Siheyuan Great Craftsmen

Don't tell him that our country and Big Brother are in the same camp. For a country, the only thing it always believes in is interests.

Having seen the intrigues between countries in his previous life, he didn't believe that Big Brother's help would be free.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is already the end of August.

The news about the expansion of the steel mill had already been circulating in the factory, but as teams of engineers began to move into the steel mill to build new factory buildings and workshops, the news was also confirmed.

Everyone was happy at first, but a rumor was also spreading among the workers.

That is, Lou Jiancheng has withdrawn from the management of the steel mill, started to retreat behind the scenes, enjoy dividends, and no longer participate in management. Suddenly, everyone's happy mood was like a bucket of cold water poured on it. At first, no one believed the news.

However, the state also officially began to send people to strengthen the management of the steel mill.

Director Yang was officially appointed as the director of the steel rolling mill and began to take full responsibility for the production of the steel rolling mill. This news also indirectly proved the accuracy of the rumor.

As for Nie Guodong, he was promoted directly from a level 10 technician to the director of the logistics department of the steel rolling mill, and was responsible for the overall management of the factory's logistics.

Some of Lou Jiancheng's staff began to gradually withdraw from the steel mill.

With a series of dazzling changes in the steel mill, everyone became a little panicked in an instant, especially since many of the master craftsmen who were originally hired at high salaries left the steel mill, which made the changes even more severe.

When Zhou Tian heard the news, it had been nearly five days since he left the abandoned car. When he first heard the news, he was stunned.

Although he also knew that Lou Jiancheng would withdraw from the management of the steel mill sooner or later, he did not expect it to be so soon. He remembered that in his previous life, Lou Jiancheng seemed to have withdrawn in 1953, but now it was almost a year earlier.

"Could it be that he was influenced by himself?"

Zhou Tian couldn't help but feel a slight movement in his heart, but after thinking about it, he felt that he probably didn't have that much ability yet, so it might be Lou Jiancheng's own suggestion!

What Zhou Tian didn't know was that it was actually Lou Jiancheng's own suggestion to withdraw from the management of the steel mill. As the horizontal lathe was developed by Zhou Tian, ​​Lou Jiancheng obviously felt a pressure. This pressure was not brought to him by the country, but pressure he put on himself.

As the director of a steel rolling mill, he was able to work in this industry and naturally knew the situation of the domestic industry. He understood how significant the emergence of horizontal lathes was to the country. It was precisely because of this that he realized how dangerous it would be if such an important thing was in the hands of a private person. So whether for himself or for his family, he needed to make a choice.

Fortunately, Lou Jiancheng was able to see the situation clearly. After thinking for a long time, he finally chose to retreat behind the scenes and gave up the steel mill.

This is also the reason why Lou Jiancheng withdrew from the management of the steel rolling mill ahead of schedule. Although there is no direct relationship with Zhou Tian, ​​there is an indirect relationship.

During the lunch break, everyone gathered together and talked about this matter. One worker couldn't help but ask.

"Master Zhou, do you think this news is true or false? Is Director Lou really willing to give the factory to the state?"

"Yes! You know, the steel mill is Director Lou's ancestral business. If I were Director Lou, I would definitely not accept this!"

Another worker followed up.

Although many factories in the city have started public-private partnerships over the past year, it has had little impact on everyone and no one cares about it. But now it is different, as the incident happened in his own factory.

The impact on everyone is huge, especially as some master craftsmen began to leave the steel mill, many workers began to worry about the future of the factory.

"I say you are just worrying for nothing. It would be better if the factory was controlled by the state. Haven't you seen how good the welfare and treatment were in those state-owned factories? And every New Year, the welfare in the factory is not comparable to those in private factories! And if something goes wrong in a state-owned factory, the state will take care of it for us. Will private factories do that?"

Facing everyone's questions, Zhou Tian was about to answer when he saw Wu Jiefang stand up first.

"Yes! My neighbor is from a state-owned factory. Every time there is a festival, their factory would give out a lot of good things, which made me very envious. Now our factory has also become a state-owned factory, so won't we also be able to give out a lot of good things during festivals in the future?"

Some workers who have personally witnessed the welfare benefits of workers in state-owned factories also spoke out.

As some people spoke, the worries in the eyes of the workers in the entire workshop suddenly disappeared, and they began to ask those people whether the treatment in other state-owned factories was really as good as they said.

When they received the affirmation, many workers exclaimed and laughed, and everyone began to look forward to their future days in the factory.

Therefore, when Director Yang planned to inspect the workshop privately because he was worried that the factory had changed too much recently and the workers were afraid of panic, when he walked into the second workshop, he heard a lot of laughter and exclamations from the workers.

This immediately made Director Yang feel confused. When he walked into the workshop, he saw many workers gathered together, laughing happily.

All his worries were swept away instantly. In a good mood, he couldn't help but ask, "What are you all laughing at?"

When the people who were laughing heard what Director Yang said, they all stopped, looked at each other, and turned their eyes to Master Zhou Tian and his disciple.

After all, they all knew that Director Yang valued Zhou Tian very much.

Facing the gazes of the crowd, Zhou Tian and his master Liu Wuming looked at each other. They could see a hint of confusion in each other's eyes, but they both reacted quickly.

Zhou Tian stood up first and said, "Director, it's okay. Everyone is looking forward to the benefits of the factory on the 15th this year!"

"Oh, that's it!"

Director Yang pretended to understand and said, "Please rest assured about this. As the director, this is the first year of our public-private partnership, so I will definitely provide you with a box of mooncakes at least! What do you think?"

"What mooncakes? Really?"

When the workers heard Zhou Tian talking about the benefits, they thought Director Yang would not agree. But they did not expect Director Yang to directly mention the benefits, which made them unbelievable.

You know, in previous years, they didn't have such good things, and they could only envy the employees in some factories with good welfare benefits. But now they also have benefits to receive, and this makes everyone's originally worried hearts completely put to rest.

"Is Director Yang real?"

A worker asked in disbelief.

"Of course it's true. I, the factory director, told you this myself. If you don't get it, you can come and question me directly!"

Director Yang immediately said in a decisive tone.

"Great, thank you Director Yang!"

"Thank you Director Yang!"

Upon hearing this, all the workers thanked Director Yang in unison, and their expressions began to become excited.

"Okay, everyone, have a good rest, and go back to work. Master Zhou, come with me!"

After hearing what Director Yang said, everyone immediately dispersed obediently, still happily discussing with each other, and walked towards their own workstations. Only Zhou Tian, ​​with a puzzled look on his face, followed Director Yang out of the workshop.
