On the one hand, the Linyi Machinery Factory had an unwavering attitude, and on the other hand, the labor service company made every effort to expand resettlement channels. The diversion work of 1,500 redundant employees was finally completed calmly. Although some people were still petitioning and complaining, they could no longer cause any storm. After the first batch of people who started their businesses under the support of the labor service company got considerable benefits, those who only knew how to chatter and complained about their unfair fate would eventually become the laughing stock of the entire factory.

After the work of relocating and diversion workers came to an end, Linyiji held another massive commendation meeting to commend people who have made significant contributions to Linyiji's escape from difficulties in the past six months, including engineers from the technical department, outstanding technicians in the workshop, sales staff from the sales department, and family workers in labor service companies.

The two most eye-catching people at the commendation meeting were Han Weichang and Huang Liting. The former's contribution lies in the fact that he keenly discovered the business opportunities of the baling machine and innovatively proposed the concept of "flake packaging", opening up a new market for the first-machine, achieving an output value of nearly 50 million yuan. The latter's contribution lies in the contracting of stores in the East District, and paying more than 100,000 yuan in profits in half a year, setting an example for encouraging employees to start their own businesses.

At the commendation meeting, Han Weichang and Huang Liting received a commendation of 50,000 yuan respectively. It was said to be a commendation. In fact, the former received a business commission promised by the factory, while the latter received a contract dividend. Huang Liting had already received a contract dividend before. This time, she borrowed 50,000 yuan in cash from the Finance Department and left a formality in front of everyone. After the commendation, the money would still be returned to the Finance Department.

As for the other commended people, they also received rewards ranging from several hundred to one thousand yuan. Although they were incomparable to the rewards received by Han and Huang, they were also jealous enough.

Zhou Heng chose to hold a commendation meeting at this time to disclose the huge income Han Weichang and Huang Liting received, which was also considered. He wanted to use this method to let the employees in the factory see hope. Previously, in order to put psychological pressure on the diverted personnel, the factory created many rumors, which caused considerable harm to the employees of the factory. The purpose of this large-scale commendation is to offset the influence of the rumors and let everyone understand that when you are willing to work hard and have some abilities, you can get rich.

The commendation conference was effective. For several days, the hot topics in the factory were about how to make money. Especially the sales staff in the sales office were all taught a lesson by their families, asking them why they could not make a big news like Han Weichang. Han Weichang was not a business staff member at all, but was just an engineer, but he was able to get back more than 20 million yuan in business, and his commission was cramped. Why do you serious business outside have no ability?

As for the agency and other personnel in the workshop, they all used their brains to think about how to do some extraordinary work in ordinary positions so that some extraordinary numbers appear on ordinary salary slips.

Of course, negative impacts are inevitable. For example, after Han Weichang returned home with 50,000 yuan in cash, he encountered the trouble of happiness. Within one day, he received hundreds of guests who came to congratulate, borrow money, and propose marriage. Don’t get me wrong. The last type of person was not here to introduce an affair to Lao Han, but he fell in love with his two sons, one 17 and the other 15...

Another major measure in the factory was also introduced at this time, that is, according to Tang Zifeng's proposal, the factory has freed up three office buildings that are most dependent on the edge of the factory for renting to the public. Nowadays, the rent of office buildings in Xialinhe is about 1 yuan per square meter per day, and one office building is about 2,000 square meters, and the rent for a year is more than 700,000 yuan, and the three buildings can receive more than 2 million yuan.

The rental income of an office building is different from the output value of the product produced. Production of products requires investment. A output value of 2 million can also bring about a gross profit of 600,000, which is mostly wages, and the net profit has to be discounted. Rental income is basically profit, and at most costs such as maintenance and management are spent, and the proportion is very limited.

"Several measures are put into effect at the same time. It is expected that the financial situation in the factory this year should be relatively optimistic. Even if the level of comprehensive profit cannot be reached, break-even should be at least able to be achieved. There is no problem in paying full wages for employees."

At the factory meeting, Chief Economist Ning Suyun said confidently after introducing the revenue and expenditure of the complete factory.

"It's really not easy!" Deputy Secretary Shi Disha sighed, "At this time last year, the most discussed part of the factory meeting was how to go to the bank to coordinate and borrow some money to pay part of the salary. Since Director Zhou took office, it has been less than five months since the factory's appearance has been completely renewed. It's really amazing."

"This also shows that the Party Committee of the Bureau is keen and sent a wise leader like Director Zhou to the next round, which is indeed extraordinary." Zhang Shu also said with interest.

Zhou Heng smiled and said, "Lao Shi, Lao Zhang, there is no need for us to praise each other like this, right? The improvement in the line of Yiji is the result of the joint efforts of everyone here. What can I do by relying on myself?"

"Our collective achievements should indeed be affirmed. But as the squad leader of our collective, Director Zhou should be the first to make a contribution. Not to mention anything else, just after Director Zhou took office, he decisively sold the Mercedes-Benz and reimbursed the retired workers for medical expenses. This is not something other leaders can think of or do. Another point is that Director Zhou dares to boldly activate young people and entrust important tasks, which is also a rare courage." Deputy Director Zhu Yachao said.

Wu Weiqin smiled and said, "Old Zhu, the young man you are talking about should be of some meaning, right?"

Zhu Yachao also laughed. He pointed at Tang Zifeng, who was sitting in a corner of the conference table with his hand and said, "That's self-evident. I'm talking about Xiao Tang. I heard that Xiao Tang was the one who Director Zhou insisted on bringing him to the Linyi Aircraft. At first, some leaders in the bureau didn't agree with it, thinking that Xiao Tang was too young and could not take on the heavy responsibility.

"But practice shows that Xiao Tang is a rare talent. Going to Jinche to collect debts, develop baler business, and get computers for the technical department are all achievements that everyone can see. I think there is another thing that everyone ignores, that is, the labor service company can achieve today, which is inseparable from Xiao Tang's efforts.

"Think about it, if the labor service company is still the same, not only can't make money, but also needs subsidies from the factory, then where can we divert 1,500 people this time? If the resettlement of these 1,500 people cannot be completed, how could such a great situation happen in the factory?"

"Yes, I think Xiao Tang's greatest contribution is to revitalize the labor service company." Zhang Shu echoed.

Tang Zifeng quickly expressed his humility: "Director Zhu, Director Zhang, you are acclaimed. The labor service company can achieve today is actually the work that Manager Zhang does. I just beat him on the edge. Director Zhou arranged Manager Zhang to the labor service company, which was the key to the whole thing. The facts show that Zhang Jianyang did a very good job in that position."

"Zhang Jianyang's work is indeed worthy of recognition." Zhou Heng said, "Xiao Tang gave him some ideas, but it still takes some energy to implement these ideas. I have learned that Zhang Jianyang has talked hundreds of times in the past few months. For example, the business adjustments of shops, restaurants, and several affiliated factories in the East District were all personal. Family workers and later diverted personnel were groups that were not easy to do work. It was indeed very difficult for Zhang Jianyang to do the work of these people. This also proves that Zhang Jianyang has both work ability and enthusiasm for work, and deserves praise."

"That's true." Zhu Yachao nodded, "Zhang Jianyang was a man who was more careful when he was the deputy director of the factory office and could endure humiliation. Director Zhou removed him from his position as deputy director of the factory office and asked him to be a manager in the labor service company. Everyone said it was a punishment, but it was very rare for him to achieve results in this position, which made me look at him a little differently."

Wu Weiqin said: "I have an idea. The labor service company may be the most obvious department in our factory. It turned out that this department belongs to the Logistics Department, but is just a section-level unit. Now it can make a profit of hundreds of thousands a year, and it manages 800 family workers and 1,500 formal employees who are diverted. It is almost 1/3 of our factory's scale. It is a bit inappropriate to maintain the establishment of a section-level unit. I think it should be raised?"

"I agree!" Zhang Shu raised his hand and said, "In fact, when the factory committee initially decided to let Xiao Tang take charge of the labor service company, the labor service company was no longer under the jurisdiction of the logistics department. Now, it is legitimate to raise its level and directly act as a department."

Shi Disha also said: "I also think it should be improved a little bit. Good guy, there are more than 20 second-level companies under it. Is this still like a department-level unit?"

"But our department-level unit is not that large-scale, right?" Zhu Yachao reminded.

Shi Disha smiled and said, "Why, Lao Zhu, are you still planning to promote Zhang Jianyang to be the factory leader?"

"This is not enough," said Zhu Yachao.

Tang Zifeng took over the conversation and said, "Secretary Shi, Director Zhu, I think that if everyone admits that Zhang Jianyang's work in the past period is effective, then it is not an exaggeration to reward him in terms of merit and promote him to be an assistant to the factory manager. I once thought that in the future, the labor service company should assume half of the factory's canteen, guesthouse, hospital, school, etc., which can be divided into the labor service company, and the factory headquarters only needs to focus on the main business.

"At that time, we will stop calling it a labor service company. Give it a formal name, a science and trade industry company, or something like that, becoming an independent legal person, or even financing and listing, it is OK."

"This step is a bit too big, right?"
