Chapter 132

Gu Bing read very quickly, and it was done in a few minutes. Looking at the people below, he smiled and said, "How about it, I read fast enough, right? Now, everyone get your money ready, just count by the number of seats, starting from the first person in the first row."

Outside, snowflakes were drifting, and the mood in the Cultural Palace was high. No one expected that this first worker would set off a climax, carrying a large black bag onto the stage. After opening it, it was full of money, a full 100,000, which startled everyone.

"This 100,000 is scraped together by all the relatives in my family. I also signed a contract with them. After getting the dividends, I will distribute dividends to them according to the proportion of money contributed."

His words stunned everyone, even Cheng Zhanjun and Zuo Peiming were very surprised. Can it still be played like this? Can it be played like this?

Yan Dahai said, "Does this count as a violation?"

When the workers heard this, they suddenly looked at Zhou Andong nervously. Others also looked over, including Cheng Zhanjun and Zuo Peiming, wanting to hear what Zhou Andong said.

Zhou Andong smiled and said, "He is a worker in our factory. As long as it is him who signs the contract, no matter if the money is borrowed or raised, we have no power to ask. When dividends are distributed in the future, who he gives the money to, we have even less power to stop, so his behavior is legal and compliant."

Hearing Zhou Andong's words, Cheng Zhanjun and Zuo Peiming nodded slightly. Then they looked at the worker with great appreciation. How many people can do what he did, not borrowing money to buy more shares, but raising funds, letting all relatives share their dividends together.

Zhou Andong said to the people in the finance section, "Alright, count the money, sign the contract."

The scene suddenly became enthusiastic, one by one paying money, counting money, signing contracts. The most was the first worker, who bought 100,000 shares, and the least was 2,000 shares.

Seeing that it was past seven o'clock, three hours had passed, and not even a hundred people had been finished. Zhou Andong knew that there was no need to sleep tonight.

Picking up the microphone, Zhou Andong said, "For those behind, everyone go back to eat first, and come back after eating. Those who have already signed the contract, don't join in the fun here, hurry home to eat and rest, don't delay work tomorrow."

However, except for the families, not many people moved. Zhou Andong was very helpless and let Yao Jun take several people from the logistics section to drive to find more restaurants to order boxed lunches, and then send them over.

Now it's not comparable to more than ten years later, especially at this point, 1,300 or 1,400 boxed lunches are not so easy to order. Can only run to more restaurants, order a little bit from each. As for money, what a joke, now the Jiangzhou Winery lacks everything, but it doesn't lack money.

By ten o'clock, the boxed lunches were finally delivered one after another. The workers were starving. Seeing that the factory bought boxed lunches, they gave their beloved Factory Director Zhou free applause.

For a whole night, until eight o'clock the next morning, the last person signed the contract. 21.76 million shares, general factory workers subscribed for 16.82 million shares, and the remaining 4.94 million shares were subscribed by Jinli County Branch Factory workers.

Cheng Zhanjun and Zuo Peiming also didn't leave all night. They were deeply shaken by the atmosphere at the scene.

Zhou Andong said, "Secretary, in the end, you should still say a few words."

Cheng Zhanjun nodded, picked up the microphone, and said, "This reform, the factory becomes a company, you have really become the masters of the enterprise, and the relationship between you and the government has changed. From today on, the relationship between our two families is, you register, I record; you earn money, I collect taxes; you get rich, I am happy; you break the law, I investigate; you go bankrupt, I sympathize.

But sympathy is sympathy, the government can no longer raise you, can only solve problems for you through social security. Every shareholder must work together and work hard; if it is ruined, there will be no food to eat. In addition, the shares in the hands of the government will be sold to the winery one after another according to the situation, and finally, no more shares will be held."

Just like this, Jiangzhou's first joint-stock enterprise was born. And many years later, whether it was Cheng Zhanjun or Zuo Peiming, or the Jiangzhou Winery workers, they would never forget the grand occasion of that night on March 1, 1992.

Because the workers didn't sleep all night and couldn't delay production, Zhou Andong could only let them work in shifts in the morning and afternoon, with some staying to work, others going home to sleep, and coming back to change shifts in the afternoon.

Zhou Andong and several others found a place to eat breakfast. While eating, Yan Dahai said, "Last night, the city leader didn't say it in front of me, but that Zheng Qianhua who acquired the Huwang Town Winery is actually Zhang Deyou's mistress."

Zhou Andong took a bite of the steamed bun. Hearing Yan Dahai's words, he was stunned for a moment. "So, that Zhang Xingfei from the security section is the illegitimate son of Zhang Deyou and this woman?"

"Yes!" Yan Dahai nodded, looked left and right, and lowered his voice. "I also heard that this Zheng Qianhua used to be Qu Hongqi's object."

Zhou Andong laughed. "Does Zhang Deyou know about this?"

Yan Dahai shook his head. "This is not clear."

"Interesting!"

Zhou Andong laughed again, but there was one thing he couldn't figure out. Although that Zhang Xingfei was an illegitimate son, he was Zhang Deyou's only son.

In the previous life, the winery went public, Zhang Deyou's two daughters both had shares, but Zhang Xingfei didn't, and even this woman Zheng Qianhua disappeared from the board of directors list.

This matter is afraid of pondering. Zhou Andong pondered and suddenly thought that Zheng Qianhua used to be Qu Hongqi's object. Could that Zhang Xingfei be Qu Hongqi's son, having nothing to do with Zhang Deyou?

Zhang Deyou suddenly discovered that Zhang Xingfei was not his son, and the anger in his heart could be imagined. How could Zheng Qianhua and Zhang Xingfei get any benefits? In this way, the mystery in his heart was explained.

"What are you thinking about?" Jian Qiu poked Zhou Andong's arm with her finger.

Zhou Andong came back to his senses. "Nothing, just suddenly thought of something."

After breakfast, Qian Zhen and Yan Dahai took people and share subscription contracts to Jinli County to take office.

On March 2, Du Chunlai brought a large group of people. The vacant personnel in each section were filled, and normal operation was restored, while Jian Qiu and An Jing boarded the train to Beijing.

A week later, the entries for the Short Story Literature Competition flew to the Beijing judging committee residence like snowflakes. It was also on this day that when the winery workers went to work, they suddenly found that a large piece of red cloth was covered on the gate tower of the factory gate.

On March 15, the winery was full of gongs and drums, and colorful flags were fluttering. Jiangzhou Yugong Wine Industry Co., Ltd. was officially established, and today was the day of the ribbon-cutting.

At ten o'clock in the morning, a long red ribbon was tied with four large red flowers. Cheng Zhanjun, Zuo Peiming, Zhou Andong, and Gu Bing held scissors and, with a "click," cut off the red flowers.

The flash kept flashing, and reporters from the City Daily and Evening News kept pressing the shutter. The city TV station reporter, carrying a camera, recorded this moment. In the evening, Jiangzhou News would report the whole process. Zhou Andong's name would officially enter the sight of the people of Jiangzhou.
