When will I have a long tassel?

Ge Yafei is a former student of mentor Xiao Wenjun. He once worked as a postdoctoral fellow in the United States and is a machine tool expert. In order to take care of his parents' needs, he returned to China last year. He originally wanted to find a teaching position in a university, but several well-known universities could not give him good enough treatment, and he looked down on ordinary universities.

After Tang Zifeng got the news from Xiao Wenjun, he personally recruited him and hired him to Canglong Research Institute with an annual salary of 100,000 yuan and a 120-square-meter house. He is currently the head of the heavy crankshaft machine tool project team. Tang Zifeng once heard Sun Min, the dean of the institute, report to him that Ge Yafei lived up to his reputation, had a deep understanding of heavy-duty crankshaft machine tools, and worked very hard. The project he led was progressing very quickly, which made Kang Zhichao of the shipping company very satisfy.

When Tang Zifeng returned to the capital this time, he originally planned to take time to visit the capital branch of Canglong Research Institute, especially to see the situation of Ge Yafei's project team. Who would have thought that before he could find Ge Yafei, Ge Yafei would ask him out through Xiao Wenjun.

"Lao Ge, if you have something important, can't you tell me on the phone?"

The next morning, in a small office at the Beijing branch of Canglong Research Institute, Tang Zifeng asked Ge Yafei with a smile.

"Well, I'm afraid I can't explain it clearly on the phone. Also, I'm worried about disturbing Director Tang's work, and it's inconvenient to call Director Tang rashly, so I sent a message through Junior Sister Xiao to ask Director Tang Come over here at a convenient time so that I can report to you in person." Ge Yafei sat on the sofa and said slightly nervously.

Tang Zifeng frowned and said: "Lao Ge, you are a returnee from the United States. How can you learn to talk like these domestic bureaucrats? You are Wenjun's senior brother, you are also my senior brother. You can just call me My name is enough, or you can call me junior brother, but why do you call me Factory Director Tang? Are you trying to drive me out?"

"No, no, I didn't mean that." Ge Yafei was a little embarrassed, and he said calmly: "This is in a company, you are my leader, and I still have to respect the leader, otherwise everyone should call me arrogant."

"Why, has anyone said that?" Tang Zifeng asked.

"That's not true...at least no one said that to my face." Ge Yafei said.

Tang Zifeng understood. If no one said it to his face, then of course someone would say it behind his back. Ge Yafei is not an eloquent person. He has stayed abroad for many years and has just returned to work in China. He is probably not very good at dealing with people and sophistication. He has a postdoctoral degree from MIT and was hired by Tang Zifeng with a high salary. It is inevitable that he will make people jealous, and it is inevitable that he will gossip behind his back.

Although Ge Yafei is not sociable, his IQ is sufficient. How could he not feel that others had opinions about him? Once he found out that he had become the object of discussion by others, he felt psychological pressure and became more reserved. This is why he seemed particularly respectful when he met Tang Zifeng.

"Dr. Ge, you don't have to worry about this." Tang Zifeng said, "The public's eyes are sharp. Others can eventually see how capable you are, Dr. Ge, and what kind of person you are. You don't have to deliberately do it. Just change yourself and do things according to your true colors. The interpersonal relationships in the enterprise are indeed complicated if you say they are complicated. But if you say it is simple, it is also very simple. As long as you have the ability, others will admire you.

"When the heavy-axis machine tool is developed, I will give your entire research team a heavy reward. Then everyone will know that this is all your credit, Dr. Ge. Without you, Dr. Ge, we would not be able to get this fund. You think, After everyone gets the bonus, will they still care about how you speak?"

"Director Tang is right. In fact, my father told me the same thing. Alas, I have been too busy studying these years, and I have a lot of flaws in how I treat people. I need to adjust slowly." Ge Yafei said sincerely.

"Yeah, it's not urgent." Tang Zifeng said, "By the way, what were we talking about just now? Do you have something to tell me?"

"Yes, yes." Ge Yafei also came to his senses. He had made an appointment with Tang Zifeng to report the matter to him, but why did he accidentally end up going wrong.

"Director Tang, I asked you to come here because I have something very important to report to you. Last month, a manager of a Japanese machine tool research institute contacted me through a classmate of mine and said that he would They offered me a high salary to work in their company," Ge Yafei said.

"Japanese Machine Tool Research Institute?" Tang Zifeng was startled and asked subconsciously: "Why do they want to hire you?"

Ge Yafei said: "The person said that they heard that I had some expertise in the design of heavy-duty crankshaft machine tools, and their research institute was also developing such machine tools, so they wanted to poach me."

"Oh, that's it." Tang Zifeng responded, feeling ashamed for his stupid question just now. Isn't this nonsense? Ge Yafei is a talent, and if he is a talent, someone will dig him out. It's a shame that he would ask such a question. In fact, what he wanted to ask just now was not this, but another question.

"How did they know you?" Tang Zifeng asked.

Ge Yafei shook his head: "I don't know about this. I guess it was an engineer in the institute who told me. The person who came to poach me had previously worked in a large state-owned machine tool factory and had a wide network of contacts. "

"Really? Which factory is he from? What's his name?" Tang Zifeng asked casually.

"He's from Changning Machine Tool Factory, his name is He Jian." Ge Yafei said.

"He Jian? Damn it, why did this guy go to a Japanese-owned company again?" Tang Zifeng scolded him directly. He had never dealt with He Jian directly, but he had heard Han Weichang say it many times. In Han Weichang's words, He Jian was an out-and-out technical hooligan with no integrity at all. Of course, Tang Zifeng also knew that Han Weichang's evaluation was full of water. To put it simply, it was a gangster looking down on him. After all, Han Weichang's integrity was often in arrears.

He Jian first entered Tang Zifeng's field of vision when he switched jobs from Changning Machine Tool Factory to the Korean-owned Dongyuan Machine Tool Factory. Using the guise of Korean-owned machine tools, he boasted to customers and grabbed many orders from Linyi Machinery. Later, due to the squeeze from domestic machine tool companies such as Linyi Machinery and the impact of the Asian financial crisis, Dongyuan Machine Tool Factory declared bankruptcy, and He Jian fled to Pengcheng. Because he did not play an important role, Lin Yiji did not go out to find out where he would go after arriving in Pengcheng. Unexpectedly, he actually joined a Japanese machine tool research institute, intending to continue on the road of being a comprador. .

What surprised Tang Zifeng the most was that the Dongyuan Machine Tool Factory went bankrupt just before the Spring Festival. Now it was only the end of February, and He Jian had already become some kind of manager in a Japanese-funded enterprise, and even came to the Canglong Research Institute in an aggressive manner. corner of the wall.

"Why, Director Tang knows this He Jian?" Ge Yafei heard the meaning of Tang Zifeng's words and asked curiously.

Tang Zifeng nodded: "They are all in the machine tool circle, so I must have heard of his name."

"Oh." Ge Yafei responded, but didn't ask any more questions. Tang Zifeng immediately cursed when he heard He Jian's name. The relationship between the two was obviously not that simple. However, if Tang Zifeng didn't say anything, Ge Yafei wouldn't be able to ask more questions. All he needed to know was that Tang Zifeng was extremely unfavorable to He Jian.

"What price did he offer you?" Tang Zifeng asked.

Ge Yafei said: "He didn't say the specific price. He only said that it would be doubled based on my treatment at Canglong Research Institute."

"That's an annual salary of 200,000 yuan and a house of 240 square meters." Tang Zifeng sneered.

"I didn't tell him about the house." Ge Yafei explained timidly.

"Then what do you think?" Tang Zifeng asked again.

Ge Yafei puffed up his chest and said, "I rejected him directly without leaving him any room."

Tang Zifeng asked deliberately: "Why? Didn't he promise to double his salary?"

Ge Yafei said: "Director Tang, I came to Canglong Research Institute for the treatment of the institute, especially the house arranged for me. Now that my parents have come to the capital, my life is very comfortable. I Thank you very much, Director Tang, for your kindness."

Tang Zifeng waved his hand: "Don't say that, you deserve it. You see, the treatment Canglong gives you is actually too low. Japanese companies can promise to double it with just one mouthful."

"You still have to be trustworthy." Ge Yafei said seriously, "Since I agreed to work at Canglong Research Institute, I can't change my mind. If I do this, I will be sorry for you, Director Tang. Also, I also like Canglong Research Institute very much." Regarding the working environment and work content, Mr. Kang of the shipping company told me that the entire shipbuilding industry in our country is now stuck on this heavy-axis machine tool. I can participate in such an important work. This is the value of my life. I can change jobs just because someone else gave me more money.”

When he said this, Tang Zifeng had been observing his expression. Ge Yafei was not a person who was good at lying. Tang Zifeng could see that what he said was sincere. Of course, this does not mean that Ge Yafei is the kind of person with lofty ideals and strong will. He refused He Jian's recruitment, largely because the treatment given to him by Canglong Research Institute was not bad and the working environment was relatively pleasant, so he Not tempted. As for the value of life and the like, that can only be considered after the basic needs of life are met.

"So, you called me here just to tell me this?" Tang Zifeng asked.

Ge Yafei shook his head: "No. In fact, I have already rejected He Jian. It doesn't matter whether I report this to you or not. I invited you here because I heard that He Jian didn't just poach me, but He found many engineers in the research institute, and almost all of them are very capable engineers. I have not asked them, but I think that if he can offer me double the salary, he should also offer it to other engineers. Do this."
