Win-win as CPC works with foreigners
Print Edition
“HOW does a Communist organization coexist with a German enterprise? Will it affect our business?”
That was the concern of Chinese German Yang Zhiming, manager of the Nanchang subsidiary of medical supplier Fresenius Kabi, when members of the Communist Party of China applied to set up a branch in the company.
“Chinese and German people have different cultures, customs and ways of thinking. We were afraid that the Party activities might interfere with our business,” said Yang.
What changed their minds was the performance of the CPC members at the subsidiary. In response to a labor shortage, Party members there mobilized the entire staff to pitch in on recruitment. They also took the initiative to help resolve disputes within the company.
The German management team has found CPC members to be more self-disciplined and willing to undertake challenging tasks. They take on more responsibilities and appear more interested in the business.
In 2016, a Party branch was finally set up at the subsidiary with the approval of the German head office.
“CPC membership is not only a political identity, but a symbol of excellence. Moral integrity and competency in one’s work are both necessary criteria for membership. That’s what makes the CPC different,” said Zheng Changzhong, an expert on Party building at Shanghai-based Fudan University.
In a Nanchang shopping mall owned by German retailer Metro Group, management attitude toward Party members underwent a similar transition.
“Once we had a big order to fill but our forklift broke down,” said Chen Siying, head of the Party branch at the company. “Some CPC members worked nonstop for more than 10 hours, loading the freight with their bare hands.”
CPC membership is now a preferred qualification when recruiting new staff for the company.
According to the CPC Constitution, members should be a vanguard fighting for the Chinese working class. They should serve the people wholeheartedly and be ready to make any personal sacrifice.
