Rebirth of Siheyuan starts in the 1980s

In this way, this hasty and massive factory-wide meeting officially ended amidst high-pitched slogans.

After this meeting, Cao Zhiqiang didn't know whether bad things turned into good things, thereby increasing the cohesion of the entire factory staff, but he did know that at least from now on, the entire factory staff would have one more person to talk about after dinner.

Moreover, after this incident, Niu Shufen and Zhou Huaien were nailed to the pillar of shame. Even if they were not convicted in the end, their lives were over.

But what Cao Zhiqiang really didn't expect was that for him and Hongguang Publishing House, this matter did not end with this, but many new changes occurred.

In the afternoon after the plenary meeting, Hongguang Machinery Factory sent ten senior financial personnel to Hongguang Publishing House.

Among the ten people, there are both men and women, with an average age of about forty. Among them, six are accountants and four are cashiers, all of whom are truly experienced and clean financial elites.

The arrival of these people immediately filled the vacancy of Hongguang Publishing House's lack of financial personnel, which was equivalent to taking over the financial work of Hongguang Publishing House.

In addition, Hongguang Machinery Factory also appointed Cao Zhiqiang as the official president of Hongguang Publishing House, and the general manager position will also continue to be held concurrently.

In this way, Cao Zhiqiang has become the top leader of Hongguang Publishing House, both in name and in fact. He is no longer the second in command in name as in the past.

However, when Hongguang Machinery Factory officially appointed Cao Zhiqiang as president, it also sent secretary Chen Jiabang to serve as vice president and director of the human resources department of Hongguang Publishing House.

In other words, from now on, Secretary Chen, or Chen Jiabang, will actually be responsible for the personnel work of Hongguang Publishing House.

Of course, despite this, after all, Cao Zhiqiang is the number one, so as long as it is a personnel issue and financial issue of Hongguang Publishing House, it is Cao Zhiqiang who ultimately makes the decision.

In other words, although Chen Jiabang was transferred to be in charge of personnel work, he was still under Cao Zhiqiang and had to obey Cao Zhiqiang's leadership so that there would be no more overstepping.

In addition, Chen Jiabang did not come alone. He also brought two of his subordinates to assist Chen Jiabang in handling personnel and administrative issues.

Chen Jiabang's two subordinates were also administrative secretaries in the factory director's office and had rich experience in internal affairs.

They are not good at anything else, but they are more than capable of managing the internal administrative work of a publishing house.

Originally, Hongguang Machinery Factory had too many management posts, which in layman’s terms made people superfluous and extremely inefficient.

But no matter what, these people still have a lot of experience in office management. At least in this era, you really can't find anywhere else except administrative personnel trained within these large state-owned enterprises.

Apart from anything else, if you go to the street now and want to recruit someone who can write reports, it will be extremely difficult.

To put it bluntly, at this time, 90% of domestic administrative talents are concentrated in government agencies, state-owned enterprises, and private units. At present, there are only self-employed people, and self-employed people do not need so many administrative personnel at all.

But for a nationally renowned publishing house, administrative staff are necessary because only these people understand some procedures.

For example, filing and paying taxes, accounting transactions, etc. Generally, people who don't understand these things really can't do it.

This situation was indeed of great help to Hongguang Machinery Factory at this time, but in fact, it was also an act of seizing power.

Yu Deli told Cao Zhiqiang about this, but Cao Zhiqiang didn't say anything and certainly didn't refuse.

First of all, I can't refuse.

Secondly, for Cao Zhiqiang, he does not need to refuse at all, because it will not harm his interests.

Strictly speaking, although the behavior of Hongguang Machinery Factory is actually a kind of power seizure, it only takes away the power of other people and does not take away Cao Zhiqiang's power.

Because while the main factory was sending people to seize power, they also elevated Cao Zhiqiang's own position, directly becoming the president of the publishing house.

At the same time, Secretary Dong and Factory Director Li became Cao Zhiqiang's introducers, allowing Cao Zhiqiang to quickly become an active activist.

In addition, the identity change process for Cao Zhiqiang's job transfer has also officially begun.

If nothing unexpected happens, Cao Zhiqiang will be able to complete his job and transfer to another position in one year. At most, he can become an official blocker in one year.

In other words, if everything goes well, Cao Zhiqiang will be able to become a cadre with formal qualifications in one year.

Don't underestimate these two identities. In this period, these two identities are still very valuable. Only when these two identities are completed can Cao Zhiqiang's identity as the president of a state-owned enterprise be more stable and no one will question it.

Of course, it is difficult to do this even in this period, but who can let the first and second leaders stand with Cao Zhiqiang?

Secretary Dong and Factory Director Li have personally come forward, and this is the initial stage of reform. Each state-owned factory has a strong sense of autonomy.

Simply put, at this stage, everything is possible, so there is no resistance to Cao Zhiqiang's transformation.

Once you enter the 1990s, it will be difficult to change your identity so casually.

But the most important thing, or the most reassuring thing for Cao Zhiqiang, is that the original affiliation contract has not changed.

Hongguang Publishing House still only needs to pay a certain amount of affiliation fees every year before it can operate independently. Hongguang Machinery Factory did not use this to change the contract and turn the affiliation buyout into a share.

From this perspective, Secretary Dong and Factory Director Li are not trying to kill the goose to get the eggs. They are jealous when Hongguang Publishing House makes money, and they want to rob Cao Zhiqiang of the fruits of his labor.

On the contrary, their approach was more clever, which was to deeply bind Cao Zhiqiang's relationship with Hongguang Machinery Factory by improving his position.

This is not because Secretary Dong and Director Li are not greedy for money, but because they know that the real value is not the publishing house, but Cao Zhiqiang himself.

As long as Cao Zhiqiang himself is bound and Cao Zhiqiang can gradually and truly integrate into the machinery factory, then with his ability, he will naturally be able to lead the machinery factory out of the predicament.

Given the current situation of the Hongguang Machinery Factory, we can no longer engage in internal struggles to hurt our own strength. Instead, we must be eclectic and pursue meritocracy.

Director Li looked at the entire factory and found that the only one who had the hope of leading the entire factory out of the predicament was Cao Zhiqiang, who was barely reliable.

As for everyone else, it's completely impossible.

Therefore, both Factory Director Li and Secretary Dong are now sincerely helping Cao Zhiqiang.

Because they believe that as long as they give sincerely, Cao Zhiqiang will definitely repay the kindness.

In other words, they believe that the next director of Hongguang Machinery Factory is far more attractive than the president of Hongguang Publishing House.

After all, in terms of size and power, the two are not of the same order of magnitude.

While sufficient administrative personnel were dispatched to Hongguang Publishing House to help Hongguang Publishing House overcome the difficulties and regroup, the upper management of Hongguang Machinery Factory also carried out a small reform.

This reform formally confirmed the idea originally proposed by Factory Director Li, which was the "Comprehensive Business Group of the Factory Director's Office", or the Comprehensive Group for short.

I think back when we set up this integrated business group of the factory director's office, it was mainly to facilitate Cao Zhiqiang to direct the transportation department and security department of the machinery factory, and at the same time support the salaries of the staff of these two departments and reduce the burden on Hongguang Machinery Factory.

Since this is only the intention of the factory director Li Siming, it is just an internal organization affiliated with the factory director's office, and is essentially a part of the factory director's office.

To put it bluntly, the reason why the original comprehensive group had the final say was entirely due to the power of Director Li himself, which was tantamount to an extension of Director Li’s own power.

This is also a very common phenomenon during this period, that is, people make things happen, and then according to needs, a certain leader temporarily creates a department, such as a department, a group, or an office, and then handles a certain matter specifically. Once this

Once the matter is dealt with, the temporarily established department will be disbanded.

But in this way, this comprehensive group, which relies on the power of Factory Director Li himself, actually has short legs in terms of power. Strictly speaking, its name is not justified, and it all relies on Factory Director Li's personal prestige.

If this is okay, that's all. If someone like Niu Shufen appears again, insisting on doing the opposite and disobeying orders, sometimes it will be really difficult.

Therefore, perhaps because of the impact of the Niu Shufen incident, Secretary Dong and Factory Director Li convened a high-level meeting. The conference room formally proposed that a new leadership team should be formed within the factory to facilitate the transformation of the company.

Finally, it was voted on within the organization.

Of course it's all formal.

After all, the organizational vote of Hongguang Machinery Factory is actually the internal vote of the factory management committee.

In this factory management committee, except for Secretary Dong, the other members are all employees of Factory Director Li.

Therefore, once the factory management committee is convened, it can basically be regarded as Director Li's statement.

But normally speaking, Secretary Dong would not conflict with Factory Director Li.

Anyway, after an organizational vote that complied with the procedures, it was finally decided to establish a formal new department called the "Tertiary Industry Comprehensive Management Office", referred to as the "Tertiary Industry Office".

As the name suggests, all the tertiary industry departments in the factory, such as the security department, transportation department, hospitals and schools, and other departments that are not part of the production workshop, are under the unified coordination and management of this tertiary industry office.

In terms of ownership, the Third Industry Office is a department directly under the Factory Management Committee. This level is very high, and it is equivalent to legally stipulating the status of the Innovation and Development Office.

In this way, the status of the tertiary industry office is higher than that of other tertiary industry departments, so unified management of other tertiary industry departments will make it smooth and justifiable.

In terms of personnel structure, the Third Industry Office currently has three leaders, namely Secretary Dong, Factory Director Li, and Cao Zhiqiang.

Among them, Secretary Dong concurrently serves as the chief director of the Third Industry Office, and Factory Director Li and Cao Zhiqiang serve as deputy directors respectively.

In other words, there is one director and two deputy directors.

But in the actual work process, Cao Zhiqiang is basically the one who implements the work, while Secretary Dong and Director Li are more of a supporter of Cao Zhiqiang behind the scenes.

As for specific general staff, they can be nominated and recommended by Cao Zhiqiang, and then approved by Secretary Dong and Director Li.

In other words, as long as they are recommended by Cao Zhiqiang and the problems are not major, they can basically pass.

Also, because this is a newly established department, the staff of the Office of Tertiary Industry and Industry are not limited to business staff and worker staff, but some contract workers can also be employed.

Therefore, people like Li Youfu and Zhang Qianjin, who do not have formal establishments, can theoretically enter this tertiary industry office as contract workers.

For this reason, Cao Zhiqiang also invented a word called appointment-based officer.

After the tertiary industry comprehensive management office is formally established, it will be written into the official charter of the factory, and it can legally coordinate and manage all tertiary industry departments in the factory.

However, this unified coordination and management only unified management and coordination of various tertiary industry departments when necessary. Normally, each department still manages its own affairs.

In addition, in terms of funding, in the future, all tertiary industry departments will be gradually separated from the factory’s mainstream financial system and an independent financial system will be established.

In other words, from now on, the various administrative expenses of all tertiary production departments in the factory, such as the transportation department, security department, publicity department, as well as hospitals, schools, publishing houses, etc., and all non-industrial production departments, will also be covered.

The wages, bonuses and other salaries of cadres and employees are paid by the tertiary industry comprehensive management office.

Of course, the income generated by the tertiary industry department is only managed by the tertiary industry comprehensive management office and is no longer directly included in the finance of Hongguang Machinery Factory.

Although it is financially independent, the human resources department is still under the unified responsibility of the Human Resources Department of Hongguang Machinery Factory for the time being.

The reason for this is not that we don’t want to make human resources independent, but that compared with financial independence, human resources independence is more complicated and troublesome.

After all, for a state-owned factory, there is not only a staff establishment, but also a cadre establishment, plus temporary contract workers. The personnel ownership issues are complicated and difficult to separate at once.

But no matter what, being able to financially divest it is a big step forward.

You know, for Hongguang Machinery Factory, the production department, that is, the original production workshop, is actually still making a profit.

After all, it is still a planned economy. Whatever the factory produces, tasks are assigned from above, and the factory produces according to the tasks.

As for the dual-track system, that is, the system where unplanned parts can be issued batches and taken to the market, at the moment anyway, production units such as Hongguang Machinery Factory have not started to implement it, and only some mining companies have started trial operations.

In other words, the main reason why Hongguang Machinery Factory cannot make ends meet and needs government subsidies for a long time is the huge tertiary industry sector.

Most of these tertiary industry departments do not create profits and are mostly pure expenditure departments.

For example, the Publicity Section includes workers at the Workers' Theater, film projectionists, actors and singers from the Workers' Art Troupe, and other entertainers. They are all paid at this time.

As for their performance activities, they usually perform for factory employees, perform in brother departments, or perform in people's communes in the countryside.

All these performances are basically free for the factory and generate no income.

Only those who work in specific operations, such as movie projectionists, cabaret actors, singers, etc., can make some extra money privately when they go to the countryside to show movies or perform in the countryside.

There are also hospitals. Factory-run hospitals provide free medical treatment to factory workers, and medicines are cheaper than outside. They are basically purchased at the purchase price. However, the factory is responsible for all water and electricity bills, salaries of doctors and nurses, etc., which means it cannot make ends meet for a long time.

Not to mention schools.

The tertiary industry is not only large in number and expenditure, but also has many people and many things to do.

If the tertiary industry can be packaged and divested and its finances become independent, then Hongguang Machinery Factory can definitely pack up and start over.

Anyway, from the perspective of Director Li and Secretary Dong, the tertiary industry in the factory is a burden, and it would be best to get rid of it as soon as possible.

But they don't know that in Cao Zhiqiang's eyes, these burdens are just golden money and a bright future.

Even for hospitals and schools with the least hope of making money, the land below is greedy enough!

This is all within the third ring road!

Not to mention, schools and hospitals at this time still have their own special rights.

For example, a school can open a school to run a factory, while a hospital can build a medical school.

These powers will be extremely difficult to pass in the future.

But here, they can really open and do whatever they want, and there is basically no supervision.

With all this power, is it still difficult to make money?
