"President Zhao, President Zhao, something bad happened … …"
"Is there an accident at the workshop?" President Zhao stood up immediately. If there was an accident at the workshop just after Lunar New Year, it would not be good news.
"No. There is no accident at the workshop. Everything is normal."
President Zhao sat down and took a sip of his tea. He scolded: "There is no accident. Why are you panicking? What happened? Tell me. "
"President Zhao, go to the entrance of the factory and have a look."
"Someone is here to create trouble?" President Zhao frowned. Who dares to create trouble at the entrance of FAW? Furthermore, the workers' salaries had been paid, and from March onwards, the workers' salaries would be increased. Who would dare to create trouble at the entrance of FAW?
"It's not creating trouble. Someone is here to recruit workers!"
"What did you say? Recruit? "President Zhao had an incredulous look on his face. Recruit? Why at the entrance of FAW? With FAW's benefits, why would the workers leave? FAW had always been the one to recruit workers. No one had ever recruited workers from FAW!
When President Zhao walked to the door, he realized that the security guards were arguing with some strangers.
"What's going on?"
"President Zhao, these people are too much. Look at their banners!" Chief Ye from the security staff said angrily.
President Zhao looked up and saw banners full of words fluttering in the wind.
"Bing City Machinery Company's Automobile Branch Factory is recruiting skilled workers."
"Early retirees under the age of fifty-five can sign up."
"Once hired, their salaries will be higher than FAW's."
"All workers will be provided with staff quarters."
"The higher the rank, the better the benefits."
… …
President Zhao was shaking with anger. Bing City Machinery Company again? What are they trying to do? You dare to come to our First Automobile Works to recruit people? You've gone too far!
"Take away all their banners!" President Zhao said angrily.
"What? This area is outside of FAW's factory. Your security staff does not have the authority to enforce the law. I will call the Police. "The Machinery Company's new Deputy Factory Director, Automobile Branch Factory Director Ma Aiguo shouted.
You all still want to call the Police? We want to call the police!
Director Ye also knew that the security department's law enforcement power was only limited to the inside of the factory. Once they left the factory, they would be brought to the local police station. In the past, when they were enforcing the law at the entrance, no one dared to object. Today, when someone pointed it out, he began to hesitate, especially since the other party was not from a small unit, and was even a cadre!
"Ye Linhua, what are you doing? Can't you hear me telling you to take away their banner?" President Zhao roared.
"President Zhao, what's wrong? First Automobile Works is so overbearing, and you even want to interfere with our Machinery Company's recruitment?" Ma Aiguo stood in front of the banner.
"Recruiting? Are you guys recruiting? Do you not have enough workers in Bing City? You want to recruit people in front of our First Automobile Works? Are you trying to poach our people? What are you trying to do?! "
"It's our freedom to recruit people wherever we want. It's none of your business. Besides, how did we poach people from FAW? Look at these banners. Which one of them mentions FAW? "Ma Aiguo shouted.
Before coming here, Ma Aiguo had been instructed by Feng Yu and Li Mingde not to mention FAW on the banners. But they must let the people from FAW understand what they are doing.
This way, the news will spread faster. But they must not resort to violence, and they must not be at a disadvantage. If the other party wants to be unreasonable, then they will run away. Feng Yu will come and help them!
First Automobile Works can hire retired workers, but they must not hire current workers. If not, the Machinery Company will be in a bad position.
Ma Aiguo also promised the both of them that he will recruit at least 30 skilled workers for the automobile branch factory. He guaranteed that all of them were Grade 4 workers and above. So, he brought along more than 10 workers from the factory's publicity department and drove two minivans to the entrance of First Automobile Works.
He purposely chose to do this during the workers' shifts. Many of the workers did not live in the factory, and their banners could be seen the moment they left the factory.
Ma Aiguo also asked his men to use a loudspeaker to shout about the Machinery Company's recruitment conditions and benefits. Although Ma Aiguo had called over some FAW workers and their families, he also called Ye Linhua, who was from the security department.
Ye Linhua looked at the banners. Why were there so many people? He thought there was an accident at the entrance. If there were workers from FAW in the banners, then he must not let his own people suffer losses.
But when he got closer, he realized that the workers were from Bing City's Machinery Company. How could he do this? This was the same as buying slippers in the bathhouse!
But after arguing with Ma Aiguo for a while, he could not win against Ma Aiguo. Ma Aiguo was from the Machinery Company's publicity department and was in charge of marketing. Ye Linhua was just an uneducated man who only knew how to scold and hit people. How could he win against Ma Aiguo in an argument?
President Zhao had come and asked him to snatch the banners, but he did not dare to do so. That would be overstepping his authority. If the other party was an ordinary civilian, he would not be afraid. But the other party was a leader. If he fought with him, it would be troublesome.
President Zhao pointed at Ma Aiguo's nose: "You are recruiting retired workers, and you are doing this in front of FAW. Do you still need to explain?"
Ma Aiguo slowly said: "President Zhao does not know much about the law? I did not write this on the document. You are the one who thought of this. Of course, if your factory's retired workers apply to work at our Machinery Company's Automobile Factory, then you cannot blame us. Or President Zhao can announce in the factory that they are not allowed to work at our Machinery Company. Even if they are going to die of poverty, they must grit their teeth and endure it. They must not be envious or jealous. "
After arguing for a while, Ma Aiguo saw that President Zhao was getting anxious. He asked Ye Linhua to snatch the banners. If anything happened, he would be responsible. Ma Aiguo immediately told everyone to keep the banners and drive off.
President Zhao did not know that during the argument, someone had secretly distributed some brochures to the workers. Now, many workers should know about this.
The next day, the FAW Union Chief looked at the stack of early retirement applications on his desk. He almost pulled out all his hair. What the hell is going on? Why are there so many people applying for early retirement? This 54 years old worker can retire at 55 years old, and you can't even wait for 1 year? Don't you know the difference between early retirement and retirement? Also, this guy is only 36 years old. Do you have anyone in your family to take over your position?
The Union Chief asked his secretary and found out what was going on. These people were applying for early retirement and then work at Bing City's Machinery Company. The distance was not far, and they could even return home on a Sunday. Furthermore, the Machinery Company was offering them higher salaries than FAW's workers!
When the Union Chief and all the workshop directors came to look for President Zhao, President Zhao was furious! This Bing City's Machinery Company was too shameless. Was this still the same factory in the same city?
"This time, we will not approve the early retirement applications! If anyone is not happy, we will stop paying their salaries! Also, do not spread rumors about that stupid Bing City's Machinery Company in the factory. If anyone dares to spread rumors, we will stop their salaries! "
