However, faced with this situation, Lin Hui has always been very clear-headed. Her home is just a breakfast shop, and its biggest audience is the nearby residents. Those who come all the way just to taste delicious food only do so occasionally, and it is impossible to come here for a long time. consumption.

Time flies, two years passed, and in 1995, several children of the Zhu family also ended their studies and returned to their respective positions.

Except for Zhu Weidong, the third child, everyone else's studies were related to their own jobs, so after improving their academic qualifications, they were more or less promoted, either by increasing their salary, or by increasing their level and salary together.

However, after they received promotions and salary increases, they were not as happy as expected, because the efficiency of each factory was not as good as before, and it continued to decline.

Because of Lin Hui's reminder and their two years of study and attention, they were also aware of the changes in national policies and market conditions, and were very worried about the increasingly scarce orders from their own units.

If this continues, it will be useless even if they become factory workers. If the factory is no longer good, what's the use of being at a higher level?

Because of the reduction in orders, the workers on the production line have not worked overtime for an unknown period of time. They only have a basic salary every month and no overtime pay or bonuses. However, the prices in the market continue to rise. Every month That salary is simply not enough for expenses.

The most serious situation is the canning factory where the boss Zhu Jianli works. Their factory produces canned fruits of all kinds, and now it has reached the point where it has begun to owe workers wages.

In the past, canned fruit was a rare item, and it was considered decent to take two cans of canned fruit when visiting relatives, friends, or patients. However, with the development of the market economy after the reform and opening up, many more high-end and exquisite nutritional products have emerged on the market. , canned food has gradually become a daily food.

However, as the country vigorously develops its economy, goods flow smoothly between the north and the south. Fruits are no longer as rare as they used to be. They are easily available on the market and are cheaper and fresher than canned fruits. The originally popular canned fruits are gradually being disliked by the market.

Canneries used to rely on orders from local supply and marketing cooperatives and state-owned department stores, so they could operate at full capacity without any worries.

But this is not the era of coupons. Supply and marketing cooperatives can guarantee harvests despite droughts and floods. They currently have a backlog of unsalable products. Naturally, they will not purchase any more unpopular items like cans.

The same goes for department stores. In recent years, many private stores have opened in various places. Although there are not many comprehensive shopping malls, there are always some outstanding stores in each category. Coupled with the lack of ticket constraints, Department stores are no longer people’s first choice for shopping, which has put many department stores in trouble.

The cannery lacked orders, and the backlog of products in the warehouse could not be sold. Gradually, it began to make ends meet and wanted to ask the superiors for help. However, there were more such factories now, and the superiors could not control them. Even if the factory director blocked the door of the leaders every day, he could not Useless!

There is no other way but to increase revenue and reduce expenditure. At the beginning, wages were given at a discount, first [-]% off, then [-]% off. In the end, we had no choice but to owe the money first, and the money was not paid. Who would work anymore? In the warehouse?

Besides, the factory still owed money to many fruit farmers, and they were no longer willing to supply them with goods at this time. Without fruit, where would the cans come from?

Although after Zhu Jianshe obtained a college diploma, the factory transferred him to a cadre position according to regulations, and he was promoted to a team leader, and his salary was also increased. However, at that time, most of the machines on the production line were idle, and then his salary was reduced. Discounts started, and then within two months wages could no longer be paid, and production was completely stopped.

Before he, the so-called team leader, could use what he had learned in the past two years and apply new technologies to production, he became a complete display.

Originally, Zhu Jianshe wanted to make suggestions to the leaders and make some changes, but at this time the factory was already in great difficulty. The leaders were all hoping for help from their superiors and did not take his suggestions as a young man seriously at all. He made a bad impression.

I felt that this young man had just gone to study for two years, and when he came back he started to talk nonsense. They had been working in the cannery for many years, so why did they still need to be taught how to produce?

What's more, the factory is short of funds and orders now. As long as the superiors are willing to allocate funds to purchase some raw materials, and then allocate some orders, once the machines are running, the factory can be revitalized!

Zhu Jianli failed to make a suggestion, but was rejected instead. He could only shake his head helplessly with a bitter smile. Just like what his mother said, the leaders still held on to the old ideas of the past, waiting, relying, and demanding. They were separated from the country and superiors and did not manage alone at all. If factories cannot adapt to social changes, they will be eliminated sooner or later.

What's more, the equipment in the factory is old, the production methods are backward, the efficiency is low, and it cannot keep up with the development of the times. Just making some small changes cannot make the factory rejuvenate.

The cannery is not an isolated case. The machinery factory where the second child works, the textile factory where the third child works, the soap factory where the fourth child works, and the clothing factory where Zhu Airong works are all facing difficulties to varying degrees. There are tens of millions of people across the country. Thousands of state-owned factories are also undergoing this change.

This is an inevitable stage that a country must go through in its development. Individuals cannot stop this process. People in it can either go with the flow and let themselves get into trouble like the factory, or they can exert their subjective initiative as much as possible and go against the flow of change. Go up and get a glimmer of hope.

Contrary to the situation of these state-owned factories, Lin Hui's breakfast shop business is increasingly prosperous.

Now, in addition to Lin Hui, the store has grown to four employees. The food has new items such as fried dough sticks and fried buns, as well as a new soup and porridge variety such as meatball soup, attracting more people to come and dine.

Although some state-owned factories tend to close down, more private companies and self-employed individuals are booming. Overall, the market is still prosperous and developing in a good direction.

Although these textile factories have failed in the past two years and orders have become increasingly scarce, after all, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. There are tens of thousands of employees in several factories. It is impossible for them to suddenly close down. This will cause trouble!

However, anyone with a little knowledge and strategy can see that these cotton spinning mills are on their last legs. They have not declared bankruptcy now, but they are just hanging on. They are like an old man who is dying and will suddenly die one day. Out of breath.

At this time, the third child Zhu Weidong found Lin Hui and told him a decision!
