Rebirth in 1960, My Industrial Age

Chapter 323 My Party Spirit and Principles Are Strong (Subscription Request)
"Comrades, today's small meeting is to adjust the work, mainly Comrade Zhou Fengnian.

He is also responsible for a new research institute recently, so he needs comrades to help him share the work."

Gu Wenjie called Sun Gongran, Luo Yifeng, and several major department and bureau directors of the Fourth Ministry of Machine Building over and told them about this matter.

The others were surprised when they heard this. Except for Luo Yifeng and Gu Wenjie, no one understood why Zhou Fengnian did this.

He was in charge of very important factories in the ministry, commonly known as 'treasure buds'.

The Fourth Ministry of Machine Building was not very large and could not be compared with the First Ministry of Machine Building. After all, they were in charge of the electronic information industry, which gradually developed after the founding of the People's Republic of China.

Moreover, most of them were concentrated in Sijiu City, with a few in Yanhe or other places, and the one Zhou Fengnian was in charge of could be said to occupy half of the resources and glory of the Fourth Ministry of Machine Building.

No normal person would be willing to hand over the gold in his hand, but Zhou Fengnian took the initiative to ask him to do so. If he was not willing, no one could snatch these factories that he built from him.

"Well, I will assign some work next. Comrade Yifeng, you have been the liaison officer for the Shenzhou Computer Factory. I'll help you out this time."

"Comrade Gong Ran, I'm sorry to bother you with the UAV factory and the wireless communication factory. I need you to take care of this."

It is necessary to let Sun Gongran take some responsibilities, otherwise if everything is handed over to Luo Yifeng, he will start to form cliques after the news gets out.

What's more, the drone factory has troops following up, and Zhou Fengnian of the wireless communications factory has arranged a development plan, so Sun Gongran just needs to help keep an eye on it.

"And Director Gao and Director Liu, you can also help Comrade Fengnian share some of the work."

Gu Wenjie's words almost divided 80% of Zhou Fengnian's responsibilities, leaving only the semiconductor under his charge. The deputy leader of the Fourth Ministry of Machine Building always has to be in charge of something.

After hearing this, even Luo Yifeng felt a little surprised. Didn't this mean that he had handed over all the things in his hands?

Gu Wenjie continued, "Comrades, if you are unsure about something, you can discuss it with Comrade Fengnian.

By the way, he is still responsible for professional matters such as technology and manufacturing processes, and will follow up on the semi-annual summary, which is also Comrade Fengnian’s own request.”

"clear."

"I get it, but it's a good year, so you consider this as relaxing?"

Luo Yifeng asked with a smile, putting aside all the things in his hands at once, and he only looked at it once every six months, which was too comfortable.

Zhou Fengnian sighed and said, "Why relax? There is a new robotics research institute, and there will be more things to do in the future. It's a bit difficult to completely relax. I'm afraid I can only relax after I retire."

However, getting rid of a lot of things this time allowed Zhou Fengnian to relax.

Now all he has to do is supervise students and run the Robotics Research Institute. Other things are not very important. After he gives some advice, he can let Wang Mingjie follow up on his behalf.

After the internal meeting, we will call the directors and secretaries of these factories to meet with them and explain things clearly.

By the time all these things were done, it was almost time to get off work.

Zhou Fengnian suddenly felt relieved. From now on, apart from technology, he would no longer be responsible for those tedious matters, and he only needed to follow up once every six months to understand the development of the factory.

dong dong!

Wang Mingjie knocked on the door twice, then walked in and said to Zhou Fengnian, "Leader, someone wants to see you. He is Comrade Yang Tianbing from Changchun. He said he had already made an appointment with you yesterday."

"So soon? Let him in."

Zhou Fengnian said to Wang Mingjie that he was a little surprised. He said it would be delivered this afternoon?
The train from Northeast China to here is not that fast.

After Wang Mingjie brought the people in, Yang Tianbing was holding a stack of documents in his hands. After entering the room, he smiled and said to Zhou Fengnian: "Leader, I'm sorry to bother you. I will come here as soon as I get them."

Zhou Fengnian asked, "Comrade Tian Bing, you delivered it too quickly. Did you bring it here in advance?"

Yang Tianbing quickly shook his head and said, "No, no, I asked them to work overtime tonight and rush to deliver it before this afternoon."

"Okay, it's really efficient. Have a cup of tea first and I'll take a look."

After Zhou Fengnian finished speaking, he took the FAW information and started reading it.

Yang Tianbing had told him most of the things, and he could remember and understand the detailed data at a glance. After looking through some of them, he soon gained a new understanding of FAW Automobile Factory.

From this perspective, the former factory manager was indeed a gambler, but he lost the bet.

The strength is still there, especially in heavy trucks. The production line cannot be wasted, so the only thing to do is to change the production routine and try to live a simple life.

The ultimate energy saving and the main purpose of saving money are very popular in the current international market. Xiao Rizhuo relies on this to make their cars famous.

They can also make a living from this, and they cannot waste heavy trucks. As for the market, they can consider the second and third world countries.

Although some countries are poor, they can still produce some oil, so they do the "poor people's" business.

There are not many supporting manufacturing factories that need to be changed, and there is no need to follow those foreigners in Europe.

Zhou Fengnian watched for more than an hour, and he still didn't say anything even after the work time had passed.

Yang Tianbing had already drunk two pots of tea and went to the toilet four times, but apart from seeing Zhou Fengnian writing and drawing, he did not hear Zhou Fengnian calling him.

"Comrade Tian Bing."

"Leader, I'm here."

"Hey, it's almost dark? It's already this late."

Just when Zhou Fengnian was about to speak, he suddenly glanced out the window. Someone should have turned on the lights for him when he got off work, but he didn't notice.

"How about we find a place and talk while eating? It's time to eat. We work to fill our stomachs. We can't talk about work on an empty stomach."

In fact, Zhou Fengnian was hungry himself. He had been busy handing over work matters in the morning and afternoon, and he had not eaten well at noon.

Yang Tianbing quickly said, "Okay, leader, I know a place. I'll be the host today, and we must go to that restaurant to taste it."

"Okay, I'll leave it to you. I'll call home and let them know."

After Zhou Fengnian finished speaking, he picked up the phone and dialed. After Zhou Yan on the other end answered the call, he told her that he would not be going home for dinner that night.

"Let's go, Comrade Tian Bing, let's take a ride."

One meal is nothing. It is normal for people at their level to treat each other to a meal.

After the two got in the car, Yang Tianbing kept giving directions to the driver along the way, but Zhou Fengnian seemed to be more and more familiar with the way.

After seeing the sign of the First Restaurant, Zhou Fengnian smiled and said, "Comrade Tian Bing, is this the restaurant you are talking about?" "Yes, a friend came to Sijiucheng on a business trip a few years ago. He said that the food here is very delicious, and the chef can even cook Northeastern dishes well. Leader, don't be fooled by the small size of the restaurant."

Before Yang Tianbing finished speaking, Zhou Fengnian interrupted him with a smile and said, "Haha, of course I won't underestimate this restaurant, it's opened by my eldest brother.

He was previously the deputy director of the canteen at Huaxia Machine Tool Factory, and is now on leave to run a self-employed business."

Yang Tianbing was startled and said in surprise: "What a coincidence! I didn't expect it to be your elder brother, the leader. I didn't know this. Leader, I brought you here purely because I heard that the food here is delicious."

"It's okay, it's okay. Besides, my brother's cooking skills are really good. Let's just eat here."

After Zhou Fengnian finished speaking, he and Yang Tianbing walked into the hotel.

It was still lunchtime, and there were quite a few people. Sister-in-law Qu Ying was counting the bills. Zhou Fengnian walked to the front desk and said, "Sister-in-law."

Qu Ying looked up and saw Zhou Fengnian, then smiled and said, "Third brother, are you here to eat? The front is full, why don't you go to the quieter place in the back to eat? This is your friend, right?"

Zhou Fengnian said, "Yes, comrades from the Northeast, sister-in-law, it doesn't matter where we eat, just take us there."

"Okay, by the way, your eldest brother is on the other side, but I asked your eldest brother's apprentices to pay attention, he said that these apprentices are all ready to graduate."

Qu Ying said as he stood up and led the way, bringing Zhou Fengnian to a room in the backyard.

At first glance, this is a place to rest, but it is clean and quiet, with tables and chairs available.

After Qu Ying brought the menu, he waited until Zhou Fengnian and Yang Tianbing had ordered their dishes before going downstairs to have the food served.

After the people left, Yang Tianbing said with a smile: "Leader, the restaurant opened by your eldest brother seems to be very popular. When we came, there was a queue outside."

Zhou Fengnian nodded and said, “Well, the individual economy is getting better every year, and maybe in a few years joint ventures will not only be foreign-funded.

We will also consider private capital, and when the time comes, we will untie the factory and sell it to an individual for operation."

That is to restore the previous public-private partnership, and then state-owned assets will be gradually withdrawn from unimportant areas, focusing on important areas such as energy.

Zhou Weitian's restaurant is becoming more and more popular. At the beginning of the year, the restrictions on the number of employees were relaxed. He has been planning to open a large restaurant, similar to Fengzeyuan, and then a hot pot restaurant.

Recently Zhou Weitian has been looking for chefs everywhere, as long as they can manage the branch stores.

His two brothers and nephew would not miss any opportunity to expand, especially when they encountered policies they did not understand, they would come to Zhou Fengnian for advice.

It would be a waste if you didn't ask for advice from a relative who has great connections.

Yang Tianbing smiled and said: "Leader, you know what, there are many self-employed people in our area, but they are all small-scale businesses."

"There will be more and more in the future. Except for areas that must be controlled by the state, all other areas will definitely be dominated by the private sector."

Soon, the dishes they ordered were served. Qu Ying must have asked the kitchen staff to add more food, otherwise they wouldn't have been cooked so quickly.

Four dishes and one soup, it was considered a rich meal. Zhou Fengnian nodded after taking a bite. Although it was not as good as his elder brother Zhou Weitian, he was not a big foodie and could not taste the difference.

While eating and chatting, Zhou Fengnian gradually started talking to Yang Tianbing about their factory.

Then Zhou Fengnian told him all his ideas. Simply put, it was to strengthen their advantage of heavy trucks, and then transform to sedans on a small scale so as not to waste those production lines.

If those foreigners in Europe don't want them, they can sell them to other places. Even if small countries are poor, they will buy a few if they see cheap and affordable cars.

Although the purchasing power of a single country is weak, there are many such countries.

Once it is developed, it will become a new market.

"As expected of a leader, your vision and ideas are better than those of us!"

After listening to this, Yang Tianbing slapped his thigh and said, "I really want to toast you. It has made me see the way forward clearly. Leader,
It is the heavy truck technology that we do not have a strong advantage in international market, and also the transformation of sedan type."

"You, comrade with thick eyebrows and big eyes, first praised me and then waited for me here, Comrade Tian Bing."

Zhou Fengnian pointed with a smile, then sighed and said, "From a personal standpoint, you have helped me a lot. Now that you have come to me for help, I must help you if I can, but..."

Yang Tianbing suddenly interrupted, then leaned in and whispered, "Leader, I recently heard about a way. There is an old ginseng farmer in our area who wants to sell a nearly 100-year-old ginseng."

"What? A ginseng that's nearly a hundred years old?"

Zhou Fengnian was stunned when he heard this, and then immediately thought of several medicinal preparations of hundred-year-old ginseng. If this could be prepared, it would be a priceless treasure.

"How's the preservation going?"

Zhou Fengnian immediately forgot the topic he had just talked about and turned to ask about this matter.

Yang Tianbing gave a thumbs up and said, "He is a professional ginseng digger. I heard that he dug it out last year. It caused a sensation in the village at that time. Unfortunately, the ginseng farmer had no intention of selling it.

There has been a change this year, I asked someone to find out. Leader, guess what you said?"

"What about this poor mouth of mine?"

Zhou Fengnian immediately frowned and said, "Comrade Tian Bing, can I be bought with a ginseng? My party spirit and principles are beyond doubt and can withstand the test. Even my own son cannot shake my principles.
How could he be willing to sell it? Did you use any tricks?"

He remembered that the area was quite tough at that time, and Zhou Fengnian was afraid that Yang Tianbing would use some tricks to seize it by force.

"No, no, the old man has four sons, and he wanted to buy property for his sons. I asked someone to keep it when I heard the news. We have some connections in the local area."

Yang Tianbing said confidently that he hoped this would impress Zhou Fengnian and revive the factory.

As for FAW Automobile Factory, it does have the confidence. For a large factory of this size, the words of the mayor are almost more effective, and it is basically managed by the province and the ministry.

"Please keep an eye on it for me and don't bargain. I'll pay when the time comes."

Zhou Fengnian paused for a moment, then continued, "I have to talk to my superiors about my business trip to your place, and I also have to arrange my work.
But I'm going to FAW, and you have to listen to me when the time comes."

He really wanted to help, but he didn't want to agree before because he was too busy. But now that he has pushed most of the things out, he has some free time.

The Robotics Research Institute is also preparing for the exhibition, so his students don't have to learn from him every day. Another more important reason is that Zhou Fengnian doesn't want to see his own brand become a joint venture.

"Look at what you said, leader. When the time comes, I will be your soldier. I will fight wherever you point me!"

Yang Tianbing immediately said that he was not stupid, how could a deputy leader of the Fourth Ministry of Machine Building snatch his position as factory director.

Zhou Fengnian came to help save the factory. Only by revitalizing the car factory could he continue to be the factory director and continue to earn foreign exchange and make contributions.

Anyone who goes against Zhou Fengnian will ruin his future, and Yang Tianbing will definitely slap him in the face!
