Along with Wang Ye's greetings, the three people walked through the crowd and walked over. After shaking hands one after another, the gray-haired leader smiled and said:
"We just came here to take a look at the situation. We wouldn't know if we didn't look at it. We were shocked when we saw it. It turns out that the momentum is great!"
"Especially the tricycle. It is indeed a good product. I think I should give you an award!"
"It's called the Product Innovation Award, and it has to be celebrated in a newspaper. It has to be the kind of headline that makes the front page."
"Otherwise, if we wait another year and a half, countless state-owned factories across the country will be producing tricycles, and tricycles can be seen everywhere on the streets of cities, villages, and towns, but no one will know who made these tricycles in the first place. This is not okay!"
"It must be published in the newspaper to make your Red Star Federation famous, and also to make our Luqi Province prestige!"
As soon as these words came out, there was a burst of just right laughter in the carriage. For Wang Ye, this hearty laughter came completely from the heart. After all, if the tricycle can be published in the newspaper, doesn't it mean free advertising?
"You are so complimentary. It is our unshirkable responsibility as a Red Star Federation to contribute to the economic construction of the motherland."
"But as the saying goes: Elders can't deny their gifts, since you said so."
"Then we will be disrespectful!"
As soon as Wang Ye finished speaking, Director Liang almost couldn't help but hide his face. The two were stunned for a moment. The gray-haired leader couldn't help laughing, giving a thumbs up and said:
"Okay! Well done! Only if you dare to accept the honor can you take responsibility!"
"What's so embarrassing about this? It's so generous!"
"Let's go to the car and sit and chat. It should be quiet in the car!"
Obviously, Wang Ye's answer seemed to suit the leader's taste, without being pretentious or pretentious. Then the four of them chatted and walked towards the parking place on the roadside outside the square.
And just when the four people left the place, the young man behind was shocked!
It was him who just introduced the adv motorcycle to this leader. Who would have thought that such an ordinary-looking old man could be such a big official? As for the young man who looks about the same age as himself, he is actually a member of the Red Star United The director of the body!
After a brief moment of astonishment, the young man's surprised expression turned into excitement, and he was ready to brag to his friends!
After a while.
The four people, together with the two accompanying staff, came to the car parked on the roadside. Director Liang got directly into the driver's seat, and Wang Ye got into the passenger seat. The two naturally sat in the back, and the staff could only Waiting below.
Sitting in the car, after the four people exchanged simple greetings, the gray-haired leader praised Wang Ye seriously and said:
"In short, it's a good job. Comrade Wang Ye deserves praise!"
"It sets a good example for our province's light and heavy industrial units. Only by taking the initiative to seek development, researching the market and innovating, and working hard and focusing on production can we produce products that the people need, factories can prosper, the market can be active, and the economy can be prosperous. Only then can we develop!”
"It's a pity that many of our factories have just come out of the planning era and are not yet adapted to many aspects. They are still in the process of exploration. It is very important to have this example of your Red Star Consortium!"
"The power of role models is infinite!"
It must be said that the gray-haired old leader spoke very highly of Wang Ye and the Red Star Alliance. Wang Ye quickly said:
"We will continue to work hard and launch more good products in the future."
"We will live up to the recognition of the people and the expectations of the country and leaders."
Regarding Wang Ye's neither arrogant nor impetuous attitude, the gray-haired leader nodded with satisfaction, and then said with a smile:
"That's fine, I'll wait for your good news next!"
"And if you have any difficulties or problems in the future, please contact our province at any time, and we will try our best to solve them for you!"
Of course, Wang Ye couldn't be polite to the leader's words. He nodded with a smile and said:
"Of course, I won't be polite when the time comes."
"And I believe that with the strong support of the province in the future, our Red Star Consortium will be able to develop stably, quickly, and maintain quality and quantity!"
"Contribute to the economic development of our Ruqi Province and contribute to our country's foreign exchange creation work!"
Hearing Wang Ye say this, a burst of happy laughter suddenly sounded in the carriage. For Wang Ye, he got the leader's promise, and for the gray-haired leader, he also heard what he wanted to hear.
Improving the economy and creating foreign exchange are the focus of our current work!
Just after the gray-haired leader finished speaking, when the atmosphere was relatively relaxed, the leader from Quancheng City who was sitting there said with a smile:
"Comrade Wang Ye, I was wandering over there just now, and I heard that all your motorcycles and tricycles have been sold out!"
"The market feedback is very good! Don't you have any preparations to increase production?"
"It just so happens that we also have a motorcycle manufacturer in Quancheng City. You also used their bikes in your motorcycle competition. They are the Quancheng Motorized Bicycle Factory that produces the Qingqi 15."
"To be honest, their current overall situation is average. They have no new products and no benefits. Fortunately, they still have a group of skilled workers."
"It just so happens that the old leader is here today. I would like to take the liberty to ask, Comrade Wang Ye, are you interested?"
"If you are interested, this factory will be yours!"
As soon as these words came out, the gray-haired leader frowned slightly, and Director Liang's expression paused for a moment, but it suddenly became normal. It seemed that nothing had happened. Under the gaze of everyone, Wang Ye smiled calmly and said:
"Boss, they all say that greed is not enough to swallow an elephant. Now even if I want to, I am powerless!"
"Our consortium has just carried out a large-scale expansion. How can I have the strength to annex such a large-scale factory now? I heard that Qingqi alone has more than 2,000 workers, right? It is larger than the previous machinery factory. !”
Hearing Wang Ye's rejection, although the leader of Quancheng City still smiled, he did not hide the disappointment on his brows. Wang Ye, on the other hand, did not notice it and said with a smile:
"I understand your good intentions, and I even understand your dedication to the economic development of Quancheng."
"But in my opinion, annexation is not the best solution."
As soon as Wang Ye said this, the two leaders sitting in the back row looked at each other, and then the leader from Quancheng City asked curiously:
"What do you mean by this? In your opinion, Comrade Wang Ye."
"What's the best solution?"
Under the gaze of three people, Wang Ye sighed seriously and said:
"You can be so open and honest with me."
"Then I can't hide it, there is no one else here, let's say something from the bottom of our hearts."
"The reason why I say annexation is not a good idea is because even if I, Wang Ye, have three heads and six arms, how many people can I manage? Thirty thousand? Fifty thousand? One hundred thousand? I have seen the end. Let's do some calculations. In the end, how many people can I merge on behalf of the consortium? Factories? How many factories can you lead to turn losses into profits? "
"And in our Luqi Province, there are at least tens of thousands of large, medium and small factories. Can I, Wang Ye, annex those that are not doing well?"
"This is impossible! And it doesn't make sense, right?"
Regarding Wang Ye's statement, the two leaders in the back row nodded slightly in approval.
Because the fact is as Wang Ye said, merger is just a stopgap measure, the most intuitive solution visible to the naked eye, but it will not last long. We can't just throw all the loss-making factories to Wang Ye in the end, right?
Not to mention that it will crush the alliance, even if it is really possible to do this, it cannot be done like this!
Speaking of which.
Wang Ye showed an embarrassed smile on his face, touched his nose and said:
"Actually, I had an idea for a long time."
"It's definitely not the best, but it's a relatively good way I can come up with."
"It's just that this idea is not very mature. I didn't dare to bring it up in the past. I was afraid that the province and the city would laugh at me for being a newborn calf and not afraid of tigers. I was overestimating my capabilities!"
"But now, since we have talked about this issue, I will boldly say this."
Hearing what Wang Ye said, the gray-haired leader waved his hand with a smile and said:
"It's okay, feel free to say it!"
"It's all for national construction, there's nothing to be embarrassed about! Speak!"
Then Wang Ye nodded, and after two seconds of silence as if he was organizing words in his mind, under the curious eyes of the three people in the carriage, Wang Ye said seriously:
"I just said that cum is not the best way, so what is it?"
“In my opinion, the key to great industrial division of labor is to build the province’s industrial chain!”
"Take motorcycles as an example. In the future, if our Red Star Consortium provides engines, Quancheng Machinery Factory provides frames, and other factories in surrounding areas provide various equipment, such as tires, wheels, fuel tanks, and lights, , such as brake discs, such as brake drums, such as brakes, such as seats, such as pedals, such as wires, such as handlebars, and so on! "
"Each factory produces a single component and adopts the flow production line model to achieve the lowest cost."
"Finally, if Quancheng Motorcycle Factory purchases these parts from these factories, their production lines will complete the assembly, and then sell them on the market."
"So during the market sales process, are the costs of their motorcycles lower than those of other factories? And if similar products are priced lower, will more customers buy them?"
"Our current labor costs are even very low. If we export them in the future, will similar products be cheaper than foreign products?"
"Will it be able to capture a part of the international sales market share?"
"As a result, won't the country's scarce foreign exchange come in?"
At that moment, Wang Ye's seductive voice echoed in everyone's ears, and the carriage fell into silence.
Wang Ye didn't speak anymore, just sat quietly.
In fact, Wang Ye has been planning for the division of labor in the industry a long time ago. After all, the industry in the integration of "industry, academia and research" includes "academy and research" as the core, whether it is the theoretical core or the geographical core. Create a complete upstream and downstream industrial chain.
Only by finally forming a production and manufacturing cluster can we truly achieve "bigger and stronger".
This step cannot be achieved by relying solely on the Red Star Consortium, at least it cannot be achieved by relying on the current consortium, and the future "consortium" may actually become a consortium, through various methods such as shareholding and holding, etc. It has grown into a giant conglomerate covering the upstream and downstream industrial chains, which is another meaning of Wang Ye’s original name.
Today's China, today's state-owned factories, and today's Red Star Consortium are actually still in the era of barbaric growth, and the proportion of self-sufficiency is very high. This is a problem left over from past historical development, and it cannot even be called a drawback. It’s just the limitations of the times.
To give a simple example, the original Quancheng Qingqi was called "State-owned Quancheng Bicycle Accessories Factory". After they produced accessories for a few years and decided to produce bicycles, they became "Quancheng Bicycle Factory". After producing bicycles for a few more years, they We decided to produce motorcycles, introduced foreign 50cc engine technology, and produced the Qingqi 15 Hei Lao Bustard, which is a bicycle with an engine mounted on it.
Obviously, a problem can be found in the whole process. They hardly import any parts from outside. All parts are produced in their own factories. This is called self-sufficiency.
In the past era of inconvenient transportation and planning, it was a good type of small-scale economy.
However, with the development of reform and opening up, and the market becoming increasingly active, this economic model became difficult to maintain due to cost issues. In normal history, from the mid-1980s, more and more state-owned factories introduced foreign production lines. technology, and then the vigorous industrial division of labor began.
In the 1990s, as China joined the WTO, China also became part of the global industrial division of labor. It produced labor-intensive products to create foreign exchange. In this process, China began to struggle to build its own entire industrial chain and form a domestic industry. The great division of labor attempts to conquer various light and heavy industries and manufacturing fields and master the entire production process from low-end to high-end.
The reason why we did this was because it was discovered at that time that the international industrial division of labor was in a sense a scam and a false proposition, because in this process, the capitalist developed countries that started earlier could use patents and technological advantages to Harvest the world's wealth, while developing countries like China can only engage in densely populated low-end manufacturing and earn negligible profits.
More importantly, as part of the great international division of labor, it will be constrained by international trade. To put it bluntly, it is a bottleneck. And after the fall of the Soviet Union, China has become a special existence. Naturally, it cannot leave the country's security to it. The hand of another country, trusting in the benevolence of the enemy.
But in any case, industrial modernization cannot be separated from the industrial division of labor, nor from the development of industrial chains and industrial clusters. If China can achieve this step internally as soon as possible, then it will have stronger competition internationally. force!
This is also Wang Ye's most noble goal!
In addition, regarding the province's industrial chain, Wang Ye's initial idea was to wait for the consortium to develop further, and then find a way to raise this issue at least after the next year. But today it has come to this point, and he flatly rejected this leader, so he has to Say something nice, right? That’s why I said it in advance.
"Listen to your words and I will be enlightened!"
"Jinsong has praised you many times, saying that you are not only a top student in technology, but also a good person in economics!"
"Now I am convinced. I think this is a good plan!"
"Wang Ye, go ahead and do it! If you need the province's cooperation for anything, you must open your mouth and don't be polite!"
"To be honest, I'm starting to look forward to that day."
"The province's industrial division of labor? The province's industrial chain? What a spectacular and grand picture that must be!"
"Hahaha!"
Finally, the gray-haired leader couldn't help laughing.
