Middle-level core employees like them usually did not sign a non-competition agreement.
The reason was simple: there were too many of them.
Non-competition agreements were not something that could be signed at will. Employees were not stupid. They would weigh the pros and cons when they were hired.
Signing a non-compete agreement meant that the difficulty of job-hopping in the future would be greatly increased, and it could even directly cut off the path of job-hopping. Therefore, unless it was a top company in the industry with excellent benefits and a salary that was hard to refuse, these people would choose to sign a non-compete agreement.
Shengyun Corporation would at most sign with the higher-ups. How could they take care of the middle-level and lower-level employees?
What's more, the middle-level employees might look important, but they were actually not that important.
That was because if only one or two middle-level employees left, they could choose people from the lower-level to replace them for a while. At the same time, they could recruit targeted employees. There would not be any big problems.
However, the problem now was that the middle-level employees were being poached in batches!
Generally speaking, such a situation was unlikely to happen because there was no reason for such a huge gap in demand in the market. There should not be a company that completely crushed the other companies in the field in terms of treatment and benefits.
Everyone had similar business models. Why could they push the cost of human resources so high?
However, such a situation had really happened now.
The reason behind this was not complicated.
Upwind Logistics was one of Tengda's businesses. It could lose money at will because Tengda Corporation continuously transfused it. However, Shengyun Corporation only had the express delivery business and no other business. If the express delivery business was not profitable, there was no need for the entire corporation to exist!
The consequences of the middle-level employees being poached in batches were, of course, very serious.
If there were one or two middle-level employees missing, they could transfer the lower-level employees to fill them. They could hire urgently.
However, with so many people missing, how could they fill them in a short time?
Of course, in theory, Shengyun Corporation could ask these employees to hand over their jobs. However, the problem was that the law stipulated that official employees could leave directly after 30 days of resignation without the approval of the employer.
Fill all the vacancies through recruitment within 30 days? That was obviously a very difficult thing to do.
Force them to stay? Ask the employees to hand over their jobs successfully before they could leave? Deduct their wages?
It might have been useful in the past, but now, these employees would probably be eager to apply for labor arbitration.
Nie Yunsheng even suspected that many employees who had not resigned were also trying to accumulate evidence and seek labor arbitration. That was because they could enter Tengda through the special recruitment examination after the arbitration was successful!
Nie Yunsheng slammed the table angrily. "Tengda Corporation is going too far!"
"I think Lu Mingliang must have been instructed by Boss Pei! Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to cooperate so well. The special recruitment examination, targeted recruitment, and the express delivery war were launched at the same time! "
"If a tiger doesn't show its might, it would really think that we're a sick cat!"
Li Meng couldn't help but shiver. From what he could remember, Nie Yun rarely got so angry.
This couldn't be blamed on Nie Yunsheng's poor self-restraint. This time, there were indeed many factors that came together. It was too infuriating!
First of all, Shengyun Express was the one who started the express delivery war. They were the ones who decided to cut ties with Upwind Logistics in second- and third-tier cities. That was why Upwind Logistics was so determined to retaliate.
He was the one who started the fight, but he was beaten up badly. This was indeed something that could be easily broken through.
Secondly, the turning point in the public opinion of this express delivery war was the debate that was broadcasted live. Nie Yunsheng had been refuted by Lu Mingliang on the spot and was rendered speechless. To Nie Yunsheng, this was, of course, an unacceptable and embarrassing matter.
As a result, every time he thought about this, he would feel terrible and extremely regretful.
These two things were his own fault. He couldn't push the blame away even if he wanted to. That made him feel terrible!
Finally, Upwind Logistics was being aggressive now. It seemed like it was going to wipe out Shengyun Corporation.
In the past, the battles between express delivery companies would stop when it was appropriate. After all, everyone's business model was similar. They might have some advantages in certain areas, but it would not look good if they really fell out with each other.
What's more, Shengyun Express had always dominated the market. Even if others wanted to fall out with it, they didn't have the right to do so.
Everyone exploited their couriers, and their service standards were similar. That way, they could maintain a comfortable profit margin for everyone. That way, they could earn money very comfortably.
However, now, Upwind Logistics did not care about military ethics. It seemed like it was going to reshuffle the entire express delivery industry and destroy their livelihood. How could Nie Yunsheng not be angry?
Li Meng probed, "Then … Boss Nie, what should we do?"
This question deflated Nie Yunsheng's spirits again.
There really wasn't a good solution …
The current situation was on Upwind Logistics' side, be it in terms of timing, geography, or people. On all the battlefields, Shengyun Express had been beaten to the point of looking for their teeth on the ground and retreating step by step. What could they do even if they were incompetent and furious?
Nie Yunsheng remained silent for a long time. "It's definitely not possible to rely on our company alone."
"Tengda Corporation has made enemies everywhere and affected the interests of various industries. We are the ones who have suffered the most, but the companies in other fields are also suffering!"
"It's definitely not possible to rely on our company alone. However, there's still hope if we can join forces with other companies."
"The more companies we join forces with, the greater the hope!"
"For example, Home Corporation, whose stock price has plummeted because of Sloth Apartments and Slow Movement Workspace, would definitely have the same request as us."
"It's not just in the delivery and rental industries. Tengda has made enemies in take-out, live-streaming, games, and movies. Tengda's enemies could be tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of people if we were to calculate their valuation! "
"Of course, it would be difficult for us to resist if Tengda could gather all the strength of all the departments to support Upwind Logistics now. However, if all the companies join forces to attack Tengda's various departments and make them unable to take care of themselves, the situation would naturally reverse!"
Li Meng was enlightened. "Boss Nie is wise!"
"However … it might be a little difficult to get these companies to lend a helping hand. After all, even though their respective interests have been affected by Tengda, they are not as desperate as us. Is it realistic to expect them to help? The chances of success don't seem to be high. "
Nie Yunsheng said firmly, "No, the chances are very high!"
"Lu Mingliang's words in the live-stream can actually be seen as a declaration of war against most of the giant companies in the country. The business model that Shengyun Corporation has adopted is also the model that many large companies in the country, including new companies that have obtained large amounts of financing in their infancy. "
"Tengda's goal is to completely dismantle this model. Naturally, it is declaring war on all companies of this type!"
"It might be difficult for these companies to join forces for other purposes. However, it is to protect their own interests now. There is no reason for these companies to remain indifferent!"
"As long as we can persuade Home Corporation and a few other giant companies to take the lead, some of the smaller companies would naturally join in under the push of some of the larger investment companies. Once the general trend appears, it would be extremely difficult to turn the situation around! "
"No matter how strong Boss Pei is, he is still human. Humans can never win against capital."
At that thought, Nie Yunsheng immediately stood up. "Regarding the resignation, we will do it officially. There is no need to deliberately stay or leave. Otherwise, we will create more negative effects for ourselves. Our main battlefield will not be here. It will be somewhere else. "
"I will make a trip to Home Corporation now!"

…
March 7th, Thursday …
Pei Qian was in his office. He looked at the thesis that he had just written and then thought about the new game project.
He had no clue at all!
At that moment, Pei Qian seemed to be looking left and right at a fork in the road. The left seemed to be blocked; the right seemed to be blocked as well!
This was quite unbearable.
The key was that both of these things were quite urgent.
The first draft of the thesis had to be submitted on April 10th. There was only one month left. Pei Qian's thesis was basically still in the embryonic stage of the idea.
As for the game project, he had to complete the general design concept draft this month. Otherwise, it would be a little tight considering the time needed to refine the design and production.
Although there was still more than half a year until the end of the year, the key was that Pei Qian wanted to make a big production this time. It would be best if he could get rid of Tengda Games and Shang Yang Games in one go.
It would be even better if he could get rid of Fei Huang Workspace at the same time.
If he let these two games departments each make a smaller game, he could guarantee that the development would be completed. However, the possibility of incurring losses would be greatly reduced. Even if they did incur losses, it would not be much. It would be a waste of ideas.
However, what should he do with such a huge investment in a triple-A game?
This matter really made him feel conflicted.
"Should I think about the thesis first or should I think about the game first?"
"Hmm … I have to make arrangements for the game by next Tuesday at the latest. Then, I will work hard on the thesis.
"But I have no clue about the game …"
Pei Qian felt quite hopeless.
At that moment, there was a knock on the door.
He looked up and saw that it was Wu Bin.
Wu Bin's face was full of smiles as he handed a report to Pei Qian. "Boss Pei, I'm here to report on the situation of the special recruitment examination. All in all, the response was very enthusiastic. It completely exceeded my expectations!
"Middle-level employees of many companies signed up enthusiastically. Some of them had beautiful resumes and excellent abilities. Some were even willing to take a pay cut to join us because they appreciated the working environment, atmosphere, development prospects, and other comprehensive benefits of our company!
"Although there were restrictions on the application requirements, the talents that were actually selected in the end were even stronger than the talents that were selected in the regular examination!
"Of course, this strength mainly refers to real ability. After all, the written test scores in the regular examination were very important. Some of the company's core employees could not compete with the written test scores of the student party. In the special recruitment examination, the overall written test scores were lower, but the practical ability had increased!
"The regular examination mainly recruited young people with potential, and the special recruitment examination recruited mature middle-level core employees. Both recruitment were done in parallel. Coupled with the targeted poaching of the various departments, Tengda's personnel structure was quickly adjusted in a very healthy manner!
"Everything went smoothly for the special recruitment examination this time. Boss Pei, your transformation plan was a huge success!
