Southern suburbs of Zhu City, Nanhu Province, winter
The icy wind blowing from Siberia effortlessly passed through the gate of Zhengxing Electric Vehicle Factory and entered this large factory that had been suspended for many days, scraping away the heat from people like a knife.
Li Xiuwen wrapped his blue down jacket, rubbed his cold and white hands, looked at the factory manager Tang in the crowd, and sighed: The half-year internship only received three months' salary, and the year-end bonus There is no shadow, the blood loss is in the end.
As a senior student in the Department of Mechanical Engineering of a second-rate university, the internship is very difficult to find, and the big companies with good pay do not accept it, so they have to invest in a small factory, and they encounter the legendary wage arrears.
Li Xiuwen secretly regretted that his grades in the college entrance examination were relatively poor, and he was transferred to a major in mechanical manufacturing. Near graduation, I encountered the big hole in the manufacturing recession, and I couldn't climb out.
"Let me tell you that the factory officially closed down today and went bankrupt! You forced me to have no money, really no money."
Factory Manager Tang was surrounded by the workers, feeling a little flustered, a bunch of beads of sweat appeared on his fat forehead, and his thick cheeks kept shaking.
In the past two years, the real economy has become more and more sluggish, especially in the electric vehicle industry without too much technical content. The market concentration has continued to increase, and small factories have closed down in batches.
Small factories like Zhengxing Electric Vehicle Factory have no strength to compete with big brands such as Emma and Yadi, and even the local market cannot be maintained. After a long time, there was no turning point, and one foot entered the bankruptcy liquidation.
Li Xiuwen looked at the head of the factory manager Tang, with some sympathy in his heart. The factory closed down and lost money.
However, other workers are not like him as an intern. The pressure to support their families makes them pay more attention to wages. They waved their fists one by one and looked like they were about to fall on the director Tang.
"We have to pay wages to us if we go bankrupt, when we don't understand the labor law?"
"Yes, yes. Don't even think about leaving here without paying."
The workers were stern and reluctant, and the whole plant was full of voices asking for pay.
Manager Tang felt very tight in his chest, and he wished to yell at the workers: You just haven't got your salary for a few months, and the factory with an investment of 3 million has closed down!
It's just that he knows that this is not true. If it ignites the resentment of the workers, he might suffer a bloody disaster.
Seeing the workers getting more and more restless, or rolling up their sleeves, or starting to look for steel pipes and wrenches from the ground, violent conflict is about to take place.
Director Tang pulled his throat and shouted with all his strength: "Don't do it, speak well. Besides, I have already called the police! They will be coming in a few minutes."
"Also, why are you so impatient? There are still some machine tools in the factory. If you divide them, they will be regarded as wages. This is a serious production machine, and it is valuable."
With the machine to offset wages, most workers' emotions gradually calmed down. If they were not forced to do so, they did not want to do it. The police's deterrence was still great.
A few workers are not satisfied with this decision. The machines at Zhengxing Electric Vehicle Factory are not advanced. They are all second-hand goods eliminated by some major factories. They are clumsy and old, and are not worth much.
Besides, it is difficult to find buyers for these outdated machines and it is difficult to realize them.
"No, I don't want these rags! Selling scrap iron can't buy a lot of money, you have to give cash!"
"Yes, as long as cash, don't break the copper and iron."
It's just that the number of them is small, they are no longer a climate, and their momentum is much smaller than before.
Director Tang was not in a hurry, took out a paper towel and wiped the sweat from his forehead, his expression relaxed, and he felt that the storm of asking for wages had settled.
"Anyway, there are only these machines, it depends on whether you want them."
"You have to think clearly, do you take the money and leave, or you beat me into the cell?"
After Director Tang finished speaking,
It looks like a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water. It is very ugly, but most of the workers are settled down. "Forget it, if you sell these broken machines, you should be able to get back three months of salary."
"Yes, I won't get a salary."
Li Xiuwen watched the whole process of Factory Manager Tang persuading the workers, and finally convinced him. No wonder he was able to become a business owner. His ability to resolve the crisis was really strong.
Of course, Director Tang's heart was dark enough to forcibly squeeze an old machine that was difficult to remove into the hands of the workers. This not only solved the turmoil but also made a small profit.
Li Xiuwen secretly noted that he felt that the courage of Director Tang was worth learning, and at least he would not be deceived by understanding more.
"Hey, Li Xiuwen, why don't you choose the machine?"
"One step later is likely to have only the least advanced machine, these workers will not let go of any extra dollar."
The factory manager Tang was named Tang Heshuo, with sparse hair on top of his head, with a big belly, a typical middle-aged greasy man.
Perhaps it was because the crisis was resolved, and I was in a good mood. I was a little curious to see Li Xiuwen standing still.
"It's okay to wait a while, anyway, the machine that is divided up will not sell much."
Li Xiuwen stared at Tang Heshuo, his heart moved, and said, "Or the factory manager will find out that the money is given to me directly. I only need half of the three-month salary."
"No, no, everyone has to be treated the same, you should wait slowly."
Tang Heshuo's expression changed, and he waved his hand, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com said hurriedly.
Li Xiuwen cursed inwardly: A greedy vampire, he really didn't want to take out an extra drop of blood.
There was a shiny BMW parked outside the factory building. The factory manager Tang Heshuo did not go to a dead end. He could still get the workers' severance pay by squeezing, but he just refused to pay.
The noisy carve-up activity finally ended, and the workers discussed how to move them in groups. These production tools are not small and heavy, and the manpower is not easy to move.
"The innermost machine is yours."
Some workers said to Li Xiuwen.
Li Xiuwen thanked him and walked towards his own machine.
In his impression, only the least frequently used and worst-performing machines will be placed at the bottom, and the least valuable.
Li Xiuwen thought: Let's sell scrap iron. Anyway, I don't expect the internship salary in arrears.
The machine that nobody took care of in the corner was about three meters long, covered with a thick layer of black oil. There are many iron-red rust on the surface, and the nameplate is covered by stolen goods, and the 194x era can be vaguely seen.
"Is this an old antique seventy years ago?"
Li Xiuwen was shocked. Where did Tang Heshuo get the machines from? This is too hungry to choose food. It is strange that a factory with such obsolete production tools does not close down.
When curiosity came up, he found a piece of dark red emery paper and rubbed it on the nameplate.
"Didi, the possession of this Warcraft Factory system is on the verge of destruction. According to rule 0, the self-rescue program is activated. Find the nearest intelligent creature, and the auxiliary module is online."
A mechanical sound suddenly rang in Li Xiuwen's mind, and was shocked, the sandpaper in his hand fell to the ground.
"Who, who is talking?"
