The Development and Reform Commission leaders are not familiar with the process of establishing a higher vocational school. In addition, TEP is a foreign-funded institution and will become a nominally affiliated institution of the Development and Reform Commission in the future. After a brief discussion, it was decided to go to the capital city to communicate with the higher authorities.
However, in order to achieve "six years of continuous study" and solve the existing problems of the ancient city secondary vocational school, Xu Fei took out two million yuan and contracted the ancient city secondary vocational school in the name of a joint venture between Large Swamps Power and TEP.
Eight hundred students, some of whom were sent to technical schools by the Development and Reform Commission leaders, and the rest could choose to go to medical schools, high schools, or stay in school.
If they choose to stay in school, they can still obtain a secondary vocational school diploma, but they must sign a 5-6 year training plan with TEP and can only truly graduate after obtaining an associate degree.
With such harsh conditions, no one can be sure how many students will ultimately be able to stay.
What can be confirmed is...
The principal wants to go back to being a principal.
Some teachers also want to go back to teaching.
After Xu Fei finished the call with the Development and Reform Commission leaders, he glanced at the time on the BODA 818 screen.
December 27th, 08:45.
He then picked up the white internal phone, dialed a few numbers, and walked to the conference room.
After a while.
The military adviser team, the operations center, the sales department liaison, and the labor dispatch company leader arrived one after another.
The principal spoke first, "Factory Director, after our overnight discussion, we unanimously believe that the price you set at the beginning is the most reasonable and correct!"
"Hmm?"
Xu Fei was slightly stunned and suddenly remembered that if he couldn't come up with a new price, he would have to take the military adviser team, the sales department management, and the operations center to the construction site. "You discussed overnight and came up with such a flattering result?"
"No, this is the result of our overnight research."
The principal took out a stack of drafts, "In China, the Mechanical Three Kingdoms set costs eight yuan, without horses, and the consumer group is teenagers.
Teenagers are mainly concentrated in high schools and universities, which are at the county and city level. The grassroots supply and marketing cooperatives are located in towns. Even if some towns have high schools, their consumption capacity is limited and they cannot sell much. However, if these goods are returned to the county and city-level supply and marketing cooperatives, they will be cleared out in a day.
It can only be said that there is a deviation in the domestic sales strategy, but it cannot be said that General Huang is wrong, because the grassroots supply and marketing cooperatives must have goods to sell, otherwise what would the salespeople do?
As for the Japanese market.
The brand effect of the Mechanical Three Kingdoms is not as good as Lego, Bandai, Hasegawa, Tamiya, and Kemono House, and it is even worse than the Transformers launched in cooperation with North American children's treasure by TAKARA.
In addition, the foreign trade merchants, distributors, and retailers only have a supply relationship, not cooperation or binding relationships. Our current advantages are only the "tinplate design" and low prices.
It is precisely because of these two points that a strange phenomenon has appeared in the market: no one is imitating.
If the tinplate Mechanical Three Kingdoms are imitated, they will be affected by the ban and must use non-painted technology. In terms of production technology, few toy factories can do it. Even if they can do it, the cost is much higher than our factory price.
If the plastic Mechanical Three Kingdoms are imitated, in the face of the core gameplay of "collision", our tinplate shell and powerful spring power have an absolute advantage. And no one wants to buy the Mechanical Three Kingdoms and lose every battle. In addition, plastic lacks the metallic texture and cannot reach a high level. Therefore, plastic Mechanical Three Kingdoms do not have much market.
To sum up, we currently do not need to adjust the factory price, we just need to increase the shipment volume."
After thinking for a moment, Xu Fei nodded, "Currently, the daily production capacity of the Yellow Mud Hillock Toy Factory is 80,000, and the daily production capacity of the Large Swamps Toy Factory is 300,000. We can complete an order in about two days."
"Yes, but the final design of the fifth batch of popular heroes from the Three Kingdoms has not been finalized."
"The shipment speed is too fast, and the design company is having trouble keeping up. How about continuing to produce 'assembly-style Mechanical Three Kingdoms'?"
"But the Demon God Lu Bu needs to be disassembled. The daily production capacity is 180,000 sets, but the outbound volume is less than 20,000 sets."
"What about the metal display stands and metal display cards?"
"According to feedback from foreign trade merchants, the sales of both are very good. Especially the rotating metal display stand, not only is it popular among Mechanical Three Kingdoms enthusiasts, but even Gundam, Transformers, and even car toy enthusiasts are rushing to buy them. Due to the production process not being so complicated, Lego, Bandai, and other manufacturers have released similar metal round platforms at the first time, but without electroplating, the effect is not as good as ours."
"In that case, give the design department some time and continue to produce metal display stands for three days."
"Factory Director, should we raise the price of the metal display stands?"
"Not for now... However, our products are selling so well, and foreign trade merchants, distributors, and retailers have made so much profit. They should give some back."
"What do you mean?"
"Tomorrow is Old Xu's 40th birthday."
"..."
"Cough, these red envelopes can be considered as 'unexpected income' and need to be taxed, so it's legal."
"..."
"Anyway, let's talk about something important."
Xu Fei looked around at the assembled management team, "Today, the Development and Reform Commission leaders called and suggested that our company contract the ancient city secondary vocational school. After careful consideration and consultation with the headquarters, I have decided to invest in a higher vocational school.The nature of the school should be directly under the Development and Reform Commission, different from the centralized teaching of universities. Instead, it adopts a teaching model of one-to-one, one-to-two, or at most one-to-five, and signs a targeted training agreement with students for at least 6 years.
The general idea is that in the future, all management and technical positions will have 2 to 5 apprentices who pay tuition fees, and these tuition fees will be distributed to corresponding employees in the form of bonuses based on the apprentices' weekly assessment results.
In addition, every employee must obtain a teaching qualification certificate. For those who have already obtained a teaching qualification certificate or have a professional rank, the company will issue TEP professional certification and provide salary subsidies based on professional level.
Do you have any questions?"
"Factory Director, which positions are eligible to take apprentices?"
"Basically, all existing positions."
"Even the cleaning auntie?" Tang Mo exclaimed in surprise.
"What are you talking about? The aunties will be administrative assistants in the future."
"..."
"Our cleaning aunties do more than just cleaning toilets. They are also responsible for checking employee appearance, supervising hygiene in various areas, maintaining the greenery inside the factory, hanging banners and lanterns during festivals, and occasionally distributing company rules and culture manuals with a small loudspeaker. If the cafeteria prepares delicious food one day, they will inform the workshops and offices in advance. Think about it, isn't this administrative work?"
"That makes sense!" Many executives nodded in agreement.
"We also need a group of teachers who understand the textbooks to purchase a batch of textbooks according to the corresponding specialties of the positions. Fortunately, we have contracted Gu Cheng Secondary Vocational School. The principal and some teachers will go there first to stabilize the situation and take care of the textbooks. When the higher vocational education is approved, we will have a secondary vocational school campus, relevant teachers, and sufficient funds. Things will go smoothly."
The principal pondered and said, "Factory Director, how should we arrange the majors related to industry?"
Tang Mo's design company is only responsible for the appearance of the three countries' machinery.
As for the transmission form, structure and function, and structure and materials, they have always been handled by Da Ma. Later, as the number of engineers increased, an industrial design company was established.
However, Xu Fei can complete industrial work in the field and the basic production line with the help of the computer. The 20 engineers belonging to the toy factory, who were originally responsible for laying cables, are now assigned to guard the gate.
In retrospect, it was really unfair.
After all, engineering involves both mechanical and construction skills, which are equivalent to two major categories.
"They will also obtain teaching qualification certificates and be included in the management system of higher vocational colleges in the future. This also applies to power plants, large swamps, and Old Xu's construction engineering company."
"That's great."
The principal couldn't help but smile and said, "In this way, our higher vocational college can apply for at least two key disciplines."
"What are the benefits?"
"There must be benefits. To apply for a bachelor's degree, a master's degree, or even a key university, you need key disciplines."
"A bachelor's degree takes four years, and a master's degree... how many years?"
"At least three years. If the thesis is always rejected, then I don't know."
"Three plus four equals seven years, plus a master's and a doctorate... key disciplines are a good thing!"
The others didn't understand and didn't know how to respond.
We are "pawread.com", find us on google.
Xu Fei summoned a translucent panel and saw the financial resources possessed by "Spy". He wanted to ask if it belonged to a key discipline, but considering that "Spy" didn't have an identity, he turned to look at "Seal Team".
Unfortunately, driving skills belong to driving schools, and combat skills cannot be shown.
What's left...
The maintenance workshop?
"Cough, you have been working here for a while, listening to TEP every day. I think there are some things that you should know."
Xu Fei walked to the blackboard and erased the many formulas written by some department during a meeting. "First of all, among the companies under TEP Holdings, there is one called North American Iron Tower, which is mainly responsible for the construction of electrical towers, communication towers, and other iron towers. Its total assets amount to 800 million Franklin. You can imagine, if even a holding company has billions of RMB in assets, how can TEP be small? But before you joined the toy factory, have you heard of TEP?"
"No." This is also the most confusing part for everyone. Now that they heard the Factory Director talk about it, they all perked up their ears.
"Mainly, TEP belongs to a hidden investment group... sigh, if I explain it in too much detail, it won't be good for you. After all, the more you know, the more... Anyway, let me put it simply, you won't understand."
"..."
"Let me put it this way, perhaps some of you have noticed that some time ago, a car took away a container of materials. Do you know what it was?"
"Technical data!" The principal was the first to speak.
"Yes, advanced diesel engine technology!"
Xu Fei nodded, "Do you know who bought it? China's military!"
"???"
"And this diesel engine is actually for light tanks."
"Hiss..."
"Now, do you all understand the strength of TEP?"
"...""The overseas situation is chaotic, and there are so many TEP industries. Protective measures must be set up, so we have established our own armed forces. However, rest assured, these armed forces will definitely abide by China's laws when they come to our country. So... does tank maintenance count as a key discipline?"
"???"
"There's no problem if Chinese weapons buy our engines, let alone repairing a tank."
The principal thought seriously, "It should be possible to package it as a specialty."
"What's the difference from a key discipline?"
"If done well, it's unique and beneficial for enrollment and employment. If done poorly, it's just a slogan and serves no purpose."
"In that case, report these specialties to the Development and Reform leaders."
"Okay, but there are no related textbooks for these specialties, and our faculty team doesn't know how to compile lecture notes."
"I'll arrange for someone to compile them. Any other issues?"
"None."
………………
The next day.
After the principal took away some of the teachers, the office building became much quieter.
It seemed that only the design company and the computer technology company were left, tapping away at their keyboards.
After Xu Fei arrived at work, he strolled to the production workshop.
As the twelfth lunar month approached, the temperature was getting lower and lower. Because the factory was too large, heating it had little effect. To keep warm, all the employees wore cotton gloves, which greatly reduced their work efficiency.
Fortunately, once the thermal power plant was built, both the Large Swamps Toy Factory and the Yellow Mud Hillock Toy Factory would have heating.
"I just hope it will be effective by then."
Xu Fei found an empty workshop, summoned a semi-transparent page, and planned to continue making handmade small horns. However, he was surprised to find that in the small map he had explored, all his personnel in North America, except for the two spies in Bain and the engineer left in Jamaica, were all gathered together.
And the building currently displayed was the Boston Police Station.
"Did the headquarters get raided just after I boasted about TEP yesterday?"
