Director Chen was chatting with someone when he saw Xu Xiangyang coming over, so he quickly greeted him.
"Director Xu, Director Guan, why are you here together to inspect our work?" He chuckled, but inwardly he was puzzled.
It's not unheard of for two people to come together, it's just rare.
Xu Xiangyang said calmly, "Come and take a look. It's almost Chinese New Year, isn't it? See what everyone's needs are, and if there's anything that needs improvement in our work."
This is just a normal inspection.
Everyone else understood and said it was fine.
The garment factory offers pretty good benefits; for a factory that's just starting out, it's already quite impressive.
Seeing that no one needed anything, Xu Xiangyang nodded, then looked around and led Guan Qilin to the other two workshops.
The other workshops were the same; everyone was working and chatting.
After walking around for a while, Guan Qilin looked unwell.
Back in the office, he couldn't hold back any longer and asked, "Director Xu, how come I didn't notice anything?"
The more problems he can't find, the bigger the problem must be, so he's getting anxious, isn't he?
Xu Xiangyang comforted him, saying, "Why are you in such a hurry? The work is pretty much the same now, there aren't many orders. If we want to find out the problem, we'll probably have to wait until after the New Year when work resumes."
It's obviously impossible to discover the problem just by going there.
Besides, how can it be considered a discovery if there's no job?
That's the situation at the factory right now.
Guan Qilin frowned, looking preoccupied.
Regardless, the factory's losses are all linked to them. Every year, higher authorities send people to investigate; any problems are their responsibility.
Seeing his expression, Xu Xiangyang comforted him, "Director Guan, things can't be investigated and clarified in a short time, don't worry."
There's no better way. As long as they don't alert the enemy, they'll take action again if someone really causes trouble.
Guan Qilin didn't know what to say, so he could only nod.
Xu Xiangyang watched him leave, then took the account book to find Lu Qingshu; he needed to tell her about this.
After all, only they know this; if someone finds out, the whole factory will know.
Lu Qingshu went outside with him, and the two talked outside. There were many people inside; the finance department had only one office, and there were two accountants inside.
Upon hearing Xu Xiangyang's request, she nodded in agreement without hesitation. "Don't worry, Director Xu, I definitely won't mention this to anyone else."
Xu Xiangyang was still in charge of things at the factory; she was just the director of the finance office.
Moreover, this is not something that can be resolved in a day or two; the most important thing is to catch them in the first place.
If someone is indeed secretly causing trouble, and they can't be caught the first time, then people will find out.
Seeing that she understood, Xu Xiangyang turned to leave.
At this moment, Lu Qingshu suddenly called out to him.
"Director Xu."
Xu Xiangyang turned around and looked at her with a puzzled expression. "Is there anything else?"
The two had little interaction, so they rarely spoke to each other except for work-related issues.
Lu Qingshu pursed her lips, a complex look flashing in her eyes, and said, "The factory will be closed for the next few days, so there's not much to do. The New Year's Eve party program is all set, so remember to go and watch it."
They have held parties in the past two years to boost the enthusiasm of the employees.
Xu Xiangyang would only take a quick look and leave each time, never staying long.
Hearing her say that, I thought there would be a good program this year, so I nodded in agreement.
In any case, everyone was happy that the factory manager went, and the performers were especially excited.
Before we knew it, it was New Year's Eve party day. Although it was called a party, we finished dinner at four o'clock in the afternoon and then it started.
It gets dark early in winter; it gets dark around 4 PM.
This year's gala saw everyone much more relaxed than in the previous two years, with many people preparing performances.
Of course, it's impossible for everyone to perform on stage once; most of the time it's just a large chorus or something like that.
More people make the program more compact.
Xu Xiangyang looked at them and saw that they all looked much better than before.
Guan Qilin, who was standing to the side, said, "Director Xu, our factory workers are so enthusiastic! Things will definitely get better and better in the future!"
He was very happy, because a strong people means a strong nation!
Xu Xiangyang nodded in agreement, saying that life would be better as the economy developed.
Eating meat at every meal makes every day feel like a holiday.
However, life won't be easy from now on. Just like the wave of layoffs, it's never going to be easy.
Halfway through the program, Xu Xiangyang saw Lu Qingshu, who was about to appear. She was dressed in green and looked a little nervous.
He was somewhat surprised that the show was featuring her alone, which was quite rare.
Tonight, most performances are by at least two people; it's the first time I've seen someone perform alone.
Lu Qingshu also saw him, and her expression became even more tense.
However, she felt much better once the music started playing.
She sang a life-or-death song very well, and her interpretation of all the lyrics was brilliant.
Especially her loud voice, which is like that of a nightingale.
Xu Xiangyang felt that it was a waste for Lu Qingshu not to become a singer; she was a very talented person.
However, people like this will shine no matter what position they hold.
As the song ended, Lu Qingshu's face flushed slightly, a mixture of excitement and shyness.
This was her first time singing in front of so many people, and she was very nervous.
Seeing Xu Xiangyang applaud for her, Lu Qingshu became even more embarrassed.
He hurriedly stepped off the stage, but the applause from the audience continued unabated.
"Director Lu sang really well!"
