Chapter 390: Progress Together
Not long after, Director Li came over in a hurry.
No nonsense, just start the meeting.
In the past two years, the factory's efficiency has been increasing, so the leaders have also attached great importance to it.
This year, their garment factory was given some privileges and was allocated three cars, which are mainly used for business.
I have to say that this is already a very good result. Originally they basically didn't need to be managed by the higher-ups, but now they are managed, which means they are taken care of.
In fact, there are a lot of factories in Chuncheng that are in trouble now. Some factories need to replace their equipment, but they haven’t done so yet.
There are still many problems, but we are still making losses and there is no way for us to approve the replacement of equipment.
After the meeting, Director Li called her to his office.
The secretary poured the water and closed the door, and then the two began to talk.
Director Li said, "Xiao Chen, the factory is doing well now. I will retire in a few years, and the factory will rely on you and Director Fan by then."
But Director Fan is often on business trips, so he is not here at all. Sometimes we can discuss important matters, but basically he is rarely here.
Chen Yi saw that he was not very old, but he had retired early, so she nodded and said nothing more.
In fact, Director Li knew that their family made a lot of money as an individual, and it was really not easy for Chen Yi to stay and continue working.
However, he did not mention this matter. It was a favor for him to stay, and it was his duty to leave.
Director Li remembered that the people from Baicheng Second Factory would be coming tomorrow, so he said, "I won't show up tomorrow. You guys can handle it as you wish."
He doesn't want to deal with these people. If they are nice to him, that's fine. But if they are deliberately causing trouble, as a factory director, he can't get angry with them, right?
Hearing this, Chen Yi smiled and said, "Okay, I'll take care of it."
To be honest, she didn't want to deal with it at all.
But if a leader doesn’t come out, that won’t work either.
Director Li and two secretaries are in charge of all matters big and small in the factory, but she is responsible for design matters, especially since she is here to study, it would be bad if she didn't go.
The next morning when she arrived at the factory, Chen Yi packed up her design drawings and put them all into the space.
These things cannot be left outside.
Guessing that these people would arrive in the afternoon, she went to the workshop first to see that the recent production tasks were almost finished, with only some scattered orders from the mainland left, and they would be delivered in a while.
Everyone is very busy before the New Year, and the rest time after the New Year is also quite long, so most people are not as busy as before.
After walking around for a while, Chen Yi went to the design office.
"Director Chen."
"Director Chen is here."
Li Qing got up and poured her a glass of water, and the two of them sat on the sofa.
"How was the course?" Chen Yi asked after taking a sip of water.
Now when we are free, we don’t draw designs, but concentrate on studying.
The factory intends to transfer two college students over, but there is no news yet.
If they really come, they can't let people laugh at them for not learning formally.
Hearing this, Li Qing replied, "I have already given lectures. In the past six months, I have given two, four or five classes a month. Everyone has studied very hard and has made great progress."
This is not a bad thing. Letting them learn is for the purpose of everyone making progress together.
Chen Yi nodded. "When the people from the second factory come, you can give them a lecture. I will tell you what to talk about then."
If you are sarcastic to them, just talk about some ordinary things. If they are polite, then talk about some useful lessons.
Of course, she is not treating people differently, but some people really don't deserve it.
The two chatted for a while, and Chen Yi also understood the current situation in the office, so she went back.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Liang Xiaoju came to the office to call her and said that the people from the second factory downstairs had arrived.
Chen Yi tidied herself up, then stood up, put on her thick coat and went downstairs.
The weather outside is still a bit cold. March is the month with the most changes. It is common to be cold one day and hot the next.
When she went downstairs, those people had already got off the car. There were four people in total, including Yu Lili, whom she had met before, and she didn't recognize the others.
The former deputy director Du Fangyu had disappeared and did not come this time.
"This is our Director Chen, who is in charge of clothing design in the factory." Director Li's secretary came over and introduced.
Director Li did not come. He had said before that he could not come.
"Hello, I'm Zhu Yuting, the director of the design department of the second factory!" A woman in her twenties came over and shook hands with her with a smile on her face.
This person is their new director, who graduated from university with a major in clothing.
Chen Yi smiled politely and shook hands back, saying, "Director Zhu, you must be tired after coming all the way here. Why don't you take a rest today?"
"Secretary Liang, is the food ready in the cafeteria?"
Liang Xiaoju stepped out from the back and said, "We're ready."
Everyone went to the cafeteria together. It was impossible for Chen Yi to just say hello and then go back. That would not be nice.
After a whole day of riding in the car, several people were really hungry.
Conditions in the factory are better now, and the food prepared for us is the best, such as chicken stewed with mushrooms, large white flour steamed buns, and white rice. You can eat whatever you want.
They were not polite. They ate and drank as usual. After eating, they drank some water and took a rest.
"Director Chen." Zhu Yuting looked at her and said, "I've heard that your designs are very good. I can see clothes from Chuncheng Garment Factory in Baicheng. They are really amazing."
Last year, their Chuncheng No. 2 Garment Factory was changed to Chuncheng Garment Factory.
Because there was no Factory 1 anymore, it wasn't appropriate to call it Factory 2, so they simply changed the name.
Chen Yi nodded and said, "In fact, it's all due to everyone's hard work. Your Baicheng Second Factory has now recruited college students, and it will get better and better in the future."
This is the truth. For professional things, you need to find professionals.
Look at the people Yu Lili led before. They were just copycats. What future could they have by leading a group of people to copy homework?
Yu Lili, who was standing by, also changed her expression when she heard this, but she didn't say anything.
She has really grown a lot. When they came over that year, Yu Lili was like a firecracker, catching fire at once.
Zhu Yuting smiled when she heard this, "Yes, our country is growing stronger day by day and nurturing college students like us. Now is the time for us to report to the country!"
Everyone was having a pretty good chat. At least Director Zhu was not two-faced and spoke in a very proper manner. He did not overstep his status and asked irrelevant questions.
Chen Yi glanced at the time and said, "Then you should go and rest. Secretary Liang will take you there. If there is anything, just tell Secretary Liang. I will know."
She had other things to do, it was getting late today, and they were about to get off work.
"Then thank you for your help." Zhu Yuting nodded with a smile, then followed Liang Xiaoju out.
Yu Lili looked at Chen Yi's back as she left, gave her a complicated look, and then followed the others and left.
