Chapter 153: Retention at All Levels and 0xue's Embrace
Li Xiaofan looked at Lin Qianxue and said seriously: "Well, dear Miss Qianxue, I got home yesterday and received a letter from the Singapore Immigration Department. They have approved in principle my application for a self-employed EP pass!"
When she heard Li Xiaofan call her "Qianxue" for the first time, Lin Qianxue felt a little friendly, as if the relationship between the two was no longer superior and subordinate, and she was no longer the superior boss.
She responded casually: "Oh, Affan, congratulations to you!"
After hearing what Li Xiaofan said, Lin Qianxue was a little happy for him, but also a little disappointed. The handsome and somewhat naughty boy in front of him left his workshop immediately. As a main force that he was cultivating with all his strength, and one of his right-hand men, he had already developed feelings after getting together these days. After all, he was a little reluctant to let go.
"Thank you, Officer!"
"You're welcome. But, Afan, I want to remind you that when you, the mainland employees, came to work in our company last year, you signed a labor contract with the company. If you personally request to terminate the contract in advance, you must follow the stipulations in the contract. According to the terms, you are required to compensate the company for a sum of NT$2,000 in compensation. Do you understand this term? "
"Well, I know. I have prepared the compensation and will take it with me now!"
"Oh, it's good if you know..."
It seemed that this tall and handsome boy who had once made her heartbeat was really determined to leave her and let herself go outside. Lin Qianxue's eye circles couldn't help but turn red. She glanced at Li Xiaofan and said, "Afan, you Have you really thought about resigning? The business outside may not be as easy as you think..."
"I have thought clearly, I will definitely resign this time. However, Officer, if you recognize me as a person, we may have opportunities for business cooperation in the future, and our communication space may be broader..."
Lin Qianxue sighed and said: "Well, now that you have thought it through, I will not retain you! Then I will sign now, and then you can go to the company's human resources department to discuss the specific matters of contract termination and compensation..."
"Thank you so much, Officer!"
Gu Weikun, senior manager of the human resources department of Westwood Electronics in Singapore, was surprised when he heard that among the newly introduced employees from mainland China last year, one mainland employee applied for early termination of contract and resigned today.
He was even more surprised when he later heard that this mainland employee was Li Xiaofan, who had just been praised by MD Saburo Inababe.
Gu Weikun, as the person in charge of the human resources department of Singapore Westwood Electronics Company, was responsible for the introduction of Li Xiaofan from mainland China through a labor agency last year.
At the last monthly meeting, after Li Xiaofan was commended by MD Saburo Inababe as an outstanding employee of the month, Gu Weikun was once proud.
This work of introducing skilled workers from mainland China has also been praised by Saburo Inabe, saying that the introduction can continue to be increased to cope with the growing customer orders and factory production capacity.
Gu Weikun was quite proud of this. He never expected that Li Xiaofan would resign and run away less than a month after being praised by MD Saburo Inababe.
He called Li Xiaofan into the office and interviewed him in person, hoping to retain Li Xiaofan.
At the beginning of last year in Hangzhou, he interviewed every one of Li Xiaofan's mainland employees, and he could almost name them.
Gu Weikun said earnestly: "Li Xiaofan, you are doing well, why do you want to resign? Do you know how many employees in our whole factory envy you! Last month, I finally signed and promoted you from level five operator to level two Level technician, this matter will be discussed at our Singapore Westwood Electronics Factory Unprecedented! Do you know how much our MD Inababe Saburo thinks highly of you? Why do we send you to Singapore NPB Productivity Institute for management training? We want to train you to become a workshop foreman FORMAN, or to become Lin Qianxue in the future? Such a workshop director..."
Gu Weikun said a lot of good things sincerely, but Li Xiaofan's attitude did not change at all.
"Thank you, Manager Gu, and the company management for your kindness. This time I really made up my mind to resign and start a business! If possible, it would be best if you could do me a favor and let me complete all the resignation procedures within a week. …”
Gu Weikun had all his good words, but Li Xiaofan was unmoved and could only say: "Okay, Li Xiaofan, you go back to work in the workshop first. This matter will be discussed internally by our human resources department and we will reply to you as soon as possible..."
In the morning, when Zheng Zaisheng, the manager of the production and manufacturing department, heard from Lin Qianxue that Li Xiaofan was resigning, he was also surprised and talked to Li Xiaofan himself.
He called Li Xiaofan to his office and asked, "Li Xiaofan, I heard that you are resigning?"
"Yes, Manager Zheng, do you even know about it?"
Zheng Zaisheng smiled and said: "You are such a famous person, of course I have to care about you at all times! In this way, Li Xiaofan, I just communicated with the Human Resources Department. If you are willing to withdraw your resignation, we can directly promote you from Level 2 Technician. Level 1 Technician. What do you think? If you get promoted to Level 1 this time, it will be the fastest promotion in the history of Singapore Westwood Electronics!"
The conditions were really tempting, but Li Xiaofan remained unmoved and declined: "Manager Zheng, thank you for your kindness, thank you for caring so much about me! But I really want to leave the factory and give myself a chance to start a business and try it out." Chance, I hope you can understand me!”
Zheng Zaisheng was helpless when he saw this, so he had to ask Li Xiaofan to go back to the workshop first.
During the tea break at three o'clock in the afternoon, Lin Qianxue called Li Xiaofan to the test fixture warehouse next to the workshop and communicated with him alone.
She asked: "Afan, is there really no room for your resignation? Even if Manager Zheng is so optimistic about you and wants to promote you, you don't want to do it?"
"Well, Officer, I am really determined to resign this time! I hope the company can approve my resignation as soon as possible, and I hope it can be within the validity period of the self-employed EP permit approval copy given to me by the Immigration Department..."
"Well, Afan, since you have decided to leave, I will no longer try to keep you here. Originally, according to the company's regulations, it will take at least two weeks to complete the resignation procedure. Just now, I went to communicate with Manager Gu Weikun of the Human Resources Department , I have helped you fight for it. Manager Gu Weikun said that considering the special situation that you have obtained the EP permit in principle approval from the Singapore Immigration Department, he replied that if the Human Resources Department helps you go to the Ministry of Labor to handle the resignation procedures tomorrow, it may be the fastest possible. It will take a week, they will get there as soon as possible..."
After hearing this, Li Xiaofan was a little moved. He couldn't help but hugged the female boss in front of him who was really kind to him, and said softly: "Officer, thank you!"
Lin Qianxue had a very nice body fragrance, which was refreshing.
Unexpectedly being hugged by Li Xiaofan, Lin Qianxue's cheeks turned red. She struggled slightly and said softly: "It's not good for us to be seen by others like this. You should go to the Human Resources Department to go through the relevant procedures!"
