The scope of the match factory can be considered medium to large, with a total of nearly seven or eight workshops. The boiler room is open all year round. It must not only ensure the existence of heating in winter, but also ensure the supply of thermal power machines in the factory in summer.
It seems that the boiler room is a marginalized position, but its importance is comparable to the highest level in the factory.
Chen Zhen kept running to the door of the boiler room. The door was more than three meters wide. There were several wooden rocking chairs at the door. A few uncles sat on the chairs and smoked. There were cigarette butts on the ground next to them. .
Zheng Guangming!
At this time, Zheng Guangming was not as energetic as in suits and leather shoes as on TV.
He has a dark complexion and a stooped body. He holds a shovel in his hand and shovels coal mechanically. His face is covered with ashes, and the white cloth mask he is wearing has already turned black.
"Uncle Zheng, I am Chen Zhen from the third workshop. You can just call me Xiao Chen."
"I see you've been working hard since you came here this morning, so take a break and drink some water or something."
"We'd better do this job more vigorously. I can help you with it."
As he spoke, Chen Zhen handed over the transparent water glass next to him, diffused a cigarette, took the shovel from Zheng Guangming's hand and started drying it.
Zheng Guangming looked confused. He had only been in the factory for three days, and he had no acquaintances of the same age in the factory. Why was this young man so enthusiastic?
Zheng Guangming wanted to continue working nearby, but Chen Zhen stopped him. He was so busy that the whole morning passed without him noticing.
When I applied to be transferred to a large state-owned factory in China, I thought for a long time on the investigation list before choosing this one of the few match factories in the country.
Not even the upper-level leaders of the match factory knew about this news. Could this news have been leaked?
It shouldn't be.
Zheng Guangming looked inside and outside. Chen Zhen, who was running back and forth, couldn't help but feel something. He thought for a moment and walked over: "Xiao Chen, you are very tired after the day. You said you would give up the work in the workshop." , what are you doing here, an old man like me?"
Chen Zhen wiped the hot sweat from his forehead, smiled, threw the last coal in, and closed the boiler door skillfully.
"We are so different in age and have never met before. Besides, I am a deserter... so you are not afraid of getting close to me and getting involved in right and wrong..."
Zheng Guangming said with a hint of temptation that just the title of deserter could scare away many people, which was why people in the boiler room rarely chatted with him in private.
"Oh, Uncle Zheng, who doesn't know the identity of the deserter is just a misunderstanding. There are so many deserters in this era. They are not all just false names... I think you are still fighting on the front line in your fifties. I have to say Let’s learn from you, right?”
Chen Zhen squinted his eyes and smiled, not caring about Zheng Guangming's identity at all. This also made Zheng Guangming put down his guard. Maybe this kid is really warm-hearted?
Chen Zhen built a million-dollar industry in the entrepreneurial wave of later generations. When he encountered entrepreneurial bottlenecks, he even thought about getting to know Zheng Guangming on TV. Unfortunately, Zheng Guangming was no longer alive at that time.
"Brother Zhen, brother Zhen, leave quickly, something big has happened!"
Just when Chen Zhen and Zheng Guangming were standing nearby chatting, Sun Ergou ran over and shouted, panting heavily.
"what's up?"
"You...that old dog Liu fired you!"
"What the hell?"
Chen Zhen was stunned for a moment, then turned around, said hello to Zheng Guangming, and ran out with Sun Ergou.
on the bulletin board.
"Notice on Personnel Changes at Pingjiang County State-owned Match Factory": In order to reduce the operation of high-load personnel in the factory, increase revenue and expenditure, reduce costs, and expand profits, the following contract temporary workers are hereby cleared. If you have any objections, you can contact Director Liu Guohai .
The name Chen Zhen is clearly written on the list at the bottom of the document.
Good on you, old dog Liu!
I just came back from the supervision department and haven't stopped. When did it become your turn as a workshop director to intervene in personnel changes in the factory?
What do you want from the Human Resources Department?
Sun Ergou looked at the bulletin board with a look of dissatisfaction and said angrily: "I just contacted Che Rang to pick up the goods at the back door. I was thinking of asking Brother Zhen to talk to the factory about getting the goods, but who knew I heard the news!"
"Brother Zhen, this old dog Liu is really not a human being!"
Chen Zhen raised his brows slightly as he looked at those words, and the anger in his heart also surged up. His father's affairs had not been explained clearly, and there was no way to change his job. At this time, he wanted to completely drive him out of the match factory in order to avoid it. Trouble later?
Chen Zhen touched the things in his pocket, pondered for a moment, then raised his head with a calm expression: "Let's go to the office!"
Liu Guohai's office.
"Brother-in-law, you are really capable. If you say you want to fire him, fire him. Our factory has never eliminated temporary workers before. What you say is so direct!"
Zhao Xiangming praised him flatteringly and raised his thumb.
Liu Guohai put out the cigarette butt in his hand and said with a villainous expression on his lips: "Chen Zhen really thinks that just by reporting me casually, everything will be over? He has to pay the price for his actions!"
"Whenever he begs me, just wait."
Zhao Xiangming grinned and laughed: "Hahaha, please? I'm afraid he doesn't even have time to beg you. For the batch of more than 5,000 high-end matches in the factory, this guy didn't know what kind of god he was, but he actually signed a contract with me directly. Agency contract.”
"If the contract cannot be completed, triple compensation will be required. He might have already found a way to run away by now!"
kindness?
Chen Zhen signed a sales agency contract?
Liu Guohai's heart skipped a beat for some reason. Chen Zhen felt that something was wrong now, and this contract didn't seem to be as simple as he imagined.
But after much deliberation, Liu Guohai couldn't figure out what went wrong.
Liu Guohai stood up and walked around for a few times. His mind was almost burning. Instead of thinking about it, he turned around and asked in a low voice: "By the way, have you got the money back for the batch of goods the day before yesterday? Although that cart of things is The old gadgets retired from the factory are worth a lot of money."
When Zhao Xiangming heard this, he immediately sighed and said, "Oh, brother-in-law, don't mention it. The person who received the goods is not our old customer. He didn't pay us this time."
"What? No money? How can that be done? The single-arm hydraulic press alone is worth a lot of money."
"He was talking about the single-arm hydraulic press. He insisted that it was missing an important part and couldn't be used. In the past, he could only charge the scrap metal price of ten or twenty yuan."
"Missing parts? It only costs a dozen yuan, but it sells for hundreds, and people are rushing to get it."
Liu Guohai was even more confused now. This thing was not defective due to quality issues. Why was it missing parts when it was intact?
A bad premonition came...
"Plop!"
There was a sound of pushing the door open.
"Chen Zhen?"
Liu Guohai moved a few times, and for a moment he didn't know where to put his hands. His panic look was a bit funny. Although he had already expected Chen Zhen's appearance, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous when the topic of chat came up at such a sensitive time.
Liu Guohai shouted, quickly turned around and tidied up, pretending to be nonchalant, picked up the tea cup and took a sip, slowly smashing the tea leaves in his mouth and spitting it on the ground.
Zhao Xiangming also sneered: "Director Liu has known for a long time that you are coming. There is no need to discuss the personnel changes. The announcement has been made!"
Chen Zhen was calm and composed, looking straight at Liu Guohai without saying anything.
Liu Guohai suffered unprecedented humiliation in front of Chen Zhen two days ago, and now he wanted to embarrass Chen Zhen even more.
"Children, you always have to pay the price for your immature behavior. This is your childish behavior!"
"Of course, although the announcement has been made, there is nothing that can be done about it. In this way, if you kneel down and kowtow to me, I can consider it!"
Liu Guohai's evil smile made Chen Zhen feel sick.
Chen Zhen would never be able to do such a thing in his life, kowtow to an "enemy who killed his father."
Chen Zhen's eyes glared angrily, bloodshot eyes showed through his eyes. He was silent for a moment and said: "Director Liu, don't be arrogant. Don't talk nonsense about things that are not finalized."
What's the meaning? !
Liu Guohai was just about to retort, but what Chen Zhen had in his hand made him dumbfounded on the spot.
