Over here at the old dock warehouse,
Li Xiucheng was not idle either.
Work overtime every day, supervise and supervise to run at full capacity to maintain production speed.
After getting rid of Xiao Daguang.
He recruited three or four more "employees" one after another.
They were all co-workers with whom he had a good relationship in the machinery factory.
He works in the factory during the day and quietly goes to the billiard table factory at night to earn extra money.
When there are more people, things happen.
Within two days, Li Xiucheng discovered a problem.
These people who have been in state-owned enterprises for a long time have also brought with them the bad habits of cheating and cheating.
Either work slowly, or smoke for half an hour.
Although the number of workers has doubled, the production efficiency is only able to produce one more pool table per day than before.
Li Xiucheng thought, continuing like this is not an option.
That night, Liu Yonggang was called to reorganize the current production process.
Then list each link in detail.
Finally, based on various costs, a piece-rate wage schedule was developed!
The next night.
Li Xiucheng called everyone together for a meeting.
"Here's the piece rate schedule I just worked out."
"All jobs are clearly priced. You will earn exactly how much you do today. It's clear."
While Li Xiucheng was speaking, he also posted the piece-rate wage schedule on the wall.
"Next, Brother Liu will be responsible for arranging everyone's work."
"Those who are willing to work can stay and continue to work. Those who are unwilling to work can come to me to settle their wages."
Everyone came up one after another to look at the piece rate schedule.
People who are usually diligent will be happy after reading this.
The person who usually cheats and shows off has a gloomy look on his face.
"Xiucheng, what do you mean? It makes it seem like we are not working hard."
"Brother Zhang is overthinking, my point is very simple."
"If you, your wife or children, don't want to be on the hot bed, you come to me, Li Xiucheng, because you believe that I, Li Xiucheng, can help you make money."
"If in the end everyone doesn't earn as much as the machine factory, then it's because I, Li Xiucheng, don't have the skills."
When Li Xiucheng said this, he looked at everyone: "I, Li Xiucheng, only have one sentence - the more you do, the more you earn!"
"well said!!"
Liu Yonggang stood up first.
"I also think piecework is very good, very dynamic!"
"That's it! Anyway, I came here to find Xiucheng just to make money!"
"Start work! Let Brother Liu arrange work for us!"
"..."
State-owned enterprises' traditional method of eating from one big pot and sharing wages equally has long been criticized by many people.
The person who usually cheated and flirted didn't say anything more.
The next few days.
The difference in efficiency of piece rate wages is reflected.
In order to make money, these workers who come to work overtime work very hard.
No one dawdles anymore.
Even Brother Zhang did the math on his fingers and found that the money he earned in two days was actually more than a week of normal work in the machinery factory. He immediately became more active than anyone else.
After smoking a cigarette for less than two minutes, I slipped back to continue smoking.
When it was time to get off work, I couldn't bear to leave.
If Li Xiucheng hadn't considered fatigue production safety issues and forced everyone to get off work before 12 o'clock, I'm afraid many people would be willing to work until dawn.
The speed of billiard table production was also immediate.
From about three or four pictures a day in the past few days, it has soared to the level of six or seven.
Directly doubled!
As the start time of the Beijing Jianpai Cup Billiards Competition gets closer and closer.
Whether it is in newspapers or on TV, you can see relevant news reports.
Because of the characteristics of the historical period.
In this day and age, there aren’t many “interesting things” that can be seen in newspapers and television media.
Rare entertainment news like a billiards game quickly attracted more and more people's attention.
But as the first national broadcast by a television station,
Many people did not have enough foresight as to how much attention it would attract.
In addition to focusing on the production of the billiard table factory every day, Li Xiucheng also
The other thing is to call Xiao Daguang every now and then to check on the progress of the decoration.
Although this person is picky, he still has some courage when he really goes out of his way to do something.
Working overtime day and night, the decoration is coming to an end.
time flies.
In the blink of an eye, July 5th has arrived.
Li Xiucheng watched the time and went to the terminal transportation department, where there was a TV.
When I went there, it was already crowded.
The only TV stations these days are CCTV 1 and CCTV 2. There are very few programs and they are all broadcast at fixed points.
Moreover, the station has to be shut down for one day every Tuesday, and the screen is filled with "big square balls."
There isn't much for the audience to see.
In addition, programs such as billiards competitions have never appeared before.
As a result, when the Beijing Jianpai Cup Billiards Competition started airing on July 5, it immediately caused a big earthquake.
"This foreigner is so awesome."
"His name is Steve Davis. As I just introduced him, he is the world's number one snooker player!"
"We Chinese players can't seem to beat us."
"What the hell, my dad participated in aiding Korea back then! He's running around with these grandsons in their arms!"
"Hahaha, it's just a ball. Maybe I can go up and hit it accurately!"
"Zhou Leizi, you are just a braggart..."
"..."
Dozens of people gathered around a black and white TV, gesticulating, bragging, and teasing.
There was a lot of noise.
Li Xiucheng smiled, although everyone's quality of life is not high now.
But I really miss the atmosphere.
I will never feel this way again in the next few decades.
Each household lives in the same building, and you may live there for several years without even recognizing the name of the next door neighbor.
After watching it for a while,
Li Xiucheng squeezed out the crowd.
In my memory, all eight Chinese players in this competition were eliminated in the first round.
Except for Zhang Yanbin, who won one game against Jimmy White, the Chinese players lost every game in the other games.
In the end, Willie Foltz defeated Jimmy White 5-2 to win the championship.
So Li Xiucheng thought about it later.
The reason why billiards became popular from this national broadcast.
Maybe there is also a national plot factor.
After all, the country at this time has been suffering from a lot of external pressure. Seeing Chinese players losing so miserably in this field, people will have an urge to be unconvinced and want to fight back.
In the evening, Li Xiucheng called Xiao Daguang again.
Xiao Daguang also just watched the broadcast of the billiards competition and was excited.
"Don't worry, Mr. Li, I'll keep an eye on it every day and I'll make sure it won't delay anything important!"
"That's good. Regarding the news about the billiards competition, we must keep it confidential."
"I'm sure, even if you beat me to death, I won't say a word!"
Xiao Daguang patted his chest in assurance, and then asked: "By the way, Mr. Li, my decoration here is in the final stage. When will the pool table arrive? Shanghai is a long way from us, so don't forget to make arrangements for me in advance." "
"There's no rush. Once you've finished decorating, we'll fly it over directly. It's very fast. It'll be there as soon as you say it will."
"Air transport? That's awesome. I've never flown on a plane in my entire life."
"It's a small matter. When the competition is successfully concluded, our group will charter a plane for Boss Xiao to take you to Shanghai for two days."
"Chartered flight? That's great. OK, OK, Mr. Li, I'll give you my head here to guarantee that there will be no problem!"
