Chapter 35

The day after Qin Qidong talked to two people, the bureau began to dispatch a large number of personnel to the factory.

For a time, the entire factory was bustling with activity. Lin Xiangrong led a few aunties, guided by the people from the industrial bureau, to establish personnel files for the new arrivals.

Starting from the end of December, a group of young people gathered at the car entrance every day. They chatted happily, inquiring about the factory's benefits and wages, their faces full of hope for the new life.

On this day, Lin Qiangsheng, along with a few others, set up a sign at the factory entrance that read, "Comply with factory regulations, or your personnel file will be returned to your original place of residence!"

The young people, who were chatting enthusiastically, saw a younger boy leading a few others to set up a sign at the factory entrance, and they gradually quieted down.

Facing the scrutinizing and exploring gazes of the young people, Lin Qiangsheng remained calm. A few gazes were particularly special, and Lin Qiangsheng stared them down.

"Who is this kid? Why is he so full of himself?" someone whispered in the crowd.

"Wow, the two guys next to this kid are really strong! They must be eating really well here!" another young man said, surprised at the two workers behind Lin Qiangsheng.

Lin Qiangsheng had specially picked two strong workers from the sheet metal department. They were already big, and with the good welfare and plenty of food provided by the factory over the past six months, they had naturally grown even stronger.

The young people were discussing, and most of their attention was drawn to the kid and the two people behind him.

Lin Qiangsheng cleared his throat, looked at the crowd, and said loudly, "Pay attention! I am Lin Qiangsheng! I am the team leader of the mold workshop in the factory. Ahem! My father is the workshop director of the new factory!"

"Oh!" The crowd's doubts were dispelled. So this kid was so full of himself because he had a big backer! The workshop director, they might end up working under his father in the future!

Understanding this, the crowd's expressions toward Lin Qiangsheng changed. While they didn't exactly flatter him, no one dared to challenge him at this moment.

Lin Qiangsheng rolled his eyes. It wouldn't work without revealing his background! Most of these young people were from the countryside and were used to being wild. Those who hadn't lived in the countryside were even wilder, almost like hooligans. Without revealing his background, who would listen to him!

Lin Qiangsheng looked around the crowd, then took out a piece of paper from his pocket and said loudly, "Pay attention! These are the factory regulations. No one is allowed to violate them, or you will have to take your personnel file back to the industrial bureau! Don't say I didn't warn you!"

"First, comply with factory discipline. No unjustified tardiness or early departure, and no unexcused absences, or you will be treated as absent without leave!

Second, no theft within the factory. The factory's property is not yours. You are not allowed to take anything without permission! If anyone thinks the factory's property is their own, then your property is also the factory's! If you take anything, I will personally lead a team to your home to retrieve it! If you don't give it, we will take it by force, and we'll see who has more people!"

"Haha," some young people immediately started to jeer, laughing at the kid for talking big.

Lin Qiangsheng looked at them, and the two strong workers standing behind him stepped forward, rolling up their sleeves and glaring at the crowd. Even the workers watching from behind the factory gate glared and started to curse at the young people.

Although the young people were used to being wild, they knew that jobs were waiting for them in this factory, and a good position was right in front of them. They could grab it! The young people held their tempers and quieted down.

The situation was stronger than the people. Since they were here, they had to follow the rules. Many had already made up their minds.

Lin Qiangsheng continued, "Third, the factory has built restrooms for everyone. You can use the restroom according to the schedule. When the factory machinery is running, you are not allowed to go to the restroom without permission. If you need to go, you must report to your superior and get the team leader's approval. Learn to hold it! If you really need to go, report to your superior and get the team leader's approval before you go! You are not allowed to leave your workstation without reason! You are not allowed to waste time in the restroom, avoid work, or slack off! We do not welcome such people, and we will send you back where you came from!"

"Ha ha ha..." The young people laughed, looking at each other and teasing.

Some of them really had such thoughts. They imagined that when they were tired at work, they could find a place to take a nap, rest, and smoke. What a good life that would be!

But before the good life arrived, the factory had already thought of it and set the rules, eliminating their fantasies of an easy job and a good life right from the start!

"Fourth, no drinking during work hours," "Fifth, no smoking in the workshop, violators will clean the toilets for a month!" "Sixth, no looting of factory property," "Seventh, no fighting, no cursing, no wasting food, no parking in disorder, no gathering to chat, no damaging public property, no using work hours for personal matters, no leaving the factory during work hours..."

"Damn, so many don'ts!" someone in the crowd muttered.

Lin Qiangsheng read out many rules, making the young people's faces turn green.

Zheng Yongmin patted Lin Qiangsheng on the back as he walked back to the factory gate and said, "Good job, Qiangsheng! These are the factory rules you summarized? Great! You have taken care of the details that we usually overlook! If we follow these rules, I believe we can build the factory well!"

Chang Yuanting also said with a smile, "Qiangsheng, your summary of the factory rules is excellent! This can be considered making up for your past mistakes. The trouble you caused before really made things difficult for everyone!"

Lin Qiangsheng quickly smiled and said, "Director Zheng, Factory Manager Chang, I am really sorry for the trouble I caused before! I didn't expect things to get so serious!"

Chang Yuanting smiled and waved his hand, saying, "It's all in the past. In the future, just contribute more to the factory!"

Zheng Yongmin said, "Qiangsheng, you didn't do anything wrong. Solving the family issues of factory workers is something everyone has been doing. Now, a bad situation has turned into a good one!"

Lin Qiangsheng nodded and smiled, then, following the instructions of the two factory leaders, formally posted the factory rules on the bulletin board inside the factory.

The glass of the bulletin board had been cleaned to a shine, and in a very prominent position, a large white paper was particularly eye-catching!

At the top of the paper, two large and particularly prominent characters, "Discipline!"

This set of factory rules, at some point, spread to the provincial government, to society, to the central government, and even made it into internal reports!

Many people in the country learned about this ambitious car factory in a border province and about Lin Qiangsheng through these rules.

Years later, this set of factory rules became the brightest highlight of that era!
