King of Industry

"Dongfeng, why do you look a little listless?" Zhao Guoyang asked Xu Dongfeng after he brought Xu Dongfeng into the room.

Xu Dongfeng sighed "ah", and said with a bitter face: "Guoyang, this technical department, I really can't stay any longer. You are the leader of the factory now, see if there is any way, let me change the department... ..."

After hearing this, Zhao Guoyang couldn't help raising his eyebrows.

Ordinarily, although Xu Dongfeng is a bit lazy, he is still very good at dealing with people. It is unreasonable to have conflicts with others. How could he say such a thing?

Paying close attention to Xu Dongfeng's expression, Zhao Guoyang took out a cigarette, handed it to him and said, "Please tell me clearly what's going on, otherwise, I won't be able to help you with this task!"

Xu Dongfeng was overjoyed when he heard that he was good, but he felt a little sad when he thought of the grievance he had just suffered.

"Actually, it's nothing. Just when I was in the bathroom, I overheard a few young people from the technical department talking about me, saying that I have no skills. Why does Master Hua still value me so much? They think it's unfair..."

After Xu Dongfeng said this, Zhao Guoyang probably understood what was going on.

Needless to say, this guy must have overheard other people's private discussions when he was squatting in the pit.

In fact, I can't blame others for this matter. Xu Dongfeng is really not outstanding in technical work, and he is a typical type of dawdling.

But because Hua Guosheng, the leader of the technical department, is his master, he has always taken care of him a lot.

It's been a long time, and everyone is not blind, so naturally they can feel some unfairness.

Although no one would say anything in front of Xu Dongfeng, discussions behind the scenes were inevitable.

Speaking of which, Zhao Guoyang admired Xu Dongfeng, his former roommate.

This guy doesn't compete for fame, profit, or pander, and he's quite generous, never haggling over every detail.

If this was placed in the era before his rebirth, he would be a "Buddhist youth".

However, in the early 1990s, when such an atmosphere of advocating work ability and advocating heroism, Xu Dongfeng seemed a bit out of place.

Before that, Zhao Guoyang also considered transferring Xu Dongfeng's job to the purchasing or sales department.

But because the salary of the technical department was still higher, he never told Xu Dongfeng.

Now this kid came to the door by himself, Zhao Guoyang thought for a while, and simply took this opportunity to give his affairs to "once and for all".

"Dongfeng, let's be honest. In fact, with your personality and characteristics, it's really not suitable for technical work."

After hearing Zhao Guoyang's frank words, Xu Dongfeng said "hmm", but didn't say anything against it.

Zhao Guoyang tapped the table lightly with his fingers, and said slowly, "I personally think that the most suitable job for you should be sales."

"At the meeting just now, Director Ma brought up the difficulty of the shortage of manpower in the sales department and asked for my opinion..."

"I think you should be able to do the sales department. What's your idea? If you want, I'll bring it up with the factory manager!"

After Zhao Guoyang said these words, Xu Dongfeng stood up immediately.

"Great, the sales department has always been the department I want to go to. It would be great if I could go! Guoyang, I'll leave this matter to you. Turn around...I'll treat you to dinner!" Xu Dongfeng was a little excited Said.

With this guy, Zhao Guoyang is naturally not polite.

He said with a "huh": "You owe this meal first. I guess I have to travel to the capital again tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. I really don't have time!"

"Success, success, then when you come back, I'll cleanse you up!" Xu Dongfeng said hastily.

After chatting with Xu Dongfeng for a few more words, Zhao Guoyang sent him out of the house, and let him wait for the order in peace.

Sitting back on his chair again, thinking about the upcoming trip to the capital, Zhao Guoyang wondered whether he should call Mr. Li to inform him.

After all, I can theoretically be regarded as a "special researcher" of the Ministry of Machinery and Electronics Industry. It seems a little unreasonable to go to the capital without notifying this boss.

Thinking of this, Zhao Guoyang picked up his fixed phone and dialed the number of Mr. Li's office.

The phone rang several times, but no one answered. He probably had something to do when he was out. Zhao Guoyang shook his head. It seemed that he had to wait until the capital to contact Mr. Li.

...

Coming out of the Beijing Railway Station, Zhao Guoyang felt a chill in his body.

In mid-to-late April, when people in Jiangnan Province have started to wear spring and autumn shirts, it is still a bit cold in the north.

Seeing Zhao Guoyang shivering, Mu Aijun smiled and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Guoyang, I told you to bring an extra coat before you set off. Do you regret it now?"

Zhao Guoyang straightened his waist and said, "No, it's just that I just got off the train and haven't gotten used to it. It will be fine in a while."

Mu Aijun smiled and nodded, and while walking through the crowd, explained to Zhao Guoyang the things that need to be paid attention to during this trip to the capital.

"Guoyang, after a while, let's go to the Management Bureau of Inherent Assets to make an appointment and report, and then we can arrange the board and lodging issues."

"At the Management Bureau of Inherent Assets, the person in charge of the reception should be the general management office. There are a lot of people in the office these days, and it may be busy. We need to be more considerate, keep a low profile, and don't throw face at others... ..."

After hearing this, Zhao Guoyang felt a little funny.

It seems that the fact that he was angry with He Jusheng earlier gave Manager Mu a better understanding of his character.

If it was put in the past, Director Mu would never say this last sentence.

Although this meeting was mainly in charge of the Machinery Industry Department, the all-terrain vehicle project was arranged by the Management Bureau of Inherent Assets.

Therefore, it is naturally the general management office in the bureau that is responsible for the reception task, not the general department under the machinery industry department.

Zhao Guoyang naturally accepted Director Mu's suggestion with an open mind.

He was just about to say a few words of promise when he saw a row of taxis parked on the platform outside the train station.

Seeing these taxis, Zhao Guoyang quickly greeted Director Mu and walked over quickly.

...

It was almost noon when Zhao Guoyang and Mu Aijun arrived at the office building of the State Administration of Assets Management.

The State Administration of Inherent Assets is an independent agency attached to the Ministry of Finance and does not work together with the Ministry of Finance.

Unlike some functional departments within the Ministry of Finance, the State Administration of Improper Assets is a national bureau with strong independence.

The so-called national bureau is a relatively independent working department under the centralized management of various ministries and commissions under the State Council, which specializes in the management of certain industries and affairs.

The National Bureau is not directly under the leadership of the State Council, but accepts the leadership of relevant ministries and commissions, but it is not a functional department within the ministries and commissions.

Its main responsibility is to be responsible for formulating industry planning and industry policies, and conducting industry management.

The State Administration of Assets is a vice-ministerial structure, and its full-time leaders such as the director and secretary are all serious deputy-ministerial cadres.

Of course, only such an administrative level can manage the numerous state-owned enterprises at the departmental level and deputy ministerial level below.

After following Mu Aijun into the building, Zhao Guoyang discovered that the factory manager Mu was really familiar with this place, and he even knew where the luggage was temporarily placed.

"Guoyang, the general management office is just ahead, just turn a corner. Let's hurry up and report there, maybe we can catch up with the lunch in the cafeteria..."

After putting away the luggage, Mu Aijun patted Zhao Guoyang on the shoulder and said with a smile.

Zhao Guoyang wasn't too worried about the lunch issue. There is no food in the cafeteria, and it is not a big deal for me and Director Mu to go out and solve it casually.

While the two were talking in low voices, they had already gradually arrived at the door of the general management office.

Looking up at the sign hanging on the door, Mu Aijun was about to knock on the door to enter when two people came out.

"Director Zhu, arrangements have been made at the guest house. You can check in now. If you have any other questions, just call me!"

The first person was a thin middle-aged man who looked sick, but his voice was very loud.

The man he called "Director Zhu" was not tall but rather stocky.

"Thank you so much, Director Ma, thank you!" the man shook hands with the middle-aged man with a smile on his face.

The thin middle-aged man smiled and waved his hands and said, "Director Zhu, you're welcome. Serving key enterprises like you is what our general management office should do!"

Director Zhu thanked him a few more words before turning around and preparing to leave.

When he turned around, he was blocked by Zhao Guoyang, and his expression changed slightly.

In fact, this is really no wonder to Zhao Guoyang. The corridor at the entrance of the comprehensive management office is not spacious. Four people standing at the door are naturally a little crowded.

The skinny middle-aged man over there also saw this scene, frowned and looked at Mu Aijun and Zhao Guoyang and asked, "Hey, what are you doing? Why did you come here without being notified?"

Because of the agreement with Director Mu before, Zhao Guoyang did not speak, and Director Mu negotiated with the other party.

However, his silent performance here, seeing the eyes of the other two, made him feel a little contemptuous.

Seeing that Zhao Guoyang had no intention of giving way, the "Director Zhu" turned his head to the middle-aged man and said, "Director Ma, are these two your guests? Can you ask them to hide?"

Hearing this guy's arrogant words, Zhao Guoyang felt a little upset.

On the other side, Mu Aijun was already explaining his identity to the skinny middle-aged man.

"Your number, we are from Hongda Machinery Factory in Ninghai City, Jiangnan Province. We have been notified by the Machinery Industry Department to attend the meeting."

"The notice tells us to come to the general management office and check in after we arrive. Look..."

"Hehe, Director Ma, it turns out that these two are colleagues from the Shandong Agricultural and Forestry Machinery Factory!"

After hearing this, the face of that "Director Zhu" revealed a trace of disdain: "I haven't heard of Hongda Machinery Factory, so it should be for a formality?"
