Chapter 543 Private Economy Is No Longer Shameful
Master Ni looked at the dark heads in front of him, and his heart skipped a beat.
Based on his understanding of mainland enterprises, there is basically only one explanation for the situation of Factory 506 - lack of money.
As for today's enterprises, as long as they are not short of money, they will not provoke employees to gather in groups and let them surround the office building. If word spreads, it will have an impact on the reputation of the factory director. You can't even suppress your employees. What kind of factory manager do you want to be?
But Factory 506 is obviously involved in the key project of upgrading digital communications of the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications, and the state will definitely allocate funds. These people suddenly gathered here, most likely to ask for money.
So analyze it carefully, why do they come to ask for money? Was there a hole in the factory before?
If an enterprise has holes, then its operating conditions are unhealthy, and even basic production will be affected, let alone the research and development of technology projects?
Dashen Ni, who had just happily broken up with Liu Lenovo, really didn't want to step into another unit with holes.
"Hey, Ni Gong, why are you here?"
Just when Master Ni was worried, he suddenly heard Li Ye's voice.
Dashen Ni turned around and saw Li Ye and several classmates walking over laughing.
"Classmate Li Ye, what are you doing here?"
"My classmates and I are doing social practice!"
Li Ye smiled and said: "This company is negotiating a joint venture with Hong Kong investors. The business philosophy of Hong Kong investors is definitely different from ours in the mainland.
Therefore, we hope that by understanding the specific circumstances of this joint venture, we can gain a deeper understanding of the differences between the world economy and the mainland economic model. "
"."
"Factory 506 wants a joint venture? With whom? With Pei Wencong?"
"It's indeed Pei Wencong, we are talking about it right now! If the negotiation is successful, you, Lao Ni, will be able to be regarded as a hero in the future."
"."
After listening to Li Ye's words, Dashen Ni was suddenly surprised and happy, feeling like "there is a bright future in a village".
Because of this commissioned research and development of program-controlled switches, Ni Dashen has a very good impression of Pei Wencong. If Pei Wencong really leads the 506 factory in the future, then he will really not have to worry about new research projects in the future.
After all, Pei Wencong has vision, funds, trustworthiness, and backing, all of which are favorable conditions to ensure the smooth progress of technical research projects.
There are many scientific research projects in the mainland every year, but only a small number of them produce results in the end. Some projects are in the wrong direction, some run out of money halfway, and some are simply reported to defraud funds to plug the hole.
Therefore, it is very rare to have an environment where you can really concentrate on research.
"If that's the case, that would be great," Dashen Ni said excitedly: "I remember classmate Li Ye asked me before that if the computer as a whole cannot be studied, can some of its accessories be used?
I can say now that as long as everyone works together, it can be done. "
Li Ye smiled and waved his hands and said, "Hey, hey, don't tell me this kind of determination! Your unit leader is inside!"
"Hehehe, let's go, let's go report first."
Dashen Ni looked at the classmates beside Li Ye, patted Li Ye's shoulder apologetically, and led Xiao Yu through the crowd towards the office building.
Master Ni has now vaguely guessed that Li Ye is not only Pei Wencong's "messenger", but he is also probably from Generation X.
Now that the country has just issued a ban on children not being allowed to engage in business, on the surface, we must pay attention to it.
For example, "The backstage of such-and-such company is the child of such-and-such family," that's usually fine, but if "the child of such-and-such family is the chairman of such-and-such private company," then do you think your pussy is not bright enough? ? Do you have to try hard to pretend?
Ni Dashen and Xiao Yu passed through the people and were about to enter the office building when they saw a group of people coming out carrying tables.
The dark crowd outside immediately became commotion.
"Come out, come out."
"Don't crowd, don't crowd at all."
"Fuck, why are you squeezing like this, an old blind man? If I push you any further, I'll knock off your glasses."
Ni Dashen and Xiao Xiao, who had just reached the door, were squeezed out by the sudden surge of crowds, and their glasses almost fell off.
Just when Master Ni was almost knocked down, Li Ye reached out to support him from behind, protected him and retreated to the outside of the crowd, and joked: "Look at Master Ni, you don't usually buy daily necessities, you even queue up." No way.”
Dashen Ni swallowed his saliva and said, "Who knew we would have to squeeze in line? Every time my family goes out to buy something, they sweat like a war."
Since the country gradually relaxed purchase restrictions on some commodities in 1983, various panic buying phenomena have occurred from time to time. By the end of the 1980s, the largest wave of panic buying broke out.
So if people want to buy good things these days, they must master excellent queuing skills.
Master Ni stood still and asked, "Classmate Li Ye, do you know what they are doing?"
Li Ye pointed to several tables spread out in front of him and said, "Look at this, it's obvious that we are recruiting workers!"
Master Ni asked strangely: "Recruiting workers? These people are all over fifty, should they all retire?"
Li Ye said with a smile: "It's time for hard-working workers to retire at fifty, but for skilled workers who understand technology, fifty is still the right age!"
"."
Dashen Ni looked forward in confusion. After a while, "recruitment" began in front of him.
"Don't be crowded. Don't be crowded. Get in line. Pay attention to the sign and come in order. Those from the first workshop are over here, and those from the machine shop are over here.
If you can understand the circuit diagram in the technical department, go to the table on the far right of the welding workshop in the office later. If you are in the packaging workshop, don't. "
"Why don't you want to be in the packaging workshop? Everyone has dedicated 30 years to the company, so why not?"
"Do you want to burn boilers? I have been burning boilers for thirty years, and no one can burn boilers better than me."
"."
The scene was in chaos until the factory director Yang Suiyan came out and picked up the microphone that had just been set up.
"Stop making noise and making noise. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at by the guests from Hong Kong Island?"
"."
The scene suddenly became quiet. Everyone was not too impressed by Director Yang's majesty, but they must not embarrass themselves in front of the guests from Hong Kong.
Factory Director Yang waited for everyone to calm down and then said in a deep voice: "Let me just say a few words. Our factory will soon enter into a joint venture with Hong Kong Island Electronic Wind Language Company.
Fengyu Company has injected capital into our factory and provided technical talents, and we must reciprocate and help Fengyu Company’s Pengcheng Branch solve their difficulties.”
"Pengcheng Fengyu Company is about to launch a color TV production line and now needs some grassroots technical personnel.
I gave them a guarantee that our employees, regardless of their age, would be highly skilled, hard-working, and disciplined, and only then would they be willing to accept them. But what did it look like just now? "
"."
When the scene was completely silent, Director Yang said again: "I won't say any more. This time it is a two-way free choice.
People are willing to use you because you have the ability. If they don't use you, it's because you are not capable enough. You can't blame others, let alone make trouble. "
"Now let's give a speech to General Manager Chen of Pengcheng Fengyu Company."
Yang Suiyan glared at everyone sharply before moving away from the microphone.
Then Li Ye saw Ergou.
Ergou, who followed Jin Peng south to Pengcheng, is now the deputy general manager in a crisp suit. As his name suggests, he looks like a dog.
Ergou walked up to the stage and said calmly: "Hello everyone, I am Chen Donggou from Pengcheng Fengyu. Everyone is older than me, so you can just call me Xiao Chen."
"I'm here today to be in charge of contacting technical staff. Actually, I want everyone to understand who we need and what the working environment is like."
"First of all, I want to tell you that it's very hot in Pengcheng. When I just came from the north, I lost weight for at least several months, and then I gradually got used to it.
So if you are in poor health, you should consider whether you can cope with the conditions there."
"Okay, that's all I'll say first. If you have any questions, you can ask them now. You must ask them in advance. After all, it's five thousand miles away from home. It's troublesome to go back and forth."
As soon as Ergou finished speaking, everyone in the queue below raised their hands.
"General Manager Xiao Chen, will the salary of one hundred and twenty dollars per person per month you agreed to be deducted? Tell the truth, how much money will everyone get after working hard until the end of the month? "
"Yes! One hundred and two sounds like a lot, but I heard that some capitalists like to deduct workers' wages."
"I didn't hear about it, I read it in literary reports."
"."
Ergou was stunned and said into the microphone: "Who told you the salary is one hundred and twenty?"
"."
Seeing the changed expressions of everyone in the audience, Ergou quickly said: "Don't get me wrong! One hundred and two is the basic salary for junior workers. Director Yang, you, told me that you are all veteran technicians, so"
"Cough cough cough cough~"
Ergou suddenly heard a few coughs. He turned to look at Director Yang and immediately understood something.
Starting in 1984, workers' wages in the mainland began to rise, with ordinary workers rising from more than 40 to 70 or 80, but such high wages as 120 are still rare.
If the gossip in Pengcheng cannot be suppressed at 120 per month, then aren’t all the workers in the 506 Factory in Beijing agitated?
Ergou immediately said: "Don't worry, everyone, although Pengcheng Fengyu is a Hong Kong-funded enterprise, since it is on our territory, it will abide by our mainland rules and will never maliciously deduct wages from workers,"
"As for how much salary you can get every month, it depends on your ability. Let me give you an analogy! If you can bring in an apprentice, there will be a bonus of two hundred yuan for every qualified apprentice you bring out."
"Buzz~"
A group of old technical workers suddenly became agitated. Mainland enterprises pay attention to mentoring and mentoring. Which master has never mentored an apprentice?
If you bring one, you’ll be given two hundred. If I bring three at a time, wouldn’t that give you six hundred?
Traveling thousands of miles just for money, as long as you can earn a lot of money, then Pengcheng, which is five thousand miles away from home, is not that far away.
An aunt raised her voice and raised the question again in the noisy crowd: "General Manager Chen, can you guarantee that your wages will be paid on time?"
Most of the aunts who came to the scene today came with their men.
In fact, they are very conflicted. They don't want their men to be so far away from home, but they also want to make some extra money and improve the environment at home.
Ergou smiled and said: "Director Yang has already discussed this issue with us. If you are worried, you can discuss the ratio yourself. We will remit the wages of all the masters to 506 one month in advance. On the account, you can let your family members collect it, and you will never default on your account.”
"."
There was silence for five seconds.
Then, a group of old ladies pushed their men forward to sign up.
But the men were unwilling: "Don't push me, I don't want to go. You take care of the money at home. I'm going out for 5,000 miles and I don't even have money for cigarettes. What's this?"
The aunt pushed hard: "Hey, I'll leave you 10 yuan a month. I don't care if you smoke to death."
The man took root: "No, I have to leave 30 yuan a month. The soil there is not good. I need to supplement my nutrition."
The aunt rolled her eyes: "30 yuan? Are you going out to earn money for your children? Or are you going out to spend money?"
The man was annoyed and turned away.
The aunt compromised: "Okay, okay, 30 is 30, you go quickly! Lao Liu has signed up. If you sign up late, how can there be apprentices for you to take care of?"
"."
Li Ye stood in the distance, watching rows of excited old employees, signing up, filling out forms and pressing fingerprints one by one, and couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.
Zhen Rongrong, who came with him for social practice, asked softly, "Li Ye, why are you sighing?"
Li Ye said, "Three years ago, our fellow villagers from Pengcheng Seventh Factory came to recruit a few old employees. It took a lot of effort to recruit three people, but now... you see it, right?"
Zhen Rongrong nodded and said, "I see it. Now it is popular to 'go into business'. Private economy is not shameful, and it is also an important supplement to the economic reform in the mainland."
Li Ye exhaled and said, "Yes! Maybe in a while, more state-owned enterprise workers will enter private enterprises!"
Now, except for Li Ye, no one may have predicted that in a few years, it would be that helpless era, and countless workers were forced to make helpless choices.
