1988: Back to the human world for a few years

Chapter 467 New Rich
Teachers who have worked in various urban investment companies in later generations should know that although working in such special units, it is not only difficult for grassroots employees to get formal positions, but they also have to run to the project sites all day long and often have to suffer from both sides, which can be said to be a miserable group. However, the company's management has a lot of say and social influence... You have to know that although they are collectively referred to as "urban investment", the actual business scope of these companies is far more than just urban infrastructure, and the disposal rights of many planned projects are very attractive.

Even those "successors" in later generations who were actually established to respond to the new budget law and whose powers were repeatedly reduced over time are like this, let alone the first batch of municipal investment companies that emerged in this era?
What's more, DZ City Urban Infrastructure and Industrial Upgrading Fund Co., Ltd. also has the functional characteristics of a "big fund", and it follows the model of the first phase of the big fund?
It can be said that if the municipal investment companies of later generations can be regarded as the "second finance" of the local area, then in 1990, when DZ City was about to be upgraded to a prefecture-level city and designated as a pilot city for the tax-sharing system, this newly established fund company was the "housekeeper" of Texas... and a housekeeper like the housewife of an island country.

Of course, for most people today, it is obviously not clear how terrifying the "municipal investment + big fund" model is.

But this did not prevent Yang Mo, a young man who was already extremely valued, from soaring in everyone's eyes.

Are you kidding? Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the reason why DZ City was so determined to use up all its own capital and also got so many leading state-owned enterprises to jointly establish this experimental fund company was to keep this young man in Texas...Forget about Qi and Lu, looking across the country, you can find two more talents like this who can be valued by local authorities!
So it was not surprising that even though this fund company was still in the process of preparation and establishment, and had even just signed the "DZ City Urban Infrastructure and Industrial Upgrading Fund Co., Ltd. Promoter Agreement", people who came to visit Yang Mo for various reasons almost broke down the threshold.

………………

"President Liu, please take care. I will definitely visit your office for tea someday if I have the chance!"

Yang Mo smiled as he escorted a middle-aged balding man out of the office. Then, as the man was flattered and declined, he stopped and watched him leave.

"Master, there are 23 more visitors today, but there is nothing special to note about the rest. They are all heads of ordinary large and medium-sized enterprises and some "representatives" from other places, so... the next one is Director Shi of the Third Cotton Mill. Do you want to meet him?"

The young apprentice's tone and expression were somewhat complicated, showing admiration and amazement, as well as a hint of displeasure.

The reason for astonishment is that every one of these people who came to visit were prominent figures, including some of the heads of large and medium-sized enterprises... Although the scale of their corporate assets is far from comparable to that of Dahua Company, the size of their employees and their social influence should not be underestimated.

If an enterprise of this scale and its person in charge were in Tongren, his father would probably be extremely fond of it, and would even come to bother him every few days to see if he could squeeze out a few more employment quotas and contribute to the local poverty alleviation work. But with his own master, he can only wait in line and sit on the bench obediently, and the master even wants to force imported cosmetics on himself in the hope that he can say a few words and meet Yang Mo... Although both of them have the word "father", the gap between them is obvious, which makes Bai Mengmeng admire his own master even more.

But so many important figures came to visit Yang Mo, which certainly made her, the little disciple, feel honored, but after the excitement, all that was left was trouble.

The senior executives within Dahua Company also have a lot of work to report to their masters. As a little assistant... um, no, now I'm a secretary. I, as a little secretary, also have a lot of work to ask for instructions and approval from my master. How can I carry out my work if I'm busy with favors all day long?

Seeing his apprentice's slightly pouting mouth, Yang Mo smiled and said, "The people behind us disappeared today. For a company like the Third Cotton Mill to visit us, it's easy to imagine that they want to ask for some convenience. They want to get some support funds and resources after the new fund company is established... I have my own plan for this. We can discuss it in a meeting when the time comes. It would be bad to meet too early."

At this point, Yang Mo took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, tilting his head to look at his apprentice: "Is there anything important in the company today that needs to be reported to me?"

Hearing the words "special report", the little apprentice pouted again.

My master is getting lazier and lazier now. He just approves instructions or sets a few targets and then throws the responsibility to other people. I just sit in the office and drink tea, letting the company's executives who dare not resist at all pull my hair out, and then rush to complete all kinds of inhumane requirements and targets... Unless the matter is important enough to require a special report to him, you can forget about seeing him.

Under such circumstances, naturally, as a secretary, she would not have any free time at all, and her life would even be more miserable than when she was an assistant... With the increase of authority, all documents below the "confidential" level would have to be reviewed by her first, and then she would write down her proposed handling opinions after careful consideration. After they were sorted into piles according to importance and urgency, they would be handed over to her master for review. There were many documents that required original data from other departments, and she even had to go to the case site to understand the situation in person before she could write proposed handling opinions.

I'm only twenty-one years old. When will this miserable life of only being able to sleep four or five hours a day end?

I haven’t been in a relationship yet. If I continue like this, I’ll age prematurely!
However, despite her complaints, she also knew that her master's current situation no longer allowed him to personally check everything like before, so when she heard Yang Mo ask this, she immediately flipped through today's to-do list and took a look, then replied: "So far today, only Minister Zhuo has applied to make a special report to you, Master;"

"As the cadre accountability system and process tracking responsibility system began to be officially implemented in the tertiary industry units under Dahua Company, Minister Du, who was in charge of the relevant work, encountered great resistance and even caused a lot of trouble. In the past two days, the reform work steering group headed by Minister Du has been working non-stop to deal with various emergencies, but the results have not been very good. However, he did not dare to ask you for guidance when he encountered a small setback, so he simply found the Legal and Compliance Department and wanted to seek some support from Minister Zhuo... Look, as soon as he received the request for help, Minister Zhuo wanted to ask you for instructions?"

In Dahua Company, which was established less than a year ago, the only executives who have really made some decent achievements, apart from Yang Mo, are Miss Mu, Zhuo Mali, Zhang Bo (the business demonstration center project investment promotion assistant), and Lin Luosu. Even Song Wenxuan is not on the list because the hotel chain project has begun to fall into a series of quagmires and the short-term operation of gold futures has not yet been completed.

Among these people, apart from Miss Mu who is still based in Tokyo, Zhuo Mali, the "unprofessional" director of the Legal and Compliance Department, has the most outstanding achievements... After all, it is not something that ordinary people can do to turn an old industrial area in northwest Shandong with no sense of existence into a popular city in the country in just two or three months. Moreover, she has made a great contribution to Pinhai's overseas expansion this time. Therefore, in today's Dahua Company, Zhuo Mali's comprehensive ability is still very recognized.

In addition, unlike Yang Mo, who was extremely difficult to deal with, 28-year-old Zhuo Mali was not only from the Dongying family, but also had friends all over the world, so naturally she was definitely not bad in dealing with people. Therefore, it was not difficult to understand that when Du Chuanming, who was feeling overwhelmed and a little overwhelmed by Yang Mo's tasks, sought help from Zhuo Mali.

"Oh? Minister Zhuo is the only one who wants to give me a special report today?"

Yang Mo was a little overwhelmed.

Although the reform of the internal management system of an enterprise has always been a headache, and managers have always been treading on thin ice in this regard, those tertiary industry units are not strictly state-owned enterprises after all, and Zhuo Mali is not an indecisive person. Therefore, he did not believe that this old woman would come to make a special report to him for such a matter.

Obviously, this peach probably just wants to show up in front of him to strengthen her presence, and see if she can find any projects and opportunities from him that can make her shine.

Tsk tsk, when it comes to initiative and omnipresence in scheming, this woman is probably unique among the people I have ever met in these two lifetimes.

But there is no way. Every game has its own rules. Since they are following the formal procedures and using the name of "assisting in promoting the deepening reform of the internal management system of tertiary industry units", which cannot be more legitimate, you have no reason to reject their special report.

"Okay, go inform Minister Zhuo and ask her to come to my office to report... I have a lot of things to do here, so I can only spare 20 minutes."

Yang Mo stretched, gave the order somewhat helplessly, and then bit the word "20 minutes" a little too hard.

The young disciple, who was not very fond of his own legitimate master's wife and also did not like the old woman Zhuo Mali, immediately became cheerful after hearing this: "Okay, I will inform Minister Mu right away!"

………………

Knock knock~
Following two gentle knocks on the door, Zhuo Mali, wearing a thin windbreaker on the outside and a light gray work suit on the inside, walked in quickly.

"Boss Yang, so far, Shunshang Food has had two organized protests by its employees. Hongxing Hardware Factory and Deying Garment Factory have also had small-scale strikes and shutdowns. Xingliao Toy Factory and Wucheng Xinxin Plastic Mold Factory have even sealed their doors and refused to allow the guidance team to enter...Boss Yang, the progress of the management system reform in the tertiary industry units is not optimistic!"

Different from her cheerful and cheerful self in private, Zhuo Mali displayed a temperament that matched her position as the director of the Legal and Compliance Department during working hours. Not only did she not call "sister" or "brother" randomly, but the expression on her face was completely devoid of that familiar charm, but rather serious and scary.

Seeing this peach with an attitude that looked like "the sky is going to fall down in the next second", Yang Mo couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

Although Shunshang Food and Deying Garment Factory are two of the relatively important product manufacturers in the commercial demonstration area;

Xingliao Toy Factory and Wucheng Xinxin Plastic Mould Factory are directly related to the production capacity of some Panpan plush toys. They can be regarded as relatively important tertiary production units under Dahua Company. If these units start to make trouble, it will indeed cause considerable trouble to the company.

but……

Do you want to put on such an exaggerated expression?

If in a few years, Dahua Company sets up a "Jing" Department in the publicity department, you will definitely be the best candidate for the director!
After finally suppressing the urge to roll his eyes, Yang Mo's expression perfectly matched the tone of a general manager. He smiled gently and poured a cup of tea for Zhuo Mali. "Minister Zhuo, since you asked me to make a report today, you must have a solution... Tell me about it?"

Seeing Yang Mo's calm expression, Zhuo Mali pretended to be flattered, stood up and took the tea handed over by Yang Mo, then suddenly smiled, and the seriousness on her face disappeared: "Promoting the management reform of the subordinate tertiary industry units is the first major move after you took office, Mr. Yang. As your subordinates, how dare Minister Du and I not work hard?"

"Right now, various units have encountered some problems one after another. If you want to talk about response plans, then of course I have come up with a few plans. But as to which approach to take, I need to ask you, Mr. Yang, for your instructions."

Yang Mo immediately became interested: "Oh? You came up with more than one solution in just one night? Tell me about it."

Zhuo Mali smiled and took a sip of the teacup: "Actually, these solutions are simple."

"Since I am the head of the Legal and Compliance Department, but not a member of the Reform Steering Group, the first response plan is naturally to prioritize my job, that is, the legal aspect."

“Everyone knows why the tertiary production units below are so opposed to the leadership accountability system and the process accountability system. Whether it is stopping production or blocking the door to prevent people from entering, there is no need to investigate who is behind the instigation... Even the employee representatives who ran to the headquarters to protest, whether they represent the real grassroots employees, can be guessed with eyes closed.”

At this point, Zhuo Mali's expression was somewhat sarcastic: "Now that we know who is behind these weird things, it will be easy to deal with them."

"Even primary school students who have just learned to read know what kind of morals these managers of the tertiary industry units below are. With their morals, if they can keep their bottoms clean, I will write the word Zhuo backwards from now on!"

"It just so happens that Minister Mu has already successfully built the internal control improvement framework two months ago. The Risk Control Department, Finance Department, and Shared Accounting Center have checked most of the accounts. I believe that under the guidance of the off-site data audit led by the Risk Control Department, the Finance Department and Shared Accounting Center should have obtained a lot of evidence."

Zhuo Mali pursed her plump lips, and a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes: "Since we have a direction, no matter whether the chain of evidence is sufficient or not, we don't even need to alert the Supervisory Board and the Audit Center. Let's directly mobilize those grassroots employees to submit a few letters of complaint in the name of infringement of state-owned assets, and then we will take direct action to control those blind guys!
"Infringement of state-owned assets is a serious crime. Its nature is far worse than that of ordinary economic cases and official corruption. Once reported, according to the procedure, the Discipline Inspection Section and our legal department should intervene directly. Even if the Supervisory Board and the Audit Center want to make a big deal out of a small matter, they can only watch from the side with wide eyes!" "Haha, these days, if you want to open a window to get some fresh air in a nice way, you may be righteously opposed by countless people; but if you act as if you want to poke a big hole in the roof, then they will enthusiastically help you open the window... As long as we deal with a few big rats quickly, strictly and severely, I believe the rest of the people will be much more sensible, and the advancement of management system reform will surely not have so many twists and turns!"

Yang Mo naturally knew that the "other people" she mentioned did not only refer to the management of those tertiary industry units. In fact, it was definitely not the courage that those management should have to jump out and cause trouble when Yang Mo was just starting his job.

Enough!

So poisonous!

So domineering!
I like!
Yang Mo really admired the decisive and ruthless style of this peach. He was not the old-fashioned person who kept shouting about the need to maintain unity. There were only a few hundred clerks and section-level employees from the Dongying Department. Even if they were all sent in to eat peanuts, he would not even blink an eye.

Seeing Yang Mo's admiration, Zhuo Mali was delighted, but then showed hesitation: "Although this first plan is quick and effective, it has a difficulty."

Yang Mo glanced at her, knowing exactly what she was hinting at, but still showed a hint of dissatisfaction and consolation as Wang Yinuo had instructed: "Minister Zhuo, are you worried that the Board of Supervisors will accuse you of disregarding the overall situation and damaging the company's image? Don't be afraid, I think this plan is very good... Just go ahead and do it. If the Board of Supervisors has any objections, let them come to talk to me!"

Hearing Yang Mo's domineering answer, Zhuo Mali was a little amused and shook her head: "Boss Yang, I'm not worried about the Supervisory Board, but..."

After hesitating for a while, Zhuo Mali's expression was a little strange: "I am a little worried. Will this disrupt Minister Mu's plan? After all, she is the one who led the internal control adjustment work, and she also initiated the establishment of the shared accounting center. The off-site data audit work of the risk control department is also ongoing... If Minister Mu wanted to take action against those rats, he could have done it a long time ago."

Sure enough, she is a woman who is good at business!

Selling well can be done so openly.

Also, I'm afraid you are planning to see if you can get some information out of me?
Are you so eager to get the chance to perform from me?
Yang Mo was a little confused by this woman who did not hide her ambitions at all. He pondered for a moment and nodded without comment: "Yes, Minister Mu also has his own plans in this regard. It would not be good to alert the enemy... Since Minister Zhuo said this is the first set of response plans, there must be two if there is one. What about other plans? Tell me about them?"

Zhuo Mali was slightly disappointed when she saw Yang Mo's tight-lipped look, but she quickly cheered up and smiled more brightly: "The second plan is actually not difficult, it's just a little more troublesome... But I believe that Mr. Yang should be more satisfied with the second plan."

Yang Mo was surprised and encouraged: "Oh? Minister Zhuo is very confident. Now I am really curious about your second plan."

Zhuo Mali looked at the young man's immature acting skills in silence, and sighed tiredly. She finally gave up the idea of ​​persuading the boss and forced herself to cheer up: "Boss Yang, in fact, this second plan is also closely related to you... It is precisely because of this that this plan, although it sounds a bit far-fetched, is also very convincing."

Oh?
Related to me?

Yang Mo was really curious now. He thought about it for a moment and said, "Tell me about it?"

Although Yang Mo suddenly lost some of his courtesy at this moment, Zhuo Mali became happy. After a few chuckles, she changed her tone and said, "Boss Yang, do you still remember the internally incubated self-raised project a few months ago, the edible rose planting project? How did it work at the time?"

What about the 3,000-acre edible rose planting project?
Self-raised?

Could it be that what this woman meant was... ?
Yang Mo finally took a serious look at the woman in front of him, whose charm could not be concealed even in her formal professional attire. There was less of the previous perfunctory and indifference in his eyes, and they were full of scrutiny.

Facing Yang Mo's slightly sharp eyes, Zhuo Mali straightened her chest confidently. There was no trace of charm on her face, but instead, she looked calm and determined.

………………

Many things actually don’t need to be explained so thoroughly.

So in just five minutes, Zhuomali, who had received tacit approval and instruction from Yang Mo, returned to her old ways and resumed her relaxed state in which she could not distinguish between public and private matters.

It was obvious that since Yang Mo had promised her 20 minutes to report, even if it took a while, this peach would make sure to make it through those 20 minutes.

I looked at the clock on the wall.

10:47, three minutes left before the deadline.

Looking at Zhuo Mali, whose bones were beginning to loosen, Yang Mo's mouth twitched, but he did not say anything to chase her away.

"By the way, Mr. Yang, I'm a little curious. Why did you take nearly half an hour to meet with President Liu today? This is not in line with your style!"

Zhuo Mali was a person who knew how to seize opportunities. After Yang Mo's second plan was proposed, her approval of herself increased visibly. Taking advantage of the last three minutes of the fight, she asked her own questions.

President Liu is not the president of a policy bank such as Texas Development Bank, but the president of a local city credit cooperative.

Although in later generations, the main persons in charge of such commercial banks were rare big shots, but in the current era when the banking system has not yet become independent from the local level, their weight is far less important... Not only is their weight far less than in later generations, the situation of the local banking system at this time is like a young wife who is bullied from both sides, and has a mouthful of bitterness when she meets everyone.

Therefore, even though a certain bald middle-aged man has the word "President" in his title, his actual position in the local administrative system is not even as high as that of the head of the water conservancy department.

So Zhuo Mali was very puzzled. With Yang Mo's current unrivaled status and his utilitarian interpersonal communication style, why would he ignore a large number of business leaders and white gloves who were more valuable for cooperation, and instead spend a full half hour to meet with President Liu, and even personally escorted him out the door?

Perhaps because of his increased recognition and acceptance of Zhuo Mali, Yang Mo did not intend to keep everything secret from this woman who did not hide her desire to be his vanguard. He just smiled and said, "The reason is very simple. The rules and framework of the new fund company are set by the organization. All fund operations cannot bypass the DZ City Development Bank as the custodian bank. The destination and use of each fund also need to be reported to the higher authorities. This is too troublesome."

“So… I personally think that in the future, the model of having municipal investment/large funds on the left hand and local commercial banks on the right hand will actually be more conducive to the development of some work.”

Municipal investment?

Big Fund?
What is this and what?
Zhuo Mali was completely confused. She didn't even know what these two terms stood for, let alone what the mystery was about this mainstream operation that gradually evolved in later generations.

Just when she wanted to ask more, she saw Yang Mo's expression turned serious: "Minister Zhuo, the 20-minute report time is up, and I still have work to deal with... You should also quickly follow the instructions and get down to business with Minister Du!"

Zhuo Mali: “…”

Glancing at the clock on the wall;

10:50.
Zhuo Mali was depressed to death. It was terrible that these few words, which were just like a dragonfly touching the water, made her feel that she only knew the facts but not the reasons.

Feeling that her teeth were about to crack, a certain peach's chest heaved twice, but under the pressure of Yang Mo's power, even though she was unwilling, she could only stand up and say goodbye.

After taking two steps, Zhuo Mali seemed to remember something and stopped, then turned around and asked, "By the way, Mr. Yang, in order to smoothly implement the subsequent plan, I plan to invite Manager Lu as a special consultant to the internal management reform steering group to assist and guide me and Minister Du to advance the work... She was involved in the incubation of the edible rose planting base project. She is more experienced in some things. What do you think?"

Let classmate Tugou participate in this matter?

Yang Mo frowned: "Manager Lu has gone to the grassroots to promote the start-up of the chain drugstores, and he won't be back for a while."

Zhuo Mali laughed, "Boss Yang, I have been in touch with Manager Lu. I asked her yesterday and she will be back in three days... Not only is she very interested in this, but she will be back in time in three days."

Have you told her about this?
Yang Mo raised his eyebrows, a hint of inexplicable displeasure flashed in his eyes, and he just stared at Zhuo Mali quietly.

It was not until Zhuo Mali was stared at with a chill down her spine and a small patch of wetness on her back that Yang Mo said calmly, "Since Manager Lu has already agreed to your request, let's do this... This won't happen again!"

Zhuo Mali was frightened by these words, and after a long while she managed to force out a smile with some difficulty: "Okay, Mr. Yang... I understand!"
