Chapter 525 Do you understand now?
Tang Mingzhu thought for a moment and said, "I can see the problem, but that doesn't mean I can solve it."
"Brother, the problem you mentioned is not something I am good at. I cannot give you a solution for now."
He glanced at Shen Qiansan and continued, "But I think that since Third Brother has decided to build a factory here, he must have had a plan in place."
Shen Qiansan smiled after hearing this, "Being able to see the problem is also a skill."
Although Tang Mingzhu raised the problem but was unable to solve it, Shen Qiansan did not look down on her for this.
After listening to her words, I appreciated her even more.
The saying that no one is perfect does not just refer to people's character, but also their talents.
A person's cognition, vision and ability are limited. It is impossible to understand everything and know everything.
Tang Mingzhu had been a journalist before. Journalists have keen insight and being able to identify problems is her specialty.
But building a factory is part of corporate management, and her identity as a reporter, her professional abilities and work experience have nothing to do with corporate management. It is normal that she does not know how to solve this problem.
But she did not shy away from saying that she was not good at this and that she could not provide a solution for the time being. That was a kind of honesty.
And honesty is a quality that is more rare than ability.
When it comes to employing people, there has always been a principle that is, those who are both virtuous and talented should be given important positions, those who are virtuous but not talented can be employed, and those who are talented but not virtuous should be used with caution or even not be employed at all.
Because the greater the talent of a person without morals, the greater the damage he will cause.
Unless you can figure it out, it's best not to try it.
Therefore, when hiring people, Shen Qiansan pays more attention to a person's character than his or her talent.
After all, talent can be cultivated, but character is something a person develops from childhood, and it is very difficult to change it after adulthood.
And there is a detail in Tang Mingzhu's words. What she said was not that she could not come up with a solution, but that she could not come up with a solution for the time being.
The addition of the word "temporarily" indicates that she was speaking based on her current situation. If she is given time, she can come up with a solution through study and hard work.
This is both a matter-of-fact attitude and a confidence that conveys her way of thinking.
She doesn't look at things with a static mindset, but rather with a dynamic perspective. This is an ability, and it is also what Shen Qiansan is satisfied with her for.
Glancing at Tang Mingzhu, Shen Qiansan nodded and said, "Yes, I do have a plan."
Tang Mingzhu immediately said, "Tell me about it so I can learn from it."
Shen Qiansan looked back at the street and said, "To get rich, you must first build roads. No matter what, build the roads first."
Tang Mingzhu agreed with this.
After the factory is built, whether it is the raw materials entering or the products being sold, they all need to be transported, and the travel of employees will also be affected, so the transportation problem must be solved.
If there is a beginning, there must be an end.
Tang Mingzhu asked: "Then what?"
"Then..." Shen Qiansan paused and said, "Develop the town."
Doing development?
Tang Mingzhu was stunned for a moment, not understanding what was going on, and asked, "What kind of development are you doing?"
Zhao Hanyu's heart was moved. He was excited when he heard the word "development". As long as it was developed by the third brother, it was a big deal.
Just look at Fanjia Village and Qiliping Village.
Moreover, Fanjia Village and Qiliping are just villages, while Baiguo Township is a township.
If it is developed, the scale of Baiguo Township will be much larger than that of Fanjia Village and Qiliping Village.
The development of Fanjia Village and Qiliping Village has been so shocking, how big will the scale of the development of Baiguo Township be?
Zhao Hanyu couldn't imagine it and was looking forward to it very much.
Shen Qiansan said: "Since we want to build a shoe capital, we must plan Baiguo Township around the theme of shoes. From the overall layout to the architectural form, everything should be designed towards the same theme."
"Of course, this is just a concept."
"In the specific operation, we must first solve the basic supporting work in Baiguo Township. Only when Baiguo Township has supporting facilities that are the same as or even better than those in the urban area can we attract people to work in Baiguo Township."
"This is called planting a phoenix tree to attract the phoenix."
Tang Mingzhu said in astonishment: "It would cost too much to build infrastructure before building a factory!"
The infrastructure of a city or a region not only includes meeting people's needs for food, clothing, housing, transportation, travel, shopping, and entertainment, but also involves transportation, communications, education, medical care, finance and other aspects.
Moreover, these are not the responsibilities of enterprises, as they are basically invested and built by the government.
Isn’t it because big cities have more complete infrastructure and people can live more conveniently and have a better life experience there that people prefer to live in big cities?
This is what is called development.
The reason why companies are willing to invest in developed areas is not only because the economies in developed areas are more prosperous, but also because developed areas have complete infrastructure, which is more beneficial for companies.
Tang Mingzhu really couldn't understand why Shen Qiansan chose Baiguo Township, a township with extremely poor infrastructure, to build a factory, and why he would spend such a huge investment to build the infrastructure of a township himself.
No matter how rich you are, you shouldn't spend it like this.
In response to Tang Mingzhu's doubts, Shen Qiansan smiled and said, "Let me tell you a story."
Why are you telling stories again?
Tang Mingzhu was even more confused, but still said, "Go ahead!"
I want to see what story Shen Qiansan can tell.
Zhao Hanyu was also very interested and listened with his ears perked up.
Shen Qiansan said: "There was a man who wanted to learn how to play golf, so he found a very famous golf coach and asked him how much it would cost to learn how to play golf.
The coach said five hundred yuan an hour.
The man thought the coach’s fee was a bit high, so he said he had played golf before and had a basic foundation, and asked how much the tuition per hour would be for someone with a foundation like him.
The coach asked the man to hit a few shots.
That guy did have some basic skills and didn't look like a novice. After the game, he confidently asked the coach, "How much is the tuition per hour for someone with basic skills like me to learn from you?"
The coach said one thousand yuan an hour.
The man was shocked and said that it only costs 500 yuan an hour for someone who doesn't know how to play golf to learn from you, so why should I, who have the basics, have to pay 1,000 yuan an hour to learn from you?
This is so unreasonable!
The coach said that it was because I had to correct your wrong movements first before I could teach you the correct movements. "
The story was so simple. After Shen Qiansan finished telling it, he asked Tang Mingzhu, "Do you understand now?"
"No!" Tang Mingzhu thought for a moment and shook her head.
Zhao Hanyu was also confused. He didn't understand what the story told by his third brother had to do with his plan to build a factory in Baiguo Township.
