In the silent conference room, everyone's eyes were fixed on Wang Ye's face, with expressions of astonishment on their faces without exception.
"Wang Ye, what are you talking about? Your Red Star Machinery Factory wants to take on the task of earning foreign exchange?"
"Are you serious? Are you kidding?"
After a short silence, Li Gang, who was sitting there, looked at Wang Ye and asked, while Wang Ye didn't seem to notice everyone's confused gazes, nodded and smiled lightly:
"Yes, you heard it right. As the director of Hongxing Machinery Factory, I decided to take over the task of earning foreign exchange."
"Of course I'm serious. How can I joke about something so important?"
Wang Ye's sonorous voice echoed in the conference room, and the expressions of the participants began to change. After Wang Ye's indifference, Li Gang's confusion, and Liang Jinsong's brief surprise, the whole person became calm. , as if he were eating melons and watching a show.
Only the six giants of the machinery factory couldn't help but look at each other, the worry in their eyes was clear. Everyone had been initially convinced by Liang Jinsong's words and believed in this young man.
But now, he directly boasted that he would take over the task of earning US$100,000 in foreign exchange in Haikou. Isn't this a joke? Based on the current production capacity of Hongxing Machinery Factory, what can it produce that can earn US$100,000 in foreign exchange?
Furthermore, they began to feel that this young man was unreliable. Even if he was a graduate student from Huaqing, he was probably a fool who had high ambitions on paper but was short on success.
"Of course, it's not impossible."
"After all, after your Red Star Machinery Factory is under the management of our local industrial bureau, it will be treated equally with other state-owned factories. Of course, you can choose to earn foreign exchange."
"But Wang Ye, I have to say that although I just mentioned some things related to earning foreign exchange, I did not hint to you that your Red Star Machinery Factory should take over the task of earning foreign exchange. After all, your situation is quite special."
"And Wang Ye, I also understand your eagerness to contribute to the reform and opening up and economic construction of the motherland, but I must remind you that although the country does need foreign exchange, the task of earning foreign exchange is also a project we are actively promoting. But in my opinion, for the current Hongxing Machinery Factory, it is more important to first find a product or some orders, and start working to make money to survive."
"You have solved the problem of survival, which is your greatest contribution to the country, and then you can consider the issue of earning foreign exchange through exports, right?"
Hearing what Wang Ye said, Li Gang, who was sitting there, thought for two seconds, organized his words, and said this quite tactfully.
He even took most of the responsibility on himself, implying that what he just said put pressure on Wang Ye, forced Wang Ye to make such a decision, and gave Wang Ye's "extremely reckless" decision just now. Modification, that is, a decision made in a hurry to make a contribution to the country, to make it appear that this decision is not so stupid and ambitious.
After all, as long as a normal person hears what Wang Ye just said, he will feel that Wang Ye's head is probably pinched by the door. A person who has just undergone the military-to-civilian reform can at most produce pots, pans, rakes, hoes and other products. Isn't it a joke that a machine factory, even though the food problem has not been solved, is trying to earn foreign exchange, and can earn one hundred thousand U.S. dollars with just one mouthful?
Under the gaze of different people.
Wang Ye chuckled, stood up, picked up the Hongmei cigarettes on the table, and handed them around to everyone present, including the logistics director of the machinery factory and the female director of the Women's Federation who also smoked. After the air was filled with smoke again, Wang Ye fell back on his chair and said:
"First of all, Director Li, thank you for your kindness. I understand what you mean."
"But I'm really not joking. This decision was not made in a moment of enthusiasm. In fact, on the way here, Director Liang tested me once and asked me what I thought about the military-to-civilian reform of our machinery factory. "
"I said at the time that I had several plans, all of which needed to be decided based on the actual situation. The current task of earning foreign exchange is a certain actual situation that I assumed, which is very suitable for one of the plans I planned before!"
"So you don't have to worry about this."
Hearing what Wang Ye said, everyone present except Liang Jinsong, who still looked like an old man watching the fun, relaxed a little. Then Wang Ye glanced around the crowd before continuing to say with a slight smile:
"However, from your expressions, you can still see strong doubts and doubts."
"So Director Li, please allow me to ask you a question."
Faced with Wang Ye's slightly arrogant attitude, Director Li was not angry. Instead, he nodded with interest and said:
"Can."
Then Wang Ye reached out and took out a red plum cigarette from his ear, put it on the table, pointed in the direction of Old Man Zhao, looked up at Old Man Zhao and asked:
"Old senior, according to what Director Li said just now."
"It should be impossible for our Red Star Machinery Factory to find production tasks from the plan and support ourselves, right?"
"So we need to explore a product ourselves and make efforts in the market economy, right?"
Facing Wang Ye's question, Old Man Zhao turned his head and looked at Director Li. Director Li didn't say anything. Then he looked back at Wang Ye, sighed and nodded and said:
"right!"
After receiving this answer, Wang Ye nodded, took out another cigarette from the cigarette case, put it on the table, pointed it at Director Liang Jinsong who was watching the fun next to him, and asked again:
"Director Liang, the so-called foreign exchange creation means that you need to sell a product to foreigners to earn US dollars, right?"
Liang Jinsong had no expression on his face, but he nodded in recognition and said:
"right!"
Finally, Wang Ye put the two cigarettes together, pushed them in the direction of Director Li, and asked with a smile:
"In that case, Director Li."
"Our machinery factory needs a product to survive, and we also need a product to generate foreign exchange."
"Then why can't these two products be the same product?"
"Achieve both ends at the same time?"
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of everyone present froze again.
Because they never expected that Wang Ye would actually say such a "wrong truth", and the reason why it was said to be a fallacy was of course because of Wang Ye's words. Although there was nothing wrong with what he said at first, when you think about it carefully, the problem is too big!
"Hahaha! Wang Ye, you kid! I'm going to be fooled by you!"
"Although theoretically, what you said is indeed correct, in practice I don't think this plan is feasible."
"After all, your machine factory that has been converted from the military to civilians can only produce small metal products such as pots, pans, rakes, and hoes. It is simply impossible to produce the products that foreigners need!"
"Of course, I welcome you to come up with the actual product and slap me in the face!"
At the end of his speech, Li Gang looked at Wang Ye with a hint of provocation in his smile. It was obvious that this was a move to provoke the general, but Wang Ye did not shy away. He glanced around the crowd and coughed lightly and said:
"Of course, Director Li, you can't be angry when the time comes."
"But before that, please allow me to be arrogant again and teach all leaders and seniors a lesson."
"And this class is called 'On Product Added Value'!"
As soon as Wang Ye finished speaking, Director Li, who was sitting there with a "sneer" on his face just lighting up a cigarette, and Liang Jinsong, who was watching the show with a teacup in his hand, suddenly became solemn in expression, looking at Wang Ye and listening attentively.
