Siheyuan: I earned foreign exchange in the heyday

In the end, Uncle Nie failed to spray the car's exterior paint red, and instead sprayed it army green.

Chen Changan accompanied him throughout the whole process.

Sometimes, don't take your leader's polite words seriously.

Chen Changan is not stupid, so how could he go to the meeting and arrange work by himself?

Letting Uncle Nie wait alone is not the right way to treat a leader.

Uncle Nie also knew that as long as he stayed in the automobile factory, Chen Changan would always be by his side.

The car factory had to welcome a senior leader tomorrow, so after the paint dried, they prepared to leave without even eating.

Seeing that Uncle Nie insisted on leaving, Chen Changan was afraid that Uncle Nie’s car would break down on the way.

A spare tire and a full set of tools were also prepared in the car. After all, Uncle Nie had a secretary and a driver with him.

If there is a real problem, the driver can still give it a try to see if it can be solved on the spot.

Drivers in this era were different from those in later generations. There were not so many repair shops.

There is no phone to call for help. A qualified driver not only needs to know how to drive, but also how to repair the car.

Uncle Nie left. There was still some time before dinner, so Chen Changan convened a meeting of factory leaders.

Li Chenglin, Hou Yan, Shi Heping and others have already arrived.

As for Hou Mingjun, Chen Changan did not call him. After all, he had done something wrong, and the treatment he received was no longer the same.

I want him to reflect on himself for a few days and continue to work his night shift honestly.

“You should all know about Uncle Nie’s recent arrival at the factory.

This time our factory produced cars, which has alarmed the senior leaders.

The leader will come to inspect our factory tomorrow. This is not the first time we have experienced this kind of thing.

We all know what to do. I would like to emphasize a few points here.

First, regarding confidentiality, the leader’s whereabouts must never be disclosed in advance.

You can clean the house, but you must never mention which leader is coming.

Secondly, the purpose of the leader’s visit is very clear, which is to see the cars we produce.

Sister Hou, Shi Heping has another task. Go to the design department and ask them to prepare all the design drawings.

Including the appearance drawings on the wall, prepare them and hang as many as you need.

I guess the big boss will probably ask to see these things tomorrow.

Finally, whether you watch it or not, we must be prepared, so that we don’t have to tidy it up on the spot, which will not look good.

Tell the design department that they must not let me down.

Third, Shi Heping, you have a heavy task.

Since we are here to see the cars, we can't just look at the one that Uncle Nie drove away and be done with it.

There must be an assembled sample car, and there cannot be only one.

If it is too little, the senior leaders will think that this may just be a face-saving project.

Tonight you take some people and call Hou Mingjun as well. Please work hard to prepare three or five cars for the inspection by the senior leader tomorrow.

In addition, not only the finished cars, I hope to let the leaders see the assembly line conditions of our automobile workshop.

We need to demonstrate the advantages of the assembly line and let senior leaders see the advanced status of our automobile production line.

The last point is about you, Li Chenglin.

Your problem is not serious. Your place will definitely be taken over by other units tomorrow morning.

You stay with me then, in case there are any enemy spies in our factory.

If you see the big boss make any move and I don't have time to stop him, you have to step up at the critical moment."

After lunch, many workshops have already started cleaning.

The entire automobile factory has been overloaded with tasks in recent times.

This is mainly because the sales of load-carrying three-wheeled motorcycles in third world countries are very good.

As a result, the orders from Hong Kong Island have been continuous. The focus of the entire automobile factory is on three-wheeled load-carrying tricycles.

That is, Shi Heping selected a number of mid-level workers and prepared to use them as the backbone of future automobile production.

For a large factory with tens of thousands of employees like an automobile factory, the impact of transferring a few hundred people is not that big.

However, with the jeep coming off the production line of the automobile factory and Chen Changan's subsequent pickup truck project.

A few hundred people are simply not enough, so the car factory has to prepare to recruit workers again.

As the country has gradually become self-sufficient in grain in recent years, the import of grain has basically stopped in order to save foreign exchange.

There is no way. There are too many places that need foreign exchange, but there are not many units that can earn foreign exchange.

Although Uncle Nie has returned, his purpose of returning is also to earn foreign exchange.

The scientific research projects in the northwest have never stopped.

Not only can the development of our country's important equipment not stop, but we must also continue to increase investment.

More and more foreign exchange will be needed. Our country has been stagnant for so long due to the war. We are paying off the debts to our predecessors.

At the same time, the medical and industrial fields are major users of foreign exchange.

In the past, we had no money and no other options. Importing all kinds of equipment was unthinkable.

We cannot say that all the equipment that needs to be imported can be purchased in recent years, but at least we see a glimmer of hope, right?

A member of your city of Sijiu has imported advanced equipment. Are hospitals in other areas of our country not worthy of it?

Aren’t the lives of our people important?

In the medical field alone, hospitals in various regions are already arguing with each other.

After all, the foreign exchange earned by Chinese medicine pharmaceutical factories each year is limited.

Our country is so large that it is impossible to take care of all areas.

There must always be an order of priority, and the number of places must be determined based on the population size.

There is only one quota for one device per province.

In some areas, it’s still okay, there is only one hospital, and the one with the strongest strength is definitely the one to take the lead.

What I’m worried about is that there are two or even three hospitals with similar levels. That would be a problem.

Even friends and classmates of many years could quarrel over this machine.

This situation does not only occur in the medical field, but in all fields.

It sounds funny, but it is the helplessness of this era.

We are barely self-sufficient in food, and having some reserves is enough.

This has led to a national restriction on the urban population and the total number of workers nationwide.

After all, people with urban hukou are supplied with food, so as long as it involves recruitment, there will definitely be the issue of converting rural hukou into urban hukou.

The total amount of food is limited, and it is impossible for the urban population and the total number of workers to account for too large a proportion.

So when it came to the issue of the automobile factory needing to recruit a lot of workers, even Uncle Nie couldn't agree to it outright.

Therefore, regarding the issue of recruitment at the automobile factory, we will have to wait until tomorrow when the superior leaders see the specific situation of the automobile factory before we can give an answer.

After all, there are many issues involved here.

For example, the country's demand for jeeps, the country's grain production, and the proportion of workers.

Should we transfer people from other workers or recruit and train them ourselves? The question is how many workers the auto factory needs.

So Chen Changan plans to report the pickup truck issue to his top boss tomorrow.

Otherwise, when we need to produce pickup trucks, it will be too troublesome to add another production line and recruit workers.
