Chapter 24: After the Fact

After the end of the competition, the foreign factory was in a sluggish atmosphere for several days.

It is difficult for the workers below to accept the fact that the factory they work for has lost to a Huaguo factory, and at the same time, they are also worried about the future of the factory and their own future.

The engineer who had been hired had already left, and he was not paid, so he naturally did not have any obligations. Since he has only been here for a long time, he has no feelings for this factory. He was not optimistic about the factory, so he was not prepared to stay any longer. Anyway, with his skills, he doesn't have to worry about finding a job.

A few well-connected people who were not so loyal to the factory owner also left, leaving only the henchmen of the factory director and the workers on meager wages.

The director of the factory was reluctant to accept this fact, but after he was detained for several days on the grounds of "disturbing public order" and was severely taught a lesson, he became depressed and had no energy to do anything more.

The content of the competition between the foreign factory and the Gu's factory is widely known, and the previous remarks of the foreign factory have offended too many people, and in recent days, everyone has been clamoring for this foreign factory to get out of Huaguo's territory. The factory owner pretended to be deaf and dumb for a few days, and then saw that the situation was getting more and more out of control, and even the machinery and equipment in the factory were smashed by the nearby people, so he was reluctant to take a few of his right-hand men back home.

The foreign factory has closed down, but the Gu's factory is now gaining momentum.

On the second day after the end of the competition, Gu's factory received a large number of orders, some for steel, some for finished weapons, and even the cement factory received extra attention because of Gu's name.

Those who had previously canceled the order because of the rumors regretted it and hurriedly sent someone to contact the person in charge of marketing at the Gu's factory again, wanting to restart the cooperation.

These people who have placed orders in the Gu factory do not have much affection for the foreign factory. For many years, foreign factories had been selling materials and weapons to them at high prices, and later, countries banned the export of weapons to the southern government, and factories in China also changed their faces. Not only did weapons no longer sell to them, but even the price of steel doubled.

Not all countries have imposed arms bans on the southern government, and some foreign factories are still doing arms business with the southern government. However, they are only willing to sell outdated weapons to the southern government, and the asking price is three to five times the normal price. Even with these weapons, the Government of the South is unlikely to pose any threat to the home countries of those arms-dealers.

Most of these people in City B are the targets of slaughter, and the foreign factories make their money while despising them. It's not that they don't know this, but they can't do anything about it.

At first, they saw that the asking price of Gu's factory was only half of that of foreign factories, and even Qin Lao had placed an order in the factory, so they also thought about it and followed the trend and placed an order in Gu's factory. Later, when the contract was signed, they saw that the performance of the samples taken out by the Gu's factory was very superior, and they were not inferior to the products of the foreign factory, and to be honest, they were also relieved.

If the Gu factory really has this ability, and the asking price has always been so fair, they will be able to save a lot of costs in the future, not to mention, and they don't have to look at the face of the foreign factory.

Later, the message started, and under the impetus of well-intentioned people, overnight, everyone questioned the quality of Gu's factory products. Because there was not enough trust in Gu's factory, their trust was easily shaken.

Moreover, the idea that the products produced by the national factories are inferior to those of the foreign factories is deeply ingrained in their hearts. They felt that the products of the Gu's factory could not be better than those produced by the foreign factory, and if they were better, it could only mean that those products were not from the Gu's factory. Therefore, they believed the message fabricated by the foreign factory, thinking that the Gu factory had deceived Qin Lao with the products they bought from the United States.

However, in yesterday's competition, Gu's factory shattered their long-ingrained concept in front of everyone. They not only understood the weight of the Gu factory in the government and in the hearts of Qin Lao, but also saw the real strength of the Gu factory. They know better that as people in the industrial circle, building a good relationship with Gu's factory is the top priority in the next period of time.

When Gu's factory has not yet determined its fixed partner, whoever can establish diplomatic relations with Gu's factory first will be able to get the first opportunity!

The sudden rise of Gu's factory was like a hurricane, causing a huge wave in the industrial circle of City B.

As the owner of Gu's factory and the person who is in charge of the overall situation of this competition, Gu Shuhan saw the newspaper. Premier Bai, Qin Lao and others made speeches, praising Gu Shuhan as an "excellent national industrialist", and the newspapers also spoke highly of Gu Shuhan, calling him "the hope of Huaguo industry".

There is another person who appeared on the same page as Gu Shuhan, that is, Gu Zhenghong, who contributed a lot to the foreign factory in the dispute between Gu's factory and foreign factory. is different from Gu Shuhan's current public praise, Gu Zhenghong is now infamous.

Regardless of the truth, he let the newspaper under his name publish remarks to attack his daughter, build momentum for the foreign factory, and make everyone despised.

The most influential newspaper in City B said that he "not only had no dedication to work, but also had no fatherly heart, and was not a qualified Chinese", nailing him to the pillar of shame of seeking only profit and worshipping foreigners. All of a sudden, Gu Zhenghong was like a rat crossing the street, everyone shouted and beat him, and some radical patriots even blocked the door of Gu's mansion.

There's no way, who made Mr. Gu also a social celebrity, it's really easy to find Gu's house.

I heard that Xu Liping didn't even dare to go out in the past two days, for fear of being smashed rotten eggs. As for Gu Zhenghong, he has been so busy recently that he has no time to worry about these "little things". Because his personal reputation has been so bad lately, many partners who have already signed agreements with him have asked to terminate their contracts. Suppliers are reluctant to supply Gu Zhenghong anymore, and people are not willing to buy things from the "foreigner's doglegs" store, anyway, it is not only his family that sells these things, and it is the same when he goes to other houses.

Seeing the deterioration of his own shop's business, Gu Zhenghong turned gray. Seeing that the store was about to be unable to open, Gu Zhenghong gritted his teeth and finally decided to reduce the price. His move has saved some customers, after all, although the people are patriotic, they also want to live, and it is naturally best to save some. However, Gu Zhenghong offended most people in the industry because of this, and those colleagues who were originally watching the fire from the other side unceremoniously began to fall into the trap for Gu Zhenghong, and in the end, Gu Zhenghong lost most of his assets.

Because the blow was too big, Gu Zhenghong turned white overnight.

Gu Shuhan had considered whether to make a statement to sever the father-daughter relationship at this time, but she thought carefully for a while and finally gave up.

Gu Zhenghong is already so miserable, at this time, if she makes such a statement, it will inevitably make some people sympathize with Gu Zhenghong. In today's society, even if the masses understand that Gu Zhenghong is at fault, if her daughter takes the initiative to cut off relations with Gu Zhenghong, she will definitely be criticized.

Gu Shuhan was not afraid of these gossips, but she felt that there was no need to tarnish her reputation for such a person.

Waiting and seeing what happens is the best choice.

Now that Gu Zhenghong's image in the eyes of everyone has fallen to the bottom, if he still wants to calculate her in the future, there is no need to deliberately guide public opinion, and the people will automatically condemn him as the fault party.

Whether she has a nominal father-daughter relationship with him or not really doesn't make much difference.

After thinking about it for a while, Gu Shuhan threw Gu Zhenghong's matter aside, at present, she had more important things to do.

Looking at the application materials on the table, Gu Shuhan raised his eyebrows: "These are all science and engineering students who came back from abroad?" They want to join me Gu's? ”

"Yes." The person in charge of the transfer of management personnel said to Gu Shuhan: "These are real talents, not only did they have excellent grades during their study abroad, but they also made a lot of contributions after returning to China." They are not inexperienced young people, as long as they get to the factory, a lot of work can be started immediately. And they may be able to bring us some valuable lessons to the table. ”

If he hadn't seen the application information of these people with his own eyes, I'm afraid he wouldn't have believed that these people would actually want to come to Gu's!

However, thinking about the recent prosperity of his own factory, he gradually calmed down.

The development of our own factory is so good, there are a lot of orders every day, it can be said that the future is limitless, and it is natural to be able to attract some talents to volunteer to work at the door, right?

Besides, no matter how good these people are, can they be better than Miss Gu?

Thinking about it this way, the original anxiety when facing these heavenly pride immediately went to seventy or eighty percent.

Since the competition incident, the people in the factory have admired Gu Shuhan and are convinced, and they have become more and more confident in the factory. This mentality unconsciously affected the people in the factory.

In the past, they were apprehensive in the face of a small number of customers, for fear that the products produced in their own factories would be disliked by them, but now, only they are picky about others, and no one else picks on them.

In the process of fame and expansion of the factory, many veteran employees in the Gu factory have also completed the transformation of their mentality.

"Then recruit them in, as long as they have real skills, my Gu factory will not treat them badly."

No matter what time it is, there is never too much talent. Moreover, the three factories under Gu Shuhan's name are now in the expansion stage, and it is when a large number of personnel need to be recruited, so Gu Shuhan will naturally not refuse them.

After the man left, Gu Shuhan glanced at the stack of resumes on the table, and the top one reflected Cui Hongxin's name.
