Ding Guo was disgusted by a certain period novel she read. A character with her exact name and surname had a persona: a saintly female supporting character who would sacrifice everything for her fa...
Chapter 62 62 That day, Su Dayong, the deputy director of Fengning Food Factory...
Zhao Hui was startled and said quickly: "I'm not, I didn't!"
"How could there be none? Didn't you whisper to us yesterday afternoon, saying that Ding Guo was just a little girl and with her qualifications she would only be an apprentice in our factory, so how could she be qualified to guide us? Didn't you say that? If you didn't get involved, how could we be dissatisfied with Comrade Ding?" Meng Xuejuan was fed up and said unhappily.
Actually, they had no grudge against Ding Guo. It was Zhao Hui who muttered to them yesterday afternoon, which gave them a bad impression of Ding Guo.
Zhao Hui didn't just say these things. She also flattered herself and two other senior employees of similar age. Otherwise, how could she have the confidence to think that she didn't need Ding Guo's guidance today and could complete the most appropriate material ratio with their years of experience?
But she was too embarrassed to say this now.
In fact, if the leader hadn't been there, Meng Xuejuan wouldn't have revealed her true colors so quickly. But Ding Guo had exposed their actions on the spot, and there was no way they would leave a bad impression on the leader. They might even be kicked out of the study group, so she had to take someone down with her.
Since they couldn't pull anyone else down, they had to pull down Zhao Hui, who was using them as a gun.
Zhao Hui miscalculated. Some old employees love to bully new employees. They are also used to being arrogant in front of young leaders and colleagues, and they are not submissive to this or that. Similarly, this kind of people will not suffer any loss.
Once their own interests are damaged, they will bite as many as possible and will never suffer a loss and then stand by and watch others continue to prosper.
Zhao Hui's face flushed as she tried to argue: "Even if I said that, did I ask you to target him? I was just unhappy and grumbled a few words, so what? I didn't go against Comrade Ding today..."
After he finished speaking, he realized that he had spoken too quickly. This seemed to be in line with what Ding Guo said, and he immediately broke out in a sweat.
Meng Xuejuan and the others were not stupid. The more they listened, the darker their faces became. Wasn't this what Comrade Ding meant by using them as a gun?
If it weren't for the fact that this was a food workshop, where anyone who touched someone would be severely punished, Meng Xuejuan and the others would have wanted to scratch Zhao Hui's face.
What else did Wang Hongju not understand after reading this? She was immediately furious.
Comrade Ding was really targeted intentionally.
She was in a dilemma. Once the director found out about this, she would definitely be scolded.
But Zhao Hui was not a member of her team, so Wang Hongju could not punish her directly. She called Zhao Hui's team leader over and asked him to investigate.
Team leader Zhao Hui gritted her teeth and led the people away.
Without even waiting for the results of the investigation, Zhao Hui's team leader directly replaced the person and called another female worker in the group to come over and learn.
As for Meng Xuejuan.
Regardless of whether he was willing or not, he apologized to Ding Guo with a stiff smile.
Ding Guo waved his hand and didn't let Wang Hongju call her team leader to come and deal with it.
She will only be here for a week at most, there's no need to offend anyone.
She had just seen that this person's work was really good, but he was a little too senior.
If she just raised her hand and let Meng Xuejuan go at this time, no matter if Meng Xuejuan was doing it out of guilt or something else, she would fully cooperate with her work.
Ding Guo’s judgment was correct. From then on, Meng Xuejuan really became the one who cooperated with her most among the few people. Her quick hands and feet were a pleasure to watch.
The materials were re-weighed, and everyone divided the work and cooperated with Ding Guo's guidance. They operated and worked in an orderly manner.
Bread is not like mooncakes which need to be fryed again. You can taste the result right after it comes out of the oven and tell right away whether it is a success or not.
While she was observing the temperature of the oven, someone from the second workshop came over and called Ding Guo, saying that the mooncakes were out of the oven and asked her to come over and take a look.
Wang Hongju was reluctant to let her go. Comrade Ding Guo, although young, was very experienced in her way of doing things. When she gave guidance, she sounded like a master baker with ten years of experience. The more they talked, the more she felt that this girl had something.
We were chatting animatedly when people from Workshop 2 came to interrupt.
Although they are not in the same workshop, they know each other. Sometimes when there are some special production tasks, people from the two workshops are seconded back and forth, so they are familiar with each other.
Wang Hongju started joking when she saw the person coming, saying, "Yulian, our bread will be baked soon and we're waiting to give it to Comrade Ding. What's the point of dragging him away now?"
Qian Yulian rolled her eyes, first took Ding Guo's arm, then smiled and said, "What's the problem with this? If you are willing, you can send it to Comrade Ding even to the ends of the earth. Why can't you send it to him just across a workshop?"
Wang Hongju's eloquence was not as good as their director's. She pointed at Qian Yulian and said unhappily, "We definitely have something in mind. We will send it to Comrade Ding in a while. You'll be so greedy."
Qian Yulian rolled her eyes at her, then smiled and took Ding Guo away.
Although the freshly baked mooncakes needed to be greased, Ding Guo's previous experience showed that the sample was a success.
The people in the study group here also compared the freshly produced samples with the batch made yesterday. There are indeed some differences that can be seen at a glance, and they can't help but admire Ding Guo's eyesight again.
Everyone gathered around Ding Guo, summarized their insights during the production process, and raised a few new questions, which Ding Guo answered. They will try to make another batch, and if there are no problems, they will officially put it into production.
At noon, the two directors actually treated Ding Guo to a meal. Afterwards, Ding Guo made it clear that she would eat with everyone else in the future and there was no need for special treatment.
Director Huang had heard about what happened in the workshop. He was so angry that he apologized to Ding Guo in a low voice when Director Dong was not paying attention, and helped her apply for two kilograms of cake tickets, which would be distributed when the guidance work was completed.
Pastry tickets are still quite rare these days, so Ding Guo didn't hesitate to accept the kindness.
Director Dong knew that Ding Guo lived far away and suggested that they apply for a single dormitory, but Ding Guo declined because she had not finished making her sweet potato noodles yet.
Just looking at this situation, she was too embarrassed to apply for the ticket subsidy. After all, people could arrange a single dormitory for her, but she didn't want to live there.
In the next few days, Ding Guo traveled back and forth between home and the second factory. In addition to supervising the production of mooncakes and bread and helping to adjust the puff pastry recipe at the factory, Director Huang also asked her to help in the research and development of black sesame lava bread.
Because I had experience with making lava mooncakes, I just had to adjust the recipe slightly for bread, and after two small batch experiments I was successful.
When I get home from get off work, I prepare my own snacks.
The custom-made iron griddle has been received. The first batch of bread ended up being burnt, so we will continue the experiment.
Fortunately, she knew that she was not very good at baking bread in this way, so the amount was very small, and it was not completely wasted after being burnt. She peeled off the burnt outer layer and ate the softer part inside.
Although I have to get up early every day, I still get enough sleep because of the cheating tool called space. I also regulate my body with well water and iced black tea, so I don’t feel tired even though I’m busy every day.
A week later, the guidance work at the Second Factory was completed, and Ding Guo took the welfare cakes, welfare cake tickets, a towel and a teacup given to her by the Second Factory.
In addition to the benefits that Director Huang applied for her, there were also those applied for by Director Dong.
The two directors did not give up and tried to win over Ding Guo again, but gave up regretfully after making sure that she had no intention of changing jobs.
The wages will be transferred to Factory 1 and paid out together with the subsidy from the food factory.
After returning to the food factory, I received news of job transfer.
The job transfer does not mean that Ding Guo will be directly transferred to a cadre position, no longer doing the more tiring job of raw mold shaping, but will be responsible for the product material ratio.
Chen Xiufang also encouraged her to speak up if she felt there were any adjustments that could be made to the old formula, and the factory would be happy to cooperate in making the improvements.
It’s so true.
Dante Guo no longer intended to be overly proactive. She only realized belatedly after changing the puff pastry recipe that this was equivalent to overturning the recipe developed by the old people in the factory, which was indeed a bit reckless.
Although no one has said anything about her so far, she can't wait until someone treats her coldly and she doesn't realize how she has offended them.
Of course, product improvements are still needed, but she should wait until she has worked honestly for a while and has understood the situation in the factory before slowly making suggestions.
In short, you can be positive, but you can no longer be mindless positive.
In addition to the job transfer, there is also her rank. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the factory will hold a commendation meeting, at which time she will be officially promoted to a first-level worker. Before, it was only promoted verbally, and her salary and benefits were paid according to the first-level worker. This time, the promotion was made directly at the commendation meeting.
After all, Ding Guo was not nominated through the factory's regular assessment, so he had to have a title so that he could be brought up at the commendation meeting after the holiday.
Chen Xiufang suggested to her: "Based on your performance, you will be promoted to Level 2 worker faster than others, but it is better for you to make some more achievements before that. Even if you don't launch new products, you can help optimize the formulas of our old products."
Ding Guo: ...
Just as she was thinking about not being too aggressive, the little whip fell gently.
"Team leader, I will work hard." Ding Guo said, "No matter what, I have been in the factory for too short a time and have not participated in the production of all the products in the factory."
Chen Xiufang smiled and said, "Don't worry, just keep it in mind. Also, don't take the jokes I made with Qiao Xiuli seriously. No matter whether it's bread, biscuits, or snacks, any kind of new products and improvements are fine. Don't have any psychological burden in this regard. Just do whatever you have in mind and strive to become a master chef in the factory as soon as possible, and the youngest master chef at that."
Ding Guo sighed that these days, most people are really simple and lovely.
There are bad people like Yue Hongmei and Ding Nianjun, and there are good people like Chen Xiufang who wish she could become a pastry chef tomorrow.
During this period when Ding Guo was busy, Ding Nianjun, who was identified as a bad guy by Ding Guo, actually catered to the character that Ding Guo had set for her.
A phone call was made to Pan Dingfeng's unit, and the couple was sticking to each other for a long time. Ding Nianjun naturally revealed that Ding Guo had found a job.
Of course, she would not directly flatter Ding Guo. Instead, she held the microphone and said with relief: "She finally has a job. With work as her priority, she should not be able to take care of the family. My parents will also worry less. I also hope that Ding Guo can forget the grudge between us."
Because of Ding Guo's report, Pan Dingfeng was severely punished by his father, and his relationship with Nianjun was also not decent in front of his parents. When he heard Ding Nianjun say that Ding Guo had a job, his hand holding the microphone tightened, and his voice was a little gloomy: "Did Uncle Ding arrange it for her? What unit?"
"Dad didn't arrange a job for her. She found one herself, at Fengning Food Factory..."
"Fengning Food Factory, right?"
Pan Dingfeng hung up the phone with a sneer.
On this day, Su Dayong, deputy director of Fengning Food Factory, received a call.
