Siheyuan Back to the 1950s

Seeing Master Geng's wonderful expression, Sun Zhengguo could probably guess that this was not his intention.

It seems that there is someone else who is causing trouble.

But no matter who started this incident today, Sun Zhengguo was not going to let it go easily.

At this time, a worker in the crowd hurriedly gave a reminder.

"Master Geng, the director is here now. Please ask the question again so that we can all feel at ease."

"Oh oh!" Master Geng seemed to suddenly wake up and said.

"Director, if this CNC machine tool is produced, will we be eliminated in the future?"

"No, Master Geng, where did you hear this?"

Sun Zhengguo was speechless. These workers knew nothing about CNC machine tools and believed everything they heard.

Seeing that Master Geng still looked unconvinced and the workers didn't seem to buy it either, Sun Zhengguo had no choice but to explain patiently.

"Comrades! Don't worry. No matter how advanced the CNC machine tools are, they still need human programming. For example, changing tools, clamping parts, positioning, monitoring and adjustment, all of these require human intervention..."

After listening to Sun Zhengguo's explanation, the workers, including Master Geng, had understood half of it, but there was still one question that no one understood, so another worker asked.

"Director, according to what you said, are the lathe levels we learned still useful? Can we still get paid according to our levels?"

Faced with the worker's question, Sun Zhengguo was not at all flustered and continued to talk freely.

"You asked a very good question, so I will tell you in detail."

"First, CNC machine tools are not as simple as you think. To use them, you must be educated, know how to program and design, and also know how to turn. Therefore, the salary is higher than that of ordinary workers."

"Second, your rank will remain the same as before, and your salary will not be reduced by a cent. Moreover, even after a hundred years, these machine tools will still need to be operated manually, so you don't have to worry about losing your job."

OK! After this explanation, the workers finally understood that no matter what, they would not suffer any loss.

Those who are capable can play with CNC machine tools, while those who are not capable are still the same as before, with the sound of waves still there.

The workers were happy at this moment, but there was one person who had a sullen look on his face. That was Master Geng.

He felt that everything that happened today was caused by him, so he took the initiative to stand up.

"Captain, please punish me! If I had waited for you to come and ask for clarification, things wouldn't have turned out like this."

"Master Geng, your behavior today was indeed inappropriate. How about this? You organize everyone to work first, which can be considered as redeeming your crime and making up for it. We will hold a meeting to study it later and make a final decision."

"Hey, hey! Don't worry, Director. I'll go right away."

With the intervention of Master Geng, the workers forgot about the unpleasantness just now, returned to their jobs, and worked in an orderly manner.

Seeing the crisis being resolved, all the cadres breathed a sigh of relief.

Everyone watched in the workshop for another ten minutes until everything was on track before they prepared to return to the office.

After leaving the workshop, Sun Zhengguo saw that all the cadres were there, so he simply did not go back to the office. He turned around and said to everyone:

"Everyone, since everyone is here, I will not notify you separately. All cadres above the section level, please gather in the conference room."

This order was not surprising to everyone. If this matter was not dealt with today, it would be strange! So everyone followed suit.

Soon, the group arrived at the conference room and took their seats according to the seats they had previously agreed on.

Sitting in the main seat, Sun Zhengguo first glanced at the venue, seeing that everyone was present, and then he slowly spoke.

"Comrades! Today's incident has sounded a wake-up call for us. Our publicity of new things like CNC machine tools is not adequate, which led to today's farce."

As Sun Zhengguo spoke, he glanced in the direction of the Propaganda Department, which made Section Chief Cai feel uneasy and he quickly stood up.

"Director, I am primarily responsible for this matter. I did not do a good job of timely publicity, which led to misunderstandings among the workers. I ask the leaders to punish me."

Seeing that Section Chief Cai admitted his mistake with a good attitude, Sun Zhengguo did not intend to hold him back. He then pressed him down with his hand, motioning him to sit down first, and then looked at Chen Lianshan.

"Chief Chen, you were at the scene from the beginning to the end of today's incident. Can you tell us how it turned out to be a small matter and almost became a riot?"

"Okay, director."

Chen Lianshan then stood up and began to narrate the whole incident.

Slowly, as he spoke, the cadres present came to their senses and realized that there was a key figure here, and that was Huang Er.

If Huang Er hadn't instigated everyone behind the scenes, the workers would never have been so crazy today.

By the time Chen Lianshan finished speaking, Li Shengli could no longer sit still.

Because he is a party and government official, Huang Er's actions today are definitely problematic, so it must be investigated thoroughly.

Thinking of this, he coughed lightly and then looked at Sun Zhengguo.

"Director Sun, I think Huang Er's motives are not pure. It seems necessary to investigate thoroughly."

"Yes! Deputy Secretary Li's suggestion is very good, but we can't just investigate Huang Er. We also need to investigate Master Geng as well. In addition, we need to be careful about the method and not let our comrades down."

As soon as Sun Zhengguo finished speaking, Liu, the Standing Committee member in charge of discipline, immediately expressed his position.

"Don't worry, Director Sun. After the meeting, I will organize a thorough investigation of the personnel and also investigate those people who were dancing so happily."

"No, no, no." Sun Zhengguo hurriedly stopped him, "Commissioner Liu, just investigate these two people and forget about the others, so as to avoid people being uneasy."

"Also, we must be careful about the way we do it. We can't treat it like a trial of a criminal. We are all our comrades. Although they have made mistakes, it has not reached that level yet."

Fearing that Commissioner Liu might be too extravagant, Sun Zhengguo reminded him again.

"Okay, Chief. I understand."

Just like that, the meeting was originally planned to discuss how to deal with this matter.

Because we still need to investigate the person involved, we have stopped for the time being.

We will wait for the results of the investigation and then discuss how to proceed.

However, no meeting will be held at that time, only a few standing committee members will need to discuss it.

After the meeting, the Propaganda Department and the Technical Department worked together to develop a publicity plan.

Commissioner Liu also began to take action. He first sent a group of people to investigate the background relationships of Master Geng and Huang Er, as well as their usual activities.

Then he asked people to call Master Geng and Huang Er for a talk and found that they didn't have any serious problems.

After the conversation, Master Geng and Huang Er returned to the workshop. The workers found that there was no change in them, so they were completely relieved.

Therefore, it did not cause panic among the people.

Because the matter was still under investigation, Sun Zhengguo could only go back to the office and wait.
