Chapter 382: Funny but Can't Laugh
Mr. Meng wants to get something for nothing, but he is really overthinking it. Chu Yang will not give him this opportunity.
Of course, I also have a headache. Why is it so difficult to do something?
Now Mr. Yang would be fine if he could give him another 10 million.
But Yang Mingyang was also a stingy guy. Chu Yang thought about it and decided to wait for a while. After this year was over, he would apply to Director Li. He thought that the money would be allocated to him by then.
Sometimes more haste makes less speed.
This Friday, Mr. Liu actually came to Baichuan for inspection. This made Yang Mingyang extremely nervous and he called everyone back in the early morning to discuss the reception arrangements.
If only work could be this serious.
At the meeting, General Manager Yang repeatedly emphasized that everyone must be well prepared and must not let Director Liu feel uncomfortable. He also asked Chu Yang and General Manager Guo to prepare the report on the main network and distribution network.
Damn it, what is there to report? I can't do anything. Chu Yang had a ruthless idea. Maybe he could just make a fuss and let everyone fight. You won't give me money, right?
Around ten-thirty in the morning.
A black Audi surrounded by several Toyotas slowly arrived at the entrance of Baichuan City Company.
It was Mr. Liu's car No. 2. The car stopped at the gate. Mr. Liu, wearing a navy blue top hat and a black windbreaker, came out slowly. If you didn't know, you would have thought it was Xu Wenqiang. His aura was terrifying.
Several ministers and commissioners followed behind.
Yang Mingyang approached like a pug and called out affectionately, "Hello, Mr. Liu. Mr. Li, you've worked hard along the way."
Chu Yang always felt that this statement was awkward.
Director Liu stopped and glanced at Yang Mingyang. He just nodded to him, but he seemed to have noticed Chu Yang and immediately said, "Isn't this Chu Yang? Long time no see."
Chu Yang could only quickly shake hands with him: "Hello, Mr. Liu."
Director Liu smiled and said, "Yang Mingyang, Comrade Chu Yang is an elite of our company and a favorite of Director Li. It is a blessing for you to be trained in your Baichuan Company."
Yang Mingyang replied: "Yes, after Comrade Chu Yang came, we changed from being decadent to thriving. It is no exaggeration to say that he is our savior."
Chu Yang smiled awkwardly, feeling unhappy. He had been in Baichuan for three or four months but hadn't accomplished anything. Wasn't this a mockery of himself?
Mr. Liu nodded and smiled, then continued walking forward with his head held high and entered the company's building. The waiters inside had already prepared some top-quality Maojian tea.
Everyone sat down in the conference room.
Mr. Liu took a sip of tea and said, "Not bad! This Baichuan tea is the best I have ever tasted. It is sweet and delicious, with an endless aftertaste." Chu Yang also took a sip and found it to be different from usual.
Yang Mingyang replied proudly: "Boss Liu, I knew you were coming to inspect, so I asked someone to borrow some natural dew water from Lingquan Mountain at 3 a.m. today. This water is perfect for making tea."
Chu Yang was really shocked. This guy was really capable.
Director Liu took another sip and said with a smile, "Boss Yang is a very particular person. I am not that particular. In the provincial company, everyone knows that I am a rough man. Our comrade Chu Yang is a well-known elegant person. He always goes to the staff home to read books at noon."
Chu Yang didn't expect that he would bring the topic to himself, and replied: "Mr. Liu is too modest. To be honest, I have been in Baichuan for such a long time, and it is only because of you, Mr. Liu, that I can drink such good tea."
I work in a provincial company, and I really like to go to the staff home to read books at noon. It is quiet and comfortable. Of course, part of the reason is also because of Fan Qisi. She will also be there.
Director Liu didn't know what his expression was. He took another sip of tea and said, "Now that we have tasted the tea, let's get down to business. I came here this time to inspect the basic development of the main distribution network in each city. Who of you will make a report first?"
Yang Mingyang looked at Chu Yang and Guo Shichao and said, "Director Liu, Comrade Guo Shichao is in charge of the main network, and Comrade Chu Yang is in charge of the distribution network. Let them report to you, and I will add more later."
Guo Shichao was well prepared. He took out a manuscript, stood up, and recited in a clear and melodious voice: "In the past few years, under the leadership of President Liu, the company has achieved significant results and made rapid progress in all aspects..."
This report, a 5,000-word essay, was very well written and painted a grand blueprint without any flaws. It seemed that the company was already invincible.
But after listening to it, if you think about it carefully, it seems like it said nothing, without any specific data. This is the cleverness of these people, they speak in a high-sounding way.
After listening to it, Mr. Liu smiled and said, "Not bad. The last time I came, your main network was terrible. I am pleased that you have achieved this result. Don't be proud. You should summarize this as the experience of [Baichuan] and promote it."
Yang Mingyang smiled happily and said:
Chu Yang was laughing in his heart. This was just self-deception. It was really ridiculous to promote this product. However, Chu Yang also knew that this thing was just a packaging.
Why can Liu Jun become a model worker?
In the past, things were even more outrageous. They did nothing but shouted out a slogan and claimed it as advanced experience. Anyway, whether it is advanced experience or not does not depend on how well you do it, but on whether you can package and promote it.
Mr. Liu added, "The main network is developing so well, how is the distribution network? It can't lag behind, right? Comrade Chu Yang, please tell us about it."
Everyone looked at Chu Yang, especially Yang Mingyang, who gave him some encouragement.
Chu Yang stood up slowly, still struggling with how to make this report. He actually had two drafts of the data in his hand, one was to fool the higher-ups, and the other was the real data that he had asked his subordinates to find out.
Chu Yang took a deep breath, looked at everyone, and finally slowly pulled out the real data and said, "Director Liu, the situation on the distribution network may not be as optimistic as the main network. Compared with the main network, it can be said to be terrible."
Chu Yang didn't intend to hide it anymore. If you don't want to be decent, I will make sure you can't be decent today. Just throw the jar into the ground.
When these words came out, Yang Mingyang was shocked and his face turned pale. He immediately said, "Boss Chu, I'm just reporting on my work. Don't exaggerate."
Director Liu narrowed his eyes and laughed: "Haha, how horrible is it? Tell me about it."
Chu Yang ignored Yang Mingyang's winking and put the real data on the table: "Boss Liu, this is the real data I found after I came to Baichuan. Line loss remains high, voltage supply is insufficient in many power supply stations, power outages are long, and the rate of public complaints is the highest in the province. Anyway, it's a mess."
After hearing this, Director Liu looked at Yang Mingyang and asked reprimandingly, "Is that true? Is it really that serious?"
Yang Mingyang was sweating profusely and hesitantly said, "Boss Chu just came here, so the data he has may not be comprehensive. He may have just heard rumors and believed them. In fact, it's not that serious."
Chu Yang retorted: "Boss Yang, we should seek truth from facts. The real situation may be even worse. Mr. Liu is here today. We can apply for some funds from him to transform the distribution network..."
When Director Liu heard this, he was not angry. Instead, he smiled and said, "Chu Yang, I understand. You are exaggerating on purpose. If you say it is so bad, you want me to allocate funds. You are smart."
Yang Mingyang also smiled with relief: "Haha, I said that Director Liu is smart. Chu Yang, this trick of yours is useless."
Haahaha, hahahaha, everyone else laughed too.
Chu Yang didn’t know why he found it so funny… but he couldn’t laugh.
