1987: Sleepless Tonight

"I am not interrogating you, and you are not a prisoner. How can I interrogate you? Our two companies are in a cooperative relationship, both of which are state-owned units. One is a leader in the textile industry and the other is a leader in the beverage industry. It should be mutually beneficial. But you turned around and ordered products from Wanjia Beverage Factory, isn’t that a stab in the back?” Li Changhe said, “You didn’t even say hello to me in advance, which made me very passive.”

Speaking is not an interrogation, but every word, every sentence is an accusation.

They are all state-run units, and they are cooperative relations. They do not say hello, but they are stabbed in the back.

These words put the responsibility on Zhang Shuren.

"Director Li, if you say that, I don't agree with it." Zhang Shuren said, "It's not for nothing that I went to Wanjia Beverage Factory to order soft drinks. There is indeed a relationship between the First Cotton Textile Factory and the Second Beverage Factory. Cooperation, and the cooperation time is not short, but how does the second beverage factory do it, don't you know it in your own mind?"

"Every time you call to ask for soda to be delivered, how many times do you delay? The longest time was even delayed for four or five days. The benefits that were originally planned to be given to employees were delayed until after the festival. Even if it’s raining, even if it’s just cloudy, and the rain hasn’t fallen yet, I still find excuses to postpone it, and I don’t even call to say in advance.”

"Is this cooperation? How can there be such a cooperation method? This is clearly not taking the No. [-] Cotton Textile Factory seriously. We give you money, but you make a show."

Zhang Shuren was very angry.

The big shop bullies customers, and the big factory bullies customers.

"Rainy days will indeed have an impact, and it is not easy to load, and there are many units that cooperate with the second beverage factory. Our soda is very popular, and sometimes it is inevitable that the delivery time will be delayed because of being too busy." Li Changhe said.

Li Changhe knew that the Second Beverage Factory did have these problems, but he still had to find a reason.

Slow delivery, not on time delivery.

And he can't change this matter. Although he is the deputy factory manager, all the employees in the factory are very oily, especially those who are older and have seniority even older than him.

From the standpoint of his position, he was very tall, and he responded to everything he said, but he only responded with his words and did not move his hands.

Many state-run units have this drawback.

"Director Li, since you can't guarantee that the soda will arrive on time, then I can't guarantee that I will order soda from the second beverage factory every time." Zhang Shuren said, "I will call Hongyuan Beverage Factory at about one o'clock in the morning. There are still people picking up 15,000 bottles of soda to be sent to the factory at [-]:[-] in the morning, and they will send someone to deliver them immediately, not only that, but also help to unload the goods."

"Besides, their soda is still advertised by foreigners and supported by the leaders above. If it were you, who would you choose?"

Who doesn't want to be served by the master?

The No. [-] Cotton Textile Factory ordered soda water from the No. [-] Beverage Factory, which was to make money for the No. [-] Beverage Factory, but the No. [-] Beverage Factory became a master instead.

Warm heart.

upset.

But now, when facing Wanjia Beverage Factory, Zhang Shuren feels like a master.

Happy.

Satisfactory.

"Old Zhang, we have been cooperating for so long. You have turned to cooperate with other beverage factories because of some things that are not comprehensive. There will be cracks in the cooperation between our two units," Li Changhe said.

There was a hint of threat in his words.

There are many business meetings in Jiangcheng, and the Second Beverage Factory will also participate, which makes Li Changhe very proud and used to stand on a high ground.

"Director Li, are you threatening me? You don't have to beat around the bush. It is true that the No. [-] Beverage Factory is the leading enterprise in Jiangcheng's soft drink industry, but Jiangcheng is not the only soda company that produces soda from No. [-] Beverage Factory. There are many manufacturers of soda. The Cotton Textile Factory has everything that is lacking in soda, and the employees in the factory have a good response to Wanjia soda. The cooperation with Jia Beverage Factory will continue, so I don’t need to worry about Factory Manager Li.” Zhang Shuren said.

The phone hangs up.

Li Changhe held the microphone and was absent-minded for a long time.

I wanted to pinch each other, but I couldn't.

He didn't expect Zhang Shuren to be so tough when talking to him, so he directly confronted him.

"Is it because the No. [-] Cotton Textile Factory has an opinion on the service of the No. [-] Beverage Factory, or is it because there are so many soda manufacturers and so many choices, that it is so stubborn, or because there is something special about Wanjia soda, so it suddenly There are so many changes?" Li Changhe muttered to himself.

Things got worse and worse than he expected.

Many things seem out of control.

It seems that after the meeting at Qingchuan Hotel, everything has changed.

Then, he called Jiangcheng Iron and Steel Company again. With the situation of Zhang Shuren before, he spoke more tactfully and politely this time, but Jiangcheng Iron and Steel Company also talked in general terms, and only said that he would continue with the Second Beverage Factory if he had the opportunity in the future. cooperate.

Even if they don't give an exact statement, they won't terminate the cooperation with Wanjia Beverage Factory.

This situation gave Li Changhe a sense of crisis.

He immediately asked people to find out how many companies had previously cooperated with the No. [-] Beverage Factory, but now turned to cooperate with Wanjia Soda Water.

At this time, Lu Hao had already returned to Wanjia Department Store.

Drinking rice wine and eating steamed buns at Nini's Breakfast Shop.

There is one more person in the store to help.

She is a girl of eighteen or nineteen years old, with rough skin and dark complexion, a little clumsy at work, but very diligent.

"This girl's name is Liu Ping. She came from the countryside of Xinzhou and came here to find a job." Su Min whispered to Lu Hao, "I found her outside the department store, squatting in a corner, looking pitiful, just like She chatted for a while, gave her a bowl of rice wine and a few steamed buns, and she came over to help."

Xinzhou is a county that originally belonged to Huanggang. In 83, Xinzhou County and Huangpi County were placed under the jurisdiction of Jiangcheng City. In about seven or eight years, these two counties will be removed and changed to districts. Merged into Jiangcheng City.

"Are you an agricultural registered permanent residence?" Lu Hao looked at Liu Ping.

"This is my man." Su Min introduced in a timely manner.

Liu Ping walked over immediately, somewhat cautiously, "Yes."

"Want to find a job?" Lu Hao asked again.

Liu Ping's eyes lit up, "I think."

"There is no shortage of people in the breakfast shop. If you can't find a job here, go find another place." Lu Hao said intentionally, "By the way, you helped for a while just now. It was you who wanted to help, and you didn't get paid for it."

Su Min and Chen Linjiao looked at Lu Hao.

Good or bad.

I really want to hit him!

But even though they wanted to bite Lu Hao, the two of them still didn't interrupt Lu Hao's words, they just watched from the sidelines.

In fact, Lu Hao said this intentionally, in order to test Liu Ping's character. The breakfast shop is short of people, but he needs to find someone who is honest, so as not to let his wife be bullied.

He has to check and check.
