Chapter 498 The Fang family is going to be unemployed again
in the afternoon.
When Qiao Yingzi and Huang Zhitao returned to Shuxiang Yayuan, they stopped by the store to inform everyone of the news.
The Spring Festival holiday has just ended and there is no business in the pet shop. Everyone is chatting idly in the shop. When they heard Qiao Yingzi's notice, the shop suddenly became noisy.
In the past, store managers were hired, but now they are managed through partnership. As long as you pay 25 yuan to purchase 55% of the store's shares, you can immediately take over the existing store and become the new store manager.
The store manager does not receive a salary, but can take 55% of the profits on a proportional basis. Of course, if he loses money, he also needs to pay 55%. In other words, he is responsible for his own profits and losses. The higher the profit of the store, the more money he can get.
Moreover, the prices charged by Qiao Yingzi and Huang Zhitao are not too high. Currently, 25 is not enough to join a brand milk tea shop in the city, let alone such a large pet shop with stable turnover. It is very cost-effective.
But after hearing this, some were happy while others were worried.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the pet shop had too many employees and would be able to make a profit immediately after the layoffs. With an investment of 25 yuan, the investment could be recovered in about a year of hard work.
In contrast, the leisurely working state will be gone forever.
Qiao Yingzi knew that no one would be able to accept it in a short period of time, and that she could not come up with 25 yuan in cash on her own, so she needed to discuss it with her family. Therefore, she left enough time for everyone to consider it.
When Qiao Yingzi and Huang Zhitao came out of the store, Fang Yuan hurried out to ask them.
Other store employees can choose to leave or stay, but Fang Yuan has only one way, which is to pay money to continue to be the store manager. Otherwise, no matter who takes over, he will be unemployed again.
"Yingzi, are you really going to open up the option of having a partner store manager?"
"Yeah." Qiao Yingzi nodded. "The store's profitability is a problem now. We need to try other operating methods."
Starting a business is a process of continuous trial and error, so you can’t just hang yourself on a tree.
"Then I would like to ask, after we become partners, will you still collect the rent for the shop?" Fang Yuan asked tentatively.
"Of course we accepted it. We are only transferring the operating rights of the pet shop, not selling the shop together. If we really sold the shop, let alone 25, even 250 million would not be enough."
Qiao Yingzi looked at Fang Yuan with a puzzled look.
She had made it very clear just now. No one would really think that they didn't have to pay rent. She and Wang Yidi were inexperienced, but they would not be taken advantage of.
Fang Yuan felt a little embarrassed when Qiao Yingzi stared at him with strange eyes.
"I'm just asking casually. You guys are busy. I'll go back and take a look."
After finding a temporary excuse to cover up, Fang Yuan hurried away.
In fact, the conditions that Qiao Yingzi and Wang Yidi meet are most easily met by Fang Yuan. Although the Fang family is different now, both of them have high-paying jobs.
But it is still an easy thing for the other family to just take out 250,000 yuan.
However, after investing money and laying off employees, the store will be very busy, which Fang Yuan cannot accept.
If he is very busy at work, he would prefer to go back to being a ride-hailing driver with more flexible working hours, so he can take care of his children during normal times.
After finding some time, Fang Yuan went home and discussed his ideas with Tong Wenjie.
"Sure." Tong Wenjie agreed very much. "From now on, you can stay at home and take care of the children full-time. I'll take care of the money."
"That won't work. Our family depends on you to earn money. It's too much pressure." Fang Yuan disagreed.
Tong Wenjie smiled smugly and lowered her voice, saying, "Our company's year-end bonus hasn't been distributed yet, but I've seen the details before. Do you know how much mine is?"
"How many?"
"That's six months' salary! I didn't even work for a full year last year, and I already got this much. If I work a full year this year, the year-end bonus I'll get will be even more."
Tong Wenjie used to get the 13th or 14th salary at most in the company, and had never received such a high year-end bonus. She roughly calculated that if she could get this much next year, she could cover the original salary of the couple.
"Were your profits so good last year?" Fang Yuan was a little surprised.
"Of course, the positions in our company are extremely popular right now, and it's impossible for outsiders to get in."
There are not many employees under the name of the film and television investment company, and most of them are members of Chen Jinnian's crew. They receive basic salary throughout the year, and there are no red envelopes distributed after the project is completed, nor overtime pay for overtime work.
So Chen Jinnian compensated them all in his year-end bonus.
People like Tong Wenjie who work in the office don't normally get such a huge year-end bonus, but because of the needs of The Wandering Earth project, she also went to Qingdao for a month as part of the company's assignment, so she followed the crew members and also received a considerable year-end bonus.
After Fang Yuan knew that his wife earned a lot of money, his anxious heart instantly calmed down and he became even more determined not to be a store manager.
"Then I'll just focus on being a househusband from now on, and leave the money-making to you."
"Of course, you have to take good care of us mother and son."
After Tong Wenjie finished speaking, she gently put the sleeping Fang Duoduo on the crib.
She has no financial pressure now because Tong Wenjie feels that Chen Jinnian's company is developing well and is still in its bonus period. In the next few years, there will be no cost-cutting and efficiency-increasing or labor-efficiency-enhancing measures, and she can make a lot of money by following him.
When Chen Jinnian's company's performance declines, she can still find another good company and continue to work as an executive with her many years of experience as a financial director.
What Tong Wenjie didn't know was that Chen Jinnian was already thinking about moving the company.
When the company starts to relocate, many non-Beijing employees will follow and will have an easier time living in the new city. However, people like Tong Wenjie who have families will most likely go through the contract termination process, receive compensation, and then look for a new job.
If Chen Jinnian knew that his and Wang Yidi's actions would cause the Fang couple to both lose their jobs, he would only say it was what a coincidence.
It is highly likely that companies with high labor costs will move out of first-tier cities, and Wang Yidi's pet shop has been losing money on rent, so it is reasonable that adjustments need to be made.
They are all the optimal solutions at the moment, but there is no place for Fang Yuan and Tong Wenjie in the optimal answers.
……
After Chen Jinnian finished the visiting relatives copy with his parents, he flew to Japan with Wang Yidi and a temporary camera crew.
They are not here to play, but to fulfill their contract.
The advertising contract that had been dragging on for half a year was finally completed thanks to the "extremely high" work efficiency of the working gods, and entered the early stage of shooting preparation.
Chen Jinnian asked for a huge sum of money at that time, but now it is obvious that he asked for too little. If he had known it would be so difficult, he would have asked for more.
