Chapter 1042 Anger
Lao Tang has retired.
Lao Tang was originally the head of the Labor and Personnel Section of the Nandu General Factory. Later, after Si Te was established, Lao Tang had a talk with Jiang Dahai. At that time, Jiang Dahai was about to leave Si Te. As an old subordinate of Jiang Dahai, Lao Tang knew that his life would be difficult after Jiang Dahai left, because he was not only Jiang Dahai's right-hand man, but also occupied such an important position in the Labor and Personnel Section.
A new emperor appoints his own ministers. When Jiang Dahai leaves, his followers will forget him. It is certain that Lao Tang will be sidelined in the future. Maybe the new leader will even make things difficult for him and pick on him.
Instead of waiting to be bullied, it is better to find a way out in advance. If Jiang Dahai had the ability to take Lao Tang away back then, Lao Tang would definitely go with him given the friendship between them.
It's a pity that Jiang Dahai went to the bureau. Although he was promoted half a level, he was sitting on the bench. It was impossible for him to bring people there. After thinking about it, Lao Tang could only rely on Song Yuanchao. After all, when they were in Nandu, Lao Tang had a good relationship with Song Chaoyuan, and he helped Song Chaoyuan a lot in many things.
Jiang Dahai understood Lao Tang's idea. He was not an unreasonable person. Besides, Lao Tang's position would be awkward if he left. So, after Jiang Dahai agreed, Lao Tang contacted Song Chaoyuan and expressed his willingness to go to Si Te from Nandu.
Lao Tang's judgment was correct. Song Chaoyuan was a kind-hearted man and remembered his kindness. He not only readily agreed to Lao Tang's request, but also transferred Lao Tang from Nandu to the newly established Site, and also retained Lao Tang's administrative level in the Nandu state-owned enterprise.
In addition, Song Chaoyuan also appointed Lao Tang as the assistant to the chairman and director of the chairman's office , in charge of personnel and administrative work. The latter was nominally under Annie's authority, but after Lao Tang arrived at Sit, he was responsible for all basic work.
As an old employee, Lao Tang did an excellent job at Si Te. He was very capable and good at handling complicated personnel and administrative work. When Song Chaoyuan was the chairman, he did the job of the chairman's chief steward and managed everything in order.
When Song Chaoyuan stepped down as chairman for the first time, Lao Tang had already taken on the title of vice president. A few years ago, when Zheng Guoyuan served as chairman and general manager, Lao Tang was still a top-ranking vice president with a high status in the company and was highly valued.
Lao Tang is two years older than Zheng Guoyuan. He retired a year and a half before Zheng Guoyuan retired.
After retiring, Song Chaoyuan sought Zheng Guoyuan's opinion and specially gave Lao Tang the title of company consultant. Although this title no longer directly involves the management of the company, it still has supervisory authority. At the same time, Song Yuanchao made this arrangement to give Lao Tang an extra salary after retirement as a benefit for old friends and old partners.
Lao Tang lived a carefree life in retirement. He had a high income during those years at Si Te, and after the company was restructured into a joint-stock company, Lao Tang also owned shares in the company. With these shares, he had wealth that an ordinary person could never earn in a lifetime.
His children are all grown up and have started their own families, and there is even a third generation.
He and his wife are not short of money and are in good health. After retirement, they often go out to travel and enjoy the scenery. They also developed a hobby of taking photos. I heard that they are now members of the Jinling Photography Association.
Today, Lao Tang did not go to the association as usual, nor did he go fishing or anything like that. Instead, he left home early in the morning and drove to Song Chaoyuan's place.
"Mr. Song!"
"Old Tang is here, come in!" Song Chaoyuan was very happy to see Old Tang. He hadn't seen him for several years and invited him into the house.
The tea was ready. Before Lao Tang arrived, Song Chaoyuan was sitting and drinking tea. He invited Lao Tang to sit down. Song Chaoyuan made him a cup of tea and then placed the teacup in front of him.
"Have some tea first."
"Thank you, Mr. Song..." Old Tang nodded and thanked him, but did not immediately take the cup of tea. Instead, he said to Song Chaoyuan with guilt: "Mr. Song, I came here today to admit my mistakes. I did not do a good job of supervising the company's situation. After you called me yesterday, I immediately checked. The feedback I received made me really not know how to explain it to you..."
Song Chaoyuan's heart sank, but his facial expression looked normal. He said calmly, "You don't need to apologize. You are just a decoration as a consultant. The so-called supervisory work is just a reason to set up consultants. I know this very well. Besides, you have been retired for several years. It would be annoying if you intervene in the company's affairs again. So I can understand your thoughts."
Song Chaoyuan said this, and Old Tang felt even more ashamed. He shook his head and said, "Mr. Song, although that's true, I really feel sorry for you. And Xiao Han, who took over my position, was recommended by me back then. I didn't expect that after just a few years, something like this would happen. I really can't explain it to you."
Lao Tang said this, and he also thought so in his heart. Vice President Han was Lao Tang's subordinate in the past, and he was also a young man that Lao Tang favored. Lao Tang began to train Vice President Han many years ago. Before he retired, Vice President Han had already reached the level of director and was Lao Tang's right-hand man.
When Lao Tang retired, Zheng Guoyuan and Song Chaoyuan asked for his opinion, and Lao Tang recommended then-Director Han as his successor. After investigation, Zheng Guoyuan and Song Chaoyuan respected Lao Tang's suggestion and agreed to Lao Tang's recommendation, so Director Han became Deputy General Manager Han and took over Lao Tang's position.
But I didn't expect that such a thing would happen within Si Te in just a few years. Although Vice President Han is in charge of personnel and administration and does not interfere much in the company's specific business, after all, as the company's vice president, there are some things that he cannot avoid.
Song Chaoyuan called Lao Tang yesterday and asked about the situation inside Si Te, and mentioned what the young man told him when he was repairing the car. Lao Tang was also surprised when he heard about it, because he had never heard of this matter, and in his opinion, as the vice president promoted by himself, Han should be very reliable, and if there was such a thing, he would definitely report it to him privately.
But now Lao Tang has never received such a report, which makes Lao Tang somewhat suspicious of Song Chaoyuan's source of information. But thinking carefully, he has followed Song Chaoyuan for so many years and knows that Song Chaoyuan is a person who never makes a move without a purpose. Now that Song Chaoyuan has asked about this matter, it is different.
On the phone, Lao Tang told Song Chaoyuan that he was not very clear, but he would immediately verify and report to Song Chaoyuan. After hanging up the phone, Lao Tang subconsciously wanted to call Vice President Han to ask him what was going on, but before he dialed the number, Lao Tang hung up the phone. After thinking about it, he changed the number and called another subordinate who was in Si Te.
This subordinate was a supervisor in the administrative department of Sit, and his rank was not high, not even a middle-level manager in the headquarters. However, Lao Tang thought this person was relatively reliable and trustworthy. When he called him, the other party was very surprised and very happy, and kept asking how the old leader was on the phone.
After chatting for a while, Lao Tang asked about the recent situation of the other party's company, and directly mentioned the issues mentioned by Song Chaoyuan. When Lao Tang asked the question, the other party was silent for a while, and after a while asked Lao Tang where he knew these things.
Lao Tang told the other party not to ask how he knew, but to ask him to answer whether such a thing happened and what exactly happened. After Lao Tang's questioning, the other party sighed and told Lao Tang that these things did happen, and the current situation was more serious than Lao Tang said. After Zheng Guoyuan retired, the new company leader was fine at the beginning, and Xiao Gui Cao Sui followed the rules step by step, but the situation gradually changed more than a year ago.
First, the company's internal middle-level managers underwent several adjustments, and a large number of people with connections entered the company at once. These people squeezed some capable middle-level managers into the bench and gradually took control of many departments of the company.
Then, the company's culture began to change. The pragmatic spirit of Song Chaoyuan and Zheng Guoyuan was replaced by empty talk and formalism, which has become more and more serious in the past six months. Several new middle-level managers, including the middle and senior managers at the director level hired not long ago, are doing something every day. There are more and more company meetings, but fewer and fewer people doing practical work. In addition, some flashy documents have been issued, which have made many old employees of the company extremely dissatisfied in private.
In addition, there is the issue of product formula mentioned by Song Chaoyuan. This issue is not only in the instant noodle business unit, but also in the beverage business unit. Or it can be said that this is the opinion formed by the headquarters of Sit. Although there were some people who opposed this proposal, the general manager and those people insisted that the opponents were useless and the proposal was finally passed.
Hearing this, Lao Tang was extremely shocked. He had never expected such a thing to happen. He immediately asked why he didn't know about the proposal from the Sit headquarters? Shouldn't such a major event be reported to Shenghua headquarters for approval?
The other party told Lao Tang that he had no idea whether the proposal was reported or not due to his level, but the fact was that the proposal was passed. As for how the Sit headquarters handled the matter, Lao Tang had to find the answer himself. After all, he was just a small administrative supervisor, and it was impossible for anyone to tell him many higher-level news.
After hanging up the phone, Lao Tang's face looked extremely ugly, and he was extremely angry in his heart.
He didn't even know about such a big thing. What's more terrifying is that even Song Chaoyuan didn't know about it and only found out about it by accident.
This is really amazing. When did Si Te become like this? You know, it was not easy for them to establish Si Te and then develop it to its current size. Now, these people who followed the Song Dynasty to conquer the world are still alive. They have only retired for a short time, and Si Te has changed like this? It is simply unimaginable.
Song Yuanchao's face was gloomy. After listening to Lao Tang's story, how could Song Chaoyuan sit still? How long had he let go? The company was in such a mess? And Zheng Guoyuan, didn't he promise him solemnly that he could trust the general manager now? Trust him! What the hell did he want to do when he made such a mistake and Song Chaoyuan didn't even know about it?
An independent kingdom? A rebellion? Song Chaoyuan was so angry that he slapped the table, and the veins on his forehead throbbed .
