This year, Cao Shujie was as generous as ever in giving out red envelopes for the holiday, giving each employee 500 yuan. Every employee who received the red envelope was very happy.
They seemed to have forgotten the gossip from years ago, and looked at the red envelopes in their hands with great joy.
Cao Shujie took all the company's managers to visit all three factories and personally distributed red envelopes to every employee.
During this process, Cao Shujie would sincerely send a Spring Festival blessing.
At this time of year, employees know very well that, not to mention far away places, most factories in Qingshi Town do not have so-called red envelopes for the Spring Festival start-up. Even those who give red envelopes only give them 5 yuan or 10 yuan.
Think about the money.
There are even companies that only offer you one dollar.
This is the only company that offers at least 200 yuan like their boss, and now offers 500 yuan.
Xuemeng Food Factory takes care of its employees in every aspect, and because of this, most people who work here cherish this hard-won job opportunity.
But just as Cao Shujie stopped Wang Zhifeng alone a few years ago and told him, maybe because the environment is so good, the salary is too high, and the benefits provided make everyone satisfied, some people just want to live a 'retirement' life early.
I thought it wouldn’t matter if I worked less at Xuemeng Food Factory. The worst I could do was make less money and slowly retire at the age of 60...
Cao Shujie didn't notice this situation at first, but he often went to the workshop and after doing it more times, he accidentally discovered this strange phenomenon.
At that time, Cao Shujie realized that this situation must be severely punished.
If it is not dealt with, or if it is dealt with very lightly, it will cause others to follow suit, and by the time this problem occurs in a large area, it will be too late.
If we want to deal with it at that time, unless there is a large-scale replacement, the losses to the company will be even greater.
After giving out the red envelopes, it was already past lunch time. Cao Shujie took the company's managers above the supervisory level to have dinner at the Fuxing Hotel in the center of the town.
During the meal, Cao Shujie did not mention the matter he had discussed with Wang Zhifeng years ago, but because Wang Zhifeng had mentioned it to the department managers in private, everyone knew it.
Some managers were particularly nervous at this time.
Fortunately, Cao Shujie did not raise any discipline-related issues until the end of the dinner, which made them relieved.
I also had some luck in my heart, wondering if this rumor came out years ago just to warn everyone and make everyone be more honest.
The boss is so busy and has a lot to do. Maybe he has forgotten about it now?
For employees in various departments, their feelings are not particularly deep.
After returning to their respective posts, they continued to be busy.
At around 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the managers of each department in the company received an email, stating that the company would hold an all-hands meeting on the eighth day of the first lunar month, requiring all departments to attend except those who were on duty in production.
This is normal. The company holds all-staff meetings every quarter, half a year, and throughout the year.
Wang Zhifeng, the senior manager of the human resources department, arranged for people to decorate the venue. At the same time, he reviewed the talent reserve lists submitted by each department before the year, reviewed them one last time, and then submitted them to the boss Cao Shujie.
But when Wang Zhifeng submitted it this time, he divided the list into two, one with many names, and the other with only three names.
Cao Shujie picked up the list of only three names and asked Wang Zhifeng what it meant.
"Boss, according to our investigation, these three people have serious disciplinary violations. Based on all aspects of evaluation, I think they are not qualified for promotion." Wang Zhifeng said.
After various departments submitted the list, Wang Zhifeng arranged for people to conduct thorough investigations from various aspects.
This time was different from the past. Wang Zhifeng did not dare to be careless. If he had not investigated, he would have signed and confirmed it. If these people found out any problems later, regardless of whether he was responsible or not, he would first leave it in the boss's mind.
The next impression is that the work is not rigorous.
Coupled with the words that the boss specially said to him when he was left behind before the holiday, Wang Zhifeng thought about it carefully and felt that the boss would not suddenly say such words for no reason.
Therefore, Wang Zhifeng is very rigorous in this round of award submissions and talent reserve plan submission lists.
"What kind of disciplinary violation?" Cao Shujie kept staring at the names on the list.
Wang Zhifeng told Cao Shujie the results of the investigation.
After hearing this, Cao Shujie nodded and said to Wang Zhifeng: "Manager Wang, please go back first. I'll call you if anything happens."
Wang Zhifeng left Cao Shujie's office, came downstairs and returned to his own office.
After sitting for a few minutes, Wang Zhifeng got up and left the office again, going to inspect the factory.
During the inspection, Wang Zhifeng focused most of his attention on the disciplinary issues mentioned by his boss.
He felt that this incident was also his fault. For a long time, nothing very bad had happened in the company. Everyone felt that there were no big problems, so they ignored the development of some things.
He also overestimates human nature.
"Manager Wang, Manager Wang." As Wang Zhifeng was walking in front, someone called him from behind.
Wang Zhifeng turned around and saw that the person calling him was Xu Cizong, manager of the security administration department: "Manager Xu, why are you here?"
"I also went out to look around to see if there were any safety hazards at the scene."
Speaking of this, Xu Cizong suddenly said: "Manager Wang, why do I feel that the atmosphere in the factory is not right?"
Wang Zhifeng looked at him and smiled: "Manager Xu, what's wrong?"
"I just feel that the atmosphere is a bit weird recently. Is there something going on?" Xu Cizong asked.
Wang Zhifeng shook his head and said to Xu Cizong: "It's nothing serious."
Xu Cizong heard some signs: "No big deal? There is still something wrong."
"It's about discipline. Didn't I tell you before the holiday?" Wang Zhifeng said.
I had no intention of hiding this matter.
When he mentioned this, Xu Cizong immediately remembered what Wang Zhifeng told them before the holiday. He remembered that Wang Zhifeng also said at that time that those who violated disciplines seriously would be expelled.
After the Spring Festival, Xu Cizong almost forgot about this matter. He thought quickly in his mind and suddenly asked: "Manager Wang, are there really people who have been fired this time?"
Wang Zhifeng didn't say anything.
If you talk too much at this time, it will easily lead to extraneous matters. When the news reaches the boss's ears, it will be detrimental to him in doing things.
But the more Wang Zhifeng behaved like this, the more Xu Cizong felt the seriousness of the matter.
"Manager Wang, is there anyone from our department?" Xu Cizong asked again.
"Manager Xu, to be honest, this matter was arranged by the boss himself, and I'm not very clear about the specific situation." Wang Zhifeng said.
Hearing what Wang Zhifeng said, Xu Cizong was a little unsure.
But he realized that the staff meeting the day after tomorrow would not go so well.
At that time, something might really happen that surprises everyone.
Thinking of this, Xu Cizong gave up the idea of continuing the inspection. He told Wang Zhifeng to go back to the office first.
When it was almost time to get off work, all employees working the night shift went to the leaders of each department to receive their start-up red envelopes.
Cao Shujie also drove back to Caojiazhuang at this time.
When he came back, he saw Mengmeng and Ruirui, two siblings, running back and forth in the yard. When he came back, the two siblings ran towards him together.
Cao Yirui spoke with a very aggrieved expression: "Dad, my sister won't buy me toys."
"What toy?" Cao Shujie didn't respond.
Cao Yirui stammered and complained to his father. The more anxious he became, the more unclear he became.
Cao Shujie became more and more confused after hearing this. He turned to look at his daughter: "Mengmeng, what toy?"
Mengmeng stuck out her tongue and said, "I gave my brother all his red envelopes, and I didn't ask for any of his red envelopes, so I don't need to buy him toys."
When she said this, Cao Shujie immediately remembered what happened during the Chinese New Year.
Sensing Mengmeng saw that there was no benefit, so she returned her brother's red envelope in an attempt to get away with it.
But Mengmeng didn't expect that her brother would admit his death and pass the red envelope that his sister returned to him to his mother for safekeeping. He also continued to ask for toys from his sister, and still asked for several toys.
"You deserve it." After Cao Shujie thought about it, he rolled his eyes at his daughter. This was purely his own fault.
The next day, Cao Shujie went to the company to stay for another day, and the financial manager Hu Youcai came over to tell him the financial status of last year.
Looking at the data items in the report, Cao Shujie was generally very satisfied.
On this day, Shi Jingxiu, senior manager of the production department, and Guan Boyong, senior manager of the sales department, also came to Cao Shujie's office to ask for instructions on the work and the next work arrangements.
Each person communicated for more than half an hour.
Employees don't feel it deeply at this time, but managers in all departments feel this tense atmosphere.
Let them feel like the calm before the storm.
Some people feel very uneasy in their hearts. They are thinking that if something happens this time, it must not happen to them.
Over at the Qingshi Town Government, Luo Ningyou, a senior official of the Qingshi Town Party, also just came to work today.
The new year has begun, and Luo Ningyou has also changed into new clothes, preparing to welcome new changes.
He has received news that Qingshi Town is likely to be designated as an important economic development town under Pingyuan County this year, which also means that if the tone of this matter is set, he may take this further.
This is a good thing for him, and it is also something Luo Ningyou has been looking forward to.
With no connections at home and no connections in this area, Luo Ningyou was promoted to deputy director in his 40s, largely because of the rapid economic development of Qingshi Town in recent years.
But this kind of thing cannot be said. His predecessor Liu Furong always wanted to use this light to ascend in Qingshi Town, but there was no movement.
Now it's his turn.
Luo Ningyou is even more envious of Shi Xiangdong, who succeeds him. That guy is only 38 years old this year. If Qingshi Town's promotion to half a rank becomes a foregone conclusion, Shi Xiangdong, the mayor of Qingshi Town, will also be promoted one step further and will not be 40 years old yet.
Luo Ningyou thinks that the bright future he has as a deputy division mayor is simply unimaginable.
