Chapter 196 Deputy Director Zhao was sidelined
After arriving in the county town and settling down, Shen Anan planned to visit the furniture factory first.
Because the situation was unclear this time, she did not bring Wang Zhen with her and planned to go to Deputy Director Zhao alone to find out the truth.
Of course, this time she learned from her last lesson and didn't dare to take anything, so she went empty-handed.
As for the gift prepared for Deputy Director Zhao, I’ll find a way to give it to him later.
There are too many people and too many gossips in the furniture factory, so it is indeed not a good place to work.
However, when Shen Anan was taken by the guard to a small room next to the workshop warehouse and saw Deputy Director Zhao sitting inside, she almost didn't react.
Before Shen Anan came, she thought that the situation on Deputy Director Zhao's side might not be optimistic, but she didn't expect it to be so bad.
Because the small room in front of me is next to the warehouse, the air is full of the smell of wood, and the lighting is poor, so it is dark overall.
The room was very small, only about seven or eight square meters, and there was basically no furniture except for a desk.
After all, he is the deputy factory director, and this office is indeed too exaggerated.
When Shen Anan arrived, Deputy Director Zhao was wiping the table by himself, and when he saw Shen Anan, his hand movements paused.
"It's An An, come and sit down." Zhao Lei put the rag in the basin and pulled a stool over from the side.
"Uncle Zhao, I just came back from Beijing, so I came to see you!" Shen Anan smiled and sat down, as if he didn't notice the surrounding environment.
"Oh..." Zhao Lei sighed, his brows furrowed, and he had no interest in chatting.
"An An, if you're here for the red brick order, then Uncle Zhao is really helpless!"
"But don't worry, the most they can do is to find fault and delay payment. We have signed a contract, and they can't play any other tricks."
Although he is in trouble now, he still has many connections after working in the furniture factory for so many years.
As soon as the Wanyang Brick Factory incident happened, he received the news.
Zhao Lei smiled bitterly, haha, so what if I knew.
There is no place for him in this furniture factory now.
Shen Anan didn't expect Zhao Lei to make things clear all at once.
But looking at his furrowed brows, one could tell that he had indeed been extremely anxious during this period.
Shen An paused, “Uncle Zhao, if you believe me, why not tell me about it.”
"You have helped me many times before. If there is a chance, I would like to help you too."
Zhao Lei was silent for a moment, somewhat hesitant.
One reason was that he felt that his current predicament could not be solved by a little girl like Shen Anan alone.
On the other hand, he is a grown man after all, and it is indeed a bit embarrassing to ask a little girl for help.
Shen Anan saw Deputy Director Zhao’s struggle, but did not urge him.
After all, she didn't have much contact with Deputy Director Zhao, so it was normal for him to have concerns.
Anyway, there is a contract for the furniture factory's order. Even if the payment is not made on time, if she can get other orders, the predicament of Wanyang Brick Factory can be solved.
Zhao Lei struggled for a long time, but still planned to tell Shen Anan.
He had noticed a few times before that this girl was indeed capable. Maybe she could come up with an idea this time too?
"An An, this is what happened..."
After Zhao Lei's narration, Shen Anan finally understood the whole story.
Director Jiang of the furniture factory is going to retire at the end of this year. Originally, there were only two deputy directors in the factory, Zhao Lei and Qian Xingwang. If nothing unexpected happens, the new director will be chosen from among them.
However, something unexpected happened.
After the New Year, a new deputy director was suddenly parachuted into the furniture factory. He was a young man with a strong background and was obviously here to reap the benefits.
Deputy Director Zhao had been operating for a long time, but was intercepted by someone else. Of course he was dissatisfied.
But that person seemed to have a very powerful background, and even Director Jiang secretly told him not to go against that person.
What can Zhao Lei do? He can only consider himself unlucky!
I originally thought that even if he couldn't get promoted, as long as he did his job well, there would always be opportunities in the future.
Unexpectedly, Qian Xingwang started to curry favor with the new Deputy Director Xu just a few days after he arrived.
He and Qian Xingwang were sworn enemies, and no one knew what Qian Xingwang had said in front of that man.
The two men suddenly teamed up to find fault with him. Not only did they constantly find fault with his work, they also basically stripped him of his power.
Even his previous office and secretary were taken away by Deputy Director Xu.
Zhao Lei has been staying in this small office these days, feeling very depressed.
It's not like he hadn't thought of a solution, but on the one hand, Director Jiang has been in poor health recently and hasn't come to the factory, so he's not in charge of things anymore.
On the other hand, the parachuted-in Deputy Director Xu was obviously the next new director, and no one in the furniture factory was willing to offend him.
Zhao Lei rubbed his face and smiled bitterly, "You see, I come to this office every day, but I can only clean the place and read the newspapers."
"I really can't get involved in other matters at the furniture factory."
After listening to this, Shen Anan also sighed.
At any time, these paratroopers are the most depressing.
The fruits are ripe, are you here to pick peaches? What have you been doing so far?
Where are you when we are planting trees?
Where are you when applying fertilizer?
It would be fine if you have some real skills, but those who just come to take advantage will be hated.
"An An, thank you for listening to Uncle Zhao's nagging. I feel much better after I told you all this." Deputy Director Zhao showed a trace of relief on his face.
Does he have to be the factory director?
Actually, it’s not like that. He just doesn’t want to accept it.
I couldn't accept that after working hard for the furniture factory for more than ten years, this was the end.
“Uncle Zhao, this isn’t actually…” Shen Anan was halfway through her words when she suddenly felt something was wrong and turned around abruptly.
Suddenly, a dark shadow flashed in the warehouse.
Shen Anan: …
This is like surveillance, isn't it?
Because of this discovery, Shen Anan didn't plan to say anything more here. After making an appointment with Deputy Director Zhao to visit his home tomorrow, he said goodbye.
Unexpectedly, she was stopped as soon as she left the warehouse.
"Please get out of the way!"
Shen Anan frowned as he looked at the man who suddenly appeared in front of him. He was about 1.7 meters tall and wearing a striped suit.
I don't know how much hair oil she had applied to her hair, it seemed to be shining, and she had a 2:8 split hair style, a slightly high hairline, and a somewhat wretched expression, which made Shen Anan feel a little disgusted at first sight.
But this man didn't notice Shen Anan's rejection at all. Instead, he leaned on the wall next to him with one hand and stroked his hair with his hand.
"You must be Director Shen from Wanyang Brick Factory! You are indeed quite pretty!"
"I am the new deputy director Xu of this furniture factory. I am in charge of your brick factory's orders now!"
