Chapter 181: The Awakening of the Leader and the Madness of the World
President Xie felt like he was holding back his breath today, and his angry rebuke made all the directors under him tremble with fear.
However, Chu Yang strongly suspected that this guy was acting in front of President Chu. President Xie was angry, but in fact, it was not like that. He was extremely cold and indifferent. Moreover, if he really wanted to deal with the director, there was no need to go through so much trouble, which would make him lose his status.
So to sum up, this guy is most likely just acting out a sad story.
It is understandable. Life is like a play. Even if he is Mr. Xie, he is just a subordinate in front of Mr. Chu. After all, he is directly responsible for the business of the power supply station. With such a bad result, he has to give Mr. Chu an explanation.
Mr. Chu is the top leader, and he also has to give an account to the people above him.
Layer by layer, no one can escape anyone else. You will wonder why so many people are concerned about such a trivial matter.
There is no other way. Otherwise, nobility and dignity cannot be demonstrated.
Mr. Xie thought for a moment and spoke again: "The result is very sad. You should reflect on what caused this situation and how to reverse it. This must serve as a wake-up call for us."
He paused for five seconds again, and then said, "I won't say any more nonsense. President Chu is here today, and I will also do a self-examination. Such a ridiculous result must be due to my inadequate work as the deputy general manager. President Chu, please give us some instructions. Everyone applaud and welcome us."
President Xie nodded and gestured to President Chu, and the directors below quickly applauded.
He is good at nothing but applauding and flattering others.
President Chu had a stern face at first, and was quite serious, but as soon as President Xie mentioned him, his expression immediately brightened up. He stood up with his signature official smile, and then spoke kindly.
"Hello everyone. This afternoon, when Mr. Xie showed me the inspection data, to be honest, I was quite shocked. However, I was not surprised by your line loss rate, but I was surprised by how you usually make reports? Who made them? When did this fraud start?"
These three rhetorical questions made the atmosphere there suffocate.
President Chu's eyes sparkled, and he continued, "This incident also fully proves that none of the reports you made to me were true. I don't understand our situation at all. I am very sad. I don't even know if you have President Chu in your eyes, or if there are any rules and regulations."
Mr. Chu still spoke at his usual speed, and his cold expression showed a hint of regret than usual.
When Mr. Xie heard these words, his expression was a little ugly and the corner of his mouth twitched. It was obvious that these words were a bit of a hit on Mr. Xie. What Mr. Chu meant was that Mr. Xie did not take him seriously and he didn't even know the real data.
President Chu didn't dwell on it for too long, and immediately changed his tone, "But I know there must be other reasons for this matter. The company did encounter many force majeure factors this year, such as the continuous typhoons in Kawaguchi and the once-in-a-century heavy rains in Shakou, so the overall decline in line losses is normal."
Mr. Chu still has something. If the above sentence is a criticism, this one seems to be an excuse for Mr. Xie.
Use objective facts to exonerate Mr. Xie.
The leader’s way of speaking is indeed artistic.
He has to be rewarded for every blow he gets, after all, he still needs others to support him.
Many times, when the whole world is confused, being sober becomes a sin.
Now all the data from power supply stations are fake. It is useless to attack anyone. Even if you replace a group of people, the new ones will not be much better than them. These leaders are very clear about this.
Mr. Xie's face was indeed relieved a little.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Chu Yang seemed like an outsider, watching this group of people perform.
President Chu continued, "Actually, these false data are nothing. We have the real data in our hands and can digest it internally. The most important thing now is how we respond to the provincial company's inspection. If we follow this report, I don't think any of our power supply stations will be able to show. As far as I know, if the line loss rate of a power supply station is higher than 15%, President Xie and I will be deducted points, and we will have to go to the provincial company to explain. I don't have any requirements. You all know that I have been in the Butai Company for so many years and have never lost my temper. But if someone makes me lose face, I will definitely not let him off easily."
Damn, this last sentence of Mr. Chu made Chu Yang's understanding of him a little deeper. Don't think that this leader is just a paper tiger. If he really gets serious, the company will still be in turmoil.
It can be seen that Mr. Chu attaches great importance to this inspection.
This may be his last chance, because he knows that he is really going to move, and this is not groundless. The leaders above are evaluating his situation and considering his future, whether to retreat to the second line and take a sinecure, or go a step further and become a real leader.
This concerns his fate.
So how could he possibly sit still?
This inspection is also crucial, and it is a test for him by the provincial company leaders like a military parade.
This is indeed a bit disgusting. Every time the provincial company conducts an inspection, there will be rankings and various punishments. This also causes panic among the people below, and they have to take various improper means to change these things.
All the directors had never encountered a situation like Mr. Chu's, and they were all trembling with fear. Some of them even dared not raise their heads.
President Chu saw that it was almost done and continued, "This is no joke. The provincial company's inspection is serious. I came to this meeting today to actually get this matter done. We can't fight an unprepared battle. Chu Yang, you should have a good idea after this inspection. Tell me which power supply company on our side can possibly meet this standard."
President Chu turned his gaze towards Chu Yang again.
Chu Yang came to watch the show, but he didn't expect to be called out again. He frowned and replied with a guilty conscience: "Boss Chu, according to the results of this inspection, I don't think many of us can reach the 15% standard."
Chu Yang's words were already very tactful. Although the Ferry Office and the Zhaoyang Office barely reached the passing line, these were just data they made up on their own initiative.
Mr. Xie then added, "Mr. Chu, it's mainly because the weather this year is a bit abnormal. In fact, our ferry crossing was done very poorly by Zhaoyang Branch. The line loss rate is about 15%. I believe these two can do it well."
President Xie really couldn't sit still. After all, this was also his political achievement. If he could do it well, his chances of taking over President Chu's job would increase.
When President Chu heard this, he glanced at all the directors and immediately said, "Dukou and Zhaoyang, do you two directors have confidence? When the time comes and your two power supply stations are selected, can you win this honor for the company?"
The two directors were so frightened by these words that their faces turned pale, their bodies trembled, and they felt like they were about to faint.
Director Lan of the Ferry Station stood up and trembled as he answered, "Well, if we can bring honor to the company, it will definitely be our honor. However, our station has been around for decades. This line is relatively long, there are many people, and the management is a bit complicated. The data may still be slightly inaccurate. The provincial company's inspection standards are so high, and Zhaoyang Station is a new station with few equipment. I think we should be able to take on this important task."
When Director Zhou of Zhaoyang Institute saw Director Lan's words, he almost lost his temper and said quickly, "Director Lan, you are too modest. Our institute has only been established for more than a year, and many of our data are meaningless. Whether our employees have experience or not, we are definitely not comparable to your institute."
Mr. Xie's face grew darker as he listened, and he couldn't help but cough.
President Chu roughly understood what was going on: "President Xie, this inspection is indeed very important. I don't know much about business data. We still have more than ten days left. We can't waste this time. Many things can still be done. Everything depends on human effort. My goal is not just to pass the 15%, but to achieve within 12% and try to get into the top three. If we can't do it, then forget it. If we have to do it, we will do it well."
Damn, Mr. Chu is really tall. He’s so damn tall.
12%? I dare you to think so.
But Chu Yang knew that if he dared to think about it, he would be able to achieve it. This was the power of the words of great men.
Chu Yang was really dumbfounded. This guy looked steady, but he had a big appetite. He was even more awesome than President Xie. But think about it, when someone died in the substation, wasn’t it President Chu who was the first to shout “This person cannot die” after arriving at the scene?
No wonder he is the top leader. The top leader’s awareness is indeed higher than that of ordinary people, and his political acumen is beyond reach.
Although Mr. Xie understood the difficulty, and even had a few black lines on his forehead, he still answered with a stiff upper lip: "Okay, Mr. Chu, don't worry, I will personally check it and do it well."
President Chu finally smiled brightly: "Okay, President Xie, you've worked so hard, you guys continue chatting, I'll go first, I have a meeting at the city government."
Mr. Chu finally passed away peacefully.
President Xie looked at everyone, frowned and said, "You have heard what President Chu said just now. Please share your thoughts ."
No one spoke, and Chu Yang couldn't help but ask a question: "Boss Xie, now we don't know which power supply station the provincial company will randomly check. Boss Chu means 12%... If we want to do it for all of them, this is simply impossible."
Mr. Xie explained: "We can still control this. Generally, when provincial companies come for public inspections, it is customary to inspect the offices recommended by us. They don't want to see embarrassing data. However, we have to make preparations for both situations. At least we have to have two offices to show in case of any special situations. So, you will definitely not be able to escape from the Dukou Office and the Zhaoyang Office. You must make corrections immediately after returning."
So that’s how it is, so awesome.
Chu Yang seemed to understand something again.
No wonder everyone in the company dared to commit fraud so blatantly. It turns out that everyone from top to bottom is the same. It is completely rotten.
A false data.
Multiple parties benefit.
Why shouldn't others do the same?
Director Lan of the ferry station was going crazy. He was so timid that he had to speak: "Boss Xie, it's not that we don't want to do it. If we want to reduce line loss, we just need to reduce the wire diameter and increase the insulation area of the wire. It's not that we can't do it, but ~ that's ~"
"What is it? Say it clearly." Mr. Xie yelled.
Director Lan was extremely terrified, but he still said with great confidence: "This is actually just a matter of money and people."
Mr. Xie immediately replied: "After you go back, think carefully about how much money you want and how many people you need, write a note to me, and I will review and approve it. I only want one result, which is that the line loss rate is less than 12% during the inspection."
Director Lan was stunned. He didn't expect it to be so simple. He had submitted many reports before, requesting to rectify the lines, increase the line radius, and increase the number of transformers in the substation, but all of them fell on deaf ears or were rejected by the leaders, saying that the period of service was not enough.
Now what?
I approved it without even seeing other people’s proposals.
Chu Yang also had to sigh that some people's face was really more useful than many other things.
The world is crazy!!
