Grief will eventually pass and life goes on.

After the seventh day of Qin Jinlian's funeral, Shen Chaobei set off lightly and returned to Jiangcheng alone, while Daya and Dandan, brother and sister, stayed in Fengcheng and lived with Du Juan.

Shen Mingzhu gave Du Juan a week-long vacation, arranged accommodation for her, found a new school for the two children, hired a nanny, etc.

After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

When Du Juan, dressed in a gray tweed suit, entered the food factory with Shen Mingzhu, she instantly aroused discussion and attention from all the employees in the factory.

"I heard before that our factory is going to have a new deputy general manager. It should be her, right? She looks quite impressive."

"It's strange. Our factory has always promoted people from within. Why did they recruit someone from outside this time? And he's in such an important position. I'm afraid he won't have a good life in the future."

A new official has three things to do when he takes office. With the sudden appearance of a big boss, the employees can't help but feel uneasy.

"What do you know? This person is not from outside. This is Mr. Shen's sister-in-law, an old employee of the factory. She has been managing the branch company outside for the past few years."

"So it was her..."

After learning about Du Juan's identity and background, everyone suddenly understood.

The food factory is developing rapidly, and nearly 80% of the employees have joined the factory in the past two or three years. They have only heard of Du Juan but never seen her in person. Now they can finally see her true face.

…

Shen Mingzhu took Du Juan to see the new office first. "We were in a hurry, so the layout is a bit simple. You can buy anything you need later. The factory will reimburse you for anything under 5,000 yuan."

Du Juan took a quick look and said with a smile, "Very good. It's better to keep the office simple so that it's easier to manage."

"Then you can tidy up first and get familiar with the environment. I'll come down to call you when the meeting starts. My office is upstairs, and you can come up if you need anything."

"good."

After Shen Mingzhu left, Du Juan carefully looked at the environment and layout of the new office.

Solid wood desks and filing cabinets, light brown leather chairs and sofas, brown glass coffee tables, and potted plants and flowers dotted around the room, creating an atmosphere of neatness, order and warmth.

After appreciating the environment, she picked up the crystal plate on her desk with her name and position of deputy general manager printed on it, and gently rubbed the word "deputy" with her fingers.

…

Inside the meeting room.

"Now I am announcing a personnel appointment. Due to business development needs, after discussions with management, it has been decided to appoint Du Juan as the company's deputy general manager and concurrently the director of the food factory. She will take office today."

Amidst warm applause, Du Juan calmly stood up from the deputy host seat and bowed to everyone with a smile.

After the applause ended, Shen Mingzhu continued to announce: "After Vice President Du takes office, he will gradually take over my work, including being responsible for the management and operation of the company and the food factory, organizing and implementing the annual business plan, convening and presiding over the company's general manager's office meeting, coordinating, inspecting and supervising the work of various departments, etc."

"Due to personal reasons, I will go abroad to study for a year in April. I hope that during my absence, everyone will fully cooperate with Vice President Du's work and help the company and the food factory to move to a higher level."

"The company's motto is to get more for more work, less for less work, and no work for nothing. As the company's top leader, I should set an example. So, I decided to use my personal share dividends this year to give bonuses to all employees in the factory."

The applause rang out again, louder and warmer than before.

When Shen Mingzhu mentioned that she was going to use the dividends to give bonuses to everyone, every employee's face was filled with excitement and joy.

Last year, Shen Mingzhu's personal income exceeded 200,000 yuan. If it was distributed equally to each employee, it would be nearly 400 yuan.

For an ordinary family, four hundred yuan can buy a lot of things.

Don’t waste the money that falls from the sky.

On this side, after the meeting, Shen Mingzhu took Du Juan to greet various departments and introduced the various mechanisms and operations of the food factory.

On the way, Du Juan expressed her admiration for Shen Mingzhu's behavior of taking out her personal dividends.

Shen Mingzhu said with a smile: "It's more practical to just give money. As long as the money is in place, everyone will work hard without you telling them."

Du Juan thought for a moment, "But just giving money won't work. If you meet those who like to work hard and take the money but refuse to work hard, it will encourage them to cheat and act slyly."

Shen Mingzhu did not answer directly, but asked the other party how to manage such a jack-of-all-trades employee.

Knowing that Shen Mingzhu was testing herself, Du Juan also became serious: "Set up a complete work system, define work tasks, and pay according to the quality and quantity of work completed."

This move is also commendable.

"This is a good management concept, but as a top leader, you need to have a sense of the overall situation and think three steps ahead before taking one step."

"As the saying goes, one rotten apple spoils the whole pot of soup. If it is a rotten apple, what we should do is not to manage it, but to consider how to protect the whole pot of soup. If we indulge it to continue to exist, it will sooner or later spoil the whole pot of soup."

Du Juan was educated, "That's true. I oversimplified the problem. People like this should be fired immediately."

"The ultimate goal is to drive out the bad and keep the good, but we also have to consider all aspects and pay attention to strategies and means. People like this are often selfish and narrow-minded. If you fire him, he will not reflect on his own problems, but will bear a grudge against you, and may stab you in the back one day."

Seeing Du Juan's serious expression, Shen Mingzhu smiled again and said, "In fact, it is not difficult to deal with such a person. The first thing is to transfer him away from the core departments and key business positions so that he will not affect the normal operation of the company."

"Place a few colleagues who don't get along with him around him. Exclusion and isolation are the best ways to wear down a person's will. If he knows what's good for him, then leave on his own. If that doesn't work, you can also give the department leader some hints and sweet treats in private, and someone will do your job for you."

The conversation convinced Du Juan.

She looked at Shen Mingzhu, her heart full of gratitude and admiration, "It's true that listening to your words is worth ten years of study. Originally, I thought I had enough ability to take over your management of the company and the factory, but now I feel that I still have a lot to learn."

Shen Mingzhu patted her shoulder soothingly, "Take your time. There is no such thing as overnight success. It is the experience and insights accumulated after continuous setbacks and failures."

"Mingzhu, don't worry, I will never let you down."

Shen Mingzhu smiled faintly, "No, sister-in-law, I asked you to come back to the factory not to let you bear my responsibilities, but I hope you can take this opportunity to realize your higher value and break through yourself."

"Everyone has his own destiny. Everyone should be the protagonist of his own life, rather than being a supporting role in the lives of others."

Du Juan nodded heavily.
