The rise of a great power: starting with military industry

Chapter 265 If Han Weidong doesn't care, I will

The next evening.

The secretary reminded Liu Tao that according to his schedule, he had to go to Panshan Hospital to visit Zhao Guoping and his lover.

Liu Tao was getting up and taking a car home, where he took a good shower and changed into clean clothes.

At this time, the secretary had already bought him a basket of fruit and a bouquet of flowers.

The driver took Liu Tao to Panshan Hospital. Liu Tao walked towards the inpatient department, holding the fruit in one hand and the bouquet of flowers in the other.

After looking at the ward number, Liu Tao quickly found it.

"Congratulations, you have a baby!" Liu Tao smiled when he saw Zhao Guoping holding the baby.

Zhao Guoping had a smile on his face, and it was obvious that being a father for the first time made him very happy.

But it's normal. No parent would be unhappy when they just have a child.

There is no parent who doesn't love his or her children.

The birth of a child brings immense joy to parents.

"Thank you!" Zhao Guoping said with a smile.

"What a cute little guy, not like my chubby little boy." Liu Tao smiled, and then handed the flowers in his hand to Zhao Guoping's wife: "You should have a good rest, take enough maternity leave, and take good care of your body, so as not to get sick. There is always work to be done, and a temporary rest is for better work in the future."

"Thank you for your concern!" Zhao Guoping's wife took the flowers with a smile on her face. After all, she was just a 20-year-old woman with a high recovery ability. Now she is no different from a normal person.

After staying for a while, Liu Tao said goodbye and left.

After checking the time, Liu Tao went to the factory canteen and asked Master Chen to cook him a bowl of noodles.

Master Chen cooked the noodles himself and brought them to Liu Tao.

"Director, I heard that if you go to other factories, you will be given housing just like here. Is this true?" Master Chen sat down opposite Liu Tao and asked in a low voice.

Liu Tao took a sip of noodle soup, then nodded and said, "Yes, that's the policy, but there is a prerequisite. The house here will be taken back by the factory, and then you will be assigned a house to another factory."

"What's the matter? Master Chen, do you want to apply to work in another factory?" Liu Tao looked at Master Chen curiously.

Master Chen used to be a chef at Panshan Machinery Factory and has been working there for more than ten years.

When the houses were distributed before, Master Chen was allocated a house because of his good work performance and was rated excellent many times.

After Master Chen was assigned the house, he did not slack off in his work and always worked diligently, which earned him a good reputation in the factory.

Master Chen said a little embarrassedly: "My son went to Factory 356, and my wife just gave birth to a child over there. She plans to apply to be a teacher there in the future. I want to apply to Factory 356 as well, so I can help them."

Liu Tao immediately understood.

It is truly pitiful to see the love of parents all over the world. Even when their children are married and have children, they still want to help their children.

Liu Tao knew that Master Chen’s son was a worker who used to produce Type 78 pistols and was transferred to Factory 356 a few months ago.

Part of the factory building of Factory 356 has been built and production has started, so naturally workers are needed.

In order to allow everyone to better integrate into Panshan Machinery Factory, workers from these factories are often transferred to Panshan Machinery Factory. After training, some are transferred back to their original factories, and some are transferred to other factories.

Master Chen's son was just an ordinary worker, and it was not possible for him to get a house so quickly after being transferred to Factory 356.

But Master Chen was different. Once he was transferred to Factory 356, he would be allocated a house according to the factory policy. Master Chen's daughter-in-law was a teacher, and she probably married Master Chen's son before the time came for her to be allocated a house.

"It's good to go to Factory 356. Our headquarters will be there in the future." Liu Tao said with a smile, "It doesn't matter where you go. You have to remember to work hard."

Liu Tao didn't say much. After all, Master Chen's choice was human nature and the most normal thing.

Liu Tao also knew that there were actually quite a few people like Master Chen.

Of the old employees of Panshan Machinery Factory, probably less than one-third are still working there.

Some of them applied to other factories because their children were transferred to other factories and they wanted to reunite with their families. Some of them applied to other factories because they had high ideological awareness and wanted to help other factories get back on track as soon as possible.

There are various reasons.

The factory often chooses to respect this situation.

"Director, what if I go to Factory 356 and Factory 356 doesn't give me housing? What should I do?" Master Chen was a little worried. "Factory 356 was a big factory with many employees and needed many houses. If there are no houses to be allocated, or if they give priority to Factory 356's original employees..."

Liu Tao burst out laughing.

"Don't worry, if anyone violates the policy, you can go find the director of Factory 356, Han Weidong. If Han Weidong also violates the policy, you can come back to me." Liu Tao said with a faint smile.

Han Weidong was promoted by Liu Tao and was previously the deputy director of Panshan Machinery Factory.

Han Weidong was previously in charge of the third-line factories that were merged into Panshan Machinery Factory. He was also responsible for the reconstruction of those factories and turned them into production bases.

When Factory 356 was merged into Panshan Machinery Factory, Liu Tao asked Han Weidong to be responsible for the construction of Factory 356 and also appointed Han Weidong as the director of Factory 356.

In addition to serving as the director of Factory 356, Han Weidong is also the deputy general manager of China Southwest Ordnance Industry Group Corporation and a member of its party group.

If Han Weidong had not had so little experience and no background, Liu Tao would have wanted to promote him to be the general manager of China Southwest Industrial Group Corporation.

Upon hearing this, Master Chen immediately showed his delight.

"Thank you, Director. I feel relieved after hearing your words." Master Chen said happily.

Liu Tao shook his head and said with a smile: "This is just the factory policy. All we need to do is follow the policy."

"As the factory director, I also follow the factory's policies and will not favor anyone. As long as everyone works diligently and contributes to the country, the organization will see it," Liu Tao said with a smile.

While eating noodles, I chatted with Master Chen.

He would occasionally go to the cafeteria to eat noodles and chat with Master Chen and others to learn more about what was going on.

After all, he didn't have enough time to keep in contact with them, and he didn't know as much about some things in the factory as Master Chen and others.

You can always hear things from them that Liu Tao cannot hear, such as how a leader is evaluated among the workers, whether the trade union work is done well, and whether the party-mass work is truly implemented.

Even these people have sharp eyes to see who are the bad guys.

Although Liu Tao also has a secretary and holds a meeting at least once a week, everyone tends to report good news but not bad news, or they only talk about current affairs and don't bring up other matters.

But Master Chen and others are different. They are well-informed and dare to tell the truth to him as the factory director.

This is extremely valuable.
