Chapter 518: The Development of the Wood Carving Factory

After drinking the first glass of wine, Guo Shaoqiang filled Chen Qingdong with another glass of wine, and then began to order, starting with Zhao Mingbo, and asked these middle-level and above leaders of the wood carving factory to come over one by one to toast Chen Qingdong.

Guo Shaoqiang did this, on the surface, it seemed to show respect for Chen Qingdong, but Chen Qingdong could clearly see that Guo Shaoqiang was still demonstrating! He did this just to let himself see for himself who had the final say in the Shuangshan Wood Carving Factory and who could command these people!

Because before drinking, Chen Qingdong had already pulled up Guo Shaoqiang, saying that he should be on par with Guo Shaoqiang when he drank alcohol, so when everyone came to toast, Chen Qingdong only took a shallow sip, and after a circle of people finished toasting, Chen Qingdong drank a large glass of wine in total.

Next, everyone continued to drink, Guo Shaoqiang launched a drinking war against Chen Qingdong, but Chen Qingdong pulled Guo Shaoqiang to drink every time, and as a result, after drinking this meal, Chen Qingdong drank Guo Shaoqiang Everyone drank nearly a pound and a half, Guo Shaoqiang was drunk directly at the wine table, but Chen Qingdong could still stay sober, and without the help of others, he walked to a room specially reserved for him in the dormitory building of the woodcarving factory.

After this drinking, Chen Qingdong's good amount of wine immediately shocked everyone in the wood carving factory!

Guo Shaoqiang didn't finally wake up until more than ten o'clock in the morning the next day, even though he drank a good wine like Wuliangye, Guo Shaoqiang still felt a splitting headache!

It is said that after Guo Shaoqiang woke up, he called Wu Yongshun, and after learning that Chen Qingdong had gone to work in the office, the first thing he said was: "Chen Qingdong on dog days is really good at drinking!"

Wu Yongshun said with concern: "Director Guo, you drank a lot yesterday, you will rest at home today, don't come to work." ”

Guo Shaoqiang didn't take this sentence and asked, "What did Chen Qingdong do at work today?"

"He asked me for some information about the development of our factory over the years, as well as asset information, and some financial statements, so I can read these things there. ”

"Oh. You gave him all the information?"

"Yes. But I've read it, and there's nothing sensitive about it. ”

"Well, hehe, this kid can still read the financial statements?" Guo Shaoqiang sneered and asked again, "Is there anything else he does?"

"Didn't do anything else. Wu Yongshun said, "Just look at the information in the office, Director Guo, don't worry, I will send someone to keep an eye on him." ”

"You have to be careful. Guo Shaoqiang said, "I think Chen Qingdong is also a smart person and a very familiar person, if he finds out about the thing you sent someone to stare at him, I am afraid it will be counterproductive." Anyway, the whole factory is our people, even if we don't send someone to keep an eye on him, we can know what he did. ”

After saying this, Guo Shaoqiang told again: "Yongshun, I think Chen Qingdong is still okay, if he really goes to the Tao, we can even fight for him." ”

Wu Yongshun pondered for a while and said, "Director Guo, I have more contact with the Shuangshan Town Government, and I still know Chen Qingdong quite well. He has done a lot of great things in Shuangshan in the past two years, and he has a very good relationship with several major leaders. It turned out that when Wei Hailong and Gao Kun were the top leaders of the party and government in Shuangshan, the two of them were incompatible, and Chen Qingdong actually had a good relationship with both of them, which shows that Chen Qingdong's way of doing this kid is very deep! Moreover, he came to our factory as the factory director, or Secretary Xu personally made the decision, I am afraid that the person who came is not good, we have to do it!"

Guo Shaoqiang rubbed his temples and said impatiently: "I know, I know." Okay, let's do it for now, damn, I have a headache! I'll go to work in the afternoon, let's meet and talk about it. ”

……

Chen Qingdong took a rough look at the content of the development process and basic situation of Shuangshan Wood Carving Factory in the office, and had a better understanding of the situation of the wood carving factory.

It turned out that this wood carving factory was born in 1983, a fiery era, and it was at the beginning of this year that the rural household contract responsibility system was fully promoted throughout the country, marking a new stage of China's reform and opening up.

Under the leadership of the first director Guo Jianbiao, Shuangshan wood carving factory after ten years of development, to about 1993, has become the county's star enterprise, enterprise efficiency and tax amount steadily ranked in the top three in the county, its products, especially just explored a new variety - Ming and Qing style furniture in the market has shown a strong momentum, in the furniture market of Longwan City has achieved very good results, and even once exported to many cities in the forefront of reform and opening up in the south!

However, just when Guo Jianbiao was ready to roll up his sleeves and do a great job, the spring breeze of state-owned enterprise restructuring of "national retreat and democratic advancement, system reform" blew violently across the country, and Cheng Xuehong, the county magistrate of Liulin County at that time, also wanted to keep up with the trend and restructure the Shuangshan wood carving factory.

However, Guo Jianbiao was unwilling to do this, and Cheng Xuehong, the new county magistrate who had just taken office, did not get through the work he did several times, and even slapped the table on the spot when Guo Jianbiao attended the Standing Committee of the county party committee to discuss this matter, which made Cheng Xuehong angry and unable to get off the stage!

Later, under the clapping of the then secretary of the county party committee, the Shuangshan wood carving factory was not restructured in the end, but what is strange is that it did not take long for Guo Jianbiao, who had won the victory in the restructuring of the wood carving factory, to submit a resignation report to the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Bureau, and it was quickly approved.

Soon after, under the strong push of Cheng Xuehong, Tang Xudong, a young deputy director of the Planning Commission in his thirties, was transferred to the Shuangshan Wood Carving Factory as the factory director.

Tang Xudong's entry into the house also opened the prelude to the decline of Shuangshan Wood Carving Factory!

After Tang Xudong served as Shuangshan Wood Carving Factory, the work style was tough, and the speed of promoting the work was vigorous and resolute, and it was less than a month after taking office, he organized a high-standard team including Cheng Xuehong, the county magistrate, the deputy county magistrate in charge of the enterprise, the director of the Finance Bureau, the director of the Economic and Trade Commission and other senior officials, and went to the field to inspect several famous wood carving factories, looking for a new opportunity for the transformation and development of Shuangshan Wood Carving Factory!

In fact, Tang Xudong's life is not good, not long after they returned from this investigation, a serious fire broke out in the wood carving factory, causing a batch of millions worth of products in the wood carving factory to burn into ashes, and this batch of goods is ready to be sent to a Hong Kong-funded company in a coastal city in the near future!

After this batch of goods was burned, it was impossible to ship the goods on schedule, Tang Xudong immediately sent someone to negotiate with the other party, hoping that the other party could give grace for a period of time, but the other party was not willing to talk about it at all, and directly let the wood carving factory lose money according to the contract!

Tang Xudong had no choice, and in that sensitive era, he didn't dare to offend a company with a Hong Kong-funded background at all, so he could only pay the other party nearly two million in accordance with the contract!

Originally, there was such a big event, Tang Xudong, as the factory director, must be responsible for the leadership, and it is said that the position of the factory director should not be able to be kept!

However, with the strong support of the county magistrate Cheng Xuehong, Tang Xudong was able to continue to stay in office, and in order to quickly eliminate the negative impact of this incident, Tang Xudong carried out a drastic reform of the wood carving factory when the conditions were not too sufficient!

It is said that in the market environment at that time, it was a good thing that Tang Xudong was able to reform the wood carving factory in a big way, but Tang Xudong was a person who could only talk on paper and did not have much practical ability! Their high-standard inspection team was not so much going out to inspect as to travel!

He did not conduct a detailed research on the market, and took it for granted that the current core product of the wood carving factory, Ming and Qing style furniture, is all hand-carved by front-line workers, the production capacity is too slow, there are too many workers, the price is also high, and the competitiveness in the market is definitely not good!

Therefore, Tang Xudong cut off the Ming and Qing Dynasty furniture style product line that the former factory director Guo Jianbiao had spent several years of hard work to finally create, but spent a lot of money to buy three-dimensional engraving machines and other products to create a "modern" production line, and seize the market with the strategy of "low price and high yield"!

However, the market does not believe in tears, and Tang Xudong's taken for granted approach has been hit in the face in the fiercely competitive market!

Due to the rapid development of several southern provinces at that time, especially in Zhejiang, Guangzhou and other coastal provinces, the furniture industry was very rapid, and the things made were of high quality and low price, and quickly occupied the market, and the products produced by Shuangshan Wood Carving Factory in the "modern production line" lost their original characteristics, and there was no advantage in price and quality, so once the product was pushed into the market, it suffered a tragic Waterloo!

In 1996 alone, Shuangshan Wood Carving Factory, which was originally a large profit and taxpayer in the county, had a net loss of more than 6 million!

In this context, Tang Xudong did not summarize the real reason for the failure of the wood carving factory, but believed that there were too many employees in the Shuangshan wood carving factory, which led to the increase in the cost of products, so it lost its market competitiveness!

Tang Xudong showed the strength of "insisting on Qingshan not relaxing", and under huge pressure, he carried out large-scale layoffs on Shuangshan Wood Carving Factory, and nearly forty percent of employees were laid off at one time!

Then, Tang Xudong borrowed more than 20 million yuan from the bank, upgraded the modern production line of the wood carving factory, and looked for relationships everywhere through Cheng Xuehong, and finally contacted several customers in Thailand and Malaysia through a college classmate working in the Department of Foreign Trade of the Ministry of Commerce, and also signed several large orders, with a total value of nearly one million US dollars!

Tang Xudong was very excited about these big orders, and he was ready to let go of his hands and feet, do a good job, sell his products overseas, and reopen the market!

However, perhaps Tang Xudong was destined to make a bad star, and his fate was too bad, just when the wood carving factory made those large orders of products according to the requirements of those overseas customers, and prepared to be loaded and transported from the port of Longwan, the Asian economic crisis that shocked the world broke out!

Since January 1997, international speculators led by George Soros began to short the Thai baht and buy US dollars, and this financial storm later swept through Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore and other countries, which led to the economic paralysis of Thailand, Malaysia and other countries, and a large number of enterprises went bankrupt!

And several companies that signed orders with Shuangshan Wood Carving Factory also went bankrupt and collapsed in this financial storm!

What made Tang Xudong even more depressed was that when he signed these contracts, he didn't let the other party pay any deposit at all, he directly asked the wood carving factory to start producing products, and according to the contract, when the wood carving factory delivered the products, the other party paid all the funds at one time!

However, now that the other party has gone bankrupt and gone bankrupt, he naturally has no ability to buy the products of Shuangshan Wood Carving Factory, and the few contracts that have been signed are naturally invalid, and the other party has gone bankrupt and the assets have been taken away by the bank.

Helplessly, Tang Xudong and Shuangshan Wood Carving Factory could only swallow this evil result, and this batch of goods was pressed on Shuangshan Wood Carving Factory.

Because the products of these orders are in accordance with the requirements of several enterprises in Southeast Asia, the products are all Southeast Asian-style furniture, the shape is more weird, and the ordinary Chinese people are still relatively conservative in their thinking, and they do not accept this style of furniture at all, so Tang Xudong wants to dispose of these furniture at a low price and can't find a way!

In the end, a small portion of the furniture was sold at a very low price, and most of the rest was left in the woodcarving factory's warehouse to become moldy.

This single business has caused Shuangshan Wood Carving Factory to lose millions!

Since then, Tang Xudong may have been hit hard, and he no longer has the strength to carry out reforms, and he doesn't care much about the situation of the wood carving factory, and the Shuangshan wood carving factory has also embarked on the road of decline.
