Return to 78: Why are all the Americans panicking about doing scientific research?

"No problem. I can agree to all of your requests on behalf of the County Machinery Factory."

Lin Kaifeng gave his answer without hesitation.

From this moment on, the county machinery factory no longer took a penny from the city.

Starting in 79, Longguo's economic transformation entered the fast lane.

The special economic zone will be established in August next year.

By then.

All kinds of outdated conventions will be swept into the trash in a very short time.

From the highest authorities to ordinary enterprises in Longguo.

As for how to take the path of economic development, we are still at the stage of crossing the river by feeling the stones.

Others are in the toddler stage.

Lin Kaifeng's motor has been thirsty for a long time.

Once the shackles on his neck loosened, Lin Kaifeng could fly directly.

Not only will he fly himself, but he will also take the county machinery factory and the entire country with him.

"Lin Kaifeng, are you planning to seize power?"

Seeing Lin Kaifeng's clear and concise answer, Fang Boyan asked the boy half jokingly and half seriously.

He is only the head of the technical department, but he has the courage to make decisions for the entire factory.

Have you been eyeing the position of factory director for a long time?

"Leader, you are wrongly accusing me. How dare I seize power and take over the class?"

"Everyone trusts me and asked me to come over to cross-sign the book."

"Everyone trusts me, so I naturally have to trust myself."

Lin Kaifeng smiled faintly and said, "I won't ask the city for a penny. I will help the city solve the employment problems of some of the educated youth who return to the city every year."

"In full and in full, a certain amount of income shall be turned over to the city on a regular basis."

“We will not fire workers at will and will ensure their welfare benefits.”

“Make due contributions to generating foreign exchange and increasing tax revenue locally.”

"There is no problem in becoming a role model for large and small collectives and social enterprises."

Lin Kaifeng repeated the conditions he promised to the city in one breath.

In a word, none of it matters.

After thinking for a while, Fang Boyan added: "The lack of supervision from above does not mean that you can do whatever you want."

"Abiding by the law comes first at all times."

"You are both technically savvy and have lots of clever ideas."

"Remember, use your tricks in the right way. Don't think you are just a little smart and start going down the wrong path."

"If I find out, your factory's products appear on the black market."

"If others don't deal with you, I, Fang Boyan, will personally send you, the factory leaders, to jail!"

Economic reform is the general direction, but it does not mean that everything must change accordingly.

The planned economy has come to an end.

The era when the whole country is like a chessboard and state-owned enterprises eat from one pot may end at any time.

But remember.

Just because it could end at any time doesn’t mean it’s over now.

The ticket system continues.

The goods of collective enterprises can be sold to state-owned enterprises, foreign investors and individuals.

But it must never be sold on the black market.

Take advantage of price differences to obtain high returns.

"Leader, please allow me to express my opinion on behalf of the County Machinery Factory."

“If any of the goods really do flow into the black market, I will be the first to disagree.”

Lin Kaifeng assured with a resounding voice: "As long as you ensure that our factory produces and sells its own products, I can ensure that the market is adequately supplied. How can ordinary people go to the black market to pay a high price for something that can be bought at a normal price in the market?"

"Do you think this is true?"

Fang Boyan nodded, this was indeed the truth.

But we still have to strike when we need to.

I have been a leader for so many years.

Fang Boyan knows very well that the greater the personal power, the bolder he will become.

A moment of silence.

Fang Boyan made some adjustments.

In terms of production materials, the county machinery factory can contact other factories on its own.

Buy their supplies.

If a factory demands exorbitant amounts of money and makes things difficult for the county machinery factory on some pretext, they can come to Fang Boyan for help.

"Go back, do a good job of propaganda and mobilization, and take this first step well."

We should open up a little bit of the loopholes and allow county machinery factories to produce and sell their own products.

When selling goods, the county machinery factory has the final say on whether to collect invoices or not.

The city will send people to the machinery factory for inspection regularly.

There will inevitably be a flow of goods to the black market, where production materials will be resold.

Problems such as abusing sales rights and enriching oneself arise.

As for whether saying this will steal business from state-owned enterprises.

It's possible, but it's not a big problem.

State-owned enterprises can obtain means of production at close to cost price through planned allocation.

On the other hand, the machinery factory.

Production materials should be purchased at market prices or even at prices higher than market prices.

Just this point.

They may shake the jobs of large municipal and ministry-owned enterprises.

Plus the scale of funds, personnel composition, and unified purchase and sales of goods.

The only enterprises that can be affected by the county machinery factory are large and small collectives and social-run enterprises that are neither industrial nor agricultural.

What does it matter if they are affected?

Arrange the county machinery factory to take the first step in restructuring and serve as an innovation pilot for burden enterprises.

Isn’t the purpose to touch them?

"Leader, now that you have made your request, can you also allow our factory to make a few small requests?"

"Go ahead."

Fang Boyan was not surprised at all, as he expected that the county machinery factory would definitely make demands.

Lin Kaifeng smiled and said, "Leader, our factory doesn't have many requirements, just four in total."

"First, give us a specific time for the placement of educated youth."

“For example, after five years, our factory will stop placing educated youth.”

"For example, if educated youth or other young workers have caused public outrage and other dissatisfaction due to various problems such as performance, can we transfer them to other positions? Or directly return them to the city resettlement office?"

"can."

Fang Boyan agreed to take five years as the time period.

The large-scale return of educated youth to the city has only happened in the past two years.

Five years later.

I guess the wave of returning to the city has ended.

No rules no standards.

For those problematic employees who are passive and slacking off at work every day, they can be transferred to other positions.

Those who fail to change after repeated admonitions will be returned to the city and made alternative arrangements.

Seeing this, Lin Kaifeng asked again: "Can the name of our factory be changed?"

"Since it has changed from a state-owned enterprise to a collective enterprise, it is somewhat inappropriate to call it a county machinery factory."

"What name do you want to change to?"

Fang Boyan asked.

"Northern Machinery Company, what do you think?"

"Northern Machinery Company..."

Fang Boyan muttered to himself and nodded, "Okay."

"What about the third one?"

"Give us the approval of the planned production materials at last."

"can."

Establishing rules and changing factory names are normal things.

Fang Boyan didn't feel that it was too much to ask for the final approval of the planned materials.

The separation order will be issued soon.

As parents, it is natural for them to give some money for the separation of the family property.

"Thank you, leader. The fourth item is to help our county machinery... No, no, no, help our Northern Machinery Company get an invitation to this year's spring trade fair so that we can set up a booth."

"Okay, I'll give it to you in a minute..."

"You guys are going to the Spring Canton Fair?!"

Fang Boyan stood up suddenly, his expression becoming complicated.

The first three are understatements.

The fourth one almost choked me to death.
