Chapter 1171 Time flies so fast
"What's the matter? Why are you acting like this?"
Cheng Kaiyuan smiled and waved his hand, lit a cigarette himself, and signaled his secretary Zhang Shicheng not to keep an eye on him.
He looked at Cen Fuyao who was sitting opposite him and asked, "Did your work report go smoothly, or did you get humiliated by Director Li?"
"It's normal for the leaders to care about United Industries. It's just that I'm not capable enough and my level is average."
Cen Fuyao said such a hypocritical word, which made Cheng Kaiyuan on the opposite side very happy.
Li Xuewu cooperated with Li Huaide to carry out two major projects in the Red Star Factory, one was the tertiary industry and the other was the joint industry.
There is only one management organization for the tertiary industry. Although there are many parties involved in personnel matters, no matter how much money or equipment you invest, you will only be given dividend shares.
The advantages of independent operation, independent finance, and self-financing are small scale, few restrictions, and rapid development.
Joint industries are mainly joint ventures, with management responsibilities and powers divided according to the nature of shares and joint ventures.
The functions of the management agency are more inclined towards service and organizational coordination, while the rights of operations, finance, personnel, etc. are in the hands of the branches it manages.
As a production unit, compared with the tertiary industry in Beijing, the Steel City United Industry is more difficult to control.
United Industries is larger in scale, its units are more independent, and has greater room for expansion.
From the perspective of equity and management, the equity of the tertiary industry is concentrated in the management office, and the responsibilities and powers are also in the management office.
The equity of United Industrial is in the branch factory, so the corresponding responsibilities and powers are also in the branch factory.
Wang Yuzheng has the power to manage all enterprises in the tertiary industry with just a pen, but Cen Fuyao cannot do that.
The motorcycle manufacturing plant has Beijing Credit Union as a shareholder, so the factory’s finances are managed by credit union officials.
Among the three factories under the Food Industry, Wufenghang holds shares in two, so you can see people from Wufenghang in these two units.
Bus factories, car factories, machine processing factories, etc., many factories are joint ventures.
He wanted to intervene in the management of these factories, exert influence, and do things according to the old ideas.
The results of it?
The problem was directly reported by those people to Jing Yunong who was passing through Gangcheng on his way back to Beijing.
As soon as he received the news, he followed Jing Yunong to the capital, wanting to find his leader to explain.
What made him feel disappointed was that Li Huaide refused to see him at all.
Secretary Li Haiyang conveyed the leader's words and asked him to meet Deputy Director Li first.
Originally he was also from the government, so he naturally knew the organizational structure and the cadres in the government very well.
But after being away from Beijing for more than a year, no matter how frequently we report and communicate, there will still be geographical alienation and estrangement.
Cen Fuyao did not work in isolation. He had some understanding of the organizational ecology of the Red Star Factory.
It’s just that I’ve been busy with the personnel arrangements of United Industries recently, and when I returned to the factory, it seemed that everything had changed.
The leadership division of labor has changed, the personnel in the agency has changed, and even the office system has changed.
If there is no special reason, it is normal for Li Huaide not to see him.
Because Li Huaide rarely meets with cadres of his level in person.
According to the work procedures, cadres who take the initiative to return to Beijing to report on their work should first report to the management committee office and then make an appointment to meet with the supervisor.
Finally, based on the opinions of the supervisor, it will be decided whether to arrange for him to meet more leaders or Director Li of the Management Committee.
This is a formal procedure, but he came back suddenly, and he was already feeling guilty, plus the report he submitted...
Li Huaide is a man of high organizational quality and a very clever way of handling work.
This can be seen from the fact that he pushed back the report submitted by Cen Fuyao intact and arranged for his secretary to notify him to meet Li Xuewu.
Who is in charge of the current joint industries?
He used to be in charge of Jing Yunong, but later, as the industry grew in scale, part of the business was handed over to Dong Wenxue in accordance with geopolitical trends.
With this change in the division of labor, United Industries was handed over entirely to Dong Wenxue, who was responsible for planning a specialized factory as planned.
Those are the branches and factories mentioned by Li Xuewu.
For example, hardware manufacturing plants, electromechanical manufacturing plants, automobile manufacturing plants, etc.
Unlike the tertiary industry, although the Joint Industrial Management Office was handed over to Dong Wenxue, within three years, each branch and factory was independently divided and operated, and the management office handed over its power to the group.
Like the newly built rolling mills and steelmaking plants, they are all specialized factories and specialized branches.
The management structure was upgraded from the current Red Star Steel Rolling Mill to Red Star Steel Group.
Therefore, Cen Fuyao’s supervisor should be Dong Wenxue.
However, according to the division of production management and Li Huaide's layout in personnel work, Cheng Kaiyuan now also has administrative management rights.
Is it messy? Not messy.
One is business and the other is administration, they are two different things.
The leaders of the management committee knew exactly what Cen Fuyao was thinking, and his little actions were also seen by everyone.
The reason why no one reminded him or warned him was that the current organizational ecology of the Red Star Factory was very complex.
How many people are eager to wait for him to make a mistake so that they can replace him, but the factory leaders also have other ideas.
The fact that Dong Wenxue didn't say anything or take any action shows that he is still worth protecting and using.
Li Huaide's brilliance is fully demonstrated here. Does anyone understand what he meant by doing this?
He could not meet Cen Fuyao because United Industrial had a responsible leader, especially during the sensitive period of division of labor adjustment at Red Star Factory.
The reason why he was asked to meet Li Xuewu was because Li Xuewu was familiar with the organizational and personnel situation in the factory.
The evolution of United Industries into a professional factory was a foregone conclusion, and Cen Fu-yao knew it.
That's why he wanted to take advantage of this time to plan a car manufacturing plant to pave the way for his future.
But he has no right to distribute this cake, and now the cake hasn't even been served on the table, but he wants to grab it. Will the factory give in?
If Dong Wenxue hadn't made other arrangements, Li Xuewu would have chopped off his hands long ago.
It was a good deal for him to go to the electronics factory, but he really dared to go to the car manufacturing factory.
Ding Zigui, Wang Yuzheng and others pondered for a long time. Wang Yuzheng worked hard to smooth things over with Li Huaide, and finally he got what he wanted and went to the Tertiary Industry Management Office.
Ding Zigui took the initiative to contact Li Xuewu and communicate with Dong Wenxue, and cooperated very well in their work.
How could a Cen Fuyao be qualified to plan and pave the way when he hasn't even sat at the poker table?
This situation was set up by Li Xuewu. If anyone dares to interfere, the little hammer on his back will not allow it.
Ask Cheng Kaiyuan, as the deputy director of the Red Star Factory Management Committee, whether he dares to touch Li Xuewu's cake.
Of course he didn't dare, but since he was already at the table, he had to play his cards and consider himself.
So, when Cen Fuyao came to him and said this, he knew that it was time to play his cards.
-
"What the hell is this?"
Li Huaide pointed at the particularly long trumpet and asked the band leader, "Is this long also called a suona?"
You may say that Lao Li knows nothing, but he still knows to call it suona instead of trumpet.
But if you say he understands, he can't even tell the difference between these row of big and small speakers.
"This is a trombone," the person in charge said a little nervously, but also honored, because this is a big leader, and it is rare to see him.
So he took the initiative to explain, "Because it is longer, it is called a trombone."
"Oh--"
Lao Li nodded as if he understood, pointed to another trumpet and said, "Then it's shorter, so it's called a cornet?"
"Uh..." The person in charge hesitated for a moment, then pointed to the loudspeaker next to him with a dry laugh and said, "This is called a cornet."
"What about this?"
Old Li is so thick-skinned that he can stand it even if he gets embarrassed, but you should stop being so picky.
You don't play it, you don't learn it, you just listen to the sound, why are you asking so many questions?
He bought the Western band instruments he wanted from Hong Kong City, so he came to take a look, show some concern and express some appreciation.
No, he had to catch that loudspeaker and find out.
You said that if you met someone sensible, you would nod and say yes to whatever Lao Li said, which would be great and save everyone trouble.
Even if you say this thing is a cornet, when the performance starts, he can still run onto the stage and ask you if you said it right?
It seems that comrades at the grassroots level still have little understanding of the fact that their leaders know nothing about the business.
The person in charge was also funny. He introduced them to Li Huaide: "This is a trumpet, and this is a cornet."
“Oh, this is a small one.”
I don't know if it was to save face for himself or if he was really eager to learn and asked questions, but Lao Li looked around and found the largest speaker and asked, "Is this the tuba?"
"You can call it that," the person in charge pushed the large glasses on his face and emphasized, "but it's usually called a tuba."
Zhang Li, deputy chief of the Propaganda Department and captain of the Art Propaganda Team, who was standing not far away, was biting her back teeth so hard that they were about to break.
You are so stupid! The leader finally guessed it right once, and you come up with the tuba again!
Does it matter what it’s called?
No wonder he is over 40 years old and still just an office worker, without any sense of propriety!
"Hehehe——"
Li Xuewu heard the sound of her grinding her teeth, looked at her and smiled.
Zhang Li was also embarrassed. She lowered her head in shame and explained: "It's my fault, I..."
"That's great, I didn't know this."
Li Xuewu chuckled and nodded, then followed Li Huaide to the other side to watch the acrobatic performance team's report.
Zhang Li turned around and glared at the head of the instrument team who didn't know what was going on, nodded him and followed him out.
"There was a wide variety of acrobatics in the early days," the head of the acrobatics team reported, "such as various plays, various music, song and dance plays, puppet shows, etc., also known as miscellaneous plays and juggling."
Seeing that Li Huaide was very interested, he pulled the wrinkles on his face and introduced with a smile: "We used to be from the drama and acrobatic troupe, this is not..."
It's obvious at first glance that he's a veteran. Judging from the training that these acrobats have received since they were young, he must have been practicing this craft before liberation.
He looks to be in his forties and has plenty of experience in stage performances, but now his main focus is still management and teaching.
"It doesn't matter. Once we enter the Red Star Factory, we're a family."
Li Huaide is willing to deal with such honest people. He doesn't like the long or short, big or small person just now.
It's a horn. If you change its shape, it's still a horn!
I gave you the face by calling you trombone, I asked you to call me trumpet, no one in the Red Star Factory dared to call you trombone, believe it or not!
Of course, Lao Li is still very cultured and would not get angry with a few loudspeakers.
If you don't watch Western music, there are still acrobatics and opera.
He smiled and comforted the other party: "Behind the closed door, we are a family. We can say anything. What is important is unity and discipline."
Well, with these two standards in place, there’s actually not much to say.
The person in charge is very knowledgeable and smart. The fact that he was recruited by the Red Star Factory at this time actually explains a lot of problems.
He took the initiative to introduce: "We can do soft skills, car skills, ventriloquism, balancing bowls, tightrope walking and magic tricks."
"If you want to add more performances, we can actually do lion dancing, martial arts performances, and even circus training."
The person in charge talked about his own expertise, and he seemed to be very knowledgeable. He counted on his fingers and reported to Li Huaide: "Like training monkeys, training sheep, training bears, training dogs, training tigers..."
"Hehehe——"
Old Li was also amused by his simple and honest appearance. He nodded and said to Li Xuewu affirmatively: "You are a very simple person."
“Folk artists are both obsessed with and confident in their skills in making food.”
Li Xuewu smiled and agreed: "It doesn't matter what you do. If you don't have confidence, how can you be qualified to go on stage?"
"Your leader is really educated," the person in charge gave a thumbs up in a simple manner, and said with a somewhat embarrassed look on his rough face: "We know what it means, but we just can't put it into words."
"Hahaha--"
Li Huaide likes such people very much. They are honest, sensible and obedient. It is good that they will not correct the cornet and trumpet.
He patted the other person's shoulder and asked in a friendly tone, "Where are you from? Judging from your accent, it seems you are not far away, right?"
"You have good hearing. I am from Ji Province."
Otherwise, why do you call him an old man of the world? The habits he acquired from his early years of wandering around the world are still there.
When speaking you must first compliment the other person, then answer with an empty tone, and be cautious and leave only half of what you want to say.
This also shows that before liberation, the status of literary and art workers was low and the working environment was very bad.
The lower nine classes, their social class is defined by their identity.
If you look further ahead, you will find that there are no artists in later generations who are as humble, cautious and low-key as them.
This just shows that our society has developed, the times have progressed, and they have been given more respect.
It’s just that some people are not worthy of respect, and artists have become the bosses.
The saying "drama is more important than life" means that if you don't take your cooking skills seriously, you won't have anything to eat tomorrow.
If people in later generations bring this up again, it's just to gild themselves. They've done all kinds of terrible things. They've even mastered the one-finger Zen, and now they have the nerve to perform on stage.
That so-called indefinite retirement of Lu Fan was just a lonely retirement, with one foot still reluctant to leave.
Li Xuewu had great respect for literature and art and literary and art workers, otherwise he would not have formed the Red Star Factory Literary and Art Propaganda Team.
Also, he took the initiative to raise two opera artists who were living on the streets. Isn't this also a practical contribution to opera?
Is it a contribution to preserve the flame of national quintessence at this time, wait for the arrival of spring, sprout and grow in the future, and pass on the classics?
No need to praise him, you don't need to praise him, this is what Li Xuewu should do.
"Most of our group members are from the same hometown," the person in charge introduced with a smile, "We have been brothers since childhood, or apprentices."
"This acrobatic performance team originally belonged to the Peking Opera Troupe, but was later split off."
Zhang Li took the initiative to introduce the group: "Most of the comrades in the group come from Hebei Province and Tianjin."
“Well, I know something about this.”
Li Huaide nodded, looked at Li Xuewu and introduced: "There are many in Wuqing, Wuqiao, Suning and Baxian."
"Very good. I just watched everyone's presentation and listened to Comrade Guo Qing's introduction. I am very satisfied."
After hearing what the leader said, Zhang Li finally breathed a sigh of relief. She waited for the leader to say a few more words before she led everyone in applauding.
The crowd came out from the acrobatic troupe and headed towards the folk art troupe.
On the way, Zhang Li took the initiative to report: "Leader, the art propaganda team is expanding, and we also need to organize a performance department. Look at our organization——"
She hesitated for a moment, and explained somewhat embarrassedly: "I originally wanted to report to Director Bu first, and you happened to be here, so I..."
"Hahaha, so you reported to a higher level, didn't you?"
Li Huaide teased her, and seeing her nervous face, he waved his hand and said, "It's just a joke, it's okay."
He stopped and stood in the yard, motioning to Li Xuewu beside him and said, "If you have any difficulties or problems, you can report them directly to Deputy Director Li. This way, they can be solved faster."
"I attach great importance to the art propaganda team, and you should be able to feel it."
Li Huaide said with a serious expression: "Please ask Deputy Director Li to coordinate with the city to purchase a theater in Beijing, just to provide you with more opportunities and stages."
"Thank you, leader—"
Zhang Li is worthy of being Li Xuewu's soldier. When she heard Li Huaide say this, she took the initiative to praise him and led the people who came out behind her to applaud and express their gratitude.
Li Huaide had always attached great importance to the art and literature propaganda team. Now that he had such a capable person in charge, he could no longer hide his seriousness on his face and just smiled and waved his hand.
"It is necessary to place this kind of literary and artistic work in the propaganda department."
He put one hand behind his back and raised the other hand, gesturing to support his speech: "At the organizational work meeting at the beginning of the year, Comrade Weijie and Xuewu both talked about this, right?"
"Film, literature and art, radio, and the factory newspaper are the propaganda fronts of the Red Star Factory. They are responsible for the important mission of cultural and organizational propaganda."
"Of course, it's not to restrict your work, nor is it to restrict your performance space."
Li Huaide turned around and glanced at the people who were coming out of the building and standing around him in the yard.
The art and literature propaganda team expanded very quickly. At the beginning of the year, there were only 300 people, but now there are almost 500 people.
If by the end of the year, a large factory with 90,000 people is equipped with a 500-person art and propaganda team, it is actually nothing.
It’s just that Li Xuewu likes to calculate, he doesn’t want to suffer any loss, and he doesn’t want to cause trouble for Jing Yunong.
That’s why we had the plan to balance profits and losses, and to push literary and artistic work to other joint enterprises. We also had to organize literary and artistic publicity work and set up a literary and artistic publishing house.
Li Huaide knew very well what Zhang Li wanted to say, which was nothing more than giving the propaganda team more space in terms of organization.
After all, there are nearly 500 people, and the staff is so tightly packed that it is inevitable that there will be management inconveniences.
His opinions were also very clear. He emphasized the importance of literary and artistic propaganda and also talked about the factory's sorting and arrangement of literary and artistic work during the process of groupization.
"Deputy Director Li reported to me on the establishment of the Performance Department and the Training Department. That's great."
Li Huaide nodded at Zhang Li and said, "You are now the deputy chief of the Propaganda Department, so the Art Propaganda Team is a deputy-section-level unit."
"The organization of the Art and Literature Propaganda Team should not change, and the division into professional teams should not change either."
He gestured to Li Xuewu and said, "You can listen to Deputy Director Li's opinion. There is no problem with vertical and horizontal management."
"Now that the performance department has been established, the five theaters will take turns rehearsing, and they will also be responsible for rehearsing large-scale performances. Can you set up a performance group internally?"
"Deputy Director Li——"
Li Huaide called Li Xuewu and asked, "Do you think this is the idea? Should we give some preference to it in terms of the establishment?"
"It's a deputy-section-level unit," Li Xuewu answered without thinking too much, "The management system is built with the section-level structure as the framework, and the business system is formed with the arts and literature officers as the backbone."
"Comrade Zhang Li——"
Li Huaide called the name of the head of the literature and art propaganda team and asked with a smile, "Are you satisfied with Deputy Director Li's explanation?"
"I am satisfied. Thank you, boss, and Deputy Director Li," Zhang Li explained with a smile, "I didn't understand..."
"Hey, what are we here for?"
Li Huaide didn't care about her modesty and nervousness. He smiled and waved his hand and said to everyone: "Red Star Factory is a big family. As a parent, I can't help but be careless about some things."
"If you stretch out your palm, your fingers are of different lengths, right?"
He knew how to mobilize the emotions on the spot, and said in a very friendly tone: "I still say the same thing, if you have any questions, you can tell me, and if you don't understand, you can ask."
"Thank you, leader—"
Led by Zhang Li, everyone once again gave warm applause.
They are all performing artists. Don't they know how to act? They are the professionals.
He did not go into the building. In this courtyard, Li Huaide read the report of the newly joined quyi work team.
-
Time flies, and it’s August in the blink of an eye.
There was still a little wind in July, but after August, the wind completely disappeared.
The cicadas outside the window were chirping non-stop, as if they also knew that the sun was hot and were chirping in the sun.
I didn't want to bring my children back to suffer this. There is no air conditioning in the courtyard, and the houses are low and stuffy.
But for several weeks in a row, either Li Xuewu was busy or it was inconvenient at home. The old lady really missed her great-grandson, and Liu Yin also missed her eldest grandson, so they had to come back even if they didn't want to.
Sunday was a quiet day. Ever since the factory announced Operation Thunder, all workshops had learned a lesson.
Especially the murder case that happened last month. Even though it had nothing to do with fighting, someone died after all.
After a month of public security and safety rectification, coupled with Operation Thunder, the public security effect at the Red Star Factory was very obvious.
As of early August, the Security Department had approved the arrest of 47 people, and 118 people had been expelled.
This is the most serious and earnest action taken by Red Star Factory since its establishment, and it is also the largest-scale disciplinary punishment decision.
More than one hundred people were fired, and the impact was far-reaching. The young employees finally woke up and realized that the factory was serious about it.
So no matter which faction or company they belonged to, all young workers at the Red Star Factory withdrew and returned to their production positions in the workshop.
Even the production area after get off work seemed a little quieter, as if everyone's attention had shifted back from outside the factory.
The factory union also worked very hard and jointly organized many social gatherings with Beijing Railway, Beijing Textile, Beijing Chemical, Beijing Machinery and other units.
The purpose is simple, to give these young men and women a chance to interact with each other and to give love a chance.
If they are not given something to do, these young workers will cause trouble sooner or later.
The security team worked hard on this matter, coordinating with multiple departments to maintain stability and ensure a safe environment.
Li Xuewu also demonstrated mature work skills and abilities in this job.
Li Huaide and other factory leaders were very satisfied with him and the security team, but they did not have such a good mood and attitude towards other departments that were slow to respond and lacked management.
In early August, taking advantage of the personnel changes within the agency, the Organization Department and the Personnel Department took joint action to investigate and hold accountable those management issues that had arisen recently.
The ideological and educational management positions in the production workshop have been replaced by a new batch of people, and many of the new recruits are from government agencies.
All local offices, branches and factories, tertiary industries and allied industries have staff transferred down to the grassroots level.
The merger of sixteen units was also on track, and Jing Yunong presided over this work after his return.
The cadres of the first two merged units were assessed and screened, and a thorough evaluation was conducted. According to the assessment results, they were distributed to various departments, branches and management offices of Red Star Factory.
The service and logistics personnel underwent business evaluation and assessment, a portion of them were retained, and the rest were diverted to joint units and labor teams.
The largest number of people are production workers. According to the merger plan, these people will be arranged to corresponding production positions after passing the assessment, mainly to cope with the three-shift production system that has been implemented in the Red Star Factory.
At the same time, the tertiary industries that have been completed have also begun to take over the production equipment and technology of these two companies, and reintegrate and merge them into the existing tertiary industries or joint industrial systems.
At this time, the benefits of joint venture are reflected.
The Red Star Factory did acquire these 16 factories with real money, but part of the value was transferred to the tertiary industry and joint industry.
In other words, the addition of production equipment and technical strength has greatly increased Red Star Factory's shareholding ratio in the joint venture.
It can be regarded as using the money of the joint venture units to help Red Star Factory pay for the expansion of its business.
The economic role of the reservoir that Li Xuewu mentioned in his report at the work meeting was reflected.
As the Red Star Factory's profits rise, the banker takes all the profits. The production capacity will not be wasted, but will be stored in the two large reservoirs of the tertiary industry and the joint industry.
When the Red Star Factory needs development strength or encounters development difficulties, the economy in these pools will feed back to the Red Star Factory.
Having a large number of people has both advantages and disadvantages.
With more people working at the Red Star Factory, the factory area became more lively, and the area outside the factory became a large construction site with all kinds of demolition and construction.
Many workers came out of the workshop and went directly to the construction site, becoming laborers.
The owner of the society is just a brick, and we can move it wherever it is needed.
The engineering machinery donated by the Santaya Group was indeed of great help. The construction of the school progressed very quickly. Almost all the main parts of the teaching buildings have been completed, and only the interiors are waiting to be improved and decorated.
It is now August and school will start on September 1st, so the engineering team only has about half a month at most.
You can't hear or see anything during the day.
But at night, when it is late and quiet, you can still see lights from the direction of the Red Star Factory illuminating the sky when you stand on the roof, and the sounds of construction can be clearly heard.
Working day and night to meet the deadline, the Engineering Office and the engineering team prioritized completing the project before the school opens on September 1st.
The delivery standard is very high. The project is completed, and it takes time to arrange and install teaching aids, tables, chairs, benches, office supplies, doors, windows, glass, etc.
So every day after get off work, Li Xuewu would go to the construction site to take a look.
There are new changes every day, and specific projects are completed and closed every day.
Not only the interior decoration, but also the hardening of the playground, sports facilities, etc. are carried out simultaneously.
Li Xuewu asked Ji Weidong for help and purchased a full set of advanced teaching aids from Gangcheng, but it made the boy very tired.
The goods are already in the warehouse of the Red Star Factory, waiting for the final step of installation.
There is strength in numbers, and we are not afraid of anything.
While building the school, the Red Star Factory was also building a hospital, as well as residential areas, a comprehensive market, and several office buildings for the Red Star Factory.
The main construction project has not yet started, but the underground construction has already begun. The excavated soil is piled up on the bank of Liangma River, very high, like a small hill.
Look at the small hill behind the imperial city. It is actually the earth dug out when the Forbidden City was built. There was no place to put it, so it formed a mountain.
The earth dug out from the Red Star Factory construction site will certainly not be wasted here. Not only does it take up space, it also hinders traffic.
Along the banks of the Liangma River, these earthworks will be used to build dams, widen ditches, fill in low-lying areas, etc.
Big projects and big construction sites are not said for nothing.
Manpower is no longer enough. Dozens of bulldozers are howling day and night. Large shovels and grab hooks are standing at the construction site, digging deep underground to create three-defense projects.
Few people in later generations have heard of the three-defense project, but it was a key task at that time.
Being able to run trucks underground is the standard, and being able to hide artillery and tanks is the foundation.
Li Xuewu meant to make full use of the three-defense projects, apply for special funds, and increase the construction of underground projects.
It will definitely be necessary to use it as a warehouse, parking lot, etc. in the future.
Anyone who has been to Beijing knows how difficult it is to park. This place is right next to the Second Ring Road, just imagine.
Not only do people have great strength in numbers, but their appetite also sounds terrifying.
The Red Star Factory had long been preparing for the merger of sixteen factories and even set up a special account.
But money flows like water, and a company's overall strength and potential are best reflected during its expansion process.
If Red Star Factory hadn't made a lot of money at the beginning of the year, it would have no money to merge with other companies now and would not be able to take care of itself.
Don’t be fooled by the fact that Red Star Factory is doing very well this year; there are special reasons for that.
In fact, the overall environment is very general. The big study has entered its second year, and many lines are being corrected.
But there are still many mistakes that happen, and economic and production problems are particularly serious.
This is also an important reason why Red Star Factory stands out among many industrial brother units.
The higher-ups attach great importance to industrial production, and especially require the emergence of industrial pioneers with special performance and a leading role.
All parts of the country are talking about focusing on ideology and production, and improving industrial productivity.
Li Xuewu, who works in the industrial sector, has a deep understanding of this point.
No matter how strong or how hard the wind blows outside, industrial development remains very stable, especially the workers in the workshop.
They were hardly affected, and the same went for the workers' families, who continued to live their lives as usual.
If you say there are changes on the streets and in life, it seems that there really are some.
-
"Hello, Brother Li..."
It was three o'clock in the afternoon when Li Xuewu came out of the house, having taken a full nap.
At the Moon Gate, he happened to meet Liu Guangfu who lived next door, and the two of them met.
It’s not the first time I’ve seen this. This kid seems like a different person after he came back.
There were no more performances of Flying on the Grass in this yard, and the neighbors no longer talked about and paid attention to him as they did in the past.
When he saw Li Xuewu, he wanted to call him Director Li, but Li Xuewu had reminded him once, so he remembered it this time.
"Finished with the work?"
Li Xuewu waved the palm-leaf fan in his hand, looked at him, nodded and leaned forward.
Liu Guangfu stood there and turned his body in the wrong direction. He asked Li Xuewu to go first and replied, "It's hot, come back to see my mother."
"Okay, your filial piety is commendable—"
Li Xuewu smiled slightly, glanced at him, and then went forward.
Liu Guangfu waited with his head lowered until Li Xuewu passed by, then turned around and walked back home.
Second Aunt's illness has become a chronic disease. Half of her face is drooping and half of her body is numb. Sometimes she is useless.
As for cerebral infarction, which causes mild hemiplegia, it seems that the only way to recover is to take care of the patient, but in fact there is no possibility of recovery.
Before Liu Guangfu came back, Liu Guangtian's condition was already very serious when he was at home. And when Liu Guangqi came back to make trouble, the second aunt's illness was made worse.
Li Xuewu rarely heard people talking on the other side. When he came back to stay for two days, he would stay at home in the front yard or in the outer yard.
He also heard from Shen Guodong that Liu Guangfu's return has helped to support the family.
The year of fighting was not in vain, I finally grew up.
Shen Guodong set up a sewing club with the street office, which specialized in manufacturing labor protection supplies for the Red Star Factory. This was a convenience provided by Li Xuewu.
Following the advice given by Li Xuewu, Shen Guodong installed four sewing machines in the large factory as a starting point.
I heard that you can join a cooperative with your own sewing machine, work as a seamstress, and earn wages.
What’s very special is that there is no salary here, people are paid by piecework and the more you work, the more you earn.
At first, some people did not believe it, until Director Wang took the street officials to visit several households with many children, explained the policy, and provided endorsements and guarantees.
These families also held their noses and moved their sewing machines to the large warehouse where the sewing club was located.
There is no housewife who doesn’t know how to do needlework. She is very good at operating a sewing machine.
After completing a day's work, the street office and the people arranged by Shen Guodong counted the number of pieces together and gave these people processing fees on the spot, which stirred up a hornet's nest.
In Jiaodaokou, every family that had a sewing machine, or any woman or girl who had free time at home, all clamored to join the sewing club.
I only make 72 cents a day, which is more than 20 yuan a month. What do you think this is?
My goodness! The empty warehouse that was originally used for horse racing was full in an instant. People from other streets also came in through connections, but Shen Guodong tried his best to stop them from entering.
The warehouse compound allocated by the street for the recycling station was finally put to use. One of the large warehouses became the headquarters of a sewing club. Every day, young girls, young wives, old ladies and old women came here to work.
If Shen Guodong hadn't been afraid of a fire and it being unsafe at night, these people would have wanted to work 24 hours a day.
When the sewing machine starts turning, it will produce a lot of cash.
After listening to what Li Xuewu said, Shen Guodong took the initiative to find Liu Guangfu to talk. This kid also has some ambition.
I heard that Shen Guodong arranged a young boy, a gangster released from the Artillery Bureau, to be the technical manager of the sewing club. The girls were embarrassed to say anything, but they refused to do it.
They were all clamoring, seven were dissatisfied, and eight were indignant.
Liu Guangfu was also very tolerant. He said nothing and just worked sewing with these old women for a whole day.
When they counted the pieces in the evening, these people were dumbfounded. Liu Guangfu produced more than three times more pieces than them.
If you say there is cheating, that is impossible. We are all in the same warehouse and everyone is keeping a close eye on everything.
There was no cheating or deception. How come his production volume is so much higher than that of others?
In wrestling, they couldn't beat the boy, so they gave in. But when they lost to a young boy in sewing machine competition, they felt embarrassed.
Snap——
Especially the old ladies who shouted the loudest in the morning, now they are inside, their faces are red.
Two dollars and eighty cents a day!
When they saw Liu Guangfu taking two yuan and eighty cents from Shen Guodong, these people became furious.
This was the case on the first day, and on the second day someone started to compete with Liu Guangfu in operating the sewing machine.
But by the next day, no one could reach even one dollar, let alone two dollars and eighty cents.
Finally, someone couldn't sit still anymore. On the third day when work started, Liu Guangfu sat down and a group of people gathered around him.
Please start your show!
Would Liu Guangfu do this?
Thinking back to the past…it doesn’t matter if I didn’t think about it back then.
I saw him just fiddling with the flywheel, stepping on it, and then it was like stepping on a Hot Wheels.
He didn't seem nervous, nor did he seem panicky. The pedals and flywheels under his feet were about to smoke, but his hands were flying above the table, moving the cloth in an orderly manner.
It was so easy, so grateful, as if I could do it with my eyes closed.
So powerful!
Where did you learn this technique?
Ahem, it’s not Lanxiang anyway!
Two dollars and eighty points, two dollars and eighty points, two dollars and eighty points...that's more than eighty points a month, the same amount as a section-level cadre.
The old ladies at the scene were not calm, not because they were jealous to death, but because their daughters were still single.
What? You've been in jail?
They have already reformed. It’s not that they like the money, they just like the experience.
In fact, this was the strategy that Shen Guodong taught Liu Guangfu, deliberately luring these people into the trap.
If he can't surpass them in technology, how can a young man like Liu Guangfu manage so many old women?
Liu Guangfu did not know how to earn piece-rate wages, so Shen Guodong paid him 60 yuan a month for management work.
Someone asked, if you don’t want to earn money at 80, why not try earning money at 60?
There is no need to discuss this issue. Everyone here knows what to choose.
Liu Guangfu took office on the third day and became the head of this sewing company.
He has a group of old ladies and young girls under him, and they have definitely reached the peak of their lives.
The reason why Shen Guodong hired him was also because of his performance. He did not spend the money he earned on causing trouble, but instead thought about treating his mother's illness.
And if you have a filial heart, you will never do anything that is harmful to others.
