Chapter 54: Down with the Old Master! (First Update)

  Chapter 54: Down with the Old Master! (First update)

  The workers at the motorcycle manufacturing plant are in a complicated mood.

  On the other hand, they knew that the municipal government had entrusted Lin Hongfei, a college student who had not yet graduated, to design two motorcycle models for the city's motorcycle manufacturing plant. If everything went as planned, the plant would be able to get out of its current state of stagnation and their own lives would also see significant improvements, no longer having to settle for just a few dozen yuan in basic salary each month.

  On this point, the workers and masters are still very grateful to Lin Hongfei. On the other hand, the fact that Lin Hongfei has become the de facto top leader of the factory makes many people feel uncomfortable: You, Lin Hongfei, a student who just graduated from school, with your milk not yet dry on your lips, how dare you have the qualifications to be our leader? Do you understand management? What makes you qualified for us to follow you wholeheartedly?

  A considerable number of people who work at the municipal motorcycle factory have connections, but their connections are not enough to make them unaware of Dongfang Shu's attitude towards this matter. Therefore, regarding Lin Hongfei taking office as the deputy director of the municipal motorcycle factory, they cannot go to the municipal government to cause trouble, but many of the sharp-tongued people in the factory have already decided that on the day he arrives, they will give him a hard time.

  Ordinary workers are suspicious, the bad boys are picking faults... Lin Hongfei took office in such a situation, and to others, it seems to have a somewhat windy and easy-to-change attitude.

  ……………

  "He's here! Lin is here!"

  When Lin Hongfei's car was still over 300 meters away from the factory gate, someone in the guard room at the entrance shouted out, with a tone of excitement and anticipation.

  These days, Comrade Lin Hongfei has been extremely inconsiderate of the impact, driving his 212 Jeep recklessly every day, coming and going with a whoosh, causing those low-paid workers who have to count every penny to spend to be envious beyond measure, and even more resentful and jealous in their hearts. The original idea that they didn't take Lin Hongfei seriously has now turned into even more jealousy towards the huge gap in living standards between themselves and Lin Hongfei. Why can you live such a great life, while I have to count every penny?

  Imagining being able to make Lin Hongfei eat his words, a group of relatives were excitedly trembling with both hands, "Get out, get out, let's go see what that kid has to say!"

  "Everyone, get out, get out! If that Lin kid doesn't give us an answer today, we'll definitely not let him off." The room was in an uproar, and it was quite "lively".

  The gatehouse was not large, with less than ten square meters of space, and nearly twenty people were packed inside. The air in the room was very murky, and these usually calm people had been waiting for a while and were getting impatient. Now that Lin Hongfei's car was approaching, how could they bear to wait any longer? Suddenly, they swarmed out of the house like a swarm of bees, and in the blink of an eye, more than a dozen people were standing at the gate.

  These people... Alas, seeing this scene, the workers in the factory who didn't have much background and were honest and hardworking couldn't help but sigh: Actually, Lin Hongfei that young man wasn't bad, but he was a young man with no social experience at all, could he handle these rascals?

  No one took care of Lin Hongfei.

  "Why are there so many people at the gate?" Dongfang Xiaoling's eyesight was not bad, and she had already seen that there were quite a few people standing at the gate from afar, asking in surprise.

  "What else can it be besides trying to give us a show of strength?" Lin Hongfei sneered, his face full of disdain.

  "What? So many people?" Dongfang Xiaoling didn't expect the factory workers to be so unruly, and was suddenly startled, feeling a bit anxious in her heart. Subconsciously, she grabbed Lin Hongfei's arm and asked, "What should we do now?"

  "What to do? Just let me handle it." Lin Hongfei curled his lips, with a playful and disdainful expression, not taking these guys seriously at all. "Don't worry, these guys are just paper tigers. They look fierce and menacing, but in reality, they don't dare touch us even with a finger, what's there to be afraid of?"

  This was something that had been anticipated when Director Wu explained to himself his deputy position in charge of the municipal motorcycle factory. A young man with no experience suddenly appeared and rode on their heads, and it's normal for comrades to have emotions. Lin Hongfei was worried that these guys would make some kind of move, but now he's completely at ease: with such little skill, they dare to play this game with me?

  Lin Hongfei's appearance didn't seem fake, not pretending to be calm, but truly not worried. These guys were just bullying him because of his youth, thinking they could take advantage of him, trying to intimidate him and get some benefits from him. If they really took action against him, they wouldn't dare. Although the reform and opening-up has been going on for many years, in reality, the policies have not been fully relaxed, and the problem of being pro-capital or pro-socialism is still very serious. For high-level leaders in factories, even the most vicious ones, when they haven't caught the leader's weakness, they have to be honest and obedient, completing the instructions given by the leader in an orderly manner. Wanting to intimidate him with this approach, these guys were really too naive.

  Lin Hongfei's strong confidence even infected Dongfang Xiaoling, causing Dongfang Xiaoling's emotions, who had never encountered such a situation before, to slowly calm down. It wasn't until this moment that Dongfang Xiaoling discovered that her palms were actually filled with sweat.

  Just now, Lin Hongfei's confident and calm demeanor made Dongfang Xiaoling suddenly realize that her classmate of over a decade had an aspect she was not aware of. This sparked a thread of curiosity in Dongfang Xiaoling's heart, followed by another question: How is he not afraid? Why is he not afraid?

  Within 200-300 meters, the car arrived in just over ten seconds. The Jeep screeched to a halt in front of the crowd. Lin Hongfei jumped out of the car with a frown on his face and strode up to the group of young men. Without waiting for them to speak first, he started cursing at them, "Damn it! I heard someone's trying to give me a hard time? Who's behind this? Come out and show yourself!"

  Whoa!

  Lin Hongfei's sudden and fierce appearance instantly stunned everyone, the group of thugs who had originally come to find trouble with Lin Hongfei were left feeling somewhat bewildered: Weren't we the ones coming to cause this kid trouble? How did it end up being this kid who came at us first and turned the tables?
