Chapter 60 Go to the Second Factory for Guidance
Let her be a technical instructor?
Ding Guo was also stunned by the news.
Also, how long had she been daydreaming? She actually missed so much information.
"Is it okay not to go?"
Ding Guo was just about to ask Chen Xiufang to resume her night shift. Otherwise, if she had to work every day like this, and now that the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, the production tasks are heavy, and she has to work overtime on weekends, she would have no time to go out and have fun.
Chen Xiufang widened her eyes in surprise: "Do you know what you are talking about?"
What an honor it is to be a technical instructor.
He enjoys the treatment of a technical staff. Although they are both in Fengning, the factory here not only provides subsidies, but may also transfer Ding Guo to another position when he returns.
The Second Factory will also provide good care like they do to Grandma. In addition to salary, they will also provide meals, and the food treatment will not be bad.
Ding Guo slapped her forehead, she immediately apologized for her ignorance, and asked quickly: "Team leader, are we leaving now or in a minute?"
Chen Xiufang rolled her eyes, stuffed the letter of introduction into her pocket, and said, "Go to the Second Factory and report in tomorrow morning!"
Ding Guo smiled and said, "I know!"
"Work hard and don't bring shame to our factory."
In fact, she was reluctant to send Ding Guo, for fear that the people from Factory 2 would poach her. But she thought that she couldn't ruin Ding Guo's future. Besides, Factory 2 also knew that this year's new mooncakes and bread were made by Ding Guo, and they had specifically asked for her, so there was nothing she could do to stop them.
Ding Guo didn't know the team leader was so worried, so he smiled and said, "Don't worry, team leader. I promise I won't embarrass you or our factory."
There are different opinions in the factory about Ding Guo's decision to take on the role of technical advisor. Some think that Ding Guo is qualified, while others think that Ding Guo has not been in the factory long and does not have enough work experience, and that an old employee in the factory should be sent there. After all, new products are on the market, and many old employees in the factory have mastered the production methods. Combined with their many years of work experience, it would be most appropriate for him to go to the second factory as a technical advisor.
But the supporters were very resolute, and Factory No. 2 specifically asked Ding Guo to go over, so the opposing party could do nothing no matter how unhappy they were. They had to watch the factory issue a certificate, stamp it with a big red seal, and notify the person concerned.
Ding Guo was not aware that the factory cadres had had similar disputes because of her.
The next day, Ding Guo got up at dawn, washed up, ordered a bowl of shredded chicken noodles from the mall, fried two eggs herself, spread the noodles with a spoonful of chili oil she had made last night, ate the meal with satisfaction, put on her cross-body bag and water bottle, and went to catch the early bus.
I miscalculated. The Second Factory is too far away and there is no direct city bus. I need to change buses in the middle. I don't know whether I can get the ticket. I will ask about it when I get a chance.
When we arrived at the factory gate, we just caught the rush hour.
Ding Guo walked to the gatekeeper from one side and showed his letter of introduction to the gatekeeper. The gatekeeper was a little surprised: "Oh, Technician Ding, you are too proactive. The leaders probably haven't arrived yet."
Ding Guo smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll wait here for a while..."
Before she finished her words, she saw the old man waving outside: "Secretary Xiao, Secretary Xiao..."
When the guard shouted, Ding Guo looked in the direction of the voice and saw a girl about twenty-three or twenty-four years old with short hair. But why did he feel that the girl looked familiar?
Xiao Ling squeezed the brakes, got out of the car, and asked with a smile, "Uncle Zhang, what's wrong?"
The old man pointed at Ding Guo and said, "The technicians from Factory 1 arrived early, and I don't know how to arrange them. You see..."
Factory One is just the name given to that place by several factories other than Factory Two. In fact, the sign there is not clearly marked as Factory One. It is just "Fengning Food Factory".
But the Second Factory was indeed separated from the Fengning Food Factory. For the sake of convenience in distinguishing it, it is called the First Factory.
Xiao Ling looked at Ding Guo, smiled warmly, stretched out her hand, and greeted him, "Comrade Ding Guo, right? Hello, welcome to the Second Factory."
Ding Guo secretly raised his eyebrows. Is she so well-known in the Second Factory? The security guard didn't even introduce her, but Xiao called out her name accurately.
"It's me, thank you, Secretary Xiao!" Ding Guo stretched out his hand and shook it, saying with a smile.
Xiao Ling glanced at her with a smile and said, "Come in with me."
After entering the gate of the Second Factory, Xiao Ling tilted her head and said with a smile: "You should know my cousin, right? Her name is Xiao Hong, and she used to date your brother."
Ding Guo suddenly realized, and she said why she felt that the girl looked familiar just now. Now looking at her carefully, she saw that she looked a little bit like Xiao Hong in her eyes and eyebrows.
"So she is Xiao Hong's cousin. I didn't expect that we are family." Ding Guo said with a smile.
Xiao Ling smiled and said, "My cousin has mentioned you several times. She has to thank you for breaking up with Ding Jianguo."
Her parents didn't like the guy her cousin was dating from the beginning. They thought the guy was a bit floating and not responsible. But her cousin liked him, so her parents, as uncle and aunt, couldn't interfere too much.
Some time ago, my cousin came to my house and said she wanted to break up with Ding Jianguo. She also explained in detail the reasons and consequences of the breakup. Naturally, my family agreed with her.
In addition to being grateful to Ding Guo, whom he had never met, he also felt that this girl was really miserable, having such a pair of parents. Later, he also admired Ding Guo's clarity and courage. Not only did he fight hard against his family's arrangement, but he also persuaded Xiao Hong to break up with Ding Jianguo in a straightforward manner.
You know, Ding Jianguo is Ding Guo’s biological brother, a real family member.
At that time, the family was still worried whether this girl was deliberately causing trouble to get revenge on her parents, but it didn't matter whether it was intentional or not. As long as Xiao Hong could be persuaded to break up with Ding Jianguo, it would be a good thing for their family.
But such people are not worthy of close friendship. I would like to advise Xiao Hong that it is enough to have a friendship of nodding to each other when meeting each other, but don't be too close to them.
But later, through my cousin's description, I realized that people really thought Ding Jianguo was not worthy of her cousin and that her cousin deserved better.
I also learned from my cousin that Ding Guo is Ding Guo and the Ding family are the Ding family, and they cannot be generalized.
So, although my cousin broke up with Ding Jianguo, she has always had a good relationship with Ding Guo.
When she heard her leader mention Ding Guo's name during the meeting yesterday, she immediately wondered if it was the Ding Guo that her cousin often mentioned. After all, it is very normal to have the same name and surname. Last night she specifically asked her cousin and learned that this Ding Guo was the Ding Guo that her cousin knew.
When Xiao Ling met this girl today, she was completely relieved to see that her eyes were bright and clear, and she spoke in a confident and generous manner.
My cousin was right. It was obvious at first glance that this girl was not the same kind of person as Ding Jianguo.
It's really strange, they came from the same mother, and they are twins, a boy and a girl, but how come their personalities are so different?
It’s probably because I didn’t grow up with my biological parents and didn’t receive their guidance.
It’s a good thing that the girl didn’t stay with her parents, otherwise such a good girl would have been taught a lesson by her parents about being materialistic.
Xiao Ling took her to her office and took a mug to make tea for Ding Guo. Ding Guo quickly stopped her and said with a smile, "Secretary Xiao, Xiao Hong and I are friends, and we are no strangers. I have to leave soon. It would be a waste if I pour the water but don't drink it."
She patted her bag and said, "I brought it with me. I'm really not thirsty right now, so you don't have to be so polite."
Xiao Ling smiled and said, "Then don't call me Secretary Xiao anymore. You are the same age as my cousin, and I am two years older than both of you. Just follow my cousin and call her sister."
Ding Guo readily called out "Sister Xiao Ling".
The call of "sister" was not in vain. Before she officially started working, Xiao Ling told her about the situation of the two workshops she was mainly responsible for this time.
Although Xiao Ling also participated in yesterday's meeting, she was not directly responsible for this matter. Ding Guo came to guide the second and third workshops this time. One workshop specializes in producing new-style mooncakes, and the other makes new-style bread. He will then take the time to guide the pastry recipe for old-style mooncakes.
"The director of the second workshop is named Dong, and the director of the third workshop is named Huang. These two directors are good people..."
As for the leading cadres in the factory, from top to bottom, they welcomed Ding Guo's arrival with open arms and feet, but the attitudes of the workers below might not be so unanimous.
She was especially asked to pay attention to a person named "Zhao Hui" in the third workshop.
"Come to think of it, there's some disagreement over who sent you here, right?" Xiao Ling said with a smile.
Ding Guo really didn't know. She was suddenly notified yesterday afternoon, and even the documents had been issued. Then she came to Factory 2 early this morning. She didn't know if there was a story behind this.
But the team leader said that they would support her like a grandmother, and her requirements were not so high. Everyone just needed to cooperate, she would guide them carefully, and they should learn hard, complete the task early, and not cause any trouble.
Seeing the confusion in Ding Guo's eyes, Xiao Ling said, "Zhao Hui's aunt is an old employee of the factory and has some connections in your factory. When we proposed to invite someone to provide technical guidance yesterday, someone in your factory wanted to push Zhao Hui's aunt to come over and called our leaders several times to communicate. But our leaders are very determined and specifically asked you to come. You may not have done anything in this matter, but you have offended people invisibly. Of course, maybe we are judging others by our own standards. Maybe Zhao Hui is a reasonable person and will not make things difficult for you."
Ding Guo sighed, she was worthy of being a cadre, she thought this matter was very simple, but she didn't expect that there were so many twists and turns behind it, and Xiao Ling, who was not directly responsible for this work, knew it clearly.
In fact, under normal circumstances, Xiao Ling would not have been so idle to inquire about every aspect. She did this because she heard the leader mention Ding Guo's name during the meeting yesterday. Although she was not sure at the time whether it was the Ding Guo her cousin knew, she decided to learn more about him just in case.
She thought that if it was the same person, she would find an opportunity to remind him for the sake of her cousin. If it was just a coincidence of the name, she would not interfere.
Fortunately, I learned more about the situation. When I went to see my cousin last night, she told me repeatedly to take good care of Ding Guo and not let anyone bully her.
We can also tell from my cousin's attitude that she really treats Ding Guo as a friend!
Xiao Ling naturally took her cousin's words to heart. Even if she hadn't met him at the factory gate today, she would have paid attention to him. Unexpectedly, it was such a coincidence that she was the one who brought the person in.
"Thank you, Sister Xiao Ling. I will pay attention to it."
"We are one family, no need to be so polite. If someone really bothers you, just come to me and I will take care of it for you..." Xiao Ling raised her wrist to check her watch, smiled and stood up, "The two directors should be here. Come on, I'll take you to their office."
Ding Guo stood up and followed him out.
The first person she met was Director Dong from the Second Workshop. Knowing that she came from Factory One, he was very enthusiastic and expressed a warm welcome to Ding Guo. After a few words, he couldn't wait to take Ding Guo to the Second Workshop.
Since Old Huang is a step late, let Comrade Ding Guo guide their work first.
On the way, he praised Ding Guo again and again, and half-jokingly asked Ding Guo if he was interested in being transferred to work in the second factory.
Director Dong's praise comes from the heart, and I have no choice but to admire him.
In addition to the eye-catching new products this year, the food factory also changed the recipe of the old-style mooncake crust, which overshadowed several other food factories in Fengning from the inside out.
Fortunately, the factory leaders reacted quickly. After returning from a meeting outside, they convened an internal meeting of the factory’s leading cadres and immediately communicated with the food factory and decided on Ding Guo first.
Although the food factory will provide the formula, it would be more reassuring than having the person who developed the new product come and take charge.
Of course, their main purpose is to let the workshop workers communicate more with Ding Guo to see if they can get some additional guidance. Maybe they can also develop dazzling new products themselves.
Several other factories will certainly also request to send people over to provide technical guidance.
The guess by the Second Factory was correct. As soon as the leaders at the Food Factory came to work, they started receiving phone calls, all of which were requests to arrange for someone to provide guidance.
As expected, they all asked Ding Guo first. When they learned that Ding Guo had been transferred to Factory No. 2, they couldn't help but feel annoyed that they were one step late, and secretly wondered why Factory No. 2 was so quick.
On the way to workshop 2, you will pass by workshop 3.
Director Dong walked over with Ding Guo, chatting and laughing. Director Huang, who was about to call people to a meeting, caught a glimpse of this scene from the corner of his eye. He paused for a moment, then reacted and quickly chased after them.
"Could it be that the technicians from Factory 1 are coming over?"
The girl looked unfamiliar.
Director Huang was not late for work. He just went to the workshop as soon as he entered the factory to check the work of the night shift. He also called the team leaders and asked them to call the people from the temporary study group organized yesterday to come to the morning meeting.
Before he could gather everyone, he saw Old Dong walking over with a young girl, smiling widely on his face.
