Dong Mingzhu once said: each employee is given a house,
where can I use the provident fund
According to Gree Electric Appliances Inc.Of Zhuhai(000651) official website, the company has nearly 90000 employees, including nearly 16000 R & D personnel and more than 30000 skilled workers.
It is worth noting that in an interview with the Beijing News, Dong Mingzhu, chairman of Gree Electric Appliances Inc.Of Zhuhai(000651) board of directors in 2020, once said that the housing provident fund is unnecessary. For example, Gree doesn’t need it. Every employee has issued a house, where can we use the provident fund.
As early as 2018, Dong Mingzhu publicly promised that “as long as Gree people, one person and one suite”.
According to a public report in 2018, Dong Mingzhu once said in an activity: “I encourage employees to work hard. Gree will provide 80000 employees with a house with two bedrooms and one living room. As long as you work until retirement, no matter how high the house price is.”
Soon after, the Gree Electric Appliances Inc.Of Zhuhai(000651) official also sent a microblog saying that it was about to honor the commitment of housing distribution, and the construction of talent apartments with an investment of 2 billion at its own expense also broke ground.
In February 2021, when talking about the details of housing allocation again, Dong Mingzhu said, “3700 talent houses will be put into operation this year. Next, we should first realize one suite for each scientific and technological personnel. As long as college students come, it is a suite. As long as you work in Gree until you retire, this suite will be given to you.”
Not long later, in June, Gree officially completed the first batch of more than 3000 talent apartments and announced that they would be put into use. Dong Mingzhu announced from the official account of the media that “Dong Mingzhu’s promise to deliver a single suite to GREE employees is really fulfilled.”
