Chapter 300
Zhao Haibo felt cold all over when he saw such a look. He broke out in a cold sweat in such a cold weather.
The reason why he took the lead in making trouble was because of the instigation of another factory director. He was just a small publicity section chief. The development of such a small factory was not good to begin with.
If he really lost his job... "Someone told me to do this."
Qin Xiang turned around and looked at Director Hai in surprise. He smiled and said, "Then tell me."
Zhao Haibo said with wide eyes, "It was our deputy factory director Lin who told me to do this. I didn't mean it..."
Qin Xiang nodded, "I understand."
"Then can you not fire me?" Zhao Haibo asked.
Qin Xiang said directly, "Of course not. You are an official, and you want to drag all the workers down with you for some unknown benefit. Have you ever thought about what would happen to those workers if I killed all of you in a rage?" After
she finished speaking, the workers who did not leave looked at Zhao Haibo unkindly.
Someone said, "If we can't stay in the factory, Deputy Director Lin will probably arrange a job for Zhao Haibo, and we won't have such a good life."
"It's really disgusting."
Qin Xiang laughed, "I believe that everyone is not that kind of person, so I said that at the beginning. Like this comrade, he can easily betray the factory for a little benefit. I dare not use him. Who knows if he will betray me in the next second."
She smiled, very insincerely, "I'm sorry, Comrade Zhao Haibo, you should go find a job as soon as possible after the New Year. Ah, you may want to find Deputy Director Lin, but I will make it clear to the city when I hand over. I will decide on the personnel. My original plan was to keep all the personnel unchanged and give them a two-month probation period before deciding whether to stay or go. Now I can say with certainty that I don't want either Deputy Director Lin or Comrade Zhao Haibo."
After saying this, Qin Xiang left neatly.
Just after walking a few steps outside, a man in his fifties came up with an imposing manner, "What qualifications do you have to give orders in our factory? This factory is not yours yet."
Qin Xiang looked at him with amusement and agreed, "You are right. I'm sorry. Deputy Director Lin can stay for two more days."
This time Qin Xiang did not stay. Deputy Director Lin looked at Director Hai and said, "Director Hai, are you so willing to sell the factory?"
Director Hai had no idea what he meant. Deputy Director Lin was not young anymore, and he was not young either. He did not want such a thing to happen before he retired. It would be very bad for his reputation, and people outside might say that he had lost his integrity in his later years.
But compared to these, Hai was more afraid that the workers would scold him behind his back for not thinking about the factory and bringing the factory down step by step.
He wanted to make the factory better, but he didn't have the ability to do so. In this case, he might as well follow the arrangements of the market.
He could see that although this female comrade was young, she was capable. As long as the factory gave an explanation, he would be at ease.
Then, Director Hai smiled at Deputy Director Lin, "What else? Deputy Director Lin, do you have the ability to revive the factory?"
Seeing that Deputy Director Lin was silent, he said, "Since Deputy Director Lin has no choice, he can only accept the city's arrangement. Perhaps privatization is the best choice. Everyone else can continue to work in the factory with a two-month probation period, but Deputy Director Lin and Section Chief Zhao will have to find new jobs."
Deputy Director Lin's face immediately became embarrassed, "Director Hai trusts that young man."
Director Hai smiled, "It's okay."
"In that case, there's nothing to say." After that, Deputy Director Lin turned and left with a sullen face.
Qin Xiang came out of the Fifth Silk Factory and told He Liping, "You stay here to assist Xiaocao in her work for a while, and pay more attention to that Deputy Director Lin, don't let him make trouble behind your back. In addition, I will ask the capital to send a leadership team here, and you will take over the factory together."
After two years of training, Liu Xiaocao no longer asked her whether she could do it or not. Hearing this, she nodded, "Okay, I understand. If you are really unsure, I will call you or find Manager Mi." After
arranging this, Qin Xiang went to the city with Director Hai the next day. After talking with the responsible office, the leader there also asked about his opinion first, and still wanted to have a public-private partnership, and Qin Xiang would invest. Qin Xiang directly refused, and the other party had no choice but to quickly go through the procedures.
Three days later, Qin Xiang's funds were in place, and the formalities were completed. The factory was officially changed to 'Yunchang Garment Factory', and the municipal government also fulfilled its promise and used the funds to make up the wages owed to the workers in one lump sum.
Qin Xiang gathered everyone together before leaving, posted the employee rules and salary benefits of the new factory, and said, "Next, we will sign a labor agreement with everyone, which will be signed every three years. However, within three years, if anyone cheats or does a bad job, the factory has the right to dismiss them."
The workers cried out, "Then, it's not a stable job anymore."
Qin Xiang smiled and said, "The moment it was changed to a private enterprise, there was no stable job anymore. Private enterprises emphasize more work, more pay, If you do a good job and do more, you will get a high salary. If you just want to eat and get paid, then if you think so, you should leave as soon as possible and find other suitable jobs, so as not to be fired
and embarrassed when you don't do a good job. "Most of the workers in this factory are old workers. There are also a few who have let their children take over before, but they are still in the apprenticeship period. As people with families, as long as they have a salary, they dare not change jobs easily, let alone be lazy. After
Qin Xiang said this, the workers had no objection. They worked in the workshop, and it didn't matter who they worked for.
But those in the cadre positions were different. Some positions existed just to occupy the position without doing any work. Qin Xiang had to make adjustments for such people.
After speaking to the workers, Qin Xiang looked at the nearly 30 cadres standing nearby and said, "I will make adjustments to the cadres. If you have any dissatisfaction..."
She paused and said, "If you have any dissatisfaction, you don't have to tell me. You can just leave or go to the relevant department in the city. There is a special registration window there to register. If there is any work in the future, we will arrange it for you."
After she said this, the cadres could no longer stand. A young man muttered, "Isn't this just... "Is this the behavior of a capitalist? I'm not allowed to say anything."
Qin Xiang raised his eyelids and asked, "What position do you hold?"
Someone shouted, "He is the son of Deputy Director Lin, and he works in the logistics department."
Qin Xiang nodded, "He used to work in the logistics department, so you should go back and find a job with your father. I told you to keep your opinions to yourself, and I won't accept your objections. If you were really capable, would the factory have come to this point?"
Lin Zhihong was furious, "You are a capitalist."
Qin Xiang was not angry. "You can go to the city and sue me. My factory has all the necessary procedures and will pay taxes according to the law. See whether the city is on your side or mine."
Lin Zhihong snorted. "Just leave. Who cares?"
As he left, several people looked at him and then at Qin Xiang. Some left, and some stayed.
Qin Xiang looked at the team and said directly, "It's the same old saying. Work hard. I, Qin Xiang, will not treat anyone unfairly, but I will never tolerate those who want to cheat or cause trouble. Don't tell me how the factory was in the past. The factory provided so many conveniences, but in the end the factory couldn't sell the goods and couldn't pay the workers. And I, Qin Xiang, have more than 20 branches in China, and the other branches are still under development. There is a clothing factory in the capital, one in Pengcheng, and this is the third one. I will build the fourth one in a few days."
She paused, "I'm not saying this to show off, but to tell you that you just have to work hard and produce well. I can sell it."
After she finished speaking, someone shouted, "Can we let our children take over in the future?"
Qin Xiang looked at the other party and shook her head, "Of course not. But if your children also have skills, they can come to the factory for assessment. If they pass the assessment, they can come to the factory and receive training with you. If they can completely become apprentices, they can become regular workers. If they don't have any special skills, then I'm sorry, the training that the factory can provide is limited. This is not a school, let alone a charity."
After she finished speaking, she said some inspiring words to boost morale, and then He Liping put up the rules, and then read the contract she brought publicly to make sure everyone understood it, and then signed and put their fingerprints on it.
As the boss, he also gave them a meeting gift, five pounds of pork for each person.
When the workers heard that they were going to give five pounds of pork, they were as happy as if it was Chinese New Year.
If I think about it carefully, good things have been happening one after another during this period. First, the overdue wages were paid, and then five pounds of pork were given. It seems that private enterprises are not bad.
A younger master whispered, "Uncle Pei, I'm telling you, we just need to stop making trouble. I went to this boss's clothing store, the Xianglian store, and asked around. Their waiters said that the treatment is very good. This female boss likes to give money during festivals. Of course, she will give out some rice, flour, grain and oil during the New Year and Mid-Autumn Festival, but she likes to give out money more. She also gives bonuses to those who do a good job. She also said that the workers in the branch factory in the capital get paid a lot. We make silk clothing, so shouldn't the salary be better?"
Several old masters gathered around, "Are you telling the truth?"
The young man laughed, "Of course it's false. The branch store is not far from us. Just go and ask, I heard that there are branches in Haicheng and Hangzhou."
People have already believed it to some extent. Several old masters sighed, "I just hope to be safe and stable, and not worry all the time."
The young man chuckled, "That's not possible. Only people like us are still like this. In fact, there are private factories in many places. The salary is better than that of state-owned ones. The only thing is that you have to work hard. What people like us lack the least is skills, and we are not afraid of hardships, so changing bosses will not affect us much."
He snorted at those cadres, "It's hard to say about them in the future."
Workers make a living with their skills, and cadres make a living with their brains and diligence.
But if those cadres were really diligent and capable, would the factory be like this now?
The workers left, and several executives gathered together to discuss whether to sign the contract.
After a while, He Liping came over with a contract. "Since the factory was not doing well before, executives can only sign a three-month internship contract. If you fail the probation period, you will not be hired. In addition, the probation period salary is relatively low."
After several people took a look at it, they were immediately furious. It was even lower than the workers in the workshop.
Immediately dissatisfied, "Isn't this insulting?"
"You are wrong, this is not insulting. The workers in the workshop have skills. As soon as the design comes out, the master will immediately make the pattern cutting and production, but what can you cadres do?" He Liping said bluntly, "Drinking tea and reading newspapers or shirking responsibility? Our factory director is a practical person, no one can eat for free. To be honest, the probationary salary given to you is a subsidy from our boss to you."
The contract was put down, and it was up to them to sign or not.
It was just right that these people did not sign, so they could reassign people.
However, these cadre positions are not completely without available people.
Qin Xiang asked He Liping and Liu Xiaocao to visit the workers, and she talked to the factory manager. She had a rough idea of which ones could be trained and used, and which ones could be dismissed directly after a while.
After thinking about it, Qin Xiang went to find the factory manager again. The factory manager was only in his fifties this year, and he still had a few years to retire. Now she didn't know how to arrange it.
Qin Xiang found that although the factory manager didn't have great ability, he was still a good person. She found Director Hai and asked him, "Director Hai, can you be the director of the logistics department in the factory?" Director
Hai was stunned, "You want me to work in the factory?"
Qin Xiang smiled and nodded, "Yes, but the position of the director of the logistics department is not comparable to the factory director. If you have a better choice, just pretend I didn't say anything."
Some people are like this, face is more important than anything else.
But Director Hai's eyes were red after hearing this.
"I am willing."
