Chapter 20 Lack of tires

Li Weidong knew that the transportation company before 1986 was very short of tires.

After several years of reform and opening up, there is no longer a shortage of food and cloth, but the supply of industrial products is still scarce on the whole. For example, tires are scarce materials, and money can't buy them.

At that time, there was no policy of annual inspection and mandatory scrapping of automobiles, as long as the vehicles were properly maintained, a car could be used for 20 years, the old liberation produced in the 60s, and there was absolutely no problem in driving to the 80s.

However, it is impossible to use the tires of a car for 20 years, and the tires are always worn out when the car pulls goods all day long. Moreover, rubber products such as tires, even if they are not used there, will begin to decay after six years, and they will not be able to be used if the attenuation is severe.

So for transportation companies, tires are a must-have consumable.

However, after entering the 80s, China's economy gradually became active, and the business volume of the transportation industry began to increase exponentially.

Therefore, in a short period of time, there was a shortage of tires. For transportation companies, the supply of planned tires is insufficient, and the car can only lie at home, which will not bring economic benefits, so they can only buy tires from the plan.

The same is true for the Qinghe regional transportation company, which ran out of planned tires for more than half of the time, and had to rely on purchasing unplanned tires to keep the vehicles running.

Li Weidong has the impression that at the end of '84, the lack of tires in the Qinghe Transportation Company was already very serious. Some routes with bad road conditions should simply not be picked up, so as not to consume tires in the transition.

When you get out of the car, you should try to form a large team, and then bring less spare tires. For example, five cars at a time, these five cars only have one spare tire, so that you can save more tires.

A state-owned transportation enterprise with several thousand employees is also miserable enough to be mixed up like this.

However, Wang Haibin, the director of procurement, is a sycophant who has no ability, and his business ability is poor, even if he is given enough money, he can't buy tires.

Li Weidong remembered the lack of tires, so when he was in the Red Star Factory, he asked Liu Xueqin for the purchase index of tires.

......

Li Weidong followed Cui Dashan into the office, and successively greeted the secretary Yu Zhengcheng and the general manager Zhu Shicong.

Yu Zhengcheng pointed to the sofa next to him, motioned for the two to sit down, and then said, "Okay, everyone is here, let's talk about it, what's going on?"

Wang Haibin immediately complained: "It is the business of our procurement office to go to the manufacturer to return the goods, and Li Weidong went to the manufacturer to return the goods privately, which seriously interfered with the business of our procurement office, and this kind of unorganized and undisciplined behavior should be punished." ”

After Wang Haibin finished speaking, he looked at Li Weidong again, and then said: "Xiao Li, in front of the two leaders, you still hurry up to admit your mistakes, write a check seriously, and strive for a lenient treatment!"

I have to say that Wang Haibin is still a little scheming, he only blamed Li Weidong, but he never mentioned the auto repair workshop, which is tantamount to transferring the responsibility to Li Weidong personally, and also avoiding direct conflict with the auto repair workshop.

You must know that if Wang Haibin is involved in the auto repair workshop, it will become a conflict between departments, and the company's leaders will most likely use muddy means to solve the problem.

If the responsibility is passed on to the individual, it will become a conflict between the individual and the collective, and even if the individual does the right thing, he will be accused of breaking away from the collective and ignoring the overall situation.

These routines of putting on small shoes for people were learned by Wang Haibin in his struggle more than ten years ago, and now they are being used on Li Weidong.

Of course, Cui Dashan wanted to defend Li Weidong, and he explained: "Two leaders, I also reported on the batch of substandard parts of the Red Star Factory at the company's regular meeting. However, the procurement office has not returned the goods, if the end of the month, this batch of unqualified parts has not been returned, then it must be calculated into our workshop expenditure, the entire workshop to deduct the bonus. That's why I asked Li Weidong to go to Pingzhou Hongxing Factory and returned the unqualified parts. ”

Cui Dashan is indeed a good boss, and he took the initiative to stop the responsibility on himself.

Cui Dashan is in his early fifties, and he is still a middle-level cadre at his age, which means that it is impossible to continue to rise, so Cui Dashan doesn't mind helping his subordinates to stand up to the thunder, anyway, the company can't remove him as the director of the auto repair workshop.

Wang Haibin glared at Cui Dashan with some dissatisfaction, and then explained: "It's not that we don't return the auto repair shop, but because the business has been too busy recently, we put the return of goods at the back." I originally planned to send someone to the Red Star Factory to return the goods after I was busy for a while. ”

General Manager Zhu Shicong also said at this time: "I am in charge of the procurement department, and they have a lot of business recently, and it is estimated that it will not be completed until the end of the year." ”

With Zhu Shicong's support, Wang Haibin was more confident, and he said: "It is an indisputable fact that Li Weidong interfered with the business of our procurement office. If in the future, if everyone is like Li Weidong, who buys and returns goods at will without going through the procurement department, then how should the business of our procurement department be carried out? Therefore, I think the company should immediately stop this improper atmosphere and give Li Weidong a certain punishment, so as to set an example. ”

Zhu Shicong, who came to help, immediately nodded: "What Director Wang said makes sense, the so-called no rules are not a circle, we are such a big company, thousands of employees, if everyone does their own thing, and they all go to do the business of other departments, then the whole company will not be chaotic! This atmosphere must not rise! Each department performs its own duties and does a good job in its own business, so that the company can operate normally." ”

Zhu Shicong looked at Li Weidong again, pretended to be kind, and said: "Xiao Li, the matter of returning goods is indeed your fault, this is originally the business of the procurement department, and it is not under your control, and you are interfering with the work of the procurement department by doing so." You must deeply reflect on it, seriously review it, and make no example, and never make such mistakes again!"

Wang Haibin and Zhu Shicong sang and harmonized, and they saw that Li Weidong's "guilt" was about to be determined.

Li Weidong smiled coldly, and he said: "General Manager Zhu, I went to the Red Star Factory to return the goods, but I didn't delay my business, and I can be regarded as completing my own work on the basis of helping the brother department solve the difficulties." We are all the same company, is it a mistake for comrades to help each other? According to this statement, how many major demerits does Comrade Lei have to be recorded? I have been kind and tireless to help the procurement department, and if you don't give me righteousness and bravery, how can I still make a mistake?"

"We don't need your help in the affairs of our procurement department!Don't meddle with rats!" Wang Haibin snorted coldly.

Li Weidong smiled slightly, and said: "Director Wang, your sales office can't complete the tasks assigned by the company, you are the primary responsibility, although you are also very hard-working, but your business ability is not strong." But others are kind and kind enough to help you, and you don't appreciate it but beat you up, this is what you are wrong!"

"Who are you saying is not strong in business!" Wang Haibin was instantly furious.

Li Weidong had already torn his face with Wang Haibin, and naturally he no longer saved face for him, he continued: "Director Wang, if your business ability is strong enough, why is our company still short of tires? Purchasing tires is the business of your procurement office, right? The freight department has five cars sharing a spare tire, why didn't you buy the tires? Isn't the procurement office busy with business? You haven't got a tire so busy, isn't it because your business ability is not strong!"

Li Weidong's words directly exposed Wang Haibin's shortcomings.

Wang Haibin was instantly annoyed and angry: "You are an auto mechanic, you know what kind of procurement! Do you think procurement is so easy? Do you know how difficult it is to buy tires these days?"

"Yes, if you can't buy it, it's hard to buy, it's not that you lack business ability, in short, everything is caused by objective factors, and you don't have any responsibility. Li Weidong said sarcastically.

"Li Weidong, don't stand and talk without back pain, if you have the ability, you can purchase tires? If you can buy tires, I, the director of procurement, will do it for you!" Wang Haibin yelled angrily.

"That's what you said. Li Weidong put his hand in his pocket and took out the approval slip of the 250 tires of the Red Star Factory.
