Ants exploded, I opened a power plant to supply power to the world

Chapter 222 Tiesheng can play football, and Amei can go to work
"Let's not talk about anything else. Before the Zhetong power comes, don't our official buildings have to turn on the lights at night? Will you supply us with power when the Zhetong power comes?"

"Will you provide the lights on the Qiansimen Bridge after the Zhetong power supply is gone?"

"There are tens of millions of people in the mountain city. Can you guarantee their electricity supply?"

These consecutive rhetorical questions left the operators of the major hydropower plants present speechless for a moment.

Seeing this, the leader who said this struck while the iron was hot.

"Tell me, you couldn't guarantee these things before Zhetong Electric Power came, so how can we trust you to guarantee them after Zhetong Electric Power leaves?"

"Besides, in our private power environment, you guys also rely on your own abilities. We are also users, right? We can choose which power is better. It is reasonable to choose Zhetong Power, so don't tell me those nonsense. I can only say that it is the market's choice."

After saying this, the man stood up and left. He didn't intend to continue chatting with the representatives of the operators. Anyway, this was the official statement.

Being humiliated here, the remaining few people also looked unhappy, but they really had no other options.

……

In the mountain city, the An'nan plant of Zhetong Electric Power has been extremely busy recently, and most of the staff have to work overtime.

If this happened somewhere else or in another company's factory, I guess the employees would definitely complain and slack off as much as possible, and work efficiency would definitely not improve.

But it is different in Zhetong Electric Power. The new local Shancheng employees may not be very clear about it, but this time many people in Shancheng were recruited from Binhai and Quanhe.

The induction training here in Shancheng is provided by the "teaching group" from there, and naturally the "old and new" people learn about some of the mechanisms and characteristics within Zhetong Power.

The "head" of the teaching corps at that time was Wang Shuqing, also known as their Engineer Wang.

When Mr. Wang was leading them, he made it clear that in other places, employees would complain and feel helpless about overtime work, but in Zhetong Electric Power, overtime work was considered an "alternative benefit" and everyone was rushing to do it because under normal circumstances there were not many opportunities to work overtime.

After hearing this, the local employees in Shancheng were all confused and some even sneered.

But then Engineer Wang showed them the pay slips of several ordinary employees of their old factory, namely the Shima Town Power Plant of Zhetong Electric Power Group.

There is a huge gap among them. Some people want 5,000 yuan, but some people go straight for 10,000 yuan.

Such a big gap is caused by overtime. The person whose salary was close to 10,000 went to Binhai to provide assistance during that time. Zhetong Electric Power paid overtime wages at three times the highest salary, and not a penny less!
As a result, the people in Shancheng truly felt the gap between them as Zhetong employees and the outside world.

At Zhetong Electric Power, as long as you work overtime, you can get overtime pay, not to mention triple the amount! Isn't this a good thing for ordinary people?
You can get three times the reward for the same amount of time, so naturally everyone is happy when working overtime.

Of course, there will be no behavior of deliberately "slacking off" in order to extend the overtime hours. Zhetong Electric Power is very strict on this point. The overtime pay that you are supposed to handle will not be reduced by a single cent, but it is impossible to think of taking advantage of the group.

The HR department will verify and review, and then ask for a reasonable explanation for any unreasonable phenomenon. Once you can't explain why a job that can be done in an hour took you several hours to complete, you will be fired soon.

In human resources, there is a department that is specifically responsible for review and verification, which is also considered a powerful department within the group.

Clear rewards and punishments are the characteristics of Zhetong Electric Power.

With the guarantee of these mechanisms, employees will be motivated, but there will be no negative situations caused by it.

……

The temperature continues to be hot, the employees are working hard, and the number of users is growing rapidly.

Of course, this also brought some problems, namely, the customer service center began to work overtime on a large scale.

After all, with the addition of new staff, customer service will have more situations to deal with.

Xiao Jingzhu is a member of the Customer Service Center of Zhetong Electric Power Group and has been very busy recently.

Normally I only need to work eight hours a day, but recently I have been working overtime.

This was actually a good thing. Xiao Jingzhu calculated that based on the intensity of overtime work this month, he could even earn more than 10,000 yuan.

Having money naturally gives you motivation, but after working overtime for more than a week, you're still somewhat exhausted.

"Hello, can you confirm that your address is No. 261, Railway Community, Wangcheng Road, Jingning District, Binhai?"

"Okay, we have sent your repair information to the dispatch center. They will arrange maintenance personnel to provide door-to-door service for you soon. Please keep your phone open. I wish you a happy life."

After saying these words, Xiao Jingzhu heard the customer's "OK" and then hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Jingzhu breathed a sigh of relief. His shift today was scheduled to end at 7pm, and tomorrow was his day off, so he could finally get off work.

After walking out of the customer service center building, Xiao Jingzhu also got on the factory employee commuter bus.

Because many customer service staff are from all over Quanhe, there is usually a trip arranged every few days. Especially if there is no employee bus at this time, employees who want to go home will have to wait until daytime.

After traveling by bus, Xiao Jingzhu returned to Lincheng's home at around eight o'clock in the evening.

This time I went home not only to take two rare days off, but also to persuade my sister about something.

The group’s recruitment notice was just sent out today. After seeing it, I immediately forwarded it to my sister, but she did not respond.

I'm about to go home, so I'll have to give him some good advice when I see him.

……

As soon as she arrived home, Xiao Jingzhu's parents had already prepared meals. Knowing that she was coming home today, they specially left enough of her favorite meals for her.

Although the food in the canteen of Zhetong Electric Power’s factory is also very good, it can’t compare to the taste of home after all.

And this flavor can only be made by my mother.

After finishing the meal, Xiao Jingzhu touched his mouth and then went to his sister's bedroom.

In the bedroom, Xiao Wenzhu smiled when she saw her sister come in. The two sisters had a very good relationship. She heard the noise outside from inside the room, but because of her inconvenient legs and feet, she did not go out and just waited here for her sister to come in.

……

The girls couldn't stop chatting. Even Xiao Jingzhu didn't choose to go back to her bedroom tonight. The two sisters rested together.

My sister's fate is neither good nor bad. The good thing is that she was born in this family. Her conditions are not as good as others but not bad either. Moreover, her family is warm and her parents are harmonious.

The bad thing is that my sister had an accident when she was in college, and now she can't walk at all without a wheelchair.

It is also because of this reason that my sister's eyes are often filled with sadness. The family has tried every possible way but in the end they have to accept this fact.

From then on, Xiao Wenzhu "sealed herself off". After completing her university courses with great difficulty and getting her diploma, she returned home and was rarely seen leaving the house.

Not everyone is Hemingway, so we cannot expect everyone to be strong. Also, not everyone is made of iron and cannot achieve his sudden clarity and insight.

My sister was just at home, and Xiao Jingzhu had been thinking about helping her, but she didn't know where to start.

After all, apart from her family, Xiao Wenzhu is basically isolated from the world. In Xiao Jingzhu's view, she has to try to "stand up" again to contact and feel the world.

……

"Sister, did you see the notice I sent you during the day?" "Yes, I saw it."

"What do you think? Do you want to try to submit your resume and come to our Zhetong Electric Power to become a Zhetong member?"

After asking this question, Xiao Wenzhu remained silent for a long time, but Xiao Jingzhu was not in a hurry and just started telling the story.

"Sister, let me tell you a story..."

Once upon a time there was a writer named Xiaohua, and he had a writer friend named Tiesheng.

Later, Tiesheng could only walk in a wheelchair due to illness. He was often depressed and lamented the cruelty of fate.

But Tiesheng's mother never gave up on him, and his friend Xiaohua came and told Tiesheng, "Tiesheng, let's go play football. You be the goalkeeper. This way no one will dare to kick the ball into the goal you are guarding."

That period of time was the happiest time in Tiesheng's memory since he fell ill.

When Xiao Wenzhu said this, his eyes sparkled and no one knew what he was thinking.

Xiao Jingzhu continued speaking.

"Sister, do you know what Tiesheng said later?"

"He said his friends didn't see him as a disabled person, and of course, they sometimes didn't see themselves as people either."

Hearing this, Xiao Wenzhu, who was lying in bed, finally couldn't help laughing out loud along with her sister.

……

"Sister, we are all ordinary people. We can't do what they do, but maybe we can learn to be like them. Or we can live a better life? How about that?"

"Let me tell you, our Zhetong Electric Power is great, and the employees get along very well with each other. Maybe it's because of the high welfare benefits, everyone is very friendly, and the work has become less unpleasant..."

In the end, Xiao Jingzhu couldn't remember what he said. Anyway, it seemed like he was just speaking well of the group, like a paid "telecom".

Talk about the friendly relationships among employees in the group, the kind superiors, the food in the cafeteria, the dormitory environment, etc.

At the end of the story, Xiao Jingzhu's voice gradually became smaller and finally disappeared, and the two sisters fell asleep together.

……

The next morning, their parents were preparing to have breakfast outside. After breakfast, Xiao's father went to work, leaving Xiao Jingzhu, Xiao Wenzhu and their mother at home.

Her mother used to work, but later she quit her job because of Xiao Wenzhu and has been taking care of her daily life at home.

Fortunately, my father's income is high and stable enough, which gives my mother the confidence to quit her job.

At this moment, Father Xiao was sipping soy milk with fried dough sticks, while Mother Xiao was going to the kitchen to put the other breakfasts she had bought into the incubator so that the two children could have something hot to eat when they woke up.

"Old Xiao, I heard Jingzhu has been working overtime these past two days. When you leave today, don't yell loudly, 'Dad is going to work'. Let them sleep a little longer."

After hearing this, Xiao's father also nodded.

He didn't have this habit originally, but he developed it after Xiao Wenzhu had an accident.

He always felt that shouting "I'm back and I went to work" after going out and coming home would make his daughter feel the presence of family more.

Maybe it's useless and a bit noisy, but he is willing to shout it out at the top of his voice with a little embarrassment if it can help his daughter's mentality even a little bit.

……

However, just after giving these instructions, Xiao's mother saw Xiao Wenzhu opening the door with difficulty and caution. She was sitting in a wheelchair.

Seeing this, Xiao's mother quickly put down what she was holding and went to help.

"Wenzhu, why did you get up so early today? Why don't you sleep a little longer?"

"Mom, please keep your voice down. My sister is still resting."

After hearing this, Xiao's mother quietly closed the door and then pushed Xiao Wenzhu to the dining table.

While eating breakfast, Xiao Wenzhu spoke.

"Mom, can you please get me my college diploma? I need to take a photo for my electrical resume."

Because they were afraid that they would lose things if they had nothing to clean up, their mother kept things like their graduation certificates from childhood to adulthood.

After hearing this, Xiao's father and mother were both stunned.

When Jingzhu came back yesterday, she told them that Zhetong Electric Power was recruiting customer service staff. Now that Xiao Wenzhu said this, they naturally knew what it meant.

……

A tear unconsciously slid down from the corner of her temple. Xiao Wenzhu's mother smiled, turned her head away and wiped away the tear.

"Okay, Mom will get it for you right away."

At this moment, Xiao Wenzhu's father looked at the fried dough stick in his hand and felt as if something had accidentally choked his throat while he was eating. Then several years passed in a flash, and now the fried dough stick that was stuck in his throat was finally swallowed.

I felt so happy that I raised my head and drank the soy milk in the bowl in one gulp.

Father Xiao stood up and reached out to pat Xiao Wenzhu on the head.

"Wenzhu tells you a secret. If you can get into Zhetong Electric Power, you will definitely do better than your sister. You have been better at speaking than your sister since you were a child."

"Dad is going to work. If you're lucky, you'll have to say this to him next time."

After saying that, Father Xiao picked up his briefcase, stood up, opened the door and left.

"Bang~"

As the door of the house closed, Xiao's father outside the door also had slightly red eyes, but then he smiled.

There was no elevator, and Xiao's father felt more relaxed every time he went down one of the four floors.

"This child finally came out."

After saying that, Xiao's father came downstairs and even whistled.

……

I have indeed worked a lot of overtime during this period. I earn money but I am also tired. I usually maintain a normal schedule on holidays, but today when I woke up and looked at the time, it was already half past ten.

When he looked again, his sister had disappeared. After yawning, Xiao Jingzhu got up and went outside.
