Revival Road

Chapter 52 Tao Jin Tao Tang Tong Zhengjie

Tong Zhengjie, deputy director of the eleventh branch, looked at the rainy scene outside the window and wondered whether he should go to the workshop.Although today is Saturday, the company has a holiday due to May Day, and most units do not rest.However, due to the delay of upstream components in the [-]th branch factory, the production of the final assembly was stopped.After consulting the production department and Mr. Ma, the branch factory closed as usual.Only the maintenance team goes to work, and they have to take the opportunity to overhaul the equipment.

At this week's regular production meeting, Vice President Ma Guangming reiterated the requirement for the central cadres to be on duty. As long as there are people in the unit, the central cadres must be present, and clearly stated that this is the request of Mr. Tao.

Dai Dapeng would not go, and the weather is like this again... After thinking about it, Tong Zhengjie put on a raincoat and entered the workshop.

The normally noisy assembly workshop was quiet at the moment.Tong Zhengjie advanced to the duty room to see, and asked the duty officer about the situation, everything was normal.Then began the routine inspection.There are only six maintenance workers working in the huge assembly workshop, and they are repairing the assembly bench that is out of alignment.

Tong Zhengjie saw Tao Jin quietly put out the cigarette butt.Without saying a word, he turned around and called Tao Jin to the inspection room near the gate of the workshop.

"Old Tao, I know you are a big smoker. But the company stipulates that smoking is not allowed in the production area, and there is no exception for rest days. You are a master master, and you can't play a negative role on the apprentices." Tong Zhengjie said with a pleasant face.

"Yes, I will pay attention to it later..."

"It's not to pay attention, but to make a thorough correction. I said you don't bring cigarettes when you enter the factory, Lao Tao, this is the second time, I gave you face last time. This time it won't work, you can go by yourself the day after tomorrow The financial office should pay the fine. Because it is overtime, I will go to the lower limit, 20 yuan."

"Same surname, don't go too far..." If it was the past, Tao Jin would not dare to resist, but now it is different.

"It's because you are Mr. Tao's elder brother. I have already made an exception once. This time I can't make another exception. If I don't punish you, how can I manage the [-] people in the branch factory? Don't think that you can violate the law by relying on Mr. Tao." The rules..." Tong Zhengjie said seriously.

"What's wrong with me?"

Tong Zhengjie looked up and saw Tao Tang standing at the door of the examination room with an umbrella in his hand.His face turned pale immediately, "Mr. Tao, you still come to the workshop in such a heavy rain?"

"Brother, go get busy." Tao Tang said softly to his elder brother.

Tao Jin gave Tong Zhengjie a provocative look, and went out with his head held high.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Tao, I didn't mean that..."

"why apologize?"

"I……"

"Same as the deputy factory manager, right? Why is your branch factory resting today?"

"It's like this. Because the parts of the six, nine, and fifteen branches were not supplied, I asked the production department and Mr. Ma to arrange a rest. Only a few comrades in the maintenance team worked overtime to adjust the assembly platform..."

"Oh, the upstream parts are not available, what's the reason?"

"I asked, the main reason is that the raw materials came into the factory late..."

"Come with me."

"Yes."

Tong Zhengjie walked anxiously with Tao Tang in the empty and quiet workshop, scolding himself countless times in his heart.It's a bit fucking memorized, how could it be such a coincidence?This stinking problem of his can never be changed... He peeked and saw Mr. Tao frowning, as if he was thinking about something.

"Old Tong, the factory has been implementing lean management for a while, how are you doing?"

"Did not do well……"

"What's wrong?"

Here we come, World News.Tong Zhengjie thought for a while, "It's always impossible to pass the stage, and some bad habits are always difficult to change..."

"It's quite accurate to see the problem." Tao Tang pointed, "Look, that pair of gloves definitely shouldn't be there, and the pile of cotton yarn... and the water cup, well, this part is definitely not there, it should be there The first step of lean management is on-site management. If the on-site management is well done, lean may not be effective. But if the on-site management is not done well, lean will definitely go through the motions and will not achieve any results.”

"I remember Tao Tang's guidance."

"Let me ask you, what is the core idea of ​​lean management?"

"Continuous improvement and elimination of waste."

"Very good. Comrade Tong Zhengjie, I think the on-site management of your [-]th branch factory is the best in terms of the company's current situation. This has a lot to do with your daring to manage. You punished my brother just now, why did you punish me?" Apologize?"

Tong Zhengjie looked at Tao Tang at a loss, not knowing what to say.

"I just talked about habits. What do you think is the best way to completely get rid of bad habits?"

"Strict rewards and punishments..."

"Then why do you apologize? What is the branch factory's policy on smoking at the workplace?"

"A fine of 20 to 50 yuan"

"Then go to the upper limit and fine 50 yuan." Tao Tang looked at the workers, including Tao Jin, who listened with pricked ears. Brother, 50 yuan, as an example to others. Post it on the bulletin board of the branch factory."

"Yes."

"Strict rewards and punishments, supplemented by a reasonable system, are basically complete. There is a stove principle in management, have you heard of it?"

"No……"

"It's very simple. First tell everyone that the stove will burn people. This is called the principle of legislation first. If you touch it, you will be burned. This is called the principle of timeliness. Whoever touches it will burn others. This is called the principle of fairness."

"I'll remember it. I must follow Mr. Tao's instructions." For some reason, Tong Zhengjie felt a lump in his chest.

"Don't insist on implementing the regulations because Tao Jin's younger brother is the general manager of the company. You are absolutely right. Why do you apologize? This shows that you are guilty. What are you guilty of? Let me tell you, I will criticize and punish you for not doing a good job. , and even dismissed. But you will not retaliate against you for punishing my brother. They can testify that if I do that, I won’t even wipe it off if you spit on my face!” Tao Tang pointed at the maintenance workers and shouted.

Tong Zhengjie's eyes were moist, and he tried his best not to let the tears come out.

"Also, your 20 to 50 is unreasonable. 20 is 20, and 50 is 50. Why do you have a range? No smoking in the workplace is not allowed, regardless of the circumstances. It's fair. Okay. , you are busy, I am leaving."

Tong Zhengjie sent Tao Tang to the door and watched the chairman disappear into the rain with an umbrella in his hand.He quietly wiped away the tears that gushed out, and returned to the dazed workers, "Old Tao, for Mr. Tao's justice, I will pay your fine for you. Brothers, I don't know if you believe it or not, I believe it." Mr. Tao will definitely lead us to make the factory well. Let’s work. I will treat you to dinner at noon.”

Tao Jin lost face in front of his younger brother, and went home full of anger—he didn't go to Tong Zhengjie's invitation.

The rain has basically stopped, and the wind blowing over is comfortable and cool.Tao Jin was worried about a problem. He had received a lot of gifts in the past ten days, what should he do?
If you are polite to others, you must ask for something.Those who gave him cigarettes, wine, and souvenirs all made their demands.Those who want to change jobs for their children, those who want to find employment for their children, and even those who want to be promoted, that person is a mid-level person—Shi Cheng, the chief of the General Section of the Finance Department, saw that Quan Jianhe's seat was vacant, and brought him He wrote a thick envelope and came to beg him, asking him to say a few words of kindness in front of Tao Tang.

The envelope contained exactly 1 yuan.The bank seals are all there.

He didn't dare to accept such a heavy gift.This is different from tobacco, alcohol, and local products, but Bai Shuxian accepted it. She said afterwards, Chief Shi just asked us to say a few words, and did not guarantee his promotion. What are you afraid of?
The son has reached the age of marriage, and there are too many places to spend money.It will take him several months to save 1 yuan, but now he can get it without any effort.Tao Jin actually understands his wife. She is greedy for money, but not for herself. Usually, she is reluctant to buy a pair of new shoes. Isn't it all for her son?

But what happened today reminded him that his brother is not a reasonable person.The things he promised were not easy to do.

Cannibals have short mouths and short hands.This is the unchanging truth since ancient times.Tao Jin naturally hopes to deliver "products" to those people early, but so far he hasn't delivered any of them.What he thought would be easy to handle, now he finds that it is not so easy to handle.

Tao Tang has been in office for more than ten days, and he only came to the house once.There were only two formal meetings, the first time at Xiaozhao and the second time at home.Originally, Tao Jin wanted to ask his younger brother for some "products" when he was invited over for dinner, but he called Mei Ling and Wu Shi'an over, how could anyone ask?Moreover, it seemed that he had anticipated this situation, and made a lot of requests during the meeting, the core meaning of which was not to cause trouble for him.If you have anything at home, you can directly mention it to him, but don't open it to others.In particular, don't speak for others and promise people indiscriminately.

It's simply inhumane.

what to do?Tao Jin felt embarrassed.Tao Jin, who returned home with a sullen face, naturally wouldn't mention the embarrassment he encountered in the morning. He ate his wife's stewed noodles and prepared for his lunch break. His wife followed up in the bedroom.

"I heard that the second child bought a house..."

"Is it a corruption building? That's for sure."

"It doesn't seem to be. I bought it outside."

"Outside? How did Youdao know? Where is Youdao?"

"I went to Wang's house for dinner. Snobbish things are stuck upside down now..." In fact, Wang's family is generally stronger than Tao Jin, but now it's upside down.

"What did you say?"

"He said he was going to deliver sticky cakes that day, and his second uncle answered the phone, it seems to be from the salesman..."

"Silly boy, why did you say it now?"

"What does the second child mean? You want to bring the old couple back to live?"

"It should be." Tao Jin thought about it.

"It's always a good thing. I thought, let Youdao help clean it up?"

"Pack what?"

"It's a new house. Does it have to be renovated? Does he have time?"

"I don't care. I can't control it..." Tao Jin became upset.

"Also. What do you think of that Wang Xiaojuan, okay?"

"It's fine if you like it."

"I don't think she's good enough for our son."

"What do you mean?"

"It's one thing to be small. I don't think Lao Wang's family is very good. Lao Wan came to visit this morning and picked up a girl from the finance department. I saw the photo, she is beautiful! And she is two years younger than our Youdao, suitable."

"Accountant in the finance department? How did Lao Wan know him?"

"Have a little kiss with his wife. The girl's original partner is blown."

"What does Youdao mean?"

"I haven't seen him yet. I guess I went directly to Wang's house. I'm thinking that the accountant in the finance department must have a better future than the girl from Wang's family."

"Can people fall in love with your son? Wishful thinking?"

"It didn't work before, but it will work now. I've heard about the virtues of those people in the office building. If you want to talk about snobbery, there is no one more snobbish than them. She doesn't understand what it means to marry Youdao?"

"I said, Lao Bai, how do you know that she is better than the girl from the Wang family? Just because you saw the photo?"

"That's one aspect. Thinking of the Wang family's face in the past makes me panic."

"Don't mention it, I don't want to care about it, I'm upset."

"What's bothering you?"

"I feel that the second child may not give me face."

"What do you mean?"

"Have you promised those bad things? What should I do?"

"Cold salad! Look at your virtue. You can't say it. I will. I don't believe that the second child is so unfeeling."

"Well, go ahead and talk. I'm going to sleep."

"Hey, you're worthless. I'll go to Xiaozhao to find the second child tonight."
