Chapter 675: Taking on a Mission in a Time of Crisis
Jiang Dahai never thought that such a good thing would happen to him.
Since his position was transferred from the Nandu General Factory to the bureau, Jiang Dahai went to a management office of the bureau.
The management office sounds good, but the department he works in is actually a miscellaneous office. There is not just one management office in the bureau. The popular ones include the enterprise management office, the industrial management office, etc. Although the office where Jiang Dahai works is also called a management office, the prefix is different, and they all do some logistics-like work.
In terms of rank, Jiang Dahai's rank did not change at all. Because his department was a small department, the director was still at the deputy director level. This was very disappointing for Jiang Dahai, who had thought he could make further progress.
There is a huge psychological gap from being the head of a company to being the head of an unpopular government office.
In Nandu, Jiang Dahai was in charge of more than 2,000 people, and controlled the personnel, finance, etc. of Nandu. But here, a small department has less than ten people in the entire office, and in addition to him as the director, there are four deputy directors, plus an office director and two deputy directors, and the remaining one is still a senior clerk.
To put it bluntly, this place is for people to live in their old age. Jiang Dahai knows this very well. He knows that his life has come to an end. What he has to do next is to endure one day at a time, slowly waiting for the moment of retirement.
I was not used to it at first, but people will adapt. After a few months, Jiang Dahai gradually got used to this boring commuting life.
On the surface, Jiang Dahai seemed to have accepted the reality, but sometimes in his heart he was thinking about his gains and losses at Nandu, and looking back at some of the problems he encountered while working at Nandu for many years.
After calming down, Jiang Dahai saw many things more clearly. During his many years in Nandu, he had done a lot of work that was beneficial to Nandu, but he had also done some foolish things at the same time.
For example, the latter was not united with his comrades. He and the factory director Gu Ping were at loggerheads over a minor conflict and fought each other for several years, which led to the development of Nandu coming to a standstill. In addition, Jiang Dahai also appointed people based on personal connections, such as appointing Shi Manlin as deputy factory director, which was also his mistake.
On the issue of a joint venture in a branch factory, Jiang Dahai failed to see the situation clearly and only made small moves for personal gain, which eventually shot himself in the foot...
These were all his fault. Jiang Dahai didn't take it seriously at the time, but now looking back and thinking about it, Jiang Dahai gradually came to his senses.
I don't blame anyone for my current situation, I should blame myself. Jiang Dahai wanted to see Gu Ping again, to see this old friend who had been his partner and rival for many years.
Of course, goodbye is not like the quarrel or tit-for-tat like before. Jiang Dahai has figured it out now. The fight between the two of them was meaningless. Now, looking back, their actions are no different from child's play. If there is a chance to meet again, Jiang Dahai just wants to laugh with Gu Ping and forget the grudges. Let's have a drink and let all the unpleasant things go with the wind.
Just when Jiang Dahai thought that his life was over, something suddenly broke his peaceful life.
As soon as he got to work that day, he received a call from his boss. After hanging up the phone, he quickly went to the boss's office.
When they arrived at the place, the leader asked Jiang Dahai about his work in a friendly manner. Jiang Dahai just thought that the leader was asking routine questions, so he immediately reported the current work of the department to the leader in detail. After listening, the leader praised Jiang Dahai a few words, and then asked Jiang Dahai about his views on the Xinyoumin Factory.
At this time, Jiang Dahai had not yet come to his senses and just thought that the leader was asking him some questions about the company. After all, Jiang Dahai had been the head of Nandu for so many years, and he was familiar with both the Youmin Factory and the Quanlin Factory.
They were all in the same system, and they were considered to be in the same industry. Jiang Dahai had some understanding of the situation of the two factories. Moreover, Jiang Dahai had heard about what happened in the Xinyoumin Factory these days. Although the department was not busy at ordinary times, it was well-informed. Jiang Dahai had heard a lot these days.
Since the leader asked, Jiang Dahai naturally spoke freely. He roughly talked about his views on Xinyoumin Factory, and pointed out what the primary problem of Xinyoumin Factory is, what the key things should be done first, and other suggestions.
As for the sensitive issue of the merger, Jiang Dahai did not mention nodded. When the leader asked Jiang Dahai what he planned to do if he took over Xinyoumin Factory, Jiang Dahai's head suddenly buzzed.
For a moment, Jiang Dahai was stunned and stared at his leader.
Seeing his reaction, the leader immediately smiled, patted Jiang Dahai on the shoulder and said, "Comrade Dahai, you are an old enterpriser and have worked in Nandu for so many years. Although you have been transferred to the bureau in the past two years, I think you still have your own way of running a business. Now Xinyoumin Factory is in need of people. As an old comrade and an excellent enterprise cadre, on behalf of the organization, I formally ask for your opinion today and ask for your view..."
The leader told Jiang Dahai that in view of the current situation of the Xinyoumin Factory, the superior leaders instructed that the person in charge of the factory be appointed as soon as possible. Jiang Dahai, as the former head of Nandu, has rich experience in the food industry and is a suitable candidate.
Now the organization is soliciting Jiang Dahai's opinion, hoping that he will go to Xinyoumin Factory to serve as the secretary and director, and take up the heavy responsibility of Xinyoumin Factory as soon as possible.
Of course, the new Youmin Factory was established on the basis of the original Youmin Factory and Quanlin Factory. In addition, due to the previous incident, the factory is currently in a state of chaos, and there are many problems left. If Jiang Dahai goes there, his first job will be to stabilize the situation, solve practical problems, and develop the enterprise, thus leading the newly established factory out of its predicament.
In addition, Jiang Dahai's rank is deputy director, while Xinyoumin Factory's rank is section chief. From this point of view, it is a bit unfair for Jiang Dahai to take up the position.
But the leader also assured Jiang Dahai that his previous rank would remain unchanged and he would still be a deputy director. At the same time, in view of the previous enterprise merger plan, after the new Youmin factory was run-in and the enterprise was on the right track, the relevant departments would reposition the administrative level of the new Youmin factory according to the previous plan. At that time, the new Youmin factory would be further upgraded from a regular section-level enterprise to a deputy director-level enterprise, which was the same as the original administrative level of Nandu.
As for Jiang Dahai's personal progress, the leader promised that as long as he made achievements, there would be no problem in promoting him to the rank of deputy director, so he could rest assured.
After hearing what his leader said, Jiang Dahai's heart was filled with shock. He never thought that his leader would actually like him and hand the company over to him.
Jiang Dahai thought about it for a moment and readily agreed to his leader's request. He told his leader that he was willing to work at Xinyoumin Factory and promised that he would be able to put Xinyoumin Factory on the right track and run the enterprise well.
Seeing Jiang Dahai's statement, the leader was very happy. He not only praised him a few words, but also said that if he had any difficulties in his work when he arrived at the company, he could come to him directly. Jiang Dahai immediately expressed his gratitude, and after chatting for a while about the follow-up arrangements in the leader's office, the leader personally sent Jiang Dahai out.
After leaving the leader's office and walking back to his own office, Jiang Dahai felt light under his feet and his face was filled with a radiance that had not been seen for many days.
A few days later, Jiang Dahai was given the task and was officially appointed as the secretary and director of Xinyoumin Factory.
On the day he took office, Jiang Dahai was personally sent to Xinyoumin Factory by the bureau's direct leader and the appointment was announced publicly to all the employees of the factory.
Sitting on the rostrum and looking at the cadres and staff below the stage, Jiang Dahai felt mixed emotions.
He had experienced this kind of scene countless times before, but he had never felt it again since he left Nandu. He originally thought that he would spend the last few years before retirement doing nothing with a newspaper and a cup of tea every day, but fate was so coincidental that Jiang Dahai himself did not expect such a change to happen.
Jiang Dahai was naturally familiar with this kind of situation and handled it with ease.
After the meeting and the official announcement of Jiang Dahai’s appointment, the leader left.
After the leader left, Jiang Dahai called a meeting of the previous three-person team and held a closed-door meeting to learn about the current situation of the factory in detail.
Although Jiang Dahai had inquired about some issues through other channels before taking office, he did not understand as clearly as they did.
After listening to the three people's respective talks on finance, supply and marketing, production, etc., Jiang Dahai frowned. The situation of Xinyoumin Factory was not optimistic, much worse than he had imagined.
Because of Xu Guochu and Jiang Youxing , the fortune that Zheng Guoyuan had worked so hard to accumulate when he was in office was almost wasted. Coupled with the changes within the factory, the surrounding market originally occupied had shrunk, and sales were not satisfactory.
In addition, the departure of Zheng Guoyuan, Liu De, Xiao Qiang and others led to a halt and regression in the work of the factory. Fortunately, Xu Guochu and Jiang Youxing were caught early. If they had continued to stay in the positions of factory leaders, it would not take long, and I am afraid that in half a year the entire factory would have become the same as the original Youmin Factory.
At present, the factory is very short of funds, and the beverage sales have entered the off-season. Previously, Xu Guochu and Zheng Guoyuan invested most of their limited funds in the so-called "welfare housing distribution" project, and the beverage production line still in the warehouse, which was bought at a high price and repaired at the same cost, is completely unusable and is no different from scrap metal.
In addition, their food and drink expenses outside were extremely shocking in the past few months, and now the factory still owes nearly 20,000 yuan in hospitality fees to the nearby state-owned restaurant. I don't know how these guys eat and drink. Jiang Dahai looked at the thick stack of receipts and his head was about to explode.
As the top leader, Jiang Dahai had to face the difficulties. He first formally appointed each of the three-person team to take charge of the previous work, and at the same time began to deal with the main problems in the factory.
In addition to restructuring the supply and marketing department and regaining the previously lost market, Jiang Dahai also rectified the production side and appointed the former workshop director of Quanlin Factory as deputy director of production.
Jiang Dahai also asked Lao Gu from the Finance Department to sort out the accounts, cooperate with the Supply and Marketing Department to collect the accounts as soon as possible, communicate with the raw material suppliers to negotiate the payment time limit, and try to reduce the financial pressure.
But even this was far from enough, and the financial pressure made Jiang Dahai breathless. In desperation, Jiang Dahai made two preparations after careful consideration. The first was to seek a bank loan, and the second was to stop the welfare housing distribution project and end the unfinished housing construction project ahead of schedule.
