I'm going to take another flight with you and talk to you about that big $23 million business.

The Story of Successful People Part II

At the age of 20, Han Ying graduated from Xiamen University and was assigned to China Offshore Oil Corporation. Many people are envious of this position. But a few years later, she resolutely lost her iron rice bowl, left this job, and joined Hewlett-Packard China Company to work in the finance department.

Family and friends are puzzled by her choice. But she is very calm: "Life is never too late to change."

As soon as she joined HP, Han Ying made a big move. It was in the late 1980s, when employees didn't have salary cards, and every time they were paid, two people did it by hand. Colleagues are responsible for some money, and Han Ying is responsible for verification.

There are more than 300 people in the company. At that time, there were no hundred-dollar bills, and a thick stack of bills was verified one by one, which made her dizzy. It's too much trouble to pay wages like this every month, which is a waste of time and easy to make mistakes. What can be done to improve it?

Another tense day is over. After work, Han Ying was exhausted. When she passed a bank near the company, she suddenly had a flash of light. I think: after the employees of their company receive the money, most of the money has not been deposited in the bank, and no one will spend a month's salary at once. In this case, why not let the bank pay wages ... The next morning, Han Ying found the person in charge of the bank, hoping to open an account for more than 300 employees of the company. "I will deposit the total monthly salary directly in the bank, and the employees will receive the salary with the passbook."

People in the bank are hesitant because no one has ever done this.

Han Ying said: "In this way, banks will have a lot of deposits, which is a good thing."

After her repeated explanation and persuasion, the bank finally agreed.

So when the salary is paid next month, Han Ying excitedly posted a notice outside the finance department, telling everyone that they don't have to wait in line to get their salary in the future. Just take the passbook and go to the bank below to get it.

But things didn't go as smoothly as she thought. Everyone who got the passbook seems to be dissatisfied. She stood in the finance department, talking about it gloomily. Han Ying was not at ease and sent a message to her immediate leadership.

As soon as she entered the office, Han Ying was criticized. The leader said that she had made two big mistakes. First of all, it is selfish to ask 300 employees to withdraw money for themselves. The second is to put up posters to publicize and act without the consent of the leaders. The leader asked her to go back and review herself with an expression. Han Ying returned to the accounting office, trying to hold back her tears. She has doubts in her heart. Did she really do something wrong? Is it wrong to spare employees the pain of queuing for wages and take the time to go to the bank to withdraw money? What's wrong with putting employees in the bank in advance? Is it wrong to tell everyone?

At this time, the leaders above also sent a message. Han Ying thought she would get more blame. When she came to the leadership office with anxiety and saw the smiling face of approval, a stone in her heart fell to the ground. Senior leaders affirmed Han Ying's practice and said approvingly: "You have rewritten the company's five-year history of paying wages by hand. This courage and innovative spirit are very commendable." This year, Han Ying was rated as an outstanding employee of Hewlett-Packard Company.

This incident became a turning point in Han Ying's career. At the commendation meeting, she said cheerfully, "Never be afraid of change. Opportunities in change will make you mature and more aware of your limitations. As long as you are a blue chip, investors will always know you, recognize you and support you for a long time. "

Today, Han Ying is the executive vice president and chief financial officer of AsiaInfo Technology China Co., Ltd. In 2009, with her outstanding contribution to AsiaInfo's financial management, she became the cover of the famous British magazine "Asia CFO" published on March 17, and was awarded the "Best Achievement Award for Asian CFO Financing" and "Special Excellence Award for SME Financial Management" by the magazine, which is the first time that China has won this honor since the award was established.

"Never be afraid of change" is the inspiration from Han Ying. Having innovative motivation and thinking, not afraid of failure, and daring to express your ideas will bring you closer to success.
