Leader Cheng said to Factory Director Yang: "This guy must be here to get some benefits. He hasn't changed at all after so many years."
Factory Director Yang laughed loudly and said: "Boss Cheng, you don't know him well yet. This guy has plucked his hair. You just said you would give him a favor. He will definitely come and ask for it."
Leader Cheng also laughed.
Lin Fan walked a few steps quickly, came to the side of the two leaders, and said: "Why do the two leaders think so happy? Are you very satisfied with me, a ham sausage?"
Director Yang smiled and said: "I am satisfied, not only with the ham, but also with the milk powder and soda!"
Leader Cheng nodded and said: "Yes, I really underestimate you. How long have you been doing? You have done so many things. It really makes me look bad!"
What Leader Cheng said was correct. When Lin Fan started the dairy factory, he was the one who recommended Lin Fan to the position despite all the opposition.
Only a few months have passed, and Lin Fan's dairy factory has already begun to make a profit.
This is not something ordinary people can do. Many state-owned factories cannot support themselves.
Basically, we rely on government subsidies to survive.
Of course, this has little to do with the factories themselves. Many factories have their own limitations.
Take automobile factories for example. According to common sense, automobile factories should be the most profitable.
But in fact, car factories are losing money every year.
Why? Because it does not have market liquidity, no one will buy this thing.
It's either the government or major factories that buy it.
But if you buy a car produced by a car factory, you won’t get much money.
Excluding the cost of raw materials, each car is just hard-earned money.
Even the workers' wages are not enough, let alone other workers' food, drink and year-end benefits.
So car factories are losing money every year, but are they going to do this?
It must be done. If we don’t do it, there will be no cars, and the entire transportation network in China will be cut off.
You know, this is not just true for automobile factories, but also for shipyards, including railway systems.
In addition to these, there are many companies that also follow this model. Their existence is to ensure people's livelihood, so they cannot be banned.
They cannot ban it, so naturally they need the state and their local governments to keep investing money in them.
China is a big country with responsible people. If you want your people to live a better life, you have to worry more.
As for Lin Fan, the factory has turned from a loss to a profit after only a few months of operation.
Being able to take care of himself completely, this is no longer a miracle for the Forty-Nine City Government.
All we can say is that the impossible happened.
This made Leader Cheng’s face look longer, and it also showed that Leader Cheng’s eyesight on people was vicious and accurate!
Leader Cheng smiled and patted Lin Fan on the shoulder and said, "Xiao Fan, you are doing really well. Keep up the hard work and I believe you will continue to create miracles."
Lin Fan said with a smile: "Don't worry, I promise I won't let you down, but, but"
Lin Fan hesitated to speak. He wanted to ask what the surprise that Leader Cheng just said about giving him was.
But it's not a good idea to ask directly. After all, Lin Fan is also a face-conscious person. It's a bit embarrassing to ask for something so straightforwardly.
Leader Cheng said with a smile: "It's just what?"
Factory Director Yang looked at Lin Fan with a half-smile but not a smile. He knew that this was Leader Cheng teasing Lin Fan.
Lin Fan saw the expressions of Director Yang and Leader Cheng and knew that these two old naughty boys were teasing him.
He no longer cared about his own shame and said directly: "Leader Cheng, are you satisfied with my ham sausage? If so, what is the surprise you are talking about?"
Leader Cheng and Director Yang looked at each other, and then burst out laughing. Leader Cheng said, "This guy is indeed like this. He's not taking advantage enough!"
Factory Manager Yang smiled and nodded: "Yes, there has been no change at all. If you don't let him take advantage, that would be the same as killing him."
Lin Fan scratched his head in embarrassment and said: "Oh, two leaders, don't make fun of me. I am from a small family, so I have to be careful with my calculations."
After listening to Lin Fan's words, Leader Cheng and Director Yang laughed even louder...
Finally, after laughing for a while, Leader Cheng said: "You boy, you will no longer be a small family in the future. I am very satisfied with this ham sausage. Not only am I satisfied, but the people in the army are also satisfied!"
Lin Fan looked at Leader Cheng in confusion and said, "Leader Cheng, what do you mean? What do you mean the people in the army are also satisfied?"
Leader Cheng smiled and said: "What else can it mean? The people in the army are very satisfied and have decided to purchase a batch of ham sausages from you to use as rations for the army!"
When Lin Fan heard what Leader Cheng said, he jumped up happily and asked, "Really? Leader Cheng, do the people in the army really want to use the ham produced by our dairy factory?"
Leader Cheng and Factory Director Yang both nodded, indicating that this was indeed the case.
After Lin Fan got the affirmative answer, he became excited.
Lin Fan has always maintained high respect for Chinese soldiers.
It is no exaggeration to say that Chinese soldiers are the most lovable people and the most respectable people in any era.
I won’t go into details about their achievements here. I can describe them in one sentence. The comfort of China is guarded by these most lovely people with their blood and lives.
An accidental idea of his could provide usable food for the soldiers in the army. This was something Lin Fan never dreamed of.
You know, the country is not very stable now, and there are still many foreign forces who are thinking about overthrowing New China all the time.
These lovely people are still protecting this country with their flesh and blood.
It's just that in recent years, disasters have continued, which means they can't eat much. Although it can't be said that they are all hungry to defend China, it's almost the same.
Although the appearance of ham sausages could not solve the problem, it at least allowed them to supplement their meat supply, which can be said to be a great contribution. After Lin Fan finished his excitement, he fell silent again.
Director Yang asked with some confusion: "What's wrong, Xiaofan? Why are you suddenly unhappy?"
Lin Fan said helplessly: "Leader Cheng, Director Yang, although this is a good thing, my current productivity cannot keep up at all, and I cannot produce so much ham."
After listening to this, Leader Cheng and Director Yang laughed again.
Factory Director Yang patted Lin Fan on the shoulder and said, "Don't we know this yet? Since you are asked to supply the army, I will not let you rely on such a small workshop to meet such a huge demand!"
Lin Fan's eyes lit up. Could it be that he wanted to invest more in expanding his dairy factory?
Lin Fan asked happily: "Leader Cheng, Director Yang, do you want me to expand the dairy factory?"
Leader Cheng and Factory Director Yang nodded and agreed with Lin Fan's words.
The corner of Lin Fan's mouth raised. It had only been a few months and his dairy factory could be expanded!
In fact, Lin Fan still hopes to expand his dairy factory.
Why? A very important reason is that the current dairy factories are too small and dilapidated.
I made these things by myself and pieced them together by myself.
Including milk powder, in fact, to a large extent, it relies on foreign technology and machinery.
But those are just some top-notch machines, and the basic machines are junk goods bought from various factories.
If you want to meet the needs of the market and become bigger and stronger, you must have good machines and good workers.
Fortunately, the workers said that after several months of training, these new employees who entered the iron factory have become basically proficient in using the machines.
But it was too difficult to get professional machines because Lin Fan's dairy factory was too small.
There won't be a factory in China that specifically produces machines for Lin Fan's dairy factory.
This greatly prevented further development of dairy plants.
The reason why Lin Fan came up with these things was, to a large extent, to let Cheng lead them to discover business opportunities, so that they could make additional investment.
Once the Forty-Nine City Government recognizes its product, it will allow it to expand.
Then you can step by step from no one pay attention to an existence that everyone looks up to.
But Lin Fan didn't expect that the ham sausage would be so successful this time.
This led to Leader Cheng and the others to recommend it to the army and accelerate their plans.
Lin Fan asked happily: "Can I customize a batch of machines?"
The reason why the machines in the current dairy factory are able to produce is all because Wang Jian and the others put them together piece by piece.
Once a batch of machines are customized according to Lin Fan's needs, it will greatly save time and production costs.
Those workers who have experience can quickly get started by using new machines.
When the time comes, a new batch of workers will be recruited and someone will be there to teach them.
Leader Cheng nodded and said: "Of course, this is to serve the army. All things and people must give unconditional support! If you think of a new machine, as long as you have the machine drawings, we can produce it for you."
Lin Fan smiled. Nothing else. He had too many drawings.
In order to make milk powder, Lin Fan acquired an American company.
Whether it is a basic machine or a high-end machine, the drawings are all available.
Although it may not be as sophisticated as the domestic level, once it is produced, it will be much better than it is now.
As for the ham sausage machine, this thing does not require too much advanced technology, the recipe is the most important thing.
Wang Jian has already made the drawings of the machine. As long as domestic factories are willing to accept it, it will be very simple to make.
Not to mention soda, just give Lin Fan a few more machines currently used in China.
Lin Fan explained his needs, and Leader Cheng nodded in agreement.
Leader Cheng smiled and said: "In this case, Xiaofan, you can submit a report and I will ask the factory that can provide the machine to contact you. You can choose as you like."
Lin Fan laughed loudly and hummed, then said: "Okay, thank you very much, Leader Cheng, Director Yang, you have really solved a big trouble for me."
Leader Cheng shook his head and said: "No, it was you who solved the big trouble for us. How many more people do you plan to recruit for this expansion?"
In fact, this issue is the key point.
No, it should be said that this issue is the focus above.
They not only have to consider things like taxes, but also employment issues.
At the end of the ten years, Sijiucheng was almost filled with people returning to their hometowns, and a large number of people seeking employment were waiting in Sijiucheng for government arrangements.
As long as Lin Fan expands production and recruits a large number of workers and administrative staff, the pressure on the Forty-Nine City Government can be greatly relieved. This is why Leader Cheng was so anxious after receiving the ham sausage sent by Lin Fan.
The reason why he went to the army to discuss business.
Lin Fan said with a smile: "This time it must be expanded to five times the current size. I plan to recruit another 800 people!"
After hearing Lin Fan's words, Leader Cheng frowned.
These days, he has been running around, and has arranged a large number of talents to work in various factories in Sijiu City.
This is all because he sacrificed his own face and just stuffed a bunch of people into various factories.
But it wasn't enough. There were at least a thousand people, and he couldn't arrange it.
Among them are many college students who have returned to their hometowns. These people are talented people, and they would not be willing to let them become ordinary workers.
But there is no other way, you have to arrange a job so that you can support your family.
That's why Leader Cheng frowned after hearing Lin Fan's statement that he only needed 800 people.
With this number of people, even if all these college students are allowed to work as workers, it will not be enough.
Lin Fanhui misunderstood, thinking that he said too much, and quickly changed his words: "What, Leader Cheng, six hundred people are enough, but I don't know how much supplies the army needs, six hundred people may be reluctant.
"
Leader Cheng waved his hand and said: "No, that's not what I meant. What I meant was that with only 800 people, can we satisfy such a large order?"
Lin Fan suddenly understood that Leader Cheng was not dissatisfied with the fact that he wanted more people, but that he wanted less people.
Lin Fan did not directly express his thoughts this time, but asked: "Leader Cheng, how many people do you think I can recruit here?"
Leader Cheng pondered for a moment and then said, "How about expanding to a scale of 3,000 people?"
Lin Fan took a deep breath when he heard Leader Cheng's words.
Good guy, I thought before that if I wanted to get 800 people, I would have already opened my mouth like a lion.
Unexpectedly, Leader Cheng was even more ruthless. In one sentence, he directly expanded his dairy factory more than ten times.
With three thousand people, it can be called a big factory.
There are so many food factories in Sijiucheng, but none has more than 1,500 people.
My own small workshop with only about 300 people has expanded more than ten times.
Is that a little too much? With so many people coming in, how are you going to take care of your own workers?
You can't recruit such a large number of people by yourself and keep them in vain without any work, right?
Let’s not talk about our own problems. Can the Forty-Nine City Government agree?
Lin Fan asked somewhat sarcastically: "Leader Cheng, is this too much? I have no place to arrange for three thousand people. The key is that it was arranged by the superiors."
Even if Leader Cheng and Director Yang agree, as long as other cadres disagree, Leader Cheng and the others cannot ignore it.
Leader Cheng may also feel that the number he mentioned is a bit excessive, but only three thousand people can digest the remaining college students.
In order to retain talents, Leader Cheng felt that he could take some risks.
Leader Cheng let out a long sigh and said: "Xiaofan, it's not that Leader Cheng is making things difficult for you. You know, so many people have returned home without jobs, which gives us a headache, and there are many college students there."
Lin Fan suddenly realized that no wonder Leader Cheng had taken such a big step.
It turns out there is such a reason.
Lin Fan understood the mood of Leader Cheng very well, and he couldn't bear to leave it on him.
Young people who can come to schools like these in Sijiucheng can be said to be the pillars of the country.
Isn't it a waste of resources to leave them all idle?
Lin Fan asked: "Leader Cheng, how many college students need to be arranged?"
Leader Cheng said: "There are probably more than a thousand people."
Lin Fan felt a little nervous, even though he wanted to help Leader Cheng.
But to be honest, Lin Fan was still a little reluctant to ask these guys to come over.
You have to understand that the college students of this era are not the college students of future generations.
There are already very few people who can go to college, let alone so many college students in 49 cities.
Everyone's temper and character may be different from ordinary people.
Managing these people is probably like fighting a war every day.
This is really not something that ordinary people can do.
It's not that Lin Fan doesn't have confidence, it's mainly that he's lazy and he believes he can manage these people.
But he is really too lazy to manage these people, so many geniuses are in the dairy factory.
It is estimated that if one is not careful, a big hole may be opened for Lin Fan.
In that case, Lin Fan wouldn't have to do anything else every day. Watching them would completely take up all his thoughts.
Lin Fan said to Leader Cheng with some embarrassment: "Leader Cheng, it is definitely not possible to arrange for so many people to enter the dairy factory. Even if I could arrange it, they would not be willing to do it. These are all laborious tasks for me.
That’s all.”
Leader Cheng sighed and said, "There's nothing we can do. We can't just abandon them. So Xiaofan, how many people do you think you can arrange?"
Lin Fan wanted to say that I couldn't even arrange this, but obviously he couldn't say this, otherwise he would not give face to Leader Cheng.
Lin Fan considered it for a moment and said, "We can arrange for three hundred people, including administrative and technical personnel. If there are any more, I won't be able to accommodate them."
It's really hard to take it anymore. Lin Fan doesn't plan to arrange a few of them, including administration. Lin Fan hopes that the people who come to him will be the best technicians.
Because technicians, as long as they are assigned some research tasks, they will not cause trouble.
In this way, he can save a lot of worry.
Leader Cheng shook his head and refused. One of the big reasons why he did so many things was to ask Lin Fan to accept these college students.
Three hundred people are just a drop in the bucket and simply not enough.
Seeing Leader Cheng shaking his head, Lin Fan asked: "Leader Cheng, can I ask, what are these college students mainly studying?"
Leader Cheng thought for a moment and replied: "Mainly those majoring in machinery, physics, and chemistry, and there are also many majors in literature."
Lin Fan quickly asked: "How many literature majors are there?"
Leader Cheng glanced at Lin Fan and said, "There are probably more than three hundred people."
Lin Fan smiled and said: "Boss Cheng, let's do this. You can assign those who study machines and techniques to me, and you can think of a way for the rest."
Those who study literature are prime candidates for becoming officials, and are not suitable for entering factories at all.
Their thoughts are too jumping and they are too easy to come up with some novel political ideas.
Letting them come is simply causing trouble for yourself.
Since Leader Cheng is unwilling to give up so many people, he will bring over all the manufacturing technologies and provide them with a batch of top foreign technology research.
In this way, their talents were not wasted, and Leader Cheng's requirements were met, the best of both worlds.
When Leader Cheng heard Lin Fan finally spit out his words, his face showed happiness. It was actually better to be a liberal arts major than a technical major.
After all, any factory can cram in a few liberal arts students and let them do administrative work.
If that doesn't work, the government will also arrange some arrangements. Three hundred people are not many. After all, Sijiu City is so big and there is enough food.
Once this group of technical staff are deployed, a big problem will be solved.
Leader Cheng smiled and said: "I know you won't let me down, Xiaofan. So just give me the money for the more than 800 college students. I will allow you to expand to 3,000 people! You can
Don’t worry and do it boldly!”
Lin Fan smiled and said, "Okay, then I agree."
If you are willing to die, I will be willing to bury you. I can also ask this talent to give me good machines and good technology, so why not do it.
If you just want to do research, you may have to purchase a lot of equipment, but it doesn't matter.
Lin Fan is also happy to see something that can contribute to the country's construction.
Purchasing a batch of testing instruments from abroad and asking Cheng to lead them to spend some money to produce a batch of materials would be enough for these people to study.
As for the other quotas of 3,000 people, Lin Fan had to carefully screen them. After all, he didn't want to let in those who were looking for trouble.
Leader Cheng nodded happily and said: "Okay, it's settled. You prepare and submit the application as soon as possible."
Lin Fan nodded, the main problems were solved, and the rest were just trivial matters.
Leader Cheng and Director Yang left with smiles, and Lin Fan also returned to the summit with a smile.
