Chapter 2269
We need to help people from other provinces settle down.
"Old He, there's no need to hold a grudge."
"Many things, even if you or I were in that position, we might not be able to do them very well." After the meeting, Comrade Lao Niu specifically pulled He Yuzhu aside to comfort him.
He had worked with He Yuzhu for several years, so he could naturally tell that He Yuzhu's speech on stage just now was tinged with his own temper.
For him, it's not too late to hold this meeting now.
After all, motorcycle factories are still profitable, and the profits are quite high.
In other words, sales in external markets declined by 60 percent in the first half of this year compared to the same period last year.
The key point is that this decline is closely related to global trends.
Putting aside other things, several of our neighbors have been affected because of our family's beating of monkeys.
Therefore, there have been some fluctuations in trade with our family.
The reason is quite simple: the monkey has the support of our neighbor to the north.
Therefore, those who are concerned about that family are mostly observing and waiting to see what happens to us.
Meanwhile, Amarica's allies have begun to open their markets to us.
However, our industrial products cannot currently compete with Western technology in any aspect.
In the past year or two, our resources and primary processed products have achieved leapfrog development.
But for products that are even slightly high-tech, it's really, really difficult.
He Yuzhu did not hide his anger in front of Lao Niu.
Instead, he bluntly asked, "What is the job of a leader?"
If you're just a yes-man, you can bring a dog along and be a good one too.
Sending them to be leaders in that factory means letting them lead the entire factory forward and requiring them to have their own independent thinking.
……
Old Niu, I'm in a hurry!
I did give them directions.
Since our technical skills aren't up to par, we'll focus on packaging and appearance first.
It can at least capture a portion of the market.
What is this now?
We've completely lost the external market, and then as our market further opens up, we'll lose the domestic market as well.
In the end, what will we have left?
Aging machines
The elderly worker,
The burden is getting heavier and heavier; who will clean up this mess?
He Yuzhu spoke with a tone of exasperation at his son's lack of ambition.
He truly hated it.
If he hadn't paid attention to that before, we would have fallen behind from the very beginning, and it's understandable that the motorcycle factory leaders are now complaining about being poor.
But he clearly warned me.
Putting aside other things, he even had the Sijiucheng Motorcycle Factory produce a prototype of a Yamaha model.
There's still a hand-operated car parked in his garage.
At the time, he repeatedly instructed the motorcycle factory to apply for a design patent in Hong Kong.
There was no result.
The Yamaha RX125, with its square headlights, red fuel tank, and slightly upturned rear, became an instant hit in Southeast Asia upon its release.
The price is around six to eight thousand.
It completely crushed the happiness of the 250s generation in Beijing.
At the Sijiucheng Motorcycle Factory, they discovered that the motorcycle in question was almost identical to the one that He Yuzhu had them handcraft back then.
We were thinking of producing it, but the design patent had already been applied for and approved by someone else.
This is the most frustrating thing for He Yuzhu.
He already reminded me!
I got up very early, but arrived late.
He Yuzhu's feelings of regret were pretty much like that.
Although He Yuzhu was well aware that with their technological reserves, even with some innovation in appearance, they couldn't compete with smaller companies in the international market. But they still felt that if they spent a few patent application fees, they could secure these things first, given that they clearly had a grasp of the technology.
At the very least, it will add some trouble to our daily lives.
Because the motorcycle factory's leaders didn't care, even this highlight was snatched away by someone else.
Old Niu remained silent for a while, understanding the source of his old friend's frustration.
If he were still the factory manager of the television factory, he could also complain about the leaders of the motorcycle factory just like He Yuzhu.
But his position is different now; he must take a holistic view and consider the development of each company below.
"Old He, have you thought about changing seats?"
"Go and do some actual work." Old Niu was silent for a while before saying to He Yuzhu.
In his opinion, He Yuzhu was indeed a talented person who could build a career.
If he were to go out and take charge of a specific factory, he would definitely do an outstanding job.
However, He Yuzhu's chaotic marital situation made his words sound rather unconvincing.
Moreover, He Yuzhu didn't even hesitate, but immediately shook his head and said, "I'm not going. I'll stay at the CNC Academy."
Even if I go out, I can't do anything.
There are too many obstacles below.
Old Niu was so angry he laughed. He Yuzhu knew everything, but he was happy to stay in his current position and laugh at the company leaders who actually did the work.
He Yuzhu glanced at the old ox with a slight upturn at the corner of his mouth and couldn't help but laugh, "Don't think I'm just talking without understanding the situation."
The motorcycle factory had that opportunity back then.
As for why I didn't go to a specific unit, Lao Niu, you should understand my concerns.
It's not that I'm afraid, but I know it's difficult for me to cultivate a deep expertise in a particular industry.
You know my temperament. If I'm going to do something, it will definitely require long-term planning, significant investment, and a long timeframe.
No one can guarantee that to me.
Therefore, I am not suited to be the head of any company in my lifetime.
"Hiss..." The old ox couldn't help but hiss coldly.
He Yuzhu had considered this idea before, but he hadn't thought about it in such detail.
Lao Niu's original idea was that He Yuzhu was insightful, so he should be sent to a certain industry to set a good example for others.
However, the subsequent problems were overlooked.
"By the way, Lao He, why did your college decide to start a business with the door industry?" Lao Niu changed the subject again.
"The entry threshold is low and the market size is large, so we should take advantage of the reform and opening up."
How to retain outstanding talents in major cities will inevitably be a problem to be considered in the future.
Income, benefits, lifestyle, housing...
These are all problems that need to be solved. He Yuzhu's words were rather disorganized and even repetitive.
But he wasn't just talking nonsense. Just like now, income and benefits are not the same thing in big cities.
Putting aside other things, in those small southern cities that have undergone reform and opening up, the migrant workers who earn 150 or 160 yuan a month do not live as comfortably as the collective enterprise workers who earn 80 or 90 yuan a month.
In terms of living conditions, they are even less able to compare with those workers who have stable jobs.
"Do you think that the flow of labor across the country will become the norm in the future?" Old Niu pondered for a moment, then couldn't help but frown and ask.
This person will definitely deserve the word 'great' in the future.
However, the social development he is currently exposed to still limits his understanding.
He Yuzhu nodded seriously and said with a wry smile, "In the future, the group of people who work across provinces will definitely be quite large."
Tens of millions, hundreds of millions, even the majority of the workforce will choose to work across provinces. ... (End of Chapter)
