Chapter 210 Expected Difficulties
(Bow to thank "Changjuanhe" for its monthly ticket support!)
The train rumbled out of the platform. Looking at the Yanjing platform gradually moving away, Su Han breathed a sigh of relief and said to Zhou Ming: "I didn't expect that there were so many people taking the train today."
Listening to Su Han's voice, she was obviously still scared of the crowds at Yanjing Station just now. Zhou Ming smiled and explained to her: "There is no way. Now the Spring Festival is approaching. These people who have worked in Yanjing for a year always have to go home for the New Year. But now it's okay. If the capital's economy develops in another ten or twenty years, and when there are more people coming here to work, you will really not understand the abortion at the train station."
Zhou Ming is a fact. Since Chinese people have a tradition of reunion in their bones, especially those who work outside are homesick and have to go home even more. This will lead to China's unique Spring Festival travel peak. The Spring Festival holiday must be said to some extent, to adapt to the needs of the public.
"If it were Zhou Ming, you said, we are also rushing for the Spring Festival travel rush now?" Su Han asked.
Zhou Ming didn’t know when the word Spring Festival travel came into being, but I think as long as the Spring Festival is still there, as long as the economic development is uneven and someone wants to go out to work, there will be Spring Festival travel. However, Su Han basically did not go out in Linyang before, so naturally he had never experienced the Spring Festival travel.
"It's just that our Spring Festival travel rush is not as hard as others."
Zhou Ming stretched and said that what he said was also true. After all, they had done so many things in Yanjing, and they were personally awarded by Mr. Yang. As for friends like Du Peng, it was a little bit of a matter of having two sleeper tickets. That's right. After signing with CCTV, they asked Du Peng to get two tickets back to Linyang.
However, this trip to Yanjing was of great significance to Zhou Ming. At first, they just wanted to advertise on CCTV and give exclusive titles to CCTV Spring Festival Gala. However, they met with that mysterious foreign girl on the street, and later debated at Yanjing University reminded Zhou Ming of some historical events. So Zhou Ming immediately contacted Du Peng and reported his thoughts.
Originally, Zhou Ming just wanted to do a political gambling that he would win, but he didn't expect that his actions would directly deviate from history. Dramatic changes in Eastern Europe began to break out early, and Chairman Dong Zhen also stepped down early.
Thinking of this, Zhou Ming suddenly had an inspiration and suddenly thought: If these things were ahead of time, will the incident that affected the entire country come early?
Zhou Ming then shook his head, mocking himself in his heart that his imagination was a bit too big. However, at this time, Zhou Ming did not expect that the random thoughts he thought at this time actually became a reality later.
At this time, the train was no longer as fast as in later generations. From Yanjing, Zhou Ming and Su Han arrived in Linyang on the third day.
As we got off the train, we saw two familiar faces waiting on the platform. They were Yuan Zhigang, director of the sales department of Factory 760, and Li Hua, director of the production department.
These two are old men who have been left behind after two changes. They understand that Zhou Ming is the only emperor in the factory, so they volunteered to pick up the station.
Yuan Zhigang and Li Hua came up to take Zhou Ming and Su Han's luggage and said, "Boss Zhou and Manager Su are back. We have a backbone. There is still a lot of work in the factory, so we are waiting for the two leaders to come back to make their ideas."
Although Zhou Ming has been in Yanjing some time ago and has been busy with some great things, Factory 760 is his home after all, and his parents have been in the factory all their lives. Even if he was a pity in his previous life, he has at least made up for it in this life, so he still attaches great importance to it. Zhou Ming has also known about the news here by phone.
Because of this, Zhou Ming was not in a hurry to say anything, but just waved his hand to signal back to say something.
It is said that one general is a nest, and one leader has a great influence on the people below. After Yuan Zhigang and Li Hua saw Zhou Ming so calm, they all calmed down.
Then Zhou Ming and Su Han got into the only crown sedan in the factory and returned to the factory. They took Yuan Zhigang and Li Hua directly to the conference room of the administrative building.
The four people, plus Sun Jie, the office director who had been waiting here, came to the conference room together. Zhou Ming first announced to them that Factory 760 has officially signed a contract with CCTV, and that their Babao Porridge will also be exclusively named the major news of this year's CCTV Spring Festival Gala.
Upon hearing this news, the three of them immediately applauded excitedly. They were not acting in front of Zhou Ming. After all, in the eyes of ordinary people, CCTV is a very distant central department. Now Zhou Ming can advertise their small factory abandoned by the county to CCTV!
Looking at the expressions of these people, Su Han felt even more proud of Zhou Ming, afraid that these people would still not know about Zhou Ming's walk into Zhongnanhai and being personally commended by Mr. Yang and awarded the Red Star Medal. Otherwise, they might be surprised to see how much!
Zhou Ming does not have the casual personality. It doesn't matter if you show off in front of these small cadres who have lived in small counties all their lives. Zhou Ming just kept silent about this matter.
But although Zhou Ming felt that he was already very low-key and no longer talked about his most glorious deeds, in the eyes of Yuan Zhigang, Li Hua and Sun Jie, Zhou Ming was already the most powerful leader since the establishment of the 760 factory.
After a lot of excited praise, Zhou Ming asked Su Han to take out a stack of invoices to Sun Jie and said, "Director Sun, these are the consumption invoices for Manager Su and I on a business trip in Yanjing. Your office will record them."
"Boss Zhou and Manager Su, you are the top leaders in the factory. The factory should be reimbursed for your business trip expenses, so there is no need to record them." Sun Jie said with a smile.
But Zhou Ming said seriously: "Director Sun, this is the rule. To reimburse the business trip expenses, you must have a voucher record. No matter any expenses, you must record them in detail. The money in the factory is earned by all the employees of the factory through their hard work. We must be responsible for every penny. Otherwise, if you take hundreds today and don’t report the account the day after tomorrow, then will the account in our factory be less and less unclear? So Director Sun, I hope you must keep this in the future. No one is exceptional, including me and Manager Su!"
Looking at Zhou Ming's serious expression, Sun Jie understood the importance of the matter. So he immediately took the invoice from Su Han and said, "Okay, please don't worry, Boss Zhou, I will definitely record it carefully."
Zhou Ming nodded with satisfaction: "No rules can lead to a square. Since our factory has a reimbursement system, we must follow the rules in a simplified manner."
The three of them nodded together and said, "Okay, please don't worry, Boss Zhou, we will definitely remember it."
"How did the improvement work of Babao Porridge beer do?" Zhou Ming asked.
After what happened just now, these three people knew Zhou Ming's personality, so they didn't talk nonsense, so they asked the office to bring some cans of eight-treasure porridge samples to Zhou Ming: "Boss Zhou, after you left, the comrades in the production department did not rest. They were still working hard. This is the improved eight-treasure porridge sample. Please try it with Manager Su."
Zhou Ming took the eight-treasure porridge and opened it to taste it. He nodded. The rough taste of the eight-treasure porridge is almost the same as what he had eaten in later generations. Zhou Ming also gave Su Han a can. She tasted it and nodded to Zhou Ming, indicating that the taste was good.
"Director Li, it seems that your production office was not idle during the period when Manager Su and I went to Yanjing. We did a good job in improving the eight-treasure porridge! The taste now has improved a lot compared to before," said Zhou Ming.
"Thank you, Boss Zhou," said Li Hua, "this is all about your guidance, Boss Zhou, you are well-instructed, and we have always been doing things according to Boss Zhou's guiding ideology."
"Where are those people in Xiling Canning Factory?" Zhou Ming asked suddenly.
"They all thank you very much for Boss Zhou. They are very energetic. They use their past experience in producing canned food and have also provided a lot of suggestions for improving the taste of Babao Porridge." Li Hua replied.
Zhou Ming said: "Director Li, you have to remember that our 760 Factory was originally just an ordinary metal factory. It is completely a layman in producing eight-treasure porridge. At most, it can only produce canned boxes. As for the taste of eight-treasure porridge, it still depends on the comrades from the cannery factory. Do you understand?"
Listening to Zhou Ming's words, Li Hua felt unconsciously excited, and then nodded in fear.
In fact, Zhou Ming said this just to hit him, because Zhou Ming knew very well that Li Hua wanted to take all the credit on him before, which was understandable. Most people would do this, but it was extremely unfavorable in the long-term development of the company, so Zhou Ming had to deliberately mention the matter of Xiling Canning Factory and take the opportunity to hit him.
As an old agency in the factory, Li Hua certainly felt it keenly, so he could have such a performance.
Of course, this kind of reward is normal. Just hit it, and Zhou Ming will not pursue it too much. Then Zhou Ming turned his eyes to Yuan Zhigang and asked: "Director Yuan, when you picked me up at the station today, you said that you had something to wait for me to come back to make an idea. Is there something wrong with sales?"
In response to Zhou Ming's question, Yuan Zhigang's face looked very bad: "I'm sorry, Boss Zhou, our progress is very unsatisfactory in the sales of Babao Porridge. During the period when Boss Zhou, you went to Yanjing, we have gone to many supply and marketing cooperatives, but no one is willing to buy our products."
Zhou Ming knew that Yuan Zhigang was afraid that he would criticize him or even punish him, because before, whether it was Li Hua or Sun Jie, they at least completed the task. At most, they had problems with their attitude, but they really did not complete the task!
So Zhou Ming said to him: "Director Yuan, don't be nervous. After all, our Babao Porridge product is a new thing. Moreover, our factory used to have no food sales channels, let alone the situation at Xiling Canning Factory. Now I'm also driving the ducks for you to put them on the shelves, so it's expected that the difficulties will be incurred at the beginning. I won't blame you."
Yuan Zhigang then breathed a sigh of relief. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and kept thanking Zhou Ming.
Zhou Ming said again: "This is the case, Director Yuan, please help me make an appointment with the heads of several large supply and marketing cooperatives nearby, and have a meal and have a chat."
"Okay, Boss Zhou." Yuan Zhigang nodded.
