Hearing Gao Yiping's words, Ran Yuying also came to her senses. She looked at Gao Fan, then at Gao Yiping, and asked timidly: "Old Gao, what Xiaofan did is not illegal, right?"
"According to the current policy, it should not be illegal." Gao Yiping said carefully.
"Will the policy change?" Ran Yuying continued to ask.
Gao Yiping hesitated for a moment and said: "It's hard to say this. I chatted privately with some business leaders, and everyone felt that it was unlikely that the policy would be rolled back.
"If you think about it, everyone can see the policies of the past few years. The benefits that the people have received are real. If the policies are to be withdrawn, I am afraid that the people will not agree."
There is a concept in economics called "Pareto optimization", which means to increase at least one person's interests without harming anyone's interests.
In contrast, non-Pareto optimization means improving the welfare of some people while harming the welfare of other people.
China's reform and opening up began with Pareto optimization. From the late 1970s to the early 1980s, the policies introduced by the state were all beneficial to the people. No one's interests would be harmed, so no one would
Oppose reform.
Occasionally, some people complain because they see others getting more benefits than themselves, and they are mentally unbalanced.
Since the mid-1980s, reforms have gradually moved into the "deep water zone". The space for Pareto optimization has been very small, and most policies are non-Pareto.
In other words, the introduction of any measure, while benefiting a certain group, will inevitably cause harm to other groups, and various contradictions begin to arise.
At this time, the country can only weigh the pros and cons, allowing some people to suffer small losses in exchange for greater benefits for others. Those who suffer losses will not suffer losses forever, and the country will follow up
To compensate them in the policy, of course, it will bring some harm to other groups of people.
It was still in the early 1980s, and everyone saw the benefits brought about by reform measures. The so-called "policy must be implemented" was just speculation by some people with rigid ideas. Young and powerful corporate cadres like Gao Yiping still had no interest in reform.
Very supportive and full of optimism about the prospects of reform.
As a time traveler, Gao Fan naturally knows that reforms cannot go backwards, and policies will only become more and more relaxed. It is impossible to treat the commodity economy as a poisonous insect and beast as in the past.
"Mom, don't worry. It's impossible to take back the policy. You haven't gone to Shuinan. Shuinan is full of business people and the economy is very prosperous. Think about it, how old is Director Deng?
He is older than my dad and must have more experience.
"I asked him to open a store in partnership with Chen Xingquan, and he agreed without saying anything. If the policy is to be tightened, wouldn't corporate cadres like him be the most dangerous?"
Gao Fan casually looked for evidence to convince Ran Yuying.
Ran Yuying was a little doubtful. She looked at Gao Yiping and asked: "Lao Gao, does this matter involve you?"
Gao Yiping said: "What does it have to do with me? It's true that I am a state cadre, but I am not in business. Xiaofan has graduated from high school and is an adult. Who he does business with has nothing to do with me.
"His technology is not stolen from our factory, his technology is..., eh, by the way, Xiaofan, how do you know about antifouling coatings?"
"This is the same thing as the catalyst." Gao Fan said, "I saw in the book the antifouling coatings developed abroad, and then I analyzed the principles and designed a formula. Last time Chen Xingquan came to Cangtang,
I gave him the formula and asked him to go back to Renqiao to do experiments.
"He found some ships and applied that paint to people for free. When those ships came back from the sea, the bottoms of the ships were clean and there were no adsorptions such as shells. This shows that my formula is effective."
"My son is so smart!" Ran Yuying said overjoyed.
"Me, me!" Gao Min raised a hand, like a primary school student applying to speak, and yelled.
"You are smart too! My daughter is smarter!" Ran Yuying said angrily.
Gao Yiping naturally didn't care about the routine quarrel between mother and daughter. He asked Gao Fan: "Xiaofan, if you leave a company like this that can earn a gross profit of 1 million a year to Chen Xingquan, you can
Aren’t you worried?”
Gao Fan said: "What's the use of worrying? I can't squat in Renqiao and stare at him. I helped Factory Director Deng because I wanted to find a helper. Maybe he can be of some use when encountering special circumstances.
"
"You are very considerate." Gao Yiping said.
Gao Fan said: "Of course, Director Deng can use it at critical times, and I can't let him get in touch with the business of the paint factory. I told Chen Xingquan to keep this matter a secret from Director Deng."
.”
"Absolutely." Gao Yiping said, "If Lao Deng knew that you could earn 500,000 yuan in gross profit a year, he would definitely be jealous, and he might even come up with some crooked ideas to ruin your business."
"Dad, didn't you say that Factory Director Deng is a pretty good person?" Gao Min said in surprise.
Gao Yiping said: "You must not have the intention to harm others, and you must have the intention to guard against others. I have met Director Deng twice, and my overall impression of him is not bad. But what Xiaofan did was too big and involved
With a profit of 500,000 yuan a year, we can’t trust others too much.”
"500,000 a year, Xiaofan, what do you do with so much money?" Gao Min asked Gao Fan.
Gao Fan smiled and said: "Didn't I say that when you get married, I will give you a house as a dowry? I am making money now just to save money to buy a house."
"Hehe, okay, okay, I'll be waiting." Gao Min was successfully led upstairs, forgetting the previous problems.
Gao Fan turned to Gao Yiping and said: "Dad, actually I started this antifouling paint factory by accident. I didn't expect there was such a big market for antifouling paint. I just wanted to make a little money with Chen Xingquan.
The kind that makes 10,000 to 20,000 a year.”
"Ten thousand or twenty thousand is not a small amount of money. My annual salary is only over 2,000," Gao Yiping said.
Gao Fan said: "This is what I want to say. Dad, in your current position, there is still a lot of money to be made. In the future, if the Ministry of Chemical Industry really chooses our factory to engage in ammonium-to-urine conversion, your power will
It will be even bigger.
"With great power, corruption is easy. How can you walk by the river without getting your shoes wet? In our province's fertilizer system, isn't there already a factory director who was arrested for stretching his hand indiscriminately?
"What I want to say is that from now on, dad, you must be more strict with yourself. Not only should you not be greedy for money, but you will not even accept gifts from others. From now on, in our family, I will be responsible for making money to support the family, and dad will be responsible for being as honest as a flower...
