Chapter Seventy-Nine: Midnight Trial
Late at night, the office of the general manager of Jiaxin Salinization Company. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
When Wu Zhiqing arrived, there were already three people sitting there waiting for him in the office: Secretary Kan sat at the boss's desk, General Manager Ning reclined on the couch, and the Minister of Human Resources was "annoying" with a record book and pen in his hand, sitting in front of a single sofa with a small coffee table, bent down and ready to record at any time.
"Old Wu, come! Sit here! Seeing Wu Zhiqing, Ning Qian patted the sitting couch forward, stood up with a smile and greeted him.
"Hello leaders! I don't know if I came here in the middle of the night, what's the matter? Wu Zhiqing vaguely guessed the content of the leader's conversation with him, but he was not sure, so he asked casually.
"Looking for you, in fact, there is nothing special!" Ning Xiangqian smiled all over his face, and said in a pretended relaxed tone: "Lao Wu, you know, too many things have happened in the company recently, which has made me and Secretary Kan have been having a headache. Thinking that you are an old employee of the company, you have been working in the front line since entering the company, and you are a representative of employees for many years, both at the branch level and at the head office level, it can be said that you have a deep employee base. ”
"You? Ask me? Wu Zhiqing pointed to his nose with a surprised expression on his face.
Wu Zhiqing is not stupid, he knows the meaning behind the question, and to put it bluntly, he suspects that he is the object of suspicion!
"Brainstorm! Brainstorming! Secretary Kan explained with a smile.
"I may have to disappoint the two leaders, I'm a stupid person, I'm afraid this matter won't help the two leaders." Wu Zhiqing shook his head and replied.
"Nonsense! How can you be considered stupid? Ning Qianqian waved his hand at Wu Zhiqingyi, and praised in an affirmative tone: "Your literary talent, Secretary Kan and I have heard of it for a long time, if you are stupid, there will be no smart people in Jiaxin Salinization Company!" ”
"Yes, yes!" Secretary Kan also followed Ning Xiangqian's words and said: "Comrade Wu Zhiqing, I often hear the leaders below mention you, saying that you are high-spirited, no matter what position you are in, you can correct your mentality and do your job well. ”
Wu Zhiqing was silent. The helplessness of the official career actually allowed him to improve his ideological realm in the mouth of the leader, which shows that "the art of leadership is the art of speaking" does have its truth. The same thing, from different mouths, will receive different effects, difficult problems may be simple because of a certain sentence, simple problems may also be complicated because of a certain sentence, which is also an important basis for evaluating a leader's management ability.
"Old Wu, I came to you today, I don't mean anything else, and you don't have any worries about this." Seeing that Wu Zhiqing lowered his head and didn't say anything, Ning Qianqian enlightened: "Speak freely!" Don't keep it! ”
"I don't have any worries!" No matter how high the clogs are also clogs, when the leader praises you, you must keep enough sobriety, and you must ask for something from others. Thinking of this, Wu Zhiqing caught up again: "Wu is not afraid of crooked shadows, and he has never done anything wrong, what is there to worry about?" Two leaders, just ask if you have anything to say, Wu promises to know everything, and say everything! ”
"Good! I just like cheerful people like you! Ning Xiangqian patted Wu Zhiqing's back affectionately and asked, "Old Wu, have you heard of what happened in the company recently?" ”
"Are you talking about the staff reunion?" Wu Zhiqing looked at Ning Xiangqian, and there was a teasing element in his tone: "Yes! I'm not an alien. ”
"So...... What are your thoughts on this? What Ning Xiangqian needs is results, and as for the attitude of his subordinates towards him, he doesn't care too much.
"It's none of your business, hang high! I don't have any opinion on anything about Schwab Salinization! Wu Zhiqing replied directly and crisply.
What happened at the workers' congress last year made Wu Zhiqing worry that he had been bitten by a snake for ten years and was afraid of the well rope, and since that year, he has realized that keeping his mouth shut is indeed the supreme magic weapon to stay away from right and wrong.
"Alas! Lao Wu, I just praised you for your high ideological awareness, this attitude is not like your style! Secretary Kan said with a smile Wu Zhiqing.
"Secretary Kan, don't embarrass me, I really don't know anything, and I don't have any ideas." Wu Zhiqing's attitude was calm, and he still kept me: "If I have to have an idea, my idea is to look forward to the age of retreating as soon as possible, and leave this suffocating place as soon as possible." ”
"I can't imagine that Jiaxin Salinization Company makes Lao Wu so disgusted!" Ning Xiangqian smiled awkwardly and asked, "Old Wu, do you say that there is any place in this world that does not make people feel suffocated?" ”
"Nanshan." Wu Zhiqing replied without thinking.
"Nanshan?" Ning Xiangqian was curious: "Where is it?" ”
"Picking chrysanthemums under the east fence, leisurely seeing Nanshan, how? Haven't you heard of this place? Wu Zhiqing wanted to laugh, but his face didn't show it: "Ah! Being able to live Tao Yuanming's kind of quiet and comfortable life, not burdened by the world, is the life I yearn for. ”
"Lao Wu, have you seen through the red dust?" Ning Xiangqian heard that Wu Zhiqing was talking angrily, he was teasing himself, and if he put it in the past, he would definitely be furious, but thinking that the result he wanted today had not been obtained, he chose to swallow his anger, so he pretended to be sympathetic and answered: "Ah! Don't even say it, I think like that from time to time! It's a pity that people are in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves! ”
"Mr. Ning, don't make fun of me!" Wu Zhiqing laughed at himself: "You are the general manager of Jiaxin Salinization Company, I, just a grass farmer, how dare I have the same idea as you!"
"Alas! You can't say that! Ning Xiangqian waved his hand at Wu Zhiqingyi and said: "Old Wu, don't look at me as the general manager of Jiaxin Salinization Company, on the surface, the scenery is infinite, calling for wind and rain, but in fact, you don't know the sourness in your heart. Do you think the company is always so good? Organize production, worry about safety; Contact sales, beg dad to tell mom; Straighten out the production relations within the enterprise and resolve the contradictions and resistance outside the enterprise; The price increase and fall of the means of production, the company's future development plan, which thing is worry-free? Not only me, but also several leaders here, who of them is on time and on time? Which one doesn't come early and leave late, working hard? Sometimes when I am busy and tired, I will think, there is no difference between me and employees, in the final analysis, I am a part-time worker in a state-owned enterprise, is it worth it for me to work so hard every day? But when I think of thousands of people up and down the company waiting for us to pay wages and eat, no matter how tired I am, I don't dare to slack off, and I have to grit my teeth and rush forward! ”
"General Manager Ning is so right!" Secretary Kan never forgot his responsibilities, and echoed with deep emotion: "What kind of spirit is this? That's selfless dedication! This is the spirit of ownership embodied in the leaders of Jiaxin Salinization Company! If our employees can have this kind of thinking of leadership, our company will definitely be a harmonious relationship and unlimited potential of the enterprise! I also believe that under the guidance of this spirit of selflessness, it is not difficult for the company to achieve the slogan of rushing out of Asia and going to the world! Lao Wu, do you think what I said makes sense? ”
"That makes so much sense!" Although Wu Zhiqing has his own personality, he never brushes the face of the leader, and replied with a meaningful smile: "If everyone in the company reached this state, I think the situation of Jiaxin Salinization Company would not be what it is today!" ”
Thinking of Ning Xiangqian saying that he was also a part-time worker in a state-owned enterprise, Wu Zhiqing's heart was particularly uncomfortable. Ning Xiangqian is not a few years older than Wu Zhiqing, thinking that he is now the CEO of Jiaxin Salinization Company, and he is only a small worker at the bottom of Jiaxin Salt Chemical Company, one in the sky and the other on the ground, which cannot be compared.
This made Wu Zhiqing suddenly think of an allusion, when Li Si, the prime minister of Daqin, was making cloth clothes, he once went to the thatched house to pay tribute, and saw that there were rats stealing feces to eat, these rats saw people coming to the toilet, and fled far away, the behavior of the rats made Li Si feel a lot of emotion, he thought of those rats in the official warehouse, he could eat if he wanted, and he could leave if he wanted to, so he didn't have to hide and hide like this, and he cowered. After some thought, Li Si came to a conclusion that people live in different environments, and their ambitions are different, so he decided to go out to the mountains to work, this job does not matter, Li Si became a capable minister under Qin Shi Huang, under one person, above ten thousand people.
There were many people who worked under Qin Shi Huang and his old man, but there were only a few who could stand out, and this was the difference in the fate of the workers.
"Therefore, if the company wants to have a good development, it must have a stable and harmonious environment!" Ning Xiangqian struck while the iron was hot: "Old Wu, Secretary Kan and I came to you so late, can you understand our hardships?" ”
"Your troubles?" Wu Zhiqing was a little confused, glanced at Ning Xiangqian, then at Secretary Kan, shook his head and said, "Alas! No! Mr. Ning, Secretary Kan, I really don't understand what you mean, and I don't ...... I can't quite understand ......"
"Forget it! Lao Wu, don't pretend to be confused, Mr. Ning and I already know everything! Secretary Kan said with a meaningful smile: "What do you think, what conditions, you might as well explain it clearly in front of me and General Manager Ning, what is it difficult for everyone to sit down and talk?" ”
"yes, yes! Brother, there are no outsiders here today, what do you think, you might as well say it directly! Ning Xiangqian hugged Wu Zhiqing's shoulders affectionately, with a flattering smile on his face.
"Wait a minute! Wait a minute! Wu Zhiqing raised his right hand, and his expression became even more confused: "Two leaders, you said that I was pretending to be confused, I really don't understand what you mean?" ”
"You don't understand what I mean? How is this possible? This time, Secretary Kan wrinkled his head.
"No impossible! I really don't understand! Wu Zhiqing shook his head and replied affirmatively.
"I really don't understand?" Ning Xiangqian asked again.
"I don't understand!" Wu Zhiqing replied again.
"So this is what happened...... Didn't you organize it? Secretary Kan stretched his neck to stare at Wu Zhiqing, and his tone could not be dismissed.
"I don't understand what you're referring to?" Wu Zhiqing asked rhetorically.
"Hey! It's the matter of the staff gathering to make trouble! Ning Qianqian simply made his words clear.
"Huh! Leader, you are so exalted to me! Listening to Ning Xiangqian's words, Wu Zhiqing smiled bitterly: "You don't want to think about it, if I, Wu Zhiqing, can I have that energy, will I still be a little worker who has achieved nothing?" ”
"Lao Wu, I and Secretary Kan have heard of your talent, the company did not use you, it is the leader's mistake, here, on behalf of the leadership of Jiaxin Salinization Company, I review to you!" Ning Xiangqian was unwilling, and continued to probe tentatively: "But what about this matter, you will do it, there is no need to hide it, Secretary Kan and I will not embarrass you!" ”
"Mr. Ning, I really didn't do anything! If you really think so, then I am even more wronged than Dou E! Wu Zhiqing cried with a sad face and an innocent expression.
"Old Wu, don't play hide and seek with me and Mr. Ning anymore!" Secretary Kan didn't believe that Wu Zhiqing was telling the truth, and believed that Wu Zhiqing was a coward who had the courage to do things but didn't dare to admit it, and still used words to accuse him: "You have to believe that there is no impermeable wall in this world, and what you have done has been betrayed by the people around you. ”
"Which bastard sued the black state? Secretary Kan, you called this person over, and I want to confront him face to face! Secretary Kan's words made Wu Zhiqing's mentality a little out of control, and he scolded unabashedly.
"Who said that, I can't tell you this!" Secretary Kan is not impatient, on the contrary, Wu Zhiqing's performance is exactly what he wants to see, a person is most likely to show his feet in a gaffe. Secretary Kan continued to simmer slowly: "Old Wu, Mr. Ning and I know that this is not your intention, you are also being used as a gun, as long as you are willing to say who the main messenger behind the scenes is, Mr. Ning and I promise you that we will never hold you accountable, and we will reward you heavily!" ”
"yes, yes! As long as you are willing to tell the mastermind behind the scenes, I will ask Manager Hu of the Salt Production Branch to promote you to the section supervisor tomorrow! Ning Xiangqian also lost no time in throwing a lucrative bait.
"Director? You just let me be the chairman, and I don't know! Wu Zhiqing's face was swollen red because of anger, and he said loudly: "General Manager Ning, Secretary Kan, I solemnly tell the two of you that I Wu Zhiqing has not been involved in this matter from beginning to end, believe it or not!" ”
After speaking, Wu Zhiqing lowered his head and stopped talking.
There was a brief silence.
"Good! I believe you are a good comrade! Ning Xiangqian patted Wu Zhiqing's shoulder, smiled and comforted: "Old Wu, if you don't do it, you don't do it, why are you so angry?" ”
"I'm not angry!" Wu Zhiqing sneered, turned his face away and said: "Don't be happy to wronged people like this, you are still the leader!" ”
"Old Wu, don't be angry! Don't be angry! Secretary Kan also put on a smiling face and said: "Mr. Ning and I are having trouble sleeping for this matter these days, not because we are helpless, we will not make this decision to use words to trick you, don't take it to heart." ”
"Yes is yes, no is no, the big husband dares to act, I'm not like some people who are scheming, they will only make things bad behind their backs!" The words of the two leaders made Wu Zhiqing feel a little better, and he said bluntly.
"I like your character!" Ning nodded forward in praise. Then he asked: "Lao Wu, although you didn't do this thing, can you help me and Secretary Kan analyze and analyze, what do you think the organizer's motivation is?" ”
"I don't know!" Wu Zhiqing remembered the silent proverb again, and directly closed the floodgates of dialogue.
"Alas, think about it again, don't be in a hurry to answer!" Secretary Kan saw that Wu Zhiqing was resistant, but he still hoped to find out something, and asked casually: "Old Wu, do you recall that no one has contacted you on the phone recently, hoping that you will participate in the rally or something?" ”
"Nope!" Wu Zhiqing shook his head and replied.
"What about text messages? Has anyone texted your phone? Secretary Kan asked again.
"I don't have a cell phone, I can't receive any text messages!" Wu Zhiqing continued to shake his head and answer.
"Old Wu, what age is this? Will you not have a cell phone? The Minister of Human Resources, who had been keeping his head in the records, asked.
"The wages are low, and you can't afford to buy them, can't you?" Wu Zhiqing has never had a good impression of Tao Renxian, and he replied angrily.
"Old Wu, what you said is inappropriate!" Ning Xiangqian took over the conversation with a smile and said: "The workers of Jiaxin Salinization Company all shout that their wages are low, are our wages really low?" 55,000 per capita, which is not a small number in the province and even in the whole country! ”
Per capita! It's per capita again! Wu Zhiqing has participated in many workers' congresses, and each time the general manager's work report will use the word "per capita" to summarize the income of employees, and the income of employees will increase by 10% or even 20% every year. However, when these ten percent or even dozens of rises are reflected in their own salary books, they are still last year's money this year, and the money of the year before last year, Wu Zhiqing can never understand how much his salary is "per capita", but the general manager's work report should not lie, the company's total salary is indeed increasing every year, so, who is the average person who has their own money?
As long as he is a person with a little brain, as long as he is a person who pays attention to observation, Wu Zhiqing's question is not without answers: the people who can "per capita" your banknotes are the people who talk about the interests of employees all day long, and those who claim to be leaders and are in charge of employees' salaries.
From the top to the middle, from food and clothing to housing and transportation, the gap between leaders and workers is widening day by day. When you're in debt for your first home, you already have two or three houses; When you are still riding a bicycle or a battery car and rushing to work, people are already playing motorcycles and cars; People are wearing branded clothes that cost more than 1,000 yuan, and you wear work clothes when you go to work, and you still wear work clothes when you get off work. Of course, these are just appearances, appearances that everyone's eyes can't avoid. The sudden wealth created by the current situation makes most of the small leaders unable to restrain their flamboyant and comparative personalities, and the employees who are second-class citizens can only be reduced to numb spectators.
In fact, even if there is no appearance, it is not difficult to find clues from real life. Since the implementation of the vague wage system, the salary schedule has become a rare thing, and occasionally it is sent down to sign and walk away, and careful people can find a clue from it. You will find that the salaries of people above the middle level are increasing every year, at a rate of hundreds or hundreds. Sometimes it goes up two or three times a year. Seeing this situation, most workers will have some feelings, why do leaders mention the matter of workers' wages every year, but workers' wages always fail to rise every year? Why does the leader never mention a salary increase for himself, while the leader's salary increases every year?
When it comes to raising workers' wages, the anger of the employees will not be in one place. Probably because their wages have risen too high, they always prevaricate their subordinates on a per capita basis in their conscience, and the senior executives will also release the wind at the workers' congress at the beginning of each year to say that they want to raise wages for employees, and when it comes to wage increases, they will always take into account the huge size of employees and the restrictions on total wages, and set the tone that the average person can only rise by thirty or twenty yuan. The increase is not much, as long as it can rise, it is a good thing, employees are always happy to hear the news, although they are reaping disappointment every year, but it is better than not mentioning it. It's like smearing sugar on the tip of your nose, you can't lick it for the time being, but after all, it's there, bread will be there, milk will be there, as long as the company doesn't go out of business, employees believe that the wage increase will be implemented one day.
The rest of the days are just looking forward to! Hopefully! From the beginning of the year, to the end of the year, the process is lively: first of all, the labor department to get the plan, then the branches held a meeting to study and discuss, then the trade union organized employee representatives to listen to the voice of the employees, and then the company level issued an opinion form to the majority of employees to solicit opinions on wage reform, and finally waited for the high-level clapper to sign the implementation. Wages have not risen, the passion of employees has also been tossed to a place of chicken feathers, if there is a small episode such as unsalable salt, such things as wage increases will be put on hold indefinitely, if there are employees asked about the leadership of the matter, the reason for the leadership is also high-sounding: the company has no efficiency, what to raise wages?!
Employees' salary increases are put on the agenda every year, and the expected results are not available every year; The leader's salary has never been raised, but it can quietly rise year by year. What is the reason for this? The workers are not all nerds, and there is one who shrewdly sees the crux of the inability to raise the wages of employees: it is because the workers are not united and too weak that these so-called leaders dare to be unscrupulous and do whatever they want year after year. It's just a grievance to think about! If you work hard every day in the morning and return late at night, but your salary is less than a fraction of that of the leader, or even a few tenths, is your contribution inferior to others? Those who started by playing tricks and didn't do a single thing are paid well; Is it because your own ability is inferior to others? Those guys who have no talent and no virtue and only rely on sloppy slapping horses occupy high positions. How sad is it?
If there is injustice in your heart, you must have a channel for excretion, and the way to excrete is of course not to go home and beat your wife and children, because your wife and children are not bullying you. Where to get angry, where to vent, it is definitely not okay to beat the leader, it is illegal to do so; It seems to be a way to find a leader to reason, but if no one else jumps, you can jump alone, and it is difficult to make a sound, and it is difficult to become a climate. What to do? Only by scolding the eighteenth generation ancestors of the leaders behind their backs, scolding them for being disobedient and unfilial, scolding them for eating and eating more than others, and scolding them for deducting employees' wages to buy medicine. What you can do after scolding is to slack off at work, waste wantonly, and vent the resentment in your heart.
This kind of behavior is the idea of the majority of people, and there are also a few restless and disciplined people who secretly encourage everyone to rise up and "make trouble" and fight for their legitimate rights and interests.
There have been several incidents like this one in Jiaxin, but the scale is too small, and none of them have succeeded.
Through a few troubles, Wu Zhiqing has gained a lot of insight and seen a lot of faces. is also in the disadvantaged group, when someone stands up and calls on everyone to go to the leader together to fight for their own benefits, some people choose to retreat, this part of the people's mind is afraid that the leader will see themselves go with the flow, and will give themselves small shoes to wear in the future; Some people choose to be on the sidelines, they hope that someone will go to the leader for trouble, but this person will never be themselves, they just want to sit under the big tree with peace of mind and wait, the dates will fall to the ground, they will have their own share, the dates do not land, and their future will not have any impact; Some people choose to whistleblow, just take advantage of this opportunity to get close to the leader and prove that they are the leader's intimate person.
If you don't explode in silence, you die in silence. In the complex mentality environment of Jiaxin Salinization Co., Ltd., Wu Zhiqing believes that the final result can only be the latter.
"Since General Manager Ning said that the wages of workers are not low, then it is not low!" Wu Zhiqing didn't want to argue with the leader, since Ning Xiangqian made a foreign appearance at the workers' congress, he became a stinky shit in the eyes of the branch leader, and from that time on, he decided to keep his mouth shut.
"Lao Wu, you recall carefully, the last time you made trouble in the conference room and gathered in the station square, did you see the people from your workshop team participate?" Annoying people didn't feel ashamed of being bored just now in front of the leader, he put his pen on the notebook and asked.
"I wasn't there twice, what do you remember?" Wu Zhiqing didn't want to fall into the trap set in the disgusting words, and the resistance became more and more difficult to restrain himself, so he answered very urgently.
"Lao Wu, General Manager Ning and I believe that you are a good comrade!" Secretary Kan saw that there was nothing to ask from Wu Zhiqing's body, he and Ning Qianqian looked at each other, and decided to terminate today's questioning, so he concluded: "If the employees of our Jiaxin Salinization Company can stand firm like you, do not follow the trend, do not spread rumors, and concentrate on work, then General Manager Ning and I will not be so tired of doing our work as we are today!" I picked you up tonight for questioning, don't think about it too much, General Manager Ning and I are purely routine, and I don't doubt your meaning. ”
"Yes, yes!" Ning Xiangqian echoed with deep emotion: "Jiaxin Salinization Company needs a down-to-earth and good comrade like you, but you can't usually ignore what is going on outside the window, and you still have to care about the company's affairs." Lao Wu, after you go back, if there is any news, you must communicate with me and Secretary Kan in time, as long as you can provide valuable clues, Secretary Kan and I will not treat you badly! Also, tonight is not for you to come in vain, I will ask Minister Tao to order you to be admitted to two night shifts, which is a little financial compensation! ”
From the bait of the section supervisor to the compensation of two night shifts, the gap between valuable clues and no clues is big! Coming out of the general manager's office, Wu Zhiqing looked at his watch, it was already five o'clock in the morning, thinking that he was going to work early today, and he had to rush back when he got home, so he went straight to work. If you want to enter the workshop, you must first pass by the office building of the salt branch, when Wu Zhiqing was walking with his head down, he heard someone upstairs whispering his name, he looked up and saw that it was none other than Manager Hu, the top leader of the salt branch. (To be continued.) )
