A foreign city, dear you

For a factory manager, a declining factory is very difficult to manage, especially when there are people trying to trip it up from behind.

At the beginning, it was Yan Fadai and two other managers who opposed Cao Xueqin at every turn. Moreover, some rumors about Cao Xueqin and the factory were spreading in the factory.

Cao Xueqin knew that these rumors were also spread by Yan Fadai, and behind Yan Fadai must be Xiao Maobing.

Cao Xueqin was very annoyed.

He is not afraid of damaging his image. He knows what kind of image he has. Rumors will always dissipate, and he, Cao Xueqin, will still be the same Cao Xueqin as before.

But this message seriously undermines the cohesion of the factory and affects productivity.

Although Tongxin Factory is destined to decline, it must operate as long as it exists. How can it operate if people's morale is low?

Shoot people first, shoot horses, and capture thieves first.

Cao Xueqin decided to take action against Yan Fadai.

Yan Fadai, when you took the order privately that time, I gave you enough face and had a good chat and communication with you in a calm manner. Even if I fine you one thousand yuan, it is just a formality.

I didn't expect that you didn't know what was good for you, didn't repent, and colluded with Xiao Maobing to frame me, Cao Xueqin, and openly opposed me, and spread rumors in the factory. Do you think I, Cao Xueqin, am a good person?

you are wrong!

I also have a temper, and I'm not a vegetarian.

If you respect me, everything will be easy to talk about;

You ignore me, cheat and act cunningly, don't blame me for being merciless!

Don't take advantage of the fact that you have someone behind you.

Useless.

Xiao Maobing is nothing in my eyes now, and I will no longer consider him a brother.

……

So one day, Cao Xueqin saw an opportunity, fired Yan Fadai, and posted a notice.

Yan Fadai didn't believe it at first, and thought that Cao Xueqin would be concerned about him. Yan Fadai was the manager of the mold department and was in charge of the mold department. If Yan Fadai was fired, the mold department would be paralyzed.

Yan Fadai thought that Cao Xueqin was just trying to scare him and give him a little warning, and would beg him to go back in a few days.

Yan Fadai didn't know that Cao Xueqin himself was very familiar with molds. In this business downturn, Cao Xueqin was able to take over the business himself, fire a manager, and save some salary.

Yan Fadai waited for two days, but Cao Xueqin didn't call him to say anything softly, so he knew something was wrong, so he called Xiao Maobing and wanted him to speak at the board meeting.

When Xiao Maobing wanted to use Yan Fadai before, he spoke very nicely. But when Yan Fadai got into trouble and came to him for help, he hesitant again, pretended to be deaf and dumb, and found an excuse to hang up the phone.

Xiao Maobing is also self-aware.

He knew that his plan had failed, and he had already offended both Cao Xueqin and Cheng Yufei, and he had long lost his voice in the board of directors.

He knew Cao Xueqin's temper in particular. Cao Xueqin could be very nice to someone, but he could also completely turn against someone. He knew that Cao Xueqin had completely turned against him. Without Cao Xueqin, Xiao Maobing knew that he was alone in the board meeting, and his words would not make any sound.

In this situation, how can he help Mo Fadai?

Mo Fadai failed to ask Xiao Mao Bing for help, and realized that he had suffered a loss. He lost his job and the mold department.

Before this mold department was acquired by Tongxin Factory, it was Yan Fadai's mold factory and he had deep feelings for it.

Yan Fadai didn't want to lose his mold factory.

There was no way. Since Cao Xueqin didn't look for him, he had to look for Cao Xueqin.

Three days later, Yan Fadai went to see Cao Xueqin with a flattering face, not to resume his job, as he knew that was impossible. Yan Fadai wanted to redeem the mold department.

After Cao Xueqin knew the purpose of Yan Fadai's visit to him, he felt that this was a business matter and had nothing to do with past events, so he should treat them separately.

Yan Fadai wants to redeem the mold department? We can sit down and talk.

During the discussion, Cao Xueqin made some concessions to help Yan Fadai.

Finally, the R&D department was returned to Yan Fadai. Yan Fadai could accept orders from Tongxin Factory or from outside factories. If he did not move out, he would have to pay rent to Tongxin Factory every month.

For Tongxin Factory, the divestiture of the mold department reduced a big burden. After all, Tongxin Factory's business was destined to decrease. There were not many molds to make, and it would cost a lot to maintain a mold department. Yan Fadai did not move out later, and paid rent to Tongxin Factory every month. This was an additional source of income for Tongxin Factory, which offset some of the factory's losses.

After Cao Xueqin fired Yan Fadai and posted a notice, this tactic of killing the chicken to scare the monkey made the other two managers who were instigated by Yan Fadai and disobeyed his orders much more obedient. After all, everyone is away from home for work, and no one wants to lose their job.

Without Yan Fadai's mischief, Tongxin Factory returned to peace and everything went on as usual.

However, gradually, some workers began to have new complaints and dissatisfaction.

Because there is no overtime work at Tongxin Factory, the work at Tongxin Factory is getting less and less.

Cao Xueqin had no way to deal with this and felt very guilty.

He didn't know what to say and could only pretend to be deaf and dumb.

He knows that although many workers complain about the hard work of overtime, many workers are actually eager to work overtime because the more money they earn, the more hope they have at home.

But what can be done?

Cheng Yufei has long lost his interest in business. What he is busy doing now is finding a suitable buyer and transferring the Tongxin factory.

The day Cheng Yufei finds a suitable buyer will be the day Tongxin Factory closes, and many workers will be temporarily unemployed.

So, the workers don’t know that it is good enough to have classes to attend now.

Later on, normal working hours could no longer be guaranteed, and we had to take occasional holidays.

All Cao Xueqin can guarantee is a minimum wage even during holidays.

Some workers saw their wages getting lower and lower and felt that Tongxin Factory had no future, so they looked for other factories.

When Cao Xueqin saw the workers who had resigned from their jobs and came back to find him after finding a new factory, he felt guilty and blamed himself.

From the perspective of Tongxin Factory, the departure of workers is a good thing. Every time a worker leaves, the factory will have one less burden.

But Cao Xueqin was very sad because he did not give the workers who followed him a good future.

He expressed his regret and blessing to every person who came to resign, paid them every penny of their salary, and gave them a small red envelope.

But there were still many workers who did not leave and stayed until the end without any regrets.

……

During the nearly one year that he managed the Tongxin Factory, Cao Xueqin did not feel very satisfied. It seemed like a pure waste of time, both for the workers and himself.

Now, these wasting days are finally over. Starting December 1st, he no longer has to come to this factory to waste time.

But how does he tell his workers?
