Chapter 1280: Chapter 684: Employees Who Want to Work Overtime During Spring Festival (Please Subscribe)_2
"Big White, let’s go."
Two hours later, the teaching work report by Director Qi Chunsheng’s team had finally concluded.
Principal Ding Yue was very satisfied with this semester’s teaching work at Mist City Arts and Science University, so he called Big White and left the Principal’s Office.
When he arrived downstairs, Ding Yue ran into Huang Youjie, who was approaching.
"Old Huang, why the rush?"
Ding Yue asked after seeing Huang Youjie.
"Isn’t this because I came to find you? Bin has been elusive these days, and with Chinese New Year around the corner, let’s go, shall we grab a meal together, just the two of us?"
Huang Youjie came forward, put his arm around Ding Yue’s shoulder, and said with a laugh.
"It’s not out of the question, but before that, I’ve been thinking of making a trip to the new energy vehicle factory." Ding Yue shrugged and said.
"Oh right, today is the day the new energy vehicle factory officially starts production, isn’t it?"
Huang Youjie came to a realization and quickly said, "Then let’s go, I’ll join you."
As Huang Youjie and Ding Yue were talking, someone came down from the upstairs; it was CEO An Yujia of Feiyue Group, whom Ding Yue had hired.
"Principal Ding, shall we go?"
An Yujia also planned to visit the new energy vehicle factory with Principal Ding today.
After all, the new energy vehicle factory belonged to Feiyue Automobile under the Feiyue Group banner, and the whole Feiyue Group was managed and operated by An Yujia.
"Alright."
Ding Yue nodded, then took An Yujia and Huang Youjie, and they drove together to the new energy vehicle factory.
At this moment, the new energy vehicle factory was bustling with production. Most of the workers in Feiyue Group’s new energy vehicle factory were actually former employees of Chang’an Group’s automobile factory.
After all, Chang’an Group had been taken over by Ding Yue’s Feiyue Group, so it was only natural that the former employees of Chang’an Group needed to be "settled."
Rather than paying severance, it made more sense to offer these former Chang’an employees new jobs. After all, they were still manufacturing cars, and these workers were experienced and skilled, saving quite a lot of trouble.
These workers from Chang’an Group could never have imagined that their own company had gone bankrupt, and everyone was at risk of unemployment.
But now, not only were they not unemployed, they had actually gained a whole new job, and the salary and benefits of this job were even higher than what they had received at Chang’an Group.
When they learned that sales for the Feiyue Future new energy vehicle had broken through a million, all the workers were thrilled, ready to join the frontline workshops to participate in the production of this national-level new energy vehicle.
Some old employees who had worked at Chang’an Group for over a decade had never seen a car that could break the one million sales mark within a month. It was nothing short of a miracle, and many employees of Chang’an Group even ordered a Feiyue Future New Energy Vehicle for themselves.
And it was for this reason that everyone had to do their utmost in quality control for the Feiyue Future New Energy Vehicle!
This was also Principal Ding Yue’s requirement for quality control of Feiyue Future New Energy Vehicles!
After arriving at the production workshop of the new energy vehicle factory, Ding Yue looked around and found that these workers from Chang’an Group were very proficient.
It was a shame that Chang’an Group, with such a team of automobile workers, hadn’t managed their business well.
Now, this team of automobile workers had become the main force in the production of Feiyue New Energy Vehicles.
"Thank you all for your hard work."
Ding Yue said to the automobile workers while inspecting the workshop.
"Not at all, Principal Ding. You’ve provided us with high wages, so of course, we’re going to work hard," replied a workshop manager.
"Principal Ding, should we continue production during the Chinese New Year holiday?"
At that time, a car factory worker asked,
"Old Wei, what’s everyone’s opinion?"
Ding Yue turned around, looked at the deputy factory manager Old Wei, and asked.
After all, production of the Feiyue Future New Energy Vehicles had just started today, and in one more week, the Spring Festival holiday would be upon them.
Ding Yue didn’t know whether these car factory workers wanted to go back for the Spring Festival holiday or stay at the car factory to continue producing the Feiyue Future New Energy Vehicles.
Naturally, Ding Yue wanted to respect the wishes of the car factory workers, despite the urgent need for the production of Feiyue Future New Energy Vehicles since they had already started presales on January first, and by March at the latest, after the Spring Festival, they would have to start delivering them to car owners sequentially.
"Principal Ding, I’ve already conducted an internal survey beforehand, and currently, the majority of our staff want to work overtime during the Spring Festival to produce more Feiyue Future New Energy Vehicles. Another reason is that all of us came from Chang’an Group, which has been closed for a while now, and we’ve just started work here. During this period, everyone has had no income, so they want to take the opportunity of the Spring Festival to earn a bit of triple wages."
Old Wei reported the general situation of the employees at the car factory to Principal Ding.
"So that’s how it is. Well then, Old Wei, we should still respect all the workers’ wishes. Those who want to go back for the holiday, we definitely can’t force them to stay, and those who wish to stay and continue working, let them get to it. The factory will certainly give triple wages, plus a Spring Festival overtime subsidy!"
Ding Yue said to Old Wei with a smile.
Ding Yue never shortchanged any of his company’s employees, even the school cleaning staff, in terms of welfare and benefits.
"Alright, alright, we’ll follow Principal Ding’s arrangements."
Old Wei nodded vigorously.
At that moment, Ding Yue shook his head and said, "No, no, no, it’s not about following my arrangements, but about making flexible decisions regarding whether to work overtime during the Spring Festival, based on the employees’ personal situations."
"Got it, I understand."
Old Wei continued to nod and said, "We will execute according to this principle resolutely."
And so, that afternoon, an internal email regarding overtime work during the Spring Festival was distributed at the Feiyue New Energy Vehicles factory.
When the employees saw that the company would respect the principle of voluntariness, allowing those who wanted to go home for the New Year to do so, and those who wanted to stay and work overtime to do so, with wages guaranteed not to be short by a penny and even additional Spring Festival subsidies,
The employees were overjoyed.
In fact, the employees were not worried about the factory asking them to work overtime, but concerned about not working overtime.
After all, they hadn’t earned money for a long time since Chang’an Group went out of business last year. Now that the Feiyue New Energy Vehicles factory had officially started, and they finally had jobs with very good salary benefits, what were they waiting for if not to earn more during the Spring Festival overtime?
Hence, in the Feiyue New Energy Vehicles factory, almost all employees had a tacit agreement to volunteer to work overtime during the Spring Festival in order to produce more Feiyue Future New Energy Vehicles.
Ding Yue truly hadn’t expected to encounter almost every employee willing to think about working overtime during the Spring Festival!
"Miss An, the folks at the car factory haven’t had it easy and want to work overtime during the Spring Festival to earn triple wages because they haven’t made money for several months. So, let’s increase the welfare benefits for everyone’s Spring Festival overtime, and ensure all kinds of protections are in place."
Before leaving, Ding Yue made a special point to remind An Yujia.
"Of course, Principal Ding, we will ensure everything is in place." An Yujia answered with certainty.
After Ding Yue finished his inspection of the car factory on the first day and returned to Mist City Arts and Science University, he received a phone call.
This call was from the Mayor’s Office at the Mist City Government building.
Ding Yue wouldn’t dare to neglect the mayor’s call and answered it immediately,
"Hello, this is Ding Yue."
"Principal Ding, congratulations on the official start of the Feiyue New Energy Vehicles factory," the voice of Governor Li came through on the phone. "I was planning to come over in person, but I’ve been really busy lately, so I can only give you this call..."
