"Brother, Ma Yunfeng from the shipping industry came to my office today and said that Island Airways, which had just taken over the airline, was planning to organize trouble."
After dinner, the eldest brother Yichen took his younger brothers and sisters to play in the playground outside, while Li Heng, the two ladies and Zhao Mingxia strolled in the back garden.
"Trouble? What's the trouble? Who organized it?"
Ever since it took over more than 10% of the shares of Hong Kong Island Airlines from the Shi Ya family, Huasheng has not stopped its acquisitions in the past three years, and finally completed its absolute acquisition of this airline in April this year.
Holding and placing it under Huasheng Shipping, it is currently in the integration stage.
"Ma Yunfeng said that it should be organized by the flight attendants union. There are two demands. One is for a salary increase, and the other is for refusing to learn Mandarin. If they cannot reach an agreement, they will organize all flight attendants in the airline to temporarily stop working."
Huasheng’s employees must be able to speak Mandarin. This has not changed in the past twenty years. It is also specifically stated in the recruitment brochure when recruiting. The Hong Kong government also turns a blind eye to this matter, but if
If this matter gets too big, the Hong Kong government and the Governor will definitely take action.
"In other words, all the flight attendants organized by the union want a salary increase, but they are unwilling to learn Mandarin, otherwise they will stop working. Is this what you mean?"
"I'm not saying I won't do it, I just want to stop work until the matter is resolved."
"What's the difference between this and quitting?" Li Heng sneered, then thought about it and asked, "Yunfeng didn't say when the negotiations would start?"
"Tomorrow at two o'clock in the afternoon, in the small conference room on the shipping side, the head of the union and the flight attendant representatives will be present."
"What do you think?"
"I am not prepared to agree to either of the two requests they made." Fang Xiaoya shook her head very simply.
"To put it bluntly, they are just waiters. The nature of their work is no different from that of waiters in a hotel. It's just that the service location is different. Why do their wages have to be so high? As for speaking Mandarin, haha, as a Chinese
People can’t even speak their own language, so I don’t know where they got such big faces and the nerve to make demands of me.”
"What does Yunfeng mean by coming to see you today? Just to inform you, or does he have any ideas?"
Li Heng did not express his position on what Fang Xiaoya said, and asked about Ma Yunfeng's attitude instead.
"His thoughts are basically the same as mine. He came to see me today just to discuss whether we can advance our plan."
In fact, Huasheng has long planned to engage in passenger transportation, not only passenger transportation by plane, but also ocean passenger transportation by ship.
The acquisition of Hong Kong Island Airlines is just in time. Otherwise, if things continue as normal, they will establish their own airline by the end of this year at the latest.
The aircraft are all ready, including the 747 and Airbus A300, which are much better than the several aircraft currently being flown by Island Air.
The most important thing is that the flight attendants and crew members have also been trained. In other words, those flight attendants who are currently preparing to stop work under the organization of the union. If they plan to use this to blackmail Washington, I'm sorry, their idea will fail.
Already.
Even without these preparations in advance, the worst thing is just to stop production and lose some money. Huasheng really doesn't care about this little money. Compared with the money thrown away by several laboratories in the semiconductor factory every year, the money spent on acquiring airlines is really just a drop in the bucket.
That's all.
Li Heng nodded: "Okay, I'll go over and have a look tomorrow afternoon."
!!!
As soon as he said this, Fang Xiaoya, Yirou and Zhao Mingxia all turned their heads and looked over.
Good guy, is this man planning to go out for a walk? He hasn't left this house for almost a month, right? He just needs to stay at home for confinement.
"Are you going?" the three women called out in unison.
"What's the problem? I can't come over and take a look?"
"No, no, no, of course you can go." Fang Xiaoya shook her head quickly. She was worried that if she continued like this, she would crush her man at home. Now that she heard that he planned to go out for a walk, she couldn't help but wish for him.
How could it be stopped?
Blackmail?
Li Heng smiled coldly in his heart. Anyone who dared to threaten him would not even be able to grow grass on their graves.
He bets that there must be support from a previous airline shareholder behind this incident.
He felt unhappy after being struck out by Washington, and he just wanted to take this opportunity to make trouble. I just don't know if he was mentally prepared to be bankrupted by Washington.
There is also the head of the union. If this time the negotiation is just for a wage increase, Li Heng will never be angry. This is a reasonable demand. Everyone wants high wages. Flight attendants are also human beings, and they are still a group of young girls. They often
The cost of flying abroad is much higher than that of ordinary people, and it is a normal demand to get a higher salary.
But he absolutely cannot bear to refuse to learn Mandarin. If all flight attendants think this way, then it is not impossible to replace them all. As for whether there will be a shortage of people, haha, how is it possible? They don’t want to do it.
, there are more people willing to do it.
There are so many companies under Huasheng's name that recruit every year, and this condition has always existed. I have never seen anyone sign up.
In the future, whether it is opening a route to that place or investing in building a factory and acquiring land in the past, it is necessary to learn Mandarin, otherwise communication will be troublesome in the future.
The matter was settled like this, and the chat content of the three women turned to Yitong. Getting engaged was a novelty for them, who had never experienced anything like this before.
This kind of engagement is not just talk, it requires a serious process. Not to mention Fang Xiaoya and Yirou, even Zhao Mingxia doesn't understand this very well. The three of them chatted for a long time but nothing came out of it.
I can only go back and find someone for a good consultation. No matter what happens, I can't lose the Li family's face.
The He family made the request first, but when going through the procedure, the bride's family must not come over. They had to take the initiative, otherwise outsiders would think that the He family was recruiting a son-in-law.
Li Heng did not participate, just strolling casually aside, with a big black dog following his legs.
It is said to be a black dog, but in fact it is not pure. There is a streak of yellow hair on the top of its head, which looks like lightning. That is the name of this dog.
It is Xiao Hei's grandson. He is only two years old this year. He is tall and smart since he was a child. When he was born, Li Heng fell in love with him at first sight. Since then, he has lived the life of his grandfather. He has been able to
Free access to the main house.
Every child also has his or her own guardian dog, which is to teach them to be responsible from an early age. If you choose a puppy as a companion, you must raise them responsibly, including shoveling poop for them.
Daily work for children, of course, the youngest Yicheng is not able to do it yet.
