From knock-off old-man's electric vehicles to industrial giant

Chapter 102 Stars—Loyalty!

It was lunchtime in the afternoon.

The factory held a large gathering at the employee canteen, bringing everyone together to distribute the first-ever Mid-Autumn Festival benefits since the factory was established, during the mealtime.

Upon hearing the news, the factory area became lively.

During the gathering, a group of workers chatted as they walked toward the main canteen.

What are the Mid-Autumn Festival benefits?

"I heard it was mooncakes, and some high-ranking officials came to inspect the area, so they distributed the gifts and said a few words along the way."

"Mooncakes...that's it? Isn't this a bit stingy with the benefits? At my old chemical plant, they would give out rice, oil, or 200 yuan for Mid-Autumn Festival."

"What were the benefits like at your old chemical plant? What are they like here? Not only is it free room and board, but the salary is much higher, and you also get five social insurances and one housing fund. That chemical plant was always engaged in illegal production, working there would shorten your lifespan, and there were no social insurances. Last month, there was an accident with injuries and deaths, and the factory manager went straight to jail. Luckily, I left early..."

……

The assembly worker who spoke was called Lao Yao, and he was over forty years old.

Hearing his colleague's words, he shook his head.

This group of people used to be workers in a chemical plant. Not only was the working environment poor, but the factory's ventilation system was also inadequate. Dust and irritating gases caused many of them to develop respiratory and lung diseases after working there for years, not to mention the frequent safety accidents.

For the sake of their health, the group simply grabbed their buckets and ran away.

How can this kind of thing compare to the Starcraft Factory where they are now?

Those who have low wages and poor working conditions on weekdays, but give out cash and gifts during holidays to put on a show.

Even if the benefits and salary are good on ordinary days, and they don't even receive mooncakes or anything else during holidays, it's still a hundred times better than the former!
Having such conditions locally is like heaven and earth for ordinary workers like them; it's much better than working away from home.

Another worker nodded.

"That's true."

"Hurry up...don't miss it."

...

When they arrived at the staff canteen, it was already full of people. The factory director and leaders were all there, and the young man at the head of the group attracted everyone's attention.

"Hello everyone, since the factory was established, the company has been operating steadily, with quarterly profits and production capacity both rising sharply. I would like to thank everyone for their hard work all this time."

At Xingchen Automotive Factory, no worker is treated unfairly. Now that it's Mid-Autumn Festival, it's a good time to distribute mooncakes and cash so everyone can have a good holiday.

...

Xu Yi stood on the stage and spoke a few words crisply and concisely.

Then they started distributing benefits. Instead of wasting time on emotional appeals, it was better to take direct action.

The words just fell.

A commotion erupted below, and people immediately began to discuss it.

"Cash...and cash benefits!"

"I knew our factory had such good benefits, so they wouldn't be stingy with Mid-Autumn Festival gifts."

"This must be President Xu, the CEO of Xingchen Motors. He's so young and accomplished!"

"How much cash? Did you see it?"

...

Old Yao and several workers around him were craning their necks to look.

The surprise on his face was obvious.

Cash is great...it's so practical!
Xu Yi distributed benefits even faster than they did.

With a wave of his hand, the pre-prepared gift packages were distributed to all workers in batches by designated personnel, without any unnecessary praise or empty talk.

Each person will receive a mooncake gift box, plus a cash red envelope of 1,000 yuan.

It felt heavy when I received it.

"Holy crap... this Mid-Autumn Festival perk is amazing!"

"Didn't you just say the factory was stingy with Mid-Autumn Festival benefits?"

"Not stingy at all... I'd work at a factory like this for the rest of my life."

...

Upon receiving the cash benefits, many workers couldn't help but feel excited.

A strange feeling was spreading through my heart!

Although I haven't worked at Xingchen Automotive Factory for very long, I've already developed a sense of belonging.

There's no way around it—President Xu is just too "sincere"!!
...

Before they could even finish two sentences, cash benefits were handed out in a flash!
Regardless of department, job type, or performance, you can claim your rewards online!
What else is there to say!
Stars—"Loyalty!!!" ...

After distributing the cash rewards, the atmosphere at the scene became quite lively. Xu Yi smiled and looked at everyone in the room. After waiting for about five or six minutes, he raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet.

Then, they announced something that excited many employees.

"Please be quiet for a moment, I have something else to announce..."

"According to internal data, I found that many employees bought our own Star Mini after a few months of employment, which shows that everyone has a high level of recognition for our factory and our own car products."

"I would like to thank everyone for their support, so I am announcing another employee purchase benefit."

—Employees who have been employed for more than three months and wish to buy a car.

All employees can enjoy a 10% discount on internal purchases, with one slot per person per year. Employees who have already purchased a Starry Night Mini can also get a 10% discount back upon presentation of their purchase record.

...

After inspecting the factory, the production department reported another set of data to Xu Yi.

It is said that some of the workers in their factory, after working for two months, actually chose to buy the Star Mini for home use and commuting to and from get off work.

Xu Yi listened and smiled knowingly.

This shows that cars manufactured in-house have a very high level of acceptance among employees!
Very normal.

Although they are just a startup car company, their dedication to production and their control over the craftsmanship of each car, even the materials used in their microcars, are evident to everyone.

Although these production systems have very strict quality control and high requirements for workers.

But if they were to actually buy it, the workers would have a different idea.

joke.

What could give you more peace of mind than buying a car where you even have to screw in the screws yourself?!
The price isn't expensive either!
I have been watching the entire production process closely.

Many workers bought them because of this mentality, coupled with their commuting needs.

The employee purchase benefit announced by Xu Yi is considered a "common rule" in car manufacturing plants.

Some large car manufacturers offer employees a 95% to 8% discount on purchases.

This is done to make it easier for employees to buy cars, and it also increases the factory's performance.

However, some domestic startup car companies often use this system as a means of clearing inventory when new cars are not selling well.

They directly offered an employee purchase policy with discounts of 65% to 7%.

Make employees pay out of their own pockets to help clear out inventory.

Often, not long after doing this, the employees have bought cars, but the factory also stops production and collapses. Before long, the entire company may even go bankrupt, leaving behind a pile of ownerless cars with no one to provide after-sales service or warranty.

The 10% discount offered by Xingchen Auto for internal purchases is quite reasonable.

It was simply to open an internal purchase channel for employees who identify with the company's products.

So as soon as I finished speaking...

The staff on site became noisy and excited once again.

……

Old Yao and his group of assembly workers were sitting in the back.

An employee in his thirties, like most employees, looked extremely excited!
then.

He glanced down at the Mid-Autumn Festival bonus he had just received.

Lost in thought.

Suddenly realizing something, he couldn't help but smile wryly and say:

"President Xu's move was too underhanded..."

"I just received a thousand yuan, and now they want to take forty thousand yuan out of my pocket!!"

...

Upon hearing this, Lao Yao was at a loss for words, both laughing and crying.

He was just as tempted!
If it weren't for this internal purchase policy, he would have wanted to wait a while longer before buying a car.

It seems we can't wait any longer.

"What else is there to say—it's given!!"
