In the Office of the Executive Vice President of Hongqi Steel, the heating has been turned off and the air conditioner has not been installed. The room is as cold as an ice cellar. The administration department sent an electric heater, but Mu Lianheng didn't even open the box and was still wearing his singlet.
Shirt is sitting behind the desk working on documents.
The room was very cold, but it made people's minds clearer. Mu Lianheng signed his name on a document and strolled to the window to admire the pot of daffodils he had brought. The room had been fully heated a few days ago.
The narcissus did not bloom that time, but today the heating was turned off, but a flawless white flower quietly bloomed.
Suddenly there was a hurried knock on the door, and the administrative assistant walked in and said, "Mr. Mu, it's not good. I don't know who organized the waiting workers, but they all went back to work."
Mu Lianheng was startled: "When did it happen?"
"It probably started last night."
"Then why are you reporting it now?"
"These workers hide everything from us. It is very difficult to grasp the situation on the front line. This morning, a large number of workers blocked the door of the administrative department and asked me to help them solve heating and food problems. They came to my house to eat if they couldn't eat.
There are a lot of trivial neighborhood disputes and so on, and I’m almost exhausted.”
Mu Lianheng tapped his knuckles on the table and fell into thought.
Immediately afterwards, the financial assistant also came in and reported: "The payment for goods from Chenguang Factory has been delayed a few days ago. When I went to collect the payment today, they said that it had been paid, and they also showed me the stamped receipt and check stub, but I didn't."
The payment was never received."
"Have you checked your bank account?" Mu Lianheng asked in a deep voice.
The financial assistant spread his hands: "I checked, and the credit union also said that no check came into the account. I suspect that Hongqi Factory has a secret account in addition to the original basic ICBC account."
Mu Lianheng thought quickly. What the financial assistant said was not unreasonable. For a decades-old enterprise like Hongqi Iron and Steel Works, secret accounts and small vaults are absolutely indispensable. How could a few fledgling college graduates win the battle?
Through these old rivers and lakes.
After Xuanwu took over the Hongqi Factory, he immediately sealed the financial account books and changed the financial person in charge. However, the only thing left to them was a mere 50,000 yuan in the basic account. As a large-scale company
For a steel company, this amount of money was barely enough for office expenses. In order to carry out work quickly, Xuanwu Group had to pay out of its own pocket and took out 500,000 yuan to pay for various expenses.
Last month's wages should have been borne by the factory, but because there was no money in the account, accounts receivable could not be collected, and Xuanwu Group funded the payment of the wages of 5,000 workers. This is an astronomical sum.
, Mu Lianheng’s hands were shaking when he signed, these old foxes from state-owned enterprises are so cunning!
"We must get to the bottom of it. Chenguang Factory and Hongqi Factory have been counterparts for many years. There must be something fishy between them!" Mu Lianheng said, patting the table, his face a little distorted.
"And..." the financial assistant murmured.
"What else? Say it all at once!" No matter how well-educated Mu Lianheng was, he was still a little impatient.
"There is no money in the account. The self-employed businessman who sells scrap metal is still waiting to get paid. Upstream customers are also waiting for settlement. There are also a group of retired workers holding hospital bills blocking the door of the finance department asking for reimbursement. I really can't cope with it.
"The financial assistant took out a tissue and wiped the sweat on his face. In the freezing weather, he was actually sweating.
"Are you the only one in the finance department? Why don't the others help?"
The financial assistant smiled bitterly and said: "They are all in the same group. How could they help me before they could even see the joke."
The administrative assistant also echoed: "The old people in the office often whisper behind my back. We have been isolated. Mr. Mu, you need to come up with a plan quickly."
Mu Lianheng was distraught. Before he became the vice president of Red Steel, he was very ambitious and thought he would succeed immediately. Unexpectedly, the start was quite smooth, and within a few days he fell into the quagmire of the People's War.
"This group of old state-owned enterprises are not very capable of doing business, but their ability to cause trouble is absolutely top-notch." Mu Lianheng sighed and admitted that he had underestimated his opponents. The level of intrigue among state-owned enterprises that have been established for decades is definitely higher than that of Xuanwu Group.
Emerging private enterprises are several levels higher than others, and they are really naive.
Seeing that it was almost twelve o'clock, Mu Lianheng stood up and said, "Let's go eat first."
He came to the entrance of the small cafeteria with a few trusted assistants. When he saw the young assistants stationed at the Hongqi Factory of the Xuanwu Group standing blankly at the door, Mu Lianheng scolded: "What are you doing standing here!"
One person pointed inside without saying anything. When Mu Lianheng stepped forward and took a look, he was dumbfounded.
The small canteen was bustling with people, mainly young and middle-aged female workers, with some children and elderly people taking out. Some people used the stainless steel plates provided in the canteen, and more people used their own lunch boxes and enamel jars. Everyone devoured their food.
, as if there was no one around, the sound of chirping was like thousands of little paws scratching Mu Lianheng's heart.
This is such a cruel trick. If you ask me to stay on duty, I will come to your house to eat. I really do what I say.
Several female workers walked past Mu Lianheng while holding stainless steel lunch boxes filled with vegetables and rice, talking and laughing without looking at him, as if the executive deputy was like air. Mu Lianheng suddenly felt a fever on his face.
The workers are obviously demonstrating.
"Starting from tomorrow, the canteen will stop serving food." Mu Lianheng said a word, turned around and left.
Next to the small canteen is the notice board of the smelting workshop. On it is a large-character poster written with a brush on a newspaper. The black and ferocious fonts are shocking: Xuanwu get out of the Hongqi Factory!!!
The assistants were silent, but Mu Lianheng stopped and watched, with a sneer on his lips.
Back in the office, Mu Lianheng made a call to the power distribution room: "Stop the power supply in several workshops that have announced production cuts and shutdowns but are still producing."
"A sudden power outage will cause huge losses." The person in charge of the power distribution room was extremely shocked by this order. Two power supply lines were set up in the factory to ensure the power supply. The consequences of the power outage are extremely serious and will cause steel
If water cannot be transported out, the entire furnace will be scrapped.
"I will be responsible if something goes wrong." Mu Lianheng put down the phone.
Suddenly, the phone rang rapidly again. Mu Lianheng grabbed the receiver and said, "I told you that I will be responsible!...Mr. Chen, it's nothing. An employee was making trouble just now. What instructions do you have?"
Chen Runing's voice on the phone was a little tired: "Xiao Mu, the pace of work is going to speed up. The steel plant is a polluting enterprise. We must respond to the provincial party committee and the provincial government's call for energy conservation, emission reduction, and green industry, and close down the polluting workshops as soon as possible.
And turn."
"Understood, please rest assured, Mr. Chen, we promise to complete the task."
"I just arrived at Jiangbei Branch. I will go to Chenguang Factory in the afternoon to discuss the reorganization. You can come with me."
"OK."
…
Full of worries, Mu Lianheng didn't even eat lunch. He took a bus to the branch headquarters and accompanied Mr. Chen to the Chenguang Factory to discuss the reorganization. In previous contacts, Mr. Lu from the Chenguang Factory showed great enthusiasm for the reorganization.
and interest, plus Chen Runing has done a lot of work in private, so this trip is determined to win.
In Mr. Chen's car, Mu Lianheng introduced what happened in the factory recently. After listening, Chen Runing pondered for a moment and said, "Xiao Mu, have you ever heard of the idiom that a mantis' arm is like a car?"
"But……"
"Originally, we planned to adopt the strategy of boiling frogs in warm water, but now that funds are tight, we must speed up the pace. Tactically, you must pay attention to them, because they will come up with various ways to deal with you with the cunning of small citizens, which will disgust you.
, but we must strategically despise them, because they can never get rid of the things of the petty bourgeoisie, and they can be easily eliminated by dividing and disintegrating and increasing high-pressure policies.”
"I understand." Mu Lianheng said, and then hesitated: "Will the reorganization of Chenguang Factory be affected?"
"No, Director Lu is a smart man." Chen Runing smiled confidently. Chenguang Factory is completely different from Hongqi Factory. The plates are small and easy to operate. Lu Tianming has absolute authority in the factory. As long as he is dealt with, nothing can be done.
Besides, the affordable villa specially provided for outstanding talents was given to Lu Tianming, and he accepted it. There was no reason to interfere with this issue.
When the car arrived at the Chenguang Factory, it felt really different from the Hongqi Factory. There were militiamen in camouflage uniforms at the gate. They strictly checked the documents before letting the car in. The group came to the conference room and sat down. The staff poured tea and smoked cigarettes. After a while, Lu
When dawn arrived, he shook hands with everyone, exchanged greetings and took their seats. Chen Runing got straight to the point and said, "Mr. Lu, how are things considered?"
Lu Tianming said: "The relocation of Chenguang Factory is imperative. As a heavy industrial enterprise, it is obviously inappropriate to continue to stay in the downtown area. At the same time, we also welcome investment from all aspects. In addition to your Xuanwu Group, there are several other companies
The company is also considering injecting capital into our Chenguang Factory, but no matter what, the leadership of the Chenguang Factory must still be in the hands of the workers' conference."
Chen Runing didn't say anything for a long time. He was actually fooled by Lu Tianming, an old fox. After playing for a long time, everyone in front of him was pretending to be a snake. However, he did not get angry in person, but asked calmly: "I don't know what Mr. Lu said.
Who are the other companies in China? How do they compare in strength to our Xuanwu Group?"
Lu Tianming smiled heartily: "The more powerful company currently is Norinco. I think their strength should be no less than that of Xuanwu Group."
Chen Runing's face turned blue and white, and he stopped talking.
Mu Lianheng also took a breath of cold air. Norinco is a giant in the military industry. If you pull out a single hair, it will be thicker than the thighs of Xuanwu Group. The two are not on the same level at all. Let alone Mr. Chen, it is Mr. Chen.
If the general backstage comes forward, no one will betray you.
"So, what is the opinion of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission?" Chen Runing regretted saying this. If the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission has any opinion, can it still object?
Lu Tianming smiled and said: "Our Chenguang Factory was a military industrial enterprise in the early years and was managed by the General Logistics Department. Now it can be regarded as returning to our parents' home. Naturally, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission also strongly supports it."
"It's such a pity. I hope we can work together again next time." Chen Runing stood up and left gracefully. Lu Tianming also stood up and said, "I believe there will be opportunities for cooperation soon."
The two shook hands and said goodbye. Chen Runing returned to the car and his face turned ugly: "Lu Tianming, how dare you play tricks on me."
Mu Lianheng said: "Chenguang Factory secretly settled the more than 700,000 yuan in steel payment to the black account of Hongqi Factory. The two families are clearly in collusion."
Chen Runing's handsome face was a little distorted: "I want to see what other tricks they have."
…
In the conference room of Chenguang Factory, Liu Ziguang and Wei Shumin opened the door and walked in. Lu Tianming said, "You all heard the conversation just now, right? The struggle has just begun."
