Recently, Huawei Investment Holding Co., Ltd. announced that it intends to distribute dividends of RMB61.4 billion (61,403,559,073.76) to shareholders by resolution of the company's internal authorities.
The more difficult the period, the more it is necessary to stabilize the military, and Huawei's approach is equivalent to setting an example in the corporate world.
In fact, this is not the first time Huawei has done this, in the early days of Huawei, funds are tight, business difficulties, it is difficult to recover a payment, all places have to spend money, but the high-level resolution, in the end, is to pay employees first.
When the employees received the money, they were confident and motivated, thus solving other difficulties.
In many cases, spending money is the most effective incentive, and only when morale is raised can the team get out of the predicament.
Enterprises are people-oriented, can not only stay in words, wall, the boss must really recognize the value of "people", people are fundamental, there are people to have everything.
Leave people without money, as long as there is money, people are gone, and things are lost. If you leave the person behind, the person and the money will be there.
The reason is not complicated, it all depends on how the leaders of the enterprise think and what direction to lead the team.
It is said that we must learn from Ren Zhengfei to learn Huawei, but Ren Zhengfei's "wealth is scattered and people gather", Huawei's "do not let the strivers suffer losses", and how many bosses and enterprises have learned?
It's one thing to want to get it, it's another thing to do it or not to do it.
Huawei has determined its own nature and orientation from a very early age, and in the Huawei Basic Law, it is clearly emphasized that the goal of continuous appreciation of human capital should take precedence over the goal of financial capital appreciation.
In other words, huawei is different from most enterprises in nature and underlying logic. Other companies emphasize the appreciation of the interests of bosses, shareholders and investors, while Huawei emphasizes the appreciation of human capital.
Among the world's high-tech enterprises, Huawei is a relatively "poor" one, which does not mean that Huawei's revenue scale is small and profits are small, but That Huawei spends money on human resources and research and development.
Huawei executives have explained this:
"The reason why Huawei is poor is because we spend most of our money investing in the future, employees are also the future of Huawei, and the company is also investing in employees, hoping that employees can quickly improve their capabilities and achieve value-added."
Because of the well-known difficulties and challenges, Huawei's revenue in 2021 has declined, and in this regard, the strategy proposed by Huawei's senior management is to "counter the difficulty of technology with the concentration of talents".
If Huawei is like other companies to "optimize personnel" and cut down on food and clothing, it is easy to understand. However, Huawei's orientation is people-oriented, not to let the strivers suffer losses, so Huawei still has to expand the scale of talents, attract talents from all over the world, and increase the company's talent concentration.
The reason why Huawei is like this has a lot to do with Ren Zhengfei. The outside world has always said that Ren Zhengfei has a large pattern, mainly because Ren Zhengfei is really "scattering wealth".
Ren Zhengfei as the founder and main investor of the company, the company belongs to him, but with the development of Huawei, Ren Zhengfei's shares have also been declining, but between 2017 and 2021, Ren Zhengfei's shareholding ratio has dropped by 40%. Today, Ren Zhengfei's shares are about 0.84%.
As a world-class enterprise with annual revenue of hundreds of billions of yuan, you can imagine how much wealth Ren Zhengfei has given up over the years.
For decades, Huawei has been able to work together, unite as one, and continue to develop, not without reason. And this is because Ren Zhengfei did not have the idea of taking the company for himself, and he did not do business to satisfy his own selfishness.
So Huawei is fighting for ideals, not for money.
Huawei's benefit distribution mechanism is called the "acquisition and sharing system", and all employees, including Ren Zhengfei and other senior executives, are based on value creation as the core to obtain benefits. Chen Lifang, senior vice president of Huawei, once told employees:
"There is no huge wealth among employees, the company's distribution method is 'capitalism + socialism', there must be a gap, the gap can not be too large, employees mainly rely on labor to create value, obtain personal wealth, capital gains as a whole only one-third of the income from labor, so as to continuously absorb outstanding talents to join, to make a big cake."
Huawei is not a capital-led enterprise organization, Huawei can control people's desires and greed, Huawei's mechanism determines that it is for the construction of long-term interests and long-term competitiveness, Huawei people are to work together to develop, share the company's success. Therefore, Huawei has the cultural and organizational foundation for continuous success.
