Rebirth of Siheyuan starts in the 1980s

Cao Zhiqiang felt that compared to Factory Director Li's idea, although Secretary Chen's plan was more crude, it was more reliable, safer, and less difficult to implement.

Of course, this is not surprising. After all, Director Li, as a senior leader, is more of a high-level person and gives direction, but when it comes to specific implementation, he has to be a secretary.

This also shows from the side that no matter who you offend, don't offend the leadership secretary, because the leadership secretary is often more ruthless and more deadly.

It seems that Secretary Chen’s methods are better.

"No, Xiao Cao, you underestimate Factory Director Li."

Secretary Chen Jiabang, who was driving a jeep to the publishing house with Cao Zhiqiang and was about to bring Niu Shufen over, immediately sighed and shook his head after hearing this.

"This method of mine is really just a trick. Do you think Director Li can't do it? No, that's definitely not the case!"

Immediately afterwards, Chen Jiabang started explaining while driving.

According to Secretary Chen, Director Li also came up from the position of secretary, so there is no reason why Secretary Chen’s plan was unexpected.

The reason why Director Li didn't tell Cao Zhiqiang about Secretary Chen's method at first is more likely that Director Li is nostalgic, or he likes to stay on the sidelines and doesn't want to do things too well.

Because if Director Li's method was used, Niu Shufen would be committing a job crime at best.

At that time, given her family's background, as long as she pays back the money in time, pleads guilty with a better attitude, and voluntarily resigns with discernment, it is estimated that the matter will be settled in the end. At most, Niu Shufen can retire early and go home, so that her reputation will not be ruined.

It's so troublesome that you won't be able to survive in your old age.

On the other hand, Secretary Chen's plan starts directly from the relationship between men and women. It is despicable and fatal. Once the crime is proven, it will be beyond redemption. It will not protect you in your old age, your reputation will be ruined, and your reputation will be ruined.

At that time, not only Niu Shufen will be unable to hold her head up for the rest of her life, but her family will also be implicated, and they will be unable to hold their heads up.

Factory Director Li's purpose is just to exclude people like Niu Shufen from leaving the factory and minimize Cao Zhiqiang's obstruction. In this case, he only needs to get Niu Shufen away, and there is no need to make it so serious.

"So that's it." Cao Zhiqiang nodded, "If that's the case, why did you use your strategy in the end?"

Secretary Chen was silent for a moment, and then said with a stern face: "Because I told Director Li that his idea is very dangerous, because people like Niu Shufen, who have a deep background and a lot of energy, are like a poisonous snake and will never read

It's better not to say anything, and once the snake survives, it will suffer the consequences instead.

Take Factory Manager Li's plan for example. The execution process itself is too complicated, and the more complicated a thing is, the more weaknesses it has and the less it can withstand scrutiny.

If Niu Shufen was an ordinary worker, I wouldn't say anything, but Niu Shufen's man is still working in the factory and is the section chief of the administrative department, so he already has a lot of energy.

Moreover, Niu Shufen's uncles, seven aunts and eight aunts are not easy to mess with.

These people may not have much contact with each other in normal times, but once something happens to someone in the family, the whole family will support them from all directions and act unanimously to the outside world.

This has nothing to do with whether you like Niu Shufen as a person or not, but a rule, a hidden rule of survival for large families to join together for warmth.

Because once a member of a family is in trouble and other relatives don't care about it, the family's cohesion will be lost and its deterrent effect will be gone.

What is the old Beiping's big house, big family, this is it."

Cao Zhiqiang frowned and said, "Weren't all these big family families suppressed back then? Why are they still there?"

Secretary Chen smiled slightly: "It was the old family that was defeated, but once the emperor and his courtiers changed, new big families would always arise. As long as people still have family ties and relatives, the power of the family will not be broken.

Am I right?"

Cao Zhiqiang nodded thoughtfully: "That's right."

"So." Secretary Chen said with a smile, "For people like Niu Shufen, Factory Director Li may want to let her go in nostalgia, but Niu Shufen may not be good at it, and she may not be willing to sit back and die. He will definitely gather the strength of the whole family to launch a counterattack.

.

Once Niu Shufen makes the matter bigger and insists that we framed her, the lack of money in the treasury alone will not bring Niu Shufen down.

Because there are too many possibilities for the lack of money in the treasury. It could be that Niu Shufen took it privately, you could take it privately, or it could be a thief.

As for burning the account books, unless there are many absolutely reliable witnesses who saw Niu Shufen burning the account books with their own eyes, Niu Shufen can refute the fact that the account books were burned by someone else.

In addition, you had some issues with Niu Shufen before, so it is easy to target you, or even Director Li, which is possible.

Even if Director Li found someone to give false evidence and accuse Niu Shufen of burning the account books, as long as Niu Shufen was killed, it would be a frame-up. Given Niu Shufen's relationship with the court, this matter would probably be difficult to handle.

After all, one or two witnesses are useless. Only three or more witnesses can be effective.

But if three or more people give false testimony, it is difficult to find these three people, and the variables are too great, and it is easy for them to be defeated individually.

In the end, even if everything goes well and Niu Shufen is fired, if she is unwilling to do so, she may think it was you.

When the time comes, Niu Shufen will show off her old face and use all kinds of connections to cause trouble for you, and you will really be in trouble.

Therefore, for someone like Niu Shufen, either you should leave her alone, avoid her, or make friends with her.

Either that, she will be beaten to death with a stick, and she must not be allowed to come back to her senses and bite her back.

Especially since Niu Shufen is not alone, and there is a very powerful family behind her, you have to be even more careful.

Therefore, to deal with Niu Shufen, we must first make her reputation so bad that no one dares to help her, and even Niu Shufen herself thinks that she is the one responsible for the crime.

In this case, we can continue to deal with her and prevent her and the family behind her from taking revenge.

Director Li listened to my words and was willing to use my method. In the final analysis, it was out of the desire to protect and care for you, so Xiao Cao, please don’t forget Director Li’s kindness in the future."

"This is natural." Cao Zhiqiang said quickly, "I will never forget Director Li's great kindness. After all, it was thanks to Director Li that I was able to join the factory in the first place. I have never forgotten this."

"Remember what you said today." Secretary Chen said with half-squinted eyes, "Don't forget it, otherwise, even if you become the director of the factory in the future, your job will not be stable."

Cao Zhiqiang frowned: "Old Chen, you know this? You don't really think that Factory Director Li wants to recommend me to be the factory director, do you? How is this possible? In this factory, there are many more people who are qualified to be the factory director than me.

, for example, you are very suitable, how could you choose me?"

Secretary Chen smiled slightly: "Normally speaking, you really have no chance at all, because your qualifications, age and other factors are too poor, and you are not qualified at all.

But Hongguang Machinery Factory, no, the current Hongguang Machinery Factory is different.

The meaning above is actually very clear. It is planned to take action on our Hongguang Machinery Factory after a period of time, dismantle our factory, and then the municipal government and Shougang will divide us all up.

The so-called "let us think about it" is just a temporary statement to give us time to adapt.

Furthermore, if they want to do this, they need to make a lot of preparations, and it cannot be done overnight.

At the very least, we need to give the people below a break first so that everyone can be mentally prepared to avoid causing trouble when the time comes.

In other words, if nothing unexpected happens, Director Li is likely to be the last director of our factory, if Hongguang Machinery Factory cannot be saved.

In this case, no one will want to compete to be the next factory director, because everyone knows that this is impossible.

When the time comes, capable people will find ways to transfer them in advance to a better unit.

As for those who are incompetent, do you think they have a chance to become factory directors?"

"What about Secretary Chen?" Cao Zhiqiang asked, "What do you think? You don't want to be the factory director?"

"Me?" Secretary Chen was stunned, then smiled and shook his head.

"It's impossible for me to be the director of a factory, at least not the director of a factory in Beijing. Do you know why? Because I'm a foreigner."

Cao Zhiqiang was puzzled: "What's wrong with outsiders? We are a new society. Many big leaders are from outside the country. Even Secretary Dong is not a native of the capital. Why can't you?"

Secretary Chen shook his head: "They are different. They are from the founding era and belong to the pioneering generation. I am different. I don't have their background.

I came to school from out of town. After graduation, I came here for an internship, and was appreciated by Factory Director Li and stayed here.

It can be said that I was just here alone at that time. My parents, relatives, or my roots were all in other places in the countryside, and there was no way they could help me here.

It's useless even if my relatives are here. They are all ordinary farmers and can't help me at all. It's better not to let me help.

In the eyes of the old Beijing people, I am an outsider. I have no problem being a secretary. But if I were to be a factory director, many people would be dissatisfied.

If you really think about it, maybe my children and grandchildren can be called Peiping people for the rest of their lives, but I am afraid that I will never be able to tear off the label of an outsider in my lifetime.

Of course, this is not the most important thing.

The most important thing is that even if I become the factory director, I can't save this factory, but Director Li said, you can."

Speaking of this, Secretary Chen glanced at Cao Zhiqiang, and then continued driving slowly: "Although I don't believe it myself, I believe in Factory Director Li's vision.

Just like when Director Li, with his keen eye for people, kept me and asked me to be his secretary.

So, whether I believe it or not, as long as Director Li says it, I will definitely implement it, so don’t worry about this."

Cao Zhiqiang opened his mouth wide: "Wow, does this mean that a scholar dies for his confidant?"

Secretary Chen smiled slightly: "Maybe, but you are a native of Beijing, not me, and you have no idea how much kindness Director Li showed to me when he left me behind.

Don't look at the fact that I was admitted to a technical secondary school in Beijing. It looked very good. I was a cadre as soon as I graduated and could be assigned jobs. But in fact, after graduation, I could only go back to my place of origin to arrange a job. If I wanted to stay in Beijing, it was simply impossible.

It's just a fool's errand, unless you have someone to help you.

At that time, if I went back to my place of origin, it’s hard to say whether I would starve to death, but a lot of my family would definitely starve to death.

However, Director Li kept me and asked me to work in Hongguang Machinery Factory. This was the gift of reinvention.

If I stay here, I can settle in the capital. I will have a registered permanent residence in the capital. I can bring my parents and younger siblings over here, and then I can raise them as a family. At least they won't have to starve to death.

From this perspective, Director Li is our family’s benefactor and saved our family’s lives. So, do you think I should repay the favor?”

"That's right!" Cao Zhiqiang nodded quickly and in a serious tone, "That's right! If it were me, I would do the same."

Secretary Chen glanced at Cao Zhiqiang, and after seeing his expression, nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, at least on this point, you and I have a common language."

"That's right!" Cao Zhiqiang continued in a serious tone, "I also think that Brother Chen, you are a temperamental person and very suitable for me! To be honest, I have no culture and am a rough guy, but I like this kind of thing.

A loyal person!"

Secretary Chen smiled hoarsely: "Are you a bigot? Uncultured? Don't be ridiculous. You are now a strong son and a famous poet. My son and daughter both like your poems very much."

Cao Zhiqiang chuckled: "Oh, it's all a fluke, a fluke. Besides, poets can't be loyal, right?

Li Bai is also crazy about playing swordsmanship and drunkenness, how can he be a poet?"

"That's right." Secretary Chen nodded with a smile.

Immediately afterwards, Secretary Chen's expression became serious: "Seriously, Director Li once discussed with me in private about the way out for our factory.

The result of the final discussion was that rectification of our factory is what we said above, and it is what we said above. It is a general trend and cannot be stopped.

However, after all, we are a large factory with more than 8,000 people, and we have too much history and honors.

In addition, we have also had close cooperative relationships with many military industrial units. Even now, we are still supplying parts to some military industrial units.

Not to mention honor and history, our factory has more than 8,000 people, which is a competitive capital.

In fact, the above did not say that our factory must be split up. They just want us to be responsible for our own profits and losses and stop asking the government for money all day long.

No matter the country or local area, there is a shortage of money everywhere. If we continue to support our factory, this will indeed be a burden.

But if we keep our factory but do not provide subsidies to our factory, then the more than 8,000 cadres and workers will not be able to pay their wages. The impact will not be on more than 8,000 people, but on more than 40,000 people. After all, there are still many

Family members of employees.

If so many people make a fuss, many people won't be able to suppress it.

That's why they thought of splitting up our factory in the name of rectification. In this way, the more than 8,000 employees and related family members of the employees would be separated, and naturally they would not be able to form a fist, and it would be difficult to achieve anything.

Therefore, as long as we can find new ways to make money and support our more than 8,000 employees, the superiors will not force us to make corrections.

To put it bluntly, it's still a human problem.

As long as you can solve the food problem for all workers in the factory, no matter how young you are, no matter how inexperienced you are, no matter how many problems you have, at this moment when the whole factory is in danger of survival, if you become the director of the factory, absolutely no one will

against you.

Because you have given everyone a job, given everyone hope, and allowed everyone to continue to survive, everyone will only be grateful to you and support you.

With the support of the masses, if Director Li takes the opportunity to recommend you, it will be certain that you will become the director.

Although I think you may not be able to do this, Director Li believes in you and wants you to give it a try, so I can only execute it.

Then, before fighting against the outside world, one must first make peace with the inside.

Since Director Li wants you to go ahead and do it, he must first help you remove the stumbling blocks on your way forward.

For example, this Niu Shufen, Factory Manager Li is actually very kind to her. After all, her father is an old factory manager and he was kind to Director Li in the past.

However, for the sake of all employees in the factory, Director Li no longer cares about this, and even wants to go out personally to kick this stumbling block away for you.

It can be said that Director Li risked his life for you, no, it should be said that he was able to retain this factory and give all the factory workers a way out.

Because of the design of Niu Shufen, if something goes wrong, he will probably lose his job.

Director Li's methods may be disgraceful, but his intentions are good and are for the good of more people, you must understand this!"

"Understood, I understand very well!" Cao Zhiqiang nodded seriously.

With a creak, Secretary Chen stopped the jeep, put on the handbrake, and sighed:

"In short, don't live up to Director Li's expectations, and don't forget Director Li's kindness.

As long as you can do this, I will be happy to assist you with all my strength, do you understand?"

Cao Zhiqiang squinted at Chen Jiabang, who had a serious face, and finally smiled slightly: "I understand Director Li's kindness better than anyone else.

It can be said that without Director Li, I would not be where I am now.

If Director Li hadn't agreed to let me join the factory, I wouldn't be where I am today, and I'd probably still be an unemployed vagrant.

So, Old Chen, you don’t need to remind me. Even if you don’t say it, I will never forget Director Li’s kindness.

A true man must avenge his enemies and repay his favors.

Whoever I forget, I can’t forget Director Li!”

Chen Jiabang looked carefully at Cao Zhiqiang's face, then smiled and nodded:

"The place is here, get off the car, let's go see Niu Shufen, and remove this stumbling block as soon as possible to clear the way for you!"
