Chapter 1310 Cheng Kaiyan
With the merging of manpower from the two counties, the area available for development is even larger.
With the completion of industrial adjustment, very obvious progress has been made in all aspects.
For example, in the production of textile machinery, two-thirds of the parts were sent to the other two counties for production. Jinling turned to the final difficult, high-precision, and high-demand parts, as well as the final assembly work. With such link expansion, the output will naturally be greatly increased.
In fact, the textile machinery in Jinling has always been in short supply, and the warp and weft that were most affected were burned. They didn't care about Jinling before, but now they are starting to resort to tricks.
Not to mention foreign countries, with their development now, their machinery can no longer defeat Jinling. Although there is not such a big generational difference, the gap has gradually begun to widen in various data. The price is still cheap, how can I buy it from abroad?
The purpose of Jinling Machinery is very simple. Before foreign countries can start a price war with Jinling, Jinling will take advantage of it to lower the price. Jinling's costs are lower and its profit margins are larger. However, the cost of foreign countries is high, and their output cannot match that of Jinling. If the price is lowered, it will seriously affect the efficiency and R&D investment. After three to five years, they will basically be waiting for death.
Jinling must first kill the foreign machinery.
Of course, it is not yet fully open, and there is no real world trade. If it is after the new millennium, foreign textile machinery will die faster...
The same is true for the production of agricultural machinery. This is even more necessary to expand production, because in order to release labor, the least people must be used to cultivate the most land, and the freed labor must be transferred to industry.
Therefore, most of the parts for agricultural machinery of various types and uses in Jinling are transferred to the other two counties for production, and the main factory here in Jinling performs final assembly.
In addition, motorcycles, tractors, chemical fiber, chemical industry, canned food, meat, breeding, etc., have all been relocated, divided into zoning areas, expanded scale, increased production, and also provided a large number of jobs for the rural population in the other two counties to move to the city.
For shoes, clothing, daily chemicals, etc., they are divided into several different factories to produce different series, covering everything from low-end to high-end.
With such an increase in production capacity, the money earned is spread out several times. Part of it is employee salaries, benefits, etc. in the two counties, part of it is the infrastructure and public construction of the two counties, and part of it is invested in the newly planned facilities. Most of it was invested in the construction of Jinling headquarters and agricultural machinery production to liberate productivity.
It is worth mentioning that there are two things.
Throughout 1983, Jinling earned more than $140 million in foreign exchange.
Among them, in addition to Jinling's various foreign partners and new customers from the Canton Fair, the most important one is Lawen Harris, a foreign devil he met at the Canton Fair in 1982.
With Wang Yan's remote guidance, as well as the sufficient, high-quality, novel and effective supply of various daily chemical products for shoes and clothing, and with the cooperation of the Jinling people who were dispatched, Lao Wen embraced the unexpected change. With the expectation of becoming a billionaire, the Jinling brand was successfully launched in the United States.
Wang Yan supported some American knives and opened direct sales stores in the United States. Lao Wen mortgaged his house and car to conduct various marketing. After a year and various activities, Jinling Famous Brand has gained brand awareness in the United States, and with sales, it has made money.
However, in the United States, the Jinling brand is not called Jinling, but 'JL', and the brand logo is the same, looking like 'Wu'. As for the repetition of JL, it doesn't matter, it's just an abbreviation anyway, and the worst possible outcome will be a lawsuit.
Part of the money earned was given to Lao Wen, part of it was used to build direct sales stores, and part of it was used to purchase equipment around the world. As long as it could be purchased, it was bought and sent back to the country, and at the same time it was used for the country. Pay some foreign exchange.
This is not a secret matter, and there is no need for back-and-forth actions. It cannot be hidden.
So since it cannot be hidden, since there is no need to hide it, of course it must be promoted domestically with great fanfare. This is also one of the reasons for such action, that is, export sales lead to domestic sales.
So Jinling spent money and vigorously promoted the sales volume of Jinling's famous brands abroad. It also published some interviews with foreign devils and a lot of photos of crowded stores. If you recognize our Jinling brand, then it is a real brand, so just buy it.'
It's gross, but it works.
Domestic marketing started in the second half of 1983, and it can be said that sales have soared as reflected in the reports. Especially after October, Jinling's direct sales stores opened one after another, which further reflected the popularity of the stores.
It’s not just shoes and clothes that are driven by daily chemicals, because Jinling’s direct sales stores, like supermarkets, occupy a large area and are divided into regions. As long as it is produced in Jinling and is facing the people, everything is on display. Including shoes and clothing, daily chemicals, furniture, food, daily necessities, etc., they are basically more expensive than ordinary things.
The prices of Jinling products will never be reduced. The quality must be established from the beginning. Once the price is reduced, it will be useless.
Another thing is the formal establishment and operation of Jinling People's Development Bank. As long as the equipment and network are set up, it is not difficult to operate. Just find a place and connect the equipment.
The first business we opened was to apply for bank cards for employees and government officials in the three counties. Other willing people can also apply for them.
The main reason is that the bank card is on a trial basis and will need to be operated for a period of time. Only after various problems are resolved can it be fully released within the three counties. After all, the information technology at this time was not as powerful as it would be later. It was just usable, and there were still many problems.
But even so, Jinling has more funds available. Because the salaries paid to employees are directly transferred to the employees' bank cards from the finance department, and employees' salary, welfare, subsidies, etc. account for the bulk of the funds.
By the end of 1983, Jinling's average monthly income had reached 80 yuan, and the minimum income was 67 yuan. This year, the average annual income of employees nationwide was 826 yuan, and Jinling has reached above the national average.
The number of employees counted at the end of the year was more than 19. This includes new employees from the two counties. The monthly payment to employees is 16 million.
In addition to various in-kind benefits, such as staff housing, three meals in the canteen, New Year gift packs, free reading for children, free school supplies, medical expenses, pensions, etc., on average per month, if calculated purely in terms of money, three Fifty million can't stop it.
But in fact, because of Jinling's different operating methods, apart from external procurement, the cost of internal things is extremely low. The cost of self-production is only the cost of raw materials and employees' wages, and then dilutes part of the R&D expenditure. The real labor cost is monthly. Thirty million is as high as the sky.
But the productivity of 200,000 employees is definitely not as simple as 30 million. Otherwise, how would the buildings come from, how would the roads be built, how would all kinds of tractors be distributed, how would the drama be sung, how would textile machinery be able to stay ahead of the curve, and how could they dare to research semiconductors when there is no such thing as bullshit?
It’s all the people’s surplus value!
In the past, it was the 240,000 people in Jinling County who supported the Jinling Group. From now on, it will be the millions of people in the three counties who will push Jinling to a higher glory...
In the blink of an eye, time came to mid-July of 1984. Song Yunping successfully gave birth to a baby boy at Jinling People's Hospital, weighing six pounds and three ounces. Wang Yan’s biological father named him Wang Jin.
After Song Yunhui received the news, he immediately asked for annual leave from the factory and returned to Jinling with Cheng Kaiyan from the original drama.
“Jinling is so nice!”
After leaving the station, Cheng Kaiyan looked around at the dizzying array of vehicles, people, and various shops. She said, "It's much better than Jinzhou. I've heard that Jinling is good before, but I really didn't expect it to be so good." good."
"Two years ago, there were prefabricated houses here, but now they have all been demolished. There are more shops and a lot more food. What a big change."
"How about we stop taking the bus and walk back?" Cheng Kaiyan said.
"Three or four kilometers." Song Yunhui was a little moved, but refused, "I was carrying something in my hand and took the train all the way..."
"It's okay. To be honest, I was quite tired before I got off the bus. But after I came out and saw the situation in Jinling, I wasn't tired at all. The newspapers said that the people of Jinling have achieved basic socialism. , I want to see how it goes."
"Actually, I can't see anything. Jinling is not that wealthy yet. But now people in Jinling can have enough to eat, their children are taken care of, and their old age is supported. Everyone has nothing to worry about. Jinling is there for life, old age, illness and death. The group takes care of everything, everyone works together and shares together. This is indeed a great achievement, but there is still a long way to go and there is still a lot to do.”
"Then you have to take a look. Why are you from Jinling not eager at all?"
"I also really want to see the changes in the past two years. In fact, Jinling has changed very quickly. It can be said that it is completely different now when I left home to go to college."
Song Yunhui said with a smile, "What I told you just now were my brother-in-law's exact words, not mine. He said that he only achieved phased achievements, and comrades still have to work hard. Since you don't feel tired, you are not afraid. Hot, let’s go.”
"Hey, is your brother-in-law particularly serious?"
"I'm not serious. I'm a very friendly person. I'll know that when I see you. Don't be afraid, my brother-in-law can still eat you? Let's go. Let's buy a bottle of ice-cold soda first to relieve the heat."
This was heard by the policeman passing by, and he stopped immediately: "Hello, comrade, have you seen the stall under the awning over there? You can buy mung bean soup over there, it's free. We in Jinling specially give it to Passengers coming here to cool off.”
Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!
"Thank you, comrade police. Actually, I am from Jinling, but I haven't been back for two years."
"Oh, then you must be a capable person. Take a good look at the changes in our hometown and strive to come back for development. We are short of talents in Jinling. Where are you going? Can I have someone take you off?"
"No, no, no, let's take a walk, just in time to see the changes in our hometown."
"Okay, if necessary, call the police, militia, or internal security guards."
The police comrades waved their hands and immediately continued patrolling.
Song Yunhui and Cheng Kaiyan went to the stall that gave out free mung bean soup. They saw the two of them busy there. They skillfully made a large plastic cup, then put ice cubes in the large freezer, and then stirred it in the big bucket. , just put a spoonful of mung bean soup in it, it will be almost full, and it will not spill out when you move it.
"Jinling is really rich." Cheng Kaiyan sighed.
Whether it's mung bean soup, ice cubes, or a freezer, it's all about money. Jinling Station has a large passenger flow, and there are many people. The cost of this item alone is not a small amount every day.
"Jinling doesn't lack this. Since there are all here, there must be a lot in the staff canteen, and the school must also give them out for free. Let's go."
The two chatted and laughed as they walked along the asphalt road towards the residential area.
This is a central axis. From the station, walk to another parallel road. Go straight to the county government office building, and then to the residential area. Beyond the residential area, there are some factories. Go the other way, and another kilometer is a large market for foreign vendors.
The traffic at the station is very dense, and the market is even more crowded, just to avoid causing greater congestion. Especially during the New Year, vendors from all over the country can line up all the way to the gate of the county government. Trains and cars are also busy, so it is natural to avoid it.
Along the way, Song Yunhui introduced the situation to Cheng Kaiyan, and occasionally asked passers-by, so he knew the situation.
"Originally this was our county government building, and the street facing it was the most prosperous place in our county. Including two years ago, there were bookstores, shops, restaurants, clothing stores, furniture stores, etc. People in the old houses on both sides of this street moved into the staff housing, and later the rural population moved into the factory, and they lived here. Unexpectedly, now they are all demolished, and I don’t know what to build..."
This place has been fenced off, and the two can only take a detour with their things.
Only then did they realize that the original central area of the county town has become a huge construction site, with fences everywhere and construction everywhere...
There is nothing to see here. The two took a detour and finally found a crowded place. It is the original location of the residential houses. The government is temporarily working here, and various shops are also temporarily opened here.
It occupies half of the original old county town. I think when the fenced areas are built, they will come back to build this side...
Jinling is not as prosperous as imagined. Although there are many shops on the street, they are actually the same configuration. There are all kinds of restaurants with different flavors, snacks with different characteristics, plus shops, bathhouses, mahjong halls, chess and card clubs, etc., which constitute the commercial and entertainment activities of a street.
After seeing a street, you have seen the appearance of the entire county. However, the distance is well controlled, so that the residents of any place will not be too far away, and there will be no excessive overlap of such commercial streets. You can buy things, eat things, find the street office, and find the police station in a maximum walk of fifteen minutes.
All life-related services, as for theaters, cinemas, etc., they are farther away, but they also occupy a larger area and can accommodate more people...
In general, it is better than other places, but not much better.
But the spirit of the people is different. The elderly are very comfortable, the children are very lively, the young people are very high-spirited, and the middle-aged people don’t have too many worries. On the whole street, few people are walking fast, and few ride fast. The whole is a slow pace.
Everyone walking on the street is holding their heads high, their eyes are bright, and their words are powerful. What is revealed is a strong self-confidence, which is the style of Jinling.
This is a carefree relaxation for everyone, but in the factory, everyone is still very passionate and energetic. The collective allows stupid people to exist, but does not allow people who are cunning and slippery to exist. If you are bored working in the factory, then go to do infrastructure, and be managed as intensively as those prisoners. You will cry for your parents in less than three days, but you can't come back for three months.
So the people of Jinling are already accustomed to the fast pace in the factory and the slow pace in life. They are relaxing their bodies and minds...
In this way, the two of them walked around a lot, walking and watching, and eating and drinking. Although the shops on each street are similar, there are many. Compared with the previous two years, it has almost doubled, and there are all kinds of food.
Until they were full and drunk, they returned home tiredly...
Daily thanks to the good brothers who give rewards, vote for monthly tickets, recommend tickets, and read books silently for their strong support!
