Chapter 296: I have to give up the position of factory director
Fu Weihao asked Fang Youming to be responsible for telling the other members of the tank team that he was going to recruit everyone in the tank team to join their regiment and the tank manufacturing plant that their regiment was about to build, and tell them how good the treatment was, and asked them to give him an answer before tomorrow noon at the latest.
Song Cenyue has already connected all the systems and instruments in the tank. If there are no problems after testing in the afternoon, they will drive to the military sub-district. If there are no problems after the actual artillery firing in the military sub-district, he will take Song Cenyue back to the regiment. Therefore, they will leave tomorrow afternoon, so the tank team must give him an answer before noon tomorrow at the latest.
Song Cenyue did not blame Fu Weihao for not discussing it with him. She said that they would leave tomorrow afternoon. Although she felt that it was too hasty to leave tomorrow afternoon, she could understand that he had been here for many days and spent too much time, so he had to return to the group as soon as possible.
She thought to herself that if everything went well, and there were no problems in the afternoon test, and if there were no problems after the tank was driven to the military sub-district for live artillery firing, she would go back to the production team to pack her luggage, and then deal with the house and hand it over to Su Dawei. Although time was tight, it was still enough.
It was just that for her, the time was barely enough, but for the tank team, the time was definitely not enough...
"Captain Fu, could you give me a little more time? I need to reply to you by tomorrow noon at the latest. That's fine. I will go find the other members of the team and tell them about this later. But those who have agreed to go will not be able to pack up and go with you so quickly. After all, they are all married and have families to support." Fang Youming said to Fu Weihao with an embarrassed look on his face.
"Director Fang, don't worry. I asked you to reply to me by tomorrow noon at the latest. I didn't ask you to follow me tomorrow and return to the group with me." Fu Haowei shook his head and smiled.
"I know it's impossible for you to leave with me tomorrow. You all have families to support. It's hard enough to pack your things, and you have to deal with work at the tractor factory and other things. You can take your time to pack...
I will send someone to pick you up in half a month and help you move to our group. It will also take time for me to arrange accommodation for you."
Hearing this, Fang Youming was relieved. Xu Tiexi, who was the first to agree and wanted to follow Song Cenyue the most to go to the tank manufacturing factory that Fu Weihao and his team were about to build, was also relieved.
Although he really wanted to go, he couldn't leave tomorrow. If he wanted to go with Song Cenyue, he would need at least a week to deal with matters at home and in the factory.
After dinner, Song Cenyue and the others went back. As soon as Song Cenyue got back, she got into the tank and started testing. Fu Weihao could drive a tank, so he naturally knew how to test and could help her. He also got into the tank and tested with them, which could reduce some of her burden.
"Xiao Zhao, Xiao Zhang, you are here."
After Song Cenyue and Qian Jingdong got into the tank for a while, the people from the tank team who were not there in the morning came one after another, and after more than ten minutes, everyone was there.
After seeing that everyone had gathered, Fang Youming told them that Fu Weihao wanted to recruit everyone in the tank team to their regiment and join the tank manufacturing plant that their regiment was about to build. He also told them how good the treatment was and everything that Fu Weihao had promised.
"This happened too suddenly. I need to think about it carefully." someone said.
"I have to go back and discuss this with my family."
"Me too……"
"Okay, but Captain Fu and Comrade Xiao Song will leave tomorrow afternoon to return to their regiment, so you have to give Captain Fu a reply no later than tomorrow noon... But if you agree to go, you have half a month to deal with family matters, work and other things. Captain Fu will send someone to pick you up after half a month to help with moving and so on." Fang Youming nodded.
"We need a reply before tomorrow noon. This is too urgent. There is only less than a day left... Can't we give it some more time to think about it?" someone said.
"Yes! Director Fang, the time is too urgent. We need more time to consider such an important matter." Someone immediately agreed and asked for more time to consider.
"You have to ask Captain Fu about this." Fang Youming said. He couldn't make the decision on this matter and couldn't give them more time, so he had to find Fu Weihao.
Fu Weihao and Song Cenyue were in the tank, and they heard everything that was said outside clearly. Song Cenyue opened her red lips slightly and said, "Brother Weihao, I think it will take time to build the tank factory anyway, so you can give the tank team more time to think about it...
After all, this is a matter that concerns their future, and even the future of their entire family. Asking them to give an answer tomorrow at noon is too short a time frame, and I’m afraid they will have trouble considering it carefully.”
Fu Weihao thought about it, felt it made sense, and nodded.
He temporarily stopped what he was doing, stuck his head out of the tank, and said to the tank team, "I asked you to give me an answer before noon tomorrow, but the time is too tight. I'm sorry to bother you. How about this? I'll give us ten more days to consider, and you can give me an answer after ten days at the latest... In order to give you enough time, the date I send someone to you will be changed to one month later. What do you think?"
"Okay, okay. Thank you, Captain Fu, for your understanding and willingness to give us more time... The time you've given us now is enough for us to think carefully and discuss it with our families."
"Yes! Thank you, Captain Fu!"
The members of the tank team nodded happily and expressed their gratitude to Fu Weihao.
Fu Weihao said a few more words to them and then went back to the tank to continue helping his girlfriend inspect it.
No one in the tank team outside was interested in the inspection anymore. They all started discussing whether to go to Fu Weihao or not.
"What do you think? Do you want to go?"
"I haven't decided yet. What about you? Have you decided whether to go or not?"
"I haven't thought about it yet... Director Fang, Engineer Liu, what do you two think?" Someone looked at Fang Youming and Liu Tiexi, thinking that since one of them is the factory director and the other is the only senior engineer in the factory, their decision would be the most relevant.
"I have already promised Captain Fu that I would go with them... I like tanks very much now, and I can say that I am obsessed with them, so I want to continue building tanks with Comrade Xiao Song and continue to learn from her... This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for me, and I don't want to miss it." Liu Tiexi said.
"I also want to agree. My idea is the same as Engineer Liu's. I also like tanks and am fascinated by them. I want to follow Comrade Xiao Song to build tanks and continue to learn from her. But I still have to go home and discuss it with my wife and get her consent. After all, I have to let her go with me and take the children with me." Fang Youming replied.
Hearing what he said, several people in the tank team screamed and shouted, "No way!"
"No way! Director Fang, you also want to agree! You are the director, the director! If you go with him, you will not be the director anymore, how can you bear to do that! You should know how many people envy this position of director! How many people want to be your director..."
"Besides, this is a tractor factory. An ordinary tractor factory worker is admired and respected, let alone you, the factory director!"
"That's right! Director Fang, don't be confused, you have to think about it! Consider it carefully... We are just ordinary workers, but you are the director." Considering Fang Youming, he kindly reminded him.
The position of factory director not only has great power and high salary, but most importantly, there are many hidden benefits.
Although tractors are very expensive, they are still very popular. Many people are scrambling to buy tractors, but the production capacity of tractors is limited, and tractors are in short supply. You cannot buy one even if you have money. So many people ask the factory director for help in order to buy a tractor. If you want someone to do something for you, you have to give gifts and benefits.
Therefore, the tractor factory director's wealth is quite astonishing.
Hearing the reminder from his subordinates, Fang Youming hesitated. Yes, he was the factory director, a position that many people envied, and it was very lucrative. If he left the tractor factory and went to Fu Weihao, he would not be the factory director, and naturally he would not have the amazing lucrative benefits.
Before, I just wanted to follow Song Cenyue to continue building tanks and continue learning from her, and I didn’t consider this at all.
We have to do this well and not be impulsive.
Liu Tiexi saw Fang Youming's hesitation and the wavering in his eyes. He wanted to persuade him to stick to his original idea, but swallowed the words back when they came to his lips.
The power, treatment and benefits of the factory director position are too tempting for most people to give up. Even if they give them up now, they will probably regret it later.
So if I persuade him now to stick to his original idea, and if he listens and decides to join Fu Weihao's group, he will definitely blame me if he regrets it in the future, thinking that it was all my fault for persuading him.
So it is better not to try to persuade him. Let him think it through and make his own decision.
Fu Weihao and Song Cenyue were testing while listening to the conversation outside. They knew that Fang Youming might hesitate and waver, but neither of them wanted to persuade him. They thought the same as Liu Tiexi.
But Fu Weihao was still curious about what Fang Youming would choose in the end, so he discussed with Song Cenyue in a low voice: "Yue'er, do you think Director Fang will join our group in the end?" He lowered his voice so low that only Song Cenyue could hear it, and no one outside could hear it.
"I don't know... but I think ordinary people would be reluctant to give up the power and money that the factory director brings." Song Cenyue shook her head slightly.
If it were her, she would, but she can't expect everyone to be like her. Most people are ordinary people, and what ordinary people care about most is power and money.
The position of director of a tractor factory is what many people dream of. Many people could never climb to this height and sit in this position even if they struggle for several lifetimes. So she felt that once Fang Youming fell into hesitation, the more he thought about the benefits of the position of factory director, the more reluctant he would be to give it up.
And I'm afraid his family will not want him to give up the position of factory director, and the benefits that come with it, and they will definitely persuade him, even cry, and he will probably stay in the tractor factory as the factory director in the end. If so, it is human nature, she will not blame him, she will respect his choice.
Anyway, we don't really need him!
Although the tractor factory needs a lot of talents, talents can be cultivated. You can ask your partner to find some good seedlings for you and then cultivate them slowly.
Fu Weihao listened to his girlfriend's words and looked at her expression. He knew that she felt that Fang Youming might not join their group in the end. Although she was a little disappointed, she did not want to force Fang Youming to join their group. He tried to find a way to make Fang Youming finally agree to join their group.
He could offer Fang Youming a salary that would tempt him and make him willing to give up his position as director of the tractor factory and join their regiment, but Fang Youming was not a target, and he was not indispensable to building the tank manufacturing plant. There was no need to offer him a very high price or give him amazing treatment.
Fu Weihao nodded slightly at his partner and said with a smile, "I never thought of him as the factory director before. Considering the treatment I gave him before, the people in the tank team should be tempted and agree to join our regiment."
"It's okay. I'm here! As long as I go, it doesn't matter whether others go or not. As long as I am here, I can train you all the talents needed by the tank manufacturing plant, as long as you provide me with good seedlings." Song Cenyue looked at her partner and knew that he also thought that Fang Youming would not go to their regiment in the end. She was afraid that he would be disappointed, frustrated, or even sad, so she gave him a gentle smile and comforted him softly.
"Yue'er, thank you, it's great to have you!" Fu Weihao nodded, his lips raised high, and the smile reached his eyes.
It’s really nice to have the moon. It makes people feel safe, secure, and happy!
