Chapter 142: Not a soft persimmon
The famous Hao Wuliang was held down, and the other two employees who were as dissatisfied with their work as him dispelled the urge to ask Fang Hanmin for an explanation, and also settled down to work.
Resolving contradictions at the grassroots level and sharing worries and solving problems for higher-level leaders, I have to say that Jiao Tiehui has done a very competent job in this regard.
I don't know if it's boring in the office, at ten o'clock in the morning, the chief engineer Lao Xia suddenly had a whim, planned to go to the grassroots level, and let his old subordinate, that is, Lao Xue, the director of the chief engineering office, go with him.
"In addition to production equipment, grassroots units are front-line workers, what is there to see? Besides, there are many positions in a production workshop, two or three thousand people, what can you see? Lao Xue obviously didn't want to go down to the grassroots.
"You don't have to go to the production workshop at the grassroots level! Isn't there a technology center under the Technology Division? Let's go there and have a look. ”
Because the Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory does not have a deputy director in charge of technology, the chief engineer Lao Xia has some technical management functions, and he can be called the head of the technical department.
There are no major technical issues to communicate, Fang Hanmin has not reported to Mr. Xia for more than half a year, and a few days ago, Lao Xia learned from private channels that the technology center has recycled the waste catalyst replaced in the second workshop, but Fang Hanmin did not report to him in this regard. The combination of these two factors inevitably makes Lao Xia think, is it possible that Fang Hanmin is full of wings and doesn't take him, the technical director of the whole factory, in his eyes?
Mr. Xia and Lao Xue came to the waste catalyst recycling site, and the workers were not familiar with them, so they only buried their heads in their work, and no one greeted them.
After asking some questions of interest in individual positions, Mr. Xia and Lao Xue left the catalyst preparation section, "This is the newly built experimental center, right?" Let's go inside and see what's going on inside! ”
Entering the gate, going up the stairs to the second floor, I happened to meet Fang Hanmin coming out of a laboratory, Fang Hanmin's eyes were sharp, and he saw the two leaders from afar, and he greeted them loudly, "Mr. Xia, Director Xue, welcome to the experimental center to inspect the work!" ”
"We don't inspect the work, just go down and walk around, just went to the waste catalyst recovery site to see, I didn't think you had already done it, but the factory didn't know about it." Lao Xia said lukewarmly.
Fang Hanmin heard clearly, Lao Xia not only did not encourage the work of the technical department, but with a little blame, he hurriedly explained: "Mr. Xia, you have also seen that the recycling of waste catalysts is just a small matter, we feel that the factory leaders have a lot of important things to consider, and it is not worth paying attention to this kind of small matter. ”
"No matter how big or small he is, you have to let the factory leaders know!" Sure enough, he didn't report to the factory leaders at that time, at least let Mr. Xia pick it up.
Under the leadership of Fang Hanmin, the technical department (including the technology center) can make a lot of achievements in the work every year, for matters that have a greater impact, of course, Fang Hanmin has to report to the factory leaders, including Mr. Xia, but for such a small matter as waste catalyst recycling, he feels that there is no need to report in detail, so as not to distract the energy of the plant leaders.
When the leaders are in a good mood, Fang Hanmin's approach can be understood by them, but if someone thinks that this is deliberately ignoring the factory leaders, Fang Hanmin is also speechless.
Indeed, reporting to the leader regardless of major or minor matters not only makes people feel that mother-in-law and mother-in-law, but also deliberately shows off, and if you report selectively, it is easy to cause misunderstanding by individual leaders. Therefore, Fang Hanmin is actually very difficult to do.
Of course, Fang Hanmin is a very assertive person, in order to reflect his low profile, he does not want to run to the leader's office often despite being misunderstood by the leader. Fang Hanmin didn't care about Lao Xia's reproach, "Mr. Xia, before the waste catalyst recovery and treatment device was officially put into operation, someone reminded me that it was recommended to hold a commissioning ceremony, but I think this is inconsistent with the principle of advocating strict economy in the factory, and I am afraid of distracting the energy of the leaders, so I did not agree to the commissioning ceremony, and asked Mr. Xia to understand the decision-making at the grassroots level." ”
Lao Xia has long known that Fang Hanmin is not a soft persimmon, and he has received the full support of the first director Yuan in his work, and he waved his hand when he heard Fang Hanmin contact things in principle of strict economy, "Forget it, I just said it casually, I don't mean to blame anyone, the factory leaders don't know, the matter has passed, there is no need to turn over the old accounts." ”
Since Lao Xia no longer cared, Fang Hanmin took the opportunity to change the topic, "Mr. Xia, Director Xue, the experimental center has been completed, do you want to go to each laboratory to have a look?" ”
"What kind of experiments are being done in the lab?"
"Because some time ago, we were fully engaged in the waste catalyst recycling and treatment test, and a new test is being prepared and has not yet been carried out."
"Forget it, we'll check back when new trials are carried out in the future." After speaking, Lao Xia was ready to turn around and leave.
"Mr. Xia, I just have something to report to you." Fang Hanmin stopped the other party.
"Oh, what's the matter?" Lao Xia turned around and came back.
Fang Hanmin reported the idea of repositioning the technology center to Lao Xia, "In order to give full play to the role of the technology center in the development of new products and technologies, I think it is necessary to separate it and become an organization at the same level as various departments and workshops. ”
Lao Xia is nearly sixty years old, and the conversation just now has made him stand in the corridor for nearly half an hour, and now he feels very tired, obviously a little impatient, "I can't remember the oral report, you prepare a written material, and wait until I read the written report material." ”......
Fang Hanmin presented the written report that had been prepared to Mr. Xia in the afternoon of the same day, Lao Xia put the report aside and asked curiously: "If the technology center is separated from the technical department, the jurisdiction of your technical department is much smaller, haven't you considered this problem?" ”
"As long as it is conducive to scientific research and technological development, the size of the jurisdiction of the technical department is not the most important thing."
Lao Xia nodded, "The starting point for this kind of consideration is good, everything is focused on work, and no other factors are considered." After a pause, Lao Xia asked tentatively: "After becoming independent from the technical department, there must be a person in charge of the technology center, do you have any recommended candidates?" ”
"There's no candidate, and we're not there yet."
Fang Hanmin presented the report on the repositioning of the technology center to Lao Xia, mainly out of procedural and etiquette considerations, and asked him to give some opinions or suggestions by the way, because the chief engineer Lao Xia has no right to decide on this matter, and this report will finally be sent to the hands of Director Yuan, and only Lao Yuan can make a final decision on this kind of thing.
It's early December, and in order to start trials of generic patented drugs as soon as possible, Fang plans to make the technology center independent before New Year's Day, so that it can play a high role in the development of new products and technologies that will begin soon.
Two days later, Fang Hanmin came to Mr. Xia's office again, and Lao Xia knew his intention, "I just finished reading your report, and there are so many old comrades in engineering and technology in your technical department, and in your report, you don't pay attention to them!" ”
Fang Hanmin was slightly surprised, "Mr. Xia, I don't understand what you mean. ”
"Those old engineers have a certain theoretical foundation, but also have a wealth of practical experience, and they will reach retirement age in a few years, I mean, can we make full use of them and let them exert their spare heat for the technology center?"
Lao Xia's suggestion made Fang Hanmin cry and laugh, "Mr. Xia, I have also had your kindness, but this is just wishful thinking on your part and mine." Let's not talk about the technical level of the old comrades, but the work attitude of some of them, Director Xue of the General Engineer's Office has been the section chief of the technical department for many years, and he should know better than me. ”
"Don't the old comrades have a high consciousness and a good work attitude? Your conclusion is too arbitrary, isn't it? ”
"I'm not saying that they are not highly conscious, of course they have a good work attitude, but the old comrades are of the same age, similar qualifications, and their salaries are all at the same level, if the old comrades with a good work attitude rush to the front line of scientific research, while others enjoy leisure in the office, it is unfair to those old comrades who work in the front line of scientific research!"
Lao Xia thought for a while, "In order to reflect fairness, you let all the old comrades stay in the office, although this practice is reasonable, but it is a waste of intellectual resources!" ”
"Unless more work is done in distribution, such waste is inevitable in the present situation. Who wants to work more with the same income? ”
In addition to this, Mr. Xia did not put forward any more suggestions, Fang Hanmin took the report, turned around and walked out of Lao Xia's office, and sent the report directly to Lao Yuan, "Director Yuan, this is the idea I talked to you about repositioning the technology center before, and this written report has been sent to Mr. Xia for review." ”
Fang Hanmin's idea coincides with the director of the factory, because after the Spring Festival, the old Yuan is going to the Municipal Industrial Bureau, and he has recommended Fang Hanmin to the higher authorities to take over his position as the factory director, although he has not yet revealed the news to Fang Hanmin, but he asked Fang Hanmin in a conversation in August, who else can be qualified as the chief of the technical section.
Fang Hanmin took the initiative to separate the technology center from the technology department, which will make the technological progress of the Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory more dependent on the technology center, as long as the technology center plays a key role in the development of new products and new technologies, Lao Yuan is more confident in Fang Hanmin as the director of the Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory.
Lao Yuan said while reading the content of the report: "Your idea is very good, the technology center is independent, the administrative procedures are simplified, and it is conducive to the smooth development of scientific research and development." The problem is that the technology center is an institution at the same level as the workshop department, and it is related to the implementation of the scientific and technological progress plan of the Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory. ”
Chief Engineer Lao Xia also asked the same question, Fang Hanmin deliberately avoided it, when Director Yuan raised this question, he had to give a clear answer, "I have considered the question of candidates, I think that the two young people who are now in charge of the laboratory management of the technology center are very suitable to be the heads of the technology center." ”
"Are those two of your assistants?"
"yes, I think they're pretty good."
Director Yuan didn't express his position immediately, he stood in a higher position and had more comprehensive considerations, "Bystander Qing, if you think that the two of them have a certain level, I think it is better to let them serve in the technical department, and the person in charge of the technology center is best served by you." ”
Although he was a little surprised, Fang Hanmin felt that going to the technology center was just to give full play to his scientific research expertise, so he readily agreed, "That's fine, I'll be the person in charge of the technology center, and I'll swap them out." ”
"To be precise, you're also the head of the technical center, because you have another job."
