Chapter 1,790 The Quota Is Not Full
"Brother Chen, what do you think?"
At night, in the Tsing Yi shantytown, workers who had just returned gathered together again.
The small room was crowded with people, some standing, some squatting, some sitting cross-legged on the ground, pushing their legs into their arms.
Because of the height problem, all the people standing were bent down and looking forward to wait for Chen Shuanghe in the middle to speak.
"I want to stay." Chen Shuanghe lowered his head and said solemnly: "I have no other ideas, I just want to live a down-to-earth life."
"Old Chen, you are so greedy for money!" someone joked.
But everyone just glanced at him, and no one spoke to him at all.
If you are really greedy for money, wouldn't you have a better chance with Boss Huo?
Those big bosses who want to hire Brother Chen as a bodyguard are offering prices that are more than ten times higher than they are now. Is Brother Chen tempted?
"Be practical!" Chen Shuanghe raised his head and said unhappily: "That's all I want. My current life makes me feel solid."
“I make good money by working hard, I have enough food and warm clothes every day, my boss treats me well, and the company makes arrangements for my children’s schooling.
In a few years, I will save enough money to buy a room, and that’s how I want to live. "
"Who doesn't want to! I want to, too..." came the muttered whisper.
"If I miss you, just stay!" Someone sarcastically said: "Anyway, there are one-third of the quota, and I want to go back..."
"Go back when you go back. Don't talk about yourself being so noble. What's wrong with wanting to live an honest life?"
"Don't forget who sent you here. You thought you were capable."
"I haven't forgotten, but I just want to live a down-to-earth life, just like Brother Chen."
"Brother Chen has a wife and children, do you have any?"
"Shut up, everyone." Lao Chen suddenly stood up, and when he almost stood up straight, his back naturally leaned forward.
He didn't want to blow up the roof and let his wife and children freeze at night.
"Since I said there are one-third of the quota, if you want to leave or stay, it's all voluntary. In short, I want to stay." Lao Chen said with determination.
No matter what others thought of him, he decided to stay here.
The past two years were the most peaceful and practical time for him, and he couldn't bear to leave just like that.
——Let me be selfish just once!
Three days later, in the office of the administrative building, Li Zitao got the final number.
87 people, 6 less than one-third.
"Boss." The manager looked awkwardly holding the list.
He had promised the boss before that one-third of the quota was simply not enough, and those bumpkins who wanted to stay would definitely make a fortune.
It's better now, the slap in the face was caught off guard.
"Leave the list, you go out first." Seeing Elena's sullen expression, Li Zitao asked the manager to go out first.
"Angry."
"There are nearly 200 vacancies. Loaders and unloaders are easy to find, but where are the skilled workers?" How could Elena not be angry.
News came from HSBC that it has begun lobbying local shipping companies to transfer their business to Kwai Chung.
Seeing that the business volume is increasing,
On the contrary, the manpower is short by almost 200 people.
If the port is too busy by then, it will be a self-defeating sign, and even HSBC's reputation will be affected.
This is no small matter, and Elena wants to hear how he solves it.
"First recruit people from outside and improve the salary. In addition, I will talk to Lawrence to see if A can free up some people."
What solution could Li Zitao have? He was also caught off guard this time.
However, the situation is not as serious as Elena thought.
HSBC needs time to lobby shipping companies, and it is even more impatient to acquire Wharf.
When Wharf has no business, those workers will have to find another way out if they want to eat.
By then, the manpower problem will naturally be solved.
Therefore, meals should be eaten one bite at a time.
There is no need to rush, no need to be slow...
Otherwise, you will either not be able to eat it or you will choke to death, which is no good.
"Of course you don't need to worry about going back to Los Angeles." Elena was accusing him of being a hands-off shopkeeper, so she could say it so easily.
In fact, I was so jealous that I was going crazy.
In the past few months, Li Zitao has been talking to America on the phone almost every day, and Elena overheard the conversation.
Because of this, she knew very well why Li Zitao returned to Los Angeles this time.
It turns out that 25 years have passed without realizing it.
"Chen Shuanghe, do you know this person?" Li Zitao was looking down at the list at this time and did not notice her flashing eyes.
"Chen, he is very popular among workers." Elena came to her senses and said.
"Get him here, I want to talk to him." During this time, he needed to arouse the enthusiasm of all employees.
Let everyone devote 200% to the work. It will definitely be harder, but there is no need to worry about the remuneration.
In any case, the continued stability of the Kwai Chung Pier must be ensured.
When the follow-up recruitment, training, and dispatch of people are in place to fill the vacancies, there will naturally be no need to work so hard.
After a while, Chen Shuanghe, who was working on the dock, was called to the office.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw his female boss sitting on the armrest of the sofa, her hands on Li Zitao's shoulders, leaning sideways against him.
"Mr. Li, boss."
Chen Shuanghe's ears were almost on edge hearing the rumors about this Chinese super-rich man, so he naturally would not admit his mistakes.
"Master Chen, sit down quickly." Li Zitao politely invited the other party to sit down.
"Don't dare, just call me Lao Chen." Chen Shuanghe bowed and clasped his fists, his words and deeds had a bit of a Jianghu atmosphere.
However, the embarrassment can make people see that he is just copying a cat.
"Then you're welcome, Lao Chen."
After the secretary brought the tea, Li Zitao went out and said straight to the point: "Old Chen, I invite you here this time. I believe you also know why."
"Li Sheng, if you have anything, just give me your orders." If you rely on the mountains and rivers, you must have a correct attitude.
If Lao Chen wants to stay in Hong Kong and live a stable life with himself, his wife, his children, and his hot bed, he must adapt to the rules of the workplace.
You still need to have the respect and attitude you should have when facing your boss.
"You also know that most of the people who came with you have to go back, and the company is experiencing business expansion, so it will definitely be very busy in the next period of time.
I would like to ask you to do some ideological work for the other masters. The work during this period must be particularly hard, so please bear with me.
However, you can rest assured that your salary will not be reduced by a penny. "
As long as they work hard, there is no need to worry about the treatment room.
Li Zitao can guarantee that as long as they work hard, buying a house or a car within three to five years will not be a problem.
The future is even more limitless. In the future, Chinese will account for a large proportion of the management team.
