Chapter 1913 Go to the directly affiliated factory
Yang Mingzhi planned to turn Factory 835 into a huge laboratory. Umov understood this explanation.
"Okay, more new weapons? You already have ideas." Umov asked curiously.
"certainly!"
"Oh?" Umov looked up at Yang Mingzhi standing next to him with expectant eyes, "Comrade Berekov, can you tell me something?"
"Yes. For example, we can make our rocket remotely controlled, so that we can control its flight and watch its trajectory with a telescope until it hits a running German tank. We can even install a remote-controlled detonation device,
It also has an airburst effect, like a shrapnel,"
"Wonderful!" Umov subconsciously slapped the table and stood up on the spot. Then his mood suddenly cooled down. He couldn't help but question: "This... sounds too incredible. Is it really possible? You said it, just like an ordinary person.
Erner's novel."
"It should be possible." Yang Mingzhi said calmly, as if this calmness was confirmation of the "prediction", "I will seek technical support from the Academy of Sciences, and I am confident that I can complete it."
"Then I would like to congratulate you in advance on the success of your research and development."
"I will succeed. Next..." Yang Mingzhi looked at Umov, "I am very anxious. I must go to see my factory in the afternoon. But I am very unfamiliar with the situation there."
"I understand." Umov patted Yang Mingzhi on the shoulder, "In recent days, many factories have been built in the city, and they produce all kinds of things. Haha, there is also a factory specializing in the production of canned fish and meat. Once these factories are completed
, I will personally inspect it. In the future, I will also pay attention to their production capacity, fund usage, and investigate whether there is corruption. Now that you are back, I will personally take you to your factory this afternoon. What do you think?
!”
"Ah! Is this really okay?"
"Of course, this is one of my duties. Just like this, after we have lunch in the cafeteria, we will set off immediately."
For Umov, he was accustomed to the office where he had been working for several years, and even though he was promoted, he still did not move out of here.
He took off the "Mayor's Office" sign and put it on the "Governor's Office" sign.
After some personnel changes, Umov not only did not plan to change to another office building, but also moved many staff members from the previous Oblast Soviet office building to his old building.
In this way, the external propaganda is to streamline the team and save expenses, and the saved funds are used for military production, thus gaining a good reputation of being thrifty and loyal.
What about the reality? Umov is still reluctant to part with his old office, let alone the senior cooks in the office building’s canteen. Once people get used to the current life, they are always reluctant to move out suddenly, not to mention the fact that this office building carries
He has more than ten years of work experience.
Umov has long been accustomed to this place. Unless his superiors give him an order to work west of the Ural Mountains, he will always stay in Novosibirsk, in his dear office, in front of his dear old desk, holding his
His old fountain pen and inkpot worked until the end of his life.
After all, in this era, Stalin himself consolidated and improved the cadre system established by Lenin.
The current Soviet Union implements the "cadre appointment system", which divides the appointment of cadres into three types. The first type is the appointment personally authorized by Stalin himself, such as the new appointment of the old governor of Novosibirsk State, which is the so-called first type
.
The second type is the recommendation of local and various departments. Whether to support the appointment is reviewed by the relevant departments and handed over to Stalin for approval. Umov's promotion from mayor to governor followed this process. After all, he was in this position.
He had been working in this position for a very long time, and his loyalty to the organization and to Stalin was beyond words, so his promotion was a matter of course.
As for the third type, which is a change in local personnel, the power of appointment lies in the hands of local officials. This is a great power that Umov currently holds. He has the right to appoint someone as the director of a certain factory.
Administrators of collective farms, or important cadres of other agencies.
Now that Umov has been promoted, the importance of Novosibirsk Oblast is more important than before. He knows that if he does a good job, Stalin will remember his contribution and give him the qualifications for further promotion. Here
There is no need for any departmental deliberation. As long as Stalin recognizes his work and intends to promote him, then promotion is a matter of course.
It is indeed a matter of course! Umov believes that Yang Mingzhi is the person who brings him happiness, and Yang Mingzhi himself is a case in point.
This man earned Stalin's appreciation for his actual merits, and was like a soaring rocket, rising from a mere battalion commander to his current status within a year.
"We must further help this young man. I also have joint credit for his success."
With this mentality, Umov happily had lunch with Yang Mingzhi.
Novosibirsk has completed a harvest, and the food supply situation in the entire city has temporarily improved.
Today's lunch is quite rich, with traditional Russian bread slices, a lot of bacon, and some complicated dairy products. Overall, they are full of fat and sugar, and they are hard to find valuable in the cold period.
Use language to describe it.
Umov's brief description at the dinner table made Yang Mingzhi more confident about his future work.
It turned out that Umov paid special attention to the construction of factories 834 and 835. Not only did workers get in place, but Umov also dug out a group of grassroots managers from other companies and promoted them to factory directors.
In this regard, Yang Mingzhi couldn't help but ask: "Those people, are they reliable? They were not military workers originally, but now they have to manage arsenals."
"As of now, neither you nor I should expect anything. In my opinion, they at least have management experience, which is enough."
Umov didn't want to talk any more. Even if he praised those so-called leaders, it would be unfounded.
"Comrade Berekov, you can find out if they are satisfied with them this afternoon. You don't have to worry at all. If you don't want to, I will find some more people for you."
Yang Mingzhi nodded. He had some plans. As the number of people in the factory is small, management is naturally not difficult. In this way, it is not a big problem to select a few people from the design bureau to serve as factory directors.
After all, in the final analysis, I, as a senior manager, still have to look after me. If any problems arise during the management process, I can personally solve them.
Factory 834 and Factory 835, according to Umov's description, until now, the total number of people in the two factories, including all kinds of people, is less than 1,000. According to the standards of later generations of China, they are simply small businesses.
After lunch, Yang Mingzhi rested for half an hour. At 1:30 in the afternoon, under the personal leadership of Umov, Yang Mingzhi and his entourage got into the car.
Without any further delay, a convoy of three black cars headed straight for Factory 834 in a mighty manner.
Before the group set off, Umov directly called the factory to make them prepare.
Snow covered the streets of the entire city, and the wheels of the snow chains made an annoying squeaking sound.
Yang Mingzhi couldn't help complaining and said: "Comrade Governor, maybe you should organize manpower to clear the snow on the road."
"Your suggestion is good, but our efforts will be in vain. I'm sure it will snow again soon and the climate will be even colder."
Yang Mingzhi shrugged and asked no more questions.
At this time, Umov said proudly: "We will arrive at your first factory soon. Since the two factories are actually separated by a street, I called them before departure. When we arrived, everyone
Workers will stand on the snow to welcome us."
"Ah? Would such a scene be possible..."
"You seem too grand?"
"Yes. I don't want to be the person who makes great achievements. I have always been very pragmatic."
Umov laughed and said, "Dear comrade, your other identity is Lieutenant General! Look at how you are dressed today. All the medals are worn on your military uniform. You said you don't want to have a great success?! There is no way, according to
According to the regulations, you must bring all the medals of honor. You are not just going to inspect the factory, but also mean to review. I think the comrades workers will be shocked."
"Ah, I understand." Yang Mingzhi cheered up, "They are my new subordinates. Maybe it is most appropriate for me to meet them in military uniform today."
"That's right, let's wait and see."
The car headed towards the southwest suburbs of the city. As it gradually left the old city, what appeared in front of Yang Mingzhi turned into a large number of newly built wooden houses and wider roads.
All wooden houses are of the same shape. They were quickly built by the authorities to accommodate hundreds of thousands of skilled immigrants and war refugees, including the buildings within the Academy of Sciences. The wooden houses are ultimately excessive. According to the course of history, more than
Half a million people immigrated during the war, and even after the war ended, they still settled here and continued to live.
The simple but warm wooden houses will gradually be demolished and replaced by reinforced concrete tube buildings and a lot of "pigeon cages".
On October 17, the maximum temperature during the day was close to zero. For Novosibirsk, such winter temperatures are already very warm.
There are very few pedestrians on the street, and in the suburbs, people wandering around are even rarer. Even there are old women with stooped bodies wearing thick headscarves. They often pull small sleds and what appear to be firewood.
Yang Mingzhi's attention was quickly attracted by a group of dark existences.
Umov did not hide his excitement about this, pointed to his big hand and said, "Comrade Berekov, look, those are your subordinates."
In order to see more clearly, Yang Mingzhi put on his glasses and saw a group of people dressed like black bears.
The car finally stopped, and Yang Mingzhi heard a huge noise through the window.
He opened the car door gently and suddenly heard a high-pitched male voice shouting: "Attention everyone! Welcome General Berekov!"
Who shouted such a loud voice? Yang Mingzhi didn't notice, because immediately after that, an amazing cheer came from his ears.
Yang Mingzhi's figure standing in the snow is even more majestic, and he looks a little gentle behind his eyes.
He didn't wear a coat, but looked at everyone in military uniform. He tightened his armed belt especially hard, making him look more capable.
Look at his subordinates! Judging from their faces, a complex feeling runs through his entire head.
Why? There are not only classic Russians with high noses, deep eyes, and white faces, but also many Asians with yellow skin and flat faces like myself. They must all be natives of Novosibirsk, maybe Siberian Tatars? Or
Are they Buryats, Yenisei, or other ethnic groups.
Yang Mingzhi could not judge his ethnicity just by looking at him.
Of course, this is not a problem. All of them are Soviet citizens. Now that they have become workers under their own command, they must all have qualified work abilities.
Completely different from Yang Mingzhi's dress, the workers who welcomed him all wore thick clothes. Most of the men wore forward hats or ear protection hats, and wore uniform cotton jackets and cotton trousers. Almost all the women wrapped their heads with scarves.
In addition to wearing cotton jackets and trousers, they also added a skirt. After all, it was considered a deviant behavior for Soviet women in this era not to wear skirts.
Yang Mingzhi just stood and accepted their cheers, but the cheers gradually dimmed as time went by.
Because Yang Mingzhi remained silent throughout the whole process, he knew that with the way he was dressed today, just standing here could give many people something to talk about.
With a sullen face, he suddenly stretched out his right hand, as if asking everyone to be quiet.
As a result, the scene really became quiet.
During the observation just now, Yang Mingzhi focused on those people whose heads were wrapped in scarves. Judging from their faces, they were all women, and they were young women.
Although Yang Mingzhi had been mentally prepared for the visual inspection of the male-to-female ratio of the personnel, now that he saw that about 70% of his subordinates were female generals, he couldn't help but feel very complicated.
Of course, he was not worried about the working ability of the female generals, but was worried about the logistics and production of the entire Novosibirsk State and even the entire Soviet Union.
Across the entire alliance, the main force of production has really become women.
Yang Mingzhi soon discovered a familiar face. Just because the woman took off her scarf, Yang Mingzhi recognized at a glance that it was Andlovna, the capable person he was determined to promote.
This young woman actually gave her a wink on purpose to get more attention?
Yang Mingzhi just looked at her a few times and then started looking for a manager in the team.
At this time, Umov saw that the cheering that he had not expected had come to an end. After making two noises, he called out two names to order them to come out.
After a while, two short middle-aged men who were approving black woolen coats approached Umov and also approached Yang Mingzhi.
In terms of height, Yang Mingzhi was a head taller than these two men, but Yang Mingzhi knew that the two of them were recruited from other companies by Umov himself and temporarily served as the directors of Factory 834 and Factory 835.
"Report... report to Comrade General. I... I am Mikhail Petrovich Andreev. The former production director of the second workshop of the No. 1 Glass Factory in the city, I accepted the transfer and served as the acting director of Factory 834."
Another person then replied: "Reporting to Comrade General. I am Semyon Igornovich Antonov. The former production director of the first processing workshop of the First Furniture Factory in Novosibirsk City, I have been transferred to serve as the director of the 835th Factory."
Looking at the state of the two of them, they could see that they were obviously very nervous and their speech became a little awkward.
Yang Mingzhi tensed up his whole body and saluted the two of them with a standard military salute.
Then he said: "Two comrades, listening to your narration, you have a long working experience in the state-owned factories in the city. You are both leaders responsible for managing grassroots production. I think you hold important positions in the factories affiliated to my design bureau.
I will definitely achieve great work results. With your help, I am really confident about future production."
