Chapter 724 The Last Straw

"I understand Director Zhu's kindness to me. I will definitely do a good job, and I will definitely do a better job than the kid surnamed Duan." Xu Liang's face flashed with pride, and he continued: "The factory was chaotic before. I have already corrected the issue of bonuses, and I will discipline those college students well. Also, as a manager, I will definitely set an example and be the first in everything. I believe that the employees in the factory will also support me sincerely. It is not difficult for me to manage this small factory, so you can rest assured."

"Very good." Zhu Junhai nodded with satisfaction, and continued: "The two of us still have a long way to go in the future. We need to work together in the same boat and cooperate with each other to extend our glory in the army to other places. I am very optimistic about you... "

"Don't say anything, Director Zhu, it's all in the wine." Xu Liang raised his glass and said to Zhu Junhai.

"Drink less, and don't hit the electric pole when riding a bicycle at night." Zhu Junhai said with a smile.

"Commander Zhu, you're just joking, who hasn't ordered a drink from our army?"

After Xu Liang and Zhu Junhai clinked their wine glasses, they drank the wine in one gulp...

……

"Brother Jia, come up with an idea, we all listen to you."

"Yeah, I feel that this new manager doesn't understand technology at all, and today he said that we will cancel our new product research team. In the future, we will share the same office with the technical department, and the bonus may also be reduced. My heart is cold. It's..."

At this time, in the dormitory of the office building of the labor service company, two technical secondary school students said to Jia Zhiqiang who was reading.

"I think... let's wait a little longer..." Jia Zhiqiang pondered for a while after hearing this, then turned his head and said to the two technical secondary school students.

"Wait a fart!" Liu Yijiang, who was lying on the upper bunk, sat up suddenly, and said angrily: "If you want me to say that this new Xu Liang is a simple-minded and well-developed limbs! He is better than that kid surnamed Duan." It's far away. At least that Duan Yun really understands technology, can talk, and can win over workers. He still has two brushes. It's not like this guy. A dignified manager is like a porter. Carrying those iron lumps in the workshop, you said that the superior leader has a problem with his head, removed a good manager and replaced a porter, isn’t that putting his head on his butt?”

"Keep your voice down..." Jia Zhiqiang gave Liu Yijiang a blank look, and then said, "That Manager Xu sleeps in his office every day, don't let him listen."

"It's okay, after get off work today, I saw him leave the factory on a bicycle. I went to the bathroom just now and saw that the light in his office was not on. I guess he hasn't come back yet." Liu Yijiang continued with a look of disdain. : "I feel like I can't stay in this crappy place anymore. If I hadn't been fooled by that kid surnamed Duan, I would have been transferred to work in the provincial capital by now. I thought I could get a good house and wedding money here, but in the end It's because the plan couldn't keep up with the changes, Duan Yun was slapped by the people above not long after the new year..."

"Didn't we look for Duan Yun before, and he also promised to honor his promise to give us a bonus. This is all a good deal. I don't think he will go back on his word with such a big boss now, right?" Jia Zhiqiang said.

"I said, Brother Jia, you worked in the factory before anyway, and sometimes you can't believe the words of the leader. The guy surnamed Duan is a genius at first glance. His mouth can bring dead people back to life. How about you?" Do you dare to believe him?" Liu Yijiang said with curled lips.

"I think Manager Duan is okay. At least he bought us a lot of things during the Chinese New Year, and even gave us bicycles when he first came here. He paid for it all out of his own pocket..."

"Yeah, I also think that Duan Yun is a good person, and he is really strong in technology. I have learned a lot from him since I came here, which is not in the textbook." Said the two technical secondary school students in the lower berth .

"Let's talk about this matter tomorrow when we go to work. Kong Jing is probably sleeping now. I'll call him over to talk about it tomorrow morning." Jia Zhiqiang thought for a while and said.

"Kong Jing is still a girl after all. She doesn't have to think about so many things about her future. At worst, she can find a good man to marry for the rest of her life. But we are all men, especially Lao Jia, you are 30 years old. Don’t worry, you haven’t even got a wife yet?” Liu Yijiang glanced at Jia Zhiqiang, and then said: “It’s shameful enough for us to come to this big group, as the saying goes, it’s good to enjoy the shade under the big tree. , there are only 300 people in the whole factory, which is not even as good as a small-scale enterprise in the provincial capital. The manager is only a deputy department-level cadre. What kind of future can he have? If it is to make money, the bonus Duan Yun promised us at the beginning is really high , just for the 2000 yuan bonus and a bungalow, I will continue to work first, but the problem is that now that Duan Yun has been withdrawn, can this promise be fulfilled?"

"Didn't Duan Yun say that he would give us bonuses..."

"Humph, childish!".Liu Yijiang snorted, and continued, "Now that Duan Yun is no longer a manager, why should he spend such a large amount of money out of his own pocket to cash in our bonuses? Besides, the new Manager Xu wants to cancel our new manager." The product research and development team is here, you were all present when we were asked to stop working in the factory before? How can we develop new products when we are not even allowed to make samples? If we can’t develop new products, why should Duan Yun give us money? "

As soon as Liu Yijiang finished speaking, the other three people in the room fell silent.

Undoubtedly, Liu Yijiang pointed out the crux of the problem this time. If Xu Liang did not allow them to test new samples, then the research and development of new products would obviously be out of the question, and it would be impossible to get the bonus promised by Duan Yun.

In fact, college students such as Jia Zhiqiang were full of enthusiasm and ambition when they entered university, and they also wanted to make a career. But after they entered the society, considering their family and the surrounding environment of the society, making money and future only became their top priority. Important goals, especially in the face of their parents and relatives who have trained them for so many years, everyone hopes to bring them some returns, at least to make themselves and their families rich and beautiful.

Dreams are no match for firewood, rice, oil and salt. Jia Zhiqiang and the others also have a lot of invisible pressure, forcing them not to do whatever they want, wasting time, and people always want to go to high places.

And Xu Liang stopped their decision to develop new products, like the last straw that broke the camel's back, it actually cut off their greatest hope of staying in this factory...
