Rebirth 1994: Starting from laid-off workers

The sun shines into the office from the window and falls on everyone's face.

The expressions of people participating in the meeting varied. Some were excited, some were panicked, and some even looked sad.

Wearing a black professional suit adds a bit of elegance and majesty to Gao Jie, and her innocent baby face is so cool that people dare not look directly at her.

She stood in front of a large blackboard, with the pointer in her hand pointing at a capital letter of 200 million.

"The loan above has never been implemented. If you want the food factory to turn around, you will face such a huge funding gap. As the backbone of the factory, you all have the obligation to brainstorm ideas and share the worries of the factory!"

Five days have passed since the agreement was signed, and it seems to be the beginning of July.

Not only did the loan fail to come through, but the employees of the food factory somehow got the news and organized people to come and demand wages twice.

Fortunately, Zhang Jiaqiang asked Zhao Xiaoyong and Zhou Dahei to come forward and find out the leaders of the trouble, otherwise there would be another big drama.

However, this situation cannot last long, and sooner or later greater conflicts will break out.

Today is Monday. Zhang Jiaqiang held his first management meeting, with the purpose of gathering public opinions on how to resume production at the food factory as soon as possible.

In addition to those who have to be on duty and traveling, the rest of the management including finance and designers participated in this meeting.

Zhang Jiaqiang sat in his seat, his eyes swept across everyone, and suddenly stopped on Liu Zhenxing's face.

"Master Liu, you have personally seen the machine over there. Do you have any suggestions now?"

Liu Zhenxing no longer leads the team himself, but has become the chief mechanic of the technical department of the factory, responsible for all mechanical maintenance and other matters.

In the past, he has been to screw countries and island countries, these technologically advanced countries, to purchase and negotiate machines, so he has the most say in the matter of machines.

Hearing the boss's order, Master Liu smiled bitterly and said, "I did go to see it yesterday. I regret going there now. Those are just machines, just a pile of broken iron. When it comes to resuming production, it's just a biscuit machine." If you can piece it together, let’s replace the others with new ones as soon as possible!”

Now in the province, and even in China, the biscuit industry is entirely dominated by Qindao. The biscuits produced by several food factories there almost dominate the entire market, while the biscuits produced by other companies are almost dead.

Putting together a biscuit machine is almost like courting death and continuing to throw money into it.

Zhang Jiaqiang’s goal is to produce bowl noodles to seize the huge market for instant noodles, so he must have an advanced bowl noodle production line.

That requires a lot of funds!

At present, there are continuous orders for lighters, and funds are flowing back. It is true that some funds can be allocated, but if we want to save the entire food factory, this amount of funds is still a drop in the bucket, and we need loans from above.

However, after several requests for loans, there was still no news.

If the machine can't spin and produce no benefits, is it true that every month's salary is in vain to support idle people?

Finance Wang Hanmei said, "What the factory director is most worried about right now is that the workers in the food factory will continue to cause trouble. I think we should pay them a month's salary first. Now that we have money and can eat, will they still make trouble?"

These words immediately aroused the support of many people.

Zhang Jiaqiang has also thought about the method she mentioned. Anyway, the food factory only has 6 employees, and a total of [-] yuan a month can be spent. After this month, he will have a large amount of money in his hands, and he does not need to worry at all.

But Zhang Jiaqiang then thought, this is a trap and you must not jump into it!

Now the employees are asking for wages, but once they have been paid for a month, they want to get all the arrears.

That is a bottomless pit, and no matter how much money Zhang Jiaqiang currently has, it will not be enough to fill it.

But if you don't give it, you will have another excuse to cause trouble, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to suppress it this time.

So the only solution is to let the machine run and get paid according to the work done, rather than giving wages in vain.

As for those arrears of wages, according to the agreement, it will be settled by the higher ups. No one should think of pouring this dirty water on me!

As for who leaked the news, it is still a mystery at present. Anyway, this matter was deliberately created to cause trouble for himself.

After Zhang Jiaqiang expressed his concerns, the entire office fell into silence.

Suddenly Gao Jie said softly, "Since the biscuit machine can still be used, why not change your thinking? Qindao's biscuits are really popular and we can't beat them. We can instead produce biscuits for children!"

These words seemed to stir up a thousand waves with one stone, said office director Cai Yuanxing.

"Although there are biscuits for infants and young children on the market, they are all in the shape of animals, or have added pigments to look novel and fun, but they are really not nutritious. If we develop nutritious biscuits that are truly suitable for infants and young children, we can really become an instant hit!"

Many people began to roll their eyes. This involves food hygiene, food safety, nutrition, etc. Even if they want to develop it, they can't find suitable talents for a while.

But these words inspired Zhang Jiaqiang.

In the last generation of supermarkets, there were a lot of novelty biscuits, but now just picking out one or two can be regarded as a first.

"We don't need to be so high-tech. We can change the biscuits and add some flavors like chocolate, cream, etc. It should be more novel and fun, just for teenagers!"

He said and looked at the designer Yang Xiaohong, "Xiao Yang, the design of the new biscuits will be left to you. I hope to see the draft come out before this weekend!"

Yang Xiaohong immediately nodded and said, "This design is simple, don't have too many tricks, just pick out three or five kinds first, and you can have a draft as soon as tomorrow!"

Zhang Jiaqiang recognized her ability very much and immediately performed a few words to encourage her, and then said to everyone.

"The technical department is responsible for putting together the biscuit machine. Other relevant departments will cooperate, especially the security department. They must do a good job in protecting the machine there. The problems in the food factory are well known far and near!"

All the old people in the factory knew what he was referring to, and they burst into laughter.

After Zhang Jiaqiang glared, everyone stopped laughing and nodded to get ready for work.

"The meeting is over, please report any news as soon as possible!"

After everyone left, Gao Jie put the minutes of the meeting on the table and went downstairs to prepare the vehicle. Zhang Jiaqiang said hello this morning and said he would go see Deputy Director Zhao after the meeting.

Zhang Jiaqiang stopped her and gave up the idea of ​​meeting Deputy Director Zhao.

He realized in his heart that it seemed that even forcing Deputy Director Zhao to death would be useless as those loans would never be granted.

If the conflict is intensified now, it will be of a different nature and become a threat. In the end, it is likely to cause irreparable consequences. It is better to find a way to solve it as soon as possible.

From now on, I will take care of myself and see how the higher-ups react when the time comes.

As for whether the loan could be obtained, Zhang Jiaqiang suddenly thought of another sum of money, and now it seems that he might be able to get some clues.

"Xiao Gao can't move anymore and won't go out this morning. Go and ask that Tuesday Hei to come over!"

Gao Jie agreed and left the office.
