Wang Weidong and Li Yueshi walked out of the Shanghai office of the Japan-China Economic Association.

"Boss, think about it, you can't actually make much money from producing such low-end Igbt, and if you can make a lot of money, the Japanese will not give up production." Li Yueshi said.

"Now we are still in the primary accumulation stage, and we don't have so much financial resources and manpower to do high-end things. Saying that the production of this IGBT does not make much money, those enterprises that produce socks and lighters are not the same in production? Their margins are lower! Now we can only accumulate slowly, and when the capital of Sunningdale is strong enough in the future, we will make efforts in high-end Igbt! Wang Weidong said.

"We at Sunningdale still have the energy to raise more money. Red Star Beer's share price is much higher than when we first started the acquisition, and now it is about 27 yuan per share. With the shares of Red Star Beer as collateral, I think it is absolutely no problem to borrow five or six hundred million from the bank, and if all of them are pledged, you can even borrow one billion! Li Yueshi said.

"Absolutely not! We can't do that! Miss Lee, you are from Hong Kong Island, and you are accustomed to thinking purely from an economic point of view, without any political sense. Didn't you notice? Half a year after the stock market rose, the state has now begun to pour cold water on the stock market. If we pledge all the shares of Red Star Beer at this time, when the stock market falls sharply in the future, the shares pledged in the hands of the bank will be worthless. At that time, it will be impossible for us to borrow money from the bank, and the bank will only collect the debt from us! It's like a well-run corporate bank can't afford all the depositors to withdraw all the deposits in the bank, and then Red Star Beer will be auctioned by the bank on the market without saying a word, for example, we have invested one billion in the construction of breweries around the country, but at the time of the auction, there may not even be 300 million! As a result, we lost 700 million, and even lost all our blood! Wang Weidong said.

"No, Mr. Wang, even if you really say that day, don't forget that we still have a listed company on Hong Kong Island. We can also raise money from Sunningdale Electronics Co., Ltd. Li Yueshi said confidently.

"What if the Hong Kong Island stock market also falls sharply by then? Don't take things as simple as that. Be sure to keep your hands on it! Wang Weidong said.

Li Yueshi felt that the possibility of Wang Weidong saying was too low, because in the 90s, the mainland stock market was closed, and the linkage with foreign stock markets was very small, and the possibility of a sharp decline in the mainland stock market and the Hong Kong Island stock market at the same time was very small.

Li Yueshi also wanted to use the economic knowledge she had learned to persuade Wang Weidong, but was interrupted by Wang Weidong.

"Miss Li, you stay in Shanghai, I have to go to the capital immediately, there are important things to deal with, I have to leave by plane tonight, let's break up here." Wang Weidong said.

Wang Weidong did have something to do when he went to the capital.

Vice Minister Lu called him and asked him to go to the capital. The ministry has already coordinated a piece of land for the resettlement of retired workers from the Yuanzheng Machinery Factory, and Wang Weidong needs to go to the capital for consultation.

After all, Wang Weidong had already promised that the cost of resettlement for these old workers and their families would be paid by Sunningdale Electronics.

Wang Weidong arrived in Beijing by plane overnight, and went to the ministry to meet Vice Minister Lu the next morning.

Seeing Wang Weidong walk into the office, Vice Minister Lu said with a smile: "Weidong, the Ministry of Affairs for the resettlement of old workers and their families is very concerned, and they have finally found a good place, not far from the capital, in the summer resort!" ”

Hearing what Vice Minister Lu said, Wang Weidong also said in surprise: "Yes, knowing that the leaders care about them so much, those old workers don't know how moved they are!" ”

Vice Minister Lu said with emotion: "Those old workers have dedicated their lives to the country, and we can't treat them too badly!" It was not easy to find such a good place, in fact, there were several arsenals there, some have been moved, and some are being relocated, so there are many factories and residential buildings left, and they can be completely arranged. ”

"What the leader means is that we can arrange these old workers without paying money?" Wang Weidong asked in disbelief.

Vice Minister Lu pinched his thumb and index finger together and said, "A little bit, you Xiangyang Electronics can take out a little more!" I'll have something to do today and tomorrow, and I'll take you there the day after tomorrow. ”

Two days later, Vice Minister Lu, his secretary and Wang Weidong, got into a car and headed north from Beijing.

The resettlement site mentioned by Vice Minister Lu is a summer resort, which is of course not a real summer resort, but a ravine only a few dozen kilometers away from the summer resort.

From the 60s to the 70s, several arsenals were built in the ravines of this area, which produced military supplies such as galoshes, tents, sleeping bags, etc.

Since the end of the 80s, these factories have been relocated one after another, leaving behind empty factories and residential buildings.

Wang Weidong felt that although it was also a ravine, the conditions here should be much better than those of the Expeditionary Machinery Factory, after all, it was much more comfortable in winter when there was heating.

The sedan jolted on the dilapidated concrete road.

Vice Minister Lu said with a smile: "After the factory moved out, there has been no maintenance, and these cement roads have broken down. When there was a war in the south in the 80s, this factory area was very busy, working overtime day and night! Fighting in the jungle requires very high levels of galoshes! ”

Vice Minister Lu said to the driver: "Drive directly into the residential area, there is no one anyway." ”

Soon, rows of low-rise residential buildings appeared in front of me, and all I could see were black holes and windows.

Vice Minister Lu's face became very gloomy.

The secretary whispered: "I haven't lived in it for a year or two, and it's likely that the nearby villagers have removed all the windows." ”

Vice Minister Lu whispered: "What quality! What qualities! ”

The car stopped, Vice Minister Lu, Wang Weidong and the secretary got out of the car and walked to the nearest residential building.

Wang Weidong has been in the Xiangyang Chemical Plant since he was a child. The Xiangyang Chemical Plant was built in the early 50s with the help of the big brother of the northern power, and the factory buildings, office buildings, and residential buildings all have a distinctly Soviet-style style.

It stands to reason that the residential building in front of us was built around 70 years ago, and it should be better and newer than the building built in the 50s.

But the actual situation is much worse than the residential building in the 50s where Wang Weidong once lived. Even from the outside, the height of the floor is much worse, and the three-story residential building feels only as tall as the two-story residential building of the Xiangyang Chemical Plant.

It is also easy to understand that when the factories were built in the 60s and 70s, it was the most difficult period for the country, and there was not much money to spend on the livelihood of workers.

Walking into the dark doorway of the building, Vice Minister Lu immediately smelled a pungent smell of urine and feces. Dozens of flies rose into the air, but a few still lay on their dung with reluctance.

Although the factory is deserted, it must still be frequented by people. The windows and door panels can be removed and used back, except that the house cannot be moved, and a little scrap copper and rotten iron can also be exchanged for money.

Without the obstruction of the door panel, Vice Minister Lu walked into a room on the first floor with his hands behind his back.

There were still a few splashes of urine on the ground, but it had dried up for a long time, the urine stains had become maps, and the wires buried in the walls had been pulled off, leaving scars on the walls.

Of course, the heating and water pipes installed in the room were also removed, and the room was in shambles.

Vice Minister Lu's face was even more ugly, but he immediately squeezed out a smile and said to Wang Weidong: "Weidong, although the house is a little broken, as long as the windows and doors are secured, and the heating and water pipes are reinstalled, it can be used!" No matter what, it's much stronger than the big ravine of the Expeditionary Machinery Factory, right? You can find a suitable office building here to renovate and renovate, and move a hospital of the Expeditionary Machinery Factory to serve not only a few hundred old workers, but also farmers in the nearby countryside. ”

"This floor is so low, I can touch the ceiling with a slight jump, it's too depressing to live here, and it's too broken! We are willing to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to rebuild two large and bright residential buildings, and place all the old workers who have contributed their lives to the country! Wang Weidong said.

Hearing Wang Weidong say this, Vice Minister Lu looked at Wang Weidong for a long time, and then stretched out his hand and patted Wang Weidong on the shoulder twice.

After walking out of the residential building, Vice Minister Lu looked at the factory area where thousands of workers once worked and lived with his hands behind his back and felt very emotional.

Wang Weidong said: "Vice Minister Lu, we at Xiangyang Electronics have built houses for these old workers, and you must also do follow-up work to solve the land problem for building houses." In this way, it will be convenient for these old workers to go through real estate certificates and other procedures in the future, which can be regarded as a wealth in the hands of these old workers. Of course, I wanted to make the land available for us to build as large as possible, not just a place to live, but a garden room or something. The construction of the hospital must also have procedures on the land, and it must not be confused, otherwise it will not be clear in the future. ”

Vice Minister Lu nodded and said, "Weidong, I know what you're worried about, aren't you just worried that someone will stand up and say that this land is not yours after you finish building the building." Don't worry, the land in this ravine is worthless at all, and no one will rob you from it! I'll go back and discuss with the ministry, and strive to make the land area bigger for you, so that you can toss as much as possible! ”

In the end, Vice Minister Lu patted Wang Weidong's back twice with his hand and said with emotion: "Weidong, do you remember? The two of us met when we were eighty-five years old, and I was the director of the Xiangyang Chemical Plant at that time, because of the acquisition of your radio factory by the military to civilian use, in fact, I had a lot of thoughts about you at that time! To tell you the truth, at the time I thought you were a mercenary person! But in the past two years, I have changed my opinion, you handed over the tube technology to the ministry, and now you are rehousing those old workers for free. Very good! It seems that you are an atmospheric person, and it would be great if private entrepreneurs could be like you! ”
