Countercurrent 1978 starts with the production team

Under the warm spring light, Xu Chunyan and Chu Jianghe were walking on the road in Xiaohe Village. From time to time, several children running past with schoolbags on their backs laughing.

After running over, they all looked back to look at this beautiful big sister from the city.

But after Xu Chunyan greeted them with a smile, they ran away shyly, which showed that they were still very shy at heart.

At this time, children in rural areas did not have heavy homework. In addition to helping the family in their free time, they were very naughty at other times. They climbed trees to pick out birds and went down to rivers to catch fish. There was nothing they dared to do.

Regarding this matter, Chu Jianghe also had a headache, fearing that something might happen to the children while they were playing.

He has also come from this stage, and there is nothing he can do about it. It is better to block it than to block it. All he can do is make people pay more attention, especially not let them go to deep water to play in the water.

Chu Jianghe looked at these children and smiled: "Reporter Xu, you just saw it at the entrance of the brigade headquarters. Opposite the brigade headquarters is the newly built school in our village. These children will be able to go to the new school this fall."

Xu Chunyan said with admiration: "Secretary Chu, I understand all this. I fully agree with your emphasis on education. There are not many other villages that value education as much as you do."

She comes from a big city and works in an organization like People's Daily, so she naturally understands the thoughts of her superiors and understands the importance of education.

Chu Jianghe did not comment on Xu Chunyan's praise.

Chu Jianghe seemed to remember something and suddenly smiled.

Xu Chunyan asked in confusion: "What is Secretary Chu laughing at?"

"Even if I thought of a joke, it can't be called a joke. If you think about it carefully, it's a bit sad."

Xu Chunyan was very interested: "Secretary Chu, come and listen to what he has to say, and let me learn from it too."

Chu Jianghe collected his thoughts and began to tell her: "It was said that a reporter went to the countryside to interview and met a sheep-herding baby. The reporter asked: Why don't you go to school?...The reporter asked: What are you doing to have a baby? Herding sheep. Child: Let him herd the sheep."

A very common little story in the past life, very ironic.

This was the first time Xu Chunyan heard this story. After hearing it, she first smiled and then fell into deep thought.

After a while, Xu Chunyan also looked sad and said: "I didn't expect Secretary Chu to be a philosopher. This story is very educational if you think about it carefully."

Looking at Chu Jianghe standing with a smile, if he hadn't been wearing coarse clothes and changed his outfit, he would definitely be a handsome young man.

Xu Chunyan looked at Chu Jianghe in a different way. What kind of person was he?

Chu Jianghe did not dwell too much on this topic. He took her to see the brick factory in Xiaohe Village and gave her a detailed introduction to the piece-rate payment system implemented in Xiaohe Village.

After listening to Chu Jianghe’s introduction, Xu Chunyan was surprised again: “Secretary Chu, on April 4, the above just discussed the trial implementation of the reward and piece-rate wage system in state-owned enterprises. I didn’t expect that your Xiaohe Village would start to implement it now. Can I tell you in detail the changes after the implementation of this system?”

"Since we implemented the piece-based payment system, the enthusiasm of the members has been unprecedentedly high, and their enthusiasm for production has been fully mobilized. The phenomenon of idle work has disappeared, everyone has become more motivated, the production efficiency has been greatly improved, and the efficiency of the brick factory has also been improved. A substantial increase……"

Chu Jianghe was talking, and Xu Chunyan was taking notes with a pen.

At that time, there were more than 40 large and medium-sized enterprises in the country. The original economic system resulted in many enterprises with high investment, low output, high accumulation, and low efficiency. This was a major problem that confused people.

Chu Jianghe bluntly pointed out that only by mobilizing the enthusiasm of workers and improving production efficiency can current common problems in state-owned enterprises be solved.

The brick factory in Xiaohe Village can prove this.

When it comes to reform, we always start with the subtleties, and then slowly let go after seeing the effects. There is no way to make drastic changes right from the start.

Chu Jianghe also hopes that his remarks can provide a little help for the decision-making above.

Xu Chunyan has no research on such a big topic and thinks she is not qualified to comment. She can only record it truthfully first.

Then, Chu Jianghe took her to visit the pig farm in Xiaohe Village.

As soon as we entered the pig farm, we naturally met Mr. Song Liansheng, who was resting on a recliner, still listening to the radio.

This old man really knows how to enjoy it.

After saying hello to him, this guy just opened his eyes and looked.

When he saw a female comrade following Chu Jianghe, he took a second look and waved his hand, meaning to let the two of them do what they wanted.

Liu Laoshi had tipped him off about things in the village, and this woman must be the new female reporter.

When Chu Jianghe saw this person's behavior, he was not surprised for a long time. He just laughed dryly and explained to Xu Chunyan who was a little confused next to him.

"This is the technical consultant of our pig farm."

Technical Adviser? Such a big rack?

To put it bluntly, Xu Chunyan was just a guest and a bystander. She couldn't meddle in other people's business, so she just smiled.

After taking Xu Chunyan for a walk, it was the first time for Xu Chunyan to see a village-level pig farm of this size, and she was amazed. This was a big deal.

"Secretary Chu, it's really hard for me to imagine how your Xiaohe Village built such a large pig farm in just two months when it was so poor."

Chu Jianghe felt a little embarrassed when he mentioned this. He still owed Yuejin Piglet Factory a lot of money.

"This is really the right time."

Immediately, we decided to mobilize the members to turn an abandoned brick kiln into a brick factory and make our first money.

The key was to briefly explain to her how to go to Yuejin Piglet Factory to buy piglets and how to obtain grain.

Chu Jianghe said it calmly, but Xu Chunyan was not an ignorant person. She knew that in this series of things, any mistake in any link could lead to the final failure. The person who must have played a key role in this process was the young man in front of her. Secretary Chu.

Xu Chunyan couldn't help but admire her and said, "Without you, Secretary Chu, who planned the strategy, how could Xiaohe Village be where it is today."

Chu Jianghe also knew how to be modest at this time and said: "I'm ashamed, it's just the right time."

There is no certain luck in the things he does, and it's really hard to say what the final result will be.

Xu Chunyan tentatively asked: "I believe that in less than two years, Xiaohe Village will have a [-]-head pig farm, right?"

But Chu Jianghe smiled and shook his head, saying: "No, the pig farm in Xiaohe Village will only maintain its current scale and will not expand any further."

Xu Chunyan was even more surprised: "Isn't breeding developing very well now? Is Xiaohe Village planning to do something else?"

When doing things these days, it is important to work hard and start quickly. Once you identify a project, you should make it bigger and work faster. Use the fastest speed to get the new project launched as soon as possible.

Chu Jianghe made it clear that he would not expand the scale. This was the most puzzling thing for Xu Chunyan.

"Xiaohe Village is only so big. If the pig farm expands, not to mention whether there is enough food, the environmental protection issue alone will be a headache for us."

Environmental friendly?

Seeing Xu Chunyan's puzzled eyes, Chu Jianghe couldn't help but laugh.

Environmental protection has not attracted much attention these days, so I explained it to her in detail.

Xiaohe Village should raise pigs under scientific guidance and develop without damaging the ecological environment.

There is also an issue of environmental capacity. If the scale is too large, the environment of Xiaohe Village cannot bear it, etc.

When this truth was explained, Xu Chunyan's eyes were filled with brilliance, and she said: "We need both gold and silver, as well as green water and green mountains. What Secretary Chu said is so good!"

The business of Xiaohe Village and Secretary Chu's development concept made her, a reporter, feel refreshed, and she sighed in her heart. It was really a worthwhile trip.

At this moment, she really wanted to go back to the brigade headquarters immediately, write down what she had seen and heard today, and then publish it in the newspaper as soon as possible.
