When will I have a long tassel?

Linyiji's labor service company has a long history, which can be traced back to the family factory established in the 1950s. Its main function is to accommodate family members of single-employee families so that they can have something to do. There is a reason why I use "them" instead of "them" here, and that is that 100% of domestic workers back then were women.

By the early 1980s, a large number of unemployed young people appeared in Linyiji, all of whom were children of workers. In order to accommodate these young people, Linyiji expanded the family factory into a labor service company, and handed over many chores in the factory to the labor service company. At its peak, the labor service company had as many as 2,000 people.

After more than ten years, most of the formerly unemployed young people have found jobs. Some have taken their parents' jobs and worked in factories, while others have gotten rid of their unemployment status by going to college or joining the army.

Now, the labor service company has returned to its original function of arranging employees' family members. There are now more than 800 family workers, working in two family-owned factories, several markets, stores and other units, and receiving a family worker salary.

As an organization with 800 employees, the Labor Service Company also has its own office building. Although it is only a two-story building, it has a manager's office, conference room, financial room, mailroom, etc.

When Tang Zifeng walked into the office building, the receptionist came to him aggressively for questioning. When he heard that he was the new assistant director of the factory, the face of the front desk lady quickly changed from thunderstorm to cloudless, and she trotted all the way to give Tang Zifeng led the way and took him to the manager Zhang Jianyang's office.

"Assistant Tang, you're here, please sit down, please sit down. Oh, why didn't Assistant Tang say hello in advance when he was coming? I have no preparations here. Just wait, I will call the small store to deliver it. Order some fruit snacks..."

When Zhang Jianyang met Tang Zifeng, he was in a hurry again as usual, making Tang Zifeng dumbfounded. He pressed Zhang Jianyang's hand as he was about to take the phone receiver and said, "Old Zhang, just save it. We are all from the same factory, do you need to be so polite? Let Director Zhou know if you are planning to carry another one." Punishment?"

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Jianyang's face darkened at a speed visible to the naked eye. He smiled reluctantly, gave up the plan of making a call, sat down on a chair next to him, and said to Tang Zifeng: "Assistant Tang, look... I, Lao Zhang, have been working in an office for more than ten years, and I don't have any skills. If not, I can only wait on people. You don’t know what the employees in the factory call me behind their backs.”

"What's it called?" Tang Zifeng asked curiously.

"They call me Xiao Zhangzi."

"Xiao Zhangzi, hahaha... uh, how could these people do this!" Tang Zifeng understood the joke and was about to laugh, but felt it was inappropriate, so he could only cut off the laughter abruptly, He changed into a face of indignation.

Zhang Jianyang didn't care. This kind of insulting title naturally made people angry when he heard it for the first time, but after hearing it too much, he became numb. He smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "Well, I'm doing this kind of work when I stay in the factory office. It's not wrong for the employees to call me that. But, alas..."

He originally wanted to complain, but then he thought about it. Tang Zifeng was brought by Zhou Heng. What was the use of complaining in front of Tang Zifeng? Maybe these words would reach Zhou Heng's ears, and he would suffer another disaster. . He and Tang Zifeng haven't gotten to know each other well enough to complain, so it's okay to be miserable.

Tang Zifeng knew the meaning behind Zhang Jianyang's sigh. He said, "Old Zhang, Director Zhou had no choice but to do what happened this time. You still have to understand."

"Of course I understand. The factory is in such a slump and the masses are complaining a lot. It's appropriate for Director Zhou to punish me to calm the complaints." Zhang Jianyang quickly confessed.

Tang Zifeng added: "But, Lao Zhang, do you know why Director Zhou arranged for you to be a manager in a labor service company?"

"Um..., I really don't know." Zhang Jianyang replied. In his opinion, Zhou Heng's sending him to the labor service company was just a means of punishment, because compared to the factory office, the labor service company was a complete cold shoulder. Placing him in a labor service company is equivalent to relegating a eunuch to the cold palace, or sending a palace maid to guard the mausoleum...well, there seems to be something wrong, but that's definitely the meaning. But now that Tang Zifeng specifically mentioned this matter, could it be that Zhou Heng's move had other meanings?

Tang Zifeng wanted this effect. He changed to a more comfortable position on the sofa and said leisurely: "I know you don't know, so do you still have some complaints about Factory Director Zhou's arrangements? "

"No, no, how dare I complain?" Zhang Jianyang denied continuously.

"Are you afraid to have it, or are you not?"

"Just not!"

"Not at all?"

"No!"

"It's okay, you should have some opinions..."

"Uh..." Zhang Jianyang was really convinced by Tang Zifeng. Who wouldn't complain about this kind of thing? Is it really interesting for you to ask people like this? But when Tang Zifeng was pushed to this point, he felt that there was no point in denying it anymore, so he evaded the important point and said, "Assistant Tang must ask this. I can only say that I don't understand a little, and there is definitely no complaint." Factory The decision-making of the leader must have the intention of the factory leader. As a subordinate, how can I question the decision of the leader?"

Tang Zifeng nodded and said, "Well, you're right, Lao Zhang. I came here today to explain to you Director Zhou's intentions. In fact, Director Zhou arranged for you to work at a labor service company. The manager is not here to punish you, but to give you a chance to get ahead."

"Opportunity?" Zhang Jianyang was really surprised this time. He was not sure whether Tang Zifeng was comforting him or something else. Being demoted from a factory office to a labor service company means you are getting further and further away from opportunities, okay? Why did Tang Zifeng say that he was given a chance?

Tang Zifeng said: "Lao Zhang, you and Director Zhou have known each other in the past, and you are relatively familiar with them, right?"

"Yes." Zhang Jianyang nodded.

"At that time, Director Zhou admired your talents very much, right?"

"This..., I really don't know."

"That's okay, don't you know it now?" Tang Zifeng said domineeringly, "This time, Director Zhou told me before we set off from the capital that Linyiji has a very capable young cadre. , could have played a great role, but it is a pity that the original leader of Linyiji lacked vision and put such a capable cadre in the factory office to do waiter work all day long, which wasted the person."

"Director Zhou said...it couldn't be me, right?" Zhang Jianyang couldn't believe it. He quickly recalled his past dealings with Zhou Heng in his mind, and vaguely felt that Zhou Heng seemed to have praised him. Did he also say something like "Xiao Zhang is very capable"?

By the way, one time Zhou Heng came to inspect the work of a machine, and he, Zhang Jianyang, accompanied him throughout the process. That time, his performance was still very good. Did Zhou Heng discover his talent that time?

Things like YY can easily enter a self-loop. Tang Zifeng's few words put Zhang Jianyang into a state of self-anaesthesia. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Tang Zifeng was telling the truth.

He is talented to begin with. How could Zhou Heng, such a wise and visionary person, not see his own talent?

Zhou Heng also specifically mentioned himself to Tang Zifeng before leaving Beijing, which shows that his status in Zhou Heng's mind is much higher than that of others. So, this time Zhou Heng demoted himself to the labor service company, could it be true? Do you mean to give yourself a chance?

Seeing Zhang Jianyang's face gradually turn from cloudy to sunny, Tang Zifeng felt relieved: this elder brother had been deceived and entered a state of feeling good about himself. He would not believe him if he said anything else.

Tang Zifeng was right about one thing, that is, Zhou Heng did talk to Tang Zifeng about Zhang Jianyang, but not in the capital, but after arriving in Linhe. Zhou Heng's evaluation of Zhang Jianyang is that he is confused on big things but understands small things. He is relatively flexible in dealing with people and is still useful. Of course, Tang Zifeng would not tell Zhang Jianyang this evaluation as it is. It is still necessary to cover it up appropriately to make Lao Zhang fall into a confused confidence.

"So... Director Zhou transferred you out of the factory office and assigned you to the labor service company in the name of punishing you." Tang Zifeng said in a concluding tone.

"But I still don't understand." Zhang Jianyang asked for advice sincerely this time, "Assistant Tang, Director Zhou asked me to come to the labor service company. What can I do? The labor service company is just a service department for the placement of family members. , what can I accomplish here?"

"That's your problem!" Tang Zifeng said, "The Labor Service Company is a place with great potential. Let me ask you, which is the most promising sunrise industry in the 21st century?"

"I don't know." Zhang Jianyang shook his head. Speaking of which, there are quite a few sunrise industries that experts have talked about in recent years. Some are high-tech industries, some are energy-saving and environmentally friendly industries, as well as biotechnology, information highways, etc., which made him a little dizzy. . When Tang Zifeng asked this, he really didn't know what Tang Zifeng meant.

Tang Zifeng said with a somewhat resentful attitude: "It's the tertiary industry! Haven't you studied central documents?"

Zhang Jianyang nodded blankly, as if there was indeed such a reference in a certain document. The Assistant Tang in front of me was a top student from a prestigious school and was sent by the ministry. He must have a deeper understanding of central government documents, so he should take whatever he said.

Tang Zifeng continued: "What is the tertiary industry? To put it simply, it is the service industry. Our company Linyiji belongs to the secondary industry and has fallen behind, so we are losing money. But this is not the case for labor service companies. Labor service companies are the tertiary industry. , so it is a sunrise industry with great potential. Factory Director Zhou removed you from your position as deputy director of the factory office. Instead of letting you leave the workshop, he asked you to be the leader of the labor service company. Don’t you still understand Factory Director Zhou’s intentions? ?”

"So that's it?" Zhang Jianyang showed an expression of sudden realization, but he was muttering in his heart: The entire Linyiji industry is an outdated industry, and only Labor Clothing Company is a rising industry. Why is this so unbelievable?
