Chapter 34: Bloating and Emergence

Not to mention the grocery store owner Tyson's comments based on his shallow knowledge, Nick returned to the office, hung up his wet jacket, and called the long-distance phone number to China.

Although due to the importance of Wanhu China, with the approval of the state, the local telecommunications bureau has specially opened a foreign dedicated line for Wanhu China, which can save a lot of time for transfer.

However, the phone calls from the United States still have to wait for at least half an hour, and only the phone calls from Japan can be connected within ten minutes.

However, people of this era are quite satisfied with this. You should know that it is common to wait for six hours and half a day when you call the overseas phone.

Nick didn't wait by the phone. He sat next to the phone, holding a pen in his hand and writing several plans on paper.

The first plan is the plan to replace a new phone proposed by Boss Tyson. This plan is indeed conscientious and a little stupid. Doing so will definitely play a good role in the corporate image and will have a very good impact on the long term.

However, this is too harmful to short-term interests.

Nick is not afraid of changing the machine, and the parts they replaced cannot be reused, but he is deeply afraid of the cost of logistics.

Although bulk shipping is much cheaper than train transportation, recycling from small shops is extremely expensive.

In the words of later generations, the last mile of express delivery is very expensive.

If China had not had cheap labor and dense population, China's express delivery industry would not have been so cheap and developed so well.

I'm afraid it's not like the United States, the express delivery costs are often more expensive than the product itself.

You should know that in recent years, mail orders in the United States have become less and less expensive than in the early years, the relatively low-priced products cannot cover the increasing postage.

It is better to go to the supermarket to buy mail orders at a supermarket with more and more complete varieties and more reasonable prices.

The second plan...

The second solution is to postpone the launch of the new model Tetris handheld console.

This plan is not very clever, and it can even be said to be a thousand self-destruction.

Now, the advantages of Wanhu in similar products are not only in legitimate use of Tetris, a big killer weapon, but also in the technological leadership.

If the Tetris handheld console with characteristics is postponed, although it will not offend players who already have the Tetris handheld console, it will also lose the most attractive features of new users. Silence slowly in the vast sea of ​​machines.

The third plan...

Nick couldn't think of a third plan anymore.

However, the first two solutions are almost unavailable, and the costs and losses are too high.

etc……

Nick suddenly thought of something!

It seems that the difference between the new model and the old model is not as big as imagined.

I remember when I was in the factory, I heard that there were interfaces that I could not use for the time being.

If so.

Can the parts that can be modified be individually made into a small package and delivered to the store with the delivery mechanism?

Then upgrade the existing cube machine at a relatively reasonable price.

It's expensive labor in the United States...

etc!

There is another one!

Nick remembered that his car broke down. As long as the problem could be solved, his father would repair it himself. It seemed that the same was true for the Leading Home.

Since you do the repairs yourself to avoid expensive labor, why not sell the modification packages clearly with instructions and let players in need buy modifications on their own?

The more Nick thinks, the more reliable it feels. In this way, the complaints of old players about the rapid updates and iterations can be eliminated, and it will not cause too much financial pressure on ten thousand households.

It looks like a win-win situation, and it is a very good solution.

At this moment, the phone finally opened.

The operator in China opposite ten thousand households was a top student who knew foreign languages. He recorded Nick's words in the log, wrote down the translation below, and finally wrote his name and work number. He copied it again while handing it to the clerk beside him, asking him to forward it to the leader in charge of related matters.

Although the number of employees in tens of thousands of households increases, the company's system is gradually becoming regular.

For example, every overseas call to 10,000 Chinese households will be held, and there will be a dedicated person responsible for recording and archives for future inquiries.

Nick, who thought of a good idea, was excited to keep beating in the office... paced around. However, after saying a word, please wait, there was no sound. Nick, who knew that he was going to leave the program, had to wait patiently.

This is the bad side of formulating a complex system. The more steps you need to deal with, the slower the reaction.

Takahashi also feels quite a sense of crisis about this. Although there are less than 4,000 employees around the world now. More than 3,000 of them are in China.

However, Takahashi is already trying to find out whether it can alleviate the disease of a large company that is gradually showing signs.

Takahashi once thought that the system was rigid and the organization was bloated. He once naively thought that as long as privatization was privatized, all this would disappear.

However, only when he knew that he now owned his own company did he realize that the system was rigid and bloated institution was not a common problem of state-owned enterprises, but a common problem of large companies.

The so-called disease of large companies has been manifested to varying degrees in almost all large companies.

No matter how well the rules are formulated, the person who enforces the rules and regulations is still the one who has no loopholes. Sometimes even if you know there are loopholes, you cannot change the orders every day, and you can only add regulatory agencies.

However, regulators often become corrupt after a period of time, and regulators need regulators.

In this way, in this way, how can it be without being bloated?

And the system is rigid.

Nowadays, many things in thousands of households need to be signed at the same time to take effect if they want to execute them.

Maybe there will be an embarrassment in the future that hundreds of people will sign and one thing can be carried out.

Not to mention anything else, the time wasted in the signing process, and at least several months will be required, and the best opportunity will often be lost.

However, institutions cannot be reduced.

It's messy as soon as it is released.

Even if an employee has no distractions and has too much power in his hands, someone will make him feel distractions.

"Hello, the above has reported the situation you have reported to the Japan Headquarters. Please hang up the phone first and wait patiently for the instructions from the Japan Headquarters."

The operator's American accent specially trained did not warm Nick.

He could only put down the phone, but he didn't know when he would get a response from the Japanese headquarters.

Fortunately, Nick has experienced a lot and has polished his mind. He did not reply to the department without doing anything, but instead improved the third plan that he thought was the most feasible.

...

"President, this is the latest briefing of the China branch." After the secretary's sister said that, she placed the documents on Takahashi's desk.

Nowadays, there are many things happening in Wanhu. Takahashi is like an ancient emperor. The information he received is all second-hand news that has been passed by several times.

But there is nothing we can do about it. You may not be better than this by doing everything yourself. Just like a team leader and principal of a logistics team who will do everything yourself.

After reading the documents in his hand, Takahashi took the briefing in his hand and started browsing.

"The US branch applied to solve the model problem of the Tetris handheld machine?" Takahashi looked at the brief description of the problem and felt that the problem was really difficult. He picked up the phone and called the secretary to the secretary to get the phone number from the US branch.

After about twenty minutes, the phone was transferred from the secretary desk to Takahashi's office.
