Beixi Special Steel Factory? What do you mean, isn't this the No. 2 open hearth furnace workshop? How did it become a factory?

Early in the morning, the workers at Beixi Iron and Steel Plant were attracted by a new sign hanging outside the No. 2 open hearth workshop. Everyone gathered around the sign and discussed it. The workers in the No. 2 open-hearth workshop were even more surprised, because they received a notice from the workshop director that the No. 2 open-hearth workshop had been contracted out, and they could no longer work in this workshop.

Have you heard that there is a rich man who contracted the No. 2 workshop to produce high-grade steel?

I heard that he is an overseas Chinese.

What kind of overseas Chinese is the boss of a township enterprise, who seems to be a million-dollar household.

Shh, look, here they come...

Everyone turned their heads to look, and saw a group of people coming from the direction of the factory headquarters in the distance. There were men, women and children, and they couldn't tell what lineup it was. Of the two leaders, one was a young man who looked less than 20 years old, but the expression on his face was rather mature for his age. The other one was just met by the workers of the Beixi Iron and Steel Plant, Xu Yang, the newly appointed executive deputy director. Since the original factory director Wang Yiqiao has been transferred to other units, Xu Yang is now the leader of Beixi Iron and Steel Factory.

Are all the masters here? How about I announce the reform of the No. 2 open-hearth workshop here first? Xu Yang walked up to everyone and said with a smile.

Since they were not familiar with Xu Yang, the workers did not answer his words, but all focused their attention on him. Some workers who had been chatting in the outer circle heard Xu Yang's greeting, and they all gathered together. The scene suddenly became crowded and crowded, and those standing in the back row could not see Xu Yang in front even if they stood on tiptoe. Yang up.

Seeing this, Qin Hai who was following Xu Yang turned around and greeted him, and Heizi who had been brought from Pingyuan stepped forward. Qin Hai whispered something to him, Heizi nodded, and ran into the workshop with another young man, dragged out a table after a while, and put it at the door of the workshop.

Qin Hai pointed to the table and said to Xu Yang: Director Xu, the conditions are simple, so you can stand on it and tell the masters.

Xu Yang was worried that there were too many people watching, and everyone couldn't hear his words. Seeing that Qin Hai asked someone to move the table, he was not polite. He looked around but couldn't find anything to put his feet on, so he directly supported it with his hands, and jumped onto the table like a gymnast. When the workers saw the new factory manager showing such a trick, they couldn't help but cheered, and the atmosphere on the scene immediately became more relaxed.

When Xu Yang came to Beixi Iron and Steel Plant to work, he focused on the image of a young leader. The action of jumping onto the table just now was actually done on purpose by him. If it was replaced by other more mature and stable leaders, even if they would not refuse to stand on the table to speak, at least they would have to use a stool to step up to the table with a more graceful posture.

Masters, let me introduce you first. Xu Yang said in a clear voice, pointed at Qin Hai who was standing below, and said, This is Qin Hai, director of Qin Hai, sent by Pingyuan Special Steel Factory. He is a young reformer that Governor Yang of our province and Mayor Chai of the city value very much, let us give warm applause to welcome Director Qin to come to our factory to guide the work.

Wow... The workers below applauded sparingly. Everyone didn't know who Qin Hai was, and they just gave him some applause out of politeness.

Following the instructions of the superiors, Beixi Iron and Steel Works will launch a new round of reform plan. The focus of the reform is to introduce a variety of operating methods to inject new vitality into Beixi Iron and Steel Works. After discussion by the city leaders and approval by the provincial government, Beixi Iron and Steel Works Xi Iron and Steel Works decided to jointly operate the No. 2 open hearth furnace workshop and Pingyuan Special Steel Factory to establish Beixi Special Steel Factory for commercial operation. The newly established Beixi Special Steel Factory will be headed by Comrade Qin Hai.” Xu Yang Said with enthusiasm.

What? Joint venture?

What does consortium mean?

Then we are people from Beixi Iron and Steel Factory, or some kind of special steel factory?

Xu Yang's words caused a series of ripples. People stared suspiciously at the smiling Qin Hai, wanting to know what kind of factory manager this young man could be. Of course, what they want to know more is what substantial impact the establishment of this special steel plant will have on them.

Director Qin, you can announce the rest of the matter. I'll let you go. After Xu Yang introduced the basic situation, he jumped off the table and gave the table to Qin Hai.

A while ago, Heizi had found another stool from the workshop and put it beside the table. Qin Hai stepped on a stool to get on the table, scanned the audience, and said, Masters, hello everyone, my name is Qin Hai, I am from Pingyuan County, and I am very glad to have the opportunity to work with you. According to the instructions of the government, Pingyuan Iron and Steel Works is trying to contract the No. 2 open hearth furnace workshop of Beixi Iron and Steel Works. Based on the principle of voluntary reciprocity, we will recruit some employees from Beixi Iron and Steel Works to work in the jointly established Beixi Special Steel Works. Welcome Everyone sign up.

Director Xiaoqin, you said that Pingyuan Iron and Steel Factory will contract our open hearth furnace workshop. How come I heard that Pingyuan Iron and Steel Factory has been closed for more than ten years. Why do you contract our workshop? A worker said below Said, with a hint of disdain in his tone.

Qin Hai looked at the worker and said with a smile: Master, I don't know what you call him, but I can tell you that what you said is outdated. Pingyuan Iron and Steel Plant resumed production last year, and so far So far, the production situation is good. The steel products we produce are mainly for export, and have been sold to the markets of Japan and Iraq.”

Director Xiaoqin, are you bragging? The Japanese are so skilled, how can they import our steel? Someone retorted loudly.

Why is this impossible? Qin Hai still said with a smile, Beixi is not far from Pingyuan. If you don't believe me, you can go and have a look. In addition, the employees of our Pingyuan Iron and Steel Plant are on the New Year's Eve At that time, everyone got a year-end bonus of 500 yuan, so it can't be bragging.

500 yuan year-end bonus!

Tsk tsk tsk, it's worth half a year's salary!

Who knows if it's true or not, this young man speaks too loudly, I really don't believe it.

Qin Hai's words caused far more shock than what Xu Yang said before. Contracting and joint ventures are too far away for the workers, but the words of 500 yuan year-end bonus are real.

Beixi Iron and Steel Works can be regarded as a company with decent profits. In the era when state-owned enterprises were generally not profitable, Beixi Iron and Steel Works at least guaranteed that wages and benefits would not decrease, and there were some bonuses at the end of the year, but the amount of bonuses each time was not high. It's just tens or hundreds of dollars. I've never heard of a one-time bonus of 500 yuan. Everyone said that they didn't believe it, but they actually believed it in their hearts. It sounds very easy to tell such a thing. Everyone has relatives and friends, and this kind of thing can't be hidden from anyone.

Qiao Changsheng, who was standing below, took a step forward and said loudly: I am Qiao Changsheng from Pinggang, and I was also an apprentice at our Beigang in the past. Master Cheng Baichuan taught me at that time, and he can testify to me. I am so old, I will not tell lies, I can tell everyone, because I am the monitor of the workshop, our factory manager Qin gave me a special reward. This year's Chinese New Year, I got a year-end bonus of 1,000 yuan.

Hi, old Qiao, it's really you. I'm Lao Yu, Yu Youheng, do you remember? Someone in the crowd really knew Qiao Changsheng, and he immediately called out to him with enthusiasm in his tone.

Qiao Changsheng was sent to Beixi Iron and Steel Works to learn steelmaking technology and stayed in Beigang for several months. He is a passionate and righteous person with a good popularity and made many friends in Beigang. Although more than ten years have passed, but speaking of it, there are still people who can remember him.

Qiao Changsheng looked up at Qin Hai who was standing on the table, Qin Hai nodded knowingly. Qiao Changsheng smiled and walked towards the worker named Yu Youheng. The two shook hands and patted each other's shoulders, laughing and chatting together.

Old Qiao, haven't you already retired, why are you going to work again?

Oh, I can't help it, I can't stay idle. We Pinggang resumed production and couldn't find ready-made workers. Doesn't this make us old guys come out of the mountain again?

By the way, what you said just now, that you got a bonus of 1,000 yuan at the end of the year, is it true or not?

Is my old Joe a liar? Let me tell you...

The workers standing next to Yu Youheng were also attracted by the conversation between the two of them. From everyone's point of view, what the leader standing on the table said was probably bragging, but the conversations of private acquaintances were not. 90% confidence. Qiao Changsheng looked like that kind of old worker at first glance, and the tone of his speech made people feel trustworthy. Everyone was more willing to listen to him talk about what happened to Pinggang.

Seeing that everyone's interest was attracted by Qiao Changsheng, Qin Hai smiled self-deprecatingly, jumped off the table, and began to greet Heizi and the others to set up tables and chairs and set up several consultation desks. The matter of the joint venture is a bit complicated, and the recruitment of Beigang workers is also very sensitive, involving the immediate economic interests of each worker, so there is a lot of content that needs to be explained. Qin Hai and Xu Yang had discussed that they would hold consultation activities at the gate of the No. 2 open hearth furnace workshop for a few days to answer all kinds of questions.

Director Qin, I'll leave this to you, and I won't bother you anymore. I'll let Xiao Zhang stay here and help you with some communication matters. If you have any troubles that can't be solved, you can let Xiao Zhang go Inform me. Xu Yang shook hands with Qin Hai and said goodbye, while leaving a factory secretary named Zhang Yunjia at the scene.

Masters, the recruitment of the special steel plant has officially started now. You are welcome to come to consult related matters. It doesn't matter. You can ask anything you want to know. We will work together in Beigang in the future. It is good to make friends. Qin Hai raised his voice and shouted to everyone.
