Chapter 1169 Tan Bin’s Doubts
Huajing, the headquarters of Xinghua Bookstore.
Since the founding of the country decades ago, almost all departments, state-owned companies and headquarters of China have been in Beijing.
The reason why I say almost is because the headquarters of the People's Bank of China is in Shanghai, which means that Shanghai's role as a financial center cannot be replaced by Huajing.
Apart from this, there is no other city that can compare with Huajing in all aspects.
In fact, when China refers to first-tier cities, they usually refer to Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. The last "deep" is just added by the good guys. In the sequence of national urban development, Nanwan is far behind the first three cities. City.
And Guangdong is also thanks to its thousands of years of trade with Southeast Asia and Europe and the United States. Especially in the late Qing Dynasty, it shouldered almost two-thirds of China's foreign trade... Well, the remaining one-third is in Shanghai.
As a state-owned bookstore chain with influence throughout China, Xinghua Bookstore, like other state-owned departments, such as supply and marketing cooperatives, department stores, grain stations, etc., has reached the county level. Sometimes, they also exist in larger towns and villages. 's bookstore.
This has resulted in the fact that no matter what kind of cultural products are sold, including books, music tapes, dictionaries, pens and ink, etc., including New Year pictures and wall calendars, Xinghua Bookstore sells the best and the most.
No way, this is the biggest advantage of a monopoly.
In addition, Chinese people have had the habit of reverence for imperial power and public power since ancient times. They feel that public goods must be the best, so they will naturally buy them here.
This phenomenon is particularly prominent in rural areas.
It's a little different in the city.
The larger the city, the more diverse the current economic models are.
After all, people are highly educated, and the pilot programs of reform and opening up are basically in cities, especially big cities. Therefore, many businesses that do not meet current regulations have appeared. City managers usually also I won't care about it. As long as it doesn't cause trouble, I'll just turn a blind eye.
Moreover, people in big cities are smarter, smarter, and more knowledgeable. Therefore, when they start various businesses, they are not afraid of anything. Anyway, they have nothing. What does it matter if they lose everything?
In the beginning, they were just doing small things. At most, they were carrying burdens, pushing carts, and doing some guerrilla business.
After three or four years of this, as the individual economy gradually sprouted, more and more rental shops were opened on the street for business.
Because they thought it was very fresh, they sold a lot of things, and their attitudes were better than department stores and supply and marketing cooperatives, their business was quite prosperous.
It sounds a little strange.
Although I see these people...well, these self-employed people are very happy to make money, much more than those who work, but there are almost no people in factories or units who quit their jobs to start a business.
Even though their monthly income is only fifty, sixty, seventy or eighty yuan, they always feel that this kind of stable, guaranteed and down-to-earth work is the most reassuring, because everything is taken care of by the factory or the unit. You don't have to worry about it at all.
For example, Xinghua Bookstore is such a huge collective enterprise with tens of thousands of employees. The person who sits in the position of general manager (x committee secretary) certainly has the power to decide the life and death of the employees below with a single word.
Of course, Tan Bin can't do whatever he wants like in the TV series.
This was basically impossible to happen in the 1970s and 1980s.
Because the state-owned economy was still the main body of the social economy at this time, there was no way to fire workers and employees. Many people in the family had their grandfather work here, and their father continued to work. After the father finished, he took over the job, so many people have a good foundation. , you can criticize them a few words, but if you want to do something, if you encounter someone with a bad temper, you can just beat them - anyway, at most you can transfer me to another place, I will still be from Xinghua Bookstore.
Everyone is confused when encountering such a fool.
In the 1990s, this would have been different. Using the excuse of restructuring or something to lay off these people was a great deterrent weapon. Many factory directors and general managers at the time relied on this trick. He slept with many beauties and coveted a lot of money.
Tan Bin controls the entire Xinghua Bookstore, of course not relying on recklessness, but relying on his own ability.
He spent more than ten years slowly carrying out various reforms, making Xinghua Bookstore earn more and more money day by day. The benefits provided to the employees of the unit are also very good, which is ahead of many people in the system. , which made many people from outside units want to be transferred to Xinghua Bookstore, which made people from the Xinghua Bookstore system walk outside with their heads held high.
Therefore, this also caused Tan Bin to be stubborn. He decided everything by himself and could not allow others to question him.
In addition, his father is an old man and many uncles are still in office, which makes him the only one in this system.
This is why Tan Bin dared to rely on Qilin Records.
To be honest, he looked down on people like Yin Jun. He felt that Yin Jun was just the kind of actor and scholar in the old society, that is, someone who was lucky enough to make a fortune in Hong Kong before returning to the motherland to show off his power and dominion. ——People like this, he has heard many times from friends and some family acquaintances, that they are all speculators without social awareness, and many are even bastards who should be arrested and locked up.
But the current social status quo is that this group of people are the most popular, and the people above are trying every possible means to get them to come back and invest. Even if they do something bad in the country and infringe on the rights and interests of the people, they will not. thing!
Tan Bin is not in those systems, so he can't control these things, but now that Yin Jun's Qilin Records is finally compatible with his system, of course he has to teach Yin Jun what it means to do things according to the rules!
Not only did he reject all of Huo Jianning's suggestions, but Tan Bin also told those who went to choose records, "I don't want any music that is addictive, I don't want anything that talks about love, and I don't want anything that has sexual tendencies!"
Okay.
When pop songs encounter these "don'ts", what's left?
Therefore, I only selected a total of more than 20 records, mostly classical music, folk music, and minor-key music.
Then, of course, Kirin Records did not agree. They tried to communicate with Tan Bin many times, but Tan Bin ignored him at all.
Even if someone from above specifically called to inquire about this matter, Tan Bin did not soften.
He is a person with foundation and principles. He decided to do this without any selfish motives at all, so the people above him can't say anything.
Afterwards, it is said that Yin Jun arrived in Huajing and his instant noodle factory started construction on a grand scale.
On the day when work started, all the xx and national xx people were present, including countless vice presidents and department xx people.
Tan Bin felt a little nervous. If Yin Jun said something in front of these people, even if he was just a vice president, I'm afraid he would have to give in - he could still stand up to his subordinates, and the vice president Level, if you don’t obey, it’s very simple, just change someone.
But from beginning to end, there was no news from above, as if Yin Jun had forgotten about it.
Although Tan Bin looked down on Yin Jun, he knew that anyone who could do business on the scale of Yin Jun was definitely not a fool.
Why did Yin Jun ignore it, as if there was no such dispute?
That he doesn't care?
Of course it's impossible!
Yin Jun invested too much in Qilin Records.
It is said that he purchased more than 800 record copyrights alone. The personnel who went to review and select at the time were a little stunned when they saw this. This was more records than all the records introduced by Huaguo Audio and Video Corporation! How much does this cost?
In addition, Yin Jun bought a total of 50 music tape production lines produced by Sony and Panasonic in Lin'an at the record factory in Lin'an. He also purchased and set up 10 polyester film base tape production lines abroad, specifically for the production of music tapes. Tape, this is another big investment.
According to the information Tan Bin received, no record factory in China has that many production lines, and none of them can compare with Yin Jun in terms of production capacity. ——Kilin Records can record 300,000 tapes every day.
Not to mention the four to five thousand workers in the record factory. If these people lose their jobs because the records cannot be sold, I am afraid that the leaders in Jiangnan Province will directly scold them.
By then it will no longer be a harmless inquiry. When those people get angry, even the relevant departments in Huajing will have to weigh it.
If the trouble goes to the top again and Tan Bin is labeled as "obstructing reform, opening up, and opening up," Tan Bin will be dismissed from get out of class immediately, even if he has connections.
Whenever he thought of this, Tan Bin felt that he was a little too tough. Shouldn't he have chosen a hundred or so tapes and let them sell them? After gaining some face in this way, they won't make a big fuss and they can speak reasonably.
Just when Tan Bin was a little uncertain and wanted to send someone to test the Qilin Group's ideas, he suddenly got the exact news. Yin Jun only stayed in Lin'an for two days after leaving Huajing, and then went directly Guangdong.
However, when Yin Jun left, neither Huajing nor Jiangnan Province got angry. What does this mean?
It shows that Yin Jun really didn't complain.
Strange!
Aren’t these people from Xiangjiang arrogant and ready to complain immediately when something happens?
People like them, when they encounter those good projects and profitable businesses, their food is ugly compared to anything else, but they have no special skills at all and they all rely on policy support from above.
Now the path of Xinghua Bookstore seems to be dead, and the investment of tens of millions is about to lose money, but Yin Jun doesn't panic?
What does it mean?
Tan Bin had already made some preparations, but now nothing was put to use, which made him panic.
