Rebirth in 1960, My Industrial Age

Chapter 288: You proposed this? (Subscribe)

Zhou Xianyang left with satisfaction only after watching Zhou Fengnian call Mr. Bai and Bai Yujie.

As for the gifts for the visitors, Zhou Xianyang plans to buy them himself, but his family will have to support him with some tickets.

Zhou Xianyang is now an expert at making money, and he has realized what his father said: knowledge is money.

There is not much work now, and it does not interfere with their classes, but Zhou Xianyang can still earn three to four thousand yuan every month.

Although he only paid his classmates 80 yuan a month, he would also give them an extra 20 or 30 yuan. In terms of management, they were almost learning the benefits of the Shenzhou Computer Factory.

Now Zhou Xianyang wants to make this business bigger, so he also asked Zhou Fengnian how it will develop in the future.

However, Zhou Fengnian had only one answer: Don’t be too ambitious, learn what you learned in university first.

It is difficult for Zhou Fengnian to predict how the domestic Internet will develop in three or four years, but now Ame is already considering national interconnection and has extended an invitation to China.

They wanted Zhou Fengnian to participate in the formulation of standard network protocols.

After seeing the invitation, Zhou Fengnian almost threw it into the trash can.

Last time, it was the deputy leader who acted as his 'bodyguard', and only because he was with the leader did Zhou Fengnian dare to go.

If he is asked to lead a team there now, forget it, as he may only go abroad once in his life; however, Zhou Fengnian hopes that the next time he goes abroad, he will go with the troops.

However, he can allow others to participate in the formulation of international network standards. Unless they are scientists with particularly important status like him, Amei will not use any tricks.

After setting the standards, people will be allowed to come back. Now the Internet at home and abroad is on the starting line, but China is a "computer power". Although it is a major exporting country, its computer strength is strong.

Moreover, the share of Shenzhou Computer in the overseas computer market is still expanding step by step, and the formulation of Internet protocol standards cannot be done without China.

It is now the beginning of August 1, and by the end of the year, the Internet in the old city will be almost established.

The individual group organized by Zhou Xianyang is expected to get a big piece of meat.

However, although Zhou Xianyang earned a lot, it was all money, and it was not easy to get tickets, so he had to ask Zhou Fengnian for help.

Now the Zhou family has more tickets than can be used up. Whether it is grain tickets or meat tickets, the supply has not only been restored, but has also been increased by 20% compared to the previous peak.

Not to mention a family like Zhou Fengnian's. Both husband and wife go to work and often eat in the cafeteria, and only eat at home in the morning and evening.

Basically, there are all kinds of tickets. Even if you want foreign exchange coupons, you can get a batch of them. Bai Qingan's grandfather works in the Foreign Trade Department, so they have the most foreign exchange coupons.

When Zhou Fengnian was talking to Mr. Bai just now, he also asked about the trade document handed over by the Ministry of Foreign Trade for the purchase of lithography machines, integrated circuit technology and supporting equipment.

However, Mr. Bai was not sure either, but he promised Zhou Fengnian that he would investigate it.

In the afternoon, Zhou Fengnian asked Wang Mingjie to go to the Ministry of Light Industry to help him find a list of engineers, and the large-scale relocation of home appliance factories was finalized.

The next step is for the Ministry of Light Industry to get ready, and then Zhou Fengnian will complete the technical upgrades.

This is not difficult for him, he can even teach people directly.

At that time, we will make some finished products in Sijiu City, and then build a factory in Shenzhen for export.

In order to develop the special zone, the leaders also worked hard. In the front, there was the Shenzhou Computer Branch, and then ten electrical appliance factories came later.

If these dozen factories move there, together with the supporting factories, it would be strange if Shenzhen does not develop.

It is estimated that it will become a standard city within three years and become the number one city in Guangdong within eight years.

Zhou Fengnian will only be responsible for technical support. In the future, the export of home appliances will become larger and larger, and even more and more families in China will be able to afford electrical appliances.

Originally, they had the world's first integrated chip, which made it easy for them to manufacture smart home appliances; but those people were too disappointing, especially the washing machine factory.

We were still able to export in the past few years, but the export share became smaller and smaller. In the past two years, we have been unable to export at all and can only barely maintain revenue by selling domestically.

If Zhou Fengnian didn't want to see a lot of laid-off workers in a few years, he wouldn't have cleaned up the mess for them.

The management of state-owned factories now have some problems to varying degrees. They have too many production tasks and don’t know how to compete with others. If they don’t have any technological advantages, they will be doomed if they are released.

In the evening, Zhou Fengnian went home early today. He didn't see Zhou Xianyang when he came back, but his wife asked him after seeing him: "Xianyang came back today and asked for some tickets. He said he wanted to buy something. Do you know what he has been doing recently?"

"Didn't he tell you? He was planning on buying a door-to-door gift."

Zhou Fengnian said casually: "When he came to my office today, he suddenly thought about getting married. He was so anxious that I even suspected that he had given me a grandson.

Later, he watched me call Bai Yujie and Mr. Bai, and then he left with satisfaction. "

"By the way, they're coming over next Sunday. I'll call my parents later and ask them to come over as well."

Zhou Yan was delighted when she heard this, and immediately said with a smile: "This brat didn't tell me in advance, no wonder Sister Yujie looked so weird today, and even asked me to come back and ask Xianyang.
But what should we do about the marriage of the two children? Xianyang is still three years younger. "

"Why not get engaged first and get the marriage certificate in a few years? Anyway, our family is not afraid of being reported by others. As long as they don't have promiscuous relationships, no one can do anything to them."

Zhou Fengnian said casually, then looked at Zhou Yan and asked: "What are we having for dinner tonight?"

"Let's have some noodles with soybean paste. Your two daughters want some."

"also."

Gong Lin’s cooking skills are okay, although not as good as Zhou Fengnian’s, but over the years, she has adjusted the taste of their family’s food.

After returning home, Zhou Fengnian became a little lazy. After his cooking skills improved, he didn't want to do much. As long as he didn't have to work, he would accept anything to eat.

During the meal, Zhou Yan couldn't help but nagging about her two daughters' studies. She talked about it more and more frequently, and Zhou Fengnian had already trained himself to let it go in one ear and out the other.

It doesn't matter if my second daughter doesn't do well in school. She can just graduate from high school and do whatever she wants.

The key point is that the younger daughter's grades are also terrible. She has just entered elementary school, but her performance is no worse than Zhou Yiyi. This is what makes Zhou Yan complain non-stop.

Not long after, Zhou Fengnian quickly finished his meal and prepared to go to the study room to hide, but as soon as he stood up, Zhou Yan called him: "Fengnian, you have to take care of the grades of your two daughters. You can't let them have it easy anymore."

Zhou Fengnian was at a loss, so he pretended to be serious and said, "Indeed, you two should come to my study after dinner. I will definitely give you a good scolding this time!"

It seems that his intelligence was passed on to his son, while his two daughters did not inherit any. However, it is hard to say whether Zhou Fengnian is smart or not. Anyway, he works hard and shows a lot of intelligence.

After a while, after the two daughters hid in the study, Zhou Fengnian first urged them to study hard.

After avoiding Zhou Yan's first round of inspection, the two girls started reading picture books or comic books. Anyway, they didn't study anymore.

Zhou Fengnian ignored them and was studying the technological innovation of intelligent home appliances. They already had the foundation for realizing intelligent home appliances, and the next step was to develop and manufacture them.

If the Guangdong Special Economic Zone is established, it will indeed be a good place for the development of industrial clusters, and the next ten years will definitely be a golden moment for exports.

Even with the technological innovation provided by Zhou Fengnian, if it still results in negative benefits and causes workers to be laid off, Zhou Fengnian will report it to his superiors and ask the secretary-general to investigate.

Someone must be corrupt!

------

Less than a week.

In his spare time, Zhou Fengnian created a variable-speed fully intelligent washing machine in the Ministry of Light Industry.

Of course, most of them were made by others under his direction. He did not have that much time to make such a small gadget, so he was the one who gave the final approval.

Operating it feels like operating a computer. It not only has the function of speed adjustment, but also has more function relay than washing machines in other countries, with low noise and vibration.

Basically, you put the dirty clothes in, and after a while you can take out a semi-dry clean piece of clothing.

Several other engineers from the Ministry of Light Industry who were called by Zhou Fengnian gathered around this intelligent washing machine and marveled at its effects.

They all understood the technical principles and could make them, but they had never thought of using some of the computer's capabilities on home appliances.

One person shook his head and said: "I didn't expect that the washing machine could be turned on so early. Some... some"

"It's a bit redundant, isn't it?"

When Zhou Fengnian and Han Yunliang came over, they heard what the engineer said and said to him, "Mr. Xie, our goal is to export. Foreigners are picky. If we don't give them more functions, they will think it is a defective product.

This type of washing machine is not used in China, and most people may think it wastes electricity, but foreigners don’t think so. ”

There are also several washing machine factories in the country. If Zhou Fengnian really competes with them, he can squeeze them out, but this is not his intention.

"We have the technical foundation to realize intelligent home appliances. We just need to develop in this direction. This washing machine is just one of them."

Zhou Fengnian was talking about microprocessors, which can enable home appliances to run more complex functions.

After that, Zhou Fengnian turned to Han Yunliang and said, "Comrade Yunliang, my mission is almost complete. The remaining technological innovation will take some time to complete. By then, you..."

"Industrial relocation is not an easy task. We are lucky if we can accomplish it within a year, Comrade Fengnian."

When talking about this matter, Han Yunliang felt a headache, as he was originally against this situation.

Right now the negotiations with local governments alone have not been completed, and it would be ideal to do so within a year.

What he is thinking of now is to follow the example of the Shenzhou Computer Factory and not relocate anymore, but to build a new factory directly in the local area.

Although the original factory was reduced in size, it was at least preserved, with only some equipment and workers moved there.

Zhou Fengnian said: "Anyway, these matters are up to you. It's not easy for us either. We also need to move some computer factories and semiconductor production factories over there."

Now, Beijing and the Northeast are well-deserved economic centers, but after opening up, they will gradually shift to the south.

After staying for a while, Zhou Fengnian said goodbye to Han Yunliang and left. He had something to do in the afternoon and could not stay here for too long.

Moreover, Zhou Fengnian had almost completed all of his responsibilities and tasks, so there was no need for him to stay any longer.

Today is Saturday. Tomorrow, several people from the Bai family will come to our house for dinner and discuss matters concerning the two children.

When the time comes, come to Zhou Fengnian's place. He has a big yard, and Mr. Bai didn't have a small building for senior cadres, so so many people couldn't sit in his house.

Zhou Yan specifically told him yesterday to go back early today.

Zhou Fengnian had just returned to the department and hadn't even sat down when Wang Mingjie knocked on the door and came in to report to him:
"Leader, Deputy Leader You from the Foreign Trade Department will be here soon. He said he wants to see you about something."

"Deputy Leader You? You Lijun? Why did he come to see me?"

Zhou Fengnian was stunned when he heard this. He had never dealt with You Lijun, and he didn't need to go to him for foreign trade issues. Wouldn't it be enough to let the director and deputy director directly connect with the factory?

In the past, several foreign trade missions were coordinated with factories and reported to the ministries afterwards.

He showed up suddenly and didn't know the rules.

But he was a deputy minister in a ministry after all, so Zhou Fengnian had to save face, so he took out some good tea and asked Wang Mingjie to make some.

Not long after, Wang Mingjie knocked on the door again. This time, he was followed by a smiling man. He was slightly fat and had a smile on his face that showed he was trying to get closer to others.

"Comrade Lijun, welcome."

Zhou Fengnian smiled and stood up and said, "If you have anything to say, you can just give me a call. Why did you come here in person? Mingjie, make me some good tea."

The last time he saw You Lijun was at a ministry meeting last year; he could only say that he knew this person, but not very well.

There are dozens of ministries and commissions now, with hundreds of chief and deputy positions in total. It is already very good that Zhou Fengnian can remember all the names.

You Lijun smiled and said, "Some things can't be explained clearly over the phone, it's better to talk in person. Comrade Fengnian, this is Director Wang Hai."

Zhou Fengnian nodded and said, "Comrade Wang Hai, please sit down. Let's talk slowly."

The name seemed familiar, but Zhou Fengnian didn't think much about it. He had dealt with the Ministry of Foreign Trade quite a lot, so maybe he had heard it somewhere before.

After Wang Mingjie made tea and left the office, Zhou Fengnian asked, "Comrade Lijun, is there anything important that you came to see me about this time?"

"Indeed."

You Lijun nodded, then pointed at Wang Hai and said, "Some time ago, Director Wang Hai submitted a trade application to the Fourth Ministry of Machine Building, but it was rejected.

Later he mentioned it to me again, and I thought it would be good for us, at least we could introduce several technologies that were previously blocked, so I brought Director Wang Hai here."

Zhou Fengnian was startled, then asked, "What proposal? I've been busy with too many things recently, and I can't think of it for the moment."

Wang Hai received the signal at this time and interrupted and said, "Deputy Leader Zhou, it's about Germany and France wanting to use seven sets of technical equipment to introduce lithography machines and related process technologies."

"What? You suggested this?"

After hearing this, Zhou Fengnian's expression changed quickly.
