1968: Started from breeding

Chapter 226: With the credit of earning foreign exchange this time, if you continue to suppress it, it will affect your future
Leave the meeting room.

Mayor Zhai took Su Wenchen and He Zhenbang back to the office.

The three of them just pushed open the wooden door and walked in.

He Zhenbang simply threw the meeting minutes book in his hand onto the mahogany desk in front of him.

Then he unbuttoned the top button of his Zhongshan suit.

"Damn it, I'm so pissed off. Those bastards in the city's textile industry don't dare to challenge Secretary Zhou every day, but they keep pushing us."

"They still want to register it directly under their names. They don't even use their rusty brains. How could Secretary Zhou agree to that?"

"They can't even figure this out, they deserve to be punished."

When Su Wenchen saw He Zhenbang come in, he sat down casually as if he had returned to his office.

Although he knew that the other party had a good relationship with Mayor Zhai, he didn't expect that the relationship was so good.

I saw Su Wenchen looking at me with some surprise.

He Zhenbang glanced sideways.

"What are you looking at? Go find a place to sit! Wait for Old Zhai to serve you!"

After hearing what He Zhenbang said, Mayor Zhai, who was pouring water nearby, also turned around.

"Xiao Su, take a seat first! Just like this hottie, just come to my place and be casual."

After hearing what Mayor Zhai said, Su Wenchen still found a place to sit, but he didn't do what He Zhenbang did, throwing away notebooks and unbuttoning his buttons.

If He Zhenbang dared to do this, it was either because they had a life-and-death friendship or because the two of them had a very good private relationship.

Or maybe you don't know the limits, and the outcome won't be good.

However, from the fact that He Zhenbang did not say anything that he shouldn't have said in the conference room just now, it can be seen that He Zhenbang is not the kind of person who has no idea of his proper place.

This meant that the two of them must have a very good personal relationship. Su Wenchen even felt that it was likely that they had a life-and-death friendship formed on the battlefield, otherwise they wouldn't be so carefree.

Over there, Zhai Shi was pouring water and talking to He Zhenbang.

"Do you think they can't figure it out? They are almost at their wits' end, especially since you have come up with an industry that can generate foreign exchange."

"If they lose the unique high-priority task of earning foreign exchange, they will probably be severely punished by Secretary Zhou! Now they can only try their best to save the situation."

"If I can really take on this foreign exchange earning task of yours, then not only will my capital increase, but Secretary Zhou will also be more cautious."

"Because if the foreign exchange rate declines seriously, the provincial government will intervene. After all, the provincial government also gets the lion's share of the country's share!"

Hearing Mayor Zhai's words, He Zhenbang curled his lips in disdain.

"They just want good things!"

"We worked so hard to come up with this foreign exchange earning project, and they want to reap the benefits?"

"If you want to expand your market share, do it yourself! How can you be considered a bargain? In the end, isn't it because your performance has been declining year after year?"

"If they increase their foreign exchange earnings tenfold, from 4-5 million to 50 million dollars a year, do you think Secretary Zhou would dare to say anything?"

"If they can make a hundred times as much and bring back 500 million US dollars a year, even people from the province will have to speak politely to them."

Hearing this, Mayor Zhai laughed unhappily.

"You still dare to think about it! If you can manage 500 million US dollars a year, you will indeed be a guest of honor in the province."

"No, if it really comes to this, I guess the province won't be able to keep him here!"

Su Wenchen nodded and agreed when he heard this.

"According to data released by the Ministry of Foreign Trade, the turnover of the Canton Fair last year was about US$200 million."

"Last year, the total export turnover of the country was about 3 billion US dollars. If it can really account for one sixth of the total turnover, it must be a key national industry."

Su Wenchen even felt that if the company could really reach this scale, it would probably be similar to vice-ministerial enterprises such as Anshan Iron and Steel Group.

After all, the export volume of one enterprise accounts for one-sixth of the country's total, and the profits are all in foreign exchange. The authorities will definitely not allow the local governments to control it alone.

Hearing Su Wenchen say this, He Zhenbang touched his chin.

"Is this the only number in the whole country? It seems that the city's textile industry is not that bad after all."

Hear what He Zhenbang said.

Mayor Zhai had already filled two enamel teacups with water from the tea table over there, and walked over to place a cup in front of Su Wenchen and He Zhenbang.

"What do you think? Otherwise, why would we have waited until now? Lao Li and I would have replaced the person over there a long time ago."

"Our Lan City Textile Factory is the only industry besides the provincial capital's bicycle factory that can earn foreign exchange on its own."

"And unlike bicycles exported to Asia, Africa and Latin America, the city's textile products are exported to Eastern and Western Europe. The foreign exchange earned can be used to purchase the necessary industrial equipment more easily there."

“So they are more important than the bicycle factory, otherwise I wouldn’t tolerate them again and again.”

"The city only has so much foreign exchange. If we lose it, it will be difficult for the city to develop in the future."

"But the new Secretary Zhou is not one to tolerate, especially since you guys also need to earn foreign exchange at this time."

"If you succeed, their uniqueness will be greatly reduced."

Su Wenchen held the teacup handed to him by Mayor Zhai, and after a moment of silence, he spoke directly.

"Zhai Mayor, you mean the textile industry in the city might be hindering our mission of earning foreign exchange."

Hearing that Su Wenchen understood what he meant, Mayor Zhai nodded with a smile.

"Yes, that's why I asked you to come here. No wonder you can breed the Moonlight Rabbit, a high-quality fur species that is comparable to the sable."

"It's much better than Lao He, this piece of wood."

After hearing what Mayor Zhai said, He Zhenbang just took a sip of water and immediately retorted in a bad mood.

"You can compliment me if you want, but why do you want to belittle me? What do you mean by wooden? I was just a little slow to react. Actually, I understood what you said a long time ago. I just cooperated with you on purpose to give the young man a chance to perform."

"Otherwise, it's always us old comrades who are showing off, and there won't be any chances for young people."

"But does the city's textile industry really have the guts to stop other industries in the city from earning foreign exchange?"

"Besides, the provincial government won't support this either! After all, the foreign exchange is used more in the province. Isn't this like cutting off one's own arm?"

Hearing what He Zhenbang said, Mayor Zhai sneered.

"Who can say for sure? After all, many departments don't need foreign exchange at all!"

"But they definitely don't dare to object openly. As for whether they will secretly stop us, I'm not sure, so I'm reminding you in advance."

"It's better to be prepared than to be caught off guard when the time comes."

"Otherwise, if you really encounter a problem, you will suffer if you are not prepared. It won't hurt to be more careful at this juncture."

Then he continued to speak to Su Wenchen.

"After you prepare the qualifications of the import and export company with the Municipal Foreign Trade Bureau, you can take the materials to the provincial government to apply."

"When you arrive in the provincial capital, go see the old secretary first."

"Although he is in charge of the province's agriculture now, he must know more about the situation in the province than we do now!"

"If he can come forward, the possibility of us being stuck with procedures in the province will be much less."

When Su Wenchen heard this, he nodded slightly.

"Don't worry, Mayor Zhai. When I go to the provincial capital to apply, I will definitely visit the old secretary first."

Su Wenchen himself had this plan. After all, with the support of familiar leaders, it would naturally save a lot of trouble.

Besides, whether he has business to do or not, he will go to see his old leader if he really goes to the provincial capital. After all, when he was in Lan City, Secretary Li really helped him a lot.

After discussing the subsequent arrangements for the import and export company,

Su Wenchen and He Zhenbang left the city.

On the way back, He Zhenbang spoke directly to Su Wenchen.

"What the hell is this? He's retreating and not letting others advance. No wonder he's being punished the most severely!"

"You have to be careful. I'm afraid that this time in the province may not be smooth sailing. In the meeting room, the person in charge of the city's textile industry looked like a petty person to me."

"He can't fight against Secretary Zhou, so I'm afraid he will continue to attack us."

Now Su Wenchen is also very unhappy with the city textile industry.

After enjoying the tilt of resources for so long, they are still going backwards as they develop, and even when they themselves are incompetent, they don’t allow others to take the lead.

No wonder Secretary Zhou made trouble. Even Mayor Zhai supported him. It seems that he enjoyed being the leader too much in recent years and was too comfortable. The internal affairs must have become rotten.

It is no wonder that export volume is decreasing year by year.

They don't even think about improving the quality of their own products, but instead focus on suppressing other sister companies. It would be strange if their export volume could still increase.

But this also gave Su Wenchen a reminder.

Although their Lanshui County is developing rapidly now, it is also the leader in the breeding industry in Lan City.

Especially the chicken farm, which is about to reach its development limit. If it stagnates, the managers in the farm will probably gradually lay off.

Then it went down little by little, because Su Wenchen felt that the city's textile industry would definitely not be corroded in one day.

It must be due to the lack of competition for a long time, coupled with the leadership and management gradually losing the enterprising spirit, so it was gradually corroded bit by bit.

Thinking about his own situation, Su Wenchen discovered that Zheng Xianghong's presence was sometimes not a bad thing.

At the very least, there will always be a knife hanging over Zhang Zhenhua's head.

However, based on Zheng Xianghong's previous style of doing things, he would definitely be liquidated later. After all, the path the other party took from the beginning had determined the outcome.

So Su Wenchen had no idea how many years this knife could be used. It seemed like it was time to train someone to compete with Zhang Zhenhua.

Looking at the silent Su Wenchen, He Zhenbang looked at him strangely.

"What's wrong? Are you afraid of the city textile department?"

"Don't worry, the other party won't dare to openly oppose something like this when it comes to earning foreign exchange."

"Plus, the city will definitely support us, and with Secretary Li in the province, the overall situation will definitely be on our side."

"Plus, given the quality of our fur, it would be a loss for the province if we really couldn't export it."

"The city won't say anything."

He Zhenbang started to comfort Su Wenchen directly.

Su Wenchen shook his head.

"I'm not worried about that. I'm wondering if our field will become increasingly rigid as it gets bigger!"

“It has become a zombie company that only knows how to live off its past profits!”

Hearing Su Wenchen's words, He Zhenbang smiled and waved his hand.

"You're really thinking too far ahead. Just change it. Anyway, I guess you won't know where you've been transferred to by then."

"If the foreign exchange earning mission is successfully declared, I think you may have to move if you are willing."

"When I discussed this matter with Lao Zhai and Secretary Zhou earlier, Lao Zhai told me that the old secretary wanted to transfer you to the provincial government several times."

"But Old Zhai stopped us. He thought that even if you were transferred there, your position in the provincial capital would be too low and you wouldn't be able to do anything. It would be better for you to stay here."

"Otherwise, I wouldn't have come out to help you stop the people behind Secretary Zhou. Do you think Secretary Zhou doesn't know that you are using Zheng Xianghong as a gun to check Li Zhenhua?"

"Of course, Old Zhai is mainly afraid that if you leave, those two will cause some problems at Lanshui Field, and we don't want the same thing to happen as at Shiquan Field."

“In the end, the city will have to clean up the mess.”

"This time he asked you to go to the provincial government to meet the old secretary because he wanted you to make your own choice. If you have made achievements in earning foreign exchange, it will affect your future if you keep suppressing it."

Su Wenchen said with some surprise when he heard this.

"What did Secretary Li transfer me to the province for?"

"Can't we just keep raising chickens?"

Thinking of what Mayor Zhai said earlier about the old secretary being in charge of agriculture in the province, and also before Secretary Li left, it seemed that Rex rabbits had not yet produced any results, so Su Wenchen felt that he would most likely be asked to raise chickens.

He Zhenbang smiled and shook his head.

"Then I don't know, but you'll find out when you get to the provincial capital."

"Now it seems like it was a good thing that you didn't go before. If you were transferred there before, it would either be a lateral transfer or a promotion of one level at most."

"Now if you succeed in earning foreign exchange and have made contributions, it is not impossible to directly promote you two or three levels." "But it depends on which unit you are transferred to. If you are transferred to a provincial agency, I guess you won't be promoted too high, after all, there are not many positions there."

"If you are transferred to a lower level, you will be given a lot of benefits. Who would be willing to work hard without sweet rewards?"

"It's up to you to decide. Just have an idea in mind."

Hearing what He Zhenbang said, Su Wenchen's eyes flickered.

To be honest, he was still a little touched. After all, Secretary Li is different now.

Although it seems to have only been raised one level, this level is something that most people cannot praise enough.

So now Su Wenchen's heart is really in turmoil.

However, he had no way of judging whether he should go or not before knowing the specific situation.

If he were asked to do a secretary's job like serving tea and water, Su Wenchen would definitely not be willing to do it.

Although his future is not a worry, this is different from his philosophy. After all, with the golden finger in his hand, he still wants to do something practical.

In addition, secretarial work is usually too rigidly bound.

Su Wenchen didn't want to tie his future to someone else, even if that person was Secretary Li, whom he was familiar with.

It is better to keep the initiative in your own hands in the future.

After all, if you are a capable person, even if your backer falls, as long as you have enough value for united front work, there will still be new people who will come to win you over.

Of course, the prerequisite is that you have to be a capable person, otherwise this will be the outcome!
It depends more on luck.

However, Su Wenchen still had some unknown expectations for the upcoming trip to the provincial capital.

After returning to the field.

Su Wenchen convened a meeting of all the current management in the venue in the small auditorium.

But this time, Zheng Xianghong was completely different from the first time she came.

I just sat down in the first row with the others.

On the opposite side, Su Wenchen was the only one sitting on the podium.

Everyone else was holding notebooks and looking at Su Wenchen on the stage with anticipation.

Most of the leaders present knew why Su Wenchen went to the city for a meeting today.

After all, regarding the issue of earning foreign exchange, Su Wenchen had already mentioned it on the spot after the Yuehua Rabbit was bred.

However, since Su Wenchen was personally in charge of this matter from the very beginning, there was no way for others to get a piece of the pie.

But even if we cannot participate in person, after all, this matter is in the name of the field. If it can really generate foreign exchange, everyone will be able to benefit from it to some extent.

Let’s not talk about anything else, just talk about the welfare benefits. Foreign exchange-earning enterprises are different from ordinary state-owned enterprises.

Various rare tickets and some daily necessities are supplied to these types of units first.

So no one else in the field wants to fail.

moment.

The door of the small auditorium was pushed open, and Miao Yuan ran in breathlessly, followed by the various management team leaders from the rabbit house.

"Director, I'm sorry, we're late. We were delayed at the rabbit house!"

Su Wenchen waved his hand.

"Sit down quickly!"

He knew that because it involved earning foreign exchange, Miao Yuan paid more attention to the rabbit house during this period and basically spent most of his time watching it.

Besides, the pressure there is the greatest right now, so he naturally wouldn't say anything that would affect other people's emotions on such matters.

Looked at the personnel.

"Since everyone from the Rabbit House is here, let me tell you about the meeting in the city this time."

Hearing this, everyone looked at Su Wenchen expectantly.

"First of all, regarding whether Yuehua rabbit fur can be exhibited at the Canton Fair to earn foreign exchange, the city has given a clear answer."

After hearing this, everyone instantly focused and held their breath, as if they were afraid of hearing bad news.

Su Wenchen looked at everyone's expressions and didn't keep anyone in suspense.

"The city has already agreed, and Secretary Zhou and Mayor Zhai have both clearly stated that they fully support our Blue Water Livestock Farm's foreign exchange earning project."

Su Wenchen's voice had just fallen.

There were exclamations from the audience, followed by deafening applause, which was much louder than ever before.

a long time.

The applause has not stopped yet, and many people's palms have even turned red from clapping, but it still hasn't stopped.

The sound gradually stopped until Su Wenchen reached out and suppressed it.

"First of all, this honor belongs not only to the rabbit house, but also to every employee in our farm."

"So I hope everyone can have a positive attitude and not think that everything will be fine."

"We must continue to display the spirit of not fearing hardship or fatigue. After all, this is only the first step in a long journey."

"It will need provincial approval, and then the final review by the Ministry of Foreign Trade!"

“Even if the product is successfully exhibited and the order has been signed, if there are quality problems, people will still return the product.”

Thinking of the increasingly stagnant situation of the textile industry in the city today, Su Wenchen couldn't help but pour a basin of cold water on it.

After all, they haven't succeeded yet, so he still doesn't want everyone to open champagne at halftime.

However, he also knew that this kind of thing actually had limited impact. After all, the city's textile industry did not develop in a day.

He also threw out the sweet dates that he had asked Mayor Zhai for before leaving the city.

"In addition, I have also applied to Mayor Zhai of the city to improve the food standards in our farm and add one more meat dish every day."

"Of course, pork is still hard to get right now, but that's what our farm does. We're short of everything else except eggs and rabbit meat."

Hearing Su Wenchen's words, especially the grassroots managers such as the team leaders who came to the meeting.

Suddenly their eyes lit up.

After all, they are called management personnel, but they are not part of the cadre establishment. At most, their salary is a few yuan more than that of ordinary employees, so their daily conditions are actually no different from those of ordinary employees.

Having an extra meat dish every day is very attractive to people like them.

Even without mentioning them, even if they were assigned to cadre positions, it would be impossible for them to eat meat every day.

So in an instant, applause rang out again.

In fact, if they were not the livestock farm themselves, this would be basically impossible to achieve.

After all, Su Wenchen applied to Mayor Zhai before leaving, but in the end he only got the answer that they had to find a way to increase the benefits in the field themselves.

If the city needs to coordinate with other meat processing plants, it can only coordinate one batch at most, and it is impossible to supply all the time.

However, this matter does not have much impact on them. After all, they are not short of eggs and meat. However, there is no reason to use it to provide benefits to employees at this time.

You can't just say that because the employees want to eat meat, we have to increase the meat supply!
That would definitely be unexplainable, and this time, because he had the excuse of earning foreign exchange, Su Wenchen applied directly to the city.

After all, earning foreign exchange is so hard, so what's wrong with giving some compensation to the employees?

If it weren't for the issue of earning foreign exchange, the city would not have approved this matter, because if everyone did this, everyone would produce things to supply their own employees, and how could the city plan and develop?

Of course, even if others want to use earning foreign exchange as an excuse, we can’t follow them. After all, you have to be able to produce something that the city at least thinks can be exported.

If other state-owned enterprises could produce such a thing, Su Wenchen believed that the city would be even happier.

After pressing his hands, Su Wenchen continued.

"One last thing here, which is about the import and export company."

"Since relevant qualifications are required for export, our farm and the tannery in the county jointly established a Lanshi Leather Import and Export Company to be responsible for it."

"I am currently serving as the director of the Revolutionary Committee of the Import and Export Company."

"In addition, the city has decided that I will recommend a deputy director, Director He from the county will recommend a deputy director, and Director Deng from the Municipal Foreign Trade Bureau will recommend the last deputy director to jointly manage this newly established import and export company."

Su Wenchen was also very clear about the city's arrangement, which was that each of the three companies would send one person to be responsible for daily management. Basically, it was unlikely that something like the city's textile industry would happen.

After hearing Su Wenchen's words, although the others didn't know why the city made such arrangements, everyone heard clearly that Su Wenchen had a recommendation quota.

Everyone knows the status of this company responsible for earning foreign exchange in the city.

Moreover, since Su Wenchen also serves as the director, they also feel that this will increase their status in the company.

Except for Miao Yuan, everyone else present looked at Su Wenchen expectantly.

Even Zhang Zhenhua and Zheng Xianghong mentioned above are no exception.

However, Su Wenchen did not consider the two's intentions at all. After a moment's silence, he spoke.

"I thought about it. At present, there are three deputy directors with sufficient rank in our farm. Comrade Zhenhua and Comrade Xianghong cannot be separated because they are responsible for the chicken farm."

"After all, the chicken farm is related to the city's egg supply, and the responsibility is no less than earning foreign exchange, so I carefully considered that Comrade Han Yang could be freed from the farm office."

"Let's recommend him this time! What do you think?"

After hearing Su Wenchen's words, Zhang Zhenhua and Zheng Xianghong looked at Han Yang who was standing there in a daze with complicated expressions.

It was obvious that Su Wenchen had already made up his mind, and there was no point in the two of them saying more.

In addition, Zheng Xianghong knew that her support was almost gone, so she naturally did not dare to confront Su Wenchen.

Zhang Zhenhua also knew that the province was too far away from here, and his backers were of no use when it came to earning foreign exchange.

I could only watch Han Yang over there get the advantage.

Han Yang, who heard Su Wenchen's words, was also stunned by the huge joy for a moment.

what's the situation?
I?
Go to an import and export company to be the deputy director?

Zheng Xianghong and Zhang Zhenhua have Director Zhou behind them, respectively.

Finally it was my turn.

Han Yang was looking at two envious eyes on the side at this moment, and for a moment he really wanted to speak loudly to them.

Let you always look down on me.

He privately scolded me for being spineless and said that I only knew how to suck up to powerful people.

As if no one knows.

I want to tell you now, there is nothing wrong with being soft-boned and hugging someone powerful.

Thinking of this, he stood up and said to Su Wenchen.

"Director, don't worry. I will fight for the interests of our farm when I get there. Just tell me what you want to do."

Hearing this, Su Wenchen waved his hand.

"Don't fight too hard for some benefits. The city has already decided on the specific distribution plan, and you just need to implement it."

"Don't ask whether we should give orders or not in the future. We are here to serve the people."

“Only the people can tell us what to do!”

However, Su Wenchen was still satisfied with Han Yang's statement. After all, this man was at least much easier to control than Zheng Xianghong and Zhang Zhenhua.

Hearing Su Wenchen's words, Han Yang immediately nodded repeatedly.

"Yes, yes, yes. I reflect on myself. I said the wrong thing. We serve the people."

Zheng Xianghong and Zhang Zhenhua, who were standing by, showed a look of disdain when they saw Han Yang's look.

I thought to myself.

A flatterer!
They actually let this kind of person go up.

Obviously, both of them knew that Han Yang, who went to the import and export company, would gradually have a higher status in the city than them.

Unless one day earning foreign exchange is no longer important, my future will definitely be better than both of them.
