Chapter 2: The Secrets of Past Lives

Early in the morning, Zhang Mingyu called Mr. Liu and asked to report to work, and Mr. Liu said that there was a meeting in the material hall in the morning, and he could only return at half past ten. Zhang Mingyu immediately rushed to the Jiangnan branch to arrange today's day's work, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw the fat man Li Hao holding a bowl of hot dry noodles, two fritters, and a bowl of eggnog on the desk eating and drinking. "Fatty, you don't treat yourself badly, what time is it?" , Zhang Mingyu scolded unceremoniously, "Mr. Zhang, the time is not half past eight, you are too early, or I will buy you a bowl of noodles", the fat man smiled obscenely with me. "Everyone is here, set a rule today, no dinner after breakfast, if anyone violates the regulations, a fine of 10 yuan, the fine will be used as our company's activity funds", "Mr. Zhang is wise, so decided" Everyone said in unison. Then there's the day's work. Zhang Mingyu left Huang Yan and Li Guang alone, mainly to talk about the situation of Yunxi Transformer Factory and Dong'an Transformer Factory. Huang Yan has been tracking Yunbian in the early stage, and Li Guang has been in charge of the business of Dongbian, the two factories are about to pass on the new demand plan, the three of them exchanged views on the tracking manufacturers, and decided to visit the manufacturers led by Zhang Mingyu before the lunar calendar, and expressed their hearts to the manufacturer's procurement and senior management appropriately, so as to facilitate the work in the coming year. Immediately afterwards, Zhang Mingyu and Li Guang discussed the specific measures for the sales of hot and cold plate materials in Checheng City and Xiangjiang City, Bac Giang Province, and exchanged views on the inspection of the two markets. Because Mr. Xiao is working on the second floor next door, so Zhang Mingyu and Li Guang went to Mr. Xiao's office to report the business situation, Mr. Xiao said that he would not visit the two transformer factories, but he would definitely inspect Checheng and Xiangjiang, and the results coincided with the discussion between the two. After going downstairs, Li Guang took Zhang Mingyu's hand and whispered, "Mr. Xiao can be chic again", Zhang Mingyu smiled and did not squeak. It seems that everyone still knows Lao Xiao's problem.

It was almost ten o'clock, Zhang Mingyu drove to the head office non-stop, fortunately, there was no traffic jam on the road. When I arrived at Mr. Liu's office, I found that Mr. Liu had just put down his handbag. Liu Hanhong, male, 46 years old, from Jiangcheng City, medium height, slightly chubby, flat head, looks a bit like the diamond leopard in "The Story of Bandits in Oolong Mountain", with bright eyes and a murderous aura between his eyebrows. Zhang Mingyu refilled the water for Mr. Liu himself, and brought himself a cup of tea, "It's still good tea in the boss's office", Zhang Mingyu sighed, Mr. Liu took a sip of tea,

Hehe smiled, "A zebra (Jiangcheng local swearing, equivalent to TMD), I didn't see you pay me a little tribute, if you want, take the unopened one", Mr. Liu shouted. Zhang Mingyu was also unceremonious, and stuffed the unopened bag directly into the bag.

"Mr. Liu (Mr. Zhang Mingyu calls him this in private): How can my tea be sprinkled on the table. Today I came mainly for business, followed by private affairs, business is the progress of Jiangnan branch is inseparable from the support of the boss and other CEOs of the company, the main problem at this stage, first of all, the problem of capital occupation of Jiangcheng steel mill is not very clear, you need your boss to speak to let the company's audit department audit and verify, followed by the problem of resources, since our company is required to complete the profit is higher than other companies, then the resource allocation can not be divided equally between the five departments, but should be allocated according to how much resources are handed over, so that it is fair", Mr. Liu nodded and said, " This reason is reasonable, but the head office is too big, it is impossible to pinch each poop round, the resources of each branch can be considered in principle according to the appropriate distribution of profit indicators, as for the Jiangcheng steel mill to occupy the capital audit, I agree to start immediately, so as not to be unclear about the occupation of funds by various departments", "or the boss is wise!" Immediately afterwards, Zhang Mingyu visited the factory before the Spring Festival and the hot and cold plate sales of Checheng and Xiangjiang told Mr. Liu, Mr. Liu was very satisfied, and also expressed concern about the collection of external arrears, Zhang Mingyu said with a smile, "Boss, don't worry about salty radishes, the largest amount of foreign arrears is expected to be successfully resolved, and now I want to report two private matters, one is the master's thesis defense, my old classmate, your professor Liu has given me the scope of the defense, and I have also printed out the general content, and I will hand it over to you, Waiting for the dissertation defense after half a month, the second thing is that Professor Liu called the professors of the defense together, ready to have dinner together on the evening of January 4th after the New Year's Day, I have a treat, preliminarily set at the Nanjiang Hotel, then your old man will participate in person, and I am also ready for gifts, so don't worry about it", "During this time, you keep mentioning anti-corruption and clean government, don't make a mess, you fight for some gas this year, do good results, don't embarrass me", "yes, sir resolutely complete the task" "Okay, The Audit Department will send someone tomorrow

stationed in Jiangcheng Steel Mill, thoroughly investigate the problem of capital occupation", "Great, boss, I hope that the audit department will find out the reason as soon as possible, let us put down our burdens and emancipate our minds", Mr. Liu teased "Don't mind, you don't think how far you think, you fly as far as you want", "How dare you, with your old man at the helm, how can I fly, it is also a kite with the line in your hand", "Hmph, the sky is high and the birds fly, the sea is wide and the fish jumps, you fly, as long as you don't fall off". Coming out of Mr. Liu's office, Zhang Mingyu recalled what Mr. Liu said later, yes, Mr. Liu, I won't let you down, I will soar.

On the way back to the branch, Zhang Mingyu was excited, and the conversation with Mr. Liu today has achieved the goal, and he has to communicate more with Mr. Liu in the future. Think about Mr. Liu's measures after coming to the company for more than a year, it can be said that it is quite strong, first of all, the seniority buyout, each employee can choose to buy out the base of 30,000, the length of service is 1,000 yuan per year, if an employee has worked for 20 years, then, his buyout amount is 50,000 (3 + 20 * 0.1 = 50,000), through this buyout, clean up more than 50 employees. Secondly, it is strictly forbidden for the business department to sell on credit, no matter what, the department shall not sell on credit without authorization, and major credit sales need to be decided by the deputy general manager in charge of the head office team. Third, the reimbursement expenses of the business department shall be reimbursed according to the monthly profit index and 10% of the profit, and no profit or loss shall be reimbursed. These reform measures stimulated the profitability of the business department, so in 1999, the whole company turned losses into profits in one fell swoop, achieving a profit of 4 million yuan, which was the first time in three years. Even Zhang Mingyu's original loss-making Jiangdong branch also achieved a profit of 150,000 yuan in 99 years, you know, Jiangdong branch is an old and difficult company with a foreign debt of 40 million, and in the past three years, it has been "Wang Xiaoer's New Year is not as good as a year", but I didn't expect that there would be bonuses this year.

Back at the Jiangnan branch, Zhang Mingyu began to arrange the work after New Year's Day, and prepared to contact Jiang Guoqing, deputy secretary general of the provincial government, in the afternoon through the relationship of his good friend Qian Jin, who worked in the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee. Speaking of which, the third brother Qian Jin has a lot of connections with Zhang Mingyu's family. It turned out that Qian Jin's father Qian Shengwen was a veteran cadre of the Liberation War, who was rectified during the turmoil, and the whole family was sent to the Wuqi Cadre School in Chuanshui, a suburb of Jiangcheng City, that is, Zhang Mingyu's hometown, labor reform, and met Zhang Mingyu's father Zhang Jianghai, who was the deputy secretary of the commune at the time, and happened to be in charge of the cadre school. Later, at the end of the turmoil, the two families became good friends, and the three children of Qian Shengwen's family and Zhang Mingyu's five sisters were even closer to each other, basically "one family does not speak two words". I didn't expect that Uncle Qian Shengwen, who thought that he would spend his whole life in a school in the suburbs, was directly reinstated as the deputy director of the Organization Department and the director of the Personnel Department of Nanjiang Province as the central government's policy of rectifying chaos was issued. The next butterfly effect is that Zhang Jianghai, who was originally going to retire from the second line at the end of the 80s, has become a deputy director of the people's congress in the suburbs, and now enjoys the treatment of paying the district level to be idle at home. In addition to Zhang Mingyu, the four sisters in their family have arranged very good jobs, the eldest sister is in the District Family Planning Commission, the eldest brother is in the District Civil Affairs Bureau, the second sister is in the District Health Bureau, and the younger sister is in the District Water Conservancy Bureau. The distribution of Zhang Mingyu's graduation from university is also through Uncle Qian's third child, Qian Jin, who served as the section chief of the Third Division of the Organization Department, and Zhang Mingyu's father is also an old friend of Wang Heping, deputy director of the Political Department of the Provincial Department of Materials, for many years, so that Zhang Mingyu was arranged to the material company under the Department of Materials. It's really feng shui in turn! After talking to the third brother, Director Qian, Zhang Mingyu hurried to Director Qianda's office. Qian Jin, director of the Third Division of Cadres of the Organization Department of Nanjiang Province, is burly, one meter eight tall, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, a high nose bridge, a slightly thin face, and a full atrium. Director Qian got in touch with Secretary-General Jiang, and the two hurried to Dongting Fishing Village to wait for Secretary-General Jiang's arrival.

"Third brother (Qian Jin is the third in the family, the youngest, but older than Zhang Mingyu), what you said last time about the city and state where the CEO of the company is suspended, is there any hope?" ，

Director Qian replied, "Xiao Si (Zhang Mingyu is at home for four), what are you doing, are you a little lenient", "Third brother, no, our company's Mr. Liu has superior conditions in all aspects, see if he can operate it, he is gone, isn't it good to make room for it", "Little Si, do your job well, don't inquire, this matter should be put on the agenda soon". As he was talking, Secretary-General Jiang walked in.

"Oh, Secretary General Jiang, you are a distinguished guest, come, this is my little brother Mingyu, Mingyu, this is your big brother on National Day", after the introduction, Zhang Mingyu enthusiastically held Secretary General Jiang's right hand with both hands, "Brother National Day, it's better to be famous than to meet, I have admired your old man for a long time", it turns out that Jiang Guoqing's family and Qian Jin's family are world friends, and the two families move around frequently. Jiang Guoqing, male, 50 years old, from Jiangdong Province, the son of the former vice governor of Nanjiang Province, has a slightly dark face and clear forehead lines, and was implicated by his father and imprisoned during the turmoil. After taking a seat, Director Qian Da told Secretary General Jiang about the situation of our family, and Jiang Guoqing was so happy that he said loudly, "Little brother Mingyu, since you have this relationship, don't say anything, in the future, I will have another brother of yours, and you will have another brother." Zhang Mingyu poured three glasses of wine, picked up the wine glass, and said,

"Brother National Day, the first glass of wine, the first time we met, I forged the little brother more, I did it",

"Okay, I'll take this glass of wine directly from your brother today, it's done", while eating vegetables, Zhang Mingyu poured wine again,

"The second glass of wine, toast to the two eldest brothers, the New Year is here, I wish the two eldest brothers a happy New Year! It's done", Director Qian Da smiled and said, "You are a little fourth, play funny with us, but today we have dried this glass of wine, Brother National Day, it can be regarded as me and Mingyu's two younger brothers to toast you, I wish you a happy New Year", "Okay, I did it", Secretary General Jiang drank this glass like a cloud. "Eat vegetables and eat vegetables, this soft-shelled turtle tastes really different", Zhang Mingyu said while pouring wine, isn't the most famous soft-shelled turtle in Dongting Fishing Village, this practice retains the traditional practices of people by Dongting Lake, coupled with the local characteristics of Jiangcheng City, there is an endless stream of people who come to dine every day. In addition, Yuzhuang is next to the provincial government, and the business is thriving (Zhang Mingyu clearly remembers that from 99 to 2007, the eating and drinking style was quite strong, and it was not as restrained as the anti-corruption after 2012). "Brother National Day, this third glass of wine, I have something to ask for, do it first as respect", "Something, what's the matter?" Okay, I'll do it too", after finishing the wine, Zhang Mingyu told Jiang Guoqing about the arrears of Nanjiang Shipyard and the plan to cooperate, Jiang Guoqing laughed, "Brother, you are looking for the right person, before I retired from the army, I was the military representative of this factory, and now the military representative is my apprentice, although he has the rank of colonel, but he listens to me very much, there is no problem with this arrears, it is wrapped up in me, as for the next cooperation plan, it is your business, you go to talk, I will not participate", "Eh, Brother National Day, you don't participate, How can I do it", Zhang Mingyu hurriedly said, Qian Jin was also anxious, and said, "Brother National Day, you have to take care of it, otherwise, our little brothers are not practical", "Okay, okay, I will serve you, I promise, in the process of talking about cooperation, if you can't figure it out, I will come out to speak", "Okay, Brother National Day, I want you to say this", Zhang Mingyu poured wine, "Come on, give another glass to the eldest brother, thank the eldest brother for helping the younger brother get on the horse, and give the younger brother a ride", "Okay, it's dry, don't drink the wine anymore, there will be a meeting in the afternoon", Jiang Guoqing said, and Qian Jin also raised his glass and dried it. The two eldest brothers walked back to the office separately, and Zhang Mingyu drove back to the branch with satisfaction (at that time, drunk driving was not strictly investigated). Thank you, thank you, for allowing me to complete my unsuccessful career, and I will not let you down. Zhang Mingyu sang the famous song "The star is still the star, and the moon is still the moon...... The mule has a foal, the black chicken has become a colorful phoenix, oh oh, oh, why is the night in the mountain village so bright".
