Rebirth of the 1980s: The Military Industry Empire

The market-oriented economic reform is a road no one has ever traveled before. Everything is advancing through exploration. Therefore, many problems will inevitably be encountered on this road, requiring wise leadership to discern them.

If Factory 960 doesn't engage in the military-to-civilian conversion project, its ultimate fate will definitely be bankruptcy and closure. After all, even the top-tier factories in the cities are having a hard time, and the higher-ups simply can't take care of the third-line military factories.

Now, the success of Factory 960's military-to-civilian conversion has attracted the attention of higher-level leaders. Of course, they hope that this military factory can embark on a broad and prosperous road, bringing experience to other military factories.

Using salesmen to expand the factory's sales, compared to the sales department sitting and waiting for customers to come, are two completely different approaches. It's the difference between a market economy and a planned economy. Leader Dong also understands the principles. As long as Qin Yang can explain it, he will naturally let Qin Yang off the hook.

"Respected leaders, I have another business deal to report," Qin Yang continued.

"What business?" Zhu Zizhong asked happily, "While Leader Dong is here, you can also report to Leader Dong that our factory's military-to-civilian conversion is ahead of all our brother units!"

Just a moment ago, Chen Lishui was still throwing mud at him, trying to saddle him with the blame of being detrimental to the leadership. Now, things have completely turned around. This is a contribution of the leadership! Now, the matter Qin Yang is about to report will definitely add icing to the cake for him.

"It's like this, when I was in contact with the Wucheng Shooting Team, they needed a more advanced air rifle," Qin Yang said, "I have already agreed to produce ten for them, still in the way of me providing the design drawings, and processing them in our factory. I, this middleman, am willing to give our Factory 960 a price of one hundred yuan per rifle, and the factory can earn more than sixty yuan per rifle!"

Sixty yuan per rifle, ten rifles would be six hundred!

Zhu Zizhong nodded excitedly, "Of course, we can! Leader Dong, have you seen it? This is using monetary means to stimulate our sales staff to work harder, thereby achieving greater prosperity for our factory's business!"

Leader Dong nodded, "This is indeed a way to stimulate the subjective initiative of workers and create more value. Your exploration of sales methods is successful. When the system holds a meeting at the end of this year, you should summarize these experiences and make a report at the conference, so that everyone in the entire system can learn from your successful experiences! Don't hide anything."

"Yes!" Zhu Zizhong was overjoyed. They had never had the chance to make a report within the entire system at Factory 960. This time, they were famous.

"Qin Yang, you can earn a lot from this business again, right?" Leader Dong looked at Qin Yang and asked.

"Yes, my quotation to the Wucheng Shooting Team is five hundred yuan per rifle."

What?

The whole room was shocked.

Ordering from the factory at one hundred yuan per rifle, Qin Yang resells it and earns four hundred per rifle?

If this were in the past, Qin Yang would probably have to go in and sit there, never to come out!

Chen Lishui widened his eyes and reprimanded, "Qin Yang, you still say you're not taking advantage of the factory, you're simply sucking the factory's blood!"

Because of excitement and agitation, Chen Lishui's voice began to tremble.

Zhu Zizhong covered his chest. Qin Yang, the factory doesn't care how much money you earn, but you absolutely can't say it here! Aren't you just making trouble for yourself in front of Leader Dong? Is this showing off or courting death?

Seeing that Zhu Zizhong was about to have a heart attack, Qin Yang knew that he couldn't keep pretending to be a big shot, and had to quickly say the important points!

"Factory Director Zhu, do you remember? Some time ago, I said that I would earn money by my own ability, and I want to become the factory's first ten-thousand-yuan household. Now, I am about to earn ten thousand yuan. With this example, I can motivate more people to join in, reduce the burden on the factory, and also sell the factory's air rifles to more places, thereby achieving the successful transformation of Factory 960. I believe that the sales of ordinary air rifles in Factory 960 this year will reach at least 50,000, and with a profit of ten yuan per rifle, we can earn 500,000! At least one thousand special air rifles for the shooting team can be sold, and if we give salesmen a profit of ten yuan for each subsequent rifle, we can earn more than four hundred per rifle, which means we can earn 400,000. This year, Factory 960's profit will be close to one million!"

Although Qin Yang earns four hundred yuan per rifle for the shooting team, this is only for Qin Yang. Other salesmen definitely can't earn that much. The factory earning four hundred yuan per rifle is still no problem.

This is the 1980s, an era when the average salary is thirty to forty yuan. If it were put in 2020, it would be equivalent to a profit of one hundred million! Moreover, this is calculated as net profit, even after deducting workers' wages, etc., you can still earn so much!

Looking at other factories, they still need the higher-ups to transfuse blood. Their Factory 960, with its brilliant achievements, can definitely become a benchmark within the system.

Zhu Zizhong was so excited. Thinking that one million could be lying in the factory's account, he was happy from the bottom of his heart, cheerful, comfortable!

No one paid attention to Chen Lishui's words. Everyone was attracted by the big pie drawn by Qin Yang.

Liu Yong also smiled. This Qin Yang clearly took advantage of the public, but he spoke so confidently that people couldn't refute it. Amazing, amazing!

"Leader Dong, I have a request here."

"Speak," Leader Dong was also very happy.

Liu Yong thought of something, and was even more excited. This kid! No wonder he spoke so confidently about earning the factory's money just now, it turned out to be paving the way for this final purpose.

Qin Yang had said long ago that he wanted to promote air rifles abroad, but the factory always felt it was unreliable, and it would cost a lot of money to send Qin Yang abroad, so they didn't support it.

Then came Qin Yang's bold words about becoming a ten-thousand-yuan household. At that time, Qin Yang had already made a plan: to use the money he earned to go abroad and help the factory promote air rifles!

In this way, it would be absolutely selfless!

Thinking of this, Liu Yong looked at Chen Lishui on the opposite side.

Chen Lishui also thought of this, his face pale.

After all this trouble, he was played around by Qin Yang! Criticizing Qin Yang for this and that just now was meaningless, after all, Qin Yang earned money and gave it to the factory! Using his own money as travel expenses to go abroad to promote products for the factory is definitely a commendable behavior!

"What are you going abroad to do?" Leader Dong was still curious.

"The air rifles we produce should not only open up the domestic market, but also develop internationally. We want to export and earn foreign exchange," Qin Yang said, "But the factory has no money, so I plan to use the money I earn to take a trip abroad and strive to open up the international market."

These words were really beautiful! Everyone present was an old fox in the officialdom, but looking at Qin Yang's operation today, they couldn't help but admit defeat.

"Qin Yang is a good comrade," Leader Dong sighed.
