Rebirth of the Industrial Tycoon

Li Weidong knew that the transportation companies before 1986 were very short of tires.

After several years of reform and opening up, there is no longer a shortage of civilian materials such as food and cloth, but the supply of industrial products is still lacking in general. For example, tires are scarce materials that even money cannot buy.

At that time, there was no policy of annual inspection and compulsory scrapping of automobiles. As long as the vehicles are properly maintained, a vehicle can be used for 20 years. The old liberation produced in the 1960s has absolutely no problem in driving it into the 1980s. There are many old liberations produced in the 1960s.

However, it is impossible for the tires of the car to be used for 20 years. The car pulls goods all day long, and the tires always wear out. Moreover, the rubber product of tires, even if it is not used there, will begin to decay after six years, and it cannot be used even after the decay is severe.

Therefore, for transportation companies, tires are a necessary consumable.

However, since the 1980s, China's economy has gradually become active, and the business volume of the transportation industry has begun to increase exponentially. The planned tires can no longer meet the needs of transportation companies. Simply put, tires are in short supply.

Therefore, in a short period of time, there was a tire shortage. For transportation companies, the supply of tires in the plan is insufficient, and the car can only lie at home, which will not bring economic benefits, so they can only buy tires from outside the plan.

The same is true for the transportation company in Qinghe. The planned tires are exhausted in half the time, and they can only rely on the purchase of unplanned tires to maintain the operation of the vehicle.

In Li Weidong's impression, in the Qinghe Transportation Company at the end of 1984, the shortage of tires was already very serious. Some routes with bad road conditions are simply not connected to avoid excessive tire consumption.

When you go out, try to form a large team as much as possible, and then bring less spare tires. For example, five cars are produced at a time, and these five cars only have one spare tire, so that more tires can be saved.

It is miserable enough for a state-owned transportation enterprise with several thousand people to be mixed up like this.

However, Wang Haibin, the head of the procurement department, is an incompetent sycophant. He is good at trolling and has poor business skills. Even if he is given enough money, he can't buy tires.

Li Weidong remembered the lack of tires, so when he was at the Red Star Factory, he asked Liu Xueqin for the tire purchase index.

...

Li Weidong walked into the office behind Cui Dashan, and greeted the secretary Yu Zhengcheng and the general manager Zhu Shicong successively.

Yu Zhengcheng pointed to the sofa next to him, motioned the two to sit down, and then said, "Okay, everyone is here, let's talk, what's going on?"

Wang Haibin immediately commented: "It's our procurement office's business to find manufacturers to return goods. Li Weidong went to manufacturers to return goods without permission, which seriously interfered with our procurement office's business. This kind of unorganized and undisciplined behavior should be punished."

After Wang Haibin finished speaking, he looked at Li Weidong again, and continued: "Little Li, in front of the two leaders, you should quickly admit your mistake, write a serious inspection, and try to get one to be dealt with lightly!"

I have to say that Wang Haibin is still a bit scheming. He just blamed Li Weidong, but he never mentioned the auto repair workshop, which is equivalent to shifting the responsibility to Li Weidong himself and avoiding direct conflict with the auto repair workshop.

You know, if Wang Haibin is involved in the auto repair workshop, it will become a conflict between departments, and the company leaders will most likely solve the problem by means of muddy mud.

If the responsibility is placed on the individual, it becomes a conflict between the individual and the collective. Even if the individual does the right thing, he will be charged with breaking away from the collective and disregarding the overall situation.

These routines of wearing small shoes were learned by Wang Haibin in his struggle life more than ten years ago, and now they are just used on Li Weidong.

Of course, Cui Dashan wanted to defend Li Weidong, he explained: "Two leaders, I have also reported on the batch of substandard parts of the Red Star Factory at the company's regular meeting.

However, the purchasing department has been slow to return the goods. If the batch of substandard parts has not been returned by the time of settlement at the end of the month, it will be included in the expenses of our workshop, and the whole workshop will have to deduct bonuses. That's why I asked Li Weidong to go to the Pingzhou Red Star Factory and returned the substandard parts. "

Cui Dashan is indeed a good boss, and he took the initiative to put the responsibility on himself.

Cui Dashan is in his early fifties, and he is still a middle-level cadre at his age, which means that it is impossible to continue to rise, so Cui Dashan doesn't mind helping his men to beat the thunder, anyway, the company can't remove him as the auto repair workshop director.

Wang Haibin glared at Cui Dashan with some dissatisfaction, and then explained: "It's not that we don't give back to the auto repair workshop, but because the business has been too busy recently, we put the return on the back. I was going to be busy. After a while, I sent someone to the Red Star Factory to return it."

General Manager Zhu Shicong also said at this time: "I am in charge of the purchasing department. They have indeed been doing a lot of business recently, and it is estimated that they will not be busy until the end of the year."

With Zhu Shicong's support, Wang Haibin was more confident. He said: "It is an indisputable fact that Li Weidong interfered with the business of our procurement office. If everyone is like Li Weidong in the future, they will buy goods at will without going through the procurement office. If we return the goods, how should the business of our purchasing department be carried out? So I think the company should immediately stop this illegitimate ethos and give Li Weidong a certain punishment, so as to set an example."

Zhu Shicong, who came to help out, nodded immediately: "Director Wang is right, it is said that no rules can be made without rules, we are such a big company with thousands of employees, if everyone does his own way, he will do other things. The business of the department, then the whole company will be messed up! This trend must not rise! Each department performs its own responsibilities and does its own business well, so that the company can operate normally. "

Zhu Shicong looked at Li Weidong again, pretending to be kind and happy, and said, "Xiao Li, it is indeed your fault for returning the goods. This is the business of the purchasing department, and it is not your responsibility. By doing this, you are interfering with the work of the Procurement Office. You must deeply reflect on it, seriously review it, or set an example, and you must never make this mistake again!”

Wang Haibin and Zhu Shicong sang together, and they were about to set Li Weidong's "guilt".

Li Weidong smiled coldly, and he said, "General Manager Zhu, I went to the Red Star Factory to return the goods, but I did not delay my business. This is on the basis of completing my own work and helping the brothers' departments to solve difficulties. We are all one company. Is it a mistake to help each other comrades? According to this statement, how many major demerits should Comrade Lei be remembered? I kindly and tirelessly helped the procurement department. Did you make a mistake?"

"We don't need your help with our procurement office! Don't meddle in your business with mice!" Wang Haibin snorted coldly.

Li Weidong smiled slightly and said: "Director Wang, your sales office cannot complete the tasks assigned by the company, you are the primary responsibility, although you are also very hardworking, but your business ability is not strong. But others are kind and kind to help you, you If you don't appreciate it, but you slap it down, that's what you're doing wrong!"

"Who do you say is not strong in business!" Wang Haibin was instantly furious.

Li Weidong has already torn his face with Wang Haibin, and naturally he will no longer save face for him. He continued: "Director Wang, if your business ability is strong enough, why is our company still short of tires? The purchase of tires is from your purchasing department. Business, right? The freight office has five vehicles sharing a spare tire. Why didn’t I see you buying the tire? Isn’t the purchasing office busy with business? It’s so busy that you haven’t gotten a tire. Strong!"

Li Weidong's words directly exposed Wang Haibin's shortcomings.

Wang Haibin was instantly annoyed and angry: "You auto mechanic, what do you know about purchasing! Do you think purchasing is so easy? Do you know how hard it is to buy tires these days!"

"Yeah, if you can't buy it, it's hard to buy it. It's not because of your lack of business ability. In short, everything is caused by objective factors, and you have no responsibility at all." Li Weidong said sarcastically.

"Li Weidong, don't stand and talk without your back hurting. If you have the ability, go buy tires? If you can buy tires, I, the purchasing director, will do it for you!" Wang Haibin roared in exasperation.

"That's what you said." Li Weidong put his hand into his pocket and took out the red star factory's 250 tire approval slip.
