"Boss, please come to the company quickly. Mayor Zhou has already arrived." Li Mumu called Xia Zekai.
He looked a little anxious and angry on the phone. Who would have thought that on the first day of the May Day holiday, without warning, the city leaders would come to visit and express condolences.
It is said that we want to take a look at the workers who are still working hard at their jobs during the Labor Day holiday, and care about whether the working people have been treated unfairly.
Isn't this nonsense?
That’s not how surprise inspections work!
Fortunately, Li Mumu didn't have a day off today. After receiving instructions from his boss last time, he canceled his family's original May Day holiday travel arrangements and had been waiting in the company. This time it happened by chance.
"Lao Zhou went to the company today?" Xia Zekai asked him again to confirm this.
Li Mumu said crisply: "Here he is, he is still watching in the workshop."
"Okay, you stay with me first, I'll be there right away." Xia Zekai hung up the phone and quickly called Wang Yi to drive to the company.
He never expected that Lao Zhou would actually play this trick, wouldn't he feel it was a loss of status?
Today is the May Day holiday, and the road is extremely congested. By the time Xia Zekai arrived at the company, it was already an hour later. Li Mumu texted him to tell him that Zhou Wenyi was still in the workshop watching the production process, and he had not left.
"I..." Xia Zekai couldn't complain anymore. Why are you so addicted?
After the Bentley Mulsanne stopped in the company, Xia Zekai didn't even have time to go to the office. He ran to the workshop first.
At this time, Zhou Wenyi was watching from the No. 5 workshop, and Li Mumu was accompanying him, introducing him to the production process and technical requirements of this workshop, as well as the shipping standards.
Workshops No. 5 and 6 of the Phase I factory of Jingtong Development Co., Ltd. have been renovated and used to produce dried fruits.
Zhou Wenyi also discovered this. The first four workshops mainly focused on products such as Rongdou and Pocky, but it was completely different here.
He asked: "Mr. Li, how is your current sales of dried fruits?"
"Why is there only such a small amount of output?"
Li Mumu paused for a moment, organized his words, and then said: "The sales volume is very good, but because we added this product later, we did not expect that the supply would exceed demand after the product was launched, which has led to our current production being very passive.
.”
"That means you didn't make a production plan before production?" Zhou Wenyi pointed out this point directly.
Zhou Wenyi carried the aura of being the leader of the city government, coupled with this surprise inquiry, so that Li Mumu didn't know how to answer.
He forced himself to calm down, but before he could think of words, he heard Xia Zekai's voice floating in his ears.
"Compared with Mayor Zhou, I am very ashamed. The leader is always concerned about the sufferings of our company during the holidays, which makes me, the person in charge, feel ashamed!" Xia Zekai said jokingly when he came up.
Zhou Wenyi had expected that he would come, so he laughed and said: "Your company is doing really well. I just looked at it carefully and learned it again."
He said: "So far, among the factories I have visited, your company ranks among the best."
This evaluation was so high that Xia Zekai was a little pleased, and a bright smile naturally appeared on his face: "Thank you, the leader. After all, we are engaged in food production and processing, and we must always hold ourselves to the highest standards."
"Your idea is right. Other companies should also have your awareness." Zhou Wenyi said.
Xia Zekai waved his hands repeatedly: "Leaders can't say that. Every company produces different products, has different production environments, and naturally has different demand standards, so we can't generalize."
"You mean I can cut it across the board?" Zhou Wenyi stared at Xia Zekai.
Xia Zekai thought that if you hadn't taken up your job, I would have given you up on the spot. Why are you talking so rhythmically?
But he still had to explain: "The leaders have overthought it. Food companies have food production standards, and steel companies have steel production standards..."
Xia Zekai rambled on, and Zhou Wenyi looked at him with a half-smile. After Xia Zekai finished speaking, he laughed out loud: "What a good boss Xia!"
Li Mumu watched from the side as his boss and the top leaders of the Qicheng City Government talked, laughed and communicated freely. He was envious and admired in his heart. In comparison, he was so bad just now.
I was so frightened that I couldn't speak. It was so embarrassing!
This also made Li Mumu realize that his cultivation was still not enough.
Zhou Wenyi brought up the old conversation again. He asked about the production of dried fruits and asked Xia Zekai if the production plan was not done well.
"Leader, this is a new product we will add after this year. It is a product that is strongly requested by market customer feedback. We decided to make it after preliminary market research. There is no situation where the production plan is not well prepared."
Xia Zekai said tactfully.
"The company currently only has two workshops that produce dried fruits. We also made a comprehensive assessment of market uncertainty, but the feedback from the market has been too great. Whether offline or online, customers on both sides are using our company's dried fruits.
The products were sold out, and online customers even threatened us not to buy our company’s products if we don’t put dried fruits on the shelves.”
Zhou Wenyi was happy to hear what he said. He expected that a company as big as Jingtong Development Co., Ltd. would not do such a thing.
And these customers are happy too.
Zhou Wenyi walked forward again, looking at every link of production in the workshop. From time to time, he would ask Xia Zekai what was done here and what was done there, and Xia Zekai always answered fluently.
After watching for a while, Xia Zekai suddenly said to Li Mumu: "Old Li, go and get some finished products of each dried fruit for the leaders to taste."
Li Mumu went to get it immediately.
Zhou Wenyi continued to watch, and went from workshop No. 5 to the last workshop No. 6, both of which produced dried fruits, but the varieties they produced were different.
Li Mumu put eight kinds of dried fruits currently produced in the company on a tray and brought some of them over. Zhou Wenyi twisted a few of them and smelled them for a while. The smell was very fragrant.
"Not bad, the taste is good, and the heat is also on point. No wonder you sell it so well." Zhou Wenyi had an expression of "I understand" on his face.
Xia Zekai didn't say much. After reading it, Xia Zekai led the way and walked with Zhou Wenyi outside the factory.
Zhou Wenyi said: "Boss Xia, do you have any difficulties in the production process now?"
There must be difficulties. Xia Zekai thought about it and said: "Leader, there are still some difficulties. The procurement of raw materials like this is very troublesome. The origins of some dried fruits are very chaotic, and large quantities of them are grown in other places or even abroad.
When we purchase, we often have trouble controlling the quality of raw materials, which also increases transportation costs."
"Well, are there any more?" Zhou Wenyi asked him with a smile.
Xia Zekai shook his head: "Everything else can be solved."
All these words made Zhou Wenyi break his guard. He raised his finger and pointed at Xia Zekai and said: "You boss Xia, you deliberately created problems for me."
"The leader is overthinking it. I don't mean that. I am mainly thinking about whether our government can mobilize farmers here in Qicheng to grow some dried fruit raw materials that we need. I want to express my position that our company is willing to pay more than
The purchase price in the raw material market will be collected directly from farmers and we will never default on their money." Xia Zekai revealed his purpose.
