Chapter 40: Ningjiang Wireless Factory

From Jichun to Ningjiang, along the way, Chen Can frowned and looked out the window.

In the early spring of March, the snow had not yet completely melted, but where Chen Can passed, he was shocked.

For more than 300 kilometers, he didn't touch a small car, and the occasional passing vehicle was either a big liberation or a tractor, and the black smoke drifted all the way, drifting far away, making people smack!

Chen Can's deepest memory is that he passed by a small village, where a group of children wore torn cotton jackets on their upper bodies, a pair of single-autumn pants on their lower bodies, a pair of rotten cloth shoes on their feet, their hands were full of chilblains, their faces were flushed, and a layer of frozen scars were scabbed!

Both men and women, almost all of them are dressed like that, and it is obvious that the clothes on their bodies are made up by the family.

That scene deeply shocked Chen Can.

It has been nearly a year since he traveled to this era, and he has been wandering around Jichun City, as the provincial capital, there are certainly many poor people in it, such as the ordinary people in the Guangzi area.

However, compared with the rural areas of this era, the living conditions of urban people are countless times better.

Walking out of his comfort zone, Chen Can finally understood that this world was not what he imagined.

Yes, in this era, it is too poor, everything is waiting to be rebuilt, everything is starting from scratch!

Chen Can can't imagine that forty years later, high-speed rail, airplanes, high-speed, connectivity, mobile phones, the Internet, and TV have been completely integrated into the lives of ordinary people.

What a remarkable and hard-won achievement!

As a Chinese, Chen Can felt a sense of responsibility at this moment.

Perhaps, it is time for me to do something for this country and the people of this land!

Along the way, the snow has not completely melted, and the journey of more than 300 kilometers has been carried out for a whole day, and it is only at half past eight in the evening that I arrive at a guest house in Ningjiang.

Huang Jiang arranged Chen Can first, it was too late today, and all work matters would be discussed tomorrow.

After Chen Can sent Huang Jiang away, he stood in front of the window on the second floor and looked at the night outside the window.

Although Ningjiang is a county-level city, it is obvious that it is even more depressed than Chen Can imagined.

It was only half past eight in the evening, and it was already dark outside, but the guest house was still in the center of the city.

The lack of activity in the nightlife also illustrates the local economic situation from the side.

Even in the city center, there are no street lights, as you can imagine.

Fortunately, the conditions in this guest house are not bad, the whole room is warm, Chen Can got into the quilt, dreamless all night, and slept until dawn.

At eight o'clock the next morning, a waiter came knocking on the door.

Chen Can got dressed and opened the door, and saw a young man standing outside, Chen Can then remembered that this was Huang Jiang's secretary.

Chen Can smiled, and after washing up, he followed the other party downstairs to have some breakfast, and then got into the car to pick up and go to the Ningjiang Municipal Government.

The allocation of county-level cities is slightly higher than that of ordinary counties, which may also be the confidence of the Yellow River.

It was too dark last night, and Chen Can didn't even have time to take a good look at the city.

Chen Can sat in front of the window and looked at the city, this may be the city center, which is cleaner and more prosperous than Chen Can imagined.

The office worker on the bicycle is in a hurry, and the grocery shopping lady carrying the basket is wrapped in a large scarf, showing only a pair of eyes, and her hands are tightly tucked in her pockets.

Chen Can felt very cordial, this place is like a small Jichun, maybe it belongs to the Northeast, and the people here are almost the same in terms of dress and living customs.

In the distance, several large chimneys were spitting white smoke, and Chen Can knew that it should be a cement factory.

It seems that the heavy industry in Ningjiang City is basically a highly polluting heavy industry.

Chen Can frowned and was thinking about his thoughts, and the map of Ningjiang came to his mind.

He was thinking about what the advantages of this city were, and suddenly, a whistle sounded in the distance, which made Chen Can feel stunned.

"Yes, the train station!"

Chen Can's eyes are also bright!

Ningjiang itself does not have any mineral resources, but it is close to three resource cities, and all minerals will pass through Ningjiang.

The railway line of Ningjiang extends in all directions, and the farthest can lead to Yanjing, which is thousands of miles away, and almost all of the big cities in the northern region can be directly reached.

As for the railway line to the south, there is no direct connection, but there are also transit stations on the way.

The reason why Chen Can thought of the railway station was that he naturally had to think about the future development of Ningjiang.

There is a saying that if you want to get rich, you must first build roads!

Railways are also roads, and this is still a ready-made transportation route.

As long as Ningjiang can develop, these can be fully utilized!

Chen Can remembers that in another decade or so, with the further deterioration of the economy in Northeast China, many of the railways along the Ningjiang River have been rerouted, and even many lines have been suspended and abandoned.

Along the way, Chen Can was thinking about this until he got out of the car and came to his senses.

The Ningjiang Municipal Government is just a three-story ordinary red brick building, typical of the sixties and seventies.

Chen Can suddenly remembered that in later life, he stood in front of a county government building, the twenty or thirty-story white high-rise building, and the shining national emblem, which always felt a little unreal.

Everything will be fine, Chen Can took a deep breath and strode in!

Chen Can's arrival caused many people's side eyes, and everyone may have already known Chen Can's character, and they all smiled and nodded to say hello.

This kind of treatment is very different from the previous treatment in the second branch.

Chen Can also smiled and nodded in response, and was led into a conference room by Secretary Wu, which was already full of people at this time.

Chen Can looked at it, and the one above was Huang Jiang.

Huang Jiang smiled and beckoned to Chen Can and asked him to sit in the seat below.

Chen Can is not a novice, so he naturally knows that this position is definitely not something he can sit in, but Secretary Huang invited, he thought about it, and said hello to the others, and then sat down.

With the arrival of the personnel, the meeting officially began.

Huang Jiang first introduced Chen Can to everyone, and all kinds of boasting made Chen Can blush a little.

In Huangjiang's boasting, more than half of the credit for the reason why the second wireless factory in Jichun City can be so popular is Chen Can.

Chen Can could only respond with a wry smile.

Next, Huang Jiang began to get down to business.

It's about building a new wireless factory.

The name of this wireless factory is called Ningjiang Wireless Factory!

At present, the address has been selected, the employees have been recruited, the equipment has entered the factory, the funds and everything are ready, only the next Chen Can project.

Huang Jiang's meaning is obvious, all the project arrangements of this wireless factory are all made by Chen Can.

Chen Can is also very honored, this is what it feels like to be truly valued.

Perhaps, some of the following people don't believe in Chen Can's ability, but at this time, no one will come out to oppose it.

There is no such death-slapping plot in the novel, all these obstacles have been cleared by the Yellow River.

It can be said that as the master of the city, Huang Jiang has gambled on his future and future.

No one should be allowed to stand in the way of the establishment of a wireless plant.

Maybe before Chen Can's arrival, there were people with different opinions, but they must have been kicked out of Ningjiang by Huang Jiang!

That's the reality!

At the end of the meeting, Huang Jiang raised the next project of Ningjiang Wireless Plant, and Huang Jiang said with confidence.

"The equipment production equipment of the 7127 factory has been all moved to the Ningjiang Wireless Factory, where there is a complete production line of electronic components and equipment, and all the raw materials, including radio spare parts, have been issued by the city to fully cooperate with the production tasks of the Ningjiang Wireless Factory!"

The 7127 factory is a military wireless factory under Liaoshen before, and with the needs of the times, it has been eliminated, and the Jiangning wireless factory is being built, and all the machinery and equipment are ready-made.

With the reform and opening up, many military-to-civilian projects are the trend of the times.

Chen Can nodded, but in the end, he still put forward an opinion of his own!

That is, he is going to prepare a new project, which will not only be supported by the city, but may even be supported by the province!

This project is a watch project!

The reason why Chen Can wants to engage in electronic watches is very simple, this thing, in the early eighties, relied on massive smuggling, and almost beat the domestic watch industry to the ground.

There is another important reason why Chen Can is ready to engage in electronic watches, that is, he is ready to start reverse research chips with the help of electronic watch projects.

In the mid-seventies, an electronic watch cost hundreds of dollars abroad, and in the seventeenth year, with the development of the first electronic watch IC chip, this noble thing quickly began to fall off the altar.

By the early 80s, electronic watches could cost as little as two dollars a piece.

Later, in the 90s, many electronic watches for five yuan a piece at the entrance of many schools in China became popular throughout China.

To make money, you have to make money on the outlet, Chen Can thought very simply.

Rather than having the smugglers spend a lot of silver dollars and gold to transport garbage from abroad, it is better to produce it themselves.

The electronic watch is not impossible to produce in China.

Ahem!

It seems that it can't be produced now, but Chen Can can!

Of course, he needs equipment and some necessary support!

Don't think about foreign technology so awesomely, at least in the chip area, the gap between China in this era and Europe and the United States is far lower than that of later generations.

It was only in the 60s that the port city began to study integrated circuits, on the Bay Island side, in the 70s, and in China, we started to study integrated circuits in the 50s.

In five or seven years, the state put forward the slogan of marching towards science, and dozens of semiconductor research institutes were established in China.

The research results of these institutes, in this era, are not much behind Europe and the United States.

Because everyone has just started to play with integrated circuits, everyone has just made the transition from transistor research to integrated circuit research.

What really made the domestic chip industry lag behind was probably in the eighties and nineties, and in order to develop the economy, China began to tilt towards people's livelihood in an all-round way.

Some people suggest that it is better to build your own than to buy it, which is not only cheaper, but also saves valuable resources.

Outcome...... One step behind, one step behind!

In fact, in the final analysis, everyone still doesn't realize the huge economic value in this.

For domestic semiconductor research institutes, the results of their research mainly serve the military and national defense causes, and all funding depends on the state.

In the capital society, everything is for the sake of profit, and after the research is successful, the first time to get the product out of the market, first make a lot of money, and then use the funds to invest in research.

At this time, if other countries want to study it, you can come out and say it immediately.

"Fellow, don't study it, my previous research results, half sold and half given to you, can you still save a lot of money, wouldn't it be nice to buy a few more white buns?"

This kind of good thing made some experts ecstatic, and they hurriedly wrote to the top level, saying that this is a great thing for the benefit of the country and the people!

So, it was gradually fooled and lame!

In the era of earth-shaking science, thirty years is enough to establish its own scientific and technological barriers, and it is far ahead of other countries by several generations.

Even if in the future, you wake up and want to study on your own again, the level of hardship can only be imagined.

Once you really study something, the other party can sanction you at any time and completely block you!

This is the true face of capital.

Chen Canzhi didn't think it was so ambitious, but within his ability, he just wanted to do what he wanted to do!

The electronic watch project seems simple, but it must be supported by the province to let some research institutes open up the research results to Chen Can.

Although Chen Can has the technology produced by the system, this must also be based on the physical object, and the equipment and electronic components of integrated circuits need to be supported from above.

Although Huang Jiang was a little unfamiliar with the words electronic watch, he still had no reason to support Chen Can's decision.

He will report all this immediately.

In addition to the electronic watch project, Chen Can also proposed to cause a tape production line, but this capital demand is a bit too much, and it must be imported on a small day.

With regard to this proposal, it is currently available as a backup option.

In addition to the above proposals, Chen Can also made a suggestion to Huang Jiang personally.

Chen Can hoped that Huang Jiang would report to the top in a timely manner.

Chen Can's proposal is very simple, that is, once the Ningjiang Wireless Factory generates profits in the future, the above must guarantee 20% of the profits as the research and development funds of the Ningjiang Wireless Factory!

Only with sufficient research funds, the future Ningjiang Wireless No. 2 Plant can have better development and ensure that technical research will not lag behind.

After thinking about this proposal, Huang Jiang felt that it was also very reasonable, without leading technology, Ningjiang Wireless Factory, relying on personal strength, would be eliminated by the market sooner or later.

Huang Jiang immediately agreed to write this proposal into the report!

Of course, Ningjiang Wireless Factory has just been established, and the most important thing at present is to make the factory profitable.

Only if you make a profit, next, the people above will believe you!

Chen Can naturally understands!

If you want to make a profit, you must have an ace product!

Portable radio, he is still not ready to give up, it is only seven or eight years now, the era of personal radio, is coming, this outlet, he does not plan to give up.

The site of Ningjiang Wireless No. 2 Factory was selected in the former Ningjiang Grain Bureau, because the Grain Bureau moved away, leaving several large warehouses here.

This area is large enough to be transformed into a large factory with a simple transformation, and many construction workers are already busy at this time!

Chen Can served as the deputy director of Ningjiang Wireless Factory, the head of the sales section, and the chief of the technical section.

The level of the second wireless factory is a division-level unit, a provincial management unit, obviously, this time the province also pays attention to the second wireless plant in Ningjiang.

Chen Can didn't expect that he would be here, and he was promoted, although he wore many hats, but he was not responsible for factory management.

The factory director and secretary are people arranged by the city, but the other party is very polite to Chen Can, obviously this is a greeting from above.

Chen Can not only raised his level this time, but also took a heavy responsibility.

In the afternoon of the same day, Chen Can went to the technical department that had been established.

He immediately began to prepare for new research, this time, to redesign a portable radio.

This radio, it will be smaller, more technological, and most importantly, its appearance, will be more fashionable and more in line with the preferences of young people!

The original "Jinpeng brand" portable radio of Jichun Wireless No. 2 Factory, in Chen Can's view, is more like a temporary patchwork.

In my hand, a big black brick, full of plastic, I haven't even done a good job of grinding the edges!

At that time, Chen Can had to concentrate all his resources on the radio, and in order to save costs, he naturally gave up the appearance design.

Now Ningjiang Wireless Factory, resources than the second wireless factory at that time, can be much richer, what do you want to support, there are, the province's Yuan Accessories Factory, are at his disposal.

With such support, if Chen Can can't make a satisfactory product, it will really insult the technology produced by the system.

Of course, this kind of radio is still only a transitional product, but Chen Can is still ready to make the radio project into a series of projects.

The simple reason is that there will still be a market for radios for more than a decade to come.

And most importantly, it can solve the employment of a large part of the population!

Since he has become a leader, he must have a view of the overall situation, and there is a very important task to establish this Ningjiang wireless factory, which is to solve employment.

The tide of educated youths returning to the city has still begun, and in the next ten years, the wave of layoffs will begin again.

So Chen Can is under a lot of pressure!

In addition to the electronic watch project, Chen Can also plans to make a tape recorder next.

In the 80s, the loudspeaker recorder was really popular in the whole of China.

Flared pants, toad glasses, and a loudspeaker recorder, you are the most beautiful boy on this street!

After the era of cassette recorders, there was the era of Walkmans, followed by MP3 players......

There were too many electrical products in the eighties and nineties, VCD, DVD, pager, learning machine, and a series of electrical appliances, each of which was once popular in this land.

The future development potential of Ningjiang Wireless No. 2 Factory is too great, everything starts with a small radio!

For a whole week, Chen Can was soaked in the technical department, eating and drinking in the factory.

Finally, the results of a week's worth of research have finally come out!

Three radios, which are still crudely made, are placed on Huang Jiang's desk.

Chen Can named the three radios P01, P02, and P03 respectively, and the three radios were distinguished by large, medium and small.

These three radios are similar in appearance, the only difference is that they are large, medium and small.

Although portable radios are cheap and meet the needs of many young people, there are still many people who need a bigger and louder radio.

This P03 model is a large radio, and Chen Can also deliberately made two big speakers, one left and one right, which looks like the atmosphere is high-grade.

The smallest P01 model, only the size of an adult's palm, can be described as a real small and exquisite, its weight is only five hundred and seven grams, which is already the limit of domestic technology!

Chen Can believes that even if other factories want to imitate, it will be difficult to break through Chen Can's technology in less than a year and a half.

The P02 model in the middle, weighing 1.8 kg, is square, even if you hold it in one hand, you will not be tired.

The largest P03 model, weighing 6.7 kilograms, has a handle on the top, and can be carried to blow up the street.

And Chen Can has made a new design, this design, which is rare in China at present, that is, the hidden antenna.

Ordinary radios must have a long antenna, Chen Can originally started as a super antenna, he naturally has a way to strengthen the signal, and at the same time hide the antenna.

The advantage of this is that the radio no longer has to show its bare antenna, which is simple and convenient.

At the same time, Chen Can also prepared two colors, black and silver.

Chen Can is also ready to make a simple modification to this appearance, except for a small amount of aluminum alloy shell material, he is ready to use metal paint to make the plastic coating more metallic, so that there will never be that cheap feeling again!

The most important point is that its selling price is its biggest selling point!
