"If it doesn't work, it seems we really can only open our own factory."
Shen Anan sighed.
She actually went to the small private factory yesterday and saw that the craftsmanship was really poor and the management was very chaotic. It was really not suitable for cooperation.
It’s not impossible to go to Guangcheng, but it’s too much travel and the quantity she wants is not much, so it’s not cost-effective.
If she runs her own factory, the risk is actually quite high. The most important thing is that there is no one to help her manage it!
In fact, when Shen Anan was chatting with Deputy Director Liang just now, she asked him if he had any idea of going out on his own because she thought that if she opened her own factory, she could let him help her manage it.
It’s a pity that Deputy Director Liang has no intention of going into business.
Headache!
On the other side, at the state-owned garment factory, the factory director and his relatives were not idle. They gathered together and whispered. The factory director felt that Deputy Director Liang acted on his own and did not take him, the director, seriously. He felt very uncomfortable, as if he had eaten a fly.
"Tell me, how could Lao Liang be so ungrateful? I am the factory director after all, but he made the decision on his own without even saying hello." The factory director complained to his relatives while smoking a cigarette.
The relatives also fanned the flames: "That's right, Director, Lao Liang really doesn't take you seriously. We have to teach him a lesson."
As a result, the factory director and his relatives began to make things difficult for Deputy Director Liang and tried to trip him up at work. They either disrupted his work plans, or picked on his work results, and even said bad things about him behind his back in an attempt to isolate him.
Lao Liang felt unprecedented pressure at work. He felt like he was being pressed under a rock and was extremely uncomfortable. He knew that the factory director and his men were deliberately making things difficult for him, but he could do nothing about it.
"Deputy Director Liang, the director said that your report is not well written. Please write a new one." A relative said arrogantly, holding an unimportant report.
Deputy Director Liang felt aggrieved, but he could only swallow his anger and said, "Okay, I'll change it."
He began to work overtime and hard, hoping to satisfy the factory manager and others, but no matter how hard he tried, those people always found fault.
It’s just that Lao Liang has worked in the factory for many years. He is an honest man and willing to help. The workers have their own standards and naturally have a high opinion of him. The factory director and his relatives were trying to make things difficult for Lao Liang. Many workers saw it and felt very uncomfortable, as if they had eaten a sour orange and were frowning because of the sourness.
A few days later, the factory director and his relatives wanted to cause trouble for Lao Liang again. They planned to find fault with him in public during a meeting and embarrass him. But they didn't expect that the workers had already agreed to protect Lao Liang.
"Lao Liang, how did you make this work plan? This, this, and this are all unreasonable." The factory director pointed at the report at the meeting with a sarcastic tone.
When the workers heard this, they were shocked. Someone immediately stood up and said, "Hey, we've seen Deputy Director Liang's work plan, and it's quite reasonable. And the deputy director has been looking for cooperation for our factory, and he's never idle for a moment. Director, aren't you being too critical?"
Others followed suit: "That's right, that's right, Deputy Director Liang has worked so hard, why are you nitpicking?"
When the factory director and his relatives saw this situation, they were very angry, but they couldn't show it because it was hard to offend the public.
Lao Liang stood aside and watched the workers stand up for themselves. He felt so touched that he felt warmed like drinking a bowl of hot soup. He knew that all his years of work were not in vain and these workers were his brothers.
"Thank you everyone, thank you everyone." Lao Liang thanked them repeatedly, his eyes a little moist.
Seeing the workers standing up for Lao Liang, the factory director's anger grew as if fuel was poured on it.
This clearly shows that they don't take him seriously! What's up? It's the other way around, right?
However, he also knew that if he continued to openly target Lao Liang, the workers might riot, so he had to find another way to deal with the matter.
So, the factory director started to think of other things. He turned his attention to Lao Liang's wife, who also worked in the garment factory and was responsible for sewing clothes.
The factory director started to make plans in his mind and began to find fault with Lao Liang's wife and make trouble for her.
"This piece of clothing is not sewn well, the threads are all coming out, redo it!" The factory manager pointed at a piece of clothing and said loudly.
Lao Liang's wife felt so aggrieved. She knew about her husband's affairs and was naturally aware that she was being targeted. However, it was difficult for her to refute. She could only lower her head and silently take the clothes back to have them redone.
This happened several times, and Lao Liang's wife suffered a lot in the workshop, but she still endured it and didn't want to cause trouble for Lao Liang.
Lao Liang saw it and felt anxious. He knew that the factory director was deliberately making things difficult for him, but he also didn't want his wife to suffer. He found the factory manager and wanted to have a good talk.
"Director, if I have any problems at work, please come to me and don't bother my wife." Lao Liang said sincerely.
The factory manager disagreed. He sneered and said, "Lao Liang, this is work. If your wife's work is not up to standard, I will naturally point it out. Is that okay?"
Hearing this, Lao Liang lowered his head.
The factory director clearly wanted to punish him and his wife, so no matter what he said, it was all in vain.
When Lao Liang returned home at night, he saw his wife crying secretly. He felt like eating a dish without salt, bland and bitter. He turned and walked to the door, sat on the threshold, and smoked one cigarette after another. In the smoke, his thoughts were as heavy as the night.
Lao Liang’s wife came out of the house and felt so distressed when she saw how miserable Lao Liang looked. She walked to Lao Liang and whispered, "Lao Liang, stop smoking. It's not good for your health."
Lao Liang looked up at his wife, his eyes full of guilt: "Wife, I am useless and have wronged you."
The two sat on the doorstep, the moonlight shining on them, and the sound of insects chirping in the night accompanied their sighs.
Lao Liang mentioned what Shen Anan had said to him about working alone: "Wife, I want to work alone, so that we don't have to bear their anger."
After hearing this, his wife's eyes sparkled: "Lao Liang, if you want to do it, I support you. I will work in the factory for a while longer, so that we can still get a salary."
However, Lao Liang became worried. "If you continue to stay in the factory, I'm afraid they will target you again."
Hearing this, Lao Liang's wife held his hand and said firmly: "I'm not afraid. As long as you can make a name for yourself, it's worth it for me to suffer a little!"
That night, Lao Liang tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep. He wanted to go into business, but he didn't have enough money or manpower on his own, so he needed to find someone to cooperate with him.
Who can I find?
At the same time, Shen Anan looked at the ceiling and fell into deep thought——
I opened this garment factory myself, who should I find to manage it?
