Chapter 189 Change Three
waited until a quarter past seven to arrive Zhang Xingwu. Li Zhibin was very happy, brought him the bottle of wine to the table, saw the name of the wine, and then saw the salt-boiled peanuts and braised phoenix feet on the table, Zhang Xingwu smiled, "Not bad." Got a heart......"
"The director has won the award. You can order......" Li Zhibin nudged the beautifully printed menu in front of Zhang Xingwu, "I've been thinking about inviting you to a meal for a long time, I know that you are not uncommon with this, just to find an excuse to express my gratitude to you...... In addition, there are some things that I can't figure out, and I want to ask for advice in person."
Zhang Xingwu didn't answer, and ordered two very ordinary dishes to the waiter waiting on the side: back pot meat and mapo tofu, "Okay, enough"
"Don't save me money" Li Zhibin said with a smile, "Please ask the old leader today, the budget given by Xiao Chen is enough"
"You know my tastes, and you should also realize that what you like is not necessarily expensive. With this bottle of wine as the base, the dishes don't matter" Zhang Xingwu looked at the furnishings of the private room again, "You are still tender, in fact, a restaurant with a good hardware environment may not taste good, and the real delicacy is hidden in an inconspicuous alley." It used to be a minimum consumption here, but now it's gone, right? β
"No, don't you see that there are so few people? Secluded, good for a few good friends to chat and talk to......"
"Tell me, what do you mean?"
Li Zhibin smiled and pointed to the wine on the table, "I don't know if it suits the director's taste?" β
"You have changed, you are hypocritical, in fact, you know my hobby" Zhang Xingwu pointed to the bottle of Jian Nanchun. Unlike the tastes of most people in Pingquan, Zhang Xingwu prefers koji wine, especially Jiannanchun. Li Zhibin remembers his hobbies, which always make him happy.
Li Zhibin opened the wine and filled it for Zhang Xingwu, the wine glass was changed by him to the waiter, the previous small wine glass was too shallow, he knew Zhang Xingwu's habits. I don't like to use a large glass and prefer to dry it in a small glass, which makes the wine glass a requirement.
"Director, a lot of things have happened in the General Manager's Office recently...... You know, I'm a little confused, and I'm not very good at it...... I'm afraid of losing your people, so I want to find a quiet place to ask the old leader. I'm really very happy to have you here, I'll toast you first, you know how much I drink, I can't afford to accompany you. I'm sure I'm going to dry this glass, and then you're free to drink it until you're happy," he said, and drank the wine in the glass.
Zhang Xingwu also did it, "I mentioned Chen Yan just now, when will you drink the wedding wine of the two of you?" β
"The date is not yet decided. This year will definitely not be" Li Zhibin shook his head involuntarily, "I didn't even have a house, I thought that renting a house would last for two years, but she didn't agree." You have to buy it, even if it's second-hand. After watching the two, they were not satisfied...... "Let's talk about it, and give Zhang Xingwu full again."
"Let Wang Jingfu help you. He's well-informed there, so he'll take care of this," Zhang Xingwu took a sip and sandwiched a piece of meat, "Hmm." It's OK. With your current status, he still doesn't do it upside down? β
"How dare I......"
"Yes, it's better to be cautious. So be it. Let me tell him, the old king owes me several favors, let him pay it back once."
"Then thank you to the old leader"
"What is this? I've heard about the general manager's business, just because of this? β
"Well, I think Mr. Tao has changed......
"It's getting bad?"
"It's a bit ......"
"Xiao Li, I recommended you to talk to the big boss at the beginning, do you know why?"
"That's the director's love ......"
"You don't have a good chair. The boss is not satisfied, and it is not only your job that is smashed. Fortunately, you can, I didn't see the wrong person...... You are also an old man, and you have been with Mr. Tao for half a year, can you summarize what is the difference between Mr. Tao and Mr. Song? β
How many times have I thought about this question, and I have discussed it with Chen Yan privately I don't know how many times, "How to say it, they are not the same kind of people at all, Mr. Song has, Mr. Tao does not have it, Mr. Song does not have it, Mr. Tao has ......"
This conclusion is also incisive. But not exactly. One thing I think is the same, know what it is? β
"I don't really know about that...... I hope the director will give me advice."
"Eat vegetables. If it were someone else, I wouldn't talk about that. For our industry, it is taboo to comment on the leaders behind the scenes...... Xiao Li, I regard you as the most proud apprentice in my life, and I believe that you will make achievements that surpass me...... As for me, in the end, it's best to add a deputy chief engineer, it doesn't seem so easy now, but you're different, let's put it mildly, the future is immeasurable, I hope you can seize the opportunity and start and finish well......"
"Director, I also want to say something from my heart, since I followed you, I have regarded you as my teacher and elder. I don't dare to compare with the director...... You just said that the two of them have something in common, but I really don't see it. I think that Mr. Tao and Mr. Song really don't have a little bit of the same......"
"You still have little experience," Zhang Xingwu took another drink and praised, "It's really good wine!" This bottle is a few years old, isn't it new? β
"You're just high! This bottle of wine was requested for me by my father from an old friend of his, and it is said that he has been saving it for thirty years...... Director, of course I'm far behind you, and it's a luxury to catch up with you in this life."
"There is no need to be humble. Excessive modesty is pride. As for me, this life has been finalized, there is not much development, and the burden of the finance department is too heavy for me...... But you're different, there's still a long way to go...... Just now I said that Mr. Tao and Mr. Song have one thing in common, that is, the desire to control power! You have a say in this, think about it, is what I said the truth? β
Li Zhibin was stunned, "You say that...... There are really similarities" Zhang Xingwu is right, think about it carefully, Tao Tang, like his predecessor, has a strong requirement for holding power, and he can't tolerate subordinates to make ghosts.
"But the result is different. Mr. Song has been working for nearly four years, not to mention his results, do you think he is in control? Compared to Mr. Tao, how is it now? β
This time, Li Zhibin replied very simply, "He has not reached the height of Mr. Tao, absolutely not." When Mr. Song was there, Mr. Han and Mr. Li were not so obedient. But since Mr. Luo's accident, I see that the vice presidents have been obedient......"
"That's just a faΓ§ade. I think that even if there is no Luo Chong's business, Mr. Tao is still in control of the situation. You know why? β
"You mean that Mr. Tao has deep roots on it?"
"I don't think so. Xiao Li, I know you love to read miscellaneous books, do you know Lin Zexu's motto? β
"'The sea is inclusive, and tolerance is great. The wall is a thousand people, and if there is no desire, it is rigid'"
"Understood?"
"I seem to understand ......"
"Mr. Tao may not be inclusive, but if he has no desire, he is just well-deserved! I have been working in the factory office for 20 years. I've been with several leaders, like Mr. Tao is so self-disciplined, no! This is a realm that not everyone can do. You can say that this is fame, Xiao Li, when you sit in that chair, you will know how difficult it is to restrain your desires...... Mr. Tao has no flaws, why did the vice presidents wrestle with him? This is where Song Yue can't compare with Tao. Song Yue always wanted to use power to control power, and learn the so-called imperial mind of pulling one faction and fighting another, after all, he fell behind. The greatest conspiracy is the absence of conspiracy. Surely you've read martial arts novels, right? Do you know what is the highest level of describing martial arts? β
"No tricks to win?"
"It's better to say that one force will drop ten! No matter how many tricks you learn, you must have the strength to support it, and the tricks without strength are useless? In officialdom, no flaws are the greatest strength! Look at the big people who are dissatisfied with Mr. Tao now, what can they do? All that's left is to spread some boring peachy rumors, which make people laugh just thinking about it! Moving to the superiors, the most ruthless thing is the economic problem, once it is confirmed. In the current situation, the gods can't save you. The second is political performance, even if those boring rumors reach above, who will seriously investigate this? It's inferior! But there's no other way......"
Li Zhibin was silent.
"Let me tell you about the finance department. It was yesterday. The budget for October was beaten back, and my face didn't matter, and Mr. Han was a little unbearable. What you may not know is that budget management has been emphasized since August. No expenditure not included in the budget shall be charged. The budget level of our factory is like that, which has stumped several departments, and the most difficult is the financial mouth. You must know that the finance department has put a lot of effort into balancing the budget. I'm a layman, and Mr. Han doesn't rely on me, but those connoisseurs can't stand it, Mr. Han is amazing, right? Because of extra-budgetary expenses, he was speechless by Mr. Tao at the regular business meeting! β
As early as June, the General Manager's Office redrafted the "Meeting System" according to Tao Tang's instructions, and included it in the compilation of the company's system, clarifying the meetings at different levels and strictly implementing them. Among them, the regular business meeting is a meeting that must be held every Monday afternoon, requiring the company's leaders, general assistants, deputy chief engineers and several administrative leaders of the main management departments to participate, and the deputy general manager will evaluate the completion of last week's key work, and arrange the key work next week, and the cycle repeats. But Li Zhibin was not qualified to attend this meeting, so he didn't know the story of what happened at the regular business meeting, but he heard some rumors that the atmosphere of the meeting was very tense and the leaders were in danger.
"Mr. Han has been trained?"
"Mr. Han is not the only one who is being trained? Almost all of the vice presidents have been trained, let alone the heads of departments. The unfinished work must clearly explain the reasons and the measures taken, and you say that the reasons are objective? I'm sorry, the operating difficulties of the Red Star Factory are the biggest objectivity, don't improve it if you co-author? Everyone is afraid of being chased and asked, and it is difficult to justify it after asking at several levels. Chang Wenhai is dedicated, right? Because of the problem of rationalization suggestions and rewards in lean management, I couldn't stand the miserable situation of being trained by Mr. Tao. Zhou is always an old qualification, right? Because of the 'three violations' problem, Mr. Tao was mercilessly reprimanded, and Mr. Li was the same, the task of collecting money last month was not completed, and he didn't want Liu Shulin's explanation at all, and directly held Li Luo accountable! For many years, I have never seen Li Luo so cautious and compromised...... Xiao Li, you followed Mr. Tao, didn't you notice the changes in the company in the past two months? β
"What do you mean?" There must be changes, but Li Zhibin can't summarize the biggest changes for a while.
"If I want to see it, the leaders are having a hard time...... The big guy had to be careful to avoid being grabbed by Mr. Tao's pigtails, where did he dare to be as gentle and martial as in the past...... You are not qualified to participate in that meeting, Zhu Ning has been reprimanded several times for poor supervision, I think if the situation does not change, Zhu Ning will definitely be finished, and he still wants to take over my class, it would be good to keep his current position......"
"But the people below are saying that Mr. Tao is good......" Li Zhibin couldn't help but speak for Tao Tang, "Mr. Tao is dedicated to the good of the company, and no one can deny this"
"No one denies this! But offending officials is not the same as offending the people. The people said he was a good fart? Moreover, the crowd that scolded him was not necessarily less than those who praised him. Cleaning up off-duty workers and dismissing temporary workers will harm the interests of the people. You say you saved a lot of money for this, where did all that money go? Do you give everyone a long salary or a bonus? What's more, when did the inspection cadres respect the opinions of the common people? β
"Going to be inspected above?"
"Inspections are the norm. If you don't come now, you will come sooner or later" Zhang Xingwu sighed, "Let's go back to your original question, after saying so much, you should know why you feel that Mr. Tao has changed, and you will know what you should do...... In many cases, only what you realize is truly understood."
Li Zhibin felt that he had really gained a lot from this meal. (To be continued.) )
