Chapter 250: Planning Talent Reserve in Advance
After the design competition was successfully concluded,
Song Wenqing organized an important meeting with the leaders of Qingdao Publishing House.
The core topic of this meeting was to discuss the construction of the headquarters building of Qingdao Publishing House.
Today, Qingdao Publishing House is growing in size, with numerous departments and covering a wide range of areas.
Among them, there are the printing department, editorial department, toy department, storytelling department, the animation department which is being prepared to be established, and the newly established clothing design department.
With the continuous expansion of business and the continuous increase of departments, the existing office space has become stretched and unable to meet the growing demand.
Therefore, the convening of this meeting is urgent, and its purpose is to build the Qingdao Publishing House office building.
Jiang Weimin also actively put forward his own forward-looking suggestions.
Given that Qingdao Publishing House currently has sufficient funds, Jiang Weimin boldly proposed that a national landmark building should be designed and built.
A landmark building will become a symbol of Qingdao Publishing House’s brilliant achievements and will also be known to people across the country.
From now on, whenever the office building of Qingdao Publishing House is mentioned, people will naturally think of the achievements made by Qingdao Publishing House.
Jiang Weimin's proposal directly opened up everyone's mind and deeply shocked every leader present.
Originally, everyone just wanted to build a similar building that could meet current office needs.
However, Jiang Weimin's proposal made everyone start to re-examine this issue and think about how to make the headquarters building of Qingdao Publishing House an iconic and influential building.
Finally, after a heated discussion and in-depth thinking, everyone unanimously agreed with Jiang Weimin's opinion.
Today, under the influence of Jiang Weimin, Qingdao Publishing House's style of doing things is gradually inclined towards using money to pave the way.
It has to be said that Qingdao Publishing House is indeed very wealthy now. With its strong financial strength, it does not need to go to its superiors to coordinate resources.
Later, following Jiang Weimin's advice, the Beijing Design Institute was directly commissioned to design the nationally famous building for Qingdao Publishing House.
After the meeting, Jiang Weimin stayed to talk with Song Wenqing.
"Wei Min, can you still come back to attend the meeting to upgrade our Qingdao Publishing House to a department-level unit?"
Jiang Weimin thought for a moment and responded, "President, my studies and work are very heavy right now. I really can't spare the time, so I won't come back."
"Wei Min, you are a key and important person in the upgrade of our Qingdao Publishing House.
Provincial leaders will be present at the upgrading ceremony. Their main purpose is to meet you, the great contributor who has led Qingdao Publishing House to the world.
"President, please don't say that. Qingdao Publishing House's success in going global is mainly due to your good leadership.
As the saying goes, the speed of a train depends on the locomotive.
Without your foresight and wise decisions, Qingdao Publishing House would not have achieved such brilliant success today."
Song Wenqing waved his hand and responded, "Don't flatter me.
Without you, Qingdao Publishing House would be just an ordinary small publishing house.
Besides, you were not here when the provincial leaders came the last two times. This time, the upgrade of our publishing house is a big deal, so you must come."
"President, it's not good for me to always take leave from school. It will affect my academic progress and leave a bad impression on my teachers and classmates."
"If you feel uncomfortable asking for leave, for such an important matter, I will report it to the secretary of the Qingdao Municipal Party Committee and ask him to personally call your dean and ask for leave for you. That should be ok, right?"
Jiang Weimin waved his hands quickly and said anxiously: "No, President, this is too high-profile!
There's really no need to make such a big fuss. I'll try to participate."
"It's not about striving for it, it's about making sure of it!" Song Wenqing said in a firm tone.
"Okay, President, I will definitely come back!"
"By the way, Wei Min, do you have any new ideas for coming to me this time?"
Jiang Weimin said solemnly: "President, I still have to say that Qingdao Publishing House would not have developed to where it is today without you.
I feel that no other leader could support as many of my suggestions as you do.
It is under your leadership that we have the courage to experiment and innovate, and have achieved our current success.”
After listening to this, Song Wenqing smiled and said, "Okay, go ahead! What other good ideas do you have?"
"President, our group of college students are about to graduate, so we must make plans in advance!
These are all real talents!
They are full of vigor and vitality, have innovative thinking and solid professional knowledge, and are crucial to the future development of our publishing house."
Song Wenqing fell into deep thought after hearing this. After a moment, he asked, "Wei Min, do you mean to have more college students?"
"Yes, President. Not only should we ask for more, but we should also recruit talents precisely according to our needs.
For example, in our current field of metal toy development, we need people with professional design and engineering knowledge;
In the research of new materials, professionals with a background in materials science are needed.”
"Okay, I know about this. I'll arrange for someone to do it. Weimin, what kind of talents do you need? Tell me first!"
"Okay, I understand. I'll arrange for someone to do it. Weimin, what kind of talents do you need? Tell me first!"
“President, we now have so many devices, and we must have talents in equipment.
There are also talents in new toy materials. I know there seems to be a resin material.
It has strong plasticity and is a good material for making toys. It can replace wooden toys.
The research and development and application of this new material requires the participation of professional talents. Finally, talents in film and television production are needed.”
"I understand other talents, but as for the talent in film and television production, Wei Min, this is your new plan, right?" Song Wenqing narrowed his eyes slightly and asked thoughtfully.
"The president is wise!
President, you also know that we in Qingdao have now introduced two television production lines, one black and white and one color.
Now many wealthy families in big cities have televisions. In the future, television stations will surely be spread across the country just like radio stations.
President, you also know that 100 episodes of storytelling only sell for 500 yuan, but if it is made into a movie or TV series, one episode can sell for 1 yuan, which is no less than the profit from storytelling.
Moreover, we have many excellent stories that can be made into TV series, which will not only bring rich profits to the publishing house, but also further enhance the reputation and influence of our Qingdao Publishing House." Jiang Weimin passionately expounded his ideas.
"Wei Min, you have a sharp mind.
When I saw the TV production line we introduced in Qingdao, I immediately found so many development directions.
And you really spared no effort to promote comic strips!" Song Wenqing said to Jiang Weimin with admiration.
"I am doing this for the development of Qingdao Publishing House!
After all, our publishing house has so many excellent resources, we just need to make good use of them. "
"Okay, I promise to get you the talents you want!"
"Boss, you need two more photographers and directors.
I have a lot of plans, and they also involve export projects!"
When Song Wenqing heard about the export project, he was immediately delighted, his eyes flashing with excitement, and he couldn't wait to say, "Tell me more about it!"
