Let them go on strike with pay.
"Mr. Zhang, you are making things difficult for me," Bolinas said with a queasy look on his face, "Although I have some prestige among the workers, things like strikes are not something I can just say!"
If the employees really go on strike, then they will definitely not get any pay. Everyone has to support their families. Without a source of income, how can they live?
Moreover, Duan Duan has no reason to incite employees in the company to go on strike. The company's benefits are very good, and the work intensity is moderate. At least the employees are very satisfied with the overall situation of the company.
In this case, if he wants to lead a strike, none of the employees will pay attention to him, and even go to the company's senior management. He will be the first to be fired. By then, let alone the president of the union, he will not be able to hold a job. Gotta throw it away!
"Of course, I won't ask you to do such a thing for no reason." Zhang Mengyu took out a stack of contracts and placed them in front of Bolinas' eyes. "This is what I and hundreds of companies in the small town of Silicon Valley have You can take a look at the strategic investment agreement signed by the company."
"Investment agreement?" Bolinas picked up an agreement curiously.
"The salary increase for employees must not be less than 100%!" Bolinas's eyes widened. Zhang Mengyu not only gave those companies a huge investment, but even gave the employees a salary increase as a condition. Is this his preparation?
"Now, is there any way?" Zhang Menglong smiled.
"Yes! Of course!" Blaineston became excited.
Who are the people in their company? The management staff are all from prestigious universities, and the engineers are all experienced. Even the workers on the assembly line have been strictly selected.
Qualcomm Electronics is definitely the company with the best pay and the best development prospects in the entire Silicon Valley town. Almost everyone is trying to get into this company.
But Zhang Menglong actually doubled the salary of employees in other companies! Those ordinary workers earn higher wages than Qualcomm electronic engineers. Who the hell can tolerate this?
Are they going to change jobs? Can! But Zhang Mengyu's contract stated that employees who changed jobs would not be included in the salary increase.
In other words, even if Qualcomm Electronics employees want to find another job, they have no choice but to stay at Qualcomm Electronics if they want to make a living unless they leave this Silicon Valley town.
Even if Bolenas doesn't instigate it, I'm afraid the entire staff will be furious when they know the news. By then, relying on Bolenas's influence and prestige among the employees, he will be fully confident that he will at least lead More than 50% of the people went on strike in protest.
Bolinas expressed his confidence, and thought Zhang Menglong would be very happy, but Zhang Menglong frowned.
"50%? Not enough! I want at least 80% of them to go on strike!" Zhang Mengyu said.
"Mr. Zhang, this is unrealistic!" Bolinas analyzed, "Even if the company's treatment makes employees feel unbalanced, in our company, most of the employees are between 30 and 35 years old. At this age, There are seniors and juniors, and they are the age group that needs money the most. They need income, and even if their wages are low, they will continue to work!"
"Yes!" Zhang Menglong thought for a moment. When people are in poverty, as long as they have an income, they will endure it no matter how miserable, tired or wronged they are. Not everyone has the courage to go on strike.
If the company's top management is forced to raise wages under pressure, that's fine. But if the strike fails and the top management doesn't compromise, they will lose their income during the strike and will also be unable to protect their own rights and interests.
The most important thing is that the reason why those companies can afford such high wages is because Zhang Mengyu, the world's richest man, is behind the scenes. The money is all in vain, and they don't feel bad about the salary increase at all.
But Qualcomm Electronics is different. If employee wages are doubled, it will be a huge cost. Such losses may not be affordable by the entire company.
If the delay lasts for a month or two, even if the company can afford it, the employees may not be able to afford it!
"Does your union have a union fund?" Zhang Mengyu asked.
"Yes!" Bolinas replied, "The union's fund comes from the company's annual income dividends. On some special holidays, we will buy some gifts as benefits and distribute them to the company's employees, or use them to reward those who have shown great appreciation to the company. Employees who have made outstanding contributions."
"Give me your account number!"
Bolinas immediately reported a series of figures. Because of the support of employees, he has been managing this fund.
"Otto, give this account a transfer limit of 100 million US dollars!"
"Yes, Mr. Zhang!"
A moment later, Bolinas received a text message from the bank. This account really received a huge sum of 100 million US dollars!
"Mr. Zhang, what are you..."
"Aren't they worried about losing their source of income?" Zhang Menglong said with a smile, "Then if we let them strike with pay, there won't be any problem, right?"
"Paid strike!" I've heard of paid shit, but I've never heard of paid strike.
"For employees who are willing to participate in the strike, I will compensate them in full according to their monthly salary and even double their bonus. I have only one request. This strike must be large enough and last long enough. !"
"With your words, I am confident that more than 90% of the people will go on strike!"
Not only do you not have to go to work, you can even get twice the salary. Who wouldn't want to do such a good thing!
"Very good," Zhang Menglong nodded with satisfaction, "Starting from today, I will transfer 100 million US dollars into this account every month. After the strike is over, whatever amount is left in this account will be your bonus!"
"Really!?" Bolinas seemed to hear the most beautiful language in the world.
There is 100 million US dollars in the account!
There are about 7,000 employees who have joined the union, and the average income of these people is about 5,000 US dollars. Even with double bonuses, the average salary per person is only 10,000 US dollars.
By the way, I'm currently using the book-chasing app, [\Mi\Mi\Reading\app\\] to cache books and read aloud offline!
Even if all employees join the strike, it will only be 70 million U.S. dollars a month. He can earn 30 million U.S. dollars a month! This amount of money alone is enough for him to spend twice as much.
If the strike lasts a few more months, then...
"I, Zhang Menglong, will never take back what I said!"
"Okay! Mr. Zhang, I wish us a happy cooperation!"
...
In order to prevent Bolinas from doing anything unreasonable, Zhang Mengyu asked Ye Yin to quietly install a small bug in Bolinas' pocket. This bug was developed by one of Zhang Mengyu's scientific research institutions. It's only the size of a grain of rice, but its signal range can cover an area with a radius of 10 kilometers!
Relying on this monitor, Zhang Mengyu can monitor every move of Dao Bolinas!
After Bolinas left, he did not return to his company dormitory, but continued to stay in this bar.
He immediately contacted several other members of the Qualcomm Electronics Union, and after a while, five or six people gathered in a box in the bar.
"Bolinas, it's so late, what do you want from us?" asked a tall black man.
"Are you rich?" another union member asked. "The basic cost of a private room in this bar is several thousand dollars. Could it be that you won a lottery ticket and want to treat us to a bar?"
...
"Everyone, be quiet and listen to me!" Bolinas put on a serious expression, "The prize I won this time is bigger than the lottery ticket!"
