Scholars in the courtyard.

Chapter 2283 Everyone is reassured

Yang Xiaotao and Wang Guodong laughed together after hearing this. Yang Youning didn't care and picked up the chopsticks again. This time he enjoyed the meal even more.

After dinner, Yang Xiaotao went to the training ground.

Even in this cold weather, the training did not stop. A group of men exhaled hot air in the cold wind, and their shouts even drowned out the sound of machines in the workshop.

Standing here for a while, I felt the urge to be part of it.

They found Liang Zuoxin, took out cigarettes and lit them up.

Facing the north wind, Yang Xiaotao told the story of the Nine Departments.

Liang Zuoxin remained calm about this.

For him, it is not a part of the same system as the machinery factory, and he is responsible to his superiors.

However, as the specifications of the Red Star Machinery Factory increased, the objects of his reporting also kept changing.

The higher the status of the person being rewarded, the higher his status.

It can be imagined that this time the Red Star Machinery Factory has become the main force of the Ninth Ministry of Machine Building, and his identity as the security department of the Third Department will be further improved.

Of course, rather than advancing in power, he would rather train his subordinates and make the Security Department a stronger team.

Now, the quick reaction squadron has been reorganized into three teams, and he is preparing to replenish the manpower.

In addition, Special Operations Team Group D is also being planned. In the future, there will be three external teams, which will also facilitate missions.

But after Yang Xiaotao said this, he felt that it was a bit too little.

At the very least, the rapid response squadron can be upgraded to a battalion, which will have three squadrons under its jurisdiction and can be stationed in various branch factories.

Liang Zuoxin was thinking quickly in his mind, and at the same time, he was also thinking about how to recruit the required number of people.

After Yang Xiaotao left, Liang Zuoxin quickly returned to the house and picked up the phone. He planned to contact his old leader to see if a group of elites could be allowed to retire early.

Of course, if Yang Xiaotao knew what Liang Zuoxin was thinking, he would definitely give him a thumbs up.

This is a novel idea. No wonder he was brought to the machinery factory.

Yang Xiaotao had just returned to the office when he was dragged by Chen Gong to the conference room. After the door was closed, everyone in the room started laughing.

Yang Xiaotao saw that in addition to the people from the head factory, Liu Huaimin and Yang Youning, there were also directors from various branch factories.

Sitting on the left are Liu Huaimin, Yang Youning, Chen Gong, and Wang Guodong.

On the right are Xu Yuanshan, Bai Jingshu, Sun Shan, Ding Xiangjun, and Guan Zhiyong.

Sitting at the end opposite were Huang Degong and Zhou Shenghong.

Well, all the senior executives from the Red Star Machinery Factory who could come have come.

Even those who couldn't come have almost received the message.

But Yang Xiaotao doesn't care about these.

Originally in his mind, the team of the Ninth Department was mainly composed of the Red Star Machinery Factory.

Although the upper-level leadership organization will send some people, the middle-level leaders will most likely be the ones on the scene.

What's more, Yang Xiaotao also needs familiar people to support the framework of the Nine Departments.

He took out two boxes of cigarettes from his pocket and threw one box to one side. Everyone took them up, opened them and lit them up without hesitation.

Soon the room was filled with smoke and the radiator by the window was emitting heat. Everyone took off their coats, but their faces were still flushed with excitement.

They had all heard about what happened in the Nine Departments, so they were a little nervous.

For high-end players, it only takes a word to decide who to play with and who not to play with.

But the results are completely different.

Moreover, everyone knows each other on a daily basis, and no one wants to lose face at this time.

Therefore, whether or not they could follow President Yang into the core layer became everyone's urgent expectation.

Zhou Shenghong even made tea himself and poured it for everyone one by one, looking at Yang Xiaotao with admiration in his eyes.

"Ahem! I say!"

"Don't you want to say a few words to everyone?"

Xu Yuanshan approached Yang Xiaotao, and since they were close, he started asking directly.

Yang Xiaotao smacked his lips twice, then shrugged, "What else can I say?"

"Just do what the leader tells you to do."

Yang Xiaotao's indifferent attitude made everyone feel uncomfortable.

Many people had their words stuck in their throats, and could only take two deep puffs of their cigarettes to calm their inner emotions.

However, there was some resentment in the eyes when they looked at Yang Xiaotao.

It feels like the emperor is not anxious, but the eunuch is.

"Your attitude won't do. This is such an honorable thing. You need to stand up for it."

"How can you be so calm about such a big thing? How can you not be excited?"

Liu Huaimin immediately slammed the table, asking Yang Xiaotao to act like a boss.

Liu Huaimin also knew his own abilities. He was very good at assisting others.

But if he were to be the boss and make decisions himself, he would feel a little confused.

That was the case when I first went to the Ministry of Machine Building.

Working all day long but not knowing what to do.

It was only after he returned to the Red Star Machinery Factory that he was able to regain his original feeling and do his work with ease.

Simply put, just let him know how to do it so that he can get things done well.

But if no one tells him what to do, he will lose his direction and even do useless work.

As for Yang Youning, there is no need to mention it. His strengths are all in his words and he can handle interpersonal relationships well, but when it comes to doing practical things, he is still a little lacking.

Chen Gong is similar to Lao Yang, but a little more tactful.

It was this tactfulness that created a gap between him and Lao Yang.

Not to mention the others, they are more than qualified to be a factory manager and can also do the job as an assistant.

The premise is to follow the right person.

And Yang Xiaotao is undoubtedly the right person for them.

From the steel rolling mill to the Red Star Machinery Factory, Yang Xiaotao has never disappointed anyone.

"Uncle Liu, I haven't officially taken office yet. Besides, what's the point of me getting excited? Up to now, I don't know how to start this matter."

Yang Xiaotao spread his hands and smiled bitterly, "The news came too fast, I wasn't prepared." "What's there to worry about if you're not prepared? There are so many of us. If everyone speaks up and thinks of a solution, then it will come out, right?"

Yang Youning interrupted and Xu Yuanshan and others nodded immediately.

After they received the news from Yang Youning, they rushed over immediately.

It’s hard to explain over the phone, but after I got here and heard Yang Youning talk about what was going on in my heart, I had mixed feelings, and the only thing left was excitement.

A rising tide lifts all boats.

Even if you can't make it to the top, it's still a step forward, a big step!
From now on, they may not be ordinary factory managers!

"Yes, with so many of us, isn't it easy to think of a solution?"

Bai Jingshu also agreed. If it was really upgraded to the ninth department, the Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory would be upgraded from a branch factory to a higher level, or even become a separate department.

This is a huge matter.

At the beginning, the Bai family had connections in the foreign trade sector, thinking that it would be good enough to be able to achieve the current level and to be able to save some face for the family.

But I didn't expect that there would be a better opportunity.

If we don't catch this, it will be unforgivable.

He was thinking in his heart that he would tell his family afterwards that he would give full support to the operation of the Ninth Department.

You also need to say hello to the foreign trade side.

"Yes, Mr. Yang, please tell us what you think first. If we all work together, maybe we can come up with a solution."

Zhou Shenghong was adding water to Yang Xiaotao's cup, with a smile on her face more than anyone else present.

Who would have thought that he, a director of a lumber mill, would be where he is today?
Even if I can't follow President Yang into the upper echelons of the Ninth Department, having the relationship with President Yang is enough.

What's more, both of his boys went to work in the machinery factory.

"Yes, Mr. Yang, tell me, what do you think?"

Everyone in the group looked at Yang Xiaotao eagerly.

Seeing this, Yang Xiaotao spread his hands and said, "Mr. Chen's positioning for the Ninth Department is the development of high-tech and related industries."

"The first task given to us is to integrate the production of the Baiju fighter."

“This can be considered a test.”

The people below heard this, and Yang Youning reacted the fastest, "Mr. Chen said what about those factories that produce airplanes?"

"Yes, I told you, there are nine of them."

"Really?"

Now Yang Youning was a little uneasy, because there were hundreds of factories there.

"real."

After Yang Xiaotao confirmed it, everyone below immediately started whispering to each other, but their faces were full of joy.

"In this case, the scale of our nine departments is not small."

"If I remember correctly, the size of the Sixth Machinery Department's factory was less than a hundred."

Chen Gong directly mentioned our nine tribes, and everyone acted as if it was a matter of course.

"eighty eight."

Liu Huaimin chuckled and said a number. He had worked in the First Ministry of Machine Building and knew a little about the situations of several subordinate ministries.

"The largest one is still the First Ministry of Machine Building. Even though it has been divided several times, the foundation is still there. Moreover, it has developed rapidly in recent years. Now it has at least 500 factories."

"If it was before the family split, it would have been at least a thousand."

Liu Huaimin explained to everyone, "Then there is the Third Ministry of Machine Building, which is also a big one, with at least three or four hundred companies."

"The others, apart from the unsociable Old Eight, are probably only about a hundred."

"Of course, these are the main ones, and they are on record with the superiors."

"As for the small local factories, there is no way to say anything about them."

When everyone heard this, they were even more delighted.

When the Ninth Ministry was first established, it was inherently stronger than several other machinery ministries, so its potential for subsequent development is definitely not bad.

Everyone was in high spirits, and Yang Xiaotao continued, "I told Mr. Chen that I also want to expand into the pharmaceutical, chemical, alloy, machine tool and other industries."

"Mr. Chen also agrees and has no objection."

"That is to say, in the future our machinery factory will spread out like dandelions and form independent entities."

As Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, Xu Yuanshan, Bai Jingshu and others below all blushed. This was what they wanted, and Yang Xiaotao did not disappoint them.

"This is great."

Yang Youning already had this idea, and now it coincides with his own.

Looking at Xu Yuanshan and others across from him, "Now you have more room for development."

"You don't have to be confined to the Red Star Machinery Factory."

Xu Yuanshan shook his head. "It's the same everywhere. The key is to have achievements that you can show off."

"Otherwise, no matter how big the name is, it will be useless."

Several people nodded.

Yang Xiaotao admired Xu Yuanshan for his clear understanding. The name is not important. What is important is whether he has real skills.

"By the way, there's one more thing."

Yang Xiaotao spoke again, "I think the several workshops in our main factory can also become branch factories."

When Yang Xiaotao said this, Liu Huaimin was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "That's a good idea."

"It's time for our factory to expand its production capacity."

"We cannot let this hold back the pace of development, especially the machine tool workshop, which can be set up as a separate machine tool production plant."

"And we have the ability and the skills to do so."

Yang Youning and Chen Gong both nodded after hearing this.

"Yes, there are several other projects, such as armored vehicles, air conditioners, and engines. Any of them will be in great demand."

Wang Guodong smiled and added, "I used to be afraid that others would get a bargain, but now we can handle it ourselves. It's really the best."

Everyone smiled, with infinite hope in their eyes.

They knew that if these branches became independent, it would mean more people would be able to take up management positions and get promoted, which would be an opportunity for everyone.
