Siheyuan: How many worlds does the system integrate?

Looking at the last signature on it, the two of them were deeply excited.

Let's look at the content of the approval: Agree to expand the production and finance of the Red Star Machinery Factory. It is recommended to select a city in each of the major agricultural provinces to open a branch factory to facilitate the promotion and popularization of agricultural machinery. Please discuss the specific amount of expansion with the comrades at the machinery factory.

This matter has been settled, and I finally understand why it has not been approved for so long. It seems that the leader is considering making a big move. There are so many provinces in the country, and how many branches will be added at once? My small machinery factory cannot handle it.

"Minister, are our factory really going to expand so much all at once?" the two confirmed again.

"Yes, according to the instructions of the superiors, your Red Star Machinery Factory has been separated from the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill. As a ministry-affiliated enterprise, in addition to expanding the current machinery factory by three times, you will also establish a branch factory in Baocheng, Tangshan, Luoyang, Henan, and Jinan, Shandong, the capital cities of the three northeastern provinces."

"This, this, this...!" Li Xuewu suddenly thought of a sentence. If you take too big a step, you may easily pull your balls.

"Leader, our factory currently has only more than a thousand people, and there are less than a hundred technical personnel. If we build a branch factory, how can we have so many people to provide technical support?"

The senior leader answered confidently: "Don't worry about it. The higher-ups and the ministry have already considered it. Expansion and opening of branch factories cannot be completed overnight. First, complete the expansion work at your main factory. Then the ministry will notify the local authorities to select some factories that meet the reconstruction conditions and merge them into the Red Star Machinery Factory as the basis for the branch factories. At the same time, we will select technicians and workers to come to the main factory for training. I will also transfer a group of graduates from the technical secondary schools under the ministry to strengthen your machinery factory!"

After taking a sip from the teacup, the leader continued, "Just before you came, I just received a notice from our comrades stationed in Australia that your batch of combine harvesters has also been well received on Australian farms. They are discussing the next purchase plan with the government enterprises there, so your next burden will be heavy. Do you have the confidence to complete the task?"

Li Xuewu and Secretary Xu quickly stood up and said, "Please rest assured, on behalf of all the workers in the machinery factory, we promise you that we will complete this successfully!"

"Okay, come and sit down. Regarding the level of your Red Star Machinery Factory, it is temporarily planned to be a department-level unit. Based on the principle of seeking truth from facts and not letting laymen command experts, it was decided at the organization meeting that you two will continue to serve as the factory director and secretary, and your level will be raised from director to deputy director. However, the organization will send several deputy factory directors and full-time deputy secretaries to your factory to assist you in your work. You must truly play the leading role of the organization.

Regarding the personnel adjustment within the factory, you can give priority to the employees within your factory. When you return, you can draw up a list and the department will make a decision at the meeting of the organization department! Old Xu, I'm afraid your retirement will have to be extended for a few years!"

Secretary Xu grinned and said, "Leader, I am still young and don't want to retire so early. I would love to make more contributions to the country!"

"Hahaha, it's good to have this awareness. This is the blueprint of your factory's new factory area. The demolition mobilization work has been issued to the district government and the local street office. As for the compensation issue for the demolition, the department will solve part of it for you, and your factory will pay part of it. You must hurry up and implement the work. Under the premise of not affecting normal production, hurry up and build the new factory area!"

"Yes, I promise to complete the mission!"

"Do you have any other ideas? Now that I have time, you can speak freely!"

Li Xuewu thought for a while and said, "Leader, I want to add a technical research and development department to the organizational structure of the new factory, which will be used to study new machinery, engines, etc. We will produce one generation, trial-produce one generation, conduct pre-research one generation, and explore one generation, so that our machinery will always remain at the world's advanced level!"

"Well, your idea is very good. You need to have this spirit of exploration. I think we can set it up as soon as possible. Are there any difficulties?"

"The main problem is that our current technical strength is weak. The current technology and R&D are all done by Professor Jin, several senior professors and students. I hope the leaders can recommend some talents to us!"

Now many talented people are still sent to the countryside to participate in labor reform, which is a huge waste of human resources. If we can call some of these people back during this expansion, it will not only protect the talents, but also be of great benefit to their machinery factory and even the country.

After thinking for a moment, the leader said, "I know about this matter. I can select some engineers and experts from our Ministry of Industry to come to you. As for the others, I will report and apply to the higher authorities. I believe that the leaders will strongly support it!"

After leaving the ministry compound, Li Xuewu and Secretary Xu Yang took a car together. In the car, Li Xuewu said, "The expansion is so big all of a sudden, I'm really worried that I can't handle it!"

"There's nothing to worry about, actually. The general direction is controlled by the higher-ups. You and I just need to do a good job in the production and operation of the machinery factory. However, with more people, there will be more things to do. Many tasks need to be further subdivided. We can't do it the way we did before!"

Li Xuewu nodded: "Indeed, we should. Several deputy factory directors and deputy secretaries have arrived, so we must assign them some tasks. We have to discuss the specific division of labor when we return."

"Hahaha, there's nothing to think about. Let's take control of several important departments, including personnel, finance, production, factory office, security department, and discipline inspection group. We can let them be responsible for the remaining departments such as propaganda, labor union, and logistics. Just do it boldly, and I will provide support for you!" Secretary Xu, a veteran who has been working in the industry for a lifetime, knows all about these things.

The reason why he was willing to support Li Xuewu so strongly was because Li Xuewu was still young and strong, just in his thirties, while he himself was about to retire. Even if he was allowed to work for a few more years, it would not exceed ten years.

By that time, Li Xuewu would be only in his forties. Supporting Li Xuewu now would be paving the way for his descendants. His most promising son Xu Liang is already the director of the factory office. With this expansion, he will also be able to be promoted to the level of deputy director.

When I really retire in the future, I can at least make him the director of a branch factory or the deputy director of the main factory!

Li Xuewu could guess what Secretary Xu Yang was planning. Since he had offered an olive branch, he should just take it. He smiled and nodded, "I'm not good at these open and covert struggles. I'll leave it to you. I'll just focus on increasing production."

Secretary Xu smiled and said nothing more. Anyone who believes this is a fool. If you don’t understand these things, then why are so many department heads your own people?

But the two of them are on the same side now, so there is no need to be so fussy about it.

When they returned to the machinery factory, it was almost time to get off work. The two discussed and decided to hold the meeting tomorrow. It was a good opportunity to think about the appropriate candidates for each department tonight.

After returning to the office, Li Xuewu looked at the map of the factory. This area was indeed quite large, and it expanded directly to the east, including a lot of residential houses. It seemed that he would have to spend a lot of money again!

"Xiao Sun, go to the second workshop and see if Wang Guoying has left. If not, ask her to come to my office!"
