Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Wu Bin looked expectant as he read these comments.

However, the last comment caught his attention.

That was because the angle of this comment was different from other negative comments. What’s more, the popularity of the discussion was not low!

The story of ‘Zi Gong Ransoming Someone’ seemed to have the intention of killing people.

Wu Bin clicked on it immediately to check the details.

“Of course, it’s a good thing to give benefits to our employees and take care of the employment opportunities of the disadvantaged. However, many things have to be looked at from two angles. There are many situations where good intentions are bad!”

“On one hand, if the benefits are too good, it’s easy to raise lazy people. We can confirm that these three types of people are basically aiming for high benefits. Can they still have the spirit of fighting? Employee benefits are also part of the cost of the company. If the company doesn’t control the cost and distributes benefits every day, the employees would be happy, but how many days would the company live? Once the company closes down, these employees would lose their jobs and even lose their basic salary. Isn’t that putting the cart before the horse?”

“Of course, I’m not saying that Tengda will collapse because of such benefits. After all, Tengda is already a giant company. However, what about other small companies?”

“Everyone knows about the story of Zi Gong Ransoming Someone. Objectively speaking, Tengda’s actions would form a moral abduction. Everyone would use this standard to request other companies. It seems like if other companies don’t do that, they would be the evil sweatshops.”

“However, not every company has conditions like Tengda’s! Many small companies are always on the brink of bankruptcy. It’s also common for some people to leave after taking maternity leave. If these small companies are forced by the huge pressure of public opinion to increase benefits, causing their costs to increase suddenly and the company to go bankrupt, wouldn’t the final benefits be damaged by the employees of the company?”

“Tengda’s benefits are good, but many people cannot enter Tengda at all. They can only work in small companies. If these small companies fall, they might lose their jobs. Who will consider their livelihoods?”

“That’s why I think Tengda’s behavior is not appropriate. It set up its own persona and earned its reputation. However, it did not care about the lives of other small companies at all and ignored the living conditions of these small companies. Instead, it might cause greater harm!”

“I still hope that everyone can view this matter rationally. Don’t do the moral abduction method to give small companies and ordinary workers a way out!”

Wu Bin could not help but feel worried.

He had to admit that these comments were quite confusing.

These companies were not stupid now. They could not possibly brazenly say that they were not giving benefits to their employees. Otherwise, they would definitely be scolded to death.

However, they could not remain indifferent seeing how popular Tengda’s special recruitment exam was this time. That was because the more popular this matter was, the greater the impact they would naturally be. In the future, it would be harder to be muddled whether it was new or old employees!

At that time, their best strategy would be to ‘act pitiful’.

It was not easy to talk about the company and the boss. The boss was exploited by the ink employees. The boss was a disadvantaged group. He had to pay for the meals of the entire company. He was working hard and earnestly every day. Everyone would lose their jobs if the company collapsed. Thus, he hoped that everyone would understand and endure some dissatisfaction. He might even voluntarily reduce his salary and suffer with the company…

He had to admit that this argument was a little confusing for many inexperienced people.

Wu Bin was very worried that such twisted logic would affect public opinion.

However, Wu Bin continued reading and realized that he was wrong.

The popularity of this post was not because many people agreed, but because it was criticized!

Obviously, netizens were getting smarter and smarter. They were not so easily hoodwinked.

These negative comments about Tengda’s special recruitment exam came quickly, but they slapped their faces even faster!

“What a bunch of nonsense! Welfare and fighting spirit are not directly related! Some people think that benefits will destroy people’s fighting spirit, while others say that benefits will stimulate people’s fighting spirit. Is that destruction or stimulation? I think the key is what you think of human nature. If you think that most people’s nature is lazy, benefits will destroy people’s fighting spirit; if you think that human nature is to fight and advance, benefits will stimulate people’s fighting spirit.”

“In this world, other places are hard to say. In our country, there are still many people who are down-to-earth and do things. There is no doubt about that!”

“Would you mind giving me your house and savings if you say that benefits will destroy your fighting spirit? The liberal living conditions have made you lose your fighting spirit. Give them all to me. That will definitely stimulate your fighting spirit and you will reach the peak of life in minutes!”

“Tengda set up a character setting? Don’t use words randomly. If doing a good deed is called setting up a character setting, I hope that this kind of setting up a character setting would be better. Even if some people publicize it after doing charity, it would be better than not doing charity at all, right? If setting up a character setting is something that doesn’t mean what it says, it would collapse. However, when has Tengda ever done something that doesn’t mean what it says?”

“You don’t have to worry about Tengda and Boss Pei. If Boss Pei only had IQ and EQ like you, Tengda would have closed down long ago.”

“It’s ridiculous to worry about small companies. If a company doesn’t understand innovation, innovation technology, pursuit of industry trends, doesn’t understand how to motivate employees, and only relies on employee benefits to reduce costs to maintain the survival of the company, I think it’s better for such a company to collapse. What’s the point of the existence of such a company?”

“That’s right. Are you worried for the boss of a small company? Did he worry for you when he was driving a sports car in a villa? No matter how small the boss of a company is, the money he earned is unimaginable for you workers. Why are you worried for him? Are you worthy?”

“To be honest, if there were really small company bosses who went through hardships with their employees, the employees would naturally be willing to give up on the benefits and fight with them. However, how many of such bosses are there? Most of them are stupid and stingy. The employees would not find reasons from themselves when they ran away. They would first complain that the employees could not suffer? Pfft!”

“A good boss who is truly considerate towards his employees would not ask why his employees are so unreasonable. On the contrary, most of the bosses who complain about their employees are scumbags who don’t even know themselves!”

“That’s right. Didn’t Tengda also develop from a small company? The benefits of Tengda were already very good when it was a small company. Why didn’t the employees eat the benefits and become a group of lazy people? Instead, they were all working hard and growing rapidly?”

“Why is Tengda’s behavior moral? They even said that Tengda is standing on the moral high ground? I’m sorry, I think Tengda is on the moral high ground no matter how I look at it!”

“Perhaps this abnormality is too common and too common. Everyone is used to it. Tengda stood up and took the initiative to do good things, wanting things to return to the right track. There are actually people who are not used to it? Really see it in life!”

“Why do so many people feel that it’s not easy for the company? Let’s not talk about anything else. If the boss were to take out half of his annual salary to distribute to all the employees, the employees would definitely be willing to work hard for him. Would the boss be willing? Since he’s not willing, don’t say that it’s not easy. Since everyone is purely hiring and being hired, don’t emphasize that it’s not easy for yourself. It’s not easy for the boss. Could it be very easy to hit the workers?”

“Back then, when they were in the industry, many bosses were completely pigs on the streets. They were strong and could improve no matter how they did. Later, when the economy was slightly lower and the wind stopped, these people’s true colors were revealed. The key was that they still felt good about themselves. Wasn’t it my leader who succeeded back then? Why not now? You employees must not do well! Reducing benefits, reducing costs, strengthening examinations, ideological education… What happened next? Then, the company collapsed! Why did the company collapse? Was it because of the employees? Obviously, it was because of the useless boss!”

“Indeed, I hope that the boss and the workers can be more self-aware and not kidnap each other! Don’t speak up for the boss if you hit the workers. Think about the rights and benefits that the law gives you first!”

“That’s right. The unscrupulous boss doesn’t have to spend so much effort to bluff and hit workers. If you have the time, think about how to do more practical things and open the company. To put it bluntly, true capitalists are going to develop overseas markets and earn the money of other countries. What kind of capitalist are you if you keep squeezing the people of your own country? At most, you’ll be bought by the officials of the old society!”

Those who posted similar comments were scolded bloody by the netizens!

These comments were more civilized. Some people started the simplest of curses.

Wu Bin could not help but feel emotional. The eyes of the masses were sharp. It looked like the IQ of the masses had improved overall. It was getting harder to bluff them.

Many people might say that they would only talk online. What impact would it have on things?

However, moving his mouth was often the first step to solving the problem.

If no one thought that there was a problem with this matter, it would never be solved. What’s more, it would become worse. If everyone thought that there was a problem with this matter, even if there seemed to be no change in the short term, the solution would slowly be promoted.

Now that he thought about it, Wu Bin felt that he had obviously been too small-minded.

Indeed, this recruitment might not recruit particularly outstanding people in the short term. However, in the long term, as this special recruitment exam became more and more famous, there would naturally be more and more outstanding talents!

For Tengda, the final outcome of the two recruitment drives would not differ much.

The greatest meaning of this special recruitment exam was not only to show everyone the Tengda spirit and attract more talents, but also to change the concept of the entire society so that everyone could understand that it was only natural to pursue better living conditions and benefits, reject unreasonable overtime and the so-called ‘fighting spirit’ to be brainwashed!

Struggle was right, of course, but there were different types of people to work towards.

It was wise to fight for himself, but stupid to fight for his boss.

Trash companies that squeezed their employees without any bottom line had all closed down. The market would not disappear, and their work opportunities would not be cleared. The demand was there. Naturally, more companies that were willing to give their employees benefits and could fight their way out of the harsh environment would appear and occupy this market again to provide these work opportunities for their employees.

If Tengda was working with other companies and constantly pushing Tengda’s working method to influence these companies from within, then this special recruitment exam was to pressure other companies from outside by guiding all the workers!

The two different routes were different when facing different companies. However, the final outcome would probably be the same.

Perhaps this process would be very long and the progress would be very slow.. However, as long as he persevered, he would gradually improve.
