Rebirth of the Industrial Tycoon

The scale of the electrical appliance factory surprised Sister Zhang. It is much bigger than the previous garment factory!

Sister Zhang even felt that even the Qinghe City Transportation Company was not as big as the Puppy Electric Appliance Factory.

The current electrical factory, after several expansions, has nearly 4,000 employees. Of course, the number is still not as good as that of Qinghe Transportation Company.

However, the workers of the electrical factory are concentrated in one factory area, while the transportation company has multiple branches.

For example, in the previous transportation company, there were dozens of tertiary industries, large and small, plus the branch companies in each county, the passenger station in each county, and even the bus station, all under the jurisdiction of the transportation company.

There are thousands of people in the entire transportation company, and they are distributed everywhere, so it doesn't appear that there are too many people.

The electrical factory is different. Nearly 4,000 people are all in one place. In the factory area, there are not only working areas, but also living areas. Whenever shifts are handed over, nearly 4,000 workers are dispatched collectively, and the scene is indeed very powerful.

As long as there are enough people, it's like a big business!

Sister Zhang originally thought that a small factory like Li Weidong could employ 200 to 300 people, even if it was the limit, but she did not expect nearly 4,000 people here. This suddenly refreshed Sister Zhang's understanding of self-employed.

In Zhang Jie's view, Li Weidong is no longer a self-employed person, but a big capitalist!

Ordinary people at that time did not have the concept of "entrepreneur" or "industrialist". In the era when state-owned enterprises dominated, the leaders of enterprises were more like bureaucrats, and their daily work was mainly administrative management, not business management. , of course not to mention any entrepreneur.

Li Weidong, a factory with thousands of workers, has become a "big capitalist" in the eyes of ordinary people.

What surprised Sister Zhang even more was that the management of Puppy Electric Factory was much stricter than that of the transportation company.

At that time, the management system of Chinese enterprises was relatively backward. At that time, enterprise management mainly focused on labor discipline, such as not being late, not leaving early, and going to get off work on time.

The management of electrical appliance factories is completely different. Not only does it focus on labor discipline, but all the rules and regulations in the work are clearly defined, and a reward and punishment system has also been introduced. For example, as long as you don't ask for leave every month, there will be a full attendance bonus, which does not exist in transportation companies.

More importantly, there is an overtime pay in an electrical appliance factory, and the overtime pay is higher than normal wages, which is unimaginable for ordinary state-owned enterprise employees.

State-owned enterprises and institutions work overtime, they have always been voluntary labor, how can there be such a thing as overtime pay!

However, Sister Zhang is not an ordinary employee of a state-owned enterprise. When she was in a garment factory, Li Weidong used overtime pay in order to speed up the production schedule, so Sister Zhang was not surprised.

Of course, Sister Zhang is only a temporary worker, and she is paid by piece rate. The more products you make, the more wages you will get. The militarized management of Puppy Electric Appliances and overtime pay are all unrelated to temporary workers like Sister Zhang.

The production of massage seats is much more complicated than the previous car seats. There are mechanical parts in the massage seats, brackets, and sponges. The workmanship must also be more meticulous.

It takes a lot of effort to make a qualified product.

Although a massage seat costs 50 cents, even a skilled garment worker like Sister Zhang would take half an hour to forty minutes to make a qualified product.

In this way, if you work eight hours a day, you can earn seven yuan, and sometimes you can only make six yuan or five if you move slowly. If you work six days a week, you can earn about 160 yuan a month, which is definitely lower than the average salary of state-owned enterprises.

Not just factories, all labor-intensive is like this, if you only work regular hours, the salary is definitely below average. If you want to get more salary, you have to work overtime and use more job market to pile up high salary.

For those takeaways and couriers who earn more than 10,000 a month, eight hours a day is definitely not enough, and they have to work more than 12 hours.

However, someone like Sister Zhang who also has to take care of her family cannot work eight hours a day.

In addition, the electrical appliance factory is located in Xiangyang Town, 20 kilometers away from the urban area. The bicycles are very fast, and the one-way trip takes nearly an hour.

From the perspective of today's people, an hour spent on work is not a big deal. After all, the transportation is developed now. It is better to drive by yourself or take public transportation. Some people even live in different places and take the high-speed rail to commute to get off work every day.

In the early 1990s, the transportation facilities were underdeveloped, and the security was not as good as it is now. As a lesbian, it took an hour to go to work, which was a huge commuting cost.

Therefore, people like Sister Zhang who live in the urban area and do not have motorized transportation can't commute to get off work according to the normal time. They basically arrive late in the morning and leave early in the afternoon, which compresses the working time even more. So you can earn 120 or 30 yuan a month.

However, for these laid-off workers who can only receive 80 yuan of basic living expenses, an extra 120 to 30 yuan per month can greatly relieve their living pressure. At least the food can be more abundant, and it can also be used when the seasons change. Buy new clothes.

...

It's time to pay the basic living expenses again.

Sister Zhang came to the accounting office of the transportation company early in the morning. She wanted to collect the money earlier, and then hurried to work in the electrical appliance factory.

No one is not active in receiving money, not to mention that these laid-off workers live on 80 yuan of basic living expenses every month. Many people even plan to receive the money to buy food directly, otherwise the family will be out of cooking. .

So even if Sister Zhang came very early, there were still many people who came earlier than her, and she had to wait in line.

After waiting in line for half an hour, it was finally Sister Zhang's turn to collect the money.

"Name? Unit." The accountant said in a cold tone.

"Zhang Jie, it turned out to be a garment factory." Sister Zhang said.

"Zhang Jie..." The accountant took out the form, checked it for a while, and said, "You're not on the list!"

"Without me?" Sister Zhang was stunned on the spot.

"Look again, how could it be without me!" Sister Zhang said.

The accountant read it again, then shook his head: "You're really not on the list. If you don't believe me, see for yourself."

The accountant handed the list of garment factories to Sister Zhang, who checked them one by one, but there was really no name on it.

"What's the matter? I received the money last month, why isn't I on the list this month?" Sister Zhang suddenly looked at a loss.

The accountant ignored Sister Zhang who was at a loss, and he said directly, "Next."

The people in the queue at the back immediately stepped forward, as if to squeeze Sister Zhang away.

It was at this moment that Sister Zhang suddenly realized that there were a few names on the list of the garment factory.

There used to be more than 200 workers in the garment factory. After the closure, about one-third of the workers found new jobs through various connections, and the remaining two-thirds were receiving basic living expenses, which is one hundred and seventy-eight. Well, on the list the accountant showed her, there were only less than fifty people.

Apparently, there are fewer people on the list.

So Sister Zhang immediately said: "Wait a minute! Your list is not complete! There are many people who are not on the list!"

The accountant continued to answer coldly: "I don't know. The list is given by the leader. I just pay according to the list. If you have any questions, go to the leader! Next!"

Since it was about 80 yuan, Sister Zhang couldn't bear to swallow her anger, so she immediately went to the director of the accounting department to ask the reason.

Seeing the director of accounting, Sister Zhang explained her intentions.

The director of accounting just nodded indifferently and said condescendingly: "I know everything you said. It is the decision of the company's leaders not to pay you basic living expenses."

"Why?" Sister Zhang asked immediately.

But the accounting director asked back, "Did you go to work in Li Weidong's electrical appliance factory?"

"Yes!" Sister Zhang nodded and said confidently; "Since the garment factory closed down, I have been unemployed for so many years, and the company has not arranged a job for me. Is it wrong for me to go out to find work!"

"Then did you get your salary from Li Weidong?" the accounting director asked again.

"This is not nonsense. If he doesn't give money, who will help him work!" Sister Zhang responded.

"That's where the problem lies." The chief accounting officer spread his hands and said; "The basic living allowances distributed by our company are to ensure the most basic life of unemployed workers.

Now that you can get your salary from elsewhere, that means that you have the ability to solve the basic living problems yourself. Naturally, there is no need to give you this basic living expenses! "

"Why! They are all unemployed employees of the company. Others are squatting at home and can receive money. When I go out to find work, I can't get any money. The more diligent people are, the more they suffer. That makes sense!" Sister Zhang said with a dissatisfied face.

"This is the decision of the company's leaders." The chief accounting officer spread his hands and said it had nothing to do with him.

"Which leader's decision, I'll go to him to have a theory!" Sister Zhang said immediately.

Although the accounting director pushed the matter to the leader, he did not dare to name the leader's specific name. If he really said that it was the decision of the leader of such and such, then Sister Zhang would go to the leader to make trouble, and he would also Follow the pot.

So the director of the accounting department said, "Which leader made the decision, it's not something that the director of me can know, it's the leader's decision anyway."

The accounting director was so rogue, Sister Zhang fell into silence.

The director of the accounting department went on to say: "Actually, if you want to lead the basic living expenses, it is very easy, just don't go to Li Weidong to work. As long as you don't work, you don't need to receive Li Weidong's salary, and then you will be paid. If you are not able to solve basic living problems, you will naturally be able to receive basic living expenses!

There is an old saying in China that you can't have both fish and bear's paw. You take the company's basic living expenses on one side, and go out to work for others to make money on the other side. This is definitely inappropriate! "

"Is it possible that I can only stay at home after receiving the 80 yuan from the company? Now, things are going up in price. What can I do with 80 yuan? I can't even buy rice and noodles! I'm not going to find something. Work hard, what will the whole family eat!" Sister Zhang immediately retorted.

"If you think 80 yuan is less, don't do it. The company didn't stop you from going to other places to make a lot of money!" The director of accounting continued with a rogue face; "Anyway, if you take the company's money, you can't give it to others. Work; go to work for others, don't take the company's money!"

...

If you work hard every day, you can earn one hundred and twenty-three dollars a month; if you squat at home every day, you can earn 80 yuan a month. You can only choose one of the two. This is a very difficult choice.

If Sister Zhang is full by herself and the whole family is not hungry, she will probably choose to squat at home for 80 yuan. If it is just one person, 80 yuan a month, although there is no quality of life, but it will not starve to death.

This is the case in many developed countries with high welfare in later generations. Many people would rather receive relief money and line up to get free relief food than go out to work.

Those who live to eat will probably envy this welfare system.

However, Sister Zhang still has a family to support. If she only has 80 yuan a month, she can still live, but her life is too humble and dignified.

The charity of others seems to be giving you something for nothing, and some people even feel complacent about it, feeling that they have taken a great advantage.

But in reality, when you accept alms, you are already paying with your dignity.

No matter what job you do, even if it is a very shameless job, as long as you use labor to make money to support yourself, you are at least living with dignity.

...

After a burst of hurried footsteps, there was a knock on the door, and Wang Jing walked in.

Wang Jing was born in a soldier, and his usual pace is the same as that of a soldier, with a sense of rhythm. Now this rapid pace shows that he is in an emergency.

So Li Weidong put down the documents at hand and asked, "Is something wrong in the factory?"

"Our factory is fine, but the new batch of garment factory workers that we recruited have an accident." Wang Jing told Li Weidong that he couldn't have both.

After listening to Wang Jing's narration, Li Weidong laughed instead: "This is a trick that idiot came up with!"

Wang Jing felt that Li Weidong was swearing, but the word "idiot" was a little too civilized, so he also began to curse, and all kinds of unpleasant national curses kept spewing out of Wang Jing's mouth.

Li Weidong sighed in embarrassment, and then said, "Pharaoh, I'm not scolding people, I mean that people who think of this trick are really stupid. They dare to do things like this, and they are not afraid of workers. Is there trouble?"

"These people have been leaders for a long time, and they have long been full of brain fat. How can ordinary workers live or die!" Wang Jing said with a look of disdain.

After Wang Jing was laid off that year, he also received basic living expenses for a period of time, and was finally kicked out of the house by his wife. As a victim, he naturally complained about the leaders of the transportation company.

Wang Jing's phrase "the brain is full of fat" suddenly reminded Li Weidong.

"In my last life, when I came back from working in Japan, Zhu Shicong and Wang Haibin's group were already shuanggui, and they entered the judicial process, and they were all sentenced in the end.

Later, I heard that someone reported that he bought a big villa in the United States and sent his grandson to the United States. People from the discipline inspection department came to investigate, and the results were accurate, and they even pulled out the radish and brought out the mud! The entire company leadership team went in. "

Thinking of this, Li Weidong immediately flipped through the pile of newspapers on the table.

After a while, Li Weidong took out a newspaper from not long ago.

"I found it!" Li Weidong sighed.

"Director, what did you find?" Wang Jing asked.

"Look at this news." Li Weidong handed the newspaper to Wang Jing.

Wang Jing turned to the newspaper and looked down. This was an unremarkable piece of news.

The headline of the news is: The Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the Supervision Department once again announced the whistleblower call.

Wang Jing understood in an instant, and he asked, "Director, are you going to report Zhu Shicong and the others to the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection?"

"Who said I'm going to report it?" Li Weidong laughed and continued; "Hundreds of employees have received 80 yuan less this month, and they should hate Zhu Shicong now!

Now the report call of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection is here, give them some hints and let them report Zhu Shicong, not to mention that they are all employees of the transportation company, and they have a better understanding of the company's situation. "

Wang Jing hesitated for a moment and said, "This is something that offends Zhu Shicong, I'm afraid they won't dare to do it!"

"Can't you make anonymous calls? Just find a public phone booth, and leave when you're done. Who knows who called!" Li Weidong said with a smile.

"But if you make an anonymous phone call, the discipline inspection department may not accept it!" Wang Jing continued.

"Everyone's mouth is full of money, and the bones are destroyed. As long as there are more people reporting, the discipline inspection department will definitely send people to investigate." Li Weidong replied.

"Reporting this kind of thing must have real evidence!" Wang Jing asked again.

Li Weidong showed a confident expression: "It's not easy to have real evidence, the comrades from the discipline inspection department will check it out!"
