Chapter 46 Tough Times

"Deputy Director Wu, if I don't do this, I can't convince the people in the branch, especially those colleagues who have already divided the houses." Zhao Dongsheng said with a wry smile, with a look of helplessness.

Wu Kui and Bai Keming looked at each other when they heard this. The two of them stopped persuading Zhao Dongsheng. They had no better way to appease the people in the electrical appliance branch than Zhao Dongsheng.

"Since that's the case, Xiao Liu, just make your request." Zhang Haishan said calmly when he saw this.

"My requirements are very simple. First, the electrical appliance branch was independent from the machinery factory and became a subsidiary of the municipal government. Second, the machinery factory divided us into a territory." Zhao Dongsheng thought for a moment, and Hongsheng put forward his own conditions.

"You start from scratch and do you need financial support? We will try our best to meet your requirements." Bai Keming felt that Zhao Dongsheng's request was too simple, which was completely beyond his expectations. After exchanging a look with Wu Kui, he said with a smile.

"Thank you, Director Bai. I appreciate the feelings of the leaders, but the factory is now very tight, so we won't cause trouble for the factory." Zhao Dongsheng smiled slightly and rejected Bai Keming's kindness. He was unwilling to accept some small favors from the machinery factory at this time, so as not to become a handle for others in the future. Since the electrical appliance branch wants to break the situation with the machinery factory, it is better to break it clean.

Since Zhao Dongsheng's request was reasonable, the two sides quickly discussed an independent plan for the electrical appliance branch, and Bai Keming, Wu Kui and Zhang Haishan went to report to Gu Liancheng.

When Gu Liancheng learned that Zhao Dongsheng was willing to give up the 180-square-meter house and wanted to start a separate business with the electrical appliance branch, he immediately became interested in this high-level student who graduated from Yan University. Although the above people now require everyone to liberate their minds and strive for innovation, there are very few cadres like Zhao Dongsheng who dare to explore.

Therefore, Gu Liancheng wanted to meet this "bold and arrogant" young man, so he asked his secretary to call Zhao Dongsheng into the office.

"Hello mayor." Zhao Dongsheng nodded slightly at Gu Liancheng after entering the door and shouted quietly.

"Sit." Gu Liansheng saw that Dongsheng was a handsome talent, and his words and deeds were quite appropriate, and he did not play at all. He had a very good first impression of Zhao Dongsheng, so he pointed to the sofa next to him.

"Xiao Zhao, what are your plans for the future of the electrical appliance branch?" Gu Liancheng asked in a deep voice after Zhao Dongsheng sat down.

"Mayor, we think that with the development of the economy, the domestic electrical appliance market will get better and better in the future. We are now working on a tape recorder and are preparing to use it as a stepping stone to open the door to the market." Zhao Dongsheng said with his body facing Gu Liancheng sideways.

"I'm quite confident, but how can you make sure that your stepping stone can knock on the door of the market?" Gu Liancheng smiled slightly and asked with interest. It's simple to open the market, but it's too difficult to actually operate. As the head of a city, he has a deep understanding of this. The competitiveness in this market is simply too fierce.

"We will definitely gain something based on the knowledge we have learned and the hard work of everyone!" Zhao Dongsheng answered in an orderly manner when he heard this.

"I am really a top student at Yan University, with such a courage." Gu Liancheng laughed. He now admired the young man in front of him, so he said to Zhao Dongsheng in front of Zhang Haishan and the other two, "If the sales of your product can exceed one million next year, then I will personally send you a certificate of honor."

Although Gu Liancheng said this, it was certainly a way to appreciate Zhao Dongsheng, but it was more of a kind of comfort. After all, it was very valuable to make a decision to establish a self-owned business, and it promptly and effectively resolved the current crisis facing the machinery factory.

"Mayor, I remember your words." Zhao Dongsheng also laughed, "I don't need any certificate of honor. As long as you can go to the factory to guide your work, it will be the greatest encouragement to us."

"Okay, then we'll make up for it." Gu Liancheng felt that what Zhao Dongsheng said was very pleasant, so he nodded with a smile. He didn't mind showing his kind side in front of Zhao Dongsheng.

To be honest, Gu Liancheng was just a casual statement at this time. He didn't believe that the poor electrical appliance branch's sales will reach one million next year.

The extraordinary achievements made by the electrical appliance factory led by Zhao Dongsheng next year not only surprised Gu Liancheng, but also eliminated the negative impact caused by the assembly line of the machinery factory, and became his most brilliant political achievement when he was in charge of Huangzhou.

Because of this unexpected meeting between the two, Zhao Dongsheng and Gu Liancheng met once, laying a good foundation for the future meeting between the two.

When Zhao Dongsheng and Zhang Haishan returned to the machinery factory, it was almost time to get off work. Bai Keming, Wu Kui and Zhang Haishan immediately convened the middle-level cadres in the factory to hold a meeting and announced to them that in order to accelerate the reform of municipal state-owned enterprises, the city has decided to use the electrical appliance branch as a pilot project to separate the electrical appliance branch from the machinery factory and establish a new unit - Huangzhou Electric Appliance Factory.

According to the city's policies, the various treatments of the electrical appliance factory are the same as those of the previous electrical appliance branch. They receive basic salary within two years and bear their own profits and losses after two years. The difference is that they change a new brand again, and the salary is no longer in the books of the machinery factory, but in the city's finances, and they have completely become brother units of the machinery factory.

However, since the city's financial plan for this year was already completed at the beginning of the year and could not make separate arrangements for the electrical appliance factory, the salary of the electrical appliance factory will still be on the books of the machinery factory this year, and the finance will be on the finance next year. The city will return the salary received by the electrical appliance factory from the machinery factory to the machinery factory next year.

In return, the electrical appliance factory will give the machinery factory an annual profit of 30% for three consecutive years in two years, which is considered the electrical appliance factory’s thanks to the machinery factory.

It must also be emphasized that since the electrical appliance factory and the machinery factory are two brother units that do not belong to each other, the people from the electrical appliance factory will not be able to participate in the distribution of the machinery factory.

Also, if someone in the machinery factory wants to join the electrical appliance factory, he can submit the application form to Zhao Dongsheng before getting off work tomorrow afternoon.

In addition, a factory-wide conference will be held tomorrow night, the list of new house allocators will be officially announced, and the house selection will be carried out on the spot according to the ranking.

After learning the above amazing news, the middle-level cadres at the meeting started to get upset. No one was mentally prepared. He never thought that the electrical appliance branch would be suddenly "swept out" and then they realized that this incident was probably related to the distribution of new houses that had been causing a lot of controversy in the factory recently.

At the same time, Zhao Dongsheng also gathered the people from the electrical appliance branch and told everyone about leaving the machinery factory and being unable to divide the new house.

After all, this matter is of great importance, which means that you cannot go back to the machinery factory in the future. Zhao Dongsheng specifically stated at the end that if anyone wants to go back to the machinery factory, then the application form will be handed over to the machinery factory tomorrow, and then the transfer can be returned to the machinery factory.

After Zhao Dongsheng's words fell, the scene was silent, and everyone's face showed a look of surprise. No matter what, I would never have imagined that such a thing would happen.

Niu Baoguo was the first to know about this. Zhao Dongsheng told him as soon as he came back, sitting in the chair beside Zhao Dongsheng, smoking a cigarette with a serious expression.

In addition to Zhao Dongsheng, among those who have been assigned to new houses in the electrical appliance branch, Shuniu Baoguo has the largest area, reaching 135 square meters.

Like the families of other people in the factory who can be assigned to houses, Niu Baoguo's wife Wu Lan has already visited those houses these days. According to the ranking order, everyone actually knows which house they can get and talks about decoration with great interest.

If Niu Baoguo stayed in the electrical appliance factory, he would not be able to get the 135-year-old house. There was no doubt that this would hurt Wu Lan's heart. However, the current situation of the electrical appliance branch was so good that he really couldn't bear to leave. He found the passion of fighting hard when he was young here.

"I am the factory director. I will express my opinion first. I stay. The incident happened suddenly. Don't worry. Choose according to your actual situation. Even if you leave, we will still be brothers in the future. Although I know that there should be no guarantee at this time, I still want to solemnly promise everyone that our products will go all over the country within three years, and everyone can live in the building. If I can't do it, I will stand at the factory gate and slap myself two big mouths!" In silence, Zhao Dongsheng took the lead in breaking the deadlock in the field, stood up, looked around at the people around him, and then shouted with pride, "Split up the meeting!"

After saying that, Zhao Dongsheng walked out of the workshop and said to himself, emotionally, he really didn't want anyone to leave. As long as he survived this level, he could welcome the joy of a bumper harvest next year. He was confident that the electrical appliance factory would become a hit at the International Electronics Fair held in Paris, but he couldn't tell anyone clearly about this.

As the saying goes, it is easy to enjoy the cool air by leaning on a big tree. Once you leave the machinery factory, there is no way out. Destiny is completely tied to the electrical appliance factory. This is really an accidental pressure.

In fact, what Zhao Dongsheng was worried about was not the people from the electrical branch. Since they were willing to come here to work, they must have a spirit of not admitting defeat and not afraid of hardship, and what made him worry about was their home.

Almost all the people in the electrical appliance branch are children of the machinery factory. The parents or ancestors are in the machinery factory and they will definitely not be willing to leave the machinery factory, and they will definitely interfere at that time.

Every family has a difficult sutra. Zhao Dongsheng fully understands the ways of his family. Who doesn’t want his children to have a stable and promising job? The current electrical appliance factories cannot meet their requirements at all.
