"I know the new hydraulics."

At Han Jiangyue's home, Li Huidong was silent for a moment after listening to the situation about the new hydraulics introduced by his daughter, and said in a heavy mood:

"Their new factory director is Jiao Ronglin, who took office through job competition. At that time, the province advocated the youthfulness and knowledge of the cadre team. New Hydraulics was acting as the factory director by Secretary Xu Xinkun. He was older and had no education, which did not meet the requirements of youth. Therefore, the Machinery Department arranged for him to retreat to the second line, and then through the competition, a young and educated comrade was selected as the factory director of New Hydraulics."

"I know that kind of competition." Han Jiangyue said with a lip silence, "When I was in the Lecheng Economic Committee, they also had competitions, just to find a group of people to talk about their policy programs. Whoever says it well will be the factory director, and they can also appoint middle-level cadres themselves, called the formation of the cabinet."

"Oh, I've all learned from abroad." Li Huidong said self-deprecatingly. He was the director of the Mechanical Department at that time, and he was the main person in charge of this matter. Thinking of the way that everyone was trying to copy foreign elections and formed a cabinet on a whim, he was really ashamed.

"Then what?"

"Then, Jiao Ronglin defeated other competitors through his speech and was appointed as the factory director of New Hydraulics. After he came to power, he carried out a series of reforms and appointed a group of middle-level cadres who were as eloquent as him. There were new reform measures almost every day in the factory, but the changes became more and more chaotic. Originally, the products of New Hydraulics had some foundation, and the domestic market sales were relatively optimistic. Jiao Ronglin had been struggling for two years, and the product quality was no longer good, and after-sales service was even worse and worse, and he fell to the current level."

"If it happens like this, isn't anyone responsible?" Han Jiangyue said annoyed.

Li Huidongdao: "Who is responsible? Am I, the former director of the Machinery Department, responsible?"

"You have a responsibility, too." Han Jiangyue said, "But, Jiao Ronglin must be the first to bear the brunt."

Li Huidong sighed: "He also made reforms, not for his own self-interest. Tangfu County Economic Committee investigated that Jiao Ronglin did not have any economic problems. Xin Hydraulics suffered serious losses, one was because he made some mistakes in his business, and the second was the influence of national policies, which was also impossible."

"So, the new hydraulics collapsed like this? Don't you think of a way to cheer it up again?" Han Jiangyue asked.

Li Huidong said: "Why don't you think? But what's the use of thinking? To change the situation of the new hydraulics, you need effective cadres and financial investment. The new hydraulics now owes the bank millions. If you want the new hydraulics to resume production, you must first pay off these debts, otherwise the bank will not be willing to provide new loans at all. Without funds, how can it be done out of thin air?"

“Can’t the province provide some funds?”

"But there is not only one new hydraulic in the province." Li Huidong, "There are a large number of enterprises that are more important than new hydraulics. Funds and suitable leading cadres are all problems. If there is no suitable person, even if there is capital investment, it will eventually be wasted. There are already more than a dozen lessons in our province."

"But I heard that the situation in the factory is very bad now. And my master is so old and has asthma. I heard that I can't afford to buy medicine. I feel really uncomfortable when I hear it." Han Jiangyue said with red eyes. After all, she had worked in the Lecheng Economic Committee for a while and was quite familiar with the situation within the system. She could understand what Li Huidong said, and knew that Li Huidong was right. The only hurdle she couldn't overcome was that she felt that the new hydraulics were her parents' home, and she couldn't accept it.

"Oh, this is the price of reform." Li Huidong said unregulated words. In fact, he was worried about companies like Xin Hydraulics? Han Jiangyue's discomfort was more emotionally based, while Li Huidong was thinking about this matter from the perspective of the director of the Provincial Economic Commission. These companies are resources of the province. Seeing each company in losses and unable to find a way to bring them back to life, can Li Huidong not worry?

"You really feel bad, so send some money to your master to help him solve some practical difficulties." Li Huidong gave his daughter an idea. He knew that his daughter's salary is high now, so it would be a waste of money to take out one or two hundred yuan to help the former master. One or two hundred yuan is a timely help for the employees in a loss-making company.

Han Jiangyue nodded and said, "That's what I planned. However, I have to go to Tangfu first to see what's going on. Secretary Xu is now retreating to the second line and should be able to play a role. Why did the factory reach such a level that he didn't say anything?"

Li Huidong said: "He has his difficulties, too. Jiao Ronglin's building of the cabinet was approved by the Tangfu County Economic Committee, so Xu Xinkun couldn't say anything. However, there is no need to go to Tangfu specifically. It's almost the Chinese New Year, and it's rare for you to come back to Mingzhou. New hydraulics are not something you can change. You should just send some money to your master."

Han Jiangyue shook her head firmly and said, "No, Dad, I have to go and have a look. New Hydraulics is the first place I work after graduating from technical school. I want to go and see what's going on."

Li Huidong compromised and said, "Okay, it's okay to go and have a look, so you won't be thinking about it when you return to Pengcheng. I'll arrange a car for you, go and go back quickly."

The next day, Li Huidong found a subsidiary company and asked for a jeep to take Han Jiangyue to Tangfu County. Of course, there are long-distance buses from the provincial capital to the county town, but it was too hard to take a long-distance bus. Secondly, Han Jiangyue brought some money to his master He Guihua, and it was not safe to take a long-distance bus. Although two rounds of "critical crackdowns" have passed, social security is still a bit messy. The gangsters of the car are not just talking about it. It is dangerous for a girl to take a long-distance bus with a considerable amount of money.

Of course, another reason is that Li Huidong does have such privileges. If he does not have the privilege of borrowing cars from subordinate companies at any time, all the above difficulties will not become difficult.

"Xiao Wang, go to the county town to find a place to have some food. Just wait for me here at three or four o'clock in the afternoon."

The jeep drove into the factory area of ​​Xin Hydraulics. Han Jiangyue got off the car in front of the office building and ordered the driver Xiao Wang.

"Okay, Section Chief Han, I'll go back to eat something. When you finish the work, we'll leave." Xiao Wang agreed obediently. When he was leaving today, his leader only told him that the person who was taking the bus was a section chief of the Lecheng Economic Commission. As for his background, it was not what he, the little driver, should care about. He only knew that his leader was quite respectful to Section Chief Han, so he knew what he should do.

After sending the driver and jeep away, Han Jiangyue had the time to carefully observe the new hydraulic pressure that had been away for several years. After a few years, there have been many changes in the new hydraulic pressure. A bicycle-stop shed was built in front of the office building, and the public toilets beside the walls were rebuilt, which seemed a little higher-end, but all these changes could not cover up a word, that is "decline".

When Han Jiangyue was in the new hydraulics, although the buildings in the factory were not very luxurious and majestic, they were at least neat and intact. The trees on both sides of the road would be painted with waist-high white ash every autumn, which was very beautiful. The ground was cleaned every day, and there were also factory-wide cleaning every week, and there were basically no sanitary "dead corners". All these details made people feel that the factory was full of vitality and people's mental outlook was also positive.

Now, Han Jiangyue felt a deep evening air. Looking around, there were dead branches and leaves everywhere, thick dust fell on the windowsills of the buildings, and some window glass was broken, and they were just blocked with wooden boards or thick cardboards. It made people feel that the staff working inside had no intention of staying there for a long time. As for the workers and cadres walking on the road, they couldn't see it. It was obvious that the Chinese New Year was going to be in a few days, but few people were wearing new clothes, and the gray expression on their faces showed a bit of withering and helplessness.

"Hey, is it Xiao Han?"

Finally someone noticed Han Jiangyue, an uninvited guest, perhaps because her clothes looked too bright and were a little out of place in this dilapidated factory, which attracted everyone's attention.

Han Jiangyue looked over and recognized the other party at once. She was also her old colleague in the assembly workshop. She was named Zou Sulin. Han Jiangyue walked forward a few steps, bowed slightly to Zou Sulin, and said, "Master Zou, I wish you a New Year in advance."

"Hey, happy new year, happy new year." Zou Sulin responded repeatedly, with a sincere smile on his face. Han Jiangyue's image among the old workers of Xin Hydraulics was very good. Everyone thought that this girl was down-to-earth, willing to work hard, and had excellent skills. She belonged to the "more successful" young people.

"Xiao Han, why did you come to Tangfu? I heard that you are working in a Hong Kong-funded enterprise in Pengcheng. Your income is pretty good, right?" Zou Sulin asked about Han Jiangyue's recent situation when all his acquaintances met.

"The income is okay." Han Jiangyue said, taking out two packs of Daqianmen cigarettes that he had prepared from the travel bag he brought, stuffed them into Zou Sulin's hand, and said, "Master Zou, I'm in a hurry and it's not convenient to bring anything. These two packs of cigarettes are something I respect you."
