The County Materials Corporation is an enterprise owned by the whole people after the restructuring of the original County Materials Bureau.

In the era of planned economy, the Bureau of Materials was in charge of the means of production and material supply, and was the most popular overall situation of the government.

After the implementation of the market economy, the allocation of resources was determined by the market. The material bureau, which had been so hot, suddenly cooled down.

For this reason, the Materials Bureau withdrew from the government functional management agency.

It is easy to change the name but difficult to change the system.

Due to the inertia of the planned economic system and the incompatibility of the internal mechanisms and structures of material companies, many material companies or enterprises across the country have been defeated and collapsed in the tide of market economy.

Crushed.

When Zhou Haiyang was the executive deputy county magistrate of Boxing County, he once compared the Boxing County Materials Company with the Huaining City Materials Company, and even the material companies in the province.

Although it is not as miserable as some places, it is still just hanging on and dying.

So he estimated that the material companies in Renyuan County were not much better.

…

Zhou Haiyang and Qiu Jianfeng came to Renyuan County Materials Company.

Because there was no prior notice, Li Qi, the general manager of the material company, seemed very nervous about Zhou Haiyang's sudden arrival.

When shaking hands, Zhou Haiyang felt a little disgusted by Li Qi's flattering attitude.

But then he thought again, people should not be judged by their appearance, let’s listen to the work report first!

What Zhou Haiyang didn't expect was that the report from this unattractive general manager made him feel inspired and excited.

Li Qi has excellent eloquence and can talk eloquently.

The entire report is concise, clear, informative, well-organized, and has accurate figures.

The county materials company has building materials companies, transportation companies, warehousing companies, and trading companies under it. Each company is operating well and making profits every year.

Several factories under the original County Materials Bureau were all sold after the restructuring and became private enterprises, leaving no baggage.

Before the company's total assets were changed to enterprise, the net increase actually increased fourfold.

Zhou Haiyang had to re-examine the unattractive general manager of the materials company in front of him and decided to have a good talk with him.

Zhou Haiyang changed his serious expression and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that the material company's development prospects would be bright."

Then, Zhou Haiyang changed the conversation to chatting.

After entering a relaxed state, Zhou Haiyang immediately discovered that Li Qi had a unique charm.

Li Qi smoked while recalling, and his expression when recalling seemed very painful.

Li Qi said: "I am over 50 years old this year. When I graduated from high school, I was 18 years old. I first worked as a warehouse keeper and later as a purchaser in a production materials company.

At that time, the country's production materials were very scarce and tense.

In order to get supplies that were in short supply, I traveled all over the country, treating guests and giving gifts, building relationships, and going through the back door.

Whoever can obtain supplies at that time will be credited with developing the local economy.

Because I obtained the most supplies, I was soon promoted to section chief.

Later he was promoted to manager of the production materials company.

Step by step, he became the deputy director and director of the County Materials Bureau.

Look at what I look like now. I don’t look like a human or a ghost. It’s all the legacy of those years.

Running around all year round, not being able to eat well, and drinking alcohol, my gastrointestinal tract was damaged, and I ended up with this monkey look.

In order to please the people who control the materials, I smile at them all day long. The bigger the other person's eyes roll, the meaner I smile.

To this day, I still look mean when I smile."

Zhou Haiyang smiled and said, "I don't think of you that way."

Li Qi smiled bitterly, shook his head, and said: "Secretary Zhou, don't be polite to me! How do you look at me? Can I still not see it?

I'm used to it now, and I'm not ashamed of it, but proud of it."

Zhou Haiyang said with a smile: "Mr. Li, you can look at your own shortcomings with an open mind, which in itself is your strength."

Li Qi continued: "Later, when we entered the market economy, I began to wonder, what should the Materials Bureau do in the era of market economy?

What should we do with so many companies under the material system and hundreds of employees?

Then, before the restructuring, I started to break away from the big pot within the material system.

Establish a sales contract system and a job responsibility system to encourage those who are capable to work more, and those who work more will get more.

Next, implement dividends based on shares. Then, implement a joint-stock system.

Seize the original market and seize new markets.

When the higher authorities requested restructuring, I used the policies from the higher authorities to first contract out and then sell the enterprises that were unviable and poorly managed, thus completely getting rid of the burden.

For these things, I was asked to investigate by the relevant departments, and they almost didn't arrest me.

After the Materials Bureau was changed into a Materials Company, others were worried and didn't know what to do.

And I had already made preparations in advance, so I didn’t have to worry about it at all.

In the days of the Materials Bureau, although I was the director, I could not appoint managers of subordinate companies. All decisions had to be made by the county.

After changing to a material company, I have greater power and I have the final say.

In the past, it was difficult to manage the employees who held the iron rice bowl. I couldn't smash the iron rice bowl.

But now I have a performance appraisal and incentive mechanism, and the bonus is several times more than my salary.

If you don't obey the management and don't work hard, you will get no bonus and you will be laid off."

"Where did you learn these methods?"

“One of my biggest strengths is that I like to learn, and I will learn what I don’t understand. I learned all these things from foreign-funded enterprises.

I don’t believe that if an enterprise owned by the whole people cannot compete with a foreign-funded enterprise, then it cannot survive?

If approved by the county, I plan to establish a group company this year. I have already thought of a name, and it will be called Renyuan Logistics Group Co., Ltd...."

Zhou Haiyang interjected: "Submit your plan and the county committee will approve it immediately after studying it. You can start implementing it now."

Li Qi became more and more excited as he spoke: "Secretary Zhou, we rely on the port of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, and tens of thousands of tons of goods come in and out every year.

I am thinking about using a logistics group to cooperate with ports to establish a material trading center.

Logistics groups provide trading venues, information and services, starting with cargo landing at the port, attracting cargo owners and buyers to trade in the material trading center.

If this is done, the market in Renyuan County will be alive, the radiation effect will be stronger, and the radiation range will be wider."

Zhou Haiyang became more and more excited as he listened and kept cheering!

He stood up excitedly and said: "Li Qi, just do as you say. I fully support it. Give policy to policy, give money to money, and give people to people if you need it."

Li Qi said slowly: "Secretary Zhou, thank you for your support! But I don't want anything."

"What do you mean? You don't want anything, so what do you want?" Zhou Haiyang asked confused.

Li Qi said: "We need to have a good relationship between the county committee and the Port Authority."

"What happened to the relationship between the county committee and the Port Authority?" Zhou Haiyang looked at Li Qi in confusion and asked.

Li Qi continued: "The relationship between the previous county leaders and the Municipal Port Authority was very tense.

The county's price for port expansion was too high, and the two sides were at loggerheads.

Although the port is under the Ministry of Transport, it is located on the ground in Renyuan County after all.

A good relationship will be conducive to the development of the port and the development of the local economy.

The relationship is so tense, it hurts both sides!

Therefore, the key is for Renyuan County to have a good relationship with the port so that we can achieve a win-win situation."
