Pei Qian blinked, confused.

‘What the hell?

A huge success?

What’s more, the new recruitment examinations had recruited a large number of mid-tier core members. Had they really optimized the company’s personnel structure?

There were even people who wanted to join Tengda even though their salaries were lowered?

That’s not right. This is different from what I expected!

At first, Pei Qian had thought that too many people had taken part in the recruitment examinations previously. They must have recruited top students, examiner gods, or those with real talents. Now that there was a sudden attack and a new recruitment exam, everyone would not have time to prepare.

They would have been able to recruit a few slackers, right?

Yet, the registration was so popular!

‘There were too many people, and the exam rules were very strict. Thus, those who were selected were still those with real talent.

After a moment of silence, Pei Qian asked, “Then… what do you think about the working attitude of this group of people?”

If they were here for benefits and their working attitude was very lazy, this was still acceptable.

Wu Bin raised his thumb. “They’re definitely all good. There’s nothing to say!”

“There are people who would rather reduce their salaries to join Tengda. It looks like they are here for benefits. However, two reasons fill them with motivation!”

“First of all, if they can be core members of other companies, they must be working hard. It was not easy for them to enter Tengda. This working habit will naturally continue.”

“Secondly, the reduction in working hours would force them to further increase their work efficiency and adapt to Tengda’s working model. These people took over their jobs much faster than graduates and newbies because of their rich work experience!”

“For example, the employees that Upwind Logistics poached from Shengyun Corporation are very familiar with their various jobs. They can shine after using the Tengda spirit to modify their thoughts. Our company’s expansion speed will definitely increase greatly!”

Pei Qian: “…”

Something was amiss. The more he heard, the more he felt that something was amiss!

Could it be that the recruitment examinations and targeted poaching had recruited another batch of hardworkers?

Hmm… Be more confident. Looking at the current situation, it was inevitable that more hardworkers would be recruited.

Where’s my Tengda Spirit test? Quick, pull it up!

No, no. One Tengda Spirit test alone was not enough. He had to think of other ways.

He could not allow the new batch of core members to ruin the atmosphere of the company!

Where should he start, then…?

Work flow!

If he limited the work flow, these people would not be able to do anything.

In fact, Pei Qian had already made many similar attempts before. For example, limiting the overtime limit, running around with the mouse after work, sending internal messages to encourage everyone to rest more and play more.

However, they did not seem to be systematic and could not be implemented in all the stages of work.

As he recruited more and more people, many old employees who were deeply influenced by other companies joined in. The pressure was greater. He had to think of other ways.

Suddenly, Pei Qian had an idea.

‘What was most closely related to the work flow? Of course, it was the company’s internal office chat software!

At the moment, Tengda was using a very mainstream office software called FXT. Compared to social chat software, this office software’s function was more inclined to communicate in work. It was more convenient to deal with work.

For example, it did not provide stealth options. One could see the state of the contact person online more clearly. One could see the company’s organization structure and find the corresponding personnel according to the department’s division. Everyone had their real names, and they could see all the

contact details, including their phone numbers and email boxes. They could be forced to pop up the window to remind them. They could send messages and clearly see if the other party had read this message.

It could be said that this software was mainly used to improve the efficiency of communication in work. There was basically no consideration for the privacy protection in regular social chat software or the experience of ordinary users.

After all, ordinary employees’ usage experience and work efficiency were often contradictory in work.

Even after this software was set up by the company on the intranet, technicians could check all chat records and monitor employees’ private complaints.

Of course, Tengda’s usage of this software was definitely different from other companies due to the company’s characteristics. For example, all departments tacitly assumed that windows could not be forced during non-working hours.

However, this was only a common rule after all. Not every department would strictly abide by it. What’s more, sometimes, during non-working hours, the person-in-charge of the department might use a phone call or other commonly used social chat software to send tasks. Not all of them might use FXT

to complete the work arrangements.

Pei Qian suddenly realized that he had to change this!

This office chat software obviously could not meet his requirements. It was completely incompatible with the Tengda spirit.

At the beginning, Tengda’s company structure was quite simple. FXT was just an internal chat software. Even if it did not fit the Tengda spirit, it would not have caused too serious an outcome.

However, the situation was different now. In the future, the number of employees in Tengda would skyrocket. If they could not plan the work flow and system as soon as possible, the struggling situation would definitely become more serious.

This matter could not be underestimated!

Tengda also had the ability to develop it. Such an internal chat software could be developed by TPDb’s website. What’s more, there was a ready-made structure that could be used. Ma Yiqun could just hand this job to him.

At that thought, Pei Qian immediately called Ma Yiqun over and asked him to work with the HR department that Wu Bin represented.

TPDb and Zhongdian Chinese Network’s headquarters were in the same building. Thus, Ma Yiqun arrived very quickly.

After some consideration, Pei Qian said, “I’l give you a new task. Develop an internal office chat software that belongs to Tengda.”

“FXT’s software function is not complete. It is seriously not in line with the Tengda spirit. As more and more new employees join Tengda, we have to develop an internal office chat software that belongs to Tengda.”

‘Ma Yiqun and Wu Bin nodded, thinking that what Boss Pei said made sense.

FXT was indeed a little outdated. It was indeed necessary to develop an internal office chat software for Tengda’s special situation.

“Then… Boss Pei, can we just follow the application and work on it? Can we perfect functions that FXT doesn’t have?” Ma Yiqun asked.

Pei Qian shook his head. “Of course not!”

“I think the biggest problem with FXT’s office chat software is that it is letting itself down because it blurs the border between office and life!”

“What kind of office software is this, sending messages frequently during non-working hours?”

“In my opinion, the internal office chat software that we are going to create should have the following characteristics.”

“First, we have to strictly distinguish and restrict the software function of the working time and knock-off time. The working time must be used normally. You cannot pop up the notice if you are not working time. You can dial the voice chat if you send a message without any sound or vibration. However,

you must apply for overtime limit first. There is a limit to the number of times each month.”

“The department that sent too much information after work means that the person-in-charge of the department is not capable enough. You have to report and criticize him!”

“Second, all work must be uploaded and downloaded using this chat system and email. Any employee who does not have a record on this software can reject it.”

“Third, create a checkpoint ranking. Employees can check in and out of work. Those who clock in the closest to the standard time to go to and from work can be rewarded. Anyone who arrives early or leaves late means that the work efficiency is low. The person-in-charge of the department must pay

attention and advise!”

“Fourth, we have to strictly regulate the way the process is handled: send news if it is not urgent or important; communicate in person if it is urgent and then send more news; email if it is important or not and send news later; if it is urgent or not, pull the video conference and then send more news.”

“Allin all, the person-in-charge has to standardize his own work flow and clarify the levels of various missions. Any problems that arise because of the unclear orders have nothing to do with the employees.”

“Fifth, open an anonymous forum. It’s the same as the Tengda Spirit test. Only I can check the identity of the anonymous person. No one else can check it. I allow everyone to post information on the forum as anonymous people and discuss the company’s mistakes and shortcomings.”

“That’s about it. I’l supplement it in the future when I think of new content.”

Pei Qian’s goal was very simple: First, everyone must use this software to convey the work content. Second, strictly monitor and strictly prohibit sending messages on rest days to arrange the work!

That was because some functions were not complete when using FXT. Thus, the person-in-charge of the department simply called or sent a message on other chat software. This caused a lot of trouble for the supervision.

How many people were secretly working over the weekend? It was really hard to calculate.

However, if he changed this software, all the person-in-charge would have to use it to send missions. If he did not use it to send missions, the employees would have the right to reject it.

That way, it would be clear at a glance which department was secretly working overtime and which department was always leaving early and late.

As for the checkpoint rankings and anonymous forums, these were all naturally derivative functions.

‘Wu Bin and Ma Yiqun were stunned.

Could it be that the ‘FXT function is not perfect’ that Boss Pei said was so imperfect!

Boss Pei’s requests might make people feel a little strange at first glance, but on further thought, it seemed to be more similar to Tengda’s style.

Was it strange for an office where the mouse was running around after work to freeze 90% of the functions of the internal chat software on a holiday?

It did not seem strange.. Instead, it made sense!
