Hiring people, do they even need to check their educational background?

Chapter 2889 Hiring people, do they even need to check their educational background?

Mr. Chen's office.

patter
Old Chen hung up the phone, his face displeased.

I just received a call from Old Qin from the Logistics Department. He was trying to find out about things, both openly and subtly. He also reported on the work progress and priorities, but his words were all jumbled up and he had nothing better to say.

"Boss, would you like something to eat?"

Secretary Guo came up and asked.

"What's there to eat? These guys have made us so angry we're full."

"None of them are easy to deal with!"

Old Chen picked up his enamel mug and took a sip of water, feeling as if he had been filled with water all morning!
"You told them to take the initiative, and this is what they did?"

"At least try to understand what people abroad need. Trying to do business with them when you know nothing is no different from a blind man setting up a street stall."

Hearing the anger in Mr. Chen's voice, Secretary Guo quickly explained from the side, "Boss, please calm down."

"The leaders all meant well; they also wanted their products to go global."

"Look at the tunnel boring machines from the First Ministry of Machinery Industry, didn't they have a great harvest this time?"

Hearing Secretary Guo say this, Old Chen's anger lessened.

"It won't be easy for this Ministry of Machine Building to take on this piece of fat meat!"

Old Chen suddenly sighed, and Secretary Guo nodded.

This time, the order from the First Ministry of Machine Building exceeded ten units.

Moreover, two of them were ordered by the alliance and will be redeemed using a set of mineral resources.

The only problem is that the current production capacity of the First Ministry of Machine Building is a bit low. At the current rate, it would be good if the task could be completed in three years.

I heard that the First Ministry of Machine Building is expanding its scale and is preparing to send some people to the Northeast to build a factory. There is a dense railway network there, a full range of factories, and it is also convenient to trade with the alliance.

Ring bell
The phone rang at just the right moment.

Old Chen rubbed his temples, then answered the phone.

"Boss, I'm Li Rong..."

As soon as Li Rong hung up the phone, Old Chen's face cleared up like the sun after a rainstorm, and all traces of gloom disappeared!
After hanging up the phone, he smiled and said to Secretary Guo, "Look, some people actively try to sell things, but people don't want them or even look down on them!"

"But some people stay in the back quietly, while others still scramble to buy them!"

"They even started fighting over it! What do you suggest we do?"

Then, smiling, he walked out, saying, "That's the difference!"

Secretary Guo listened with a smile, understanding the meaning behind Old Chen's words.

At the same time, I was also shocked.

Can nine units handle so many orders?
Ring ring ring

"Believe it or not, this is Yang Xiaotao's phone number!"

Old Chen pointed at the phone but didn't answer it. Secretary Guo nodded vigorously, "I guess Director Yang is getting anxious now!"

Mr. Chen nodded, then picked up the phone.

"Boss, it's me, Yang Xiaotao!"

Upon hearing the voice, Old Chen raised an eyebrow at Secretary Guo, who lowered his head and smiled.

"I recognized it! I recognized it!"

"Boss, something's happened."

Yang Xiaotao's voice was urgent, but Old Chen had already seen through Yang Xiaotao's thoughts and asked calmly, "Something happened? The transformer? It's nothing!"

On the other end of the phone, Yang Xiaotao was taken aback, then quickly said, "No, no, Mr. Chen, that's not what I meant."

"I've already figured out a solution for the transformer issue, and I've already spoken with Factory 709!"

"That's not what I meant. The foreign trade department placed an order..."

Yang Xiaotao didn't give Old Chen a chance to speak, and finished explaining the situation in one breath.

Finally, he added, "Sir, we request backup! We request immediate backup!"

Old Chen was amused by Yang Xiaotao's words, "Stop acting, kid. Supporting me?"

"Does me cooking for you count as providing support?"

"If you don't need support, figure it out yourself!"

Old Chen said this in a rather irritable tone, but Secretary Guo, who was standing to the side, could clearly see the gratified smile on Old Chen's face.

Secretary Guo understood that this was the treatment given to capable people.

"Boss, we have indeed tried many methods, but they are all just temporary fixes."

"As you know, this is just the beginning. There might be even more orders later. We don't have any other good options..."

Old Chen sensed a hidden meaning in Yang Xiaotao's words, so he interrupted and asked, "If there's no other good way, then what is it?"

"Hurry up and tell me, I'm busy eating."

"Hey, good!"

Yang Xiaotao nodded immediately, and then said, "Well, we thought about it and the main problem is that we don't have enough manpower."

"The pharmaceutical factory needs to double its production capacity and increase its workforce by at least 70%."

"Of course, doubling the manpower is a safe bet!"

Old Chen rubbed his forehead after hearing this, thinking to himself, "Just as I thought."

Currently, the manpower of the Ninth Department is more than that of the First Department of Machine Building, except for being slightly less than that of the other departments.

In fact, the total number of personnel was more than twice that of the Seventh Ministry of Machinery Industry.

However, since this matter was not made public and people didn't pay attention to it, no one took it seriously.

Although the Ninth Department has a large number of people, it is well managed.

In addition, the benefits are much better than those of other departments, so people who enter the Ninth Department cherish it and abide by the rules of the Ninth Department. As leaders, they don't want to cause any trouble.

But what if they expand recruitment...?

Old Chen thought for a moment and realized that the nine ministries had expanded their recruitment quite a few times over the years.

Last time, someone raised an objection, saying that some of the Nine Departments' industries could be split up, including pharmaceutical factories.

However, once the nine subsequent white papers were released, this argument was erased.

Even if you were to split it into nine parts, there would still be some left over.

If the industries that are dismantled lose the support of the Ninth Ministry and their potential is exhausted, then things will be in a bad situation.

More importantly, does that mean they stop researching once they've made the distinction?

By then, both sides will be researching the same direction. If they can't produce it themselves, but the nine parts are produced, it will be even more embarrassing.

This isn't the first time something like this has happened. Take machine tools, for example; how many people have been proven wrong?

"Boss, there's also the issue of photocopier production. This time, we need skilled workers..."

"And computers too. Don't be fooled by the small number of orders for these; we'll need even more people for them!"

"As a result, we'll use more raw materials, so downstream companies will also need to hire more staff to ensure the production and supply of raw materials..."

"Boss, please say something!"

Yang Xiaotao spoke for a while, but there was no sound on the phone.

If it weren't for the absence of a busy signal, Yang Xiaotao would have thought the other party had hung up.

Just as Yang Xiaotao was pondering what to say again, Old Chen's voice suddenly came from the phone, "Write a report, and make sure it's clear!"

"Yes, I understand. I'll draft it right away and send it to you this afternoon!"

Yang Xiaotao immediately agreed with a smile, but Old Chen shook his head, "I'm just destined to be a workaholic for you all!" "Dinner's ready!"

"Okay, boss, I hope you have a good appetite and enjoy your meal!"

After hanging up the phone, Yang Xiaotao looked at Liu Lixue, who was waiting beside him, and immediately instructed, "Tell Secretary Li and the others to get ready!"

"Yes!"

Lou Xiao'e immediately ran out, and after she left the office, cheers could be faintly heard in the corridor.

I didn't even have time for lunch; I was busy organizing and processing a report, and then made two copies.

In the afternoon, Yang Xiaotao brought Li Hongfeng and Lao Hong to Chen Lao's office and reported on the current situation of the Ninth Department.

The document also detailed the number of people to be recruited and the arrangements for those recruited.

In addition, it also includes the personnel costs after the expansion, the expenditure of money and food, and the estimated value created for revolutionary construction.

Finally, by providing a large number of jobs, it can drive social progress and improve family life, among other things.

The document was written in great detail, but in Mr. Chen's view, there was only one thing.

Stablize!

The Ninth Division can stabilize its organizational structure and maintain a stable output of products by expanding its workforce.

The city of Beijing, and even the location of factories under the jurisdiction of the nine ministries, can provide more jobs and stabilize local development.

Stability is something he has been emphasizing in his mind all along.

This plan is exactly what he wanted!
After Yang Xiaotao and the other two left Chen Lao's office, Chen Lao picked up the phone and made a call.

Then, in the evening, we arrived at the West Garden.

In the study, after showing the materials provided by the Nine Departments to Elder Qing, Elder Chen said, "Now, the development of the Nine Departments has reached a critical point. If we can break through it, we can enter another world."

"And this is the best opportunity!"

Qing Lao naturally understood Chen Lao's meaning and was also aware of the other party's plans.

At the same time, I saw the opportunity at hand, and the words Yang Xiaotao had once said came to mind: 'Seize the opportunity and take the initiative.'

"Okay, I agree to their request."

"However, I also have one condition."

Old Qing spoke in a serious tone, and Old Chen also pricked up his ears to listen carefully.

Then Qing Lao said, "Recruitment must be carried out strictly to prevent cliques and factions from forming and to eliminate unhealthy practices."

Mr. Chen immediately nodded, "Don't worry, I will pay close attention to this matter."

Siheyuan.

As news spread that the Ninth Department was going to expand its recruitment, the courtyard immediately became noisy.

Not only the courtyard houses, but people from all the surrounding alleys were asking about the situation.

Even the entire city of Beijing was abuzz with excitement because of the Ninth Department's expansion of its personnel.

Even the cold wind could not extinguish the passion in people's hearts.

Nowadays, who wouldn't want to be a worker?
Who wouldn't want to contribute to the revolution and its construction?

At least that's what everyone says when you ask them.

And the Ninth Division was the place the workers longed to go.

There, one could both realize the ambition of building a revolution and gain honor and improve one's living standards.

"Honey, you'd better go and tell them right away."

The three women in the front yard said anxiously to Yan Fugui, "This is such a rare opportunity! The third brother has been staying at home the whole time. Don't make a mistake with such a good opportunity."

Yan Fugui kept wiping his glasses, his expression anxious. "I know, I know."

How can I not be anxious?

"I don't know what's going on?"

Yan Fugui put on his glasses, then took a deep breath and tried to remain calm.

Seeing Yan Fugui like this, the three aunties could only worry helplessly.

In this family, Yan Fugui should still be in charge.

"This time, the Ninth Department has certain conditions for recruiting personnel."

After a long silence, Yan Fugui sighed and said, "What are the conditions?" The third aunt licked her lips and immediately asked, "What are the conditions?"

"Isn't it just recruiting young people?"

"Any other conditions?"

Yan Fugui snorted coldly, "Can't you just prick up your ears and listen properly?"

The three women asked anxiously, "Then tell me quickly, tell me quickly."

Yan Fugui took a deep breath before saying, "The first one is one's background."

Upon hearing this, the third aunt immediately laughed and said, "That's no problem. There's no problem with our background. Everyone in the courtyard knows that, and the Yang family knows it too."

Yan Fugui glanced at the third aunt and said, "What do you know? We have no problem here, but can our background be compared with that of the poor and lower-middle peasants?"

The three women were speechless, then quietly said, "Well, we should at least get a number."

Yan Fugui shook his head, "This time, many quotas were allocated to children in the countryside. Most of the quotas for people in Beijing were given to special groups."

Hearing Yan Fugui say this, the third aunt felt even more uncertain.

Then Yan Fugui said, "This is just the first condition; there's another one coming up."

"What?"

"Must have at least a junior high school education."

"What do you mean?"

Yan Fugui sighed again, "Don't you understand? It means that this time, we won't hire workers with an education level lower than junior high school."

"what?"

The three women immediately exclaimed in surprise, because their son, Yan Jiekuang, had dropped out of junior high school, largely because the school had closed.

"How could this be? How could they do this? How could they do this?"

The three women were frantic; it wasn't that they didn't want to go, but this was a problem.
"Alright, that's enough. You'll get into trouble if you don't speak properly. If you can't get up this time, there will be another time. Just shut your mouth and don't go looking for trouble."

The three women immediately shut their mouths, knowing in their hearts that as long as they remained in this courtyard, there would always be a chance to find a way out for their children.

On the contrary, if this matter causes unpleasantness with the Yang family, then it would be a loss rather than a gain.

Looking at the appearance of the three women, Yan Fugui felt a pang of sadness.

Who would have thought that the Ninth Department would even require educational qualifications to hire an ordinary worker?

And if the Ninth Division does this, will other factories do the same?

More importantly, both conditions must be met simultaneously to enter the factory, meaning that in the future, academic qualifications will become a threshold for workers.

If things go this way, who will dare not study hard in the future?
Unless, of course, you don't want to be a worker.

But these days, anyone who doesn't want to be a worker is a complete fool.

Thinking this way, Yan Fugui felt even more strongly that the children must be allowed to attend school in the future.

After a long silence, Yan Fugui clenched his fist and said, "I'll ask Teacher Ran to let Lao San go to junior high school in the countryside."

“From now on, our children must go to school.”

The three women understood the reasoning behind it and said through gritted teeth, "Yes, they must go to school."

At this moment, many people shared the same sentiments as the three aunties.

Why do nine departments require academic qualifications when they are recruiting?
