Siheyuan: Start as a truck driver

In the office, Fang Mu excitedly reported the results of the past half month's work to Wang Weidong.

Now, although Fang Mu has not officially entered the laboratory work, he has been hired by Lanhua TV Factory as a ninth-level engineer with a monthly salary of 82 yuan.

Being able to get so much salary every month has exceeded Fang Mu's expectations.

Even those students from Qingdao University who have entered the ministries and commissions have a monthly salary of only about 70 yuan.

Not to mention, according to the factory's regulations, he can get a lot of bonuses every month.

Sometimes, salary is a reflection of a person's value.

Fang Mu felt that if he didn’t work hard, he would be sorry for receiving such a large salary.

Therefore, after receiving the task from Wang Weidong, Fang Mu devoted himself to studying the production line of the workshop.

After several days of research, he found that although the production line was perfect, the factory did not seem to fully mobilize the enthusiasm of the workers.

In Fang Mu's opinion, the working speed of the workers was not as good as that of workers in factories in the capital.

The factory also stipulates that each worker can only work two hours of overtime per day.

At this time, the orders outside had already piled up, and many trucks from foreign trading companies were parked in the parking lot of the TV factory, waiting to pick up goods.

Under such circumstances, the TV factory actually restricted workers' overtime hours. Isn't this a deliberate attempt to reduce profits?

However, this rule was formulated by Wang Weidong himself. Fang Mu thought about it and did not add it to the proposal.

"Director, I have already calculated that as long as my ideas are implemented, our TV factory's monthly profit will increase by at least 20,000 yuan."

After finishing speaking, Fang Mu looked at Wang Weidong expectantly, like a child waiting for praise from the teacher.

However, instead of waiting for praise, he saw Wang Weidong's expression becoming more and more serious.

Fang Mu felt a little panicked: "Director...my ideas have been scientifically calculated and will never go wrong."

As an outstanding graduate of Qinghua University, Fang Mu also has his own pride.

How could something he had worked so hard to research go wrong?

Wang Weidong rubbed the proposal with his hand, raised his head and stared at Fang Mu, his eyes were deep and he said:

"Your calculation is correct. If we follow your idea, our factory's profits can indeed be increased.

It's just that factory workers are people first and foremost.

They are not machines that never stop and make no mistakes.

Human beings make mistakes.

If we blindly pursue profits and treat workers as machines, it will definitely be counterproductive."

Wang Weidong's idea surprised Fang Mu. Although today's factories are all state-owned, workers are the owners of the factories.

However, those factory leaders will also find ways to increase the profits of the factory or expand its scale.

After all, only with results can they make progress.

Fang Mu thought for a moment and said, "Director, I cannot agree with your idea.

There is nothing wrong with factories increasing profits.

We can use those profits to expand the size of the factory.

As production increases, our TV sets can be sold overseas and occupy overseas markets.

Wang Weidong said: "What happens after we capture the market? We make more money, but what about the workers?

….

Under high-intensity work, their health will inevitably deteriorate and they will become more susceptible to illness.

When workers go to the hospital for medical treatment, not only will their quality of life be reduced, but the country will also

It consumes a lot of medical funds."

These words set off a storm in Fang Mu's heart. He had never considered these issues from the perspective of the whole society.

Even, to a certain extent, this is not something that a factory director should consider.

As a factory director, as long as you manage the factory well and pay sufficient profits and taxes to the state, you will be considered qualified.

"Director, don't you think that the things you are considering have gone beyond one

What is the scope of the factory director’s responsibilities?”

....

Wang Weidong looked at Fang Mu with confusion on his face and let out a long sigh. Even an outstanding Qingda University graduate could not overcome the limitations of the times.

"Yes, I raised workers' wages and gave them time to rest. In the short term, it did hinder the development of the factory.

But have you ever thought about why we produce TV sets?"

Fang Mu subconsciously replied: "Of course it is sold to people who need TV sets so that they can obtain spiritual entertainment."

Wang Weidong said: "Now each of our TVs sells for more than 1,000 yuan. How many ordinary people can afford it?"

Fang Mu said: "We can sell it abroad. The salary level abroad is far higher than that at home.

Nowadays, the monthly salary of people in Hong Kong is more than 1,000 yuan converted into RMB, and one month's salary can buy a TV.

Wages in Europe and the United States are even higher, more than 3,000 yuan.

And the average salary in China is less than 20 yuan, how can we afford it?"

Fang Mu once studied the sales data of Orchid color TVs.

According to the data, 85% of Orchid color TVs are sold overseas.

Wang Weidong said: "What if foreign countries restrict our sales?

you should

We know that large foreign companies are making every effort to conquer color picture tube technology.

Once they are able to produce products that are comparable to ours, they will definitely lobby the relevant departments in order to seize the market.

By then, if a ban is imposed, we are likely to be shut out of foreign markets.

The domestic market has not been developed, and the people lack spending power.

At that time, what should we do at Orchid TV Factory?"

Wang Weidong is not an alarmist.

In later generations, China was known as the world's factory, with advanced production tools, production technology and skilled workers.

but.

Most goods have to be exported.

Why?

This is because domestic consumption power is relatively weak.

People's income is not enough to support their consumption.

This is the first time Fang Mu has heard of this strange idea.

He pondered for ten minutes before slowly nodding:

"What you said does make sense.

According to the principles of economics, only when there is consumption, there is production.

During production activities, factories pay wages to workers, which in turn promotes consumption.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! This is a virtuous circle.

However, is it useful for just our workers to improve workers’ wages?

We now only have more than 2,000 workers.

Even if it can increase the income of more than 2,000 people, it will not be helpful in improving the consumption level of the whole people in the context of low income levels across the country."

….

As expected of an outstanding graduate of Qinghua University, he instantly understood the mystery.

Wang Weidong stood up and looked out the window at the rising sun, with a determined look and deep eyes:

"If we all feel that it is futile or too difficult, we will not do it.

Then, domestic consumption power

It will never be possible to improve, and people will never be rich.

If someone has to do this, why can't that person be me?

I have no delusion that I can change everything on my own.

I just want to do my best!"

The young sun climbed to the treetops, and bits of golden sunlight filtered in through the glass windows, coating Wang Weidong with a faint golden light.

Fang Mu felt that the golden shadow seemed much taller.

He stood up and walked to Wang Weidong and said solemnly: "Director, I will follow you!"

Wang Weidong nodded happily and said: "Don't worry, I'm not the kind of person who doesn't care about the situation.

A realistic idealist would not bravely attack a windmill like Don Quixote.

For a factory, it is indeed important to reduce expenditures, but even more important is to increase revenue.

Rather than exploiting workers for a small wage, it is better to develop a high-profit product and harvest wealth from developed countries such as Europe and the United States."

"It's true, just like our TV sets, for every TV set we export, the foreign exchange we earn is equivalent to exporting a ton of textiles.

It's just that it's not easy to develop a high-profit product! Foreign research institutes spend billions of dollars on scientific research every year, but they don't get many results." Fang Mu nodded in agreement.

Wang Weidong turned around, took out a pile of materials from his bag, and handed it to Fang Mu.

"Look at this product, it will become the magic weapon for our Orchid TV factory to dominate the world."

"...To dominate the world!" Even though he knew that Wang Weidong was not the kind of person to brag, Fang Mu couldn't help but cluck his lips.

This kind of saying

It seems like there are so many million bits of bragging about the Dharma.

He cursed and took the information, wiped the table, put the information on the table and read it.

"Oriental graphene battery....Oriental super new energy sports car...."

New energy vehicles? It seems interesting.

Oriental supercar uses electric energy to drive...

Hey, I thought it was a good idea! It turns out it’s an electric car!

Can this be called new energy?

As an outstanding graduate of Qingdao University who is well-read, Fang Mu knows that the world's first car is actually an electric car.

Around 1838, Robert Anderson built a car that was powered by a set of non-rechargeable dry cells. It had a speed of 6 kilometers per hour.

It was not until 1886 that German Carl Friedrich Benz created and invented the world's first fuel vehicle.

It was a full fifty years later than the emergence of electric cars.

However, in the following time, fuel vehicles became very popular and spread rapidly around the world, changing people's production and lifestyle.

As for electric cars...no one cares about them anymore.

The reason is simple. Electric vehicles are limited by battery technology, and their speed and mileage cannot be compared with those of fuel vehicles.

Well, there are parameters later, let me take a look.

….

What! Speed ​​450 kilometers per hour, range 800 kilometers!

Fang Mu's eyes suddenly widened, and an incredible voice came out of his throat: "This...how is this possible?"

He swallowed and eagerly picked up the information and started reading.

Wang Weidong looked at his shocked expression, smiled slightly and said, "Look slowly, I have to go to the laboratory and keep a closer look."

"Ah good.

..."

Fang Mu answered subconsciously and then immersed himself in the information again.

If the performance of Oriental's super sports car is really as good as the data says, then the factory director's idea of ​​"dominating the world" is not a delusion.

....

Since the construction of the laboratory is a key project in Ningzhou City, everyone attaches great importance to it.

As soon as Wang Weidong walked to the construction site, he saw large Jiefang trucks loaded with bricks, steel bars and construction materials driving into the construction site.

At this time, the construction site was in full swing.

"Director Liu, we are here to inspect again. Don't worry, this project has been registered by the higher authorities. There will definitely be no problems."

When Director Zhang, the person in charge of the project, saw Wang Weidong coming, he quickly came up to him and handed him a white hat.

"You, Lao Zhang, have been a construction worker for many years, and you have also participated in the construction of the third line of the University. Can I not trust you when you do things?" Wang Weidong took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, spread them around, and looked at Zhang

The director asked: "When will the laboratory be completed? Our TV

The field wants to launch a new project and urgently needs a laboratory for research and development."

Director Zhang's dark face flashed with a red light, he patted his chest and said: "Originally, according to the original plan, the completion of the construction will have to wait until March next year. Now the city has taken into account the requirements of your TV factory and has specially applied for an adjustment from above.

A group of construction workers came, look, they are those people."

Director Zhang pointed to the workers in gray overalls in the distance and said.

Wang Weidong squinted his eyes. The gray work clothes were very different from ordinary workers in both movement and mental state. The cooperation between them was also very different.

They have a better tacit understanding and never chat while working, just like a group of robots who only know how to work.

"Who are these workers?"

Director Zhang looked around, then leaned into Wang Weidong's ear and whispered in a low voice: "They are from the 11th Construction Bureau and are responsible for the construction of confidential projects."

"...Then why are you here?" Wang Weidong frowned.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Director Zhang spread his hands: "I don't know, I just know that it was an order directly from above. I talked to their captain, and the captain only said

In a word, they only follow orders."

Looking at those robot-like construction workers, Wang Weidong had a vague suspicion in his mind.

It seems that the rise of Orchid TV Factory has attracted the attention of the above.

However, this is fine. Once new energy batteries are successfully developed, they will definitely attract the attention of large foreign companies.

For the sake of profit, the methods used by those companies are often not so gentle.

Without a big tree to protect it from the wind and rain, a small Orchid TV factory would probably be swallowed alive by those big companies.

Accompanied by Director Zhang, Wang Weidong walked around the construction site and felt relieved when he saw that everything was in order.

He waved and called Deputy Director Yang over: "Old Yang, inform the canteen and ask them to go to the countryside to collect some big fat pigs to improve the food for the construction workers."

These days, supplies are scarce, and pork is even more in short supply. You need tickets to buy it.

The TV factory cafeteria doesn’t have that many meat tickets at all.

The most common way is to go directly to the countryside to buy from the members.

Although the pigs from the commune can only be sold to food stations in the city, they cannot be sold to private individuals or private companies.

Self-slaughter.

However, there are still many wild wolves these days.

When the breeder was feeding the pigs, he was careless and did not close the door of the pigsty. The pigs ran into the wilderness and were eaten by wild wolves. This is a very reasonable thing.

Of course, the price of pork when sold to factories is much higher than when sold to food stations.

Deputy Factory Director Yang often did this kind of thing on weekdays. He nodded and said, "Don't worry, the secretary of Liujiagou Commune asked me not long ago if our factory needs pigs. I will go and take care of this in the afternoon."

Director Zhang next to him heard this, walked up to the construction workers, and shouted loudly: "Did everyone hear this? Director Liu is going to improve the food for everyone, everyone, come on!"

The greatest happiness these days is eating meat, especially if you do such heavy physical work. Without some oil and water in your stomach, you can't hold it at all.

The construction workers suddenly became enthusiastic.
