"By the way, please don't tell anyone about the content of today's meeting. If it gets out, it will easily cause misunderstandings among employees, which will be bad for everyone."
"I understand, I understand, we will comfort you down there..."
"Yes, we know what to do, it's a piece of cake..."
"Director, don't worry..."
Finally, with a reminder from Director Yang, the meeting dispersed.
A war without gunpowder ended successfully with the victory of Director Yang and Sister Wei.
As the winner, Sister Wei never looked happy.
Even after everyone dispersed, she actually stayed in her seat and seemed a little dazed.
Such an attitude is very thought-provoking. Director Yang saw something was wrong and did not leave.
After everyone else left, he came over and asked quietly.
"Sister, what's wrong with you? The factory affairs meeting is over and the service company matter has been resolved. Isn't this a good thing? Aren't you happy?"
"Good thing? Are you happy? What kind of factory affairs meeting is this! Bullshit!"
Sister Wei was indeed unhappy and uncharacteristically cursed.
Director Yang was afraid that others would hear him, so he quickly walked over and closed the door of the conference room.
When he came back, he deliberately used jokes to reduce Sister Wei's anger.
"Sister, I'm really angry. Fortunately, our factory has a lot of cold drinks. Do you want to drink soda? Or eat ice cream? I'll have someone bring it to you right away. Don't worry..."
It's a pity it's useless. Sister Wei raised her head and gave him a dissatisfied look.
"Are you kidding me? You are so happy. Today is a spoils-sharing meeting! What is being divided is the service company's people's wealth and people's wealth, and what is divided is Shui Qing's legal income! Our cadres have become like this, you see Aren't you anxious? They are just looking for profit. They are just swallowing what they say. They are so shameless! The table was overturned!"
Director Yang saw Sister Wei's face turned pale with anger, and knew that she was really angry, so he had to persuade her.
"Sister, why are you doing this? Aren't you having trouble with yourself? In fact, this happens almost everywhere. You can't take certain things too seriously..."
Unexpectedly, his pretended to be relaxed tone made Sister Wei angry at him.
"You...are you still saying this as a factory director? How can you turn a blind eye and have such a cold attitude?"
"Let me tell you, I didn't care about many things in the past because I thought it was not easy for everyone. As long as it doesn't touch on issues of principle, stability and unity are the most important. But today it went too far, and it has touched my bottom line. Even Shui Qing, who is so conscientious and dedicated to the public, can be slandered by them. Isn't this a case of indifference? "
"Think about it, what will the factory look like in the long run? Who will be willing to serve in a sincere way in the future? You keep talking about reform, is that just what you shout about? Just these people, just these few Block material, what do you think you can change it to?"
"Yes, the service company was saved this time. But that was not a real victory. It was obtained through disguised bribery and compromise. What is the difference between the bad idea you and Hong Yanwu came up with together and raising moths? This is what the Song Dynasty gave to the Liao Dynasty. , golden coins, is it still worth celebrating? ”
"From now on, you will feel at ease when you waste the money earned by Shuiqing with those people? If that's the case, what's the difference between you and them..."
Director Yang's expression changed. Sister Wei's unscrupulous words hurt him a bit.
In fact, he hates these people more than Sister Wei.
But precisely because he is the head of a factory and must take the overall situation into consideration, he cannot show his emotions and scold him like Sister Wei.
"Sister, in my mind, this is the second time you have scolded me so angrily."
Director Yang sighed, feeling that he had to explain patiently and heart-to-heart.
Not only to prove my innocence, but also to forgive this eldest sister, and to gain her follow-up support so that I can do a good job in the future.
"I don't know if you still remember, but I served in the army, was injured, and even performed a third-class meritorious service. When I came back to our factory after my recovery, it was you who took me to familiarize myself with the environment and led me to my job. It was you who inspired me to forget the disappointment of leaving the army. My heart was full of enthusiasm for a big fight and my love for our factory."
"But soon the 'movement' came, production came to a standstill, I was dismissed from my post, and I had to do self-examination every day. The label of 'white specialist' was slapped on my head, which made me breathless. . The most important thing is that later, many of the leaders and comrades whom I respected gradually showed their ugly faces that I could not imagine, and even fabricated things that had never happened before to frame me."
"I suddenly felt that I was the only one who was a big fool. It is true that lovers are inherently evil. Everywhere is unreasonable and unfair. If I had known this, why would I have to work so hard to do this stupid thing? I'm soft , I felt that life was too difficult. I felt exhausted and I didn’t want to work hard anymore. The idea of achieving a career became a joke to me. I thought I had seen through the society and became incompetent. Don’t laugh, don’t cry, don’t scold, just eat and wait to die.”
"But who would have thought that you took the initiative to find me. While caring and encouraging me, you also scolded me for the first time. You scolded me for not living up to expectations and being a coward. For giving up halfway, I'm sorry for the country, my employees, and even more sorry for myself. , I’m sorry for my own personality, I’m sorry for my own conscience, and I’m sorry for my own responsibilities. This is letting myself go and taking the initiative to escape.”
"You used lotus roots as a metaphor for our situation at that time, saying that lotus root pickers can only step on the delicious young lotus roots in the freezing cold water and are not afraid of the mud and filth. You also encouraged me to be like lotus roots, not afraid of filth. Don't give up hope. Even in the worst environment, you must keep your heart clean and wait for the water to come out. Even if you really can't change the smelly environment, at least you can't join in the bad environment and leave something of your own to the world. Aroma."
"To be honest, I don't believe what you say, at least it won't be able to turn around at once. But later I discovered that your situation is actually very difficult, you also have a lot of complaints, and you are qualified to make the same comments as others. Complain. But you have never complained, not because you dare not, not because you can't, but because you are unwilling. You are worthy of being a qualified party member. You are using yourself to heat, shine, and warm people like me. Disheartened people."
"I have been a soldier, so I know the meaning of swallowing a coat with a broken arm. It was under the inspiration and touch of the unity of your words and deeds that I took one look, two looks, and three looks... My heart slowly regained It was hot. Then it was just as you said, the cold and darkness were over, and I persisted until the day came."
"Sister, for this, I will always be grateful to you and admire you. I can even tell you that even now, my original intention has not changed. I am still the person who is not afraid of hardship and has the ability to do things when you first met me. The ambitious little Yangzi..."
Faced with such a confession and such friendship, Sister Wei could not remain indifferent.
There was a softness in her raised eyes, but there were still many doubts.
I couldn't help but ask, "Then...how do you still..."
Director Yang did not answer this key question directly.
But the conversation changed and he asked Sister Wei another question.
"Sister, I have a question, have you ever thought about it? In terms of qualifications, you left school at the age of sixteen to join the revolution. You were among the first people to take over the factory after the founding of the People's Republic of China, and you were responsible for it in 1957. When doing propaganda work, Secretary Guo is just an ordinary officer under you."
"In terms of connections, many leaders in the bureau are your old comrades. In terms of political level and personal ethics, you are the well-deserved number one person in our entire factory. Logically speaking, you should be the 'Polar Bear' now The top leader is the right one, but why did Secretary Guo get the job, and you became a trade union cadre from deputy secretary?”
"Yes, I know you are not keen on power. Secretary Guo talked to you once at that time, and his statement moved you. You carried forward your style and took the initiative to be humble. But have you ever thought about it? Why do you go up and down? Are you easily deceived by Secretary Guo? Why are all the cadres you brought out so easy to accept? Even the leaders of the bureau are happy to see this happen without even a word to persuade you to change your mind? , report the overall situation and call on you to learn from it?”
The last few words stunned Sister Wei, who had originally wanted to say something.
She really hadn't thought about this question, and it was really difficult to answer it.
