The Pentium Era - South to North

While Zhang Chen and the others were eating with Jessica in the restaurant, Zhao Zhigang called Zhao Zhilong and told him about the situation. Zhao Zhilong suddenly became nervous. What the hell, a broken needle record? Who would do that damn thing?

But Zhao Zhigang and Zhao Zhilong said this was very important and asked him to think of a solution. Zhao Zhilong quickly called several supervisors together to find a solution.

You can't say that they just asked for the broken needle record over there, and the result was that there was no broken needle. When you get here, your broken needle record came out immediately. That would be too false.

Zhao Zhilong felt that he could only think of a workaround to make them feel that although there was no record of broken needles here, he had taken care of the broken needles.

The "working class" and Zhao Zhilong said that it is simple, just saying that I am in charge of all the needles in the workshop. If a worker has a broken needle, he will replace it with me. Although I have not kept records, I Collect all broken needles in a box.

When everyone heard this, they all felt that this was a good way to deal with Americans, and that the "working class" had the wisdom.

But it cannot be said that all of them were broken with new needles. At first glance, it would appear that they were made in one go. Zhao Zhilong asked everyone to search everywhere in the workshop and in the drawers of every sewing machine. Finally, they found a few. Ten pieces.

For those crooked ones, Zhao Zhilong told the "working class" not to break them, and the crooked needles would be replaced so that they would look the same.

The "working class" says it makes sense.

They broke the other needles one by one, and the cross section looked new again. The "working class" ran to the third floor, where the machine was being installed. He poured all the broken needles into the engine oil and took them out. Wipe it clean so it looks perfect.

He put all the broken needles in a long, narrow plastic drawer of his sewing machine, and then placed the drawer on his desk.

Zhao Zhilong asked all the supervisors to explain. If Americans ask how to deal with broken needles, ask the workers to say that they don’t know and leave it to the supervisors. When asked, you can just say that it was left to the "working class." .

"Working class" is just called "working class" in the factory now, but everyone has forgotten its official name.

When it was first called this, the "working class" was a bit resistant. At that time, Wei Wenfang was still working as the office director in the factory, and the "working class" went to complain to Wei Wenfang.

Wei Wenfang said, what are you so upset about? This name was given by the boss. In the past, it was a minister who had meritorious service, and the emperor would give him a name. If you put it in our company, this is what the boss gave you.

Look, after you have this nickname, no one among the more than a thousand people in the factory knows you. Among the old heroes, you are the most famous for "working class" and "two points".

When he heard "working class", he thought it was true. He laughed and left. From then on, when others called him "working class", he no longer glared at him, and just called "working class" away.

As soon as they made arrangements here, a supervisor standing in front of the window shouted: "Here it comes, here it comes."

Zhao Zhilong walked to the window and took a look, and saw the Toyota Overlord driving in from outside. It was driven by a second-rate car today.

Zhao Zhilong hurried downstairs and met Zhang Chen and the others below. Lin Shuwan introduced to Jessica and Jerry that this was Factory Director Zhao.

Both of them were stunned for a moment. They had just said goodbye to Factory Manager Zhao, and why did another Factory Manager Zhao show up? Are there many Chinese people with the surname Zhao?

Lin Shuwan and Xu Qiaoxin didn't explain either. Fortunately, Zhao Zhilong and Zhao Zhigang looked nothing alike, and Jessica and the others couldn't tell that the two were brothers.

First, they went to see the workers' dormitories and canteen. Jessica and Jerry still looked at it very seriously. Then they went to Zhao Zhilong's office. Jessica saw two paintings on the wall, one was a bird's-eye view of the entire factory area, and the other was There is a rendering of the new factory building.

Lin Shuwan and Jessica said that this is the new factory building that their wedding dress factory is planning to build. Although the wedding dress factory only started construction this year, it is developing very quickly and they are ready to further expand production.

Jerry asked for a copy of their factory's management system and the job responsibilities of each position. He asked Xu Qiaoxin if he could translate it for them in the evening and give it to them when he sends them to Shanghai tomorrow.

Xu Qiaoxin said yes.

They then went to the workshop and looked at each workshop. Jessica saw that the production scale here was very large. Three workshops were already in production, and the fourth workshop was installing machines. It should be put into production soon. In addition, the previous When we arrived at the empty land, there were excavators working and their new factory building had started. Jessica was very satisfied with everything.

She didn't know that Zhao Zhilong asked Old Tan to send the excavator here as a temporary pretense. Zhang Chen was startled when he came in, and then he immediately understood that Zhao Zhilong's mind was really fast.

When he saw Zhang Chen's renderings yesterday, he understood his intention and called Lao Wan. Lao Wan said that he was no longer in Hangzhou and gave him Lao Tan's phone number. Zhao Zhilong told Lao Tan about the matter. Tan immediately said yes, what time do we need to arrive?

Zhang Chen looked at all this and didn't know whether he should feel happy or worried. In comparison, he seemed to prefer Zhao Zhigang, who was so naive, which made people feel more at ease.

Even when Jessica came out of the warehouse, she didn't ask about the broken needle record. But when she got upstairs and passed the "working class" desk and saw the broken needle in the plastic drawer on the table, she stopped and asked What's going on with these needles?

The "working class" immediately told her that it was replaced by workers. Whenever a worker's machine had a broken needle, he would use a broken needle and come to him to replace it with a new one.

Jessica asked, what about the broken end? What to do with it?

The "working class" said, of course he has to take it back together. If he doesn't take it back, he won't exchange it for him. Otherwise, what if the broken needle falls into the clothes? You see, these needles are all inside.

Jessica looked at it and nodded with satisfaction.

The "working class" glanced at Zhang Chen proudly, but found that Zhang Chen was staring at him with an ugly look on his face.

After the visit here, they were going back to the company. Along the way, Jessica didn't say a word. She looked out the window, her beautiful eyes blurred, as if she was thinking about something.

Zhang Chen looked at her from the side and felt that this figure was a bit moving. He wanted to draw it with a pen, but it was too presumptuous.

When they arrived upstairs at the company, Jessica and the others went to the financial center. Xiao Zhao showed them the workers' attendance status, salary payment status, and insurance status.

Zhang Chen was sitting in his office. He Hongmei walked in and asked him, how are you, master?

Zhang Chen said, I don’t know, the requirements seem very strict.

"Are you feeling a little annoyed?" He Hongmei asked, seeing that Zhang Chen was not in a high mood.

Zhang Chen nodded and said, a little bit, it feels like it’s not worth it.

Zhang Chen himself couldn't explain clearly what it was not worth.

"Don't think like this, Master." He Hongmei said, "The company has developed to a certain level. It is actually beneficial to cooperate with such a world-renowned company. If they can become so big, they must have their own reasons. It is also a good thing to be strict. , sometimes companies just need external push to improve further.”

Zhang Chen nodded: "What you said makes sense."

Zhang Chen looked at He Hongmei and laughed.

He Hongmei asked: "Why are you laughing?"

Zhang Chen said: "Your current situation seems to be much bigger than before."

He Hongmei smiled and said: "I also walked more places and saw more things, so I felt that I needed to restrain myself. In a small space, what you see is not yourself in the mirror. It’s just your own shadow on the ground and wall that will expand.”

Zhang Chen said yes. When I was your age, I felt arrogant and arrogant in a ravine.

"It would be bad if you were not arrogant when you were young." He Hongmei said with a smile.

Jessica and the others came in, He Hongmei smiled and said hello to Jessica and Jerry, and walked out.

Jessica and Lin Shuwan said something, Lin Shuwan said to Zhang Chen, and Jessica said, let’s have a meeting together.

Zhang Chen said yes.

The five people went to the conference table. Jessica and Jerry sat on one side, and Zhang Chen, Lin Shuwan, and Xu Qiaoxin sat on the other side by the window. Lin Shuwan and Xu Qiaoxin said, Qiaoxin, you have to take notes.

Xu Qiaoxin nodded and quickly took out a notebook and pen from her bag.

Jessica looked at Zhang Chen and the others, nodded and said, thank you for the reception, and I am very happy to meet you. From yesterday to today, we have been in contact with you, we visited your store, your company and factory, It can be said that you have left a deep impression on us and we hope to establish a cooperative relationship with you.

However, we at Target are a company with social responsibilities and strict disciplines and standards. All companies that cooperate with us need to undergo strict inspections. This is the basis for cooperation between both parties.

Through these two days of visits, I found that you have many excellent things, but there are also some things that are not good enough. Please forgive me for my frankness. I think that frankness between both parties is another basis for our cooperation. You agree ?

Zhang Chen nodded and said I agreed.

Zhang Chen listened to what Jessica said just now and felt that this woman was not simple, she was not old, but her words were impeccable.

Jessica went on to say that the companies we work with must first pass the WCA factory inspection. Let Jerry tell you the relevant requirements. I hope you can be fully prepared and go smoothly. pass.

Sure enough, it was WCA. Lin Shuwan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although WCA's factory inspection was very strict and difficult to pass in one try, fortunately Lin Shuwan had experienced it and felt confident.

Jerry took out two identical folders and gave one to Xu Qiaoxin. He opened one himself. There was a thick stack of WCA factory inspection documents inside.

WCA, the full name is Workplace Conditions Assessment, that is, work environment assessment. The basis for WCA audit standards is the GSCP standard adopted by large retail organizations around the world.

WCA factory inspection has five major modules, namely: 1. Labor; 2. Working hours and wages; 3. Health and safety; 4. Management system; 5. Environment.

Jerry started from the first page and explained to Xu Qiaoxin one by one the content of each examination and its scoring criteria.

Xu Qiaoxin recorded each item.

They were busy, Jessica and Zhang Chen were sitting, but nothing happened. Jessica turned sideways slightly, looking at the canal outside the window and the "Splendid Jiangnan" opposite. She looked at the coal pulling in the canal. The boats, one after another connected together, were very long and seemed to have no end, moving so slowly in the canal.

Zhang Chen observed her quietly, and he found that she was really beautiful when she didn't speak and was looking at a certain place blankly, thinking about something.

Jessica seemed to realize that Zhang Chen was looking at her. She turned her head and smiled at Zhang Chen. When she smiled, she was dazzling and really looked like a star.
