Chapter 875

~9 min read 1,626 words

On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, Monday, Li Ye left home for work half an hour earlier than usual.

Because today is the first day of work after the Spring Festival at Branch Factory No. 1, he has to stand at the factory gate and look at the mental state of the workers.

If most workers have the sequelae of holiday laziness, then Li Ye, as the factory director, must use carrots and sticks to refresh everyone.

Branch Factory No. 1 is a technical enterprise, and a lazy working state cannot produce first-class products. It took a lot of effort to build the reputation of "Branch Factory No. 1" in more than a year, so he can't smash it carelessly!

However, when Li Ye drove to Branch Factory No. 1, he saw many workers already entering the factory in a lively manner.

Li Ye looked at his watch. It was still more than twenty minutes before work! Did these workers take the initiative to go to work early?

Li Ye stopped the car, and the workers who went to work started to greet him.

"Director Li, Happy New Year!"

"Eh, Happy New Year, Happy New Year. You guys caught an early start today!"

"Hi, the first day of the New Year, you have to be diligent! Hehehehe~"

"Director, don't worry, we can distinguish between importance and urgency. You were considerate of us and let us rest for five days in a row. We will never develop lazy diseases..."

"."

According to the statutory holiday regulations, the Spring Festival in 1988 was only three days off, but the fourth day was Saturday.

So before the New Year, Li Ye discussed with Lu Zhizhang and issued an ambiguous holiday notice—on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, each section should prepare for the start of work according to their own situation, and the factory did not make requirements for specific arrangements.

The machines stopped for three or four days in total, what else needs to be prepared?

So most sections and workshops only sent Party members and cadres to check around on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, and the rest of the people enjoyed a rare "small long holiday."

Looking at the state of the workers now, the effect is not bad.

However, Li Ye's decision was not supported by everyone. After all, some people like to take chicken feathers as arrows and hold people with rules.

"Deputy Factory Director Li, Happy New Year!"

Li Ye had just greeted a few workers when he heard the voice of Sister Lai from the labor union.

Lai Jiayi walked to Li Ye's side with a smile, first wished each other a Happy New Year, and then suddenly whispered to Li Ye: "Deputy Factory Director Li, I heard news yesterday that the leaders of the General Factory are very dissatisfied with our collective absenteeism and are going to send someone to ask questions and investigate. You must be mentally prepared..."

Li Ye didn't understand: "Our Branch Factory No. 1 is independently accounted for. What does it have to do with them how the workers produce?"

"How can it have nothing to do with them?"

Lai Jiayi was also surprised: "The national regulation is to go to work on the fourth day, but our factory only had a few people on the fourth day. Let's not talk about the bad influence, who will bear the loss of the country on the working days stipulated by the country?"

Fart bad influence, fart national loss.

Li Ye said unhappily: "Sister Lai, did you go to work on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year?"

"."

Lai Jiayi was stunned, and she was very angry in her heart.

She was kind enough to "tip off" Li Ye in advance. This is how much help in the unit, but Li Ye actually bit the hand that fed him and didn't know good from bad.

Lai Jiayi sneered and said: "Deputy Factory Director Li, I asked for leave in advance. Why don't you go and see my leave note?"

"Sister Lai, you didn't understand what I meant,"

Li Ye waved his hand and said: "I came to be on duty on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, and I specifically went to the General Factory side to take a look. As a result, I found that few of the workers who went to work arrived on time,"

"And they were all dragging their feet and lazy, all surrounding together to smoke and brag. The machines didn't even move, and basically no one was there by noon. You say, what benefit does this kind of work have?"

Li Ye pointed to the workers of Branch Factory No. 1 around him again: "You look at our workers again, they are on duty twenty minutes early. Looking at this energy, are you still embarrassed to find their faults?"

"."

Lai Jiayi was stunned and wanted to argue with Li Ye, but the words reached her lips and she couldn't say them, and finally she could only be speechless.

Could she not know what kind of virtue the workers of the General Factory were? Starting work on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, it would be good if they could resume normal production within a week.

The 130 produced was either running off-track or eating tires. Even if it was good, there were many people stealing things in the middle of the night.

And the workers of Branch Factory No. 1 were not only incomparable to the workers of the General Factory in terms of energy, but also much more rigorous in their work attitude.

Now they are all Beijing 130, but those with the Branch Factory No. 1 nameplate are thousands of yuan more expensive than the General Factory. This is reputation and evidence!

Lai Jiayi swallowed her saliva and said sheepishly: "The piece-rate wage of our factory is indeed different from the General Factory, but rules are rules..."

Even if she saw that the workers were full of energy, Lai Jiayi didn't think it was because the workers of Branch Factory No. 1 had high consciousness. She only thought these silly people were selling their lives for a few pieces of broken silver.

But in this world, who is not running around for a few pieces of broken silver?

Rules, rules, it's all rules all day long.

Li Ye heard Lai Jiayi talking about rules again and couldn't help but get annoyed.

In his previous life, he hadn't experienced the "power" of rules.

Some leaders in the unit like to formulate various rules.

You can't go to the toilet more than twice a day, and you can't exceed five minutes at a time.

You are not allowed to look at your mobile phone for a long time at work. If it is a work requirement, you must write a written report.

Late for one minute, half a day's wages deducted, and overtime of less than one hour does not count as overtime pay.

What kind of rules are you playing? Apart from being able to exert your official authority to the extreme and achieving the effect of "those who follow me prosper, those who oppose me perish," what positive effect does it have on production?

Everyone is not a fool. If you manage for the sake of management for a long time and don't care about the difficulties and needs of the workers, the workers will either be forced away by you or become masters of fishing in troubled waters.

Those in their forties or fifties with old and young are still better, but the young and reckless ones will stab you in the back if they are ruthless, and the boss will cry in the toilet!

Five minutes is definitely not enough to cry.

So Li Ye didn't argue with Lai Jiayi anymore and said directly: "The better the rules, the more they can be applied only if they have effects. The workers of Branch Factory No. 1 have complied with the rules, but what is the use?"

"How to mobilize the labor enthusiasm of workers is a profound knowledge in economics management. Ordinary people can't even touch the threshold at all,"

"If the General Factory really sends someone to ask questions, let's have a comparative test to see which side's workers have more energy and which side's product quality is better!"

"."

Lai Jiayi was stunned for a few seconds. Until Li Ye walked away, she felt that she was about to explode.

【Are you mocking me for not touching the threshold of management at all?】

Mobilizing the labor enthusiasm of workers used to be my specialty, you know? Our labor union is for this!

A banner, a certificate, an enamel cup, can make the workers excited.

But you Li Ye don't follow the rules, and you have bonuses and houses. How can my management means practiced for decades be used?

【You are young and don't know the height of the sky and the depth of the earth, and you don't know the truth that greed is insatiable. I see what you will give after giving bonuses and houses, SB!】

Lai Jiayi cursed angrily and cursed countless times in her heart that Li Ye was a life of rising to the extreme and falling to the extreme.

But she didn't know that with the gradual deepening of reform and opening up, the effectiveness of most banners and certificates, the experience means she once regarded as the golden rule, would inevitably become smaller and smaller, and only a few would have special and powerful effects.

An era has passed irreversibly, and a brand-new era is coming.
