Chapter 50: A single sound shocks the world

~7 min read 1,349 words

"Vice Factory Director Qian, these words of yours make me feel very ashamed." Whether it was true or false, the expression on Gu Bing's face was sincere, "Seeking development for the factory and seeking benefits for the employees, isn't this all what I should do?"

"That's how it's said, but how many people can actually do it?" As soon as Qian Zhen finished speaking, he saw Zhou Andong standing at the gate, leaning against the wall smoking. He left Gu Bing and walked over quickly.

Gu Bing opened his mouth wide. What's going on? I haven't heard enough yet. I just got a taste of vanity and haven't had time to savor it, so why did you, old man, leave?

Seeing Qian Zhen coming over, Zhou Andong hurriedly greeted him. He still respected Qian Zhen's character. This was a kind-hearted person who didn't fight or grab, and had his own bottom line in his heart. In many matters, he refused to be in the same boat as Gao Qingkui and Zhang Zui, so his days at the winery weren't easy either.

"Comrade Zhou Andong!" Zhou Andong's hand was also grabbed by Qian Zhen, who shook it vigorously, "You are a very talented and wise young man. The fact that the factory can come back to life this time is entirely your credit. If it weren't for your planning, it's hard to imagine how these more than a thousand employees would get through this Spring Festival."

When Gu Bing heard this from behind, he was very unwilling. The way this was said, how did it all become his credit? It's like I worked hard for nothing...

Zhou Andong laughed, "I am also a winery employee, no different from others. If they can't eat, I will also be hungry. So I am not as great as you think, but rather very selfish. Doing all this, in fact, is just for that two-mao bonus per bottle of liquor."

Qian Zhen was stunned, and then laughed out loud, "I just like young people like you who dare to do, dare to think, and dare to take responsibility. No pretense, no hypocrisy. To tell you the truth, I also want to earn that two-mao bonus, but I don't have your ability."

After saying this, Qian Zhen patted Zhou Andong on the shoulder heavily, "Can you tell me, how did you offend Zhang Zui?"

Zhou Andong hesitated for a moment, but still said, "I caught him having an affair with a female employee in the warehouse."

Qian Zhen frowned, "Really?"

Zhou Andong said, "How could I joke about such a thing?"

Qian Zhen said solemnly, "Tell me the name of that female employee, and I will go to the city to report Zhang Zui immediately."

Zhou Andong asked, "Can you kill him in one blow?"

Qian Zhen shook his head, "No!"

Zhou Andong said coldly, "Since we want to take him down, we must kill him in one blow. We can't give him a chance to breathe. A centipede dies but doesn't stiffen; its harm is even greater."

Qian Zhen looked at Zhou Andong blankly. He didn't know how to describe Zhou Andong at this moment. He felt that this kid wasn't as kind as he looked on the surface.

Zhou Andong continued, "Besides, you have more important things to do."

"What thing?" Qian Zhen came back to his senses.

Zhou Andong said, "In order to control the channels, Gao Qingkui and Zhang Zui will definitely try their best to win over wholesalers and sell all the liquor regardless of anything, which might even damage the interests of the winery and the employees."

Qian Zhen said sternly, "They wouldn't dare!"

Zhou Andong smiled slightly. What wouldn't they dare to do? In his previous life, in order to save the winery, the city invested 12 million in succession, but in the end, this money didn't even make a splash. In 1997, it was sold by Zhang Zui to a woman named Zheng Qianhua for 30,000. You know, not counting the factory buildings and equipment, the land alone was worth more than 20 million.

Later, this woman, Zheng Qianhua, established Jiangzhou Liquor Industry Co., Ltd., hired Gao Qingkui as general manager, and Zhang Zui as deputy general manager and factory director. From the beginning, Zhou Andong felt that this matter wasn't simple, but he wasn't the only one laid off, and at that time he was preparing to build a chicken coop to do a big job, so he didn't meddle in other people's business.

It wasn't until more than ten years later, when Jiangzhou Liquor Industry was split and reorganized and prepared to go public, that Zhou Andong specifically checked online and found that the largest shareholders were actually Gao Qingkui and Zhang Zui, and the other shareholders were all relatives of these two old things. And Zheng Qianhua's name didn't appear on the shareholder list.

Only then did Zhou Andong understand that the winery had been hollowed out by those two old things and then sold to themselves for 30,000. As for that woman Zheng Qianhua, she was just a puppet they pushed out to stand in front of them.

"Regardless of whether they dare or not, you must guard the warehouse gate well. Without Gu Shuji's consent, not a single bottle of liquor can be sold, because this relates to the positioning of Jiangzhou Jiangzhou Yugong Liquor. I'm not scaring you, follow-up marketing is very important. One wrong step, and the whole game will be lost."

"All the efforts we made before will go down the drain. Of course, with that report, Jiangzhou Jiangzhou Yugong will definitely sell well for a period of time, but I guarantee that if follow-up marketing can't keep up, it will cool down in less than a year."

Qian Zhen's expression became solemn. He had heard the word "marketing" before, but didn't understand it. During this period of time, he had been silently paying attention to the reform, and then he saw Zhou Andong, like a magical magician, giving ordinary sorghum a noble bloodline, and then through a series of planning and layout, making the renamed sorghum with a noble bloodline shock the world in one sound.

Therefore, he trusted Zhou Andong's words 100%. Even if he had been suppressed by Gao Qingkui and Zhang Zui in the logistics department for the past few years and had lost much of his say, this related to the future development of the winery, so even if he risked his old life, he couldn't let anyone destroy it.

"Starting tonight, I will sleep in the warehouse."

Zhou Andong hurriedly shook his head, "Don't. The warehouse is too cold. If you freeze and get sick, I can't take the responsibility. You find a few trustworthy people, and I'll find a few trustworthy people. Let them work in three shifts, and you just need to supervise them well."

"Okay, let's do it that way." Qian Zhen turned and left, "I'll go arrange people right now."

Zhou Andong said to Gu Bing, "I'll go to the second workshop to see if Yao Jun is there."

In the end, only Gu Bing was left, standing alone at the gate, blowing in the cold wind. Like a resentful woman who had been abandoned, he looked at Zhou Andong's retreating back and felt sad.

In the second workshop, Yao Jun was squatting at the door chatting with a few buddies. Seeing Zhou Andong coming, they all stood up to greet him.

"Dongzi!"

"Brother Dong!"

"..."

Zhou Andong asked, "Were you at the scene when Gu Shuji spoke just now?"

"Yes!" Wu Cheng leaned over to Zhou Andong with a grin, "Brother Dong, Brother Jun said just now that you are going to do some business after the New Year. Can you take me with you?"

"Sure!" Zhou Andong said, "However, there is a matter now. If you can handle it well, Brother will take you to play."

"No problem!" Wu Cheng patted his chest excitedly, "You say it, I guarantee to handle it properly." ===== CHAPTER 51 =====
