It was not enough to hit the housing prices of first-tier cities!
In order to save expenses and increase corporate profits, Xing Hai Technologies did another bold thing — a major reform of wages and benefits.
For employees working in Technology City No. 1, their wages were adjusted and their benefits changed dramatically.
Any employee whose family moved to the Technology City had their wages reduced by 90%, with a maximum of 10%.
For those employees who were "semi-migrating," their wages were reduced by at least 50%, and their disposable income was halved compared to before.
Only the "freelance" employees received no change in their income and did not make any adjustments.
"90% or even half less than before. If it were me, I would resign immediately and find another job."
"They're digging their own graves. Is Xing Hai Technologies crazy? The ugly face of a capitalist has been revealed too quickly. Isn't it too ugly?"
"Those employees have already obeyed the arrangement and gone to work in the desert thousands of kilometers away. It's fine if they don't increase their wages, but they actually cut their wages. Do they have to be so crazy?"
"Burning the bridge after crossing the river, killing the donkey when it's no longer millstone! I feel sad for those employees. "
This was the first reaction of ordinary people to Xing Hai Technologies' drastic reduction in wages.
But a few days later.
After the introduction of Xing Hai Technologies' welfare policy.
Only then did everyone come to a sudden realization. They were dumbfounded and in disbelief.
The welfare system of Xing Hai Technologies was beyond everyone's imagination.
This was especially true for the Xing Hai employees and their families who had moved to "Technology City No. 1." The benefits that they could enjoy were stunning.
First of all, it was free.
All goods in Technology City No. 1 were free.
Including grain, oil, rice, flour, fruits, vegetables, all kinds of poultry, eggs, river fish, seafood, all kinds of dairy products, dried fruits, snacks, and so on. All food was free.
Houses were allocated and renovated for free.
Each family was allocated at least one car. If there was insufficient space, they could apply for one temporarily. It was also free.
In addition, the clothes they wore and all kinds of daily necessities that they usually used were free to use.
There were also educational services, medical services, and cultural and entertainment services. Undoubtedly, they were also free.
In short, as long as you moved to Technology City No. 1, your food, clothing, and housing in this city were completely free.
The company took care of everything for them.
There was almost no need for any expenses.
Even if the salary was cut by 90%, it had no impact on the quality of life.
In the northwest desert, Xing Hai Technologies had built a city of "everything is free."
While the vast number of netizens were shocked, they also expressed their views.
"Is this the embryonic form of the future socialism? Food, shelter, and daily necessities are all free of charge. Xing Hai Technologies is the first to enter this stage? "
"I still remember that the junior high school books said that we should enter the advanced stage of socialism in 20X0 and build a beautiful common society. This sentence can no longer be found in the books. It's unlikely to become a reality. I didn't expect Xing Hai Technologies to take this step and set a demonstration."
"We have misunderstood Xing Hai Technologies. Xing Hai Technologies is not exploiting its employees. It is providing better treatment!"
"I'm drooling with envy. A city where everything is free. If only I could get in."
However, there were also many pessimistic voices.
"They're simply messing around. They're going back to the old days when everyone was fed from the same big pot. Everything was free, so they should just enjoy it with all their might and slack off. Hundreds of thousands of mouths are eating and using as much as they can, but they don't put much effort into their work. No matter how rich Xing Hai Technologies is, it will go bankrupt at the speed of light."
"In fact, many people in history have tried this form of utopian social experiment, but they all ended in failure. By doing this, Xing Hai Technologies is killing people's enthusiasm and breeding laziness and greed. I dare to guarantee that this will 100% end in failure."
"Xing Hai Technologies is too naive. How dare they test human nature? The starting point may be good, but it can only last for a year at most. "
But some people saw the devil in the details and put forward a different point of view.
"Most people think that Xing Hai Technologies will suffer a loss. They are very stupid and naive, but I don't think so. Xing Hai Technologies must have a shrewd calculation."
"Let me roughly calculate for you."
"At present, the salary level of Xing Hai Technologies' employees is the highest in the country. Taking into account bonuses and various benefits, the median average monthly income per person is about 120,000. Including other expenses such as taxes, Xing Hai Technologies' expenditure on each employee should be about 150,000."
"Multiplied by 100,000 employees and multiplied by 12 months a year, the annual human cost is 180 billion."
"The total number of employees of Xing Hai Technologies has reached 300,000, so the annual expenditure on personnel is about 500 billion. This has devoured a lot of Xing Hai Technologies' profits."
"How big is the purchasing power of 500 billion?"
"This is about equal to the construction cost of 1 million robust houses, or 2 million electric cars with medium configurations, or the per capita living expenses of 5 million middle-class people. This should have been shared among 300,000 people."
"Now, Xing Hai Technologies can use this 500 billion to build 300,000 houses and buy 300,000 cars in the northwest desert. According to the standard of living of the middle-class, it will provide high-quality living services for 300,000 people. The annual expenditure will only be 525 billion."
"There is not much difference between the two."
"But in fact, as long as we build a house for each employee and give each employee a car, we can spend 225 billion less in the second year. This is a net saving of 200 billion."
"In addition, we don't need to spend 300 billion on living expenses. Xing Hai Technologies, which has contracted a large area of land, can grow fruits and vegetables that can meet the needs of at least millions of people. We can raise tens of millions of chickens, ducks, pigs, cows, and sheep. Most of the electricity is generated by ourselves, and the water is pumped from Lake Baikal. All of these are extremely cheap."
"The cost of living in all aspects can be saved by at least hundreds of billions."
"Adding the previous 200 billion, it is a total of 300 billion!"
"We have saved 300 billion in annual costs, and all of it has become a net profit for the company!"
"If it were me, I would also be willing to build a completely free city for my employees."
"As for the additional 300 billion in profits of Xing Hai Technologies, it is the rent lost by landlords in first-tier cities and the high cost of living in first-tier cities. More importantly, after the employees' wages are cut by 90% or even half, the taxes they pay are also greatly reduced. They don't even have to pay a penny for insurance and housing funds."
"And because everything in 'Technology City No. 1' is free with zero value, the business tax, consumption tax, property tax, and the like are also all zero."
"So, with this calculation, everyone should be clear at a glance what the purpose of Xing Hai Technologies is and how much money they are saving."
"Everyone should know in their hearts whether Xing Hai Technologies is making a profit or a loss.
In short, if it were me, I would also be willing to build a few free cities. "
"Wow …"
As soon as this analysis article came out, everyone's eyes widened. A word emerged from the bottom of their hearts: going against the natural order.
Xing Hai Technologies wanted to go against the natural order!
