Chapter 269
Zhou Andong said seriously: "What does the scholarship have to do with you?"
"How does it have nothing to do with me?" Liu Qingjun was a bit anxious, "The electronics factory has been acquired by the winery. We don't want other benefits. Because we haven't created wealth, we have no qualification to enjoy the fruits of others' labor."
"But the children are different; they are the future, the hope. And this is a scholarship, which is rewarding in nature and different from other welfare benefits. As long as you get into university, you should be treated equally."
Zhou Andong looked at Gu Bing: "What Old Liu said still has a little bit of reason."
Gu Bing nodded: "How about we hold a meeting to study it?"
"Study what?" Liu Qingjun lost his temper, "Director, Secretary, I always thought you were crisp and neat in doing things, but I didn't expect you to be so dawdling. I can tell you, our factory has a girl who got into Tsinghua."
"This is Tsinghua. When the girl has a future, as a child who went out from Jiangzhou and the electronics factory, don't you, as elders, feel that it's face-saving?"
Zhou Andong and Gu Bing looked at each other, then laughed out loud.
This laugh left Liu Qingjun completely confused.
"What are you laughing at?"
Gu Bing caught his breath: "Today we met a little girl named Gao Yue'e, who also got into Tsinghua."
Liu Qingjun was stunned, and then he realized he had been played: "You... really..."
Liu Qingjun smiled bitterly. He really didn't know what to say; there wasn't a bit of the look of a leader: "So, the person the girl met was you."
Zhou Andong said with a smile: "You go back and count how many children got in, and report it to the factory as soon as possible. We'll issue the bonus next Sunday, have a big celebration, and celebrate. Your factory should also put on a few programs."
"I think that works!" Liu Qingjun was happy, "I'll go back and prepare now."
He turned his bicycle, got on, and left in a hurry.
Zhou Andong said to Gu Bing: "Let's go, let's go see Yu Qingyu."
Gu Bing said in surprise: "Didn't you say you wanted to let him hang for a while and knock him down?"
Zhou Andong said: "It's been almost half a year; that's enough."
Yu Qingyu was the director of the factory office and had been in this position for almost ten years. You must know that his position was the factory director's housekeeper. But when Gao Qingkui and Zhang Deyou left, all their trusted followers like Qu Hongqi and Chang Tai followed them, but he stayed behind. What surprised Zhou Andong even more was that Yu Qingyu was very clean, simply a clear stream in the winery.
Therefore, Zhou Andong let him continue to sit in the position of factory office director and didn't move him. However, some things cannot be seen on the surface; if you should knock, you should knock. He handed over the work of the factory office to the logistics section, as if there was no such department as the factory office at all.
"Director, Secretary!" Yu Qingyu saw Zhou Andong and Gu Bing coming together and was very surprised. He stood up from behind his desk and greeted them.
Zhou Andong said with a smile: "Notify Ge Zhengrong and Fang Qiao, borrow your place to hold a temporary meeting, it'll only take ten minutes."
"Okay!" Yu Qingyu nodded. Originally, a phone call would have sufficed, but he still went to notify them in person.
At the moment he went out, a smile appeared on his face. Although he was upright, a new emperor brings new courtiers; he really didn't know when he would be removed.
For the past half year, his heart had been uneasy. Zhou Andong didn't move him, but the work he should have done was handed to others, which was a disguised way of letting him sit on the bench.
Now Zhou Andong and Gu Bing ran to his office and even borrowed his place to hold a temporary meeting, which proved that he had passed the test for the time being.
Soon, Yu Qingyu returned, followed by Ge Zhengrong and Fang Qiao.
"Director, Secretary!" Ge Zhengrong and Fang Qiao walked in and greeted Zhou Andong and Gu Bing.
Zhou Andong said: "There's only one stool here at Old Yu's, so let's stand and talk."
"No!" Fang Qiao moved Yu Qingyu's chair out, placed it behind Zhou Andong, and placed the only stool behind Gu Bing, saying with a smile.
"Leaders sit, you stand, we feel too much pressure."
Fang Qiao was Seeing Jian Qiu's absolute trusted follower, one year younger than Zhou Andong, and was now the union chairwoman. Don't look at her age; her business level was quite high, and she did things vigorously. This was also the main reason why Seeing Jian Qiu promoted her to the position of chairwoman.
Zhou Andong and Gu Bing didn't stand on ceremony and sat down.
"You tell them?" Zhou Andong looked at Gu Bing.
Gu Bing waved his hand, took out a cigarette and lit it, then threw half a pack of cigarettes to Zhou Andong.
Zhou Andong came over, lit one, and then threw the cigarettes to Yu Qingyu.
Yu Qingyu hurriedly caught them, so excited he almost cried. Just such an ordinary move explained that everything in the past had been turned over, and Zhou Andong had truly accepted him.
Zhou Andong puffed on his cigarette: "It's nothing big. College entrance exam scores are out. Didn't we set up a scholarship fund? I was thinking, let's issue the bonus to the children who got into university next Sunday."
"Let's have a big celebration, have fun. The general factory, each branch factory, plus the electronics factory and development company, all have to put on programs. Don't make those programs too serious; since it's a celebration, let everyone be happy."
Ge Zhengrong said with a smile: "This is a good thing."
Zhou Andong continued: "Old Yu, you are responsible for contacting each branch factory, counting the number of people and the schools they applied for, and then handing it to Ge Zhengrong."
"Okay!" Yu Qingyu agreed with high spirits.
Zhou Andong said to Ge Zhengrong: "Once the number of people and the amount of the bonus are determined, you have to greet the bank in advance, so the money can't be taken out when the time comes. In addition, buy a gift for each child, the price shouldn't exceed 200. As for what to buy, discuss it with Old Tang from the supply section."
Ge Zhengrong nodded: "I will definitely handle the matter well, but the standard of a 200-yuan gift per person, isn't this standard too high?"
Zhou Andong said: "These children are children of factory employees; they are no different from our own children. Spending 200 yuan to buy them a gift isn't much."
"Besides, the general factory, branch factories, plus the electronics factory and development company, have more than 6,000 employees, many of whom are dual-employee families. There aren't many suitable candidates, so it won't cost much money."
Gu Bing said: "Are we short of money?"
Ge Zhengrong smiled: "Not short. With the arrival of the graduation season, Jiang Xiaobai's sales have skyrocketed, especially Jiang Xiaomei; sales are rising in a straight line. Market feedback says the reputation is quite good. Last month I said we could pay 20 million in profit tax this year, but now it seems I was conservative."
"Isn't that it!" Gu Bing said: "Not short of money, so don't be stingy."
Fang Qiao giggled: "Director, what is our union's task?"
"Prepare for the celebration." Zhou Andong said: "You have to hurry up; there's only one week left."
"Guarantee to complete the task." Fang Qiao saluted in a model way.
"Alright, that's it, disperse." Zhou Andong smiled, stood up, and walked out with Gu Bing.
Back in the office, just as his butt hit the chair, the office door was knocked.
"Come in!"
The office door was pushed open, and Jiang Yuyue walked in with a smile: "Brother-in-law!"
Zhou Andong said with a smile: "Why did you run over? Your sister left."
"Why talk about her?" Jiang Yuyue muttered dissatisfiedly: "I have something to ask you."
Zhou Andong asked curiously: "What is it?"
Jiang Yuyue said: "Borrow money!"
