Revival Road

Chapter 58

Not long after talking with Zhao Qingmin, Guo Tao came to his door, and Tao Tang had a deep talk with the nominal third in command.The reason why Guo Tao is said to be the third in command in name is because in terms of real power, he is inferior to Li, Han, Luo, and even Liu Xiuyun.

Guo Tao came to the trick at 09:30 in the evening, when Han Zhiyong, the chief accountant, was there.Seeing Guo Tao coming, Han Zhiyong stood up and left. He said to Guo Tao: "I am reporting the audit results to Mr. Tao. Chairman Guo must have something important to do. I will not bother the two leaders."

"Are the audit results out?" Guo Tao is very concerned about this matter, because this audit is different from the normal departure audit, and the time is shorter than Guo Tao expected.

"Preliminary came out... Some situations need to be reported to Mr. Tao in advance... Before finalizing the draft, the audit team must communicate with the two leaders..." It happened that meeting Guo Tao made Han Zhiyong a little embarrassed. This important audit report He has the responsibility to report to the chairman of the supervisory board, and it should be before reporting to Tao Tang.Because he never took the board of supervisors seriously, Han Zhiyong habitually ignored this due procedure.

Ordinarily, the audit team of the headquarters should be received by the board of supervisors, and because of habit, this time Han Zhiyong was the counterpart to receive and organize the provision of accounts and materials needed by the audit team.

"Oh..." Guo Tao didn't say much, shook hands with Han Zhiyong, and watched him leave.

"To disturb you so late doesn't affect your rest, right?" Guo Tao sat down on the sofa, "Don't bother me, I don't drink tea at night." He said to Tao Tang who made tea for him.

"Let's make an exception, it's not so evil. Those of us who don't sleep well at this age are either too weak or have too much psychological pressure. I often drink coffee at night and have never suffered from insomnia."

Since Tao Tang took office, it was the first time for Guo Tao to come to Tao Tang, a temporary "nest".This is a luxurious suite, the outer room is a reception room and study room, the layout is different from when Song Yue was there, and the furniture has also been changed. It used to be a black leather sofa, but now it is replaced with a light brown one.

"You don't seem to smoke?" Tao Tang saw Guo Tao playing with the cigarette case on the coffee table.

"I don't smoke."

"Never or quit later?"

"never."

"I quit later. It's better to quit."

Guo Tao threw the box of soft China on the coffee table, "You should issue a smoking cessation order, look at the smoke rising in this room, how much old Han has smoked..."

"Because I've smoked it before, I understand how smokers feel." Tao Tang pushed the teacup towards Guo Tao, "I was just thinking of talking to you, I have a good understanding."

"I went out for a walk and came up when I saw the lights in your room were on. What's the result of the audit?"

Tao Tang smiled, "I have to criticize you now. You are the chairman of the board of supervisors, so you should grasp the situation as soon as possible. Besides, the audit department is under your control."

Tao Tang's job is the chairman of the board, and he is the top supervisor of the state-owned assets of Red Star, so he really has reason when he says that about Guo Tao.

"You are right to criticize. I accept." Guo Tao sighed, "Firstly, I don't have enough financial knowledge; secondly, it is said that I am in charge of the audit department, but it is just a false name, and the business is still in the hands of Lao Han. Tube."

"How is this possible? How can the audit department merge with the finance department? Isn't this a cat and a mouse in the same cage?" Tao Tang was surprised, and his contempt for Guo Tao inevitably arose in his heart.

"President Tao, this is what I want to tell you..."

"Wait, before getting to the point, let me briefly paraphrase Han Zhiyong's report. The audit team believes that Red Star has a serious potential loss problem, and the amount is astonishing. I am a little worried about what to do..."

"how many?"

"Estimated at no less than eight hundred million!"

"There are so many?" Guo Tao was taken aback, "It seems that I should also file a resignation report."

"Comrade Guo Tao!" Tao Tang said solemnly, "Everyone has resigned, who will do the work? Huh? You are an old comrade, and you have a good reputation in Red Star. What you need to do now is how to recover the losses, not resignation. Fact! The audit team hasn’t exchanged opinions with me yet. I can’t urge you to wait. According to Mr. Han, the latent losses are mainly concentrated in the two areas of inventory and foreign investment. In addition, there are many loopholes in management, some of which are serious... ..."

"Han Zhiyong also has to bear a lot of responsibility. If it wasn't for this result, he wouldn't have taken the initiative to report to you!" Guo Tao said angrily.

"Old Guo, I don't want to talk about responsibility first. At least not now. I think the responsibility should be determined by the superiors. What we have to do is to try to reduce and restore the loss of state-owned assets. There is something more important than this, that is It is our duty to lead the company out of the predicament. The key to making Red Star a success lies in our team, and the most important thing is the three of us, you, Lao Zhao, and me. Now I feel very confused, Lao Zhao seems to have no Comrade Guo Tao, I have always wanted to talk to you. You said that the stability of the Red Star is a top priority. Do you want to go deeper, or temporarily slow down the investigation? Let the two leaders involved in the Yang Song case feel at ease?"

This is a very sad word.

Guo Tao became anxious when he heard this, "Comrade Tao Tang, I swear by my party spirit and personality. I, Guo Tao, may have neglected supervision and dereliction of duty, but there is absolutely no corruption problem! I solemnly declare that you can organize an investigation of me, even if I have a The money came from a wrong path, and he is willing to accept any punishment from the organization."

"It's inappropriate for you to say that. First, I can't organize an investigation on you; second, what Red Star Company needs is a dedicated chairman of the board of supervisors and secretary of the discipline inspection committee, not someone who is eager to get rid of himself." Tao Tang said nothing. polite.

Guo Tao was panting heavily and didn't know how to answer the words for a moment.

"Comrade Guo Tao, my experience has taught me a lot. Under certain special circumstances, it is really difficult for some positions to play their due roles. For example, you, the chairman of the board of supervisors and secretary of the Disciplinary Committee, are like this. Now the people who hinder you from playing your role have already Being investigated by the organization and punished by party discipline and the law, it is meaningless to talk about the past. The problems disclosed in the audit report were anticipated by the headquarters leaders, and it was not an emergency. Two current leaders of the company had problems, and one The first person is the main person in charge. It is unbelievable that the company has no financial problems. What I want to say now is, what should we do in the future? I think there are many ways, but it is not resignation. Comrade Guo Tao, I am in Shengdong The work has been fully affirmed by the headquarters, but I reflect that there are many mistakes in the work in Shengdong, and the most serious mistake is in the employment. In Shengdong, I suggested that three company leaders be transferred and dismissed. Nearly a hundred middle-level people, this approach seems to be happy, but the sequelae are huge. For example, you and Lao Zhao are both old leaders of Red Star, and you know Red Star much better than me. Send a new party secretary and chairman of the board of supervisors, do you think it’s okay? Can the three principals who know nothing about the company know the pulse of Red Star? What a fool.”

Guo Tao rubbed his cheeks, "What you are criticizing is that I cherish feathers too much."

"What should I do next? I still have to rely on the two of you. I had a heart-to-heart talk with Secretary Zhao two days ago, and said that as long as the three of us work together and keep pace, the team will have no major problems. If the team is stable, the middle management will be stable. If the middle management is stable, the employees will not be chaotic. We say that everything depends on the employees, but the specific work depends on the organization. You can’t let the employees manage themselves? That is the biggest irresponsibility. Chairman Guo, I am Thinking this way, first of all, the three of us have to take responsibility under the overall goal, and we can no longer follow Song Yue’s old path, harming others and ourselves. I am in charge of management, Lao Zhao is in charge of party affairs, organization and propaganda, and you, Manage the supervision and discipline well. Isn’t this a perfect match? What is the current general goal? It is to find ways to promote the operation and complete the operation indicators. Otherwise, the operation will collapse, and we will reorganize the cadre team. What’s the point? Use? So management is the overall situation, and other work can only be subject to this overall situation for the time being, and we cannot ignore the basics. I am by no means saying that there is no need for supervision, discipline or party building. On the contrary, these are important prerequisites for our good management. Facts have proved that, Song Yue always wanted to make a statement, but party affairs, supervision, and discipline inspection were barren, the management collapsed, the team was torn apart, and he failed to achieve a statement. Li Luo will not buy his account. Therefore, we must not make this mistake again. For the past problems, Song Yue should take the main responsibility, Lao Zhao, and you should also take some responsibility. In the future, the three of us will bear the responsibility. If there is a problem, it is not easy to blame others. I sincerely hope that Red Star From now on, there will be no more Yang and Song. Whether it will work or not depends on how the three of us do. From now on, Lao Zhao must cheer up and do a good job in party building propaganda. As for you, you must rebuild the supervision system. Grasp the management. It’s true that I’m the monitor, but I also need to accept your supervision. The board of supervisors has the right to understand and supervise every aspect of the operation. I’m not high-minded. I’m doing it for my own good. If Lao Song has With this awareness, he will not be shuanggui."

Tao Tang spoke very sincerely, at least Guo Tao felt that way, "Mr. Tao, I am very moved and ashamed when you say this...you are right, I completely agree."

Tao Tang smiled, "I have a basic judgment. Under the current product structure, it is absolutely impossible for the company to reach 100 billion yuan. The shortage of funds cannot be alleviated, and the salary and benefits of employees cannot be guaranteed. New products, The development of new markets will be subject to financial problems, and the result is that the three of us are completely mired in business affairs, and we have completely become the maintenance president... Therefore, any problem cannot impact this big goal. I think this is the biggest politics of Red Star! I To put it more clearly, even if a member of the team has serious violations of discipline, if he is involved in the completion of business goals, we have to let it go first. Even with Comrade Feng Shizhao, I have this attitude. Of course, this cannot be said publicly. , I can only tell you, Secretary Zhao.”

When Tao Tang said these words, he was thinking in his heart, go to hell, the fastest way is to kill people!Take off the black hats of one or two heavyweights, and the situation will come alive immediately!But he will not be like in Shengdong Company, the choice of breakthrough is very critical...

"I understand. You are right, and my responsibility is great. But..."

"The great thing about dialectics is that you can never look at a problem one-sidedly." Tao Tang smiled. "No problem can be absolute, right? There is no way, just investigate if you need to investigate, and withdraw if you need to. In fact, it’s okay to leave anyone. As a result, hehe, as the saying goes, if Zhang butcher died, he would not eat hairy pigs. Not only was the work not affected, but it was even better... Chairman Guo, what I want to talk to you about is the management of cadres. I talked about it at the meeting the other day. It was a problem. I also discussed it with the secretary. The general feeling is that there is a big problem with the work style of our factory cadres. This questionnaire also reflected it. You must take a look Those papers... How to change the style of cadres? I am afraid that it will not work in a large and general way. The central government put forward the eight regulations and rectified the four winds. It is very specific. We don't wait for the headquarters, we can try to move it first. I think this will always Don't make mistakes or take detours... The Party Committee and the Commission for Discipline Inspection must issue some targeted, specific, and highly operable regulations under the general requirements of the Central Committee. Make rigid constraints, not only within eight hours, but also beyond eight hours... I noticed that the guest house has dinner all day long. Is there anything that should not be eaten? It’s hard to say. This is the most annoying thing for employees, so why not Starting from this aspect, compulsorily formulate a few items so that employees can see our sincerity and changes, thereby boosting employees' confidence in the team..."

"We thought of getting together!" Guo Tao has always hated eating and drinking with public funds. He has a hard life in this area. Among the team members, his business entertainment expenses are the least, so he immediately responded, "Mr. Tao, with your support It’s easy to handle. In the past, it was always said that hospitality is also productivity, which is nonsense. But what can we do if the top leader is like that? I mentioned it at the meeting, but no one responded.”

"Let's establish a system first. Without a system, it will be difficult to manage. In addition to stopping eating and drinking, I hope you will take the lead in organizing the audit department, finance department and other units to conduct an inventory of the warehouses of the company's secondary units. The pressure of funds, and the second is to find and plug the loopholes in management..."

"Okay. I'll organize as soon as possible."

The conversation between Tao Tang and Guo Tao went very late.Different from Zhao Qingmin's talk, Tao Tang was more about assigning tasks.Guo Tao's attitude is more positive and fully responsive.Tao Tang felt that Guo Tao still wanted to do something.He has been in the factory for more than half a month, and he has not heard any rumors about Guo Tao's corruption. This is the premise for him to rely heavily on Guo Tao.But he felt that the chairman of the supervisory board was a bit "empty" and his prestige was not high.Probably his "emptiness" is the reason for his low prestige.In fact, Zhao Qingmin is the same.Tao Tang's biggest headache at the moment is that he doesn't have a very capable assistant, but there is no rush for this.
