Siheyuan: Xu Damao's New Life

Steel rolling mill on Monday.

Xu Damao had just entered the office and hadn't even sat down when he heard the factory's loudspeaker broadcasting an emergency notice, saying that all leaders and employee representatives must go to the auditorium for a meeting, as the higher-ups had an important decision to announce.

After a quick thought, Xu Damao realized that this must mean that Director Yang was going to be transferred, and Li Huaide was about to take over the entire steel mill.

When Xu Damao walked into the conference room, he found the atmosphere a bit solemn. He simply did not move forward and directly found a seat in the back row to slack off.

When Xu Damao was closing his eyes to rest, he felt as if someone sat down next to him, and Xu Damao couldn't help but open his eyes.

"Hey, Brother Cui, why are you here? You are a great hero!" The person who came was Cui Yong, the head of the Inspection Section.

Otherwise, it was Li Huaide's skill! When the situation was unfavorable, he decisively sent Cui Yong to play a trick on Lao Yang. Cui Yong did not disappoint. He first found the flaw of the head of the Finance Department, and then continued to dig deeper, and finally brought down Director Yang. Of course, Xu Damao's former boss was really a fence-sitter, so now he has been sent to the branch factory.

"Aren't you, the great hero, sitting here? I came here to apologize to you. Brother Li arranged it this way at the time and didn't let me tell anyone, so I had no choice. I hope you can forgive me." Cui Yong looked around and said in a low voice.

"It's okay. We brothers are still the same as before. It will be the same as before." Xu Damao said.

"Okay, I feel relieved when you say this, brother. I'll treat you to a meal some other day!"

As the two were talking, a group of leaders entered the auditorium accompanied by the factory leaders. Director Yang presided over the meeting as usual, and it was probably the last time.

Soon the superior leaders announced the personnel appointments. Director Yang resigned from all positions in the steel rolling mill and was appointed to another position. Li Huaide was appointed as the new director of the steel rolling mill. The director of the logistics department, Wang Jinshan, was appointed as the deputy director in charge of logistics. As for the other deputy director, Wu, he had been there for relatively short time and his position had not changed.

This meeting can be said to be a huge victory for Li Huaide's faction, but if there are any problems in the factory in the future, Li Huaide will have to bear the responsibilities. If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight. I hope Li Huaide can steer the rudder well. If the boat really capsizes, I will not be buried with Li Huaide.

The meeting lasted until noon. At the meeting, the superior leaders directly requested that seventh- and eighth-level workers be transferred from the steel rolling mill at the beginning of next month to complete an important task. The expansion of the new plant area of ​​the steel rolling mill will also be started simultaneously after the task is completed.

Li Huaide thought about the technician assessment at the end of the month and agreed without hesitation. There will definitely be an impact. After all, with so many senior workers being transferred at once, the output and product qualification rate will decrease. However, the national mission is the most important.

Xu Damao's mind was stirred. Could it be that these senior workers were transferred to make industrial machine tools based on the drawings he gave them? And then the new factory would use all the equipment produced by his company? The more Xu Damao thought about it, the more he thought it was possible. Only senior workers could make those precision parts.

The meeting ended soon and Xu Damao was invited by Li Huaide to have dinner with the leaders. Li Huaide also introduced him to his father-in-law and some other leaders.

Just as Li Huaide was busy taking over the various workshops and arranging his own people, the time came to May 30th. Today and tomorrow were the days for the work grade assessment. All the workers in the steel rolling mill were eager to pass the exam in one fell swoop to get a higher work grade, so that life at home would be better.

Liu Haizhong, with his big belly, was giving an impassioned speech to boost the morale of a group of apprentices and low-level blacksmiths. Strictly speaking, these people could be considered half of his apprentices.

"Comrades, you have been in the factory for quite some time. I have seen your hard work and efforts. Today is the time to test your abilities. I hope you can all perform at your best and make further progress!"

Wow!

There was a warm applause from below. Although Liu Haizhong had some faults as a person, no one could say anything about the way he taught his apprentices. He really taught with his heart, so everyone gave him face.

Today's assessment is for junior workers, led by an engineer specially sent from above, with senior workers from factories near Sijiu City serving as judges.

After all, it was a big event in the factory, so it would be inappropriate not to show up. Xu Damao just came to the scene and took a few simple turns before leaving, but he still sent two people with cameras to take some photos as publicity materials. Tomorrow's senior worker assessment is still interesting. I heard that Yi Zhonghai wants to be an eighth-level worker? As long as I am here, you can be an eighth-level worker in your dreams!

Liu Haizhong and several masters from the technical exchange group walked around the assessment sites of various types of work from time to time, patting one on the shoulder, encouraging another, and taking the time to explain a few points that needed attention, appearing very active.

Deputy Director Wu was in charge of technology and was naturally present at the assessment. Seeing Liu Haizhong's behavior, he nodded and was very satisfied with him. This technical exchange group was established at his suggestion, so if there were any results, he would be proud of it.

Soon, groups of people began to enter the venue, and the assessment officially began. Several engineers from above were patrolling the examination room, stopping from time to time to watch and comment.

It was not until after seven in the evening that the assessment of the low-level workers in the entire steel mill was completed. There was no other way. After the expansion of the steel mill, there were two to three thousand more people, basically all apprentices, and the workers in a factory were distributed in a pyramid shape, just like the base of a pyramid, the lower the level, the more people there were.

After the assessment was completed, Li Huaide hosted a banquet for all the examiners and wanted Xu Damao to accompany him, but Xu Damao declined on the pretext of going home to take care of his pregnant wife. So today, he got off work on time and went to Lou's house to accompany his wife.

Xu Damao was carrying some fruits and as soon as he entered the door, he was seen by Lou Xiao'e who was lying on the sofa.

"You are such a heartless person. You haven't come to see me for such a long time. You are just enjoying yourself!"

"No, how could that be? There have been a lot of changes in the factory these days, and today we also had a work-level assessment. I'm really busy!"

Father Lou just happened to come down the stairs and heard what Xu Damao said. After all, it was once his family's business, so he was still quite concerned. "Da Mao, what's going on in the factory? What happened?"

"Director Yang made a minor mistake and was transferred away. The former deputy director Li Huaide took over, and the director of the logistics department also let the deputy director go. A year later, a new deputy director Wu came. Now these three people have the final say in the factory."

"Nothing about the expansion?" Lou's father was very well-informed now. In addition, the country knew that the mysterious man had a relationship with the Lou family, so they deliberately arranged for someone to leak some information to him. If it weren't for waiting to see his unborn grandson and granddaughter, Lou's father would have been eager to set off to Hong Kong to show his talents. He would not have to remotely control his two useless sons like now!

"After the factory building is completed, construction will be suspended. They said that after the worker level assessment, most of the senior workers in the factory will be transferred to complete a task, and then we can continue the expansion."

Lou Zhenhua nodded thoughtfully. He also got some news. The country had obtained a large amount of advanced technology from a mysterious person, and now there would be a big move! He was patriotic in his bones, and he couldn't wait to get involved!
