Chapter 44: The Veterans Rally Call
In the 80s and 90s, there was a good saying -- who has the strongest relationship between people? Those who have been to the countryside together, those who have carried guns together, and those who have been through windows together.
Of course, there was a derivative version later, and I believe many people know about it, so I won't say much.
Su Chenyu has been thinking about a problem - the issue of employment, with the gradual realization of Su Chenyu's ideas, one company after another will definitely continue to be established.
An important problem arises -- how to arrange the management of these companies, and the current social situation is that these individual enterprises simply cannot recruit experienced managers and college students. Because no one will take the initiative to give up the iron rice bowl in his hand to serve the porcelain rice bowl of your individual enterprise in this era when the planned economy is still very strong, so Su Chenyu can only use the method of digging potential internally.
For a newly established company, it is most important to maintain the absolute control of the founder, because only in this way can the original intention of the company be better maintained.
Therefore, Su Chenyu decided to rule out the family business model, and set his sights on Su Zhenbang's comrades-in-arms.
Su Chenyu absolutely believes in the comradeship-in-arms of this era and future generations, and Su Zhenbang's comrades-in-arms are all brothers who depend on each other in the war and can deliver their lives. What's more, after Su Chenyu learned about it with Hou Zhengjun, he found that Su Zhenbang's old comrades-in-arms were not living in a very good situation now. So Su Chenyu decided to gather these veterans and give them a job, so that their living conditions would be better, and Su's company's lack of management personnel could be solved.
Su Chenyu said to Su Zhenbang and Xia Mingfeng, who were sitting opposite each other, in Xia Mingfeng's office: "Dad, godfather, I want to ask you something." β
"If you ask anything, as long as it is not within the confidentiality regulations, I will answer it in detail. Xia Mingfeng said with a smile.
Su Chenyu wasn't ready to get straight to the point, so he said step by step: "Have you ever understood the living conditions of your comrades-in-arms after they are discharged from the army?"
"Well, this one. Xia Mingfeng really didn't know what happened to those comrades-in-arms who had fought together on the battlefield after retiring.
Of course, Su Zhenbang is similar, except for a few people after he was forced to change jobs and go home, he really doesn't know about the others.
"Their living conditions are not very good, and even some of them have very difficult families. Su Chenyu said with some sadness.
"Really?" Su Zhenbang hurriedly asked, "Who did you listen to?"
"Of course it's true, Uncle Monkey said. He himself came to Yangcheng because his family was not very good, so he came to Yangcheng to break through. Su Chenyu said heavily.
Both of them were silent for a while, and then Xia Mingfeng said in a low voice: "I haven't done enough to those brothers over the years, it's not enough." β
"Yes, the comrades-in-arms who once saved their lives together have become like this, and they blame me. Su Zhenbang also lowered his head and said ashamedly.
"Godfather, are there any policies in the army that are helpful to these veterans. Su Chenyu continued.
Xia Mingfeng said embarrassedly: "Yes, there is, but many things are just words, and they don't have much effect at all when they reach the local government." β
"Dad, why don't we gather these veterans and comrades-in-arms and give them a better job. Su Chenyu saw that the foreshadowing was almost done, and finally mentioned the topic.
"We?" asked Su Zhenbang.
"Yes, after we go back, after the opening of Suning Home Appliance Mall, we will definitely need a lot of manpower, and we will continue to open branches after that. Rather than we recruit other people at that time, it is better to find these old comrades-in-arms of yours, and the goods from eastern Guangdong to the East China Sea must need reliable people to escort them, and I feel that these veterans are the most reliable. Su Chenyu said.
"Yes, good way. Xia Mingfeng patted his thigh and said, "Our troops absolutely support this matter." β
"It's a good idea. Su Zhenbang also continued.
"And in the future, when we get older, we will enter other industries, and we will need more manpower, and we can directly ask for retired soldiers from our godfather. In this way, not only is it easy and reliable for us to recruit people, but it is also a credit to the godfather, the division commander, knowing that arranging retired soldiers is not an easy task. Su Chenyu threw out another tempting candy.
After Xia Mingfeng thought about it for a while, he felt that there was a lot to do, and he couldn't help but pat Su Zhenbang happily and said, "Old Su, how did you say that my godson grew up, why are you so smart?"
"It's good at the root. Su Zhenbang said seriously.
In fact, Su Zhenbang didn't know Xia Mingfeng's positioning of Su Chenyu at this moment, and directly changed from his favorite "godson" to a "staff" who can be valued in the future.
From the last time Su Chenyu took action to solve Su Zhenbang's matter, to today's emergence of such a method that is very beneficial to his "way of promotion", Su Chenyu is completely like an "old oilman" who has been immersed in power for many years.
"But will these comrades-in-arms come? And how can we contact them? After so many years, I don't know if the previous address is still valid?" Su Zhenbang couldn't help but raise his worries.
"I have a feeling that they will definitely come, knowing that the conditions we gave are absolutely excellent. As for how to contact them, as long as you can contact a few, and then contact them to contact others, you will definitely find a lot. Su Chenyu had obviously thought of this matter a long time ago, so he said to the countermeasures that he had thought of a long time ago: "You must know that 6 people can find anyone in the world." β
"Okay, that's it. Our troops fully support your company. Xia Mingfeng said in the final word.
In the next few days, Hou Zhengjun first agreed to follow Su Zhenbang, so Su Zhenbang and Hou Zhengjun were busy writing and sending letters.
Like the rallying cry of the troops, letters flew into the hands of the veterans, telling them to get back on their feet and join the new "battle".
Su Zhenbang stayed in eastern Guangdong for about half a month, and under Xia Mingfeng's arrangement, Su Zhenbang had already completed all the goods to be imported, and all the goods totaling more than 600,000 yuan were loaded onto the vehicles of the troop transport company.
Su Zhenbang has been arranging things on the Yangcheng side these days, and under Su Chenyu's construction, he has decided to set up a Suning office in Yangcheng - of course, Hou Zhengjun is alone at present. Su Zhenbang let the monkeys stay in Yangcheng, on the one hand, for the convenience of purchasing goods in the future, and on the other hand, to receive those veteran comrades-in-arms who were going to vote and arrange for them to go to their hometown in the ancient city.
Before leaving, Su Zhenbang and Su Chenyu naturally wanted to have a small get-together with Xia Mingfeng and Yan Jing. Xia Mingfeng and his wife were naturally reluctant to let Su Chenyu go, and even proposed that Su Chenyu go to school in Yangcheng, and their reasons were also very good - the educational resources and conditions in Yangcheng were much better than those in the small county town of the ancient city. However, Su Chenyu did not agree, although he had the urge to go out and fly solo, but now is not the time.
Su Chenyu and Su Zhenbang got into the big truck under the eyes of Xia Mingfeng and Hou Zhengjun, and they wanted to go back with the car. Naturally, the convoy of these troop vehicles did not receive any harassment on the road, so after traveling day and night, they finally arrived at the ancient city.
After unloading the goods, Su Zhenbang naturally wanted to give the freight of this trip to others, although they said that this was the task assigned by the division commander and could not ask for money, but the more this was the case, Su Chenyu asked Su Zhenbang to pay the freight.
Su Chenyu didn't want to lay the roots for Xia Mingfeng's future promotion here, let alone give the Su family's company a hat that took advantage of the country and the army.
In the more than 20 days that Su Zhenbang and Su Chenyu left home, they thought about their family members a lot, and at this time, there was no such convenient communication tool as in later generations. There were suddenly two fewer people in the house, and it was naturally empty, and the grandfather and grandmother asked where their great-grandson had gone all day long, why hadn't they seen it in the past few days, and Li Yuhan was also muttering about his father and younger brother all day long. Especially Feng Ying, Su Chenyu is the first time to leave him when he is so old, so he naturally can't think about it, either worried about whether he eats well or not, or worried that he will not kick the quilt when he sleeps at night.
When Su Zhenbang and Su Chenyu walked into the house in the sunset, Feng Ying, who was washing vegetables, put down the basin and ran over to hug Su Chenyu. Feng Ying kissed and hugged Su Chenyu, she didn't know how to get better, and her tears kept flowing. When the people of the Su family saw Su Zhenbang and Su Chenyu coming back, they naturally came over to ask for warmth.
"Xiaoyu, you miss me to death. Feng Ying hugged Su Chenyu and couldn't stop saying.
"I miss you too, Mom. Su Chenyu also said emotionally, maybe only maternal love in this world can make people cry.
Li Yuhan also said beside him: "Xiaoyu, I can also miss you and my father." β
"Yes, you're not at home and you're going to kill me. As soon as I heard this, Su Zhenguo said.
Shi Yuxiu also hugged Su Chenyu and said, "Xiaoyu, do you miss grandma?"
"I thought about it, I thought about it, I missed my mother, I missed my sister, I missed my grandfather, my grandmother, I missed Grandpa Ye, and my grandfather, my grandmother, my second grandfather, my second grandmother, and my uncle. Su Chenyu was ashamed to sell cute, and said with his fingers.
"Good boy, good boy, good grandson of grandma. Shi Yuxiu smiled and kissed Su Chenyu and said.
The surrounding family members naturally laughed, and Su Zhongping, who nodded and smiled, said to Su Zhenbang: "Zhenbang, you go to your grandfather and grandmother's house to sue sΓΉ, they have been talking about you since you left." β
"Here it goes. Su Zhenbang immediately stood up and said.
"I'll go too. Su Chenyu said to everyone: "By the way, send them the things I bought for my grandfather and grandmother." Your gifts will be sent to you when I return. β
Su Chenyu and Su Zhenbang's trip to Yangcheng bought a lot of things and came back, of course, everyone has a share. After Su Chenyu came back from his grandfather and grandmother, of course, he had to distribute the gifts he brought back to everyone one by one. Most of these things are imported from abroad or Hong Kong, and now they are not available in the mainland.
At the dinner table in the evening, Su Zhenbang naturally told everyone about the situation in Yangcheng, and they were naturally amazed after listening to it. Of course, the father and son did not mention the incident at the Shangmao Street Police Station, as if it had never happened.
The next day, Su Zhenbang and Su Chenyu did not rest, and hurried to Suning Home Appliance Mall to prepare for the opening, and all the goods naturally had to be put on the shelves. The news of Su Zhenbang's return - Wen Zhaolin and Su Yun naturally knew, so they came the next day when Su Zhenbang was busy working in the home appliance shopping mall.
"Sister-in-law, what is my brother doing in Yangcheng this time?" Su Yun couldn't help but ask happily with the gift that Su Zhenbang had prepared for the two.
"I don't know, maybe it's to see an old comrade-in-arms. Feng Ying said in a daze. What did Su Zhenbang and Su Chenyu do in Yangcheng this time, and the Su family knew about Feng Ying, Su Zhongping, and Ye Yunxiu, and no one else knew what they were going to do, but they just said that they were going to see their old comrades.
Su Yun asked curiously, "Does my brother still have old comrades-in-arms over there?"
"Your brother's old squad leader is now the division commander over there, and I went to meet him this time. Feng Ying said.
"Division commander, eldest brother's comrades-in-arms are all division commanders?" Wen Zhaolin was taken aback and asked with some surprise.
"Well, over there in eastern Guangdong. β
Su Yun suddenly remembered something, so she asked, "What about my brother and Xiaoyu, why aren't they at home?"
"Let's go out and do something else. Feng Ying said secretly.
At this time, all the preparations on the side of Suning Home Appliance Mall have been prepared......
