Chapter 2: The Verge
After the fight, Li Shaohui's mood became worse and worse, and he became more and more bored with the afternoon meeting.
At half past three o'clock in the afternoon, the celebration of the Blue River project was officially held, and the heads of various departments rushed in, when Li Shaohui, who was in a complicated mood, was about to enter the conference room with the flow of people, but was quietly pulled by Song Dafu, Li Shaohui turned to look at Song Dafu, and was about to speak, but saw Song Dafu shook his head and signaled to the corner of the stairs, Li Shaohui understood in his heart, and walked there with Song Dafu.
On the way around the corner, Li Shaohui saw Seinfeld sneaking into Yang Caigeng's office, and he sighed, his heart even heavier.
When he arrived at the corner, Li Shaohui looked at no one around him, and wondered, "Brother Song, what's wrong?"
Song Dafu sighed and asked, "Xiao Li, do you know what they will do when the meeting is held?"
Li Shaohui snorted, "Shake the pot that should be shaken, what else can you do, isn't this their trick?" Before he finished speaking, he found that Song Dafu's face was even more ugly than in the morning, and he was a little pale.
In Li Shaohui's memory, Song Dafu has always been an outgoing, cheerful, calm and calm person, and nothing has ever made him so nervous and embarrassed.
Song Dafu was silent for a long time before he spoke: "Things are far more than that, the huge project of tens of millions of dollars in Blue River, it took us a year to complete, but in the end, we didn't earn a penny, so for such a huge mistake, the board of directors was also angry, let us hold a meeting to review and admit the mistake."
But in the face of such serious consequences, who would dare to admit his mistake, so Yang Caigeng has privately discussed with the heads of the procurement department of the Ministry of Commerce and other departments to find a scapegoat, so--so..."
"Why should we take the blame?" Li Shaohui shouted angrily when he heard this.
Song Dafu closed his eyes and sighed, "I've been thinking about this matter all morning, we can't hide this time anyway, since that's the case, then let me bear all the faults!"
"How can this be?" Li Shaohui said, kicking the wall suddenly, and Song Dafu looked at Li Shaohui's footprints on the wall silently.
After Li Shaohui vented a breath of anger in his heart, he calmed down a little, he looked at Song Dafu who looked haggard in front of him, and suddenly felt sad, although Song Dafu was young and promising, he had become a project manager before the age of 35, but his life experience was very tragic.
Song Dafu came from the countryside, his mother died early due to illness, his younger brother was injured at work on the construction site and became lame, and his sister had to marry a blind man to pay off her debts for the family.
So now he urgently needs a stable job and a good salary to save money to save his brother and sister.
But if he doesn't take the blame, then it's very likely that he will have to top the bag himself, but he was born in society for a few years and has achieved nothing, and he finally mixed up a little bit here, and if he loses his job this time, then he has to go to other places to start from scratch.
Thinking of these gains and losses, Li Shaohui and Song Dafu looked at each other and smiled bitterly, silently.
After a while, Song Dafu said bitterly: "Xiao Li, if I lose my job this time, they will definitely ask me about the suitable candidates for this position, so at that time, I hope you will take our brothers in Group A to work hard, and don't be planted in their hands again." ”
Li Shaohui was stunned when he heard this, and suddenly wet his eyes, he never thought that Song Dafu would take care of himself like this, and suddenly, he thought of Song Dafu's support and care for himself on weekdays, it can be said that in Nanjing Far East Company, without Song Dafu, there would be no oneself.
Li Shaohui pondered for a long time, and sighed in his heart, it's over, it's over, anyway, his girlfriend also ran away, one single, one person eats enough and the whole family is not hungry, what's so terrible, it's a big deal to start over.
Li Shaohui and Song Dafu were silent for a moment, Song Dafu sighed, and said with a forced smile: "It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, don't think about it, let's go, go to the meeting." ”
After Song Dafu finished speaking, he pulled Li Shaohui and walked towards the conference room.
When he entered the conference room, Seinfeld happened to come out of Yang Caigeng's office, he looked at Li Shaohui, a smug and sinister smile flashed on his face, Li Shaohui blushed, and wanted to pounce on him and beat him again, but he was pulled into the office by Song Dafu.
In the conference room, there is a huge oval table, next to which the general manager and the heads of various departments sit in turn, either with their eyes closed, or whispering in pairs, or reading documents... When they saw Song Dafu and Li Shaohui, they all showed complicated expressions.
Li Shaohui sneered in his heart, sat down next to Song Dafu behind the long table, he looked at the people present, thinking about Song Dafu's words just now, he really held a fire in his heart, but this nameless fire had nowhere to spread.
At the end, he shifted his attention and began to observe the conference room in a depressed and boring manner, looking to the right is the projector screen, which reads "Celebrating the successful completion of the Blue River Project" several scarlet characters, on the top of the projector is a retro European style quartz clock, opposite the quartz clock, that is, the front wall of the conference room is pasted with a sign of six S management, and the sign is pasted with the slogan "Work hard, surpass yourself".
"Work hard to be a ghost, surpass a fart, and try hard to surpass again, isn't it framed?" Li Shaohui scolded angrily, and suddenly remembered something, so he ran out of the office, turned on the computer, printed a stack of materials, and then asked Liu to prepare a few spare parts for the Blue River project.
When Li Shaohui just entered the conference room after doing these things, Chairman Yao Wanli also walked in with a few uncommon shareholders with vigorous steps.
Subsequently, the meeting was officially held, and the first speech at the meeting was naturally Yao Wanli, who was the chairman of the board of directors and did not interfere in the specific affairs of the company, so he only said a few words and handed over the microphone to the general manager.
The general manager waited for the applause to pause, while congratulating Yao Wanli flatteringly, he turned on the projector and began to introduce the Blue River project.
Then it was the turn of the Ministry of Commerce, the Procurement Department, the Administration Department and other departments to speak, listening to these people's speeches, Li Shaohui's heart sank, Song Dafu said that it was not wrong, they really discussed, to find a backbiter, they all avoided the important and lightly said some inconsequential mistakes such as no active coordination, as for the key factors, they were all blamed to the technical department, or the explicit or implicit insinuation was caused by the failure of the technical department in the field commissioning, and they had nothing to do with it.
Looking at the ugly faces of these people, Li Shaohui smiled coldly, and once again appreciated the sinister aspects of office politics, he looked down at the information in his hand, and sneered in his heart, "You are unkind, don't blame Lao Tzu for being unjust, Lao Tzu has a way to make you unable to eat and go." ”
After the heads of these departments finished speaking, Yang Caigeng, the technical director, stood up, he helped the black reading glasses, and said in a deep tone: "As the leaders and colleagues said, the technical department made a serious mistake in the commissioning of the Blue River project, which brought great losses to the company, and I feel deeply guilty, for which I solemnly apologize to all the leaders and colleagues on behalf of all the members of the technical department, and say 'sorry'." ”
"Lao Yang, don't be nervous, no one can do anything wrong if he is not a sage. Yao Wanli comforted.
Yang Caigeng glanced at Yao Wanli gratefully, nodded, and continued: "The Blue River project is fully responsible for Group A of the Technology Department, and it took one year from project approval to completion.
In this year, the hard work of Group A is obvious to all, but I, as the technical director, took two leave of absence for a total of about a month due to my ill health, so there was no detailed supervision of the project, resulting in a major mistake in the project, so I sincerely asked the company to punish me and allow me to take leave to retire. ”
"Lao Yang, what are you talking about, you are still young, it's okay to get sick, and besides, the responsibility for this time is not all on you, you can't talk nonsense in the future. Yao Wanli frowned and comforted.
Although Li Shaohui was young, listening to Yang Caigeng's words, he couldn't help but be angry, and wanted to stand up and scold him in front of everyone.
Yang Caigeng's words just now seemed plain and bland, and he didn't say anything, but in order to exonerate himself, he had completely betrayed Group A of the Technology Department.
First of all, he apologized and played the sympathy card to arouse the pity of the middle and upper echelons of the company; secondly, he said that the project was the sole responsibility of Group A, so if something went wrong, the person in charge of the project should be held accountable first; and he also added a sentence in the middle, "The efforts of Group A are obvious to all," and used a method of wanting to suppress Xianyang's irony.
Then, he said that he was sick and lacked energy, and even if he made mistakes, it was understandable. After that, he emphasized that his position was that he was a technical director, and that he was only supervising, and even if he had it, it was a secondary responsibility.
In the end, he used retirement as an excuse to play the sympathy card again.
His speech did achieve a perfect effect, not only shirking him completely, but also turning around, Yao Wanli also comforted him.
In fact, Yang Caigeng's speech, as long as people who are familiar with the Blue River project, are easy to debunk him.
During the commissioning period, Song Dafu would report to him in time if he had any major problems, and during his illness, Song Dafu also led Li Shaohui to the hospital to visit him kindly and humbly asked him for advice, so it was impossible for Yang Caigeng not to know about the problems in the project.
But during the commissioning process, Yang Caigeng disregarded the actual situation and even assigned Song Dafu to another project site, and before going to another site, Song Dafu wanted Li Shaohui to be fully responsible.
But Yang Caigeng listened to slander and played with power, so he had to transfer Li Shaohui back to the company and send another member of Group C.
The members of Group C went to the scene, but they were headless flies, not according to the local conditions of the scene, but they were rigid and rigid, and they did not say anything about the debugging plan of Group A, and did not consult with Group A.
So far, the construction period of the Blue River project has not only been delayed by several weeks, but also a lot of useless equipment has been purchased, which has increased the project cost and caused a situation that is now difficult to clean up.
At this time, the conference room was silent, and the atmosphere of solemnity was permeating.
After Yang Caigeng finished speaking, only Song Dafu and Li Shaohui did not speak.
Looking at the sinister workplace, sighing that life is not easy...
