Chapter 71 It’s hard to survive alone
"Captain Sun, please tell us the details of this comrade Liang Baoguo."

When the list of winners of the military-to-civilian product solicitation campaign was announced, Liu Biao immediately said to Sun Yulin, director of the chemical workshop, with a smile on his face.

"Well... I know Comrade Liang Baoguo quite well. When our factory was organizing an event, I encouraged him to participate..."

Sun Yulin rarely has the opportunity to speak among the factory leaders and members, because the chemical workshop has always been a "marginal workshop" and the only workshop that has suffered long-term losses over the years. The establishment of this workshop was only retained in order to complete the tasks assigned by the superiors. Therefore, it is not valued in the factory, and he, as the workshop director, rarely shows up.

"...Liang Baoguo is an old employee of our workshop. He usually performs well at work. Before coming to work in our factory, he was a carpenter in the village. He has very good skills and has made sofas for many people in our factory. He deserves the award for this event."

"Yeah." Liu Biao nodded.

Liu Biao was actually not satisfied with such a result, but he could do nothing about it.

Picking a general from a group of dwarfs, everything must have a result, and the promises made in the beginning must also be fulfilled.

"If the factory needs it, our workshop can organize the production of sofas, with Comrade Liang Baoguo as the technical director, to provide products with guaranteed quality and quantity every month." Sun Yulin has obviously thought of the relevant plans.

"Director Liu, I think we can transfer Comrade Liang Baoguo to the technical department. Civilian talents like him are rare, so we need to pay attention to him." Li Cunzhu also suggested at this time.

"That's right. Our factory's technical talents must also be diversified. Only in this way can we adapt to the new situation of enterprise development. Our chemical workshop will also keep pace with the times and fully cooperate with the transformation of our factory's products." It is a rare opportunity to be noticed, so Sun Yulin naturally would not miss the opportunity to express his opinion.

"Regarding... Comrade Liang Baoguo's transfer, we will talk about it later. This is the list of winners." Liu Biao had no expression on his face. He continued, "In short, our workshops still need to continue to work hard to develop newer and better civilian products."

"Okay, we will definitely work hard." Li Cunzhu said seriously.

"Let's adjourn the meeting and get back to work." Liu Biao waved his hand, signaling everyone that they could leave.

At once, everyone stood up and left the meeting room.

Looking at the empty conference room, Liu Biao looked a little worried. He took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it and started smoking.

For many years, as the factory director, Liu Biao implemented a "paternalistic" management model with a very strong style. No matter how big or small the matter was in the factory, he would personally take care of it and try to take all the responsibilities on himself. He could be said to have devoted himself to the work.

But it is also because of this that the other leaders of the factory have developed into "giant babies". They rarely have independent thinking ability at work, and are unwilling to take any responsibility. The only thing they can do is obey orders. But Liu Biao himself is just a human, not a god. He will make some mistakes. But even so, the people below never correct his orders. Even if they know it is wrong, they will resolutely carry it out, and even pretend to be confused. Over time, some problems and hidden dangers will arise in the development of the factory.

A single tree cannot support a building.

Having come to this point today, Liu Biao seems to feel a little "lonely". He can't find any capable helpers around him, nor does he lack people who can really give constructive suggestions. Everything depends on himself. As it happens, he is a person with a strong sense of responsibility. The survival and fate of tens of thousands of people in the factory is like a heavy burden on him, which sometimes makes him feel breathless.

Liu Biao didn't put out the cigarette until it burned out. The fatigue in his eyes was instantly covered up. He stood up and quickly left the meeting room...

……

At the evening staff night school, Xu Qiang, Wang Yongsheng and others arrived at the classroom early.

At this time of day, Wang Yongsheng and his group are either in a dance hall or drinking in a restaurant, but since they signed up for this night school cram school, miraculously they have never been late once.

It is sheer nonsense to say that Wang Yongsheng and his gang really want to go to college. After all, it is all about business.

Those who can attend the cram school are all elites from various workshops, including some technicians and intellectuals. Wang Yongsheng's years of business experience have made him realize that connections are very important in doing business. If any of these students are admitted to university, they may be a good backer. Even if no one is admitted, it is also good to use them to sell some products in various workshops.

As for the other few people, they came here purely because they heard that there were many female workers in the night school and wanted to find a good partner. However, from the current situation, it seems that no female student looks at them seriously.

"You guys came pretty early."

At this time, Liu Siying and Lin Yueying also came to the classroom. After seeing Wang Yongsheng, Liu Siying immediately greeted him with a smile.

Still dressed in a refreshing and beautiful outfit, Liu Siying's speech and behavior are very friendly, giving people a very easy-going feeling.

"Great Sage, what good things have you brought again?"

After a few days of getting along, the students in the class have become more familiar with each other. Facing Wang Yongsheng, Lin Yueying is obviously not as reserved as before.

"Come on, let me show you." Seeing more and more students entering the classroom, Wang Yongsheng's eyes lit up, and then he took out a few things wrapped in colorful pastry paper from his bag.

At once, everyone gathered around.

"What is this?" everyone asked curiously after seeing the paper bag on the table.

"It's not shampoo, is it? Xiao Wang, do you have any more? I used it last time and it was pretty good..."

"So beautiful!" Lin Yueying opened one of the wrapping papers and found a heart-shaped piece of pink soap inside.

"This is a new product from Shanghai Daily Chemical Factory No. 3, for internal use only..." Wang Yongsheng kept it a secret and said with a smile, "It is a formula introduced from Japan, and all the raw materials are imported. It has gone through 749 processes to produce this soap..."

Wang Yongsheng was talking with saliva flying, and it was obvious that he hoped that this soap could quickly open up the market in the factory. After all, this was a gamble that involved his entire fortune.

"So...you're going to give us soap this time?" Liu Siying said to Wang Yongsheng with a smile.

"Send it! Of course!" Wang Yongsheng replied straightforwardly, and then said: "Since the squad leader has spoken, we must send it!"

"I'm just kidding you. I can't always ask for your things for free." Liu Siying smiled slightly, picked up the soap on the table, and said, "This soap looks good and smells good. I'm curious where you bought it from?"

"This is a commercial secret, but if the monitor is interested, I will tell you directly..."

"Forget it, I'm just asking casually." Looking at the soap with petal patterns in her hand, Liu Siying's eyes flickered and a little girl's surprise appeared on her face.

"Everyone please go back to your desk first!"

At this moment, Meng Guangsheng, director of the night school management office, suddenly walked in with a stack of test papers in his hand and greeted everyone.

The next moment, everyone returned to their positions.

"Let me tell you something..." After seeing that all the students were seated, Meng Guangsheng looked around the stage and said, "Currently our night school is overcrowded. In order to prevent some people from filling in the numbers, we will conduct a basic test for everyone this time. Anyone who fails the test will be disqualified..."
