The so-called wage earner is a professional actor who gets paid by selling his labor or applying his knowledge to earn profits for the employed enterprises and companies. The counterpart to him is the entrepreneur.
Since the 1980s, our country has carried out a round of sensational reform and opening up by liberalizing the labor and land markets, centering on the coastal cities across the country, our economy and society have undergone radical changes, and the total national economy has caught up with the world's front-runners, and because of this era, which is characterized by the mobility of the labor force, it has been interpreted as the era of the wage earner.
From recent years, China's economic society is undergoing a dramatic transformation, mainly manifested
First, mass entrepreneurship. This era is characterized by the wage earners are entrepreneurs, they began to work for themselves, their own company enterprises or hold shares, with the spirit of ownership, always put the development of the company in mind, willing to work with the company's honor and glory, a loss of倶 loss. They work seriously, with a positive attitude, holding the core competitiveness of the company's enterprises, will not give more money to do more work, less money to do less work.
Second, innovation. Because they have a strong sense of responsibility, but also because they face the human society has never been the world's objective new situation, not only technological innovation, or innovation under the institutional mechanism, innovation in business management, innovation and progress of the mechanism mode, to stimulate the internal and external hidden huge potential to catch up with the advanced level of the world today.
Third, the massive use of robotics and intellectual control. This is also a significant feature of this era, the sign of the end of the working age, new industries, new technologies and new requirements, will certainly replace a large number of repetitive labor with intelligent robots, unmanned aircraft unmanned excavators unmanned underwater mining machine unmanned crane and a large part of the intelligent control tools, instead of manual labor to carry out complex, dangerous and precise batch repetitive labor, to promote the level of labor productivity of the operation, some simple repetitive, code The program, dangerous physical labor announced the end of the use.
Fourth, the refinement of the social division of labor. This is also our society must go through the process, we have seen, our country has entered into the aging society in advance, the number of laborers will be a substantial decline in the quality of the workforce will be significantly improved, they have received a systematic education, the use of computers and cell phones are their skilled tools, which creates a strong and structured opportunities for the refinement of the division of labor in the society, they will participate in the global competition, and the further refinement of the division of labor will certainly come. A further refinement of the social division of labor will surely come.
So next our country will have the opportunity to compete for the world's advanced level, this is the best time, this is a fast-changing time, this is a challenging time, we must not turn a blind eye, cold eyes. We must be the center of this opportunity!
The so-called wage earners, or rely on the sale of physical labor, or rely on mental labor, in order to help the employer or the employer unit to obtain business income, and at the same time to obtain the behavior of labor remuneration. The employer or employer company is the counterpart of the wage earner.
What we usually say "working" is more associated with physical labor, since the reform and opening up, especially since the 21st century, to go out to work has become the choice of many farmers, then as long as you go out to work is not afraid of hard work is not afraid of not finding a job, and even the employers directly chartered buses to the city, and the employers will not be able to find a job. Many employers directly chartered cars to the fields to pull people, and promised high wages. A word often heard at that time is "labor shortage", in fact, the "labor shortage" at that time with the country's infrastructure construction, vigorously promote the urbanization process has a lot to do.
Before the reform and opening up, the most basic understanding of our surroundings is: travel is difficult, communication is difficult, urban infrastructure is backward, rural water facilities are not perfect. But 40 years after the reform and opening up, the total railroad mileage increased from 52,000 kilometers in 1978 to 78,000 kilometers in 2007, the electrification mileage developed from 1,000 kilometers to 24,000 kilometers, the Guangzhou-Shenzhen Railway, Beijing-Tianjin Expressway, Beijing-Shanghai High-Speed Railway have been started and completed, the urban gas supply pipeline in 2007 was 39 times of that of 1980, and the greening area of the city and the infrastructure are increasingly increasing and improving. The production of coal, oil and natural gas has doubled several times in 40 years, coupled with the vigorous promotion of urbanization, the renovation of old districts and the rapid development of real estate and so on. The construction of major national projects such as the South-to-North Water Diversion Project and the West-to-East Natural Gas Pipeline have provided a huge number of jobs for both manual and mental workers.
So in the era of "big repairs and construction", as long as you are not afraid of "hard work", as long as you have a handful of strength, it is very easy to find a job, which is related to the economic structure of our country at that time and the development of the country in the course of a great relationship. This has a lot to do with the economic structure of the country and the history of the country's development.
But with the gradual transformation of China's economic structure and the completion of the urbanization process in recent years, coupled with the completion of some of the country's key projects have been constructed, the number of jobs available is also getting smaller and smaller, and the skills and qualities of the wage earners themselves are also getting higher and higher, and some of the wage earners who earn their wages by physical strength alone will be gradually eliminated.1. Economic restructuring: 40 years before the reform and opening up, China's economic development and growth mainly rely on energy, intensive labor-intensive industries, agriculture and heavy industry, which require a large number of laborers, and at that time the degree of mechanization and automation is relatively low, the demand for "people" is also natural. The demand for "people" was naturally greater. After 40 years of development, China is now vigorously adjusting its economic structure, and gradually transforming the previous economic growth model of high energy consumption and high labor consumption into a high-tech field.
Take cell phone manufacturing as an example, in globalization, before China is to take advantage of the labor force, low labor costs for assembly line cell phone assembly, and now more cell phone assembly assembly line has been transferred to South Asia, Southeast Asia, China, but instead of assuming the system development, software development research and development work.
2. Automation, intelligence instead of "artificial": Now the automation and intelligence of all kinds of industries in China to a higher degree, the degree of dependence on "people" is reduced, which of course also reduces the demand for labor. The need for labor, before 10 people to run a production line, now a button on the completion.
Let's not talk about manual labor positions, take the accounting position, before the manual accounting, now with calculators, computers, accounting software, completely computerized accounting, a large enterprise in the past may need 20 accountants, and with the popularity of computers and the application of computerization, now need 5 accountants will be enough, and more efficient.
3. The process of urbanization is basically complete: It is undeniable that if there is no urbanization, there will not be so many "migrant workers". China's urbanization rate was only 17.9% in 1978, and reached 60.6% in 2017. In the process of urbanization, roads have become wider, skyscrapers have risen, urban infrastructure has become better, and cities have become cleaner, all of which are inseparable from the contribution of the majority of workers.
At present, China's urbanization rate has reached the average level of developing countries, and there is only a 20% gap between the 80% urbanization rate of developed countries, so it is unlikely that urbanization will provide too many jobs for working people in the future.
4. The role of real estate as an economic engine has disappeared: After the golden decade of the real estate market in 2008-2018, the real estate industry has provided a large number of labor positions for wage earners in this decade, and with the implementation of the policy of "housing without speculation" and the policy of strict control of housing prices in various parts of the country, the real estate sector has become a major source of income. With the implementation of the policy of "housing without speculation" and the policy of strict control of housing prices, the role of real estate as an economic engine is disappearing, and then replaced by 5G, big data, artificial intelligence, network technology, etc., which will certainly not be like real estate for manual laborers to provide too many jobs.
ConclusionSo through the above analysis, we can easily see that the "working age" will end? The answer is yes!
The development of science and technology is bound to reduce the number of jobs, but the reduction of jobs is more purely by selling physical work, and technology, ability, quality of talent will become the "meat and potatoes" in the future economic restructuring.
So in order to avoid being eliminated, the most important thing is to learn, learn, learn, and strive to improve their ability to adapt to the needs of the times.
Pengyu believes that the era of wage earners is coming to an end, but it certainly won't end in our lifetime, so what should we do? In fact, it is very simple: try to be the boss ah, the conditions do not yet have that first working it!The so-called part-time job is to hire someone else to work for you, and pay you a monthly salary, which is an ancient model that has been around for hundreds of years. I have divided my career into two categories: bosses and part-timers. The boss pays the money, and the part-timer pays the labor. From this point of view, whether it is a high income of millions of dollars a year managers, or cleaners, security guards and waiters, essentially the same, the boss wants to use you to pay your salary, do not want to use you to both sides of a negotiated termination of the labor contract, that's all. From this, the boss in the eyes of the working man to pay wages to feed him, in order to let him make money for me, essentially and raise a pig, to the penning period to sell no difference (the words are not rough, you when the boss will be sure to think so), all pay attention to a input-output ratio.
So the news reported that a large company facing a severe economic situation, began layoffs, optimization of personnel, cost reduction and efficiency, a lot of layoffs in the workplace, glass heart flooded, cursing the company has no conscience, the old man worked hard for the company to sell their lives, why cut me? But the boss is thinking, the old man has now lost money, and then feed so many people, the company closed down, everyone is finished, rather than a full plate is not as good as a broken arm to survive, the market environment is not good, I am not easy ah!
If you are still working, remember, in order not to let the times abandon the wage earners, what we can do is to get rid of the identity of the wage earners as soon as possible, promoted to the boss
The identity of the wage earners doomed to the survival of the initiative into the hands of others. With the development of modern technology, many factories are beginning to use robots to replace the wage earners, robots do not have to pay social security provident fund, can be dry 24 hours a day never tired, no mood swings, do not need to drink, eat and rest, to the boss to save a lot of heart. So the working profession will be less and less in the future, the future to not let the times abandon us wage earners, while young, save up a sum of money, the conditions are in place to register their own company, earn more or less is their own. Remember, the wage earners in the eyes of the boss is always a cost, he needs to reduce the cost of the time, it will take you to open the knife. Only when they are the boss, they can really grasp the initiative to survive.
Summary: in the workplace you, if you want to seek stability, do not want to take risks, go to work, but remember that working is not without risk, is the risk of temporary no outbreak. Don't wait for the times to eliminate the wage earners, rush to the end of the wage earning era before the change from wage earners to bosses, this is the safest program.
The lions and tigers in the zoo live in peace and quiet, every day, eat and drink enough sun quite comfortable, do not feel the risk, but do not know that this peace is at the expense of freedom and greater opportunity to gain at the expense of. The first thing you need to do is to get your hands on a new one, and you'll be able to do that.
As long as the capital market is still there, the labor market is still there, the part-time job is not completely over. The word "working", as the name suggests, "playing" here refers to "from", engaged in, "work", is "Work" means to work, to engage in some kind of work. But it seems to be different from the official work, the difference lies in the part-time work is the nature of employment, with the reform of privatization of state-owned enterprises, a lot of factories and units, are contracted, the factory director has become the boss, to change the name of the boss, called the chairman of the board of directors, called the manager, the workers called employees, employees, staff, and laborers. Don't underestimate the change in name, the whole business model has changed. In addition to the formal establishment of institutions, other employees are called wage earners, as long as they follow the private sector or private dry, all wage earners, so some people tease themselves that we are all wage earners. It is not that the working people are inferior, just the nature of the difference, let's say the film company, acting company, after privatization, even those stars are working, employment relationship, shoot a film, how much money you give you per episode, talk about the conditions of the shooting, this is the relationship of employment, including Messi and Crow, all the working people.
Farmers working is called out to work, because the place of work is not in front of the door, so you need to go out to work outside, and some even cross-city and cross-province, you need to leave your home to leave your home, and the two mouths live in two places. And these years with the continuous expansion of the city scale, coupled with the money of farmers to the city to buy housing, household registration liberalization, many people farm to non-permanent, so now the rural population is very small, it is said that only 500 million out of the head of the fast approaching 1 / 3, the future may be 1/4, 1 / 5, or even the proportion accounted for less, because the United States arable land is also quite a lot of farmers, only 3 million. And now there are too many scattered small enterprises in China, which need to be integrated, and some of them are facing closure due to fierce competition, and there are more layoffs. Then in recent years, farmers have a mood, there is a voice, no longer support the division of the land alone, after all, the power of the individual is too small, some crops are harvested can not be sold, and the price was purchasers pressured by the very low, but also hope that the land consolidation, to engage in agricultural cooperatives, to support the collectivization of the development of the collective land to the collective to manage. Then also do not want to rely on generations of ancestors to go out to work, always get together less and more separation, always feel not a thing, also want to keep the family and business, and then life is secure. Therefore, although the era of part-time jobs will not end, it will not be like the past, and with the development of the times will become fewer and fewer. Moreover, the proliferation of privatization has led to overcapacity, too many duplicated industries, a serious slippage in the real economy, and a serious imbalance between supply and demand, and when supply exceeds demand, it is very difficult to find outlets for products. The closure of private enterprises means that employees are laid off. Moreover, once laid off, the livelihood of private enterprise employees is no longer protected, not even unemployment benefits, not to mention pensions. In addition, the power of the individual can not, not as strong as the collective power, so the city needs to be integrated, the rural areas also need to be integrated, the future of private enterprises will be less and less, the state-owned enterprises will be more and more. The fact is that the government has not yet made a decision on the matter, and it has not yet made a decision on how to proceed.
Please see the following chart to show you why the era of working is over.
China is no longer the world's processing plant, with the reform and opening up since 40 years? The Chinese people have stood up, the Chinese people are also rich, China is no longer the representative of cheap labor, many factories have been moved to other poorer countries, Chinese workers have been slowly transformed from the secondary industry to the tertiary and quaternary industries! The motherland has been transformed from an industrial powerhouse into a technological powerhouse
What should we do next? In fact, there is no need to worry too much, but for ordinary people have the opportunity to learn more skills, is the response to unemployment, a good way to save for a rainy day
I remember in the United Kingdom, when the automobile was first invented, the horsemen went on strike and they were worried about losing their jobs......lol! But they didn't realize that there were better job opportunities waiting for them
Take now, where did all the 7080 wage earners go before? We found no, now there is a large influx of takeaway riders, physiotherapy massage attendant, garden workers, cleaning aunts ......
The decline of an industry, there is the rise of another industry
This is always the same law
Where there are people, there is society, and there is a society where there will be The division of labor. I don't know if there will be a society without hierarchy, but it will definitely be an era of social division of labor.
Some people are capitalists, some people are operators, and some people are company employees, and these three are the most basic elements of the enterprise.
There is no denying that this is the best of times, giving everyone equal rights to pursue their dreams.
If you want to end up working for someone else, look at these three conditions first
No matter who you are, you are working for someone else, and most of you are working for your boss. Therefore, first of all, we should change our mindset and think y about what conditions we need to have in order to work for "ourselves" in the future. Generally speaking, there are three basic conditions
1, transferable vocational skills
This is the most basic condition for most ordinary people to end up "working for others". As the old saying goes, "a skill for defense" is the truth. The panning of industry skills is that when you leave your current company, there will be competitors in the same industry who will come to dig you out because of "your skills".
2,, can be replicated industry experience
Familiarity with the industry's history and development, grasp of market information, market development ability and the future market sense of smell, this is your industry experience, when you decide not to work, decided to devote to an industry, the above mentioned to the four points, you have a few points?
3, to take away the network
The real network in line with the two points:
First: your customers are because you just order, not because the product just order, when you do not do in the company, ready to jump to the same industry, or their own stove, to ensure that your customers are willing to give with you.
Second: your company's colleagues are willing to help you, perhaps you are now the department leader, colleagues respect you, you smile and welcome, it is because of your "title", but once you leave the company after it? The real networking should be after you quit your job and start your own business, the previous colleagues are willing to give you help, such as sharing timely information about the industry, help you contact suppliers, help you get a lower purchase price, and even introduce some customers to you, even if it is a small customer.
Wish you could end up working for someone else soon and meet your own era
The era of working for someone else will not end, but it will be transformed between industries. You see now the Internet industry up, the network to do business, sell things on fire, the traditional business have to close, and now to the street, the big mall is very few, a variety of specialty stores are disappearing. But Alibaba, Jingdong, Pinduoduo up, there are countless shopkeepers, micro-merchants are selling goods, then many new jobs were born, their own when the small boss, distribution, courier, etc. began to develop greatly. Now **** enjoy the economy up, many new jobs also began to recruit.
Even if in the future the big development of artificial intelligence, many repetitive jobs are replaced by robots, but you have to believe that the robot is, after all, a human product, it is impossible to completely replace people.
So don't worry about that. Because many of the high intelligence belonging to human beings themselves can never be replaced by robots. For example, literary and artistic creations, being a boss, and so on.
The key is to have their own professional skills, and constantly keep up with the times, so that they can grow with the same generation ****.
Some people say that the era of working is coming to an end, this word can not be so absolute, right, just now the era has changed a lot. Let's take a look.
Is the era of part-time work coming to an endThe era of part-time work should not end, because now, no matter how big or small enterprises can not be separated from the normal operation of people.
Grassroots work requires manpower to complete. The company's clerical, sales, design ...... need people, the service industry is more obvious, courier, takeaway and other various positions can not be separated from people.
Middle and senior leaders need more human brain. This job requires thinking, leadership, vigor ...... not only need people, but also need to have some experience and ability to lead the whole team operation.
Technicians, many technical positions are also essential to the need for the human brain, has an irreplaceable role, and with the modernization of science and technology, more and more demanding technical personnel.
Robotics has changed what happens to part-time jobs.
Robots replace manual work, and many industries have been replaced by robots for repetitive work. Robots are widely popular with companies for their low cost, no vacations, and no emotions .......
Machining and intelligence saves labor costs. For the same reason as robots, having smart and machinized equipment makes work more efficient.
Due to the constant development of the times, working people need to improve their competitiveness and not be eliminated by the society.
Working and Starting a BusinessTo summarize, even if working still exists, the number of people needed to work will be greatly reduced. So what do the rest do? Some will choose to start their own business.
Now is an era of strong innovation, there are many emerging industries continue to rise, there are many opportunities, there are also many young people choose to start a business, do the wind and fire.
However, entrepreneurship is different from working, or to do a lot of preliminary preparatory work needs to be done, there is also a certain risk. Therefore, we rational entrepreneurship, rather than follow the trend.
Personal opinionIn this era, a variety of positions still need to work part-time personnel, do not need to be too nervous, but to improve the ability of personal work. If you choose to start a business, be rational.
What era needs wage earners, do not commit this worry for the future.
Back then, the theory of surplus value said that the more technological progress, there will be more unemployed people. In the past three decades, information technology has been advancing rapidly, so has society seen as many unemployed people as expected? No, I don't think so. Because the progress of information technology has led to the development of more and more industries, and the division of labor in society has become more and more fine-grained, and many people are needed in every aspect. The so-called unemployed are only those whose knowledge is not enough to meet the needs.
In the past, there were 72 trades, then 360 trades, and now 3600 trades. The progress of society is under constant expansion, and the original theory of surplus value needs to evolve with the times.
For example: PC to networking, LAN to Internet, and then to mobile Internet. Information from discrete data to big data, cloud computing. Shopping from offline to online, and from online to offline. Data creates value, and wherever there is value there is a need for people. Rural areas were originally planting and harvesting, and now they are engaged in rural tourism and agricultural industrialization. Industry from the original manual and semi-manual manufacturing, to today's intelligent digitalization. And so on. In fact, each industry can be subdivided and then refined and then expanded.
This is back to the aphorism: live to learn. To not lag behind in the future, it is necessary to continue to learn, constantly enrich themselves, I believe that as long as it is not a lazy person will certainly have a place for you.
