When will I have a long tassel?

"It's true that a factory as big as ours can't survive on small products like this alone." Zhang Shu, the deputy director in charge of logistics, sighed.

Zhou Heng said: "When I had dinner with Guan Zhiming last time, he mentioned that Xiya Heavy Machinery Factory had contacted us and wanted a 13-meter heavy-duty boring and milling machine. Because the management of the factory was in chaos at the time, the technical department did not dare to Then, the matter was put on hold. I called Zheng Mingyuan from Xizhong a few days ago. He said that they have decided to introduce this equipment from abroad and are currently in contact with several foreign heavy machine tool companies. confirm."

"Is it possible to reconsider us?" Qin Zhongnian asked.

Zhou Heng said: "From what Zheng Mingyuan said, we should not be considered. He said that they initially planned to import from abroad, but at the beginning of last year, there were some restrictions on foreign heavy equipment exports to China, so they We found Linyiji. Later, foreign restrictions were relaxed a bit, and several foreign companies were willing to talk to them, so they no longer considered us."

Wu Weiqin sighed: "Many companies now have this mentality. They will never buy domestic products if they can be imported from abroad. On the one hand, this is because of the prevailing mentality in the society of worshiping foreigners. On the other hand, domestic companies are not living up to expectations. Just For example, we, Linyi Machinery, are obviously the main manufacturer of heavy-duty boring and milling machines in China, but when people come to the door, we can't accept them, so it's no wonder that they want to buy foreign machines."

Qin Zhongnian said with some dissatisfaction: "Old Wu, you are talking about the past."

Only then did Wu Weiqin realize that he had fired the map cannon, including Qin Zhongnian, and quickly corrected him with a smile: "That's right, I'm talking about the past, not the present Lin Yiji."

Tang Zifeng asked: "Chief Engineer Qin, do you mean that if Xi Ye comes to our door now, can you design such a heavy-duty boring and milling machine?"

"This... should be possible." Qin Zhongnian said, with some hesitation clearly in his words.

Tang Zifeng smiled and said: "General Manager Qin, this is not your style of speaking. Whether it is OK or not, please give me a happy opinion. If you dare to pat your chest and say OK, the worst I can do is go to Xiye after the Chinese New Year. , put a brick against that Zheng Mingyuan’s head and ask him to give us his business.”

Everyone laughed. As early as when Tang Zifeng recovered the 2 million arrears from Jinche, there was a rumor in the factory that he got the money back by threatening Song Fulai with a brick, so Tang Zifeng and Ban Zhuan got the money back. It became a meme for Lin Yiji. Now that he himself talks about such a meme, everyone finds it funny.

After laughing for a while, Zhou Heng asked Tang Zifeng: "Xiao Tang, are you really sure that you can take over this business from Xi Ye?"

Tang Zifeng pointed at Qin Zhongnian and said, "The premise is that Chief Engineer Qin and the others can't let go. Otherwise, if I take the business over and we can't eat it, it will be embarrassing."

Qin Zhongnian said: "I can't guarantee this. Heavy boring and milling machines also have different specifications, involving processing depth, precision, CNC degree, etc. I need to see the specific needs to determine whether we have the ability to win them. Some Even if our technical system can be designed, the production side may not be able to produce it. Lao Wu, do you think this is the case?"

Wu Weiqin nodded and said: "That's true, our production level is also limited. If the other party's requirements are too high, we really may not be able to produce it."

Tang Zifeng said: "That's difficult. During this period of time, I followed Guan Zhiming to catch up on my skills, and I barely knew what a lathe and a milling machine were. How high the production technology requirements were, how could I do it? Do you understand?"

Zhu Yachao smiled and said: "Xiao Tang, don't you have a gold medal follower? Take him with you and you will understand everything."

"Director Zhu, are you talking about Han Weichang?" Tang Zifeng asked.

"Who else could it be besides him?" Zhu Yachao said, "Who in the factory doesn't know that Han Weichang has made a lot of money by following you out. Just for the first batch of balers, the commission he can get is 40,000 to 50,000. Everyone in the factory is red-eyed.”

Tang Zifeng said disdainfully: "If you are jealous, then go do business. The baler was able to sell so well this time because Han Weichang had an idea when he was in Jinyao and came up with the design of a thin baler. If If Lao Han applied for a patent on this design, he would earn more than 40,000 to 50,000 yuan in patent fees alone. What right do these people have to be jealous of Lao Han's income?"

"Speaking of income, this is the focus of our factory director's office meeting today." Zhou Heng interjected, "As for the matter over Xi Ye, I will discuss it with Xiao Tang and Lao Qin. If it is feasible, we will discuss it after Nian Xiaotang went for a trip to see if there was a chance to get it. Now let’s get back to the topic and talk about income.”

Zhang Shu smiled and echoed: "Haha, that's right, the world is big, so eating is not as big a matter. The issue of income is indeed the most important. Let's get back to the topic."

Everyone stopped making noise and calmed down to listen to Zhou Heng's words. Zhou Heng said: "I have just mentioned the first point. February's salary will be paid on the 30th, and another two months' salary will be paid in addition. A total of 3.5 million will be paid. Do you have any objections?"

"No comment!"

"We should also repay wages so that employees can have a good year."

"It's true, employees have been suffering for too long."

"Haha, after hearing everyone say this, I don't dare to raise any opinions..."

Everyone laughed and agreed. This was actually a consensus reached by the factory leaders long ago.

In the past two years, due to the poor financial situation, the employees of Linyi Machinery were owed more than ten months of wages. If we had not found some ways to supplement our families by doing odd jobs outside, I am afraid that the more than 20,000 employees and their families in the whole factory would have been Just starved to death. Now that the factory has made some money, it is reasonable to give everyone a supplementary salary.

"The second point involves what Lao Zhu just said. Some time ago, we stipulated that sales staff can withdraw sales commissions from their performance, and later we agreed to give bonuses to front-line production workers. The sales commissions have the largest amount. It was Han Weichang. The amount calculated by the Accounting Office was more than 52,000 yuan. This was the commission for the first batch of balers. Later, some customers in Jingnan and Mingxi requested additional balers, and they also contacted Han Weichang. According to regulations, He also needs to extract a commission. But in this way, Han Weichang can get a commission of more than 50,000 yuan alone. Will everyone worry about causing public discussion?" Zhou Heng asked.

Zhu Yachao said: "This is not something to worry about, but the people are already talking about it. There are roughly two opinions I heard. One opinion is that the system is unreasonable, and Han Weichang has not contributed much, so why Take so much money. The second opinion is more interesting. Everyone thinks that it is impossible for the factory to pay Han Weichang so much money, but in this way, it is equivalent to the factory saying nothing. Everyone wants to see what the factory is planning to do in the future. In the name of defaulting on your debt."

"There is such a discussion, why didn't I hear it?" Wu Weiqin said in surprise.

Tang Zifeng said: "That's because Director Wu is aloof and disconnected from the masses. Grassroots people like me can hear these discussions, which are roughly the same as what Director Zhu summarized."

"You little Tang! What nonsense are you talking about!" Wu Weiqin was a little embarrassed and scolded Tang Zifeng, "Why am I so superior? I'm just busy with production matters during this period. I don't touch the ground all day long. How can I have time to go there?" Listen to these rumors."

Zhou Heng said: "I have also heard some comments. However, I did not hear the latter one mentioned by Lao Zhu. However, Xiao Tang reported it to me twice. It seems that the employees are still worried about our new team. Those who have doubts do not believe that we can fulfill our promises.”

Zhu Yachao asked: "Director Zhou, do you think we should fulfill our promise?"

"Of course." Zhou Heng said without hesitation, "The masses themselves do not trust us. If we continue to break our promises, the new team's image among the masses will be completely destroyed. No matter what we say in the future, the masses will not believe it. Business We have already discussed the commission. Now that it has been decided, we can pay as much as we should. We must not default on the payment just because one person gets too much money."

"But if this happens, I'm afraid most employees will have objections." Wu Weiqin said worriedly, "Not to mention Han Weichang getting more than 50,000 yuan in commission, this time in the workshop, rewards were based on merit, and the heads of each workshop It’s a bit unreliable. Everyone has been eating from the big pot for too long. This time the factory said bonuses will be calculated based on the amount of work completed. Some workers can get hundreds, while some workers can’t get a penny. If this result is announced Come out, I guess the workshop will turn into a mess."

"It's better to be chaotic." Zhou Heng said calmly, "Only when everyone can truly feel the difference between working more and working less, and how they use their brains, will the factory be energetic."

Wu Weiqin said with a grimace: "I understand the truth, but after all, half of the workers are involved. Rao Shutian and Cheng Wei asked me this morning when the bonus will be paid. They are worried that once the bonus is paid out, this It will be difficult to survive the new year, and those workers who did not receive bonuses will have their doors torn down."

Zhou Heng said: "Tell them, don't worry. Before the Spring Festival, we paid three months' wages, which is enough for everyone to have a good New Year. So my idea is to wait until after the New Year to get back the sales commission and bonus." Let’s go. When the time comes and there is chaos in the factory, let it be chaos. Only after the chaos can we bring about great order.”

"That's okay." Wu Weiqin nodded. After that, he smiled and said to everyone, "To be honest, I don't plan to go home during the Chinese New Year, so I plan to stay in the factory to deal with these troubles. Now Zhou Factory I was told that the bonus would be paid after the Chinese New Year, which saved me."

Zhou Heng said with a smile: "Everyone has worked hard in the past three months. Let's go back to reunite with our families during the Chinese New Year. Here at the factory..."

"I'm on duty!" Zhu Yachao volunteered.
