"Go ahead."

"About the unqualified rate of the product, I wrote a review and asked the boss to review it." Hu Zhibiao said, he really took out a copy of the material and handed it to Yang Fei.

Yang Fei was surprised and said, "Don't be so serious, right?"

"Yes, yes." Hu Zhibiao said, "Who told me that I didn't manage the company well! Even though the boss didn't punish me for such a big incident, I still understand in my heart. This review must be written. The group is open and disciplined.”

Yang Fei took it over, glanced at it, and said with a smile: "It's fine if you write it, but you don't need to make it public. What else is there?"

Hu Zhibiao said: "We acquired an electronic processing factory in the first half of the year. It has been almost half a year, and it has been losing money."

"Oh?" Yang Fei asked when he heard the excitement, "Before the acquisition, was this company in a state of loss?"

"Yes, otherwise they wouldn't have sold it to us."

"It's been half a year, haven't you found out the crux yet?"

"The cost is high, but we have been controlling the cost, but it is still high."

"Which factory?"

"It was a joint venture factory left by the British. The Chinese investor was too weak to continue, so he withdrew and left. We took over."

"I see. The current managers are from the British side, right?"

"Yes, they are actually very rigorous in doing things, but for some reason, the factory is losing money."

Yang Fei said: "Did you bring the report? Let me see."

"I have brought the financial statements for the past six months, please have a look at the boss."

"I remember, this factory is controlled by us, right? The British side only holds 30.00% of the shares."

"Yes. The boss has a good memory."

You know, Yang Fei is the manager of the entire group. He doesn't know how many companies, factories, and branches it has, and he doesn't know how many companies and factories he wants to buy or sell every year. He has to remember the specific situation of each factory. It is more difficult.

Yang Fei looked at the report and asked, "Is cost control so difficult?"

"Each index item has to exceed 5.00% to 15.00% of the cost. It is a low-profit industry, and the cost exceeds so much. Where can I make money?"

Yang Fei pondered and said: "Looking at it this way, I can't tell. It's best to go to the factory to have a look. It's still early, let's go!"

"Okay, boss. I'll go with you." Hu Zhibiao got up.

Yang Fei said to Chen Mo: "At home, prepare dinner first, please come over to eat with Mr. Jiang, have a small gathering in the evening, and open two bottles of good wine."

Chen Mo responded.

As soon as Yang Fei got home, he went out again before he even had time to finish a cup of tea.

"After the acquisition, we felt that the British management personnel should be good, so we didn't change it." Hu Zhibiao said, "After the assessment, their scores are also very high."

Yang Fei said: "If there is no problem with the management staff, then where is the problem?"

"The British managers all use computers to control raw materials. All procedures, including the purchase of factory ingredients, are also strictly calculated through computers. How many vegetables need to be bought every day and how many meals are cooked are very accurate."

"Really?" Yang Fei smiled, "In this case, corruption should be very difficult."

"All income and expenditure are transparent, and it is difficult for anyone to embezzle. Moreover, we also have managers who supervise every expenditure."

"Since it is so strict, why can't the cost be lowered? We are not the only ones making this kind of product. Since others can make money from it, why can't we?"

"The knowledge of management is too profound. So not everyone can work in an enterprise. I have made losses before. I made a lot of money, but in the end I still lost money."

Yang Fei said: "That's true. Management methods are very important."

Arriving at the factory, Yang Fei immediately had an in-depth and detailed understanding of the entire management system.

Indeed, as Hu Zhibiao said, the British manager of this factory admired computers very much, and controlled everything precisely through computers.

In the computer, all income and expenditure are clear at a glance, and the printed reports are also flawless.

But in the end, it was still a loss.

In the impression of the world, the management level of developed countries such as the United States, Japan, and the United Kingdom is naturally world-class. In terms of corporate management, these countries also regard themselves as the bosses.

Yang Fei looked at the data in the computer and found no problem.

If there was a problem with the computer, it would have been discovered long ago.

Yang Fei called the heads of the main departments of the factory, such as personnel, finance, and production managers, and asked about the actual situation.

Between questioning and answering, Yang Fei quickly discovered the problem.

"How many employees are there? Say it again."

"Eight hundred and seventeen people."

"Do you need so many people?" Yang Fei said, "How many shifts are there now? How long is each shift?"

"Three shifts. Each shift is eight hours."

"Can the production tasks be completed?"

"Easy to do."

"The more you finish, the more you lose?"

""

Yang Fei said: "There are too many people! Reduce the number to two hundred!"

"Two hundred?" The HR manager was taken aback.

Yang Fei said: "For such a small factory, two hundred people are enough. Many positions can be held concurrently. Foreigners like fine-grained management, and all jobs are divided very carefully. In foreign countries, they can do this, but in our It won't work in China!"

"Why? Boss?"

"Because foreign products are expensive! And the price of our products is often only one-fifth of theirs. Therefore, our cost must be controlled at about one-fifth of theirs in order to be profitable. The largest part of the cost is item, which is labor expenditure. Therefore, you must reduce the number of workers, and two hundred is enough!"

The personnel manager said: "I'm afraid that there will not be enough manpower."

"Afraid? I'm not afraid, what are you afraid of? I told you to do it, just do it!"

"Yes, boss. The workers' work intensity must be increased. What if they don't want to stay?"

"There are more than 800 people, and only a quarter are left. I think there must be someone willing to stay, right? Whoever wants to stay, the basic salary will be increased by [-]%. If you don't want to leave, you will be laid off!"
