Revival Road

Chapter 82 Conflict
Mao Xiaobin, the manager of the power company, did not expect Tao Tang to spot-check the sewage treatment station at night.He rushed to the scene after receiving a call from Zhang Xingwu, where a bunch of leaders had already gathered, besides Tao Tang, Yang Kaihe, Director of the Mobility Department, and Ren Liansheng, Director of the Technical Department, were already present.Jiao Libin, deputy director of technology of the power company, is reporting the operation of the sewage treatment station to Tao Tang.

"Old Mao, why do you care about people? Why don't you report the outage for two days? Fortunately, Jiao Libin has the key to the door, otherwise it would be a big joke." Zhang Xingwu threw him a small bomb right away.

"The machine is always broken, can you blame me?" Mao Xiaobin muttered. He saw Wu Lugui, a worker at the Second Sewage Station, and was about to get angry when he saw Tao Tang's gaze and immediately shut his mouth.

"Manager Mao, regardless of the equipment problem, how do you explain that your on-duty staff is off duty?" Tao Tang asked.

"Mr. Tao, it's because our management is lax...I'll review it with you." Mao Xiaobin's experience is to admit mistakes first, regardless of whether the mistakes are his own or not.He was slandering inwardly, it wasn't because this old machine kept breaking down, and the attendant had nothing to do, so he slipped away naturally.

"Director Jiao taught me a lesson just now, and I have a preliminary understanding of the sewage treatment situation in our factory," Tao Tang's tone softened, "I would like to make two comments. First, the mobile department immediately contacted the manufacturer for repairs and warned them. If the problem cannot be completely resolved, we will seek a legal solution. Just now Director Yang said that the equipment was bought in 2010, and it is still new. Second, the second sewage station is responsible for the treatment of electroplating wastewater, which is of great importance. Before the equipment resumes operation, effective measures must be taken, and it must not be discharged directly into the domestic wastewater pipe network! We must have at least a sense of public morality! Heavy metals seep into the ground, and we ourselves are also victims. This month's production is tense, and the surface treatment cannot be done. Stop, so you have to come up with a way today, even if you store the waste water first. The general manager's office will keep an eye on this matter, and tell the regulatory department to follow up. When the result comes out, let me know."

"Yes." Several people agreed in unison.

Tao Tang looked at Mao Xiaobin, "Besides, just because the equipment fails, the people also fail. The system is the system. If you don't say that the equipment is out of service, the people will herd the sheep, right? It's still a management problem. The problem of leaving the post must be dealt with first and foremost by your leaders. Team!" Tao Tang pointed to the management system on the wall, "It clearly states that at least once a week, the on-duty situation must be randomly checked and the inspection records should be filled out. Manager Mao, how many times did you check last month?"

"Twice..."

"What about the records? What's wrong with the two inspections?" Tao Tang turned to ask Wu Lugui, "Master Wu, tell the truth, have the leaders checked the situation on duty?"

"I checked, I really checked..." Wu Lugui replied repeatedly.

"Master Wu, you are an old master. I just said that you have been working here since the establishment of the station. How can you leave your post? You need to ask for leave if you have something to do. Don't think that this job is insignificant. Do you know the country's environmental protection policy? Do you know about pollution? Environmental consequences? Our company’s water mainly comes from self-provided wells, which are groundwater. If electroplating wastewater seeps into the ground without treatment, do you know what harm it will cause? Master Wu, let me ask you, do you know the hazards of electroplating wastewater?”

Wu Lugui couldn't answer.

"That's not okay. If you don't know why you work, you won't be able to do a good job. Manager Mao, have you done any training? Does he need a job certificate for this position?"

"The training must have been done...Old Wu, do you have a job certificate?"

"Hey, I'm asking you. It seems that you don't know... Xingwu, please implement it."

"Yes."

"Let's go and see your other processing station."

The first station is mainly for the treatment of domestic wastewater, and the situation is fairly normal.Tao Tang inquired about the operation situation in detail, including the monthly expenses, and checked the laboratory records. Yes, but incomplete.

"This won't work. How can we prove that the sewage we have treated meets the standard of reclaimed water? It depends on testing. The reuse of reclaimed water is very good, but the premise is that the recycled sewage must meet the standard of reclaimed water. This is not to deal with the Environmental Protection Bureau. Is it for the safety of our own production and life? Really don’t understand this truth?” Tao Tang said to Mao Xiaobin and Jiao Libin, “One Station’s capability is good, and the equipment is also good in my opinion, better than Shengdong’s. We have no reason not to use it. Well, it’s still a management problem, so we need to make inferences and rectify it seriously.”

"Yes, we will make rectifications according to your instructions and make serious rectifications."

"Not according to my instructions, but according to the system. Tomorrow you will sort out the relevant systems of the two processing stations and give me a copy. In addition, you will also make a copy of the relevant laboratory standards. The country attaches so much importance to environmental protection. As a state-owned enterprise , we can’t sing against the national policy, let alone fool the government. That Wu Lugui, let’s focus on education. Well, let’s stop here for today’s spot check.”

Mao Xiaobin and Jiao Libin didn't understand why Tao Tang suddenly came to inspect the sewage treatment station in the middle of the night, and Zhang Xingwu, who accompanied him, and Yang Kaihe and Ren Liansheng, who were urgently summoned, didn't understand this. awe.

After going to work the next day, Tao Tang called Luo Chong and talked to him about the inspection of the power company's sewage treatment station last night, focusing on the abnormal operation of the "all-in-one machine" used to treat electroplating wastewater in World War II. , "You are in charge of the mobile department. I think Yang Kaihe is called Yang Kaihe, right? There seems to be something unspeakable. Do you know the situation?"

"Don't mention it, it's hard to explain." Luo Chong said, "Song Yue bought that machine without going through the Ministry of Motor Vehicles. There was no public bidding. He went to Dalian on a business trip and saw an exhibition. The decision has been made, and the performance is said to be very advanced, but in the end, it has been on and off, and the manufacturer has been here several times, but there is no fundamental solution, and I think they will not be able to fundamentally solve it.”

"The procedures are inconsistent. As the leader in charge, have you resisted? Do you have meeting minutes?"

"There must be a record of the meeting. But Mr. Tao, Song Yue's style of work is simply not allowed to be opposed by our deputy."

Tao Tang said in displeasure, "You are shirking responsibility. If you clearly objected at the meeting at that time, it would be another matter. It sounds like you didn't."

Luo Chong didn't say a word.

"The problem has already happened, and I don't want to hold anyone accountable. Song Yue has already paid for his responsibility, but the problem is still there, and we need to solve it. First, you have to urge the mobile department to resume the operation of the machine as soon as possible , Sewage discharge is a big deal, so don’t be careless. Second, we need to diagnose whether this machine, which cost more than 1000 million yuan, can be used? If not, what should we do? We have a lot of electroplating parts, so we can’t all outsource What’s more, the electroplating qualification may not be easy to obtain in the future. After solving the post-processing problem, the electroplating line has great potential and should be a growth point for the company. Finally, it is to check the implementation of the equipment procurement system. Now we are engaged in several projects at the same time. For this project, we need to re-standardize the equipment procurement specifications. I will not point fingers, I only check the implementation of the system and process."

Having said that, the landline on Tao Tang's desk rang, "Alright Mr. Luo, that's it."

Luo Chong left with a heavy heart.When Tao Tang picked up the phone, it was Liu Xiuyun who called from her mobile phone. Liu Xiuyun said on the phone that just now an employee of the transportation company went to the human resources department to make trouble, smashed Pan Chenggui's office, and beat Pan Chenggui.She has already ordered the security department to bring the rioting employees to the security department.The injured Pan Chenggui has been sent to the hospital.

Tao Tang put down the phone and asked Li Zhibin to call him, "Someone went to the labor office to make trouble just now, you go and find out what's going on? Also, ask the hospital, how is Director Pan's injury? Is it okay?"

Tao Tang went around the workshop and came back, but Li Zhibin still didn't show up, and was about to call to ask questions, when Liu Xiuyun opened the door and came in, followed by Lu Feng, the manager of the transportation company, Liu Xiuyun said angrily, "Boss Tao, that bastard must be detained." It's really bad, it's a scoundrel!"

"What's going on? Sit down and talk." Tao Tang frowned.

"One of his drivers went to Lao Pan's place to make trouble for no reason... I'm really pissed off. Lao Lu, the man belongs to you. You should report to Mr. Tao." Liu Xiuyun sat down on the chair in front of Mr. Tao's desk angrily.

If you pay attention, you will notice Tao Tang's habit of receiving his subordinates. Whenever he is willing to listen or talk, he will invite guests to sit on the sofa, and he will sit there.If he is unwilling or wants the other party to leave after speaking concisely and quickly, he will not get up.

"Mr. Tao, there is a driver named Huo Zhiqiang in the transportation company. He has been absent from work for a long time without any reason. The unit has repeatedly contacted and urged him to ignore him, so he reported absenteeism this month. Now he quit. The Human Resources Department even beat up Director Pan..." Liu Xiuyun said angrily while sitting on the chair opposite Tao Tang.

"Wait, how is Lao Pan? It's okay, right?"

"That bastard picked up the desk calendar and hit Lao Pan on the head. The hospital said he had a mild concussion, and he has already gone through the hospitalization procedures..."

"If the situation is as simple as that, two things, first, hand over unreasonable troublemakers to the Security Department. Second, you represent me to condolences to Comrade Pan Chenggui, let the hospital take a good examination, and let him rest in peace." Tao Tang told Liu Xiuyun Said two opinions.

Liu Xiuyun said, "Mr. Tao, I propose to detain Huo Jianguo. The nature of it is too bad."

"We don't have that power. Didn't I tell the Ministry of Security to handle it? They don't understand policies and procedures, do they?"

"Okay, according to your opinion." Liu Xiuyun and Lu Feng left.

Li Zhibin knocked on the door and came in, "Mr. Tao, shall I report what I know to you?"

"Oh, just came back?"

"When I came back, I heard Vice President Liu was there, but he didn't come in."

"Okay, let's talk about it."

"Huo Jianguo is indeed absent from work. The labor and management personnel of the transportation company showed his attendance records. Since this year, he has been absent from work for 68 days. The labor and management personnel of the transportation department said that he may be driving a cart outside."

"According to what you said, this person should have been fired long ago. Why did he make trouble?" Tao Tang had already guessed the clue.

"He was comparing. He said that there is more than one transportation company like him..."

"Have you seen this Huo Jianguo?"

"No, the security department didn't let me see it. I heard from the people in the human resources department that he just used this as an excuse to make a fuss. As he was talking, he started arguing. Director Pan scolded him as a scoundrel, so he made a move. ..."

"You call me the secretary of the human resources department."

Soon, Zhang Wenhui, branch secretary and deputy director of the Human Resources Department, came to Tao Tang's office.

"President Tao, my name is Zhang Wenhui, Secretary of the Party Branch of the Human Resources Department." Zhang Wenhui "visited" Tao Tang alone for the first time, looking a little nervous.

"Are you at the scene of the dispute that happened just now?" Tao Tang sized up Zhang Wenhui, a thin, middle-aged man.

"exist."

"I'll verify a few things, don't worry, and report to me truthfully."

"Yes."

"According to my understanding, Huo Jianguo has been absent from work for a long time. When did the transportation company start reporting absenteeism?"

"Last month. I checked the attendance report of the Transportation Department. It was full attendance until April. Mr. Tao, absenteeism is a serious violation of discipline, and you will be fired within 15 days. We can't suppress it."

"Okay. The second question, is it true that Huo Jianguo did it first?"

"Yes. I was at the scene, and I kept trying to persuade him, but he said that what I said didn't count, and he was only arguing with Director Pan. He suddenly picked up the desk calendar and smashed Lao Pan. I hugged him, so that no more serious incidents occurred. as a result of……"

"Is Comrade Pan Chenggui not calm? For example, insulting Huo Jianguo..."

"Mr. Tao, Huo Jianguo was very restless at that time, and kept swearing. Old Pan was very calm. I think he is already very calm..."

"Okay. Third, it is said that there are other employees like Huo Jianguo, but they didn't deal with it. They reported full attendance, but they didn't go to work. Is there such a situation?"

Zhang Wenhui became nervous, "President Tao, I dare not lie, yes."

"Is there a transportation company?" Tao Tang asked.

"Have……"

"Comrade Zhang Wenhui, you are the secretary of the party branch of the Human Resources Department. Do you think Huo Jianguo came to your place to make trouble? Is there any reason?"

"Yes... that's why he thinks it's unfair..."

"Do you think it's fair?"

"Not fair...but..."

"Don't worry about it," Tao Tang interrupted Zhang Wenhui, "When Comrade Pan Chenggui was injured and hospitalized, you have to pick up the work of the human resources department. Organize an investigation, and you can send a notice to let all units report the attendance status. You Do you understand what I mean?"

"Understood, Mr. Tao."

"Comrade Zhang Wenhui, it is definitely wrong for Huo Jianguo to cause trouble and beat people with his hands. But it is possible that we managers are more responsible. The Human Resources Department is a very important management department. It’s been like this since ancient times. Moreover, you can’t think about being peacemakers, you must stand firm, have a clear-cut stand, and strictly implement the company’s personnel policies. I’ll leave it to you to investigate the attendance situation, so go ahead.”

In the afternoon, Deputy Chief Zhou Bing, who was in charge of security, reported to Tao Tang that the Xicheng branch had taken Huo Jianguo away and detained him for seven days.Tao Tang only said that he knew.

That night, Tao Tang went to the workshop again.After entering May, the production suddenly became tense, and most of the branch factories were on shifts. He developed the habit of going to the grassroots in Shengdong, and went to the grassroots after dinner.

That night, three drunken men broke into the guest house to see Tao Tang, but Xiaoye stopped him, saying that Mr. Tao was not in the room and had gone to the workshop.The leader had a tattoo on his arm, and couldn't believe that Tao Tang wasn't there, so he slammed on Tao Tang's door, cursing.Ye Mei was in a hurry, so she called the security department, a man got annoyed, snatched Ye Mei's phone, and slapped Ye Mei hard, "Smelly bastard, scare me with the security department, do you think I'm just scaring you?" The big one?" In a hurry, Xiaoye remembered that there was an alarm ringing in her room, and she was connected to the security department, and they rang the bell when they were not prepared.It’s a big trick to call the police. The police officers on duty arrived quickly and took away the three provocative guys.Zhao Qingmin was furious when he heard the news immediately, and ordered Fan Yong to deal with it severely.Fan Yong reported to Zhao Qingmin that the leader was Mu Jianhua, a well-known gangster from Red Star, and one of the other two was also unemployed and had a criminal record.

"I don't need to teach you how to do it, right? Boss Tao's safety can't be guaranteed. I don't think you, the Minister of Security, want to do it anymore." Zhao Qingmin lost his temper in a rare way.
