Chapter 494 One Ear and Black Cat Sheriff
If you stop thinking about things in this world, then there will be nothing.
But many things are so strange.
Suddenly, without realizing it, we were involved.
As the year draws to a close, the foodies at the steel mills are starting to get excited.
The idea of requesting a repeat of the banquet had been brought up several times at regular meetings.
Deputy Factory Director Li watched the situation with a smile. He didn't care. For him, he had no need to build relationships through food right now.
This is also normal. He was promoted to the position of deputy factory director and corresponding levels only in the past two years.
No matter how awesome he is, he can never defeat Comrade Yang, who is good at business.
The so-called having no desires and no demands, this is the mentality that Deputy Director Li has now.
Comrade Lao Yang did not comment, and he had more thoughts on this aspect.
After all, the suggestion to reopen the banquet was made by his subordinates.
There is nothing we can do about this.
Nowadays, we still need to abide by the rules when doing things, but it is the same in any year. If we just stick to the rules, even though things can still be done, it is basically impossible to stand out.
For example, the quantity of raw materials approved above is fixed.
Even if the steel mill wants to increase production, it will not be able to produce raw materials.
At this time, it is necessary to build relationships with all parties and let suppliers allocate more unplanned materials to the steel rolling mill.
Giving gifts or receiving kickbacks is tantamount to seeking death these days.
This thing is just like when the steel mill applied for soybeans and mung beans from the grain station. At most it's just a meal to make people happy.
They gave us a little more share.
So He Yuzhu's banquet is really a very important matter.
But Lao Yang was the head of the steel mill, and he knew what it would mean if he loosened the loophole.
So Lao Yang neither supports nor opposes it. He is just waiting for the real boss of the steel mill to express his opinion.
He Yuzhu is now also qualified to attend the meeting as an observer. What he means by attending the meeting as an observer is that he has to take notes with a pen when the boss speaks, and he is responsible for answering any questions the boss has.
The good thing about He Yuzhu is that he is a deputy.
Director Zheng is always at the forefront of everything.
For example, now the white-haired secretary is asking Director Zheng whether there are conditions for reopening the canteen for banquets.
Director Zheng stole a glance at Deputy Director Li, then glanced at Director Yang, and couldn't help but groan inwardly.
This guy, calling him out at this time is just to make him take the blame.
Whether he says it or not, he will offend a large number of people.
At this time, Director Zheng lowered his head and glanced at He Yuzhu beside him.
He Yuzhui drew a mouse on the notebook, but the key point was that this mouse only had one ear.
That shifty look made Director Zheng almost laugh out loud.
The mouse was lying on the ground with its hands raised high. Next to it stood a cat wearing a uniform, a police hat, and a small pistol on its waist, looking righteous.
But Director Zheng was not in the mood to laugh at this now. He was thinking about the meaning of He Yuzhu's painting.
The embarrassed mouse and the cat stepping on the mouse's tail, is this thing hinting at something?
Director Zheng has always known that He Yuzhu is a talented person. It can be said that if He Yuzhu wanted to compete with him, given He Yuzhu's popularity in the factory, he might not be able to defeat He Yuzhu.
But He Yuzhu always adhered to his duties and never thought of challenging his position as the director of the canteen.
Director Zheng's mind was working rapidly. He was thinking quickly about what He Yuzhu wanted to express by painting this.
Rats steal food and are hated by everyone.
A cat, a cat wearing a police hat, what does it represent?
At this time, the white-haired secretary coughed dryly and continued to ask: "Director Zheng, is this question so difficult to answer? Don't you know whether the canteen has the ability to reopen the reception?"
The white-haired secretary's tone was already wrong, which made Director Zheng break out in a cold sweat.
He gritted his teeth and said: "Secretary, factory director, and leaders, let alone now, even in the past two years, our canteen could support a small canteen.
Whether it is the canteen purchasing or the chef.
We all have the best talents.
For example, our Deputy Director He cooks personally, and no customer ever complains about the food.
What I am considering now is not whether it can be opened, but the impact.
According to my personal understanding, we would rather be slower and lag behind other factories in this regard, but we cannot be ahead of other factories.
This is not because we have not thought about the difficulties faced by our comrades abroad.
But the bird that sticks out gets shot at first, and it will be targeted by the higher-ups.
The blame will still fall on Director Yang and Deputy Director Li.
So my personal opinion is to wait a little longer.”
He Yuzhu glanced at Director Zheng in surprise. This old fox had always been trying to smooth things over.
Like the previous two times, Director Zheng pushed it to the purchasing department.
But this time, Director Zheng clearly expressed his disagreement.
This surprised He Yuzhu.
He didn't expect that the cat and mouse he drew for his daughter out of boredom would be misunderstood by Director Zheng.
He Yuzhu now has no ambitions in his career. All his energy and happiness are invested in his eldest daughter.
Like He Yuzhu now, he has fallen in love with carpentry.
He often goes outside to pick up some rotten wood and makes some strange things for his daughter.
For example, there was a fat baby with a big gourd on his head, and there were six of them at a time, but Liu Ting said there were seven.
Liu Ting was fooled into counting several times, but the total number was always six.
When asked again, He Yuzhu said that one of them had become invisible.
Liu Ting "violently beat" He Yuzhu, but she didn't know that He Yuzhu had really seen the invisible Calabash Brothers in his previous life.
After Director Zheng finished answering, the sweat on his head flowed down his cheeks and double chin like water from a tap, and dripped onto the table.
And those small leaders who had just proposed to reopen the banquet all shut up.
These people made the suggestion only because there are tall people to hold up the sky if it falls.
After all, they proposed that it should be done in the factory, and such things would not be recorded. After all, it was a matter of eating and drinking and could not be made public.
But if there is criticism from above, the ones who will naturally be scolded are Lao Yang and Lao Li who is in charge of logistics.
If they really need to be punished, they will only hit the people in the cafeteria and Lao Li.
But this concerns everyone's welfare, even Lao Yang can't refuse it with just one sentence.
Now Director Zheng, a small-time figure, has revealed all the risks.
If anyone brings it up again, it means they are trying to cause trouble.
The three big men looked at the participants and saw that no one said anything. The white-haired secretary took the lead, followed by Old Yang and finally Old Li.
They clapped together, "Pa pa..."
He Yuzhu hurriedly closed his notebook and started clapping as well.
