The world begins with Hong Kong movies

Chapter 613 The Rich Dog! (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

July arrived in the blink of an eye, and the blazing sun in the sky became even more dazzling.

Wu Aiguo couldn't stand the weather!
I get up early every morning to exercise, and soon I'm drenched in sweat, almost like I've been pulled out of the water.

After breakfast, I took a walk around the factory area and was covered in sweat again.

In the entire factory area, only the bustling workshops had large blocks of ice and electric fans for cooling, so he couldn't very well go there often to enjoy the cool breeze.

Well, after his suggestion, his father, Wu Zhi, discussed it with the factory leaders and they did indeed plan to start a small electric fan factory.

For now, we can only make preparations, getting the factory and machinery ready, and start production in late spring next year.

Wu Aiguo found the sweltering heat unbearable, and the factory leaders, who were mostly middle-aged or older, felt it was even more unbearable.

The chilled mung bean soup and ice water provided by the cold storage are practically standard fare in the office.

The leaders of this era are still quite simple in their conduct.

They only received a slightly larger share than ordinary workers in this area, and they only dared to enjoy it secretly.

Only the Party Secretary was like someone on steroids, spending every day after finishing his work at the factory, rain or shine, glued to the construction site of the third phase of the apartment-style dormitory.

His subordinates, including several errand runners, were also working up a great deal of energy.

Those who don't know the situation might think that the Party Secretary is particularly concerned about the quality of the apartment-style dormitories and is thinking about the workers who will soon be assigned to them.

The truth is obvious to everyone!

However, after taking office, the secretary did make some minor moves, but none of them were offensive.

He was quite effective at enforcing discipline and managing logistics, so the workers were very accommodating and respectful.

At least, they didn't say anything unpleasant or strange.

As for the factory leaders, they simply pretended that the matter did not exist.

Of course, if the Party Secretary could use the opportunity of being allocated apartment-style dormitories to advance his career, they could certainly follow suit.

Factory director Wu Zhi, however, remained indifferent to the situation.

The secretary will experience all the gossip and rumors he's endured before; it's just a matter of whether he can withstand it.

In fact, with Wu Aiguo helping to oversee the factory, he only needed to focus most of his energy on production and research and development.

As long as he achieves tangible results, no matter what the external situation is, Wu Zhi will always be the pillar of Gulou Repair Shop.

According to a leader from a higher-level industrial department who was drunk, if it weren't for the short time, Wu Zhi's achievements would have allowed him to advance even further.

This is no joke!

At this time, the size of the Gulou Repair Shop was no less than that of medium-sized machinery factories or steel mills.

In terms of revenue, it is a leader in the industrial system.

At the bicycle factory, both mountain bikes and couple bikes sell well overseas.

Orders of thousands of vehicles per month would make other units in the industrial system green with envy.

In particular, when Mr. Huo informed him that the European and American version of "Flipped," directed by the French director and his team, had finished filming and would be released around August, it was definitely a shot in the arm.

As long as the movie is successful, even if it's just a minor hit.

With Huo Daheng's connections in the mountain bike industry, selling the couple's version of the bicycle shouldn't be difficult; the only question is how many units will be sold.

Not only the bicycle factory, but also the higher-level industrial departments are paying close attention to this matter. As I said before, the country is currently short of foreign exchange!

With things having progressed to this point, it's clear that the bicycle factory has completely stabilized.

Wu Aiguo was also generous, and successively developed sports bicycles, commuter bicycles, and freight bicycles.

By this time, prototypes of these bicycles had been manufactured and passed the internal inspection of the repair shop.

However, following Wu Aiguo's suggestion, these bicycles will be gradually introduced to the market, rather than being pushed all at once to Huo Daheng in Hong Kong.

Wu Aiguo not only created simple types of bicycles, but also gradually developed various uniquely shaped or very beautiful bicycles for later generations.

Of course, he had no intention of keeping it all to himself.

Instead, the reward was issued through the factory management and the technical department.

Any worker or other factory employee who has their own ideas and suggestions about bicycles can participate by writing a letter or visiting in person.

If a design is selected by the factory, it will receive a reward that will make others envious.

Wu Aiguo, of course, did not set limits for himself; he was also one of the participants.

Everyone knows his contributions, but Wu Aiguo's age is a factor.

They weren't even accepted into the organization, let alone given a significant promotion.

He was eligible to be recognized as an advanced worker or a model worker, but he was not very willing to do so.

When questioned by his superiors, he made it very clear: "With my work style, if I were selected as a model worker, I'm afraid the workers would be dissatisfied!"

"As for the selection of advanced workers, we need to make it clear what exactly constitutes their excellence, otherwise it will easily arouse the resentment of the workers!"

It's important to understand that in this era, there were real benefits to being recognized as an advanced worker or a model worker in factories.

Putting aside the factory's rewards, whenever there's an opportunity to "work as a substitute for a manager," those with this experience will be given priority for promotion.

To put it simply, Wu Aiguo had no intention of competing with the frontline workers for this honor.

To be honest, for frontline workers, unless they can become a level 7 or 8 worker, the upward mobility is quite limited.

Let's raise more money through legitimate technical bounties.

So much time has passed, and it's no secret within the repair shop that Wu Aiguo often prepares special medicinal meals for himself.

He also needs to find a reason to make money, otherwise who knows if he might be reported for no reason.

Believe it or not, Wu Aiguo was indeed reported several times.

Some reports even reached the leaders of higher-level industrial departments.

If Wu Aiguo hadn't had legitimate sources of funds for purchasing various Chinese medicines and chickens and ducks, he would have suffered a heavy loss in this matter.

Now, thanks to the technical reward, everyone in the factory knows he's a real big spender, but they can't bring themselves to resent him.

Suddenly, there were many more matchmakers coming to our door!

Originally, Wu Aiguo was from the Gulou area, an absolute hot commodity in the marriage market, comparable to a diamond bachelor.

He is young, has no bad habits, and is already a leading cadre at the level of section chief, enjoying the treatment of deputy division chief.

He also has his own single dormitory and doesn't live with his parents. The key is that he's rich, tall, and handsome. You can't find a partner like that anywhere else!
