Chapter 761 Liu Haizhong's Struggle 15
In the slightly noisy but somewhat serious factory conference room, Liu Haizhong nodded slightly. His movements were not large, but he showed a calmness, as if the steady and dignified him of the past had returned. His eyes no longer had the panic and anxiety caused by the rumors, but were replaced by a kind of firmness and calmness after going through twists and turns, and his expression was obviously more calm than before.
He slowly turned around and looked straight at the factory leader who was standing not far away with a serious expression. Liu Haizhong took a deep breath to make his tone sound particularly sincere. His voice was not loud, but it was clearly heard by everyone present: "Leader, I am really sorry for causing you trouble this time. You have to worry about so many important things in the factory on weekdays, and you have to be distracted by my trivial matter. I feel really sorry. Moreover, this matter has seriously affected the normal order of the factory. Everyone should have focused on their work, but because of this rumor, people are in panic. This is all my fault. In the future, I will pay more attention to my words and deeds. I will think carefully before doing anything. I will not be so reckless and so easily misunderstood. I will also remind the people around me to keep their mouths shut and not let such unfounded rumors spread. Our factory cannot be affected by such dirty things again."
The factory leader's originally tense face gradually revealed a relieved smile after hearing Liu Haizhong's sincere words. That smile was like a ray of sunshine in spring, dispelling the haze that had been shrouded in the meeting room due to the rumors.
The factory leader took two steps forward, stretched out his broad palm, and gently patted Liu Haizhong's shoulder. The power conveyed by the palm seemed to be a silent encouragement and recognition. "Comrade Liu Haizhong, you are right to think so. Our factory is like a big family, and every employee is an indispensable member of this family. Everyone should unite as one and focus on work. Only when we think and work together can our factory develop better and better. This incident is also a lesson. Everyone should take it as a warning in the future. No matter who you are, you must always pay attention to your words and deeds, and don't let similar things happen again."
As the factory leader finished speaking, this special meeting held because of the rumor was drawing to a close. Workers began to disperse one after another. Some of them were talking quietly in groups of three or five, while others were hurrying, as if they wanted to return to their work as soon as possible and make up for the delayed work. For a while, the meeting room was filled with footsteps and light conversations.
However, Xu Damao and Yan Bugui did not leave immediately. Like two children who had done something wrong and were full of guilt, they lowered their heads and followed Liu Haizhong reluctantly. Liu Haizhong seemed to be aware of their presence. He stopped, turned around slowly, and looked at them gently. There was no blame or complaint in his eyes, only an open-mindedness and tolerance after going through hardships. "Okay, go back to work and don't think about it anymore. Let the past be the past, and we have to look forward. We will still be good colleagues in the future, do a good job together, and contribute to the development of our factory." Liu Haizhong said with a smile, and that smile was like the warm sun in winter, warming the hearts of Xu Damao and Yan Bugui.
After hearing Liu Haizhong's magnanimous words, Xu Damao and Yan Bugui seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw, and their faces were instantly filled with expressions of gratitude and guilt. Xu Damao's mouth seemed to be wound up, and he kept muttering: "Haizhong, thank you so much. If you hadn't been so magnanimous and didn't bother with us this time, we really don't know what to do. You are our reborn parents!" As he said this, he clasped his hands together and bowed to Liu Haizhong repeatedly, looking like a flattering servant in ancient times.
Yan Bugui was not willing to be outdone. His eyes were red and his voice was choked with sobs as he said, "Brother Haizhong, I, Yan Bugui, have rarely been convinced by many people in my life, but today I am really convinced by you. You are broad-minded and you don't argue with foolish people like us. I will be a good person in the future and never do such foolish things again." As he spoke, he wiped the corners of his eyes with his hand, as if he was really moved to tears.
The two thanked him profusely for a long time before slowly leaving, looking back every few steps. Every few steps, they would look back at Liu Haizhong, their eyes full of gratitude and reluctance, like two children about to part with their loved ones, afraid that they would never see Liu Haizhong again. Liu Haizhong stood there, smiling and waving at them, until their figures gradually disappeared from his sight.
Looking at their receding backs, Liu Haizhong sighed softly. This sigh contained both the emotion of the past turmoil and the expectation of harmonious coexistence among colleagues in the future. Afterwards, he straightened his clothes and walked towards his post with firm steps. Along the way, the scene of the conversation with Xu Damao and Yan Bugui just now kept emerging in his mind, and he secretly decided in his heart that he must cherish the friendship between colleagues more in the future and not let similar misunderstandings and conflicts happen again.
When Liu Haizhong returned to the workshop, he noticed that his colleagues' eyes had changed as soon as he entered. Before, because of the spread of rumors, his colleagues looked at him with strangeness and suspicion, as if he was a sinner who had done something shameful. But now, those eyes no longer had those negative emotions, but a little more admiration and trust. Some colleagues even nodded and smiled at him when they saw him come in, and that smile was full of friendliness and kindness.
Liu Haizhong felt warm inside, as if a warm current was flowing slowly in his heart. He knew that this was the trust he had gained with his sincerity and tolerance, and it also strengthened his determination to work hard. He secretly clenched his fists and encouraged himself in his heart: "I must work harder, live up to everyone's trust in me, and take the production of our workshop to a higher level!"
In the following days, Liu Haizhong worked even harder like a tireless machine. Every morning, before the first ray of sunlight fully illuminated the earth, he came to the workshop early. He first carefully inspected every machine in the workshop, from the appearance of the machine to the internal parts, without missing any details. He gently stroked the shell of the machine with his hand, feeling its temperature and vibration, as if he was having a silent conversation with these machines. Once he found any abnormality in the machine, he would immediately take out the tools and carefully repair it until the machine returned to normal operation, and then he would leave with peace of mind.
During the production process, Liu Haizhong strictly controls every link. He is like a rigorous commander, always paying attention to every move on the production line. From the delivery of raw materials, to the processing of products, to the final inspection of finished products, he personally inquires about them and does not miss any minor problems. Even if there is a small flaw, he will immediately ask the workers to rework to ensure that every product meets the quality standards.
Liu Haizhong never backs down when faced with technical difficulties. He always takes the initiative to study, immerses himself in piles of information, and consults various relevant books and documents. His eyes are fixed on the words in the book, as if he wants to engrave every knowledge point into his mind. When he encounters something he doesn't understand, he will humbly ask the experts for advice. He will sort out the problems he encounters in advance, and then stand respectfully in front of the experts with these problems, and listen carefully to the experts' explanations. Sometimes, a word from the experts can make him suddenly enlightened, and he will be excited as if he has discovered a new world. He will immediately return to the workshop and apply the knowledge he has learned to actual production until the problem is completely solved. Thanks to his efforts, the production efficiency of the workshop has been continuously improved, the product quality has been getting better and better, and his colleagues' admiration for him has become deeper and deeper.
After the rumor storm, Xu Damao and Yan Bugui seemed to have been reborn, like a completely different person. Xu Damao was once a famous "loud speaker" in the factory. Whenever he had free time, he loved to gather in the crowd and spread all kinds of gossips with great excitement, from the east to the west. There was nothing he didn't get involved in. Yan Bugui was also a person who loved to join in the fun. When he heard a rumor, he couldn't help but spread it everywhere, and often exaggerated it, making the originally simple things sound mysterious.
But now, they are completely different. Xu Damao no longer rushes into the crowd whenever he has free time like before, but puts his mind on work. Every day when he arrives at the workshop, he goes straight to his work station, his eyes fixed on the work at hand, and he never relaxes for a moment. He knows that he lacks skills, so he takes the initiative to learn skills from the old masters in the workshop. Whenever he has free time, he will follow the old master, watching the old master operate the machine without blinking, and his focused expression seems that the whole world is only the work in front of him. When he encounters something he doesn't understand, he is no longer as embarrassed to speak up as before, but humbly asks the old master for advice. He will stand in front of the old master respectfully, with a sincere smile on his face, and say: "Master, I don't understand this part, can you explain it to me again?" Seeing that he is so eager to learn, the old master always patiently explains it to him, over and over again, until he fully understands it. Under the careful guidance of the master, Xu Damao made rapid progress. His originally unfamiliar operating techniques gradually became proficient and his work efficiency also improved a lot.
Yan Bugui is no longer keen on gossiping, but instead does his job well. He comes to the workshop early every day, cleans his work area first, and puts the tools neatly. When working, he is meticulous and strictly follows the operating procedures. Every action is standardized and precise. Not only that, he often helps other colleagues. When he sees a colleague encountering difficulties, he will take the initiative to step forward and ask with concern: "What's wrong? Are you having any problems? Let me help you." Then, he will patiently analyze the problem with his colleagues and propose solutions. With his help, many colleagues have successfully solved the problems at work, and their work efficiency has also been improved. His warm-heartedness has won unanimous praise from everyone, and his colleagues' attitude towards him has also changed from being distant to being close.
Once, the workshop received an urgent order. The customer required a large number of products to be produced in a very short time. The tight time and heavy tasks were like a mountain pressing on everyone's hearts. Liu Haizhong, as the backbone of the team, took the initiative to stand up. He stood in the center of the workshop, looked at everyone with a firm gaze, and said loudly: "Comrades, this order is tight in time and the task is heavy, but we can't back down. We must work together to overcome difficulties and complete the order on time!" Then, he reasonably allocated tasks according to everyone's technical level and expertise. While allocating tasks, he encouraged everyone: "I believe in everyone's ability. As long as we unite as one, there will be no difficulties that cannot be overcome!"
Xu Damao and Yan Bugui also actively responded to Liu Haizhong's call. Xu Damao took the initiative to undertake the more difficult production tasks. He gritted his teeth and thought to himself: "I must complete this task well and not let everyone down!" He worked day and night on the production line. When he was tired, he leaned against the machine to rest for a while. When he was hungry, he just ate a few bites of food and then continued to work. Yan Bugui was not willing to lag behind. He not only completed his own work quickly and well, but also took the initiative to help other colleagues complete some things within their ability. He helped this colleague pass the tools, and helped that colleague check the product quality. He was very busy.
With everyone's joint efforts, the workshop was bustling with activity. The roar of the machines and the shouts of the workers intertwined like an exciting song of struggle. After several days and nights of continuous hard work, the order was finally completed on time. When the last batch of products passed the inspection and was ready to be loaded and shipped, everyone cheered, their faces filled with the joy of victory.
Moreover, the quality of the products produced this time has also been highly praised by customers. When accepting the products, customers were full of praise for the accuracy and performance of the products, and also expressed that they would continue to cooperate with them if there are orders in the future. The factory leaders were very happy when they heard the news. At the factory-wide meeting, the factory leaders specially praised Liu Haizhong's team. He stood on the podium and said in a loud voice: "Liu Haizhong's team showed a high sense of responsibility and spirit of unity and cooperation in the production of this emergency order, and completed the task on time and with high quality, winning honor for our factory. They are the pride of our factory!" After that, the factory leaders also awarded them bonuses.
Liu Haizhong was holding the bonus, feeling deeply moved. He looked at his colleagues, all of whom were familiar faces with proud smiles. He smiled and said, "This is the result of everyone's joint efforts. Each of us has worked hard in this mission. Let's keep working hard and strive to achieve better results! I believe that as long as we unite as one, the development of our factory will definitely get better and better!" After hearing this, his colleagues nodded, their eyes full of longing and confidence for the future.
