"Factory 738 has always performed well. Its sales volume once ranked among the top five in the country. However, it has declined in recent years, and its sales volume has also ranked eighth in the country."

Chen Meng said.

"Why do we need to reform the system with such good benefits?" Tang Xiaowan asked.

"Let Brother Tang answer this question for you." Chen Meng looked at Tang Xiaoli.

"Brother Chen is testing me."

Tang Xiaoli smiled and said, "Xiaowan, you have been abroad all year round and do not understand the current domestic situation. With the opening up of our country and the influx of foreign investment, some traditional domestic manufacturing industries have been greatly impacted by new products.

It is an inevitable trend that the sales volume will decline year by year. Now the 738 Factory seems to be doing well, but that is just the reputation accumulated over the past few decades. In addition, the concept of accepting new things among the current people has not yet been formed, which temporarily covers up the decline of the 738 Factory.

fact."

"That's it." Tang Xiaowan thought thoughtfully.

Chen Meng nodded and said, "Brother Tang is right, but there is a more fundamental reason. 80% of our country's traditional industries are state-owned enterprises, and it is a big pot rice system. The advantage of this system is that it can gather resources and have relatively strong cohesion and centripetal force.

.

But the disadvantages are also obvious, that is, the lack of enterprising spirit and enthusiasm, coupled with the impact of foreign brands, the traditional industry is equivalent to working behind closed doors, whether it is technology research and development or product upgrading, it is in a state of stagnation. If this continues

, the result is to decouple from the entire world and return to a state of isolation."

"Brother Chen still understands deeply." Tang Xiaoli praised.

Tang Xiaowan also looked at Chen Meng with admiration, "Isn't it good to be self-sufficient?"

"Ms. Tang, although I am a country person, I also know that this is a unified world, and no one can be isolated from the whole world. Of course, it is good to be self-sufficient, but it is just a beautiful utopian world. The premise is that,

The country is developed enough, both in terms of military and practical technology, and is at the top of the world. We don’t need foreigners’ technology. Foreigners will actively ask to do business with us, and we must have enough financial and military power to protect them.

nation.

Otherwise, we will only end up with the same end as the previous dynasty. What’s more, our country’s current economic level is still at the bottom. People want to be happy, so they must integrate with the world. This is what our country has tried hard and paid a huge price to join.

The reason for the WTO." Chen Meng said.

"Brother Chen is right. In fact, even if it is at the top level in the world, such as the United States, it cannot be isolated from the world. It needs to conduct economic and trade exchanges with the whole world. Otherwise, it will not be able to feed so many people and maintain high quality.

Life." Tang Xiaoli nodded.

Chen Meng laughed, "So, self-sufficiency can only be a utopian ideal world. Unless the world is unified, it will never exist."

"You are indeed quite capable, and your words are very interesting." Tang Xiaowan said.

Chen Meng pretended to be surprised, "I am flattered to be praised by Miss Tang."

Is it fun to ridicule me?

boring!!

Tang Xiaowan rolled her eyes and walked straight ahead.

Chen Meng sweated furiously, "Brother Tang, your sister is not an ordinary girl with low emotional intelligence."

"Brother Chen, forgive me. Xiaowan has lived abroad all year round. She is used to being straightforward and does not know how to be tactful. In fact, she is a very nice person and has no bad intentions."

"Then maybe her father named her Xiaowan on purpose, hoping that she would be more gentle." Chen Meng said with a smile.

"Brother Chen is right, it is really like this."

The two of them followed behind, chatting and laughing.

The entire 738 factory production area is actively large.

Several branch factories and directly affiliated workshops are located on both sides of the road.

This road is also the main road in the provincial capital, so there is an endless stream of people and vehicles.

"Don't mention it, the geographical conditions of Factory 738 are really good. If we can take it over, the factory building will basically not need to be renovated, and the transportation conditions are ready. The only troublesome problem is how to relocate tens of thousands of workers." Tang Xiaoli said.

"Brother Tang, what do you think about the worker resettlement issue?"

"My uncle's suggestion is to allow the bicycle factory to maintain basic operations and support the basic expenses of the workers, and then streamline and eliminate workers, leaving only those who are young, strong, and capable of learning to receive training," Tang Xiaoli said.

Chen Meng pondered, "Of the more than 30,000 workers, the old, weak, sick and disabled account for at least one-tenth, and female workers account for another two-tenths. The remaining seven-tenths are basically mature workers who are skilled in fine decoration.

In addition to those who have retired, there are at least seven to eight thousand people. After all, we have to resettle 40,000 workers, not to mention the families of these people, the total number is 100,000. If the streamlining and elimination policies are not in place,

The trouble caused is far beyond that of a small agricultural machinery factory in Qingshan County."

"Brother Chen, what do you think?"

"If you want to streamline and eliminate, you will definitely have to pay severance pay. When I was at the Qingshan County Agricultural Machinery Factory, the standard was 50,000 per person, and then we also accepted a large number of workers who were unwilling to continue working in the factory and worked on the construction site.

It's relatively smooth. If Factory 738 does this, it will definitely not work. Each person is fifty thousand, and the severance pay for 40,000 workers alone is 2 billion. The remaining money is simply not enough for us to acquire Factory 738."

"Forty thousand people can keep at least 20,000 people, and we won't spend that much severance pay."

"Even so, it will cost one billion in severance pay. It's okay for the prime-age workers who are laid off. After all, they have the strength and skills to find a job to support their families. What about the old, weak, sick, disabled and female workers? What about the retirees?

?These people are not a small number. Who can be responsible for more than 10,000 people causing trouble?" Chen Meng said.

"Ask the government for help and force everyone to do it across the board." Tang Xiaoli gritted his teeth and said.

"No." Chen Meng shook his head.

"Brother Chen, kindness does not lead to military success, and kindness does not amass wealth. Our investment of 5 billion is not charity."

"I know."

Chen Meng nodded.

Moreover, many restructured enterprises did this in the previous life, and the government came forward and imposed a one-size-fits-all approach.

If there is a disturbance, law enforcement agencies will be responsible for quelling it.

When Chen Meng was young, he often became a keyboard warrior and scolded such unconscionable behavior.

Later, when I learned more about it, I realized that the government had no choice but to invest capital to create maximum benefits at the minimum cost.

If a country wants to develop its economy, it needs to introduce capital, and capital will not negotiate conditions or good intentions with anyone.

To put it bluntly, only when you plant a plane tree can you attract the phoenix.

"Since Brother Chen knows everything, why don't you agree?" Tang Xiaoli was puzzled.

"There is no good or evil in capital, but there is good and evil in people. If we don't lay off the workers, we will make less money for two years at most, but what we will get in return is tens of thousands of people who will be grateful for a lifetime. Don't you want Brother Tang to do this business?" Chen Meng smiled.
