~Date: ~Month Day~

Even so, Guo's words angered all the experts. A white-haired old man slapped the table, stood up suddenly, and said, "It's too much of a deception! What do you mean? Xiao Bao, you tell me! You must make it clear to me today, are you calling us here to amuse us old fellows? ”

The force of his slap and the speed at which he stood up made Guo Zhuocheng very sure whether he would suffer from a cerebral hemorrhage and collapse, especially because his face was blue and his muscles were bruised, and he was even more concerned.

Bao Zhihong looked at Guo Zhuocheng and the old man embarrassedly, and didn't know how to talk for a while.

The other old people were also indignant, and they all thought that this was playing tricks on them: the experts of the dignified military factory were summoned by the deputy director of the Provincial Commission of Science, Technology and Industry and the secretary of the party committee of the factory to develop a walk-behind tractor that had been stored on the market, a thing with almost no technical content, which was really insulting to them, and it was really infuriating.

An expert also said with a dark face: "Our 26th factory is a military factory, but a factory that produces tanks, personnel carriers, and artillery, when did it degenerate into the production of such hand-hammered things?" Secretary Bao, didn't you explain the situation of our factory to the secretary of the town party committee? Professor? If he is a professor, then what are we? Then we are the chief experts of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and c is ......"

Looking at the excited experts, Guo Zhuocheng was amused and sad in his heart. Of course, it is not that these experts are ridiculous, but they feel that the situation of the military factories is ridiculous and that they are sad for the future of most of them.

According to the history of the previous life, within three years, many military factories would have no orders at all, and the big factories that used to be high in the sky either fell apart or produced those products that could be produced even by family workshops without a little technical content, such as anti-theft windows, steel wire shoe racks, simple liquefied gas stoves, and clothes drying racks, in order to make a living.

At that time, even liquefied gas irrigation and single-cylinder washing machines became high-tech products that many enterprises could not produce, and few companies could produce walk-behind tractors.

It's not really about a sudden increase in the technology of liquefied gas tanks, single-cylinder washing machines, walk-behind tractors, or a sudden decline in the level of technicians in military factories. They can't produce because their superiors don't give them raw materials, and they are accustomed to taking raw materials from their superiors and receiving orders, and they can't compete with township enterprises and private enterprises with flexible systems, and almost all the raw materials are bought by those small enterprises at high prices and looking for back doors. People and small businesses use money and gifts to open the way, and they take away as many raw materials as they can buy, and they don't dislike the small quantity at all.

In this kind of large-scale enterprise with tens of thousands of employees, a little raw material is simply not enough for them to stuff their teeth, and they not only can't afford to buy a large number of raw materials, but also dare not pay high prices because of institutional reasons, let alone bribe the departments or units or leaders in charge of materials. Because the factory leaders all knew that the raw materials were bought by bribery. It is the factories that benefit from it, but they bear the blame, who is so stupid? If you really have the ability to buy raw materials, it is better to sell them to township enterprises and private enterprises, and you will get more benefits for yourself.

Without raw materials, no matter how good the technology of the military factory is, it is just a clever daughter-in-law without rice, and it is impossible to make a good pot of rice, so you have to produce whatever you can do, and at that time, it was impossible to produce walk-behind tractors.

In a certain sense, it was the Iran-Iraq war that saved the military industrial enterprises and China's manufacturing and scientific research foundation. Without the outbreak of the Iran-Iraq war, it is really difficult to say what China's reform would have taken after all.

China should award Iraqi President Saddam Hussein, who launched the Iran-Iraq war, a medal made of one ton of gold, to thank him for his contribution to China, and after the United States arrested him, he should do everything in his power to protect him from going to the gallows in the past for his help to Chinese enterprises. Instead, he was picked up by plane and brought to China for recuperation, so that he could eat and drink spicy food, hehe.

At this time, Guo Shucheng smiled and said: "I know that you look down on this thing, because our 26th factory is a dignified military factory, a place where high-end military products are produced≈ and the tractor is not even a high-end civilian product, how can it be elegant?" Isn't this an insult to our military factories, to us, the specialists?

I can't say what's wrong with you right now, but I think you're a little too angry and making a bit of a fuss. Originally, I wanted to say that even if it is a military factory, there is nothing in the production of walk-behind tractors, as long as there is a market, as long as the people need it. What does it matter if we put down our bodies to make them? Satisfying the people's ever-growing material and cultural needs is a long-term task entrusted by the party to the people of the whole country, and it is in line with the party's policy to do so.

But I won't talk about these big truths now, I just say that today I invite you to help us in Mayi Town, and help our enterprises in Mayi Town to design the final drawings as quickly as possible. Let the enterprises in the town of Mayi make the best walk-behind tractors in the country to help farmers in agricultural production.

I guess when I say that, I don't think people will be angry anymore, right? For example, if you are a senior expert, but the old lady in the neighbor's house has a broken light bulb and needs to replace it, and someone invites you, do you not do it because the work of changing the light bulb is not technical? Or do you ask your grandchildren to fix their radios if they break down, do you disdain to lower your body to repair them because the radio is a low-tech product? What do you say?

If the cooperation is good, and the enterprises in our town make money, we will pay everyone appropriately, if you think that your private remuneration is not good, we can add a few fat pigs to the canteen of your 26 factory, send some eggs, and send some vegetables, which is also good. At least it's good for the children's health. ”

was explained by Guo Zhuocheng like this, and said like this, these experts really calmed down, and felt that they were a little too angry just now: people don't want the 26 factory to transform to produce low-tech walk-behind tractors, people are not technical enough, they come to ask us for help, anyway, we have nothing to do, what is it to help? Maybe it can really bring some benefits to the factory, and add a little food to everyone's basket, and our days after retirement have not been in vain?

Everyone fell silent.

Only one expert was obviously looking for the bottom of the stairs and asked Bao Zhihong: "Secretary Bao, are you saying that our 26th factory is not fully engaged in the production of walk-behind tractors?" ”

Bao Zhihong only eliminated the embarrassment at this time, and immediately helped the other party build a ladder to let these old people off the stage, he said: "Of course not. Think about it, can we call the shots in the transformation of military factories? Do you dare to call the shots? This is all stipulated by the state and required by the higher organization. Unless we have two heads, cut off one and keep one, who would dare to do such a thing? Now Director Xu of the Provincial Commission of Science and Technology is here, he is the leader, I dare to tell a lie? ”

Xu Junlong does not have so many scruples as Bao Zhihong, he has not much contact with these experts at all, so he does not dump their old qualifications at all, seeing that Bao Zhihong's words involve himself, he immediately said: "26 factory will transform into the production of walk-behind tractors, I can't be sure." If I want to express my position, it is that if there is an efficiency in the production of walk-behind tractors, then the production of walk-behind tractors, if there is no benefit, no one buys them, then they are not produced. There is nothing wrong with the production of walk-behind tractors in military factories.

I ask you, who stipulates that a factory can only produce one product? Especially when there are no orders for this product. Could it be that our whole factory, including tens of thousands of employees and their families, are staring at it with red eyes, and their eyes are green with empty rice pots? Even if our adults can persevere, can our children persevere? And what right do we have to starve our children? Is it just for the sake of our honorable face?

At present, the whole country is carrying out all-round economic construction, our army is being reduced, our ranks are being streamlined, and our weapons and equipment are being reduced. Why? It is because the state wants to use limited funds and limited raw materials for more important people's livelihood.

It is foreseeable that in the near future, the orders of our military industrial enterprises across the country will be drastically reduced, and how can it be possible that so many military factories will not be transformed and will not focus on civilian production? How can the state afford it? I think you already know that many military factories are now brewing transformation, and some have already started, and many enterprises will not get a penny of military orders next year.

Since the big form shì is like this, then what do we live on? The only way out is to enter the civilian market, what kind of products the people need, what products can make profits, we will strive to produce. Before I came here, the order for military products from the higher organization to our 26 factories was only 830,000! This isn't to scare you, it's true.

Just now, Secretary Bao and Director Sheng heard this number, and their faces turned green. What can 830,000 do? It is equivalent to the average output value of each employee is only 69 yuan, not even 70 yuan. As for civilian orders, there are not many orders from the superiors, and they will not exceed the level of 300 yuan for character.

Even if these orders have 100% profits, they can't maintain a few months' wages from our 26 factories. Today I came down to do the work of your factory leaders, to put it bluntly, to do the work of appeasement, but also to discuss with them how to go out, if you go out to make money.

With such a small order, what if we don't look for outside markets and products?

Now that Secretary Guo of Mayi Town has approved a good product and took the initiative to find us to unite, we should thank him and the comrades of Mayi Town, what reason and qualification do we have to throw him and the information he brought aside? What's the reason to be on top?
