Dashan Makes a Living 1984 - Chapter 229: 225: Go and stay at will

And a corner in the southwest corner is where the employees live.

There is a cafeteria and two rows of dormitories. When I went to see it, weeds grew around the cafeteria, as if it hadn’t been used for a long time, just like the deserted houses in horror movies.

As for the few staff dormitories, there are not many that can remain intact.

Most of the glass has been broken, and a few rooms are better, but there are still sporadic defects. The people living in them blocked the holes with plastic paper and lived in them temporarily.

The employees in this brick and tile factory in Qingquan Town are not only locals, but also many people from other places.

In the early years, when the brick and tile factory had a lot of orders and the profits were not bad, everyone was working in the factory, and it was also lively.

But because of poor management and various complicated reasons, the factory is like this now.

Because the factory cannot pay wages, many local employees simply do not come to the factory on weekdays, and do farm work directly at home, and come back when the factory has work.

Many out-of-town employees have no choice.

They either choose to leave their jobs and return to their hometowns because they can’t live on.

Either do a small business nearby.

The people who really stayed in the factory were mostly helpless or honest people.

Then these people can only shrink in the dormitory, and they have nowhere to go anyway.

If there is some sporadic work in the factory, they will do it. If there is no work, they will insist on it.

Cultivate a little land to grow vegetables in the yard of the brick and tile factory. Although life is not good, at least I can survive.

Wang Tianxiao took Zhang Wenyuan and Wu Ping around for three full days before completing the entire brick and tile factory.

While reading, he took a notebook and took notes while drawing, and from time to time he used a ruler or a rope to measure the distance.

Sometimes, I stare at the things in front of me for a long time, and sometimes I walk back and forth excitedly.

Whenever this time, his eyes released the light of wisdom.

Can see light directly.

Both Wu Ping and Zhang Wenyuan have known Wang Tianxiao for a long time and know his habits, so they are not surprised.

If he wants to leave, the two will follow, and if he needs to do something, the two will cooperate.

Bring the original director and deputy director of the factory.

together formed the exploration team.

According to the negotiations between Zhang Wenyuan and the town government, the first condition for agreeing to his transformation is not to abandon the original employees in the factory. Many of you have been with the factory for a long time.

There are even some veterans who built factories.

They are all people who have a lot of affection with the factory. If they are suddenly abandoned, not only will they have no way to live, but they will also be unable to sustenance emotionally.

Zhang Wenyuan agreed.

He chose two ways to accept.

Choose to continue to be an employee of the brick and tile factory, but the status was changed from nationalization to privatization.

You can also choose to be laid off after compensation at one time.

Calculated according to working years.

An annual subsidy of 100 yuan.

As a result, those who stayed and those who took the money away were almost evenly split.

Some people have worked for 20 or 30 years and can get two to three thousand yuan in compensation at a time. For them, it is almost a huge sum of money. If they save money, they can spend a long time.

Modern people always talk about inflation and the issue of money being worthless.

But in fact, it is two thousand years later that the inflation is severe. Although the price has risen before, money has become worthless, after all, there is still a limit.

The rate of progress is quite slow.

Three thousand yuan can really take a long time.

Solved the problem of resigned employees, and there are about 100 remaining employees.

These people just stayed, but it doesn’t mean they can use it.

Among them, there are many people who don’t work hard and just want to pretend to be numbers.

Both Wang Tianxiao and Zhang Wenyuan knew this.

I just feel that there is no need to deal with them for the time being.

After privatization, there will be no big pot of food. No matter what position, those who are able will work more and get more. If they are not good at work, they will be eliminated.

The original director and deputy director of the brick and tile factory stayed on.

These two people were going to leave their jobs, but they were persuaded by Wang Tianxiao to keep them with high salaries.

Both of them are people with technical backgrounds, not vain management bastards.

Moreover, both of them are also veterans of the brick and tile factory, and it can be said that they have witnessed the construction, glory and decline of the brick and tile factory.

I am quite familiar with the process, equipment and existing problems here.

Wang Tianxiao believes that the problems in brick and tile factories are not a problem of their management, but a defect of ownership.

People are lazy, since they can get money in a dawdly way, they are still willing to work hard.

Conversely, at work, those who are unwilling to work hard will affect those who work hard.

This is the reason why we should not worry about scarcity but about inequality.

It would be great if everyone worked hard and got paid accordingly.

It is obvious that some people just don’t work hard, but their income is not much at all.

That will definitely make those who work hard feel resentful.

I feel very unfair.

After a long time, I will feel that I am stupid and there is no need to work hard all the time. Why not fish in troubled waters like others.

Everyone is tired.

With this kind of thinking, people’s life will gradually become worse.

Negative emotions and behaviors are inherently more likely to spread.

Over time, there are no more people who really work hard.

Work mentality is absolutely work efficiency and quality.

Since everyone is like this, the speed of work and the quality of work can be imagined how bad it is.

At the end, naturally there is nothing left.

The brand of the factory is greatly affected, the benefits are reduced, the income of all the owners is reduced, and the performance is lost.

At this time, those who are willing to do things, feel that the cost-effectiveness of working here is not high, and they will leave.

The rest, except for some people who really can’t help it, are those guys who are already fishing in troubled waters.

Factory, that is, in name only.

This brick and tile factory is a typical example.

When Wang Tianxiao ordered bricks and tiles, he found that their delivery speed was very slow, which was unimaginably slow.

He went to the brick factory and found that many discarded bricks were produced in the workshop.

In the face of such quality accidents, they did not summarize or learn from experience. Everyone was still calm, and the workers were still talking and laughing, looking quite relaxed, without the slightest sense of urgency or guilt.

He knew that this factory was completely over.

That’s why he wanted to buy them.

The project is a good project, but neither the upper management nor the actual managers of the factory cherish the opportunity nor see the future.

Leave the opportunity to yourself.

The original factory director was Zhang Yang, and the deputy factory director was Cao Wei, both of whom were close to fifty years old.

They can be kept, and they have mixed feelings in their hearts.

On the one hand, I am very relieved that I don’t have to leave the factory where I have worked for half my life.

On the other hand, seeing that the factory I have been in charge of for so long has become someone else’s, and I have to follow a few young people at a very old age, I feel very uncomfortable.

I can’t save face.

So, when Wang Tianxiao dragged them to transfer to the factory area together, they were not very happy, and basically followed behind without expressing their attitude. If Wang Tianxiao didn’t ask them anything, they would keep silent.

Wang Tianxiao saw it and was not angry.

Very understandable.

He was going to use them as experts, so how could he put little shoes on them because of this.

Old people, old experts from state-owned enterprises, and have been leaders for so many years, how can they have no character.

If you can accept it all at once, then something really happened.

Three days later.

The small conference room of the brick factory.

Zhang Wenyuan, Wang Tianxiao, Wu Ping, Zhang Yang, and Cao Wei sat at the conference table.

In front of each person is a cup of porcelain tea mug, which contains hot water that has just been added, curling up and exuding heat.

This meeting room was used by middle-level and above cadres in the factory before to hold administrative meetings. The layout is not bad, and the furniture is of good quality.

It’s just that Zhang Yang was sitting at the front, but now it’s Zhang Wenyuan.

Outside the meeting room window, you can just see the chimney of the brick factory tens of meters high.

In the early years, smoke was emitted from the chimney almost every day, but now, the tallest chimney has not been used for a long time.

“Well, let’s have a brief meeting.” Zhang Wenyuan looked at Wang Tianxiao and said with a smile: “After our Wang… Mr. Wang took us to inspect all the places in the brick and tile factory in detail, everyone must have seen the current situation of the factory. If not If it is changed, then this factory will still be a mess, and whoever holds it in their hands will be garbage.”

When Zhang Wenyuan said this, he didn’t look at the two old factory managers, but they were still a little embarrassed when they heard it.

After all, this factory has become a bit of a mess in their hands.

Said it had nothing to do with them, and they themselves couldn’t admit it.

“I’m a businessman, and everything I do needs to be profitable, otherwise I won’t do it. So, when I bought this factory, the ultimate goal is to make money. Everyone here must understand this.

Okay, I don’t want to be too long-winded. I have communicated with Mr. Wang, and we have basically decided to pay attention to some things. Later, Mr. Wang will tell you how to carry out the next step.

However, before talking about things, I still have something to say in advance. Since the ownership of the factory has changed, the corresponding management has also changed. So let me first talk about your specific work arrangements.

As for me, although I am the actual owner of the factory, I don’t get involved in the management too much. I have a lot of things to worry about, and this factory is just a small part of my industry.

Therefore, I will use the name of the general manager, but the specific matters mainly depend on the implementation of each of you.

The specific arrangement is as follows: Wu Ping is the director of the factory and has full authority to manage all affairs of the factory. ”

Wu Ping was taken aback, he looked at Wang Tianxiao subconsciously, but saw Wang Tianxiao smiling at him, it was a trusting and friendly smile.

“Zhang Yang is the chief engineer of the factory, responsible for production technology improvement, guidance, new employee training and other work.”

Zhang Yang was also taken aback after hearing this, and then nodded.

He is quite satisfied with this position. In the early days, the position of chief engineer was almost at the same level as the factory director.

He knew that Zhang Wenyuan gave him enough dignity.

The discomfort in my heart has improved a lot.

People of his age take many things lightly, but the only thing he hopes to never lose is the respect others have for them.

“Cao Wei served as the deputy director of the factory, in charge of production. It was under the leadership of the factory director Wu Ping.”

“Okay.” Cao Wei also nodded.

His position has not changed, so his mood is quite stable.

After the three of them got their positions, they all looked at Wang Tianxiao, curious in their hearts. Wang Tianxiao, a young man, was obviously very important in Zhang Wenyuan’s heart. What position would he leave for him?

Zhang Wenyuan noticed everyone’s doubts and guesses, and smiled.

“As for Mr. Wang, his identity is very special. What is his specific role? You just need to treat him as me. That is to say, if it is what he said or the instructions he issued, you should just follow them. As I issued. But if there is a disagreement between my order and his order, his order shall prevail.”

When Zhang Wenyuan said this, not only Zhang Yang and Cao Wei were shocked, but Wu Ping was also very surprised.

As Zhang Wenyuan’s brother-in-law, he naturally knew that Zhang Wenyuan was responsible for all the capital input in this factory, just like a prefabricated factory.

But he actually handed over all the power of life and death to Wang Tianxiao.

Even though he thought that the prefab factory was at the bottom in the past, he was still a little surprised.

After all, the investment in prefabrication yards cannot be compared with brick and tile factories.

The investment here is almost twice as much as there.

Looking at it this way, he really believes in Wang Tianxiao. Even though he knew that Wang Tianxiao was indeed capable, he was an outsider after all.

Among the crowd, only Wang Tianxiao himself was not surprised.

He glanced at Zhang Wenyuan and smiled faintly, “Everyone, don’t misinterpret Mr. Zhang’s meaning, as if I have the final say on everything here. No, Mr. Zhang means that you are responsible for all the management of the factory.

As for me, I will only do more things in the early stage, and may make some requirements, but these requirements are within the scope of compliance. And all the requirements, I will communicate with you before, and I will not blindly arrange them.

In addition, when the factory basically resumes normal operation, I basically don’t care about the rest of it. I also have a lot of things to do. When the time comes, Wu Ping will be in charge of the comprehensive management here, the factory manager Cao will be in charge of the production management, and Mr. Zhang will be in charge of technology development and maintenance. Just do your job.

In short, after we acquired this factory, there must be many things that need to be changed, and it cannot be the same as the original method. Because the history of the past few decades has shown that the old behavior is actually difficult to maintain the normal operation of the factory, and it will only make the company worse and worse, and eventually die.

Therefore, we will keep some of the original factory’s excellent and well-done areas, get rid of some old problems, and finally make the company look brand-new, and finally move towards the right path of high-speed and healthy development.

But here, I ask for some things in advance and make changes in the early stage. I have some requirements. If you have opinions, we can discuss them together. If your methods and suggestions are better, then I can also adopt your opinions. But if you don’t raise any opinions, then you are accepting my request, and in that case, you must strictly implement it after you go down.

The person I don’t like the most is the kind of guy who is obedient and obedient, that is, he does one thing to the face and the other behind the back. Our company doesn’t need such a person. If I find out, I don’t dare to look like before, have any qualifications or status, and I will ask him to leave immediately.

On this point, as I said before, the few people and other people who will be managed after going down must be highly recognized.

The last thing I want to say is that I am a person who does things. The reason why I come to this water is not to fish in troubled waters, nor is it a joke. I really want to make this place a good place and make this Qingquan Town a pillar. The industry restarts.

So, a lot of my work in the future will develop in this direction, and I hope everyone can do the same. ”

Wang Tianxiao said a lot in one breath.

His eyes are very sincere, and he always wears a faint smile.

Wu Ping has known him for several months, and knows that this is what he said from the bottom of his heart, so there is no surprise.

Mainly Zhang Yang and Cao Wei.

While Wang Tianxiao was speaking, the two kept looking at each other and exchanging glances, probably saying that this young man, who seemed harmless to humans and animals, was unexpectedly a stubborn stubble.

As leaders who have been working in the workplace, especially in state-owned enterprises for so long, they naturally don’t have a half-hearted city like ordinary young people.

Basically since Wang Tianxiao spoke, they have been thinking about who they are speaking to.

What disturbed them even more was that sometimes they felt that what Wang Tianxiao said was too much and made them very uncomfortable, but after listening to it for a while, they felt that what he said was very reasonable.

Sometimes I feel depressed, but listening to Wang Tianxiao’s candid voice, it’s hard to say anything.

Waiting until Wang Tianxiao finished speaking completely and became quiet, the two of them suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, as if they were waiting for some kind of trial before it ended.

It was like listening to another story, and finally reached the final ending.

They looked at Zhang Wenyuan, wanting to see what the boss was thinking at the moment, but when they looked over, they found that Zhang Wenyuan was smiling faintly from the beginning to the end.

Not only did he not say a word of displeasure, even his expression did not change.

This can only explain one problem, he trusts Wang Tianxiao very much, he is willing to accept whatever Wang Tianxiao says, and has no opinion.

In this way, this matter has basically been finalized.

There is no room for negotiation.

so be it.

Now they are no longer the big pot rice they used to be, and they are not factory managers or leaders.

Now the young man sitting in front is the boss, and the younger one on the side is the decision maker.

“Okay, I just talked about the overall requirements, now I will talk about my big ideas in detail.”

Wang Tianxiao noticed the changes in the eyes and expressions of the two factory directors, and knew that they could not fully accept it for the time being.

He doesn’t care.

He has a certain respect for this kind of skilled senior.

But the premise is that they must know the rules, know what to do, what not to do, and what kind of attitude to face new changes.

If you still stay in the past history, then in comparison, this kind of person can only be eliminated.

If they are really smart, they should understand that their era is over, and now it is good to have a place to play their spare energy, and it will never be possible to focus on them as before.

Wang Tianxiao is willing to give the two of them a period of observation.

This is also the result of discussions with Zhang Wenyuan.

“We have basically turned the factory around in the past three days, and we will find that our factory still has a lot of problems. The main problem is that we have not made full use of the existing resources of the factory, so that a large area of ​​land is wasted.

In addition, we lack basic maintenance of equipment and facilities, resulting in the scrapping of many things that could have been repaired and reused, which is also a huge loss.

And, we have almost no care and care for our employees. Look at the canteen in our factory, what is that, and the stuff made in it, the employees can eat to their satisfaction.

Also, the staff dormitory is built in the coldest southwest corner, where the sun can’t be seen all day long, how do the staff live, it doesn’t make people sick…”

When Wang Tianxiao talked about it, both Zhang Yang and Cao Wei found it incredible.

They thought, seeing Wang Tianxiao’s attitude, the first thing to talk about must be the reform of many business aspects of the factory, and they have long been prepared and waiting.

Unexpectedly, under the thunder, the raindrops were so small.

Just talked about trivial things, not even serious things.

As he listened, his expression couldn’t help but relax.

Even released a bit of relaxation.

But both Zhang Wenyuan and Wu Ping were familiar with Wang Tianxiao, knowing that he had acquired the factory, they were not in a hurry to make money, or worried about business matters.

It’s employees and treatment.

In Wang Tianxiao’s words, if an enterprise wants to survive for a long time and radiate a strong combat effectiveness, it must be the spirit from the inside out. If the inside is not done well, so that employees cannot see the future of the enterprise, then they will not be able to Really get to work.

Without the heartfelt support of employees, any good direction and strategy of the company will be greatly compromised on the execution side.

It’s like a battle on the battlefield. No matter how much the commander has mastered Sun Tzu’s Art of War and how much he knows about the enemy, if there are no soldiers who work together to obey orders and charge bravely, no matter how powerful the commander is, it will be useless.

It is also impossible to win the final victory of the war.

Sure enough, Wang Tianxiao immediately arranged a lot of measures regarding the current situation of the factory.

Including except for the production that must be opened, all other people are called together to clean up all the main parts of the entire factory.

It also includes redesignating the area on the north side, rebuilding the factory canteen, and building new staff dormitories.

In the factory area, a small-scale child care institution was specially built, and experienced women were hired to take charge of it. If the employees in the factory area cannot take care of their children because of work, they can take the children to the nursery school in the factory area for temporary storage, so as not to worry about the future.

Rehiring staff.

At present, there are about 100 employees, including some old, weak, sick, and disabled, or people who are just filling up the number. Another 400 people will be recruited. In the original team, according to the previous work attitude, four outstanding people will be selected to be responsible for the new recruits. employees are trained.

Wait until you are proficient, and implement the system of five shifts and three shifts.

That is to say, five shifts go to work in rotation, and each shift has an eight-hour system.

Guarantee that three shifts are on duty every day, and two shifts are resting.
