enjoy the weekend? Let's have some skewers on the pedestrian street tomorrow night, it's on me."

"What about me?" Uncle Li, who was standing to the side, immediately put away his worried look and came over with a smile to ask.

“Together!” Yao Xin readily agreed.

When Uncle Li heard Yao Xin say that, the worry on his face instantly disappeared, and he chuckled and said, "That's great! I've been craving the lamb skewers from that place on the pedestrian street for a long time, but I just haven't been able to bring myself to spend the money."

"..." Yao Xin opened his mouth, his face immediately darkened, and his first reaction was to refuse.

But then she remembered that Uncle Li had two children in college, which was a heavy burden for him. His frugality was understandable, so she swallowed her words.

Old Li is indeed stingy, but he doesn't have any bad habits.

For a time, although employees at Yunsu, Kuaipao, and Orange Mobile's factories were dissatisfied, no one dared to post questions on the internal network.

Don't be fooled by their loud complaints and grumbling; if you actually asked them to resign, not one of them would be willing.

Starting at 1 p.m., people began posting updates online about Senlian Capital's recent institutional adjustments.

It wasn't until 2 PM that Huxiu IT contacted Senlian Capital's public relations department. After official confirmation, Senlian Capital's new policy of implementing a two-day weekend for all employees and widely promoting a "four-day work week" was officially implemented.

At 2:15 PM, Huxiu was the first to post an update with a headline that directly highlighted the core message: "4 days on, 3 days off, remarkable results, workers' happiness is off the charts!"

The dynamic content details the rest system divisions of each subsidiary of Senlian Capital.

Simply put, all employees of Senlian Capital's most profitable subsidiary enjoy the "four days on, three days off" benefit.

Even logistics companies like KuaiPu and YunSu, as well as labor-intensive manufacturing companies like Orange Mobile Phone Factory, have fully entered the two-day weekend era.

On Weibo's trending topics list, topics such as "Senlian Capital works four days on and three days off", "Working people are so envious they're crying", and "the ceiling of corporate benefits" climbed at a visible speed, occupying the top five trending topics in less than half an hour.

The comments section exploded, with netizens leaving messages complaining about their own company's "stinginess".

"Other companies never disappoint me! My company only offers one day off a week, and there's no overtime pay. Compared to them, I'm practically going through a trial by fire!"

"What kind of amazing work schedule is this 4-day work week with 3-day rest? I'm working 996 every day, and I feel like my body is about to collapse. When will our company catch up with this trend?!"

"Don't you understand the saying 'A person thrives when they move, a tree dies when it's moved'? If you can't change your boss, then find another job!"

"The Orange Mobile Phone factory has changed from a single day off to a two-day day off, which will definitely affect production capacity. They will most likely have to expand their workforce. The smart ones are already revising their resumes and preparing to apply for jobs!"

"No! Truly smart people would have already sent out their resumes!"

Before the culture of involution became widespread, Senlian Capital became a pioneer in combating involution, becoming the first company in China to implement an eight-hour workday and weekend system on a large scale.

Netizens joked: "Senlian Capital has its own labor law, which has changed the two-day weekend to a three-day weekend; our company's boss also has his own labor law, which has changed the two-day weekend to a one-day weekend."

"Me too! Our boss forces us to do the money-grabbing dance in the morning, and then we have to have a brainwashing meeting at 10 pm, making us learn some kind of wolf culture every day! But the problem is, I can't even afford meat, so where do I get the wolf culture?"

"I simply switched jobs to deliver packages. Although it's tiring and tough, at least I can avoid the empty promises my boss makes."

While netizens were busy discussing the matter, Senlian Capital was also actively recruiting.

For Chen Yansen, implementing a two-day or three-day weekend is not the goal; his real aim is to recruit more people and earn more humanitarian income.
