After Director Hu hung up the phone, a joyful look appeared on his face. He slammed the table and shouted loudly: "We can be saved. We can be saved. Our machinery factory can be saved! If this project is successful, by the end of the year, everyone in our factory will be saved."
Every worker gets double wages!”
At this time, the several factory leaders sitting in the office looked at each other, wondering what happened to Director Hu.
Just now, they were still discussing how to solve the problem of workers' wages this month.
The ancestors of Jingcheng Machinery Factory were also wealthy.
As an old factory, the first tractor production line introduced was placed in the Jingcheng Machinery Factory.
At that time, tractors were extremely scarce in the country.
The Jingcheng Machinery Factory started working at full capacity and produced thousands of tractors within a year, making outstanding contributions to agricultural production.
Of course, Jingcheng Machinery Factory received praise and awards from superiors.
At that time, wages in their factory were the highest in Beijing, and workers received two yuan more per month than workers in textile factories.
The little girls in the capital are proud to marry the workers of the machinery factory in the capital.
Times have changed, and more than 10 years have passed, and a solid industrial foundation has been gradually laid in China.
Tractor factories were established in batches. The Beijing Machinery Factory was located in Beijing, so some of its production lines were relocated.
The production lines can be relocated, but the workers have already settled in the capital.
Their wives and children are all here, and there is no way to follow the production line to work in the new tractor factory.
At this time, the number of workers in the capital was already saturated.
It is also difficult for them to transfer to other factories.
So I can only live with this old factory.
Director Hu is the first batch of workers at the Jingcheng Machinery Factory.
He watched the Jingcheng Machinery Factory grow from small to large.
I have a deep relationship with the factory.
When the old factory director was transferred, the superiors asked Jingcheng Machinery Factory to recommend internal cadres as factory directors.
Several deputy factory directors realized that this burden was too heavy.
The Jingcheng Machinery Factory was in a mess at this time. The workers of this era were not as easy to talk to as the workers of later generations.
If future generations of workers cannot be paid their wages, all you need to do is give them a free note. Next year they will still go to the factory to work conscientiously. After all, there are so many people that if you don't do it, there will be people who will do it.
Workers in this era regarded themselves as the owners of the factory.
The owner has been working hard in the factory for a month, but he can't get any salary. Is this ridiculous?
Their tempers are also not very good.
After their wages were owed, they gathered around the factory director's door and blocked him in the office.
The last old factory director retired early because he was stuck in the office for four or five days and fell ill due to shock and fear.
Anyone who takes over this mess will have to face these angry workers.
Finally, Director Hu, who was the workshop director at the time, bravely stood up.
After becoming the director of the factory, he cut off many temporary labor projects and adopted measures to increase revenue and reduce expenditure. On the one hand, he went to ministries and commissions to run projects to build relationships. On the other hand, he encouraged the leaders and employees of the whole factory to be diligent and frugal.
Through these two methods, the machinery factory barely survived.
but.
For a factory, no orders means no lifeline.
With the closure of the tractor production line, the Jingcheng Machinery Factory once again fell into difficulties.
Seeing that the end of the year was coming, Factory Director Hu asked the clerks in the finance department to make a fuss. It turned out that the funds in the factory were not enough to pay the workers next month's wages.
Even if all the factory leaders do not receive wages, it will not be enough for the workers.
As the Chinese New Year is approaching, the workers rely solely on their wages to celebrate the New Year. Once they don't receive their wages, you can imagine their anger.
so.
The main leaders in the factory gathered in Director Hu's office for a meeting.
The leaders were shocked when they heard Factory Director Hu's words. The first person to react was Section Chief Zhang of the Finance Department.
Section Chief Zhang raised his hand and said: "Factory Director, if you can't raise the wages of the workers, don't worry, people can still be suffocated to death. How about I send you to the hospital now and ask a doctor to check your body."
You are the anchor of our machinery factory. If you fall, our machinery factory will be completely destroyed."
"Old Zhang, what are you talking about? I have gone through such hard years, and am I still afraid of something like this? The reason why I said we are saved is because Director Li Weidong of the poverty alleviation workshop of the steel rolling mill is coming to visit our machinery factory
!" Even if Director Hu was misunderstood, he was not angry at this time, he said with a smile.
Hear this.
The leaders in the office suddenly took a breath of cold air.
"Li Weidong, Li Weidong of the steel rolling mill, is he the same Li Weidong who made the solar panels?"
"Who else could be so famous besides him?"
"Oh my god, he actually came to visit our machinery factory. Does he want to hand over new projects to our machinery factory?"
"It shouldn't be possible. Li Weidong has a very good relationship with the machine repair shop. If there is any new project, he will definitely hand it over to the machine repair shop first."
"I think this is 90% reliable. As a leader, Li Weidong doesn't have that spare time. He must be looking for a place where he can design and produce machinery when he visits other places, and we are the No. 1 Machinery Factory in Beijing."
…
After listening to the discussion, Director Hu waved his hand and said: "To tell you the truth, Director Yang of the steel rolling mill and I are old friends.
The news that Li Weidong came to visit just now was told to me by the director of the steel rolling mill, Lao Yang.
When I was a guest at their home a while ago, I learned from factory director Lao Yang that Li Weidong has now embarked on a new project.
This project is larger and more difficult than the last solar panel project.
This time Li Weidong came to our factory, he must be looking for partners.
"
As he spoke, his face became serious.
"This is an opportunity for our No. 1 Machinery Factory in Beijing.
If we can get the opportunity to cooperate with the poverty alleviation workshop of the steel rolling mill, our machinery factory may be able to come back to life just like the machine repair shop.
So for the future of our machinery factory and the wages of the workers, you must perform well tomorrow.
Anyone who dares to slip up will delay the cooperation with Comrade Li Weidong.
Then don’t blame me for being rude."
The majestic words echoed in the office.
All the factory leaders cheered up.
As a leader in a machinery factory, no one is more aware of the importance of this cooperation to the machinery factory.
In order to welcome Li Weidong's arrival, Director Hu also set up a special welcoming team.
He serves as the team leader for the welcoming team, and the two deputy factory directors serve as deputy team leaders.
And a fund of 10 yuan was allocated for the reception.
After the meeting.
The factory leaders returned to their respective offices and conveyed the news of Li Weidong's upcoming arrival.
A passionate and generous voice also sounded from the loudspeaker in the venue: "Comrades workers, please pay attention, comrades workers, please pay attention.
Tomorrow our machinery factory will welcome a heavyweight guest.
His arrival is related to the future of our machinery factory and whether all our workers can be paid on time next month.
Therefore, all workers are asked to cheer up and treat this task as a war, a war that can only be won but not defeated.
Especially the workers in the machine repair shop.
After you go back tonight, you must put on clean clothes when you go to work tomorrow.
Don't be sloppy and let the distinguished guests laugh.
And when you work tomorrow, you must be polite and don't make random jokes.
If anyone dares to cause trouble or offend the distinguished guests, the factory director will deal with him or her."
The workers in the workshop were working leisurely.
Everyone was shocked when they heard the broadcast.
"Why are there VIPs coming to our shabby factory like Jingcheng Machinery Factory? Why are there VIPs?"
"Maybe it's a new project run by Factory Director Hu. You also know that our Factory Director Hu often goes to ministries and commissions to promote projects during this period."
"It would be great if there were really new projects. Now I can only get half of my salary every month, and the payment is not on time. My wife has had trouble with me several times. I should have just followed the production line."
move."
"Then why don't you go? Aren't you reluctant to leave the capital?"
"You are right. Although we have a hard life, we are under the emperor's feet!"
"Stop talking about this. You have all heard the content of the broadcast just now. You must put on clean clothes tomorrow and cheer up. You must not embarrass our Beijing Machinery Factory."
Although the workers listened to the radio, they were still dubious.
Just when they walked out of the workshop after get off work, I immediately believed it.
I saw several officers from the Publicity Department carrying leather buckets and painting white ash on the wall.
Jingcheng Machinery Factory was renovated from an old factory yard, and the walls are in tatters.
In the past, when the machinery factory was selling red goods, the factory leaders did not allocate funds to repair the fence.
Later, the Jingcheng Machinery Factory encountered difficulties, let alone repairing the fence.
The wall has actually started to be painted now, which means that a distinguished guest will definitely be coming tomorrow.
The workers also cheered up and secretly warned themselves not to cause trouble tomorrow.
Li Weidong didn't know that he had caused so much trouble to a factory he chose at random.
At this time, Li Weidong had returned to the laboratory.
The researchers are drawing pictures according to the requirements assigned by Li Weidong.
They were all sitting at their desks attentively, and even if Li Weidong went in, they didn't notice.
Li Weidong walked around the laboratory and nodded with satisfaction.
The researchers he selected this time, Siyuan, are all freshly graduated college students, but all of them have real abilities.
Especially Comrade Zhou Jing.
He is indeed an outstanding student of Beijing University.
It only took one day to solve a difficulty in the drawing.
Seeing the time to get off work, Li Weidong clapped his hands and said: "Okay everyone, don't be busy anymore. You have worked hard all day. It's time to rest. Work is important, but your body is more important."
These words may not sound like much in later generations, but they are still rare in this era.
This era advocates hard work and Dora runs fast.
Rest does not exist at all.
Especially those researchers with important responsibilities can work continuously in the laboratory for more than a month.
Zhou Jing couldn't help but give Li Weidong a high look.
As a researcher, no one understands the importance of a balance between work and rest better than him.
The research project is not about production or growing crops.
Efficiency is far more important than time.
If your head is buzzing, you can ask a researcher to sit there all day long and he won't be able to solve a single problem.
Being able to say these words shows that Li Weidong is not a layman.
Zhou Jing stood up and said: "Okay, everyone, please stop. That's it for today. We will continue to study the next problem tomorrow."
The researchers stood up and prepared to go back to their dormitories.
At this time, Li Weidong waved his hand and stopped them again.
"I have now identified a factory. Maybe it won't be long before our project becomes formal, and everyone will be very busy by then.
In order to wish the project success, I decided to treat everyone to a meal."
I wish the project success.
This sentence sounds strange.
But the researchers in the laboratory all jumped up with excitement.
Just kidding, if someone refuses to go to dinner, then they really have become nerds.
"I didn't expect that Director Li would be a very resourceful person."
"Have you not heard yet? Director Li invented the solar panels."
"With this project in hand, Director Li is naturally very wealthy."
The researchers followed Li Weidong to the canteen of the steel rolling mill.
At this time, Shazhu was busy in the cafeteria. When he heard the footsteps outside, he suddenly became angry.
Silly Zhu is now the team leader of the canteen.
It can be said that the entire canteen is his own.
In order to ensure the cleanliness of the canteen, Shazhu specifically stipulated that no unrelated persons are allowed to enter the kitchen during working hours.
But now when I hear footsteps outside, it seems that there are more than just one or two people.
He stopped and turned around and shouted to Ma Hua: "Mahua, stop chopping vegetables. Someone broke in outside. Go and chase them away."
"Don't worry, master, no one dares to cause trouble in your canteen now."
The kitchen knife chopping on the chopping board, Ma Hua turned around and left the canteen.
But not even a minute passed before MCA walked in again.
Silly Zhu became angry now and shouted at MCA: "Mahua, what are you doing? Didn't I ask you to drive them all away?"
At this time Li Weidong came in and asked: "Silly Zhu, who are you trying to chase away?"
Silly Zhu felt something was wrong when he heard the sound. When he turned around and saw that it was Li Weidong, he quickly greeted him with a smile: "Brother Weidong. Oh my, I just thought there were a few thieves outside. If I had known it was
If you come, I will definitely greet you personally."
"You kid, as your official position grows, so does your temper. Stop talking about these things and just watch and arrange a few tables of meals for us."
Li Weidong said this and pointed at the researchers behind him: "These researchers are all cultural people. Next time they go to the cafeteria to get food, you must not give them a spoon. I still expect them to do research."
Hearing this, Shazhu quickly said: "That's not possible, absolutely not possible. The person in charge of cooking right now is Fatty. If he dares to weigh the spoon, I will deal with him."
