Chapter 1127 An Opportunity for Advancement
Lai Jiayi walked around the main factory for most of the day before returning to the office with a heavy heart to report to Niu Hongzhang.

"Everyone does have some complaints, especially those from Warehouse 1 and the Infrastructure Department, but there are also some people..."

Lai Jiayi paused, then said sadly: "Many people also expressed their aspirations. They hope to be able to get a salary of three or four hundred per month like the first branch factory."

Niu Hongzhang's face was gloomy, and he said dryly, "They hope to get 300-400 yuan a month? Now everyone in the first branch is paid 300-400 yuan?"

Lai Jiayi shook her head slowly.

In fact, Lai Jiayi knew that Niu Hongzhang must have understood the wage distribution model of the first branch, but he still asked at this time, obviously wanting to "find some loopholes."

Flaws in the rebuttal.

Lai Jiayi exhaled and said, "No, I don't make 300, and neither does Li Ye. Basically no one in the office can make 300, unless they are rated as advanced employees at the end of the year and receive advanced bonuses."

Niu Hongzhang immediately asked, "How are advanced workers evaluated? Have you ever been selected? Has Li Ye ever been selected?"

Lai Jiayi pouted: "No, I have never been selected. Li Ye was selected once."

Speaking of this, Lai Jiayi felt a little aggrieved.

She has been working in the branch factory for more than two years, but has never been named an advanced worker, not even once. Yet Li Ye, who always claims that he "doesn't care about money," was named an advanced worker once!

Of course, Li Ye originally did not want to participate in the evaluation that time, but the entire factory staff strongly opposed it. Finally, Li Ye was included in the evaluation list and was elected unanimously.

So Lai Jiayi felt aggrieved, but she could only keep it to herself.

Lu Zhizhang is the boss of a branch factory, and he has never been promoted. Why do you have the right to speak up?
But Niu Hongzhang shouted in a deep voice: "Isn't this still unfair distribution? Everyone has a different division of labor and a different nature of work. How can you deliberately reduce the labor remuneration of some people? You must pay attention to this issue."

"."

Lai Jiayi stared at Niu Hongzhang blankly, and a certain "iron-clad" impression in her heart was slowly collapsing and dissipating.

When Niu Hongzhang first came to the Light Automobile Company, he completely fit the positive image that had been promoted for many years. He rode a bicycle to work and enforced attendance discipline in the workshop. He set an example with his uprightness and was admired by everyone.

But less than a year later, Lai Jiayi became increasingly uncomfortable with Niu Hongzhang's style.

[Have I been corrupted by the style of the first branch? ]

A qualified big brother, in addition to having personal charm, must also be able to take good care of his younger brothers, lead everyone to eat big bowls of meat and drink big bowls of wine, rush to the front when fighting for territory, and have extremely high fighting power.

You make everyone eat steamed bread and pickles every day. No matter how strong your personal charm is, I feel miserable!

And this is not the worst big brother. The worst big brother is the one whose younger brothers eat steamed bread and pickles, sausages and beer, and sit in the center when the battle starts, with his younger brothers blocking the way in front and behind.

Niu Hongzhang is not the worst big brother, but he is not qualified either.

Just like what Niu Hongzhang said now, let Lai Jiayi "take the problem seriously", but how should she take it seriously?
Isn't it just that he wants me to be the one who steps forward to "give suggestions", and then he can take the opportunity to discuss it in the meeting?
The question is, what benefits can I get after the discussion? Can I drink a lot of wine and eat a lot of meat?

In fact, when Lai Jiayi just gave her report, she had already started to doubt herself.

Last month, Lai Jiayi, following Niu Hongzhang's instructions, connected a large group of people including Lao Wan, Lao Yang, Lao Cheng, etc., and successfully voted through the decision to merge the sales department at the meeting. At that time, Lai Jiayi felt that the luxury of food and wine was already right under her nose.

But just now when Lai Jiayi went to inquire about the situation with Lao Yang and others, she only talked about "family property" and did not complain, nor did she reveal any intention of collusion. She could clearly feel that everyone was resisting her.

This feeling is completely different from two months ago.

Lai Jiayi suddenly realized that she, a thriving fence-sitter, was becoming a nobody on both sides.

In the past, they were a united community of interests, trying to fight against the local tyrants and divide the land, and let a branch factory distribute a part of the profits to everyone according to the rules.

But now the first branch seems to be using another method to gradually benefit everyone.

It has to be said that Ma Zhaoxian and Niu Hongzhang are not of the same type. They are neither lukewarm nor impatient, and unknowingly, they have tamed Lao Yang, Lao Cheng and others.

The result of this domestication made Lai Jiayi very worried. When she first arrived at the first branch factory, she was not used to it in various ways, but now, if she didn't think that Li Ye would block her room for advancement, she would really be willing to live a stable life in the first branch factory.

It's so comfortable and gives so much.

Just now when Lao Cheng was chatting with Lai Jiayi, he expressed his yearning for the kind of life Lai Jiayi has.

[Old Cheng and his people may also be slowly corrupted by the style of the first branch factory! ]

"Xiao Lai, did you hear what I just said?"

"."

"Ah? Oh, I'm listening!"

Lai Jiayi hurriedly said: "I will go back and prepare, collect some opinions from the masses, and then write it up."

Niu Hongzhang narrowed his eyes, nodded and said: "Your idea is correct. We must listen to the opinions of the masses and cannot let a small group of people suppress the opinions of the masses."

"."

Niu Hongzhang must have noticed Lai Jiayi's hesitation, so he began to encourage Lai Jiayi again. However, Lai Jiayi is not a young person in her early twenties. She has been hearing such words for more than 20 years. How could she be encouraged?
She was very annoyed and wanted to leave early, but because of Niu Hongzhang's "remaining power", she could only endure it, smile, and nod continuously.

Just when Lai Jiayi was in great agony, the phone on Niu Hongzhang's desk suddenly rang.

"Dingling bell~"

Niu Hongzhang stopped preaching, drank a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and then answered the phone: "Hello, where are you?"

"Is Li Ye at work today? We want to go over and talk to him."

"."

"Yes, yes. I just saw him sweeping the snow."

"Please inform him that we will arrive at two o'clock in the afternoon."

"Okay okay."

After hanging up the phone, Niu Hongzhang's mood suddenly became cheerful, and even the wrinkles on his forehead seemed to have been smoothed out.

The biggest difficulty facing the Light Automobile Company is the troublemaker Li Ye. If we get rid of him quickly, everything will be easy.

Anyway, the two production lines of the first branch have all started operation and are running well. No matter who takes over, it will not affect the profit.

If you have money, especially if you have money in your own hands, what problems can’t be solved? What people can’t be dealt with?

Lai Jiayi was also very surprised to see that Niu Hongzhang had suddenly changed like an old tree coming back to life. She really wanted to ask Niu Hongzhang what had happened, but she knew that she shouldn't say too much at this moment.

However, Niu Hongzhang looked at Lai Jiayi and suddenly smiled and said, "Xiao Lai, you have been in the first branch for a long time. Do you think if you give Li Ye a chance to improve now, will he accept it?"

"."

Lai Jiayi was stunned for a moment before hesitantly asking, "What kind of progress?"

The word "progress" has a lot to say. Praising you to the sky and letting you enjoy happiness is progress; trampling you into the mud and grinding you is also progress.

Niu Hongzhang gave Li Ye an opportunity to make progress, hehe, but I'm afraid he's stepping into a stinky ditch and raising fish, right?

But Niu Hongzhang said calmly: "I heard that the deputy director in charge of operations at Beifeng Machinery Factory has been transferred. I don't know if the rumor is true."

Lai Jiayi: “.”
