Chapter 1770: Not at all interested

After breakfast, Yang Xiaotao told Ran Qiuye what Yu Zecheng had asked him to do, and then drove to the machinery factory.

After learning about the situation, Ran Qiuye first sent Duanwu and his two siblings to the nursery, and then sent Miaomiao back to Yangjiazhuang to go to school.

Wait until noon and buy some things.

Yang Xiaotao drove to the machinery factory.

The gate is still heavily guarded, and once you enter the factory you can still feel the oppressive air.

However, these are only temporary. Once this incident is over, the machinery factory will be back on track.

After parking the car, Yang Xiaotao prepared to go around the workshop.

Due to changes in metallurgy, the production of alloy materials has been affected, and the corresponding machinery factories will also receive less.

Yang Xiaotao also wanted to know the specific impact.

Workshop 2 has been the busiest place in the machinery factory since the production of the Venusstar machine tools.

In recent years, with the continuous improvement of factories, the production of machine tools has become more and more large-scale.

The tasks here have been accumulating over the years and have never been completed.

When we arrived at the workshop, everyone had already started working.

Seeing Yang Xiaotao coming, everyone was used to it. Except for a few managers who came forward to greet him, everyone else did what they were supposed to do.

“Can the production be guaranteed this month?”

Yang Xiaotao passed by a workstation where workers were making machine tool parts. Yang Xiaotao took a look and saw that the material used should be copper-tungsten alloy.

Several accompanying personnel looked at each other, and then one of them spoke up, "Boss Yang, according to the current situation, the original plan may have to be postponed!"

"Because of insufficient materials?"

Everyone nodded.

"It seems that since a few days ago, less than half of the materials have been delivered!"

"Our director has discussed this matter with Director Wang and Director Zhan several times, but there is no result!"

"Everyone is producing for urgent needs, and no one wants to fail to complete the task, so after the materials are transported, they are reserved by various workshops before they can be put into storage!"

As everyone was talking, Yang Xiaotao nodded slightly.

This is not surprising.

If it is other materials, it is easy to deal with. The machinery factory will prepare more as safety stock.

But this alloy material is simply not enough!

Once produced, it is divided up among several large departments, and once it reaches the machinery factory, it is only a small piece.

Especially for things made by machinery factories, the material requirements are very high and the demand is also large.

If these workshops were divided up, we could have something left in the warehouse, all thanks to the research institute at the steel plant.

Yang Xiaotao had no better solution to this problem. He was not a metallurgist. Moreover, these materials were made of basic materials. The country couldn't even make basic materials well, which meant that even a good cook could not cook without rice!

After understanding the situation in the second workshop, Yang Xiaotao went to several other workshops.

Sure enough, the situation is similar to that in the second workshop. Although the engine workshop uses less units individually, the quantity is large!
Now, in addition to supplying the Quancheng Automobile Factory, we have established cooperation with many domestic automobile production plants, and the workload is even greater than that of machine tools.

There are also engines for ship modification. Especially when I went to Jiang Defu's house last time, after the Northern Fleet was successfully modified, orders came in one after another and the phone calls kept urging me.

If there is a shortage of their goods, it won’t be long before people come to our door to make trouble.

These are only the ones in the north, those in the south are not idle either, especially since there is a relationship like Yang Xiaotao's uncle, they have to give him some face!

Therefore, the engine's demand for alloys is greater and more urgent!
In addition, the Kuiniu armored vehicle is also waiting to be shipped. There are many orders from Mosidov and the Kingdom of Khaza.

The key point is that they have already paid the full amount first, and we cannot let our customers down.

This is another urgent need!
As for the last workshop of Huang Degong, the aircraft engines it produces also need material support.

There was no other way, Yang Xiaotao could only ask them to slow down for the time being!
But it's not going to work if we continue like this.

After coming out of the workshop, Yang Xiaotao went straight back to the office.

In the room, Lou Xiao'e was sorting materials, being particularly quiet.

Yang Xiaotao was a little uncomfortable with this. Normally, this guy would wander around when he had nothing to do, especially to the broadcasting room, where he would go three or four times a day.

However, when Yang Xiaotao thought of the command center upstairs, he didn't find it strange, because the entire upstairs was filled with this kind of atmosphere.

Sitting back at his desk, Yang Xiaotao thought for a moment and picked up the phone.

"Director Wang, I'm Yang Xiaotao!"

On the other end of the phone, Wang Junhong was sitting in a chair, thinking about the future.

He also heard some news about the future personnel arrangements of the Metallurgical Bureau.

Many of them think that someone needs to be replaced.

He didn't say anything about replacing someone. After all, such a big thing happened during his term of office, it was impossible for him, as the top leader, to say that he had no responsibility.

At the very least it is a problem of ability, otherwise such a thing could be done right under our noses.

Even if it was the blame left by his predecessor, it was not a reason for him to shirk responsibility!
Not being caught and interrogated is already the best outcome!
Therefore, he was ready to leave, and even ready to be hidden.

But what he didn't expect was that the most popular person to take over this position was Yang Xiaotao!

This made him feel a little jealous!

It was he who reminded Yang Xiaotao to pay attention to the investigation of the Coordination Office.

In the end, he succeeded, but he himself was in trouble.

There is always some indescribable feeling in my heart.

What's more, this guy is too young, so young that even he is jealous!
When I suddenly received a call from Yang Xiaotao, I was stunned, and then I felt powerless.

This is how the officialdom is. When luck comes, heaven and earth are on your side. When luck is gone, even heroes cannot be free.

When you are needed, you are the protagonist.

When it is not needed, it is not even a foot cloth.

This has been the case since ancient times, what can he do?
It’s better to lose the battle than to lose the reputation!

"Ahaha, how come you have time to call me!"

Wang Junhong asked with a laugh, and Yang Xiaotao didn't hear anything wrong in her tone, so he told her about the situation in the machinery factory.

"Director Wang, I checked and the current supply is not even half of what it was before. This is too little."

"Our machine factory's usage is simply not acceptable! It should be at least 80% effective!"

"I know the difficulties of metallurgy, and I know it's not easy for you, but you have to help me with this matter!"

Yang Xiaotao was very polite when he spoke. Wang Junhong frowned, thinking that Yang Xiaotao called to inquire about the personnel situation of the metallurgical company so as to prepare for taking over, but he didn't expect that the other party didn't mention it at all.

Wang Junhong was a little dazed, and only came back to her senses when she heard Yang Xiaotao's voice again, "Xiaotao, didn't you hear the news?"

Yang Xiaotao was silent for a moment. He understood what the other party meant and knew what the other party cared about.

Regardless of other things, he just had no interest in metallurgy.

Wouldn’t it be nice to just stay in the machinery factory?

This is not only his job, but also his career!
Only a fool would go into the quagmire of metallurgy.

"Uncle Wang, you and my father-in-law are friends, and I am your junior, so I will tell you the truth."

"If I say this wrongly, you can just treat me as a junior and don't take it seriously!"

Wang Junhong opened the collar of his clothes and felt as if his secrets were exposed, and his face felt a little hot.

"Uncle Wang, Mr. Xia came to me last night and asked me to go to the metallurgical department to take charge of the work!"

"But I know my own worth, so I rejected it on the spot!"

Refused?
Wang Junhong's face turned red and he almost tore off the buttons of his clothes with his hands.

I felt incredible.

This is the Metallurgical Bureau!
This is the boss of the Metallurgical Bureau!
This is a little worse than the boss of the First Ministry of Machine Building, but not worse than the boss of the Seventh Ministry of Machine Building!
Why, you refused?

"Uncle Wang, actually, I think the superiors haven't made up their minds yet, so you still have a chance!"

"You have to behave yourself. After all, you are not the main person responsible for this matter. At most, you are guilty of negligence."

"But then again, can something this big be discovered so easily?"

"So the leader must be waiting for your performance, don't give up on yourself at this time..."

Yang Xiaotao said a few simple words on the phone, but these few words were like a bolt from the blue, waking Wang Junhong up!
"Yes, you're right. I, I should cheer up!"

Wang Junhong patted his cheeks, looking excited.

The superior hasn't made a decision yet, which means he hasn't given up on him yet!
You have to perform and strive for it.

"Uncle Wang, now is a critical moment."

"Just think about it, this mess of metallurgy, anyone who goes there will be stuck in the mud, but you are different, you are in it!"

"Isn't this the time for you to show off?"

"At this critical moment, if you stand up and organize people to resume production and ensure the normal operation of each factory, especially the investment in key projects, then that would be your achievement!"

"Also, you know the current situation of our machinery factory. The leaders are all here, and the higher-ups are watching us."

“If they heard that metallurgical materials were in short supply at this time, what would they think?”

Wang Junhong's heart immediately sank when he heard this, "They must think that our metallurgy is not good enough and we can't complete the task!"

"You must be thinking that I'm not doing my job well enough!"

"Yup!"

Yang Xiaotao said affirmatively, "But if you guarantee our production, we complete the task with quality and quantity, especially the foreign orders, and earn foreign exchange, what will the leaders think?"

Now Wang Junhong doesn’t need to say anything, because she already has the answer in her heart!

"Xiao Tao, okay, uncle was confused and almost forgot something important. Fortunately you reminded me!"

"Well, it's the case that those involved are confused, but those who are watching can see clearly. I'm just saying it, and if time goes on for a long time, you will come here to commit suicide!"

"No, no, no, time is of the essence!"

Wang Junhong stopped talking now. "Well, I'll have people resume work and adjust the plan immediately."

"Don't worry, I will give you the alloy materials from your machinery factory."

"Okay, thank you in advance. I'll treat you to a drink after this busy period."

"Haha, great..."

The two hung up the phone one after another.

Wang Junhong stood up from his seat, the previous decadence on his face gone, replaced by a kind of madness.

A madness for the future.

"Come on, come on!"

The secretary who was on duty outside the door hurried in, and felt a little uncomfortable seeing his boss like this.

How come he suddenly came back to life?
"Hold a meeting immediately."

"The responsible person from each department should come here, and if there is no one, one should be selected from below."

"Half an hour, no, ten minutes, a meeting in the conference room in ten minutes!"

"What are you standing there for? Go!"

Seeing that the secretary was still in a daze, Wang Junhong immediately raised his voice.

The secretary reacted and turned and ran without saying a word.

Their Wang Ju is back.

Wang Junhong picked up the cup on the table and drank it in one gulp, his face becoming confident.

"You guy, after saying so much, you still want benefits!"

Wang Junhong smiled, then took a deep breath, "But it's true."

"We really need to show off now. At the very least, we can't admit defeat like this!"

Wang Junhong picked up a cigarette, lit it, and began to think about what Yang Xiaotao had just said.

From the beginning to the end, I have to say that Yang Xiaotao has a sharp vision!

And although this kid is young, but with his ability to think calmly, if he were really allowed to work in metallurgy, he might be able to do it.

Thinking of this, Wang Junhong's hand holding the cigarette suddenly stopped.

"What's the quagmire you're talking about, you bastard?"

"I don't like it!"

He shook his head helplessly.

The things that I cherish are not valued at all in the eyes of others. It makes me feel aggrieved no matter how I think about it.

"Next time, I'll settle the score with you!"

Crush the cigarette butt and walk out with big strides!

No matter what happens in the future, at least now, the opportunity is still in his hands.
