Chapter 33 Changes
Time soon entered the end of December 1977.
Mr. Deng delivered a series of speeches this year. After a period of brewing, he finally returned to the central leadership.
The above matter is far away, but Secretary Liu in the province took a wrong step.
As a result, he was removed from all positions in the province and transferred directly from Longjiang to retire elsewhere.
No one expected such a sudden decision. Secretary Liu had just served as the top leader in the province for less than a year, because his attitude towards the superiors was wrong. Liu himself directly talked to Gu Debai, the people of Hei Province.
Yang Hongjian, the military representative in the automobile factory, immediately sat on wax, his backer fell out, and Yang Hongjian became a stray dog.
The rumors like this spread very quickly. As soon as the people fell over there, the relevant departments in the entire provincial capital would know.
The news naturally reached Jiang'an Automobile Factory. At around 8 o'clock in the morning, the factory door should have been wide open, but now it only has a small door opened.
"Yang Hongjian is here!" Someone hid in the door and looked for the figure of the military representative on the road.
With a "bang", even the small door was closed.
Yang Hongjian rode his bicycle and shot from a distance to see that the factory door was sealed. The workers looked at him coldly.
He sighed, turned his bicycle and walked slowly backwards.
Lin Xiangrong stood behind the crowd, saw Yang Hongjian's lonely figure, and sighed. He turned around and walked back to the workshop, and said to Lin Johnson: "The person is gone."
Lin Qiangsheng was still laying the drawings on the table, drawing something. Zou Xue and others came to see each other from time to time, and asked around Lin Qiangsheng and said a few words. Their expressions were very happy, and the little master finally came back.
Lin Qiangsheng heard his father's voice and turned around and said, "It's good to leave. Father, you should hurry up and urge the workers to calm down. Then tell the workers and masters about their children and tell them that the factory will let the workers and children enter the factory. This is better, which will not only eliminate bad luck, but also boost morale!"
Lin Xiangrong looked at his son and finally said, "Son, what do you do next time? Tell me to dad!"
Lin Qiangsheng scratched his head and said to his father with a smile: "Okay."
Lin Xiangrong walked closer to the table, looked at the new drawings drawn by his son, and asked in confusion: "What machine is this you are drawing?"
Lin Johnson said: "I plan to draw a set of radial tire processing equipment. The cars produced in our factory now use bias tires, which not only have low service life, but also have poor safety. I want the cars produced in our factory to use real car tires!"
Lin Xiangrong asked with interest: "Is this a radial tire production equipment drawing?" He quickly flipped through the drawings drawn by his son, and made Lin Xiangrong look at it for a while.
Lin Johnson has marked the notes on the drawings. To produce radial tires, the first thing to do is to establish a rubber refining workshop, which includes a carbon black conveying system, a small material weighing system, an auxiliary machine, a dense mixing machine, and a start-up mixing machine.
Then there is the component workshop, which contains the tread extrusion system, other pure glue component extrusion systems, calendering machines, cutting machines, wire ring winding machines, and wire ring forming machines; there is also a molding workshop: forming machine; vulcanization workshop: vulcanization machine.
For many equipment, Lin Johnson only drew a rough sketch. Some of these equipment are manufactured by manufacturers of oblique tires, and they can be directly taken over and modified. This integration also saved Lin Johnson a lot of time to make drawings.
The development level of tires in China is very backward! As far as Lin Johnson knows, there are only one or two domestic companies producing radial tires, which are still research-based productions, and they are not on the scale at all. They cannot use ordinary vehicles. They are military-industrial units.
"What are these?" Lin Xiangrong asked his son while looking. Even though he was an old drawing maker, he didn't understand what equipment he was when he saw the drawings drawn by his son.
Lin Qiangsheng took a look and said, "It is a finished uniformity test machine, a dynamic balance test machine, and an X-ray test machine. The first two are essential equipment for car tire factories. The latter one, I want to buy one from the unit that produces medical equipment and modify it."
Lin Xiangrong nodded and asked with a smile: "Johnson, how did you think of drawing this? Where have you seen it?"
Lin Qiangsheng smiled and said, "I guess the province will arrange people to our factory in the end, but the number of people will be smaller. In this way, there will be two factories, and you will be better equipped with them, and there is room for turning around, not!"
Lin Xiangrong smiled and touched Lin Johnson's head, nodded with relief, and said, "It's good that you can think so. Just get less trouble for your dad in the future!"
Lin Johnson smiled awkwardly, avoided his father's eyes, and picked up the pen to continue making pictures.
The province indeed planned to send people to the factory, and Zheng Yongmin and Chang Yuanting were both called to the Industrial Bureau to have a conversation. The two agreed to come back to appease the workers' ideological work and contribute to solving the difficulties in the province.
Director Qin Qidong talked to them in person and persuaded them with great thought. The two had to come back and talk to the workers.
At the end of 1977, the province's agriculture encountered a considerable blow. In the spring and summer this year, a severe drought that had not been encountered in decades, causing considerable trouble to agricultural production, and the province's grain output was severely reduced.
Under such circumstances, many educated youth could not stand it in the countryside and demanded to return to the city. The farmers did not have any surplus food either!
The educated youth, if they have any relationship, they will find relationships, but if they don’t have any relationship, they will run back to the city directly.
Due to the large number of educated youths in the provincial capital, it has put a lot of pressure on both the family and society. There have been signs of instability in social order.
Lin Qiangsheng thought to himself, could this sudden drought in the country be the driving force behind the return of educated youth to the city?!
After considering many immature ideas, Lin Johnson had to hurry up and get on the horse!
Under such circumstances, the establishment of a car factory is undoubtedly highly valued by the leaders of the province. Such an extremely large-scale enterprise can solve many problems!
A while ago, due to the control of some people, this recruitment became a means to win people's hearts. Now it is time to get back on track.
The city officially released the news of Jiang'an Automobile Factory recruiting workers. This news was published in major newspapers in the province, and immediately brought unprecedented hope to the educated youth who returned to the city!
The leaders in the province listened to the report of Zheng Chang and the others, as well as the suggestions of experts and scholars. After discussion, they decided to reduce the scale of recruitment appropriately, not to be aggressive, be cautious, and not to create burden on the company.
In particular, it was decided to leave a quota for the original employees of the automobile factory first, which was originally the default welfare of major units. It also had to take care of some related households in the province, which was impossible to avoid. In this way, 500 workers were recruited in society, and the overall number of employees in the automobile factory was over 1,000.
"Director Qin, we plan to adopt the method of recruiting workers in society this time. We don't want some unsuitable people. Please communicate with the leaders in this regard!" Chang Yuanting said to Qin Qidong.
Qin Qidong sat on the chair, thought for a while, nodded, and said, "This is also the right one. The people they recruit will inevitably be of different quality. If you think it is inappropriate, just send your personal relationship back to the bureau."
After saying that, he looked at Zheng Yongmin and Chang Yuanting and said with a smile: "Old Zheng, Lao Chang, you must do your best! We should do our only automobile manufacturing factory in the province and build it! Our comrades from the industry went to the outside province for a meeting and talked to comrades from other provinces about our automobile factory, which was very exciting! Although we don't build many cars now, we don't have to apply for scarce foreign exchange to buy imported cars, right? And your cars are not bad. After continuous improvement, the performance has been greatly improved. That's great!"
After Qin Qidong said that, he smiled loudly, grabbed the water cup and drank a sip of water, and continued, "Secretary Yang, the second-in-commander in the province, will be promoted to the top-in soon! He attaches great importance to your automobile factory and mentioned you many times at the meeting. You must implement the work in the factory in your heart!"
Zheng Yongmin and Chang Yuanting nodded one after another. They knew that the second-in-command Secretary Yang was the one who came to their factory to inspect, and was not the same person as the CEO Liu who went down.
The two of them were still very grateful to Secretary Yang for supporting the automobile factory at a critical moment.
"Yes, Director Qin! We will definitely do our job well when we go back!" Zheng Yongmin and Chang Yuanting said with assurance.
Qin Qidong didn't mention anything about sending people to the factory. After hearing the promises from the two, he smiled and sent them out of the office. When the top leader had just stepped down and the second leader had just taken office, Qin Qidong decided to keep a low profile first.
