Rebirth of the 1980s: The Military Industry Empire

Qin Baoguo really didn't like dealing with social niceties. It wasted his time. He would rather study technology than try to figure out people's psychology. However, it would be a huge underestimation to think that Qin Baoguo didn't understand these things.

What Liu Yong could think of, Qin Baoguo could certainly think of as well. After Qin Yang's analysis last night, Qin Baoguo agreed with this approach. Factory 960 had many problems, so why not administer a strong dose of medicine! Solve them all at once!

People who are used to eating from the same big pot have a lazy way of thinking. Anyway, working more or less is the same, working or not working is the same. Who would roll up their sleeves and work hard if they could lie down and get paid?

They need to be stimulated, to let them know that poverty is not socialism, and that as long as they are willing to work hard, a good life awaits them!

The next day, Qin Yang was still sleeping in when Zhang Chao woke him up.

"Yangzi, Yangzi, something happened!"

"Has the sky fallen?"

"That's not the case."

"Then let me sleep a little longer." Qin Yang said, turning his head to the other side, intending to continue sleeping.

"That leader who came last time, the one who took Yang Zhaoxiang away, is here again. He said he wants to investigate your corruption!"

The leader who came last time?

Qin Yang finally sat up: "Alas, once Pandora's box is opened, it can't be closed. The demons have already been released. Someone always wants to use Leader Pan as a weapon, but it's not that easy."

"What's Pandora?"

"Pan Jinlian's father."

"Oh."

While Qin Yang was chatting with Zhang Chao, Wang Guoqing from the security department also came: "Qin Yang, the leader wants you to go to a meeting."

"Got it, I'll be right there."

In the conference room of 960, the factory's middle-level and above leaders were all sitting there, staring straight ahead. Leader Dong was sitting in the main seat, his face full of seriousness.

"We have received reports that your factory 960 has another serious economic case. What's going on? It's only been a few days since Yang Zhaoxiang's incident, how can your factory have this kind of thing again? Should the higher authorities send a working group to be stationed in your factory?"

"A working group is fine, but sending an observation and learning group is the most appropriate. They can see how our factory 960 revitalized a near-bankrupt third-tier military factory through reform." A voice came from outside.

"Qin Yang, what are you saying?" Zhu Zizhong's face was dark: "You're so disrespectful!"

After criticizing Qin Yang, Zhu Zizhong turned his head to Leader Dong: "Leader, don't be angry. This child Qin Yang didn't mean to offend you. He's always been like this since he was a child."

Leader Dong's eyes flashed: "Observation and learning group? I'm curious, what should everyone observe and learn? How to embezzle state assets, how to put the factory's money into your own pockets?"

"Leader Dong, I want to know, if someone deliberately confuses right and wrong and frames someone, shouldn't you also take care of it? You can't let good people suffer injustice, right?"

A light flashed in Leader Dong's eyes: "Okay, you can talk about it today. If you're right, then I'll criticize the person who reported you. But if you can't justify yourself, Yang Zhaoxiang is your example!"

"Leader Dong, our factory is engaged in military-to-civilian conversion, and our main product, the Lion brand air rifle, was invented by me, Qin Yang. You should know that, right?"

Leader Dong nodded: "That's right, I learned about it when I came last time. You are very good technically, but that's not an excuse for you to embezzle the factory's assets!"

"Leader Dong, if I take this design out and give it to other third-tier military factories, or even just an ordinary mechanical processing factory, how much money do you think I can earn?" Qin Yang said, "The Wucheng shooting team has already used the gun I invented for experiments, and it has the same accuracy as professional air rifles from German companies. I'm not bragging, but this design of mine is worth at least 100,000 yuan! If I were to sell it to a foreign air rifle company, it would be worth at least one million US dollars, and the foreign air rifle company would also hire me as a technical consultant!"

"But I didn't care about this money at all and gave my design to Factory 960 for free!" Qin Yang said, "A selfless person like me is actually being slandered as someone who embezzles the factory's property! Don't you think I'm more wronged than Dou E?"

In this era, intellectual property rights have not yet become a kind of wealth. The inventions of many factory technicians belong to the factory for free, but if they are taken out, they can indeed be sold for money.

"That two thousand yuan is a commission?" Leader Dong asked in surprise.

"Yes, of course it's a commission. The people who maliciously reported me certainly wouldn't say that." Qin Yang said, "That day, the factory was worried about sales. As the saying goes, there must be brave men under heavy rewards. The factory finally decided to use commissions to promote sales. The factory gave a wholesale price of twenty-five yuan per air rifle. As long as the salesperson can sell it, the extra money is the salesperson's commission. Everyone present knows about this plan, and it has already been recorded in the case. You can take a look."

This was Qin Yang's greatest confidence. What I did was with the consent of the factory affairs meeting. Are those who reported me blind?

Leader Dong looked at Zhu Zizhong with questioning eyes.

Zhu Zizhong nodded: "Yes, Leader Dong, when we held the factory affairs meeting at that time, everyone agreed to this plan. We have already calculated the cost. The manufacturing cost of an air rifle is about ten yuan, plus labor, it is fifteen yuan. Our factory can earn ten yuan for a gun. How much the salesperson sells is their skill. After all, the more they sell, the more our factory earns."

"Factory Director Zhu, our commission plan is very inappropriate." At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded.

Everyone looked over in surprise, looking at the speaker: Chen Lishui, the head of the sales department.

What was he going to do? Publicly oppose the factory director during the investigation by the superior leader?

"The factory belongs to everyone, not just someone. Everyone is working hard for the factory's military-to-civilian conversion. Qin Yang has indeed made a great contribution, but this can never be an excuse for him to embezzle the factory's assets. Think about it, everyone, what did the salesperson do? Isn't it just saying a few words? Why should they get so much money? The guns are produced by the factory. If they can be sold for thirty-five yuan each, wouldn't the factory's profit be even greater? Now, it's equivalent to the salesperson eating the share that the factory deserves into his own stomach!" Chen Lishui looked righteous: "As the head of the sales department, I feel ashamed of this kind of behavior!"
