That year the flowers bloomed 1981

Chapter 1121 Flags and Chess Pieces

"Reporter Yue, in fact, our factory is not as special as you say. We just introduced two production lines by chance and then accepted a large number of unemployed young people.

The sudden increase in young workers has led to a shortage of management cadres, so we have made internal transfers to fill the gaps as usual. The so-called written tests and interviews are just a form of selection.

This is a precedent in the history of our company, so if you praise our factory as a model of the times, it is really too much of a compliment to us. We are unworthy of it and it is absolutely unacceptable."

Li Ye only chatted with Yue Mengmeng for a while but he guessed her general intention, so he expressed his intention in advance, "We are mediocre, you should go and praise others."

But as a veteran journalist, Yue Mengmeng naturally has a spirit of "perseverance" and would never give up easily.

She took out her interview notebook and flipped through it while saying, "Li Ye, you are still as humble as before.
Since last year, your first branch has formulated talent admission standards. Workers with less than a high school diploma are not accepted, and college or technical secondary school graduates who are not in the right major are not accepted."

"Compared with other units that still have the same employment policy as the 'big pot', this is undoubtedly a big step forward, so we should promote it nationwide."

[If I want to promote it nationwide, do I still need you? ]

Li Ye couldn't help but complain in his heart.

He has been in close contact with Dong Yuejin over the years, and he also asked his mother Fu Guiru to inject a large amount of "sponsorship" into Dong Yuejin. Therefore, he has his own channels in terms of public opinion. Why does he need others to promote him?
However, Yue Mengmeng continued, "Li Ye, I know you don't like to be high-profile. You are obviously very outstanding, but you always don't fight or compete.

I still remember you at the sports meet. You could have jumped two meters, but you came in second.
But now you are no longer a student, and you are no longer facing classmates who are dedicated to learning, but competitors who are better than you."

"You are a typical reform experiment of a branch factory and a machinery department, but you are not well-known in the country. It will be a good thing for you, me and the country if we publish an article together."

"."

After hearing Yue Mengmeng's last words, Li Ye was surprised by her frankness.

Yue Mengmeng clearly said "It's a good thing for me."

So Li Ye asked clearly: "Why do you have to write this article against me? What good will it do you after this article is published?"

"What good will it do me? Is that even necessary?"

Yue Mengmeng smiled awkwardly and said, "We journalists, like you, need to make achievements in order to continue to make progress.

Your achievements are production efficiency, while our achievements are articles that are true, excellent, in-depth and relevant to reality. "

"It is a recognized fact that the staff structure of mainland enterprises is bloated. Everyone is trying to change it, but there are very few who succeed. Your company is a very successful example.
Once the promotion is successful, your future will be limitless, and I can also be promoted to a higher level, and maybe even become the editor-in-chief."

Yue Mengmeng was very frank, but Li Ye smiled and said, "Reporter Yue, our factory doesn't have that much promotional value. If you don't believe me, you can ask your husband to organize a light industrial unit to come for a visit and then let them promote it first!"

Yue Lingshan smiled embarrassedly and said, "Although Zhu Xinping was promoted to a full-time official last year, he can't do whatever he wants in his unit."

Li Ye immediately asked: "Has he ever thought about using the success story of a branch factory to promote reform and promotion in the light industry?"

Yue Lingshan was silent for a moment, then whispered, "I'm just doing my best."

"."

Li Ye didn't ask any more questions.

Zhu Xinping was once on the Peking University Honor Roll, and he graduated four years earlier than Li Ye. He also went to work in a ministry, but now he is at the same level as Li Ye?
The section level of a ministry is not the same as Li Ye’s section level. So, does he still have the same high-spirited look as he did in the past?

Yue Mengmeng originally found Zhu Xinping as her boyfriend and even boasted about it to Li Ye. How does she feel now?
If you are slow in one step, all steps will be slow. Countless talented people in the world are stuck in government agencies. Once they are delayed for a few years, they may end up living in mediocrity for the rest of their lives.

Think about my brother-in-law Yang Yumin, who has some impressive works in his hands and the halo of "making foreign exchange", he is definitely a good writer.

That was how it was. When he first joined the Central Selection Department, Wen Qingsheng even invited a big boss from his unit to dinner, which gave him some foothold.

Later, Li Ye raised money and connections to organize a snowy area tomb sweeping event and filmed a documentary, which received unanimous praise from the authorities. Only this year did he get his own office.
So think about it, how difficult is this path of internal circulation?

Decades later, some people said that the mainland deliberately allowed a group of people with the highest IQ and the most compulsiveness to be continuously recruited into government agencies, allowing them to be compulsive for the rest of their lives. This was a very clever way of governing the country.

Of course there are people who lie flat, but there is never a shortage of roll kings, right?
Let’s not talk about anything else, let’s just talk about Yue Mengmeng’s current situation.

Zhu Xinping was not successful in the Ministry of Light Industry, so if there was an opportunity, would he not work hard? Even if there was no opportunity, he would continue to look for and create opportunities.

So Li Ye was a little suspicious. Was he trying to make some achievements by relying on the successful case of a branch factory and his wife's article in the newspaper?

If you want to get things done within an organization, you must first convince your superiors. If you only rely on a PPT, the persuasiveness will definitely be limited.

But if we take a branch factory as an example, it would be much better.

In three years, the number of employees increased twenty times, the revenue increased dozens of times, and the profits submitted were even more astonishing.

In other words, the reason why Xue Mengmeng chose the first branch factory as the material was because of its amazing development speed. However, Li Ye eventually disappointed Yue Mengmeng.

"Reporter Yue, if you want to say that our first branch actively undertakes social responsibilities, then I fully agree, and we have been doing so.
But if you want to say that the unemployed young people in society have no jobs because they do not meet the requirements of the employers and have to find a way out on their own, I cannot accept that.”

"."

Yue Lingshan was stunned. It was obvious that Li Ye had guessed what she was thinking.

But after a moment of silence, she said excitedly: "So you have also noticed this irreconcilable contradiction, then we should be more decisive and throw away the bloated burden, and isn't that what you are doing?
There are so many idle people in society, waiting for the state to support them every day. If they continue like this, they will always rely on the state and never make any progress.

[I want to change this country, but I didn’t say to remove responsibility? ]

Li Ye became cautious.

Because some journalists these days are very radical, I feel that Yue Mengmeng's remarks are intended to break the "guaranteed job allocation" policy.

This awareness was at least five years ahead of the actual situation. After 1994, two-way choice emerged, and college and technical school students and unemployed young people in the mainland finally lost the treatment of guaranteed job assignment.

So what kind of reaction would Yue Mengmeng’s slogan of “breaking the iron rice bowl” cause at this time?

Will she become a banner?

You may not know it, but Yue Mengmeng definitely wants to become a banner and fight for a bright future.

But Li Ye already has a bright future, so does he need to be so radical?

Once a branch factory becomes a typical example of “breaking the iron rice bowl”, countless people from all over the country will come to visit and inspect it, and slice and analyze the branch factory under a microscope.

Where there are supporters, there are also opponents.

By then, the first branch factory would become the main battlefield between the "pros and cons", and the quarrels would delay Li Ye's original plan.

So Li Ye said seriously: "Reporter Yue, I cannot agree with this matter. It is your right to write an article to report the facts, but you must not exaggerate.

The recruitment system of our first branch is very ordinary. If it is distorted into a 'panacea' that can solve the current difficulties of mainland enterprises, it is inappropriate and we will never allow it. "

"."

Yue Mengmeng was stunned for a long time, and suddenly asked: "You don't want to be the first to stand out, right?"

Li Ye remained silent, neither answering nor nodding.

There is a Dark Forest Law in "The Three-Body Problem", which states that every civilization is a hunter lurking in the woods, and they must stay hidden as much as possible to avoid being discovered by other hunters.

If a civilization discovers another civilization, there is only one thing it can do - destroy it.

Because in the dark forest, others are enemies and are an eternal threat. Any life that exposes its existence will be extremely dangerous.

Putting aside the fact that both sides used the branch factory as a battlefield, Li Ye knew how cruel the changes would be for mainland enterprises.
When millions of people are laid off, an explanation must be given. Is “selecting the best” a good reason?

After checking, we found out that the source of this statement was actually a branch factory.

Is this the one who sticks out? This is a life-and-death enemy!

By then, it will not only be the laid-off workers whose interests will be damaged, but also many big bosses, who may take out their anger on Li Ye and the first branch factory.

【I need to borrow your head for a while. 】

So no matter what, Li Ye didn't want a branch factory to attract too many people's attention, and he didn't want to be targeted by a group of sharks.

"Li Ye, have you ever thought about this? This country is in the midst of a fierce transformation. If you don't grab this coordination today, someone else will. The benefits to the first person to try it out will be unimaginable."

Yue Mengmeng didn’t understand Li Ye’s thoughts at all. She thought that how could Li Ye refuse such a good thing?
But Li Ye smiled and replied: "I don't like eating crabs! The shells are too hard and it's easy to prick your mouth."

Yue Mengmeng showed an incredible expression: "Do you eat the shell when you eat crabs?"

Li Ye smiled faintly: "Can you tell which is the shell and which is the meat?"

Yue Mengmeng: “.”

[Can you tell the difference between a flag bearer and a chess piece? ]
