Chapter 431 Song Tianfu, the new factory director

In the era of planned economy, being able to become an employee of a state-owned enterprise and have an iron rice bowl is the dream of hundreds of millions of Chinese people.

Working in a state-owned enterprise is like entering a safe.

If you are sick, go to the staff hospital for treatment.

When the children grow up, they go to children's schools.

When the weather is cold in winter, there is a staff bathhouse.

I'm bored, there is a cinema in the factory.

After working for decades, my body is broken. After retirement, my children can inherit their father's position.

When I drive to Hexi someday, my work unit will have to send a few people to help with the funeral arrangements.

It is simply a "family rice bowl" that is planned to be passed on forever as if it were a throne.

For people of that era, no matter whether they were laid off at the time or not, and no matter how many years passed, the iron rice bowl was still their favorite in many people's minds.

No matter how much money this job makes.

Even in the eyes of some of them, those who do not hold an iron job are unstable and inferior to them.

Of course, this is just what some people think.

Normal people would not think this way, and at most they would try their best to secure this iron rice bowl.

In this iron rice bowl, the salary is not high, but the benefits are very high. The internal hierarchy is strict, and the phenomenon of seniority in salary ranking is quite common.

Because we eat from one big pot, egalitarianism prevails, and there is no crisis of unemployment, so efficiency is low and there are too many people to do the work.

Everyone is like that at work anyway, and I won’t be promoted or given more salary, so why should I work harder?

But no one could have imagined that one day, he would be laid off!

For example, what Si Chen and Song Tianfu saw in front of them.

Those who play poker, those who play mahjong, those who chat, those who drink tea, those who knit sweaters, those who put insoles, those who embroider...etc.!

Everyone is doing their own thing, except that the machines are not running and everyone is busy.

Si Chen frowned slightly. Didn't Si Yin solve the follow-up problems for these people?

It stands to reason that even if these people who hold the iron rice bowl are laid off, they will have to buy out their seniority in one lump sum.

For example, if someone has been working for many years and has 10 years left to retire, then ten years of salary will be paid in one lump sum.

This is different from the N1 compensation plan of current companies.

The great thing about the iron rice bowl is that employees cannot be fired without reason or even compensated.

Unless the employee made a mistake and was dismissed.

Si Chen and Song Tianfu, one was wearing a smoky gray suit and the other was wearing a light brown suit.

In addition, the two of them have an aura that is different from ordinary people. Compared with the people in front of them, they do stand out a little bit.

Finally, someone noticed them.

Among the people playing poker, a young man with narrowed eyes turned his elbow to the middle-aged man next to him and whispered:

"Director, here are two young men who look like dogs. Look!"

The middle-aged man who was called the factory director slowly turned around.

But when I saw him, he was wearing a dark blue work clothes. His shirt was not worn properly and was draped casually on his shoulders.

There was a cigarette in his mouth, and a long piece of ash burned out.

It seemed that he was busy playing poker and had no time to flick the cigarette ashes.

"Hey, boy, who are you two?" The factory director chewed on his cigarette and spoke a little unclearly. As he spoke, the cigarette ashes fell down:

"Do you know where this place is? How dare you break in? Believe it or not, I will have you killed!"

While speaking, the factory director gave the people around him a look.

The young man with squinting eyes took the lead in picking up a gun from the edge of the table and pointed it at Si Chen and the two of them:

"I'm so tired of living! How dare you break into our 4598 factory!"

Song Tianfu swallowed nervously and subconsciously retreated behind Si Chen.

Si Chen snorted and smiled, his eyes full of disdain:

"and who are you?"

"You brat, don't let me know that you are blind. This is our Factory Director Pan!"

"Factory director? Didn't Si Yin buy out all your years of service at once? How come I didn't know that I actually have a factory director here?"

As soon as Si Chen said these words, the air became quiet.

Everyone gathered around him.

The young man with narrowed eyes also choked.

Director Pan's eyes flickered and he said:

"We don't want compensation! We have to work here! Don't try to drive us away!"

"The factory is my home and everyone loves it. This is not a slogan, it is a promise given to us!"

"On behalf of all the workers in the factory, I must ask for an explanation here!"

"We are all people who have contributed to the construction of the motherland. We cannot be abandoned just because we are abandoned!"

Director Pan howled so loudly that other people immediately started shouting:

"Yes! We want to work! No compensation!"

"Kick us away, where will we live?"

"The welfare housing allocated by the work unit will be taken back as soon as you say. Have you considered how I will live?"

"My household registration in Longcheng is all with my work unit. Now that I'm kicked out, where will my household registration go?"

"My child is currently attending a middle school in the factory. We are both laid off. What will happen to our child?"

"What kind of things can you do with the little money you compensate?"

“It’s just enough to buy rice, vegetables, water and electricity bills, and you don’t have to spend money on your children’s schooling or clothing and warmth?”

"We don't want compensation, we just want to work!"

Song Tianfu had a headache after hearing it!

I understand, Si Chen’s plan is really cracking!

This group of hard-to-gnaw bones must be left to you to deal with.

Si Chen didn't panic and let them make noise.

There must be a thousand or ten thousand workers in public institutions holding iron rice bowls who are unwilling to be laid off.

Even if a factory that produces satellites lets them produce rubber shoes, they are willing to do so as long as they don't lay off workers.

From the issues they each care about, we can see that each one is a key issue that is in their own interests.

Now, Factory 4598 has been taken over by Si Chen and has been privatized.

In their hearts, Si Chen is just like the exploiting class that the previous generation defeated -

Capitalist lackeys!

Enemy of the people!!

The vampire who exploits the proletariat!!!

Si Chen had finished smoking one cigarette, and the crowd hadn't calmed down yet. The more they talked, the more excited they became.

Some people even want to take action.

Song Tianfu couldn't stand it anymore, so he hid behind Si Chen and tried to shout:

"Let me ask you guys, is there any misunderstanding in this?"

The crowd calmed down slightly, and three seconds later, the noise became even louder!

Si Chen threw the cigarette butt on the ground, crushed it with his kick, and said loudly:

"Stop arguing! Someone can speak to us on behalf of us!"

The noise gradually subsided. Director Pan's eyes scanned Si Chen back and forth, his eyes full of caution, and he asked:

"Who are you? Can you represent Si Yin?"

Si Chen said slowly:

"Song Tianfu is the new factory director here and can solve your problems."

Song Tianfu:?(⊙_⊙)??
