Chapter 1285

"Really good, you kid is capable, the house is built really well."

Old Factory Director Qi looked at the excitement in front of him, and his mouth couldn't hold back a smile, and he was endlessly satisfied.

"Look, cement roads were repaired, floor tiles were laid, gardens were set up, bicycle sheds were set up, the courtyards on the first floor were enclosed, and the paint on the walls is also good-looking. Really good."

In fact, the old factory director didn't know how many times he had come, but today the house was handed over, and he still couldn't help but say some nonsense.

Today, what is least lacking here is nonsense. Everyone is saying what they have said in the past, sighing that good days have come. Everyone is also more passionate about the socialist construction in the future...

Wang Yan smiled: "Where is this? In the future, this ground will have to be replaced with asphalt roads. If it weren't for the fact that the county is long-winded, we would have laid asphalt roads this time."

"Oh, cement roads are fine. Asphalt roads should be repaired outside. If the roads in our county are repaired, our factory and county can develop better. You should think more about serious matters. Building buildings is enough to enjoy; in fact, it is completely unnecessary."

"You don't live in it, Old Factory Director?"

"If you don't live in it, I will." Old Factory Director Qi hummed.

Wang Yan laughed heartily, and after watching the excitement for a while, he left.

This morning, except for those who really couldn't leave their posts, basically it was a half-day holiday for the whole factory. The scene was completely uncontrollable, and everyone went to see the house.

He went to the paper mill and watched the situation outside the sterile workshop.

This is the production workshop for sanitary napkins. The textile factory also set up a sterile production workshop for the required materials. It took several months to build, and it hasn't been put into use for long.

In order to avoid potential health hazards caused by insufficient actual conditions, various sterilization and packaging procedures were added. It can be said that the production of sanitary napkins is the factory with the highest cost in Jin Ling at present.

The next level down is toilet paper, and the health requirements are very high. However, the workshop for producing toilet paper is not here, and it is quite far away. As he said to County Magistrate Xu before, considering urban planning and development, some polluting factories have already started to relocate.

With his hands behind his back, he watched the workers in the glass window whispering and carrying out production operations.

He asked: "It's been almost a month, how are the sales of toilet paper and sanitary napkins?"

"They are selling well in our county. People in our county recognize our factory, and workers in the city and towns are also quite good, willing to spend money. Sales in the whole province are much worse. However, there are many people in the city, and they are a bit richer, so it is definitely better than our county, but it is still too far from our expectations. The feedback from state-owned stores in various places is not very ideal."

"Toilet paper is selling well. Our quality is good; it doesn't break when you poke it. The surface is also smooth, and it is still very comfortable to use."

"Perhaps our sanitary napkins are sold too expensively? Factory Director, should we adjust the price and lower it appropriately?"

"The prices of toilet paper and sanitary napkins are not set high; they are things that make small profits but quick turnover. If we lower them again, the factory will lose money. Things related to people's livelihood, we can not make big money, but we can't lose money. Losing money is the country's business. If we lose money, we can only lose it in our county. After all, we haven't reached the level of providing benefits to the people of the whole country."

Wang Yan waved his hand, "Still produce according to the original plan. If they can't be sold, stack them in the warehouse first. We can store one year's production volume. You don't have to panic; I'll find a way to solve this problem."

"Then how to solve it, Factory Director? The masses don't buy it; we can't force them to buy it, right?"

"We have to think about the reasons and why the masses don't buy it. I think it's because the vast number of female comrades don't know about these things, don't know the advantages of sanitary napkins, and still hold a skeptical attitude. So we have to tell female comrades what sanitary napkins are."

"How to tell them?"

"Very simple, just write an article and publish it in the newspaper..."

So, in the second issue of national authoritative newspapers such as the People's Daily and Guangming Daily after the New Year, as well as some provincial newspapers and daily newspapers with large circulation, articles published by Wang Yan were published. Although not all places cooperated, such a momentum could be considered to be passing through the whole country. Later, places that did not publish the articles written by Wang Yan also corrected their mistakes and reprinted them. For a time, the momentum was very huge.

Wang Yan didn't write articles that deliberately made people debate passionately; he just wrote a popular science article very seriously, which could be considered a health class on physiological health.

While submitting articles to various newspaper offices, he also sent boxes of sanitary napkins for the female comrades in the newspaper offices to experience personally.

If only relying on these, his articles would not be qualified to be published in national authoritative newspapers. He also sent the articles to the Women's Federation at the same time and also sent a lot of sanitary napkins.

Finally, after a period of discussion and finding medical experts, this article on female physiological health that was brightly advertising sanitary napkins was recognized.

With the spread of major newspapers, Jin Ling's sanitary napkins naturally became popular. Jin Ling's production capacity was limited. Such a big hot spot, Jin Ling couldn't eat it. Even if the workers were smoking, except for the province, it only supplied a part of Su Province.

However, there is never a shortage of people following the trend in this world. Seeing that Wang Yan made such a big momentum, women all over the country were inquiring about sanitary napkins, and various places must find ways to follow up.

This was cheap for Japan, because domestic production machinery was mostly purchased from there. Unlike Wang Yan, who saved it all by himself.

A few months after the New Year, various sanitary napkin brands were launched one after another in various places, which was another dragon and tiger fight.

It has always been like this. If soda is good, then there are all kinds of soda in the whole country. If beer is good, then beer is produced everywhere, and then it is a chaotic battle. Finally, only a few brands were left, sharing the huge market. Later, when people wanted to enter, it was difficult to enter.

Sanitary napkins were just the beginning, but jeans were already all over the streets after the New Year.

After the New Year, Jin Ling completely delivered the export orders, and denim jackets and white sneakers also started to be sold on the market. Within a month, everyone followed Jin Ling's pace, launched denim jackets and white sneakers together, and started a price war self-taught, which was very hot.

Jin Ling didn't lower the price, and even because of wage adjustments and rising prices, it rose by a few yuan instead.

Because Jin Ling's jeans were very recognized and earned tens of millions of foreign exchange from exports, people believed in the quality of Jin Ling products. Especially when various places started a price war, Jin Ling guaranteed the style, giving people who bought them a sense of superiority. Especially the batch of people who bought them last year also had the feeling of picking up a bargain. They all trusted Jin Ling.

It was also because of this that Jin Ling's denim jackets and white sneakers were also in short supply and sold very well.

It was also after the New Year that another major event happened.

That is, the cornerstone of Jin Ling's rise, the water-jet loom, also had rivals in China.

After a period of research, the famous textile machinery manufacturing factory, Jingwei, realized the mass production of water-jet looms. However, they didn't lower the price for sale, maintaining the same selling price as Jin Ling.

It was still the same reason. The domestic market was very large, and textile factories everywhere were updating equipment. Everyone had business to do, which didn't affect the sales volume. Instead, the previous release of Jin Ling's water-jet looms affected some of Jingwei's sales. However, now Jingwei supplemented the water-jet looms, which could be considered as completing the business.

After all, not all factories need to use shuttleless looms. China today has not reached that level. Even in the new century, there are still some small workshops using shuttle looms.

But the people of Jin Ling had a sense of crisis once again, because this time they didn't need foreigners to suppress them. Once the two families collided, Jin Ling would naturally not be able to beat Jingwei.

So at the factory meeting in early spring, someone raised this concern.

Wang Yan looked at the team of leading cadres who had already grown up, smoked a cigarette, flicked the ash, and then spoke.

"Everyone, relax. The development of our textile machinery, others don't know, Old Zhang, you are the leader in charge, you know best. How can there still be this kind of worry?"

Vice Factory Director Zhang said: "Factory Director, I am in charge of administration and business. You have always been the one doing the research and development..."

"You are incompetent."

Wang Yan sighed helplessly, "You don't know how to research and develop, and you can't intervene, but you should always have an understanding of the specific situation. Don't just stare at your own stall. Pay attention in the future."

After criticizing for a few sentences, he continued, "We started by relying on textile machinery, relying on water-jet looms. Although making clothes earns more money now, we have more workers relying on looms than steel mills, which is also our guarantee for making clothes. In the past year, I spent the most time in the textile factory and chemical factory."

"The water-jet loom was made by me alone after more than two months of tossing. Now that there are more people and more funds, how can there be no results after such a long time?"

"If you go to our textile factory to see, you won't worry. The current textile factory is no longer what it used to be; almost all of them are new machines. Even if they are old, they have been improved and upgraded, and the production efficiency has at least doubled."

"Otherwise, how can we guarantee the supply of cloth in the county, guarantee the production of sanitary napkins, and guarantee the production of our shoe and clothing factory?"

"If you have an understanding of shoe and clothing equipment, you will find that our shoe and clothing equipment is also different, all of which have been improved and upgraded. We can also sell these mechanical equipment."

"The reason why so many equipment have not been mass-produced and sold is just because we can't supply them."

"Factory buildings, manpower, electricity, water, these are all problems we need to solve. So why do I insist on building power stations and building our Jin Ling water network? Without these, we can't develop. Where is the key to the Industrial Revolution? Energy!"

"Factory Director, we understand now."

"Yes, don't say you can lead us to develop to this day..."

"The factory director is the factory director, awesome."

"Deep planning and far-reaching thoughts, deep planning and far-reaching thoughts!"

A group of 30, 40, or even 50-year-olds were flattering Vice Factory Director Wang with a basket of good words.

Wang Yan waved his hand and turned to say: "In more than a month, the visiting group composed of college students will come over. We must do a good job in reception. Communicate the time in advance, arrange transportation, food, and accommodation, and do a good job in the itinerary during their stay in Jin Ling."

"Comrades, this matter must not be slack. Our Jin Ling lacks talent. No matter what major they study, as long as they come to our Jin Ling, they are useful, very useful. Those who study medicine come over, can develop our county hospital; those who study law come over, can do a good job in our legal work; those who study machinery come over, can research more good things for us..."

"In the future, whether our Jin Ling can always develop so fast, and whether the 240,000 people of our Jin Ling can live a happy socialist life, these college students are the key. Coax and deceive, no matter what, we must recruit a few. At that time, show us the good style, and take out the spirit of our Jin Ling..."

This is really a major event. There is no one to engage in research and development. Even management level, a group of old cadres are actually not very strong. After all, under the textile factory, any business department is thousands of people. Not everyone has the ability to do a good job in the overall planning of so many personnel.

But fortunately, the old comrades' enthusiasm for work is okay, they are all willing to learn, willing to ponder, plus Wang Yan is in charge, leading everyone to work together, which can be considered to stabilize the situation in the factory.

So Wang Yan wants all majors, of course, it is best to be engineering. Regardless of whether they are materials for research, it is always more handy to use, and it can also improve efficiency.

But as he said, it doesn't matter if they are not engineering...

After holding such a meeting, calming people's hearts, conveying ideas, and arranging some tasks, this leadership meeting of the factory affairs was adjourned.

Just after the meeting, Wang Yan had to go out to continue his research.

He walked out of the original textile factory office building with his hands behind his back, and saw the gatekeeper of the factory's security department confronting a group of people at the factory gate not far away.

"Factory Director Wang! Factory Director Wang!"

Before Wang Yan could go over, a voice like a cannon burst sounded.

Wang Yan looked from afar, who else could it be but Lei Dongbao.

He walked over with his hands behind his back, and looked at the situation in the field.

On this side were five security guards, and on that side were Lei Dongbao and a group of his partners in the village, such as Shi Hongwei, Sibao, etc.

"What's going on?" Wang Yan asked.

"It's like this, Factory Director Wang..."

Lei Dongbao was about to speak when he was interrupted by the security department.

"Factory Director, they want to find you. I didn't let them in, and they wanted to break in. We stopped them, but they didn't listen; they just had to go in and find you."

"He didn't say it wrong, did he? Didn't exaggerate, did he?"

"A little bit." Sibao said from behind, "They said we bumpkins also want to see their factory director."

Wang Yan raised his eyebrows: "Who said that?"

"He said it." Sibao didn't care about others stopping him, and directly pointed at the person.

To say that this Sibao is also an acquaintance, Lei Dongbao is also, and Lei Shigen of Xiaolejia is also, and he is also the director of Wang Mouren...

Following Sibao's identification, Wang Yan looked at one of the gatekeepers: "Do you have anything to say?"

"I was just quick-tongued, I..."

Under Wang Yan's gaze, the man had nothing to say and sighed dejectedly.

"Go to the steel mill to report."

After saying this, he didn't look at the man again. Wang Yan took out a cigarette from his pocket, distributed a circle, lit one himself, and asked: "If I remember correctly, you are the village head of Xiaolejia, right?"

"Factory Director Wang has a good memory, I am Lei Dongbao."

"The people of Xiaolejia work fast and well. Thank you very much."

"The textile factory also gave money. Last year, everyone lived a very good life. We know that it is the textile factory that leads everyone to live a good life. We thank the textile factory and the county from the bottom of our hearts."

Wang Yan shook his head with a smile: "Tell me, why are you running here to find me instead of working at the construction site?"

"There is something I need to ask you, Factory Director Wang. To tell you the truth, Xiaogang Village divided the land last year, right? It is said that more grain was harvested, and it is still in the newspaper. I see that the country didn't deal with them, so our village also divided the land and mountains."

"I heard from County Magistrate Xu that your Xiaolejia dares to think and act. You are the first in our county to divide the land, and also the only one. Other villages are waiting for exact news; no one dared to move."

"We are also stupid and bold, we don't understand anything. Anyway, we just divided the land, everyone plants their own, and more or less is their own business." Lei Dongbao said, "But there is still a problem. In the past, everyone's land was together, all planted together, and harvested together. Including us coming to the city to build buildings, that was also together."

"Now it doesn't work. Each family plants land at different speeds, but earning more by working for your factory. During the New Year last year, many families in the village bought bicycles. So I was thinking, can we buy some agricultural machinery so that our village can plant faster and harvest faster? Relying on the commune, I don't know how long it will take to get to our side."

"But we went to the agricultural machinery station to ask, and the agricultural machinery station didn't sell. We went to the agricultural machinery factory to ask, and the agricultural machinery factory didn't sell, saying that selling to which commune was planned. We had no choice but to come to you, Factory Director Wang. Please have mercy and help us peasant brothers."

Xiaolejia is quite poor. Although the county is poor, there are always poorer ones. Xiaolejia is like this, which is in line with the development plan formulated by Wang Yan.

So in fact, many people in Xiaolejia are already working in the factory, but not everyone has entered the factory. Lei Dongbao is indeed a dare-to-do person and can toss.

Thinking for a while, Wang Yan exhaled a puff of smoke and nodded: "How many do you want?"

"Two for plowing, one for sowing, two for harvesting, and two tractors for pulling goods. The village will raise the money, and I guarantee it won't be a cent less." Lei Dongbao hurriedly followed up.

The agricultural machinery produced by the agricultural machinery factory is not expensive. Of course, only small ones are not expensive. Lei Dongbao naturally wants small ones, and one or two thousand or two or three thousand can have one. It's just that the parts break a lot, and the number of repairs is high, and the materials are not very good.

However, the agricultural machinery factory has now started to produce large agricultural machinery, which is for the plains in the county to work. Because the factory's development speed is still accelerating, it needs to liberate more labor force in the village.

At the moment, Lei Dongbao started to toss as in the original play, and Wang Yan didn't stop him. He took the small bag in his hand, took out paper and pen, and wrote a note directly.

"Take this to the agricultural machinery factory, it is estimated that it will be left for you next month."

"Thank you, Factory Director Wang, you really helped us a lot. With agricultural machinery here, planting is fast, and working in the city more, it is equivalent to these agricultural machinery being dropped for nothing all year round."

Lei Dongbao took the note with both hands, "Oh, look, how beautiful Factory Director Wang's handwriting is."

"Really, dragon flying and phoenix dancing, good-looking, good-looking." The people in the village echoed Lei Dongbao and flattered Wang Yan together.

Wang Yan asked with a smile: "Anything else?"

"Yes."

Lei Dongbao smiled cunningly, and then accompanied by caution, asked, "Factory Director Wang, there is a brick kiln in our village. I was thinking about opening this brick kiln again recently. We sell bricks for money, which can be considered a sideline in our village. I don't know if it can be done?"

"Are you asking if we use it to build houses?"

"Otherwise, you are the factory director, can it be used?"

"The brick factory in the county was not merged into the textile factory. The bricks you burn are no worse than those in the county, so we will use them. There are still many places where bricks are used at the construction site."

"Hey, with your words, we can rest assured, thank you, Factory Director Wang."

"Go, go."

Wang Yan waved his hand, didn't pay attention anymore, and left swaying...

Looking at Wang Yan's back, Lei Dongbao said: "Really a good leader..."

"Good attitude, very kind to us." Sibao followed.

Shi Hongwei said: "Did he make the decision for you?"

"Just say if it's satisfying?"

"Really stylish, go to the steel mill to report..." Sibao learned Wang Yan's light and breezy way of speaking just now...

"Go, go, you also have to take care of people's mood."

Shi Hongwei noticed the gatekeeper's bad expression on the side, mocked, and hurriedly hugged Lei Dongbao and others to leave...
