Chapter 218 (two chapters in one)

  Li Weidong is not in a hurry to purchase a large number of parts.

  In 1988, price breakthroughs caused the prices of various commodities across the country to skyrocket. The country also realized this and began to rectify the overall economic order.

In 1989, the state adopted more resolute control measures, tightening fiscal and credit expenditures, controlling currency issuance, controlling credit scale, reducing infrastructure investment, adjusting economic structure, controlling residents’ income growth, and restraining Excessive consumer demand.

  After these series of measures were taken, they did succeed in stopping price increases and helping China to survive the economically difficult years.

  So in the next two years, prices will be relatively stable, so there is no rush to purchase parts and components.

  The next price increase will have to wait until 1993, and there are still four years away from now.

  Li Weidong’s next plan is to expand the electric furnace plant.

  To be a labor-intensive industry, a certain scale is required. The expansion of production scale can also reduce production costs. Of course, this is based on effective management.

  The electric furnace factory now has more than 250 workers. Li Weidong does not think that this person can complete the 400,000 toaster order. Therefore, the expansion of the electric furnace factory is imperative.

  Li Weidong intends to build a few more factories, and then recruit 250 workers, bringing the scale of the electric furnace factory to 500 people.

  In the manufacturing industry, companies with more than 300 employees are already regarded as medium-sized companies.

  In order to expand the electric furnace factory, Li Weidong went to the town again and asked for a few acres of land around the electric furnace factory.

The town is also very happy to see the expansion of the electric furnace factory. One is that the expanded electric furnace factory can generate more taxes; the second is that the expanded electric furnace factory will recruit more workers to solve the employment problem for the town. .

Recruiting 250 more workers means that 250 families can get rid of poverty and go to the road to prosperity. Poverty is still very important to the government at the township level, and the town is also very happy to give a lot to this. Acres of land.

  ……

  At the same time, Guo Yunyuan is talking on the phone with his colleagues in the high-temperature component factory.

"Hey, Lao Zhang, is there any news about what I asked you last time? Yes, it's still an order matter? Oh, your factory did not receive a big order for heating rods! Okay, I get it, thank you! Go back Come to Qinghe, let's have a good drink."

  Guo Yunyuan put down the phone and let out a sigh of relief.

   "This Li Weidong did not go to other manufacturers to purchase heating rods! He is really calm enough." Guo Yunyuan said to himself.

  400,000 toasters require at least 2.4 million heating rods. This is a huge order for any manufacturer of high-temperature components.

  And this kind of huge order, any manufacturer receives it, there is no way to conceal it. Guo Yunyuan only needs to make a phone call to know who has received the big order for the heating rod.

  Nowadays, all high-temperature component manufacturers have not received orders for heating rods, which means that Li Weidong did not go to other manufacturers to buy heating rods.

  For Guo Yunyuan, there are good and bad things. The good news is that the order for 2.4 million heating rods is still there.

  The bad news is that Li Weidong can really calm down, and he has no intention of compromising.

   "This young man, why is your temper so stubborn? You have already won orders of hundreds of millions of dollars. What about giving me more than 2 million profits?" Guo Yunyuan said to himself.

  At this moment, a knock on the door sounded, and his men walked in.

   "Mr. Guo, the person who I sent to the Yangzhen Electric Furnace Factory to inquire about the news is back." The subordinate said.

   "What's the situation at the electric furnace factory? Without our heating rods, they should not be able to continue production, right?" Guo Yunyuan asked.

  'S subordinate nodded: "There is no production at the electric furnace factory, and depending on the situation, they will not be able to produce within this month."

   "Stance? What kind of stance?" Guo Yunyuan asked.

"The electric furnace factory is building a factory, and several villages in Xiangyang Town have gone to more than two hundred strong laborers, plus the original workers in their factory, there are almost four to five hundred people working there. I estimate five The month can't finish the work." The subordinate said.

  "With an order for 400,000 toasters in his hand, instead of going to production, but building a factory, what kind of routine is this?" Guo Yunyuan suddenly became confused.

  ……

  You don’t need to find a professional construction team to build houses in rural areas. You can directly greet a large group of farmers to build houses.

  At that time, the farmers in the countryside knew some construction work, such as cement, bricklaying, tile laying, carpentry, etc. Although not very proficient in these construction sites, they all knew a little bit.

  The workers in the electric furnace factory are all farmers. They work on the construction site, but they can’t be overwhelmed. Since there are no production tasks in the factory, everyone is happy to go to the site to move bricks and earn an extra salary.

  The earliest generation of migrant workers in China still have very simple values. Many people just have a job. You can work in the factory, or move bricks on the construction site. Anyway, you work hard. As long as you can make money, you don’t take jobs at all.

  For later generations, arranging the workers on the assembly line to move the bricks is simply impossible, so don’t give money!

   Later generations of young men who enter the factory to work, there is a knowledge contest on the front line of the factory to answer three consecutive questions, do you have night shifts in your factory? How are your factory female workers? Does your dormitory have WIFI? What? Does the dormitory even have WIFI? Whoever loves to look for whom, the uncle is not waiting for you! Leave!

  ……

  Ma Zhongyi was supervising work on the construction site, but was called into the office by Li Weidong.

  At the door of the office, Ma Zhongyi did not enter the door. Instead, he slapped the dust on his body with a towel. At the same time, he rushed inside and asked: "Weidong, what are you looking for?"

   "Brother Marco, come in quickly and sign." Li Weidong pointed to a document in front of him.

  Ma Zhongyi walked into the house, picked up his pen, and just about to sign, he saw the title of the document with the words "Equity Transfer Agreement".

  Ma Zhongyi looked at the content again, his face suddenly changed, and he asked, "Weidong, what do you mean?"

   "Brother Marco, this electric furnace factory was built by you little by little, and production depends on you on weekdays. You can accept this 3% of the shares!" Li Weidong said.

"That won't work, I can't ask for the shares! You built this electric furnace factory with your money. You took out the products, and you found the sales. After all, I didn't do anything. How could I ask for your shares? "

Ma Zhongyi shook his head, and then said: "And you also paid me a salary, several hundred quick wages a month, a batch of orders and bonuses, more than our mayor earned! I also bought I have a motorcycle, a color TV, a refrigerator, and a washing machine at home. I'm quite satisfied."

   "Brother Ma, you really didn't participate in the operation of this enterprise, but in terms of enterprise production, you rely on you to maintain it. For this alone, you have to take shares!" Li Weidong persuaded.

  "Isn't this all what I should do! Moreover, Ma Zhongyi has no abilities and can manage production. The work I do is not worthy of you giving me shares." Ma Zhongyi continued to refuse.

   "Brother Ma, look at Wang Kaiping, don’t you also take 3% of the shares? You don’t usually contribute less to the factory than Wang Kaiping. Taking 3% of the shares is a matter of course."

  Li Weidong's voice paused, and then he said: "Wang Kaiping is my dad's apprentice. I regard him as a brother, and he also regards me as a brother. I gave him the lone grave in the factory.

  Brother Marco, we have been together for two years, right? Li Weidong treats you as his brother. If you treat me Li Weidong as a brother, you will receive the 3% of the shares! "

  At this point, Ma Zhongyi only felt hot in his heart. Ma Zhongyi was originally a man of empathy and loyalty. Since Li Weidong regards himself as his brother, what else can be said!

  So Ma Zhongyi picked up the pen and signed his name on the "Share Transfer Agreement."

  ……

  Although Ma Zhongyi was born as a farmer, he is definitely the number one capable man in Xiangyang Town. After observing for a period of time, Li Weidong discovered that Ma Zhongyi is a man, he is fair and loyal, and the workers are very convinced of Ma Zhongyi. And Ma Zhongyi has also managed the electric furnace factory in an orderly manner, and there is no problem in terms of ability.

  Ma Zhongyi’s character cannot be a good entrepreneur, but he is definitely a good factory manager. Li Weidong's men are short of such a talent.

As far as factory management is concerned, the United States, Europe, and Japan all have scientific management models. In the 1980s and 1990s, Japanese corporate management was highly respected. Many management-related courses used Japanese corporate management models. Cases and research objects.

  However, scientific management is aimed at workers with a certain degree of culture. If the other party is illiterate or quasi-illiterate, the so-called advanced management methods in developed countries are basically useless.

  Managing a group of farmers with a low level of education depends on managers from the countryside like Ma Zhongyi. At this stage, it is impossible for Li Weidong to find a more senior manager.

  Based on China's national conditions at that time, Li Weidong will need to rely on these workers with low levels of education for a long time in the future, and he will also need to rely on people like Ma Zhongyi for management.

  So for the future development of the enterprise, Li Weidong must also take Ma Zhongyi under his command. The best way to win over talents is naturally to give shares. This method has been used for hundreds of years since the Ming and Qing dynasties, and it has been tried repeatedly.

Watching Ma Zhongyi sign his name on the "Equity Transfer Agreement", Li Weidong smiled slightly and said, "Brother Ma, from now on, you are the owner of our factory, and this electric furnace factory can become ours. Own business!"

   "Wei Dong, what you said, do you treat me as an outsider?" Ma Zhongyi said teasingly.

  Li Weidong went on to say: "Brother Ma, since this is our own business, there are a few words of heart-warming words, I will say it here."

  Ma Zhongyi knew that Li Weidong was going to say something important, and immediately put on a straight face.

Li Weidong continued: "Brother Marco, when the new factory building is completed, our factory will have to recruit workers. I have promised the town. This time, only people from all villages in Xiangyang Town will be recruited. No other towns will be recruited. The village knows better that you are still responsible for this recruitment.

  At that time, try to pick some honest people as far as possible. It doesn't matter if the education level is lower. As long as you are obedient and work hard, we don’t want to commit crimes. Also, I guess someone will come to you to go through the back door. Then you will have to check it out. If you are really able to work, let's stay. If you want to come and mess around, we will leave as soon as possible! "

Ma Zhongyi nodded very seriously: "Weidong, don't worry about this. I know all the people from the ten miles and eight townships very well. I know who is a lazy man and who is a **** in which village, I just ask. At that time, we will definitely not let people who make up their numbers enter our factory!"

Li Weidong then ordered: "There is one more thing. In the future, the scale of our factory will become larger. You are afraid that you will not be able to manage all aspects. Look at the old employees and see if there are any more clever and convincing people. Choose a few. Give them a promotion and let them give you a start. It’s also time for us to start building a management team."

   "Okay, there are really a few suitable candidates in my place. Looking back, I'm watching carefully and picking out a few people." Ma Zhongyi replied.

  ……

  In a blink of an eye, it was the beginning of June, and it was the mang seed season.

  Guo Yunyuan has been waiting for the order from the electric furnace factory, but after waiting for a month, Li Weidong showed no sign of compromise.

   Throughout May, the electric furnace factory has been busy building a new plant, and production has been completely ignored.

  Guo Yunyuan felt that Li Weidong had forgotten the order for the 400,000 toasters. Guo Yunyuan even wanted to call in person to remind Li Weidong, your 400,000 toasters, but none of them have been produced yet!

  Finally, Guo Yunyuan couldn't help himself. After all, this is an order for 2.4 million heating rods. If this order is taken, it will be enough for the high-temperature component factory to eat and drink for a while.

  So Guo Yunyuan personally came to the Xiangyang Town Electric Furnace Factory.

  However, the door of the electric furnace factory was closed, and there was no sound inside, making it extremely quiet.

  "Didn't it mean that a new factory is being built? How come there is no movement?" Guo Yunyuan got out of the car, walked to the door, and looked inside through the crack of the door.

   "Wow, woof, woof..." A dog barking sounded, and the gray-headed and earth-faced heard someone outside, and they barked at the gate.

  Although the two dry rice dogs have not eaten enough, they are still unambiguous when watching the door.

  Hearing the barking of the dog, the janitor walked out of the concierge carrying a pot and a pipe.

   "Who are you looking for?" The janitor said to Guo Yunyuan outside the crack of the door.

  The pungent smell of dry smoke immediately made Guo Yunyuan a feeling of suffocation, which is really too high!

  Guo Yunyuan took a step back, and then he said, "I’m from the high-temperature component factory, come to you, Director Li!"

   "Director Li is not there." The janitor shook his head.

   "It's okay to find the manager of the horse." Guo Yunyuan continued.

  "Director Ma is also not there," the janitor replied.

   "What about Accountant Wang?" Guo Yunyuan continued to ask.

   "Accounting Wang is not here either!" The janitor replied.

  Guo Yunyuan was a little discouraged, so he had to ask: "Who is in charge of your factory?"

   "No more!" The uncle janitor continued; "Apart from me, only the security department is on duty."

   "Where is that person?" Guo Yunyuan paused, and then asked: "Could your factory be closed down?"

   "Your factory just closed down!" The janitor said angrily, and then said; "The people in the factory have all gone back to the village to harvest wheat on holiday, and they will have to come back next week at the earliest!"

  Guo Yun-won is once again confused!

"What's the situation? Go back to the village to harvest wheat? Isn't it production? That's an order for more than 20 million US dollars! Don't you plan to take it? How much wheat can you buy for more than 20 million US dollars? The more than ten thousand dollars are ignored, is it not clear which one is more important?

  No production arrangements are made at this time, and workers are asked to go home on holiday to harvest wheat. Is this Li Weidong a naive person? How did you go to the Canton Fair just like that? How did you get a 20 million US dollar foreign trade order? Are foreigners so easy to cheat these days?

  Even if Li Weidong is naïve, isn’t Ma Zhongyi also naïve? And that accountant Wang, a person who settles accounts shouldn't be naive, right? Why don't they persuade a few words! My goodness, what kind of factory is this! "

  ……

  The first weekend after the Dragon Boat Festival.

Li Weidong got up from the bed and came to the dining table after washing. He picked up a zongzi and looked at the knot on it. Some disliked it and put it back. Then he picked up the second zongzi and looked at the rope as well. Knot, put it back again.

   "Mom, why are these rice dumplings made of red bean paste, and there are no candied dates?" Li Weidong shouted.

   "Originally there were two candied dates, they should have been eaten by your brother." Zhou Yunxiu's voice sounded.

   "Hey, the bean paste is not as sweet as candied dates." Li Weidong disgusted and picked up the bean paste and meat dumplings, and reluctantly peeled off the leaves.

  Zhou Yunxiu walked over with a small plate of sugar, and said, "If you don’t think it is too sweet, I will eat it with the sugar."

  Seeing a plate of white sugar, Li Weidong smiled immediately. The sticky glutinous rice dipped in white sugar is still delicious, not worse than candied date dumplings.

  Li Weidong was eating rice dumplings when the phone bell suddenly rang.

  Like a big boss like Li Weidong, of course, a phone must be installed at home. When fashioning a telephone, it costs 3,000 yuan, which is equivalent to two years' wages as an ordinary worker, and the average family can’t afford a telephone.

  Li Weidong wiped his hands, walked to the phone, and answered.

   "Hey, is it Director Li?" the other party asked.

   "It's the horse!" Li Weidong continued: "Did you have no rest this weekend? They have all come to my house. Any instructions?"

   "I don't have time to rest now! Something big happened!" Ma Dexing said.

   "Sure enough, it's coming!" Li Weidong secretly said in his heart, but knowingly asked: "Director Ma, what happened?"

   "Why do I listen to you a little gloating!" Ma Dexing said.

"How dare I!" Li Weidong chuckled, and then said; "I am a small commoner, and I have never been a soldier. I am not even counted as a reserve service. Even if I fight a war, it is not my turn to go first! Of course, if the country needs it. If I go to the battlefield, I will definitely fight the invaders to the end!"

Ma Dexing continued anxiously: "If I remember correctly, did you sign an order of 22 million US dollars at the Canton Fair? Of which 16 million are toasters and 6 million are air fryer! I'll ask you whether you panic now?"

   "Have Wal-Mart and Costco returned the goods too?" Li Weidong asked immediately.

   "This is not true, but it should be fast." Ma Dexing said.

   "This is really bad news. A business of more than 22 million dollars seems to be going bad!" Li Weidong said calmly.

"Isn't it going to be pornographic! I'm so anxious! There are two bubbles on my anxious mouth!" Ma Dexing changed his voice, and then said: "No, I listen to your tone, it seems that I am not anxious at all! "

   "I am also anxious." Li Weidong's tone remained calm.

   "I didn't know where you were anxious!" Ma Dexing replied.

   "It's like this, I just finished eating zongzi, we have a saying here, just after eating zongzi, you can't be anxious or angry, otherwise the intestines will stick together." Li Weidong replied.

"I said Director Li, I think you are really not in a hurry! At this time, are you still thinking about eating zongzi and sticking to your intestines? How big is your family business? Two thousand. An order of two million US dollars is replaced by more than one billion yuan, and it seems to be gone!" Ma Dexing said angrily.

   "Mother wants... um... yes, I can't make decisions about this kind of thing, is it useful to be anxious?"

Li Weidong originally wanted to say "My mother is going to marry", but the old man Li Dengke was walking out of the bathroom. Li Weidong said to his father that if my mother was going to marry, the old man would slap himself, so he stopped quickly. Stop talking.

On the phone, Ma Dexing became more and more anxious. He said: "You really have a big heart. If you lose more than a billion, just say "Is it useful to be in a hurry?" It is not your money that is lost! You drank too much. It’s still Li Bai’s "Will Into the Wine" that I watched too much, and I really thought it would come back after all the money was gone!"

"Look at what you said, what kind of wine should I drink this morning!" Li Weidong smiled, and then said: "Director Ma, you can think from another angle, foreign businessmen don’t want goods, that’s a breach of contract, breach of contract. If so, the deposit previously paid by the foreign businessman is ours! This is a waste of money!"

   "The deposit? How much can that be? Can it be worth more than 20 million orders?" Ma Dexing said disdainfully.

"Director Ma, I signed the contract between Wal-Mart and Costco, and the deposit is 50%. That is to say, the business of 22 million yuan will make 11 million yuan in vain. I think this is quite a lot. Hey, Ma Chief, are you listening?" Li Weidong said.

  On the other side of the phone, Ma Dexing fell into a long silence.
