Rebirth of India: Superior

Workers' New Village is located in the northwest of the old city of Changchun, adjacent to the connected industrial zone. The people living here are workers from major state-owned enterprises in Changchun. Since the completion of the residential area until now, the life of the workers here has almost been day-to-day. Calm, without any disturbance at all.

But just today, as a truck full of supplies entered the community, the stagnant calm was broken. There were all kinds of discussions, all kinds of dissatisfaction, all kinds of showing off, it seemed that In an instant, this peaceful residential area was filled.

This truck filled with supplies belongs to Ganghe Pharmaceutical No. 1 Branch. This is a new pharmaceutical factory solely owned by Indians. It has not yet officially started construction and is in the renovation and recruitment stage. Although there are many unemployed workers in residential areas, not many people apply for jobs.

Because everyone is talking that the boss of this pharmaceutical factory is a capitalist from India, and those who apply for jobs will be exploited by capitalists in the future. How ruthless is the exploitation of capitalists? Everyone is here. I have seen it many times in books and movies: you have to work more than ten hours a day, and you are violently supervised by ruthless supervisors, and the salary is so pitiful that you can't even fill your stomach.

Amidst this discussion, no one expected that the unscrupulous capitalist actually came to the workers' new village in person, and with him came a whole truck of supplies, saying that he was visiting the workers' homes during the Double Ninth Festival to express condolences to the families of the employees.

Visiting and expressing condolences to workers’ homes is something that business leaders in socialist countries only do during the holidays. How come now capitalists have also learned to do it, and this capitalist is not low-key at all, and even invited market leaders The TV station inside came to follow and record the scene. Such a lively scene naturally attracted enthusiastic onlookers from the residents of the community.

Although this capitalist is from India, he has fair skin and big eyes, which makes him look quite pleasing to the eye. What surprised everyone the most is that this capitalist can actually speak Chinese. Although what he speaks is not very authentic, it is already very good. Remarkable.

After entering the community, the capitalist visited the workers who had officially joined their factory one by one according to a list. Not only did he promise to increase everyone's salary by 50%, he also gave each of them a large box of fruit and With two novelty wool sweaters, and in front of the onlookers and TV reporters, the capitalists promised each worker that the company would not only continue to recruit people in the near future, but also implement a series of new policies.

For example, the policy of non-workers not working on duty means that as long as they are working in the workshop, they will not work on duty in the company. They will go to work when they have tasks and go home to rest if they do not have tasks. Another example is the performance pay system. The content of this system is that there is a financial settlement period every six months. During a financial settlement period, if the company's profit exceeds the profit of the financial plan, then 50% of the excess will be Take it out and give bonuses to employees.

It is said that the eyes of the masses are sharp. This sharpness often means that the people will not easily believe in various promises. They believe more in the benefits they get. This capitalist has made a lot of promises, so are there any specific benefits? Yes, there are so many. Those woolen sweaters are all imported from Japan, and they look like high-end goods at first glance. According to a knowledgeable person in the community who often travels around, this kind of woolen sweaters are sold in Guangdong, and each one costs more than 100 yuan. The money is almost as much as one month's salary.

So, as the capitalists walked around the community, the tone of the previous discussion suddenly changed. Many people felt that working for the capitalists seemed to be quite good. At least in terms of remuneration, it was better than working for the country. Many countries will not give you fruits or sweaters. As for a salary increase, please, it all depends on seniority and professional title. There is never any so-called general adjustment.

Amid this discussion, the first branch of Ganghe Pharmaceutical paid wages for the first time three days later. Just as the capitalist promised, every worker's wage increased, and the increase was a penny by a penny. One hundred yuan, now those who work in Ganghe Medicine can receive at least three hundred yuan in salary. You know, at that time, even the salary in enterprises and institutions was less than two hundred yuan.

This makes it difficult for people to stay calm. Everyone is in the same family area, doing the same work, but just because they have different employers, their treatment is so different. Is this justified?

As a result, many people began to get upset. They believed that it was unfair that they had worked for the country all their lives and still only received a salary of a few hundred rubles. The capitalists have all raised their wages. There is no reason why they, the employees of state-owned enterprises, should not have a raise. Otherwise, how would the superiority of socialism be reflected?

At this time, no one considered that there were only a few dozen workers in Shaklu's factory, and each person's salary increased by one hundred yuan, which was only a few thousand dollars. However, there were 30,000 workers in the industrial zone. If each worker If everyone raises their wages by 100 yuan, what will happen to these state-owned factories? What does it mean? You must know that most of the profits of state-owned enterprises have to be turned over to the government. Even if they are not turned over, all the profits are kept for themselves. Raising such a high salary for employees at one time means that the factory will have to increase three wages every month. With an expenditure of more than one million, the factory would be ruined if it were not a dirty stall.

No one cares about the difficulties of the enterprise, because they can't see it. All they see is that their treatment is lower than others, which is not good. So some people even began to preach that capitalism is better than socialism. However, they don't know that in the real capitalist market system, the only result of actions like Shakru is to be fined a huge amount by the relevant departments. Not only will they be fined to bankruptcy, but they will also be arrested and imprisoned for several years. However, in China at this time, it doesn't matter to do so, because there are no laws and regulations that match the reform and the market economy, and Shakru didn't want to use this to stir up the workers' emotions.

Therefore, the biggest impact of his actions was that the number of applicants to the factory increased sharply, and the personnel department was overcrowded for a while. As the "guide party" who initially gave Shakru advice, Lu Han became the propaganda minister of the factory and also the most trusted Chinese person in the factory.

Shakru's problem was solved, but another person's unlucky days began. This unlucky guy was Wu Mingqi, the former sales director of the pharmaceutical factory who fanned the flames behind the scenes. To be continued.
