Rebirth in 1960, My Industrial Age

Chapter 263: Please invite the deputy leader (subscribe)
"Hello, Vice Leader Zhou!"

"Good morning, Vice Leader Zhou."

In the new week, after Zhou Fengnian arrived at the Fourth Ministry of Machine Building, people passing by greeted him one after another.

The changes in leading cadres have been notified, and almost everyone in the Fourth Ministry of Machine Building knows that they have a new deputy leader.

The notice board is near the gate and can be seen by people coming in and out of get off work.

After entering the ministry building, a person who had been waiting there for a long time came forward to greet Zhou Fengnian when he saw him and said, "Leader, let me take you to the office. Everything there has been sorted out according to your requirements. The sealed documents have not been put away yet and are waiting for your inspection."

The person who spoke was Zhou Fengnian's new assistant Wang Mingjie. He had just graduated and was assigned to the Fourth Ministry of Machine Building when he happened to see Zhou Fengnian get promoted.

So I was assigned to be his assistant.

Wang Mingjie is skilled in writing, and some documents can be assigned to him for writing. He is also meticulous in his work, and was specially selected by Gu Wenjie for Zhou Fengnian.

Moreover, before Zhou Fengnian came to the ministry, he wrote materials for all the leaders.

"Okay, please lead the way."

After Zhou Fengnian finished speaking, he followed Wang Mingjie upstairs.

Soon they arrived at his office. After pushing the door open, Zhou Fengnian saw an office that was even bigger than the one he had been in before.

But what satisfied him most were the three rows of bookshelves behind the office.

Wang Mingjie said, "Leader, these are all sealed documents. I just put them here and didn't move them. There is a locked cabinet under the bookcase. If you need to sort them out, leader."

"Okay, I understand. I'll sort these out myself. Thank you for your hard work."

Zhou Fengnian asked, "Is there anything going on in the department today?"

Wang Mingjie took out a notebook, glanced at it and said, "There is no cadre meeting today, but last time you said that we would prepare for the new factory today. What time will it be ready?"

Zhou Fengnian thought for a moment and said, "Ten o'clock, please. Prepare the information for me by then."

"I see. I'll bring it to you at ten o'clock."

After Wang Mingjie finished speaking, he reported some other things, then said goodbye and left to prepare.

The office was well tidy. Zhou Fengnian simply put away the sealed drawings and materials, and then sat in the office to rest.

The Chinese New Year is not long away, but he still has a lot of things to do before the New Year.

The preparations for the two factories, as well as the paging center and reconnaissance drones, must be manufactured as soon as possible.

Select cadres and personnel and formulate development plans.

The pager factory is profitable, but the best place is in Guangdong. But now the small fishing village is still a small fishing village, so it can only be established in the old city first.

There is one in Beijing and one in Shanghai. In a few years, one will be built in Guangdong, and then it will spread to Hong Kong.

As for the drone reconnaissance factory, it is basically equivalent to a military industrial unit.

Once Zhou Fengnian brings out the finished product, it is estimated that the green light will be given soon.

While we were working on the plan to build the factory, someone suddenly knocked on the door.

Zhou Fengnian shouted "Come in" without even raising his head, and then the door was pushed open, and he heard Gu Wenjie's voice.

"Fengnian, you started working so soon. I was just waiting for you."

Gu Wenjie smiled and asked, "How is it? What else does this office need? Do you need a computer?"

"No need for computers. I rarely use them in my current job. But this office is definitely missing something."

Zhou Fengnian said very seriously. The expression on his face made Gu Wenjie stunned. After looking around, he asked, "What's missing? I'll ask them to make it up for you."

"Look, this drawer is so empty, is there some tea missing?"

Gu Wenjie's face darkened after hearing this, and then he said calmly: "We need to set up the wireless electronics and communications department before the New Year. I saw Wang Mingjie asked for a list of personnel in the department. Do you want me to give you a reference?"

“My drawer.”

"Forget it, it's the department you're in charge of, just handle it yourself."

"Hey, Lao Gu, listen to me"

"Really? Why are there so many things going on today?"

Gu Wenjie shook his head and answered the question irrelevantly, then turned around and left without any hesitation.

Zhou Fengnian smiled and continued to work.

Before ten o'clock, he was either formulating a factory construction plan or calling the Materials Research Institute to inquire about the progress.

He and the machine tool factory have already completed everything, except for the stealth alloy material, so they can start flight testing.

At ten o'clock, Wang Mingjie knocked on the door and came in, handed over a document and said, "Leader, I have compiled the personnel files for you."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work. Go ahead and do your work. I'll call you when I've made my decision. By the way, can you help me get my meal coupon?"

Wang Mingjie said, "I have received it. The new lunch box is also with me. Leader, if you are busy at noon, I can bring the lunch back for you?"

Zhou Fengnian smiled in his heart when he heard this. This new assistant is really good at handling things. "Then I'll leave it to you first."

"Okay, boss. I'll get busy now."

After Wang Mingjie finished speaking, he left, and Zhou Fengnian began to select personnel for the new factory.

Just looking at the files, all of them were outstanding. Without talking to them, Zhou Fengnian couldn't tell anything. He could only pick out a few with experience and call them over to talk in person.

After the notice was given, Zhou Fengnian continued to be busy.

During this period, he also received a call from President Pang of Tsinghua University.

What happened on Sunday has been dealt with. The supply and marketing cooperative has fired the person who caused the trouble, and the deputy director involved has also been demoted.

What they did was indeed bold. They gathered people together to beat up the college students out of resentment. This one incident alone was enough to bring disaster to the supply and marketing cooperative.

The supply and marketing cooperative is indeed awesome, but it depends on who you compare it with. It involves a top five domestic university and a deputy head of a department.

After hearing the call from the police station, the director of the Qianmen Supply and Marketing Cooperative wanted to rush to the deputy director's office and beat him up because his brother-in-law had been causing trouble for the supply and marketing cooperative.

In the end, they went to the student’s home to pay compensation and arranged a temporary job for the wife of the beaten student, thus putting the matter behind us.

The school also helped Zhou Xianyang and others pay compensation. After all, they were protecting their classmates, and although violence was wrong, their starting point was good.

After talking about this and other things for a while, Dean Pang hung up the phone.

Now Zhou Fengnian still teaches two classes every week. Some things can be discussed in person. The department knows about it and has recorded it, so it is not counted as Zhou Fengnian's absence.

Leaders at their level don't need to go to get off work or leave work on time, they just need to get their work done.

The higher-ups look at the results, not the process. If the Fourth Ministry of Machine Building doesn't even have this little autonomy, it will be difficult for it to develop.

After lunch, I didn't rest for long and started meeting some candidates for cadres of the new factory in the afternoon.

After talking with twenty or thirty people in a row, Zhou Fengnian had a general idea in his mind.

After picking out some people's files, Zhou Fengnian selected the candidates. After the next departmental meeting for discussion and approval, the new factory can be prepared.

Building a new factory requires the approval of all the main leaders, after all, the funds involved are not small.

There are also personnel mobilization, material coordination and so on.

One or two months of preparation is fast.

------

The Fourth Ministry of Machine Building’s meetings were usually held on Wednesdays. After Zhou Fengnian finished speaking, he had no objections to matters that had already been decided.

There were only some disputes over personnel arrangements, but as long as the new factory could be built as soon as possible and did not cause him any trouble, Zhou Fengnian was willing to compromise.

What he wants is development. As long as one focuses on development and does not engage in corruption or dirty deeds, anyone can take the position of factory leader.

So it's a green light all the way for him, and if it's not suitable, he will replace the person.

".Next is the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft factory. Some people may not understand this factory, but it doesn't matter. Comrade Wenjie and I plan to invite the deputy leader to visit, and then the deputy leader will definitely allow it to be built."

Zhou Fengnian said that originally the ministry did not have such a plan and the higher-ups had not agreed to it, so he acted first and reported to the higher-ups later.

But he had already made the finished product yesterday and tested it, and the results were quite good.

Today we have invited the deputy leader to come and see the results. After seeing it, he will definitely realize the importance of unmanned reconnaissance aircraft.

Even the army has begun to discuss the application of electronic information technology in warfare. Now that Zhou Fengnian has created a powerful weapon of war, how could the deputy leader object?

Luo Yifeng smiled and said, "Comrade Fengnian, you have reported everything, so we can only wait for the results. This matter is over, let's move on to the next one."

Deputy leader Sun Gongran also had a displeased look on his face. After he knew that the deputy leader was coming, he had nothing to say.

But he suddenly found that he seemed to be isolated by the three of them?
There is one principal and three deputies, and they are as close as a pair of pants. What should he do?
Just now, he had secured two of the dozens of deputy director-level posts in the two factories.
Sun Gongran had a fire in his heart that he couldn't ignite even though he wanted to. He now missed the past few years very much, when almost the entire Fourth Ministry of Machine Building was composed of his people.

Now, the people he appoints are either transferred or demoted.

The subsequent meetings finalized some more matters, which were basically decided by the three main leaders: Zhou Fengnian, Gu Wenjie and Luo Yifeng.

In the past, Sun Gongran could still compete with Gu Wenjie and Luo Yifeng, but now with the addition of Zhou Fengnian, he has no say at all.

Even voting has nothing to do with it.

As soon as the workday ended, Zhou Fengnian packed up and went home.

He calculated the time before the New Year and found that he had plenty of time for preparations for the new factory and other matters, so he did not need to work overtime.

I have two daughters at home. Instead of working meaningless overtime at the department, I would rather go back and spend time with my daughters.

But just after returning home, Zhou Fengnian saw Zhou Yan with a cold face. She blocked Zhou Fengnian and asked unhappily: "Fengnian, you are hiding this from me? If someone hadn't come to my door, I wouldn't have known that Xian Yang was locked up in the police station."

"Hey, didn't he go out that day? And it was our son who beat the guy up, but he wasn't hurt at all."

Zhou Fengnian pretended to have just remembered and said, "I would have forgotten it if you hadn't told me. Why should I care about this?"
