County Government. Director's Office!
Li Changqing poured water for Zhou Yang who was sitting on the chair and said, "You are finally back. If you don't come back, I will go to the capital to find you!"
Zhou Yang smiled and said, "Why are you so anxious about something that you can't even wait for so many days?"
"Why don't you worry about the ham factory?"
"What's wrong with the ham sausage factory? Is it because of insufficient production capacity or something?" Zhou Yang said.
"A week ago, the eighth production line in the factory was officially put into operation. So far, the annual production capacity of our ham sausage factory has reached 80,000 tons. If we fully engage in production, the annual output value can reach 270 million yuan."
Then Li Changqing changed his voice and said again: "Originally this was a good thing, but soon the ham factory discovered that there was not enough potato flour, and other raw materials became in short supply."
"More importantly, six more production lines will arrive before March this year. By then, the annual output of the ham sausage factory will reach more than 140,000 tons. By then we will inevitably face a shortage of raw materials, so I want to find you. Let’s discuss this!”
Seeing Li Changqing's frown, Zhou Yang smiled and said, "Old Li, don't be anxious, this is a great thing!"
"It's a good thing, but is it too big?"
"Yes, the shortage of raw materials means that the production of our ham sausage has increased and it has been recognized by the people. It also means that the product ham sausage can support an entire industrial chain." Zhou Yang said.
"How do you say this?"
Obviously, Li Changqing didn't understand Zhou Yang's statement.
Zhou Yang was not pretentious and immediately explained: "Because the output of the ham sausage factory was insufficient before, it could only exist as a best-selling product and could not have much impact on the surrounding industries."
“For example, in the pig breeding in our county, although part of it is supplied to ham factories, the consumption only accounts for one-tenth of the annual pig slaughter, and most of the pigs are eventually shipped to Beijing, Qingcheng and other places as meat! "
Li Changqing nodded and said, "Yes, in 1977 our annual pork output was 35,000 tons, but we only consumed 4,800 tons of ham."
"In 1978, the output of pork exceeded 100,000 tons, but the consumption of the ham sausage factory was less than 20,000 tons. The impact is really not big!"
Zhou Yang said again: "This is not the most important thing. Think about it, the population size of the city has been basically stable for a period of time, but the breeding industry in the surrounding areas is booming. The pigs raised in these places will Are you constantly being sent to big cities, do you know what will happen in the future?”
"what's the situation?"
"Supply exceeds demand! That means there is too much pork and too few people eat meat. The result is that the pork cannot be sold!" Zhou Yang said.
Since it is a planned economy these days, product prices will not suddenly plummet.
However, if the product supply is too large, it will seriously affect the healthy development of the breeding industry.
"Hey, it's really possible!" Li Changqing frowned.
"Lao Li, you don't have to worry, at least this won't happen in the short term!"
Then Li Yi continued: "Back to the topic, as the output of the ham sausage factory continues to increase, the demand for pork will continue to increase. We are equivalent to adding an insurance to the county's breeding industry, even if the pork supply continues to increase. No matter how many there are, we can ensure that local farmers’ pigs are marketable!”
"At the same time, we can also rely on this to vigorously develop pig breeding, broiler breeding, potato starch processing, potato planting and other industries, and these industries will drive slaughtering and processing, feed production, fertilizer production and other industries. This is industry-driven ."
"So, what the county needs to do now is not to worry about this or that, but to seize the opportunity to engage in industrial construction!"
"You mean to build a potato flour factory?" Li Changqing asked.
Zhou Yang immediately said: "Not only the potato flour factory, but also the potato purchase and storage station, the feed factory, and even the veterinary station must be built. As long as the supporting facilities needed by the ham sausage factory can be included in the construction plan, once these The industries have reached a certain scale, and our Yunshan County is no longer a traditional agricultural county!"
Hearing Zhou Yang's words, Li Changqing said excitedly: "Hahaha, listening to you is better than ten years of reading. It's really enlightening, great!"
"Don't be too quick to be happy. Although the blueprint is good, it is very dangerous to maintain so many industries solely by one ham sausage factory." Zhou Yang said.
"what is it now?"
"Eggs cannot be put in one basket. In addition to the ham sausage factory, we can also build some canneries and so on."
Then Zhou Yang continued: "In short, our purpose is to find digestion channels for the primary products in the hands of ordinary people. As long as this goal can be achieved, then the entire industry chain will be healthy and can be maintained!"
Li Changqing nodded and said: "I understand what you mean. I will discuss it with the comrades in the county as soon as possible and come up with a detailed plan!"
"good!"
Then Zhou Yang said again: "By the way, there is something I forgot to tell you. CCTV is holding a large-scale party during the Spring Festival this year. It is a good opportunity to promote ham. I suggest you hurry up and contact Lao Yang. Let him save a good place for you!"
Li Changqing's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said immediately: "Okay, I'll contact you later...forget it, I'll just send someone to the capital tomorrow!"
Although Li Changqing knows that advertising costs money, and there is a lot of it.
But after witnessing the huge boost TV advertising had on product sales, he knew it was money well spent.
Think about their ham sausage. Before it was advertised on CCTV, the sales volume could only be said to be average.
However, after a week of advertising, sales more than doubled, which was much better than sending hundreds of salespeople everywhere to sell products.
Four months have passed now, and their ham sausage production lines have increased from one to eight, all of which have caused a shortage of raw materials. The supply is still in short supply, which shows how effective this TV advertisement is.
"It's okay to send someone over directly, but it's best to say hello to Lao Yang in advance!" Zhou Yang said.
"That's for sure, otherwise there won't be anyone to receive our people when they arrive!"
Then Li Changqing changed his voice and said again: "By the way, the county is discussing something these days, which is related to your Babaoliang Village. Do you want to listen?"
"What's going on?"
"Someone proposed to move the government seat of the Solidarity Commune to Babaoliang Village, and there are quite a few people who support it. What do you think?" Li Changqing asked.
"How come you suddenly remembered this?" Zhou Yang frowned.
"The cause of the matter was a letter of complaint from the principal of Unity Middle School. He reported that your village school secretly poached students from his school, which caused a sharp drop in the number of students in their school this year. He asked Babaoliang Middle School to stop this behavior and return those students. ..”
Hearing this, Zhou Yang was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Impossible, our village school is almost overcrowded, how can we go to their school to recruit people?"
"Don't worry, listen to me first!"
Then Li Changqing continued: "We don't believe you would do such a thing. It's completely unnecessary! But since they have sent the complaint letter to the county, we still have to investigate. This investigation really found the problem. !”
"What's the problem?"
"Our investigation found that in the past year alone, the number of students in Tuanjie Middle School has decreased by more than 300, accounting for about half of all students in the entire school. Except for a small number of dropouts, the rest of the lost children have all gone to you. Got it!"
Then Li Changqing continued: "After further investigation, we found that this situation not only happens in Tuanjie Middle School, but also in schools in Taijimiao, Xipingshan, Erdong and other places where students come to attend your school."
"It's just that those places are a bit far away, and there are fewer people running there. It's not as obvious as Tuanjie Middle School, so the school leaders didn't report it!"
Zhou Yang knew that what Li Changqing said was true, and he also knew about it, but he didn't expect that the loss of students from Unity Middle School would be so serious.
Thinking of this, he asked again: "Then why does this matter involve the relocation of the commune location?"
Li Changqing smiled and said: "Now that something has happened, you have to think about how to solve it, right? Some people say that those students should go back, but some people think that this is inappropriate. After all, it is the freedom of each parent to go to school. How can the county force people to order!”
“Just when the county didn’t know what to do, someone suddenly came up with a bold idea. Since all the students from Tuanjie Middle School want to go to you, and you have applied to build a separate middle school, then we might as well turn Tuanjie Middle School into a separate one. Let’s just merge with you.”
Zhou Yang nodded and said: "This is a good idea..."
Before he finished speaking, Li Changqing said: "We also think it is good, but soon the comrades from the supply and marketing system also spoke up, saying that they wanted to merge the Unity Supply and Marketing Cooperative with the supply and marketing cooperative in your village. The reason is that such a small place does not need to do so. Two supply and marketing cooperatives.”
"Later, the leadership team of the Solidarity Commune also said that since the development of Daying Town is far inferior to that of your Babaoliang Village, their cadres go to your place every two days, and sometimes they spend more time in your village than They all work in the commune office.”
"So someone suggested that we move the commune there too. Some people suggested it and others agreed, so this happened!"
After listening to Li Changqing's words, Zhou Yang was somewhat speechless. This matter was serious.
We all know that economically prosperous areas have a siphon effect on surrounding areas with slow development, but they didn’t expect that their small village would go too far and even the higher-level government would be tempted!
But Zhou Yang knew that if the commune government moved to Babaoliang Village, it would not necessarily be a good thing for the village.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yang couldn't help but frown...
