The Unacknowledged Plan

Chapter 533 The Unacknowledged Plan

Despite the scorching summer sun, Liaoyang, the provincial capital, remains bright and beautiful.

The red Xiali car sped along the lane.

Lin Xiaohe flipped through the plan in her hand and sighed inwardly. You can't judge a book by its cover. Who would have thought that the person behind County Chief Tian was actually Wang Wei, the deputy high-ranking official in charge of industry?
Looking out the car window.

Advertisements for PanShi TVs are everywhere.

Early-morning employees passing by newsstands will casually flip through the pages and find articles about PanShi color TVs.

The advertising trend of PanShi TVs has completely created an even deeper wave of enthusiasm.

Official media outlets such as the Liaoyang Provincial Radio and Television News and the Liaoyang Provincial Evening News published in-depth reports on Changhong Factory and Lin Xiaohe, among others.

The newspaper photos of a constant stream of trucks and factories with chimneys belching smoke revealed a long-lost industrial atmosphere, instantly catching the attention of passersby.

Who says women are inferior to men? A 20-year-old female factory manager creates a miracle of orders exceeding 100 million!

"Haiyan Brand Sauna Bathtubs and Panshi Color TVs: The Mastermind Behind Them is Actually Her!"

"In-depth discussion of the successful marketing of Panshi TVs: Implications for Chinese enterprises"

She said: Even the best wine needs advertising. In this new era, good products need to be promoted loudly!

A male salesman picked up two newspapers and read them as he walked: "This is amazing! Our boss even organized a study meeting yesterday, telling us to learn more about Director Lin's competitive sales mindset."

His colleague next to him, eating a steamed bun in one bite and slurping up soy milk, complained, "He's always making empty promises to us. Last time, he even said he wanted to learn some kind of Hong Kong and Taiwan 'wolf culture,' where the more you work, the more you earn, and he even canceled the 100 yuan base salary for the month. It's like wanting the horse to run but not wanting it to eat grass."

The man crumpled the trash into a ball, shoved it into his pocket, and said with a bitter taste in his mouth, "Why doesn't he learn from Director Lin and give us a portion of the company's shares as an incentive?"

Honestly, if it weren't for the difficulty in finding a job, he wouldn't have stayed at this company.

I worked hard for a month but didn't earn a penny; in fact, I lost money.

The two were flipping through the newspaper when they were immediately drawn to a job advertisement on the advertising page.

We are building a road to the future.

The future is not a place we are going to, but a place we are creating.

—Lin Xiaohe from Changhong Factory

Changhong Factory is hiring: Senior Engineer (No restrictions)
Key production technicians (no limit)

Regional Sales Representatives (50 people)

The two men's eyes were fixed on the salesperson's benefits: a base salary of 500 yuan, a travel allowance of 40 yuan per day, high commissions, and outstanding performers would also be rewarded with the right to use a Santana for three years.

I go!

Their eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.

Is this the kind of boldness that Director Lin possesses?

Hesitating for even a second longer would be disrespectful to Director Lin's sincerity!

……

"Haha, Changhong Factory is developing very well, they've started recruiting again."

Deputy Senior Official Wang Wei was too busy to spare more than ten minutes to listen to Lin Xiaohe's work report.

However, to show his regard for Lin Xiaohe, Wang Wei's secretary sent someone to pick her up.

Lin Xiaohe followed behind the secretary and said modestly, "This is all thanks to the trust and support of the leaders and the villagers."

The Liaoyang Provincial Government building is much more impressive than the one in Anning County.

Inside the building, the staff coming and going all exuded a unique aura, a confidence ingrained by power. Occasionally, someone would recognize Lin Xiaohe and glance at her a few more times, but most would only give her a quick look before focusing on their own affairs.

Keep your eyes closed, your mouth shut, and especially, don't be curious.

Lin Xiaohe entered the provincial government building step by step.

The secretary subtly observed her and was surprised to find that she was not nervous at all, but rather remarkably calm.

Back then, when he first came here to be interviewed by the organization, he didn't sleep well for several days, and his legs felt weak.

Is Lin Xiaohe's mental fortitude really that strong? Or is it because she has a strong sense of self-confidence?

Thinking of this, the secretary sighed softly.

Some people's excellence is simply impossible to hide.

"Enter."

Lin Xiaohe pushed open the office door, and what came into view was a face that often appeared on television.

Deputy Senior Official Wang, with graying temples, sleeves rolled up to his elbows, glasses perched on his back, and a furrowed brow, was reviewing official documents.

He looked up, saw Lin Xiaohe, and smiled.

Perhaps because he is usually too serious, this smile was faint.

"Good morning, leader." Lin Xiaohe sat down opposite him.

Time was short, so she didn't say much and went straight to the point: "This is our Changhong factory's development plan for the next three years. In addition to focusing on the home appliance industry, we also plan to expand our PHS (Personal Handyphone System) business."

"With the telecommunications reform, China Telecom and China Netcom were stripped of their mobile businesses and were only allowed to do fixed-line business. Faced with the high profits of China Mobile and China Unicom, the established giants had a strong anxiety about survival and urgently needed to develop businesses that skirted the rules. Our PHS (Personal Handyphone System) is a sharp knife for the telecommunications industry."

The Ministry of Information Industry was well aware of its technological backwardness. In order to catch up with the world's level, it skipped the conventional steps and jumped directly to digital program control.

Its essence is to use capital to buy time, and use time to force the industry to adapt.

Having paid such a high price, the Ministry of Information Industry naturally doesn't want you to turn around and ride a bicycle after finally getting on the highway.

The foundation of PHS (Personal Handyphone System) was the PHS technology that Japan had already phased out, which was widely recognized as a wrong approach within the industry.

In order to promote the telecommunications industry's move towards 3G, the Ministry of Information Industry deliberately split up several major giants and issued licenses to allow newly spun-off companies such as China Unicom to get a head start.

Faced with the situation of having meat but not being able to eat it, Dongguk Telecom would naturally want to break through.

Historically, telecommunications companies bypassed licensing issues through PHS (Personal Handyphone System) and popularized the telecommunications industry in East Korea by relying on extremely low prices.

Unfortunately, Liaoyang Province had Liaoguang Factory, Huaguang Factory, and other third-line military electronics enterprises from the 70s, but they did not benefit from the era of PHS (Personal Handyphone System).

These factories had SMT (Surface Mount Technology) lines and skilled female workers. They had made tape recorder mechanisms for Sanyo in Japan and were fully capable of manufacturing PHS (Personal Handyphone System) devices. However, they stopped production on a large scale in 98, and thousands of female workers over 40 years old were forced into early retirement.

What Lin Xiaohe wanted to do was to take advantage of Dongguo Telecom's desire to break through and seize the opportunity in the Xiaolingtong market.

Earning a few good years of money can sustain the heavy industry in Liaoyang Province.

In the coming years, we can promote the upgrading of industrial technology in Liaoyang Province, strive to break through the difficulties, and get through the three most difficult years of the 2000s.

Deputy Senior Official Wang adjusted his glasses, looking intently at Lin Xiaohe. He patiently waited for Lin Xiaohe to finish speaking before saying, "Okay, I understand. This involves many aspects and requires further consideration. What you need to do now is to focus on the production of Panshi color TVs and turn things around."

Lin Xiaohe swallowed a sigh: "Okay, boss."

The technology is not the problem in promoting the PHS (Personal Handyphone System) business; the difficulty lies in policy.

The Ministry of Information Industry and China Mobile are at odds, and Liaoyang Province and the central government also have their own positions.

At times like these, most people just want to get through this period smoothly.
