Rebirth of the Industrial Tycoon

Poverty alleviation has always been a top priority in China.

In the 1990s, the domestic application was still formulated in 1986, with an annual income of less than 206 yuan as the standard of absolute poverty. This standard was calculated based on the minimum nutritional requirement of 2,100 calories per person per day.

Later, the domestic poverty standards continued to improve, and the investment and intensity of poverty alleviation work became more and more intense. By 2020, China finally won a comprehensive victory in the battle against poverty, and 1.4 billion people have been lifted off the hat of poverty.

Although Qinghe is located in the eastern part of the country, its economic output is still in the near future, but because of the relatively large population within its jurisdiction, once it is counted per capita, it is the countdown to the province.

The development of the Qinghe area is also uneven. There are large rivers and mountains within the city of Qinghe. Where there are rivers, it is a plain, and economic development is naturally good. Where there are mountains, it is not easy to find even a piece of flat farmland. Coupled with the inconvenience of transportation, the economy is naturally underdeveloped.

Those poor households who live in the mountains have never been out of the mountains in their entire lives. They are really poor families wearing a pair of trousers.

There are twelve county-level jurisdictions in Qinghe, six of which are national poverty-stricken counties, mainly concentrated in mountainous areas.

Now that Chen Chuanxin came to inspect, he obviously not only expressed his encouragement and support to Li Weidong, but also for the poverty alleviation work.

I just heard Chen Chuanxin say: "Director Li, the farmers who have left their hometowns to work and are unfamiliar with their places of life are mostly concerned about three things, one is how much the wages are, the second is whether they will be hungry, and the third is whether they have a place to live.

And your factory has a canteen and built so many dormitories, which just solved the last two problems. This is very rare among township enterprises. Migrant workers from other counties come to work in your factory. "

Li Weidong smiled slightly and said, "What the leader said is that our factory even distributes clothes. If you come to work in our factory, you can really come empty-handed."

"So Director Li is willing to go to other counties to recruit workers?" Chen Chuanxin asked immediately.

"As long as they can work, anyone can do it." Li Weidong replied cheerfully.

"That's great. Well, I'll go back and ask the people from the Municipal Poverty Alleviation Office to connect with you. Next time, if your factory recruits workers, let the people from the Poverty Alleviation Office be in charge. I can bring you as many people as you want!" Chen Chuanxin said with a smile.

beside,

The expressions of several leaders in Dongcheng District looked a little unnatural. The common people in Dongcheng District also needed employment. If they recruited people in those poor counties, wouldn’t they be taking away the employment indicators in Dongcheng District!

Li Weidong said, "Leader, in fact, I also have an idea and want to report to the leader."

"Director Li, please speak." Chen Chuanxin said immediately.

Li Weidong said: "Small home appliance OEM is a driving-intensive industry, and it does require a lot of labor. According to my estimation, at least 5,000 people are needed to take over the small home appliance production business of Xizhi Electric, so as to meet the needs of Xizhi. electrical needs.

In the future, I also plan to win OEM orders from other brands, such as Panasonic, Sony, Hitachi, Sharp, etc. In addition to Japanese brands, American brands, European brands, and their OEM orders can also be used. Therefore, in the future, our factory may need tens of thousands of employees, engaged in the production of small household appliances.

With the development model of our factory, in addition to the production area, we also need to build a living area, which will require more land. The current factory area of ​​our factory can only accommodate 1,500 people. Even if we want to expand in the future, There is not that much land anymore. So I would like to ask the leaders to help solve the land-related matters. "

Chen Chuanxin nodded and turned to look at the leaders of Dongcheng District: "Can Xiangyang Town come up with extra land?"

"There is land, and we can convert part of the agricultural land into industrial land, so that we can meet the needs of Director Li!" Someone immediately replied.

Li Weidong smiled and said, "Thanks for the support of the leaders, but I think it is too unplanned. Today our factory wants to expand, so we will find a piece of farmland and give it to us for industrial use. Tomorrow, other factories will need it. If they expand, they will find another piece of farmland and turn it into industrial land and give them to them, which will affect the farmers and will be inconvenient to manage in the future.”

"Does Director Li have any better suggestions?" Chen Chuanxin asked.

"Leader, I think that the city should come forward and plan an industrial park. When the time comes, the enterprises will directly move to the industrial park, and it will be easier to manage. Moreover, the industrial park can be uniformly arranged for power supply, water supply, coal supply, The cost of sewage, road transportation and other systems will also be lower." Li Weidong said.

Chen Chuanxin nodded: "Director Li's idea is very good. In fact, there have been discussions on relevant aspects in the city, but because the stakes are so important and there are many problems that need to be solved, we haven't come up with a feasible plan yet."

"Are you worried in the city that after the completion of the industrial park, no companies are willing to settle in?" Li Weidong asked directly.

Chen Chuanxin smiled a little embarrassedly, apparently being told by Li Weidong.

In the 1990s, domestic enterprises were still dominated by state-owned enterprises and collective enterprises, and not many could be called the private economy, let alone the private economy.

State-owned enterprises have been passed down for ten or decades. The old state-owned enterprises have their own land, and the planning on the land has been completed, and they will not be relocated easily.

For an enterprise that has been established for many years, the cost of relocation is relatively high. It costs money to dismantle the equipment and then install it, and the losses caused by the inability to produce during the period must also be included.

The key is that the company has moved away, what about the family area?

The family area is all with the company, and employees can enter the workshop with two steps out of the family building. If the company wants to move out, should the family building be built in advance? Otherwise, how should the family members of so many employees be arranged?

If only the company is relocated and the family building is not relocated, what should the employees do when they commute to get off work? At that time, ordinary people could not afford a private car, and they relied on bicycles to commute to and from get off work.

Therefore, even if an industrial park is built, it is definitely difficult for state-owned enterprises to relocate.

As for collective enterprises, most of them are owned by counties, towns, and village collectives. It is even more impossible for them to leave their own counties, towns, or villages to set up camps in other industrial parks.

Under the circumstances at that time, special zones, coastal areas and important transportation hub cities could plan industrial parks because they had the advantages of policies and geographical locations and could attract some enterprises.

Ordinary cities don't have the slightest advantage. Even if an industrial park is planned, no enterprises will settle in.

Li Weidong also understood this. When he saw Chen Chuanxin smiling awkwardly, he knew he was right!

So Li Weidong said: "Leader, in fact, the industrial park is not necessary to do it overnight, you can take it slowly and try it out with a first phase plan. If it is successful, then the second and third phases will be developed, and gradually the industrial park will be developed. expand."

Chen Chuanxin nodded: "We will carefully consider the suggestion of Director Li.

Li Weidong decided to continue to overweight, so he said, "Leader, I will express my position here. If the city really plans an industrial park, then our factory will be the first to settle in!"

"Oh?" Chen Chuanxin suddenly became interested, he thought about it for a moment, and then asked, "Director Li, the matter of this industrial park has not yet been clarified, and even if it is planned, can it be done? Success or not.

The construction and relocation of this new factory area, as well as the supporting facilities of various facilities, all cost money. If the industrial park fails, you will lose money! "

"Even if I lose money, can't I still earn a piece of land!" Li Weidong said half-jokingly.

"Director Li is probably joking, and the land is not worth much!" Chen Chuanxin said.

Li Weidong just smiled and did not speak.

After all, it was 1990, and Chen Chuanxin didn't realize the value of real estate, so she naturally felt that the land was not worth much.

Thirty years later, all 30-story high-rise residences will be built and sold for 11,000 square meters!

...

In fact, Li Weidong didn't want to be trapped in Xiangyang Town for a long time.

Xiangyang Town is still too close to the urban area. It is only 20 kilometers away from the city center. In less than ten years, the city will expand here. Therefore, Xiangyang Town is not suitable for large-scale industrial production.

So even if there is no industrial park in the city, Li Weidong plans to move the factory out and find a place that is farther away from the city and more convenient for transportation.

If there is an industrial park, it will be even better. Li Weidong can directly enter the industrial park and attract the upstream supply chain.

For OEM companies, the upstream supply chain is an extremely important factor. Any large-scale foundry company is basically together with the upstream supply chain. If the upstream supply chain is too far away from the foundry company, the cost will increase significantly. In many cases, the upstream supply chain will also move with the foundry.

This is especially true for small home appliance OEMs. Even small home appliances with a relatively simple structure require dozens of components and many upstream component manufacturers. If upstream component manufacturers can gather together, the cost will inevitably be greatly increased. decrease.

This cost reduction is not just transportation costs, but also design costs and production costs.

For example, if the customer temporarily modifies the plan, if the upstream supply chain is relatively close, the parts can be modified in a short time, and the foundry can also produce new products in the shortest time.

The future of smartphones is like this. Since the entire industrial chain of mobile phone production is in China, if Apple temporarily changes the design, it only takes a week for Foxconn to mass-produce the new mobile phone after the change. For other countries without an industrial chain, this process takes two months!

...

Li Weidong also does not know whether the industrial park can be successful or not. Even if it is, it will take two or three years from site selection, land acquisition to the improvement of various infrastructure constructions.

However, the city's support for Li Weidong is solid.

For example, President Wu is here to send loans again!
