Chapter 281 The Old Man
"who?"
Everyone immediately became interested.
"Remember the textile and clothing factories you visited before?"
Lu Yunchen hinted, "I heard that a number of small factories have closed down recently, and many workers have lost their jobs. The factory manager you are looking for is Lao Yu from the textile factory. He not only has experience in this area, but also has a certain network of contacts."
"Old man?"
"right."
Lu Yunchen hesitated for a moment before continuing, "Lao Yu was the deputy director of the textile factory she had visited before, and now the factory has declared bankruptcy. In fact, his textile factory was previously a family business that was transferred from private to public. After operating for many years, the factory has actually been making losses. He has been marginalized for so many years, but he still managed it with gritted teeth because he still has a little affection for the factory. Unfortunately..."
This is a problem left over from history.
In short, Lao Yu now wanted to rebuild the factory, but unfortunately, the original textile factory had too much debt, the factory equipment was outdated, and the employees were not united and had poor discipline. The huge debt made everyone hesitate. No one dared to take over the bankrupt textile factory, and as a result, he, the old deputy director, naturally had to sit on the bench.
"You really think highly of him?"
Huang Xinran was surprised.
It's no wonder she was surprised, Lu Yunchen rarely talks nonsense.
Maybe it has something to do with his relatively calm (dull) temperament and his cautious nature?
But this time, when it came to such an important matter as choosing a factory director, he actually jumped out and directly recommended a candidate, which was very different from his usual behavior. No wonder Huang Xinran was surprised.
The three people standing beside him also stared at him intently and nodded continuously.
“I’m really optimistic about him!”
Lu Yunchen nodded in agreement without any surprise: "Lao Yu and I have had contact before when we were carrying out a related task. I am very optimistic about his character and ability to do things. I also believe that if we provide him with a platform, he will definitely be able to take our textile factory to the next level!"
You actually recommend each other so much?
Huang Xinran thought about it. Lu Yunchen rarely interfered in her affairs. She had to give him some face. She simply nodded and agreed: "Okay. Let's put it this way. We can't just talk about it here. You call the people over and let us take a look. How do you think?"
This is to have an interview. What if the person is a freeloader who is here to eat and cheat?
"Okay, I'll tell him later."
Lu Yunchen was also very happy.
He was attracted by Lao Yu's character, and he had helped him a lot before. Lao Yu was also capable and courageous, but unfortunately, time did not wait for him, and he ended up like this.
He firmly believed that if he was given an opportunity, the other party would be able to develop the clothing factory and make a lot of money, but at least he would not lose money...
After the matter was settled, Huang Xinran didn't care much about it and put it out of his mind.
But just the next day, Lu Yunchen, who had been resting at home recently, brought the rest of the people over.
This sudden visit caught Huang Xinran off guard.
Fortunately, she was planning to go to the clothing factory today, and she also took advantage of the fact that Sun Ya and An Lan were both there, so she made an appointment to go together. Since the others were here, she might as well ask him to come along.
Lao Yu was not the factory director who came out to greet her last time when she planned to acquire a textile factory. Instead, he was a middle-aged man who looked ordinary at first glance.
He is of medium height, in his forties, and his hair is already mostly white.
When he saw Huang Xin, his eyes lit up and he hurried forward to greet her politely with a humble and flattering look on his face.
"I'm going to the clothing factory today to check on the progress. Do you want to come with me?"
Lao Yu paused for a moment, then happily agreed.
"Okay, okay, Sister Huang, don't worry, I will work hard and run the factory well."
"It's too early to say that now."
Huang Xinran found it somewhat amusing.
I don't know what Lu Yunchen said to them, but judging from his attitude, I think he has already decided on the candidate.
Actually, her first impression of this person was not very good. She just felt that this person was a little too weak and stubborn.
To go to the clothing factory, you naturally have to take a car.
Huang Xinran hadn't gotten his driver's license yet, but when he asked, the old man actually offered to drive. After seeing that he had his driver's license, Huang Xinran naturally agreed.
When I get back, I have to pay the money for the car to avoid any hidden dangers in the future.
When Lao Yu drove to the clothing factory, Sun Ya, Liang Wei and the other two had not arrived yet.
She got out of the car and couldn't help looking around.
This was her first time visiting the factory since it was built. The last time she came, the factory was still a wasteland.
Of course, the factory building is the same now, nothing to see. Apart from the newly built wall and a gate outside, when you walk in, apart from the spacious front yard, there is a spacious workshop, and it is still a workshop.
Huang Xinran went in and took a look around, and found that the equipment he had purchased had almost been installed.
It really proves what Liang Wei said, we can be ready to start work at any time.
She nodded, and went to the back to check out the temporary rest area for employees and the factory cafeteria. Seeing that everything was going well, she returned with satisfaction.
Only then did she realize that Lao Yu, who was following her, was missing. Just as she was about to turn back to look for him, Liang Wei and the other two came over.
The three of them came in chatting and laughing, and greeted Huang Xinran when they saw her.
"Don't worry, I'll go find someone first."
Looking for someone?
"It's the guy I mentioned yesterday, Lao Yu. He disappeared after I came in."
The group of four hurried to look for him, and found him in the factory at a glance.
Lao Yu was squatting in front of a machine tool, fiddling with something.
When the four approached, they found that the other party was actually repairing a machine.
"Is there something wrong with this machine?"
"Isn't there a problem? Look at this, and this... This machine must have had a problem from the beginning, and it was not assembled properly after being transported. Once it is put into operation, it will be useless. It's better to find it now and fix it before it starts to operate, so it will save a lot of money..."
Lao Yu talked a lot without raising his head or stopping his hands.
Huang Xinran doesn't know much about this aspect, or rather, repair is an area she has not touched upon.
Watching Lao Yu beating the drum, I had no idea whether what he said was true or false.
The four of them stared at it for a long time until Lao Yu stood up and said happily, "It's done! Just apply more oil to lubricate and maintain it. Hey, you are...Oh, Sister Huang, you see, I don't care about anything when I'm busy."
The old man is embarrassed.
His hands were itchy and he couldn't take his eyes off what he saw.
Huang Xinran actually had a better impression of this man: "It's okay, it's rare that you are so responsible. Lao Yu, look at these machines in our factory. What do you think?"
