Recently, Lin Xiangrong has gone out early and returned late. Even when Lin Johnson came back yesterday, he came back very late. Seeing that his son was already asleep, he did not wake him up.

It was not until noon that Lin Qiangsheng came to the factory and the father and son met him.

"Dad, my watch factory has started construction again. Please pull some materials from the factory?" Lin Qiangsheng came to the factory director's office and said straight to the point.

Although the automobile factory is not a metal factory, there are a lot of copper and metal materials in the factory. In addition, some planned materials can be purchased through the automobile factory, which is much more convenient than Lin Johnson himself to contact those state-owned enterprises.

Today's automobile factories are in the province and are truly a big enterprise. It would take a lot of time to help the factory apply for materials in the plan from the country. Without the help of the province, it would be difficult to find a place to buy so many materials!

Lin Xiangrong put down his pen, looked at Lin Johnson, frowned and said, "You can be more at ease lately. Don't drive around in a car and run around without anything!"

Lin Qiangsheng looked at his father and asked in confusion: "What's wrong? There is no panic on the market?"

Lin Xiangrong shook his head, threw down his pen in dismay, and asked, "Have you contacted your brother? Has he gone to the front line?"

Lin Qiangsheng said oh, and it turned out that the whereabouts of the eldest brother Lin Xiangdong were unknown, which made his father anxious.

He comforted his father and said, "I believe my brother will be fine. Hasn't he been promoted to company commander? Maybe it won't be so easy to lead by example, right?"

Lin Xiangrong shook his head and said, "Rocket Cadre, who will he not go to at critical moments? Alas!" He sighed deeply, and his face showed a look of worry.

Lin Qiangsheng smiled and said, "Dad, you still say to me? Aren't you also a Rockets cadre, from a small factory with such a few people to a large factory with nearly 2,000 people now, this is also a Rockets cadre, right?"

Lin Xiangrong was happy to think about it and said in retort: ​​"2,000 people are what a big factory, but tens of thousands of people in the city are big factories!"

Lin Qiangsheng smiled and asked his father: "Is the factory okay? I see many young workers have entered the workshop!"

Lin Xiangrong shook his head and said, "There is no way! This province and city keep sending people in, not to work in the workshop, where to go! There are so many people now, and there are really three or four people working on a work station!"

Lin Qiang-Cheng-Cheng also shook his head. The above didn’t care about factory discipline and efficiency. Now the better you can arrange people, the better you can pretend to be, which means that the leader of your factory is more capable!

Lin Qiangsheng suddenly smiled and said, "I heard that Peugeot has come to our province for inspection. Maybe, they will propose to cooperate with our factory. Dad, what do you think?"

Lin Xiangrong smiled and said, "I heard that, I also hope to contact such a large company. Their technology is really enviable!"

Lin Qiangsheng smiled. This time he went abroad for inspection was so timely! This inspection allowed many leaders in the province to appreciate the achievements of economic construction in Western capitalist developed countries. Especially the modern factories of others left a deep impression on the inspection team.

After returning to China, the inspection team closed the door and made a free talk, summarizing the gains and losses of the inspection, and letting the inspectors abroad talk about their ideas and understandings, and everyone talked freely. Afterwards, the inspection team's report was handed over to the province. After reading it, the provincial leaders were shocked and held a special meeting with the inspectors for several days.

The provincial leaders realized the achievements of developed economic development abroad and were blinded. The foreign exchange income of Finland, just a few large paper companies, caught up with the whole of China. What's going on!

A factory with an annual output of 300,000 cars in France requires less than 2,000 workers, while FAW, which produces 10,000 Jiefang trucks in China, requires more than 20,000 workers. A large German coal mine mine mines mine more than one million tons of coal every year. Workers drive large forklifts to dig coal. Underground is large automated mechanical conveying equipment, and the entire coal mine requires less than 500 workers. A coal mine like this in China also requires at least 30,000 workers.

When I saw the farms in Denmark, the inspectors were even more shocked. The farms of large pigs and cattle livestock produce hundreds to thousands of livestock annually, and only one family can manage them. An international giant paper company in Finland has hundreds of thousands of acres of recycled forests, which can supply their pulp production without cutting down natural forests, and produce more than tens of millions of tons of paper per year.

A small country, Finland, also supports several giant international paper companies. The annual output value of these companies is billions of dollars, which is equivalent to the foreign exchange income of China in 1979! Finland's paper exports account for more than 25% of the world, and rely on forests to prosper a country's economy.

Province H also has forestry advantages, but where have our forests gone? It’s so strange!

Several European countries have opened their horizons to the inspection team. They all want to record what they see and hear so that they can watch it for people in the province. Unfortunately, many places they visited do not even allow photos.

During this period, the members of the inspection team held serious discussions, inquiries, tours, humbly seeking advice, and carefully tempted. Fortunately, the foreign side was also full of curiosity about the Chinese people going to the world. At the same time, there is also a saying that whoever opens the Chinese market will be the first to get rid of the economic stagflation crisis.

The inspection team, from management departments to scientific research units, from design departments to production workshops, was so surprising! Most of these places were well organized and uncluttered. The factories were so neat and standardized. In the huge workshop, there were only a few gentlemen and ladies operating computers and controlling various production procedures, and brand new finished products came out continuously. Computers replaced the human brain, automation replaced the "human sea tactics", and robots created material wealth for humans at high speed. In this dazzling international market, almost all the goods from major countries in the world are available, and Chinese goods are also available, but most of them are placed in the cheapest counters. How can this not make the Chinese people who witnessed this feel ashamed!

The Western European countries left a profound impression on the inspection team. The economic achievements and management experience of capitalist countries are worth learning from. West Germany advocates credibility, pays attention to efficient and high-quality production; France emphasizes art; Sweden is quiet and rich; Denmark is active and prosperous; Finland has the characteristics of the East and West... Different countries, different customs, follow different economic and cultural life, and shape different qualities and personalities. What you see and hear is the high efficiency and speed brought by modern science and technology and strict management.

This economic inspection activity, from February 3 to February 12, visited five Western European countries, and conducted investigations and discussions along the way, broadened their horizons and gave the members of the inspection team a lot of insights! It has to be said that these officials are really more intuitive and stronger about the urgency of building the province.

Lin Johnson knew that the first foreign loan from my country's reform and opening up was introduced by Gu Mu from Japan. It was probably in September 1979 that Gu Mu introduced 50 billion yen from Japan, equivalent to 500 million US dollars. He applied for a low-interest loan from Japan. The loan project was a railway for transporting coal, and coal was sold to Japan.

At that time, Mr. Deng said that the introduction of this matter should be done anyway, and the important thing is to gain time. You can borrow some money and pay some interest. It doesn’t matter. It will be profitable after one or two years of production. Make a big decision and don’t be afraid of debts.

In July 1979, the "Sino-Foreign Joint Venture Enterprise Law of the People's Republic of China" was promulgated and implemented under the auspices of Gu Mu's initiative, and foreign investors invested in and established enterprises in mainland China from then on.

At the beginning, six joint venture projects were approved nationwide, including restaurants, pig farms, photo studios and other small projects. The investment amount was only 8.1 million US dollars, but it is the seed of sparks that will burn in the future.

Lin Johnson lowered his head and thought, if Lyon and his group discussed cooperation in Province H, would they attract any big shots to inspect? He was excited to think that if this cooperation was completed, it would be the first joint venture project between New China and foreign countries!

Unconsciously, he can create a first place, which makes Lin Johnson excited and frightened when he thinks about it, and happiness and fear coexist. This is Lin Johnson’s current psychological real state.

The pioneer is always accompanied by opportunities and setbacks!

Thinking of this, Lin Johnson carefully said to his father: "Dad, if the foreign party comes to discuss cooperation with our factory, you will agree to it almost the conditions!"
Chapter completed!
