Chapter 36: Poaching and AcquisitionWhen Xiang Tianshan heard that Guo Yang wanted to poach people from Huihuang Seed Industry, he immediately became excited. He still remembered that Huihuang’s general manager had said that he was old-fashioned and inflexible. If he leads his team to poach all the brilliant technical personnel... That feeling is exciting just thinking about it. Xiang Tianshan said confidently: "The salary has been in arrears for five months. Now is the time to recruit a new employee, especially since there are three technicians who were brought up by me when they first started working." "Then you can contact them, ask them to come to work at Alfalfa Agriculture, and increase their wages by... 30%?" "By the way, what is Huihuang's salary level?" Guo Yang asked hurriedly. "The starting salary for newly graduated technicians like them is 1200 yuan a month. After working for two and a half years, the salary increases by 300 yuan." Xiang Tianshan's tone sounded a little unnatural. My goodness, the salary level is so low! No wonder Xiang Tianshan was willing to reduce his salary from 8000 yuan per month to 5000 yuan per month when negotiating his own salary. It turns out that this old guy is also asking for a sky-high price, but he doesn't care. This is a time when we are short of manpower and generals. How can we quickly build a team without spending real money?
“What are their majors?” "The major of seed science and engineering is just a junior college agricultural school." Xiang Tianshan followed up. Guo Yang nodded. The major of seed science and engineering is a completely suitable career change, and most of the courses studied are on seed production, processing and storage, seed pathology, genetic breeding, etc. Unlike Lao Xiang, who switched from the major of soil and water conservation and desertification control. The technicians led by these three veterans have good theoretical knowledge and two and a half years of work experience. Guo Yang was thinking about how much salary he should give them. Lao Xiang’s salary package was a surprise, and although it was a bit high for Lao Xiang, it was not too outrageous. He does not plan to pay the technicians later too high a salary, mainly because he wants to leave more room for growth in the future. But then I thought that this is Jiuquan, an important seed base in the country. With the influx of many domestic and foreign companies, there may be a shortage of seed production technicians for a period of time in the future. After a moment, Guo Yang made a decision. "I offer them a monthly salary of 2200 yuan and ask them if they are willing to come, but they also have to work on the saline-alkali land improvement project first." Although a salary of 2200 yuan is not as high as the average salary in many coastal cities, it was definitely a high salary in Long Province in 2002. Moreover, this was just slightly lower than the salary Guo Yang gave to Zhang Wei, which made Zhang Wei, who had been paying attention to the conversation between the two, feel relieved. Xiang Tianshan smiled and said, "No problem, I can definitely bring the three of them here, they are all good guys." After solving the technician's problem, Guo Yang thought that Muhe Company was still an empty shell, and Huihuang Company happened to be in operational difficulties. If you don't take advantage of the situation now, what are you waiting for? "Old Xiang, who else in Huihuang Seed Industry has strong management capabilities? Do you have any recommendations?" Xiang Tianshan leaned his head on the back seat of the car, hesitated for a while before saying, "If we talk about the person with the best management ability in Huihuang, it must be their current general manager Wu Feng, followed by the production manager Duan Haitao, and then there are some experienced technical supervisors." "Besides that, the only person I'm a little familiar with is the financial manager, but don't even think about him, because he was sent by the headquarters."
Seeing his expression, Guo Yang asked curiously, "Are you having a problem with some of them?" "They always say I'm old-fashioned and pedantic. I just can't drink. What's wrong with me?" "And if you want to poach them, you might as well just buy out Brilliance." Hearing this, Guo Yang suddenly felt an explosion of inspiration. Acquisition? Later generations of multinational agricultural giants all expanded their businesses through gradual acquisitions. Not to mention the acquisition of Swiss Syngenta by Huaxia Chemical, Germany's Claas is also busy acquiring France's Renault to enter the tractor industry. He heard Yu Honghai talk about it in Germany some time ago, so why didn't he think of the acquisition? Moreover, if he wants to enter the agricultural machinery industry later, he can also adopt the acquisition method. He is worried that he is spending money too slowly. "What are the main assets of Huihuang Seed Industry now?" Guo Yang couldn't wait to inquire. Xiang Tianshan was stunned. He just said it casually, but why did he feel that Guo Yang took it seriously? But if the acquisition is successful, it seems to have no harm to Alfalfa? It just might not be very friendly to him. After thinking for a moment, Xiang Tianshan introduced Huihuang Seed Industry. Huihuang Seed Industry was established in 2000. Its investor is Dadi Investment Group from Rongcheng, Sichuan Province, a company with a real estate background. A total of 2000 million yuan was invested in Jiuquan to build nearly 20000 acres of seed fields, with an annual output of 1000 tons of various lawn and forage seeds. A forage and lawn grass seed cleaning and processing plant has been built, and a complete set of grass seed cleaning and processing equipment has been imported from Canada, with an annual cleaning and processing capacity of 5000 tons. In addition, Huihuang Seed Industry has many collaborations with scientific research institutions such as China Agricultural University and the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, and has also undertaken many national key research projects. The reason why Xiang Tianshan was able to serve as technical director was not only because he understood technology, but more because he could write project materials and apply for project funds from governments at all levels. But he just can't drink. A person who is responsible for applying for government projects, but cannot drink or is unwilling to drink, it is no wonder that the senior management of Huihuang Seed Industry would say that he is old-fashioned and inflexible. After listening to Xiang Tianshan's introduction, Guo Yang couldn't help but feel confused. “Is the debt of glory very high?” "The debt is indeed very high. I don't know exactly how much it is. The parent company should have made an additional investment before, but the funds applied for now have been stuck for several months. I think Dadi Group has also encountered some problems." Guo Yang gradually gained a general understanding of Huihuang Seed Industry, but this made his desire to acquire it even stronger. Such a grass seed company with complete facilities, abundant staff and good government relations seemed to be tailor-made for him. But an acquisition is not something that can be negotiated in a short period of time, and Dadi Group has spent so much effort to build up its entry into the grass seed industry, it is unlikely that it will withdraw so easily. Therefore, those who need to dig still have to dig. In this way, even if it cannot acquire Huihuang Seed Industry, Alfalfa can gradually build up its own technical team.
As for alfalfa's chief breeding expert, Guo Yang decided to take on the role himself. After all, he was a graduate student in genetic breeding in his previous life, and he also had the support of a seed store. He can definitely live up to the title of a breeding expert. …… In the evening, Shuangqiao Village. The afterglow of the setting sun shines through the gaps in the woods and falls into the courtyard. Village chief Xu Zonggang convened a meeting of all the villagers here. "Today, several bosses from outside came to our place to inspect the land lease. I'm sure everyone has seen or heard about it." "Just now, news came from the town, confirming that this is true." I'm shamelessly asking for your recommendation votes.
