For Eder, the grain processing industry is just a light industry that does not receive much attention. Management can make money, but in Europe at the beginning of the twentieth century, the focus is now on heavy industries that enhance national strength. Edel is not immune, and now he pays attention to
This is the new director of the Constanta Steel Plant and its expansion project.
After getting rid of the greedy Duzwegan, Eder had no choice but to find a new leader for this Romanian pillar company. In fact, if Duzwegan was not too greedy, as the head of a steel plant, he would still be
Qualified. But now because of greed, he lives in prison.
"This is what we are considering for the new person in charge of the steel plant. Your Highness, please take a look." Industry Minister Karituri handed several resumes in his hand to the crown prince.
"Isn't Bisk good now?" Edel asked.
In this corruption case, Bisk, as the deputy director of the steel plant, did not find any problems. Now he is temporarily supervising the entire steel plant, so it is no wonder that Edel asked this question.
"His Royal Highness Bisk is qualified as a production leader, but his ability to lead the development and growth of the steel plant is still a bit lacking." Karaturi explained to the crown prince. Edel understood what he meant. Bisk is used to being ordered around.
Working.
After asking, Edel picked up the resumes of several suitable candidates given by Karaturi and looked at them. Vazquez; forty-five years old, French, previously served as deputy director of Solak Steel Company in France. Later,
I resigned out of anger due to a conflict with the company's general manager, and now I don't work for any company. This time the Romanian Steel Company recruited me, and I submitted my resume.
After Edel saw this resume, he rejected Mr. Vazquez in his heart. He is forty-five years old and still so ambitious. He probably has a lot of desire for control.
Edel picked up the next resume, Kturalski; fifty-one years old, a Pole, who used to be the deputy director of the Plat Steel Plant in Russia. Later, he was discriminated against due to his ethnic origin and was forced to leave his job. Now he works for a family.
Be the director of a small steel factory.
Bordwell; 48 years old, German, previously worked as a deputy at Krupp Steel Plant, but resigned two years ago due to physical reasons. Now after recovering from illness, he wants to change his job, and he is currently idle at home.
Carlosta; 54 years old, Spanish. He used to be the director of a steel plant affiliated with the Spanish Sotac Company. He later resigned due to salary issues and is currently unemployed.
After reading the resumes of these people, Edel asked the Minister of Industry, "What do you think?"
"Your Highness, the resumes of these people were selected by us from many applicants. They can basically meet the requirements of the steel plant."
After hearing Karaturi's words, Edel himself didn't know how to choose. Edel thought for a while and said, "How about arranging an interview with them?"
"That's fine."
"Then go and make arrangements."
Half a month later, Karaturi came to the palace with several candidates who applied for the general manager position of the steel company.
"I have met His Highness." The group saluted and said hello after seeing Edel.
"You're welcome. You are all outstanding management talents in the steel industry. This time, because the steel company is of great importance to Romania, I invite you to come for an interview. I hope you can understand. Now let's do it one by one."
Everyone nodded to express their understanding.
"Then Mr. Vazquez will stay here first."
After Edel finished speaking, everyone except Vazquez walked out.
"Mr. Vazquez, please talk about your prospects for Romania Steel Company first." Edel first asked about his prospects for Steel Company.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, I think Romania's steel industry is relatively conservative now, and the current steel plant production capacity is completely insufficient for Romania's demand. I think we need to expand the scale of production capacity, and it is best to occupy the surrounding markets, and to hold back the domestic steel market."
After listening to Vazquez's outlook, Edel remained silent. Caraturi said to the Frenchman, "Mr. Vazquez, thank you for your speech. Please wait outside."
After sending Vazquez away, Carituri called the next candidate, the Polish Kturalski.
Eder repeated what he said to Vázquez and to Katuraski.
"I think Romanian steel companies should first do internal stabilization work. The current requirements for production capacity are very simple and meet domestic demand."
"Why?" Edel asked curiously when he heard Katuraski's words. Faced with the crown prince's question, the Pole explained. "This is because Romanian steel plants have no advantage now. They need raw materials.
In the case of imports, the cost will be higher than others. Moreover, the development of Romanian steel companies is also due to tariffs."
"Mr. Katuraski, please continue." After asking, Edel asked him to continue the previous topic.
"My personal thought is that until large-scale coal and iron mines are found in Romania, the steel industry will be sufficient to satisfy the domestic demand, and we will not be competitive in the external market."
Karaturi saw that Edel only asked one question and did not ask any more questions. "Mr. Katuraski, thank you for your speech. Please wait outside."
After sending the Pole away, Karaturi called the German Bordwell and the Spanish Carlosta to inquire. After asking, the Minister of Industry asked what the crown prince meant. "Your Highness, what do you think we should do?
Which choice?"
"I think the Polish Katuraski is more suitable for the current Constanta Steel Plant." Edel expressed his opinion. For Romania, the current steel industry needs to be sufficient. After all, the cost is higher than others.
Gao Katuraski's speech was more in line with the crown prince's requirements.
"Okay, Your Highness, I will go and tell them the results of my choice in the afternoon." After finishing speaking, Karaturi left the office.
In the afternoon, Karaturi told the results of the selection in front of several people. Katuraski was very happy that he could be selected as the head of Romania Steel Company. Others who did not apply were also very graceful.
Congratulations to him.
After spending a few days to go through the resignation procedures, Katuraski took up the post at the Constanta Steel Plant under the leadership of Karaturi. This veteran of the steel industry paid close attention to production efficiency and cut unnecessary tasks.
Department. Of course, he also knew that he could not be blindly strict, so he spent half of the money saved on improving workers' food and welfare. This move made the front-line workers burst into cheers, and it also allowed him to quickly gain a foothold in the steel plant.
After Edel saw that the steel plant was operating well again, he also withdrew his gaze. After a while, a piece of good news came that made him extremely happy. In the Romanian Power Laboratory, a small diesel engine was finally successfully developed.
