Rebirth of the Industrial Tycoon

After sending away these old subordinates who complained repeatedly, Zhang Tao also sighed deeply.

"These guys have been too pampered in recent years. The bonuses are not less every year. After all, this year is a special situation, so what if there is a year less bonus! And even if there is no bonus, you can't starve to death with your salary! "

Zhang Tao murmured to himself and continued; "What's more, donating materials to the front line of flood relief is a good thing that benefits the country and the people. There's nothing to complain about! But this is not an opportunity for me!"

Zhang Tao's vision is much longer-term. What he cares about is not this year's year-end bonus, but his future status in Fukang Engineering.

Not long ago, Li Weidong poached Yue Ping An and parachuted directly to Fukang Agricultural Machinery as general manager, becoming the top leader of Fukang Agricultural Machinery.

Fukang Agricultural Machinery and Fukang Engineering are both in the industrial park, and the two factories are next to each other. Therefore, the news that Yue An'an was appointed as the general manager of Fukang Agricultural Machinery was immediately known to Zhang Tao.

The arrival of Yue Ping An instantly alerted Zhang Tao. After asking around, he found out that Yue Ping An not only had experience in leadership positions in large state-owned enterprises, but also had served in ministries and commissions. Both qualifications and abilities are top-notch.

Such talents, parachuted into any private enterprise, are qualified to become enterprise leaders.

Since Li Weidong can find a Yue An'an to be the top leader of Fukang Agricultural Machinery, then Li Weidong can also find a second Yue An'an to parachute to Fukang Engineering to take his place.

A strong sense of crisis arose in Zhang Tao's heart. Zhang Tao feels that his position is likely to be replaced by others.

So Zhang Tao planned to do something to keep his position as general manager. At least, he would let Li Weidong know that without him, Fukang Engineering would not be able to operate normally.

Zhang Tao's bargaining chips are his old subordinates. After the loader factory was transformed into Fukang Engineering, the company's management team remained the same without much change, and now they all hold important positions.

But Li Weidong is the boss after all. If Zhang Tao wants to rebel, he must have a suitable opportunity.

This time, Li Weidong donated 100 construction machinery to the front line of flood fighting, which caused the year-end bonus to be greatly reduced or even canceled directly, which brought an opportunity to Zhang Tao.

Donating money and materials to the front line of fighting floods is certainly a righteous act, but the year-end bonus is related to every employee's pocket. Not everyone is so great and willing to contribute generously.

It's one thing to talk about donating money, but it's another thing to actually do it. People who say they are willing to donate hundreds of millions certainly don’t have hundreds of millions. When it comes time to donate, they will feel bad if they are asked to pay 100 yuan.

Old subordinates came to Zhang Tao to complain about the year-end bonus, which immediately made Zhang Tao realize that "people's support can be used."

So Zhang Tao took advantage of the situation, claiming that everyone should unite for the year-end bonus, but in fact he wanted to take this opportunity to force Li Weidong into a palace.

In the conference room of Fukang Engineering, Li Weidong's face was ashen.

"Only half of last month's production tasks were completed, which has delayed our delivery to customers. What's going on?" Li Weidong asked sharply.

"What kind of goods are we delivering to customers? We just donate them!" someone muttered in a low voice.

The man who spoke was in his fifties, the director of the Quality Control Department of Beverly Engineering, and the oldest person in the management. Probably because he felt that because of his seniority, young people had to give way to him, so he relied on his seniority to show off his seniority.

Although the muttering was small, Li Weidong heard it. His face darkened and he asked, "Minister Liu, it seems you know why only half of the production tasks last month were completed?"

"I am in charge of quality management and quality inspection. Production matters are not my responsibility!" Minister Liu continued to put on an expression of relying on his elders.

"Not under your control? That's easy to say!" Li Weidong snorted coldly, and then said: "More than 60% of the workshop's production tasks were completed last month, but only 50% of the final products were shipped, which means that more than 10% of them were , are they all stuck at your quality inspection?"

"Chairman, our work progress is a little slow, but slow work yields fine work! In order to ensure that the quality of the products leaving the factory is up to standard, there is nothing we can do."

Manager Liu continued calmly: "Chairman, if you think we are moving too slowly, I will ask someone to speed up the work when I get back. However, I cannot guarantee whether the quality inspection of the products can be as detailed as it is now." ”

Li Weidong frowned slightly. He felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere of today's meeting.

Minister Liu is older and more senior, but he would never dare to contradict himself in meetings on weekdays. But now he behaves like this, obviously there is another reason.

Li Weidong suppressed his doubts for the time being and said, "I'll talk about your quality inspection issues later. Let's talk about the workshop first. Why has only more than 60% of the production tasks been completed? Minister Sun, do you have any explanation?"

The person directly responsible for the production in the workshop is the Production Management Department. The director's surname is Sun. He worked his way up to this position from the frontline workers in the workshop.

When asked by Li Weidong by name, Minister Sun did not panic. He had already found an excuse. Just listen to him say; "The production task was not completed last month, mainly due to the supply of raw materials.

Chairman, there is a saying that a clever woman cannot make a meal without rice. If the supply of raw materials cannot keep up, I will not be able to complete the production task even if I have seventy-two tricks! "

"What's the problem with the supply of raw materials?" Li Weidong asked immediately.

"Banana water." Minister Sun then added: "It's Tianna water."

Tinna water is also called banana water because it has a strong rubber smell. This liquid is five-color, transparent, easily volatile, slightly soluble in water, and soluble in various organic solvents.

Banana water contains toluene, butyl acetate, cyclohexanone, isoamyl acetate and other ingredients. It is a flammable liquid, and when its vapor is mixed with air, it will explode when exposed to open flames and high heat, so it is also a dangerous chemical.

In mechanical production, banana water is often used as a volume and thinner for spray paint.

Li Weidong immediately looked at Minister Hu from the purchasing department and asked, "Minister Hu, is it true that Minister Sun said that the supply of banana water is insufficient?"

Minister Hu nodded: "Chairman, after all, this banana water is a flammable and explosive dangerous product. In order to avoid safety accidents, we never purchase it in large quantities, nor do we store a lot in the factory."

"Even if the factory doesn't store a large amount of such dangerous goods, don't you know how to purchase them in time?" Li Weidong snorted coldly.

"The procurement of such flammable and explosive dangerous goods is relatively strict. The procurement process requires a lot of approvals, and the whole process will be very time-consuming. And transportation is also a problem..." Minister Hu explained.

"It wasn't strict before? There was no approval before? Transportation wasn't a problem before? Why didn't this happen before, but now it does?" Li Weidong interrupted Minister Hu.

Minister Hu immediately replied: "In the past, our factory's regulatory requirements in this area were relatively lax, but now the requirements are stricter, so there are more procedures, which will affect the purchase of banana water."

Minister Hu paused and then said, "Chairman, I have to report to you on this aspect. Last month, the Safety Production Department formulated new safety production regulations. There are also regulations on the procurement, storage and management of dangerous goods. We have adopted stricter regulations. Our purchasing department also implements them in accordance with the company’s regulations.”

This time, before Li Weidong took the initiative to ask, the person in charge of production safety replied: "Chairman, as you said before, production safety must be given top priority, and there must be no carelessness.

Our department also deeply implements your instructions, treats production safety as an equally important matter, and has formulated strict rules and regulations to ensure that no accidents occur during the production process.

Of course, if the chairman feels that the safety production system we have formulated is inappropriate, then we will immediately cancel it and restore it to the previous situation.

But if we do that, if an accident occurs, we hope that the chairman and the company will not hold our production safety department responsible. "

Li Weidong smiled coldly. He had realized that this group of people was just playing ball!

Quality inspection kicked the ball to production, production kicked the ball to procurement, and procurement kicked the ball to the safety supervisor. The safety supervisor finally kicked the ball to the head of the chairman of the board.

"These people must have discussed it in advance!" Li Weidong had already seen the clues.

Li Weidong secretly glanced at Zhang Tao next to him, who was drinking tea as if it had nothing to do with him, as if he didn't want to wade into this muddy water.

The more Zhang Tao behaves like this, Li Weidong is certain that Zhang Tao must be giving instructions behind this.

Li Weidong is busy on weekdays and does not spend much time at Fukang Engineering. On the contrary, Zhang Tao, as the general manager, has been in charge of Fukang Engineering all year round. How could Zhang Tao not know about the big and small things in the factory?

What's more, most of the management staff are Zhang Tao's old subordinates. If something happens, how could they not report it to Zhang Tao?

Now Zhang Tao didn't say a word, just sat there honestly. This behavior was too deliberate.

Now that he has realized that the root cause lies with Zhang Tao, Li Weidong is too lazy to talk nonsense to others.

Li Weidong looked at his watch and then said, "I have a meeting to hold next, so let's end the discussion today and let's break up the meeting first!"

Then Li Weidong looked at Zhang Tao and said, "Mr. Zhang, please wait a moment."

Everyone left the conference room, and even the secretary responsible for taking meeting minutes was sent away by Li Weidong. Only Li Weidong and Zhang Tao were left in the conference room.

I just heard Li Weidong ask; "Old Zhang, this meeting is being held today, which really surprises me!"

"Chairman, I usually fail to take care of these people, and the responsibility lies with me. If you want to criticize, then criticize me!" Zhang Tao seemed to be admitting his mistake, but his tone was unapologetic.

"Lao Zhang, did you understand something and didn't tell me?" Li Weidong asked with a smile.

"Chairman, actually, recently, the employees in the factory have had some opinions, and some of them have reached my ears, so I have indeed heard a little bit."

Zhang Tao picked up the tea cup, took another sip of tea, and continued: "Some time ago, didn't our factory donate a hundred construction machinery to the front line of flood fighting? Of course, I support flood fighting and disaster relief. I definitely agree with it, but other people may not Think so!

These one hundred pieces of construction machinery are worth tens of millions, which is equivalent to a loss of tens of millions in the company's revenue this year, so the employees are worried that this year's year-end bonus may be in vain.

Bonus matters are related to everyone's vital interests. There is no year-end bonus this year, so everyone will inevitably have some opinions, so at work, there will also be a feeling of inactivity. "

"Being passive and sabotaging work? I think they are uniting to force me to marry!" Li Weidong thought to himself.

Then Li Weidong asked, "Lao Zhang, how do you think this matter should be handled?"

"What everyone is worried about is nothing more than the issue of year-end bonuses. I think as long as the year-end bonuses can be distributed normally, the problem will naturally be solved." Zhang Tao answered.

"Is it that simple? Can it really solve the problem?" Li Weidong asked.

Zhang Tao nodded: "Employees work hard just to support their families. If the year-end bonus continues, and if anyone dares to be disobedient and continues to be passive and slow at work, I, Zhang Tao, will be the first to kick his ass!"

Li Weidong smiled coldly, when the production tasks were not completed, why didn't I see you, Zhang Tao, kicking someone's butt?

During the meeting just now, a group of people were clearly playing football. Why didn't I see you, Zhang Tao, kicking someone's butt?

Zhang Tao continued: "Chairman, don't worry, these bastards were following me back then, and I'm very familiar with their plans. As long as the year-end bonuses are issued, I can guarantee that they will all be honest and honest." People cause trouble again!”

After hearing this, Li Weidong's anger became even stronger.

Are you telling me that the entire management team of Fukang Engineering is all your people, Zhang Tao, and Fukang Engineering cannot operate without you?

Li Weidong could even guess that if he agreed to pay the year-end bonus, then Zhang Tao would turn around and tell his old subordinates that it was Zhang Tao who had finally won the year-end bonus.

"You have been a good person on both sides, but I have become a bad person!" Li Weidong thought to himself.

After thinking for a moment, Li Weidong did not camp immediately, but said: "The year-end bonus is a large sum of money after all. Let me think about this matter carefully."

After Zhang Tao left, Li Weidong sat alone in the conference room and dialed a phone number, but the other party hung up the phone.

After a while, Li Weidong's cell phone rang, which was the number he had dialed just now.

"Is it easier to talk now? What's going on?" Li Weidong asked.

"Some time ago, some cadres in the factory were worried that there would be no year-end bonus this year, so they went to see Zhang Tao. Zhang Tao came up with the idea of ​​finding excuses to slow down production, and then using this as a condition to negotiate with you."

The man paused and then said, "If you don't compromise, the production tasks for next month will continue to decrease. Anyway, they have plenty of excuses!"

"Besides, does Zhang Tao have any other actions?" Li Weidong asked next.

"Some time ago, he often talked to several cadres in the factory. I gave him the opportunity to pour tea and water. It was nothing more than reminiscing about old times and talking about previous friendships. He didn't even talk about business matters." The other party said. replied.

"When exactly?" Li Weidong asked again.

"It must have been several months ago, probably after the leadership team at Fukang Agricultural Machinery was adjusted!" the man replied.

"So that's it!" Li Weidong understood instantly. Zhang Tao was worried that he would also be replaced and his position as general manager was not guaranteed, so he took the opportunity to force him to go to the palace.

"Zhang Tao, help me keep an eye on it." After a few instructions, Li Weidong hung up the phone.

Li Weidong has bought Fukang Engineering for some years. Of course, it is impossible for him to have no control over the company and let Zhang Tao dominate.

In many departments, Li Weidong has secretly placed his cronies, but these people are not high-level and have not yet reached management level.

The person who had just spoken to Li Weidong was Zhang Tao's secretary. He had already been bribed by Li Weidong and became an Infernal Affairs agent placed beside Zhang Tao.

Faced with the pressure from the management headed by Zhang Tao, Li Weidong certainly could not compromise.

If you compromise on this kind of thing once, there will be endless troubles. In the future, similar forced abortions will be endless.

This time I asked for a year-end bonus, the next time I asked for a salary increase, and the next time I asked for a vacation. No matter how big the family business is, it cannot withstand such a torment!

What's more, Zhang Tao has formed his own small circle and begun to challenge Li Weidong's authority.

If you, a wage earner, dare to rebel and force your boss, how can your boss tolerate it?

Li Weidong sighed: "It seems that the entire management team of Fukang Engineering cannot be retained!"

No pop-ups, timely updates!
