Reborn Entrepreneurial Giant.

Chapter 467 Tianjing Factory

Honor now has more than 1.5 employees worldwide. In addition to the retail department, other job requirements are very high, but the quality of employees is not necessarily high with rapid recruitment. The company's internal governance will most likely not be able to keep up with the development of the company.

Motorola has more than 1.9 employees and its management system is more mature, but it is more bureaucratic and inefficient.

On the one hand, the development of Honor requires a large number of talents. On the other hand, Motorola has more redundant personnel and many old employees have equity incentives, so Motorola employees cannot be directly assigned to Honor.

Not to mention that Qu Li and even Lei Jun had no experience in an acquisition of this scale. If he couldn't do something well, he would hire someone else. Qu Li didn't care about money, so he hired a consulting company instead of poaching people.By the way, we should optimize the personnel composition of Honor and free up some positions.It would be great if someone took the initiative to leave Motorola and join Honor.

Qu Li met with Meng Pu, President of Motorola Greater China, and the two parties started cooperation to design a mobile phone priced at US$299. They were responsible for the hardware, and Honor was responsible for software optimization. It used the Android system, installed Google Play and KOSStore, and had OTA and Cloud synchronization service...

It is impossible to acquire Motorola this year, but starting cooperation from this year will be beneficial to both parties. The efficiency of Chinese companies cannot be compared with that of Europe and the United States.

"Those of you who left your job early to join Honor should know that Li Yinan is the head of the R&D department. He came out of the Chrysanthemum Factory and still bears their imprint. 996 is for sure. If you are not in good health and cannot work overtime, don't come... "

Apple currently has nearly 6 employees, and Honor has 1.5. If they don’t work overtime, don’t do 996, and don’t share profits in all aspects of the industry chain, how can they have their current development.For example, in Honor's e-commerce business, Qu Li didn't know that it was more profitable to sell goods. Why was there no objection to the cooperation with Shopee? Of course, it was because of insufficient manpower.

Apple's current net profit is more than 20%, while Honor's net profit in the first half of the year was less than 15%. There is a huge demand for excellent employees, which means an increase in efficiency.Therefore, Honor has launched campus recruitment globally this year, with a scale of about 2000 people. Together with social recruitment, including the construction of retail stores, the probability of doubling the number of employees in one year is very high.

Qu Li's words were told to Meng Pu, and he also told Meng Pu about his exchange with Sanjay Jia. The principles of this acquisition and integration were "profit contribution" and "risk sharing."The number of employees is not a problem. The key is that he wants talents, talents who can do things, not "idlers" who are used to fishing and can't keep up with the pace of Honor's work.

Later, Meng Pu took him to visit the industrial park in Tianjing, where more than 90% of Motorola's smartphones are produced.If Qu Li didn't understand production, he wouldn't be able to tell anything, but he participated in the construction of BYD Electronics' Xingsha factory, so he knew factory manufacturing.

Honor has a large number of carrier customers in Europe and the United States, and they are required to have an accurate delivery time. This is not enough. More and more customers want to participate in "customization", similar to the Chrysanthemum Factory Maimang series.Honor's current mobile phone production is predictive. It first estimates a rough sales volume and then produces it. Once the sales volume is overestimated, a large amount of inventory is likely to occur.

Well, Qu Li has accumulated a lot of experience in the "Danlin" brand. Coupled with the flexible production experience of fast fashion, he knows that in the future, he must change from predictive production to order-based production. This change in the production model will inevitably Factories need to make corresponding changes.

“Our direction of change in the future is as follows: from the beginning of product definition, sales channels must give a forecast, and then report it to the company’s middle office based on the forecast, and convert it into a material preparation application.

For materials with strong versatility and long cycle, the usage will be finalized at the early stage, while for highly customized materials, an assessment and prediction will be made 45 days before production.In addition, to complete this transformation, accurate predictions and pre-arrangements must be made from the material supply and production links, warehouse management links, and on-road logistics links..."

Following Meng Pu and listening to Qu Li's words, in addition to the Honor team, there were also some executives from Moto China, including the production department: "We need to greatly shorten the manufacturing cycle, from preparing raw materials, assembling patches, to final assembly and testing. When it comes to logistics, the time will be reduced from 16 days to less than 7 days, and the production time will be cut in half..."

"This can't be done!" Someone

"I have to do more than that. You may not know it, or you may not care, but more and more young people have their own ideas. The previous way of setting rules and forcing employees to comply must change. There must be more Humane measures. And I don’t think it will last long to trap young people in workshops doing extremely repetitive work. If the production method does not change, we will inevitably be changed by the times..."

Why do many people prefer to take out food and drive online ride-hailing services rather than enter a factory? It’s true that factory assembly line work can drain a person’s energy and make him live less than a human being.

"I never thought that this idea would be realized in two or three years, but progress will be made every three years, and intelligent manufacturing must be realized within ten years..." Qu Li finally added that these transformation ideas mean that future investments in the Tianjing factory will mainly be used for Quality improvement and standardization, digitalization and intelligent upgrade.

I originally thought that it would be a fun exchange between host and guest, with Qu Li making various promises. Unexpectedly, he not only refused to make promises, but also put forward many strict requirements, showing his strength throughout the whole process.

This makes some people feel uneasy, but it can also make other people feel more at ease. If Qu Li wants to do something, and it is very complicated and difficult, he needs "high-end, sophisticated" talents. Those who have the ability will naturally stay, and they will have a bright future. Probably bigger.

This is originally a screening process. It is impossible for Qu Li's speech today to be known only to a few people. It will also be known to more people in Moto to prevent some "bastards" from causing trouble, spreading false information and rumors, and driving away talented elites.

Conversation is conversation, so socializing cannot fool people. Qu Li definitely did not arrange this aspect, he only knows how to eat.

Someone asked him to find out about Qiancheng Motors, why Honor didn’t just build cars, and why it used the “Xpeng” logo.Anyway, the topic revolves around him, and Qu Li is the protagonist. He can't eat more if he wants, he can only brag.

"I sometimes do things impulsively. I tried Tesla's Roaders and the driving experience was pretty good, but I felt they were heading in the right direction, so I jumped on it rashly. Give me another chance and it won't be so troublesome. Established It’s a lot easier with a new company.”

Qu Li said "the truth", even including the undisclosed booking data of Qiancheng Geometry, and discussed the construction of its own brand.

"Before 2015, it was 5 years for Qiancheng Motor to accumulate strength. After that, our pure electric vehicle and hybrid vehicle technologies should be mature..."

"We can use hard power to change young people's minds about joint ventures and imported cars, but older, successful people can only rely on luck. One day I will sell luxury cars that cost more than one million..." Qu Li shouted If there are too many, how can he convince the rich to buy his luxury car?

But no one said anything to spoil the mood. People in society are just so realistic. Qu Li doesn’t drink much, and he finds it boring when he blows. His dream is not something that a veteran can understand.
