Zhou Guoliang didn't guess Hong Zhendong's actions because he misjudged the standard of beauty.

Zhou Guoliang once had the honor to study and work with the two factory flowers of Sanjiang Machine Tool Factory, if only in terms of beauty, Zhou Guoliang admitted that He Bingbing is a well-deserved "peony", the king of flowers. And Xiao Ying in his mind is a peony flower that blooms in the most beautiful spring of the year, "The flower does not open its mouth, it is shy and bows its head, it is suspicious that the jade person is smiling, and it is affectionate and secret." This poem that compares the peony flower is the most appropriate way to show that Xiao Ying's veins are affectionate, beautiful, rich and elegant. With the two of them as the standard, it is difficult for Wu Yuehua in Zhou Guoliang's eyes to enter the list of beauties.

In fact, the standard of "beauty" varies from person to person. Hong Zhendong fell in love with Xia Minglan and was hindered by ethical relations; turned to pursue He Bingbing and touched a nose of ash; Later, he lost in the competition to pursue Xu Hui, Xia Minglan, He Bingbing and Xu Hui were all beauties in his mind.

Xia Minglan is charming, graceful, sexy and warm, smart and intelligent, talented, and capable. If you have to use flowers as a metaphor for people, Hong Zhendong is willing to compare Xia Minglan to a rose, as evidenced by Pi Rixiu's poem in the Tang Dynasty: "It is as strong as an orangutan dye, and as light as a swallow wanting to volley in the air." The poor drizzle is hard to win the day, and the light shines crimson and light red. ”

He Bingbing is chic and feminine, dignified and elegant, subtle and quiet, confident and high-minded, quick in thinking, and outstanding in courage. Hong Zhendong compared He Bingbing to the white lotus praised by the Tang poet Tortoise Meng: "The plain flower is more than a deceitful, this flower is really in Yaochi." There should also be hatred when no one feels it, and the moon dawns and the wind is clear. ”

He Bingbing's feelings in the minds of Hong Zhendong and Zhou Guoliang are completely different!

After encountering cold ice in the relationship, I met the sister of Xichuan who had a one-sided friend. Hong Zhendong was surprised.

The little girl who was gentle, small and exquisite, innocent and cute has now grown into a big girl. The black and white eyes are still sparkling, but a little more melancholy; The white and tender face fades away from the childishness of a girl, and the mature charm brings a little surprise and temptation. Wu Yuehua is like a spring flower that blooms warmly when the earth begins to melt and the snow melts. The golden flowers are pressed over the green and soft branches, as if the golden stars have descended on the earth, frequently sending him the good news of spring returning to the earth. "The cover is delicate and green, and the snow is cold and yellow. Spring is not self-sufficient, and thousands of flowers are fragrant. ”

Hong Zhendong's long-suppressed passion exploded, and as long as he had free time, he would come to chat with her. talked about how to raid the homes of landlords and capitalists and criticize stubborn principals in the passionate and fiery era; talk about how to fight the conservatives in a thrilling battle against the conservatives in the majestic revolutionary wave; Talk about how Wu Yuehua's parents were unfortunately killed in the rain of bullets and bullets in the fierce battle between the two factions. Since then, the fate has been bumpy and the future has been tortuous; Talking about Hong Zhendong's unfortunate emotional experience, he is still alone. The more they talked, the more they fell in love, and they actually sympathized with each other. The feeling of seeing each other late, the two wounded hearts suddenly got closer.

On this day, Hong Zhendong saw her thoughtfully: "What does Xiao Wu have in mind?" ”

Wu Yuehua looked depressed. "After coming to Sanjiang, Boss Li treated me well. Life has settled down. It stands to reason that I should be single-mindedly working. Repay your benefactor. But these days, I often dream that my parents are wandering in the Xichuan Cemetery, calling my name. I also dreamed of my cousin and blamed me for not going to him for anything. ”

Hong Zhendong comforted: "I think about it every day, and I dream about it at night." You think too much before you see your parents and cousin in your dreams. When you have a business trip in the future, I will accompany you to Xichuan to visit the graves of your parents, and it will be okay but your wishes. ”

Lu Xueping said: "I often hear my family Delin say. Yuehua was lonely and suffered a lot. It's pathetic. Let her go home later, and maybe she will find her cousin's whereabouts. I'm just worried that Miss Yuehua is not safe on the road, but now it's okay, with Comrade Hong to take care of her, we can all rest assured. ”

Hong Zhendong said: "What is your cousin's name, how old is this year, and what are the obvious characteristics." I want our sales staff to go to Datong to look for it, maybe there will be a miracle. ”

Wu Yuehua said: "My cousin's name is Tan Youren, eight years older than me, graduated from Xichuan University, and he has an obvious characteristic of being left-handed. ”

Hong Zhendong said: "This name is easy to find, and there will not be too many people with the same name and surname." With the good news, I'll tell you right away. ”

Wu Yuehua's face was happy. "I'll thank you first."

Hong Zhendong said: "Are you still polite to me?" ”

Lu Xueping looked at them and smiled. "Yes, it's all my own family, what are you polite about? Comrade Hong grabbed his strength and helped Yuehua find his cousin, Yuehua will definitely repay you well! ”

Wu Yuehua's face was slightly red, she bowed her head and was silent, her heart was sweet, and she secretly glanced at Hong Zhendong from time to time.

When Hong Zhendong returned to the company, he called Liu Mingquan and asked him to find Tan Youren no matter what he wanted. In fact, Hong Zhendong was more anxious to find Tan Youren than Wu Yuehua, and during this time, he had new thoughts about his life path.

Last Monday, Xia Minglan held an analysis meeting on the company's economic situation in the first half of the year.

Li Zhicheng, vice president of sales, said that the company's sales increased by 20 percent over the same period last year, of which multi-functional machine tools were in short supply, accounting for 30 percent of sales. After the total quality management of the enterprise is carried out, the quality awareness of departments, workshops and branches has been further strengthened, and the quality of new and old products is developing towards a high degree of excellence, and users generally respond well. The sales network in each region has been built, and the enthusiasm of sales staff is high, and it is predicted that the annual sales will reach more than 380 million, exceeding the company's target by 10%.

Then, He Bingbing made a report on the company's financial situation on behalf of Mr. Xia. Focus on the analysis of operating income, cost, profit three aspects. The sales revenue in the first half of the year was 185 million yuan, and the after-tax profit was 17.6 million yuan. Judging from the data, the predetermined indicators have been achieved. However, net profit was almost the same as last year due to a 10 percent increase in costs over the same period compared to last year. The increase in costs was due to a significant increase in the price of raw materials, personnel wage expenses, depreciation expense of fixed assets and interest on bank loans.

Xin Renjie, deputy general manager and chief engineer, reported on the implementation of technical transformation and new product design in the first half of the year, and showed everyone the gratifying prospects of old product modification, new product development and addition of high-precision processing equipment.

After the worst, Xia Minglan made a summary, affirmed that the employees of the whole plant have worked hard and achieved good results, and put forward measures to further "open source and reduce expenditure" in the second half of the year, saying that the company's management is confident to lead all employees to complete the annual task.

The cadres attending the meeting were encouraged by the gratifying situation, and all of them were overjoyed. Only Hong Zhendong muttered in his heart. He thought that it would be okay if his cousin started from the overall situation of uniting people's hearts and stimulating the enthusiasm of employees, and focused on the achievements made after the establishment of the company, but the ominous signals hidden behind these superficial data should not be taken lightly. I don't know if Cousin Lu Dao is aware of this hidden danger, whether it is public or private, he has the responsibility to remind her.

At this time, Xia Minglan, Xin Renjie and Li Zhicheng were discussing the business situation in the first half of the year.

Xia Minglan's face was gloomy. "The operating results in the first half of the year indicate that the company will face greater risks. In addition to the fact that the price increase in raw materials is an uncontrollable factor, the reasons for the increase in product costs are the consequences of the hasty decision made when forming a group company. ”

Li Zhicheng interjected: "I am also responsible for this issue, and I must also review it." ”

Xia Minglan continued: "Facts have proved that the opinions of some comrades at the beginning were correct. Assets have swelled dramatically, but the proportion of effective assets added is too small; The personnel has expanded rapidly, but the number of technical workers in the production line has not increased much, and the proportion of front-line production workers, technical personnel and second- and third-line management personnel has been seriously inverted. The working capital needed to expand production has risen by a large margin, and bank loans have increased, and some of the funds have been used to meet the additional wage expenditures, and not all of them have been used for production and operation.

Another issue is worth paying attention to, according to He Bingbing's report, the original machine tool factory has 24 loan guarantees for foreign units, involving an amount of more than 100 million yuan. Most of these guarantees are coordinated by the government, I myself have done this kind of thing, there are not many state-owned enterprises in Sanjiang City, the municipal government hopes that the machine tool factory will support other difficult state-owned enterprises, and the guarantee for their bank loans is one of the poverty alleviation measures.

He Bingbing once went to the guarantee enterprises to investigate, one third of them are operating well, one-third are barely maintaining, and the rest are difficult to operate, the ability to repay loans is insufficient, and the risk is greater. To this end, I have asked the Finance Department to pay close attention to the operating status of these enterprises and minimize risks. ”

Xin Renjie said: "The business situation is indeed not optimistic, and there is a certain distance from the original intention of forming a group company, fortunately, our leadership team has a clear understanding of this."

At present, the market sales situation is quite good, but the market is changing rapidly, once the product is unsalable, it will cause the capital chain to break, and all the problems will immediately emerge in a rush and be out of control! To talk about responsibility, should not be borne by Mr. Xia, Mr. Li, to this day, some leaders of the municipal government still think that the machine tool company is a piece of fat, should make more social contributions.

Although the machine tool company has become a joint-stock enterprise, most of the assets are state, or the government has the final say. I reflected to Vice Mayor Lin that it would not work like this, and the machine tool company would have to do it sooner or later!

Mr. Xia's proposal of 'opening up sources and reducing expenditures' is correct, and only in this way can we tide over the difficulties. ”

Xia Minglan pondered: "In the past, when I worked in the government department, I had a serious lack of understanding of enterprises, especially state-owned enterprises, and I was always accustomed to giving orders, and I did many things that did not conform to the actual situation of the enterprise and went against the law of the development of the enterprise itself.

The workers of the machine tool factory have worked hard and achieved remarkable results, but they also have the same problem of eating a big pot of rice as other state-owned enterprises. This time, the formation of a group company, the attraction of township and town enterprises, and the transformation into a joint-stock enterprise with a combination of state-owned shares and collective shares, could have taken this opportunity to change the common problems of state-owned enterprises. Unexpectedly, the company's big pot of rice is getting bigger and bigger, and the disadvantages are becoming more and more prominent, which has become a stumbling block to the development of the enterprise.

A large part of the measures we have put forward to open up sources and reduce expenditure are aimed at the malaise of eating in a big pot of rice, which will directly offend the interests of some workers, and the political work departments and trade unions are cooperating with each other to do a good job in the ideological work of the workers. ”

After the general manager's team further unified their thinking and understanding and coordinated the progress of the work, Xia Minglan went to report to Chairman Yan Shunping. (To be continued......)
