Hong Yanwu’s words are indeed thought-provoking.
When it came to an end, not only Zhaoqing listened with rapt attention, Secretary An nodded seriously and frequently, Hong Lucheng and Yuntai also fell into deep thought.
As a result, no one spoke for a long time. Finally, Hong Yanwen spoke up and took the lead in expressing support.
"Secretary An, uncle, even though the third child is young, I think what he said makes sense. At least it is more practical and profound than what I, a person who specializes in holding documents, see. In fact, we have to follow his From this point of view, there is really no need to worry too much, because village-run enterprises can achieve common prosperity, which is more in line with the spirit of our reform and opening up than establishing a few professional households, and there is no doubt that this is a good way to completely solve practical problems. . Since this opportunity cannot be missed, it will never come back again. It’s worth a try.”
When he said this, Secretary An, who was already tempted, naturally became more determined.
"His second nephew, you, a college student who is an official, think so too, then I feel more relieved. How about we try this method?"
But Zhaoqing still thought more carefully. Although he was very eager, he couldn't help but ask.
"But... you have to have projects, funds, and technology to run a factory? We farmers..."
Well, when it comes to specific practical issues, Hong Yanwen gets stuck.
Because he, an armchair scholar, couldn't tell what to do.
Fortunately, Hong Yanwu took over the words without waiting for him to be embarrassed.
"Cousin, don't worry. To tell you the truth, I've already thought about what to do. But I have a condition. An Shu remembers to promise to let you take the lead. I can't take advantage of others when doing good things... ”
After saying this, everyone in the room laughed.
Secretary An hurriedly patted his chest, "His third nephew, Zhaoqing, is my son-in-law. No one thinks of him for good things, so I won't do it. Don't worry about this. If you really have a good idea, just speak it out. Our whole village Everyone will be grateful to you..."
At this point, the atmosphere is even better,
Unfortunately, before Hong Yanwu could say what he said next, the boss, who always disagreed with him, blocked him out of habit again this time.
"Wait a minute, don't worry, Third Brother, you are so rough. The more I think about it, the more uneasy I am. Even if what you say makes sense, most of it is based on speculation. How can you guarantee the policy? Just don’t worry about ten thousand. If something goes wrong in the future, what will Secretary An do? Isn’t it all your fault?”
As soon as this statement came out, he also received support from Hong Lucheng.
"Third brother, your eldest brother is speaking with caution. I remember the 1950s, when the policy said that it would remain unchanged for thirty years, but what happened next? Suddenly there was a public-private partnership. Why did I advocate waiting? Look, that’s what I’m afraid of. In short, you must work towards the best, but you must also consider the worst outcome.”
As a result, Secretary An and Yuntai couldn't help but hesitate again.
What Hong Lucheng said is true, and there are too many similar situations. People of their age have gone through it, so how can they not worry about it?
Otherwise, Secretary An’s “big contract work” would not have been delayed until the end.
But these elders didn't expect that Hong Yanwu didn't care about this one.
I saw him raise his eyebrows and start playing dialectics.
"Yes, it is true that doing this requires taking some risks. But let's not forget that everything is inherently two-sided. The great leader taught us that we should first grasp the main contradiction and then the secondary contradiction. How can we imagine it? If one thing is the same, you have to give up the other thing first. Is there any good thing in the world that is 100% comprehensive? If there is no risk at all, everyone can see it, and then everyone will do it. If you are doing it, how can it be considered a good thing? Isn’t that what happens with eggs..."
He was about to continue dragging him, but he might as well get a scolding from his mother.
"Stop being such a mouthful, who are you talking about?"
Well, this guy just laughed at me and he didn't dare to show off anymore.
"Hey, what I mean is that there are risks here, but the probability is really low. In addition, even if the worst case scenario does occur, I am confident that I can accurately judge the direction of the wind."
"Why are you so confused? Our village-run enterprises are by nature a large collective. We are not at the bottom. Is there a private economy below? Professional households and self-employed households are our pillars!"
"So if the policy changes, why don't we just stare at them? If we really want to change, we have to deal with professional and self-employed people first. If one day it is said that professional and self-employed people are no longer allowed to work, then I will be the first one. We support our village to close down businesses and hand over all profits to the state.”
Hey, don’t say it, that’s really what happened. If you do it this way, you can indeed see it clearly.
At this moment, everyone felt enlightened.
Not only Hong Yanzheng was speechless. Even Hong Lucheng admitted, "Yes, yes, the business of a large group is indeed different from the business of our old shop. I was wrong. It seems feasible."
Yuntai and Secretary An looked at each other and nodded. Zhaoqing became even more excited and urged Hong Yanwu to express his idea quickly.
It is really annoying to say that the people in the room have finally reached a unified opinion, and Hong Yanwu himself poured cold water on everyone again.
He then went so far as to say that the situation in Longkou Village was not suitable for industry.
His reasons are that, first, Longkou Village is remote and in the mountains with poor roads, so it is inconvenient to use industrial vehicles to import raw materials in batches and transport goods out of the country.
Secondly, any industrial factory must purchase machinery and equipment, and the same applies to small hardware factories and small cement factories, so the start-up capital must be at least tens of thousands of yuan, which is too costly.
Thirdly, collective enterprises are not necessarily safer than the private economy. This mainly depends on the business content and development scale. If it competes with state-owned factories for resources and customers, it may be the first to be unlucky.
Fourthly, engaging in industry also destroys feng shui and damages the environment. Industrial production is inseparable from pollution. The more products you produce, the more toxic waste you create, which can make people sick.
This made everyone speechless again.
Secretary An couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly.
"His third nephew, you really have a good mouth. Old man, I have seen it today. What is black can be said to be white, and what is dead can be said to be alive. But...but I am confused, then you two That’s right, isn’t it contradictory? Should we set up a factory or not?”
On the other hand, Zhaoqing was able to keep his composure, and after hearing that Hong Yan had Wu's intentions, he quickly persuaded Secretary An to feel at ease. Since Hong Yanwu thought so comprehensively, there must be a better way. He won't make fun of everyone.
Hong Yanwu couldn't help but laugh again. "My parents are the ones who gave birth to me, and my cousin is the one who knows me. It's not a bad idea for me to come up with a good project for you."
And he followed up and revealed the rest of his words. He said that he actually meant to run a handicraft factory.
His idea is that if he can make small things that do not require any raw materials or production equipment and rely solely on craftsmanship and local materials, then the transportation and financial problems can be easily solved.
If we do not engage in industry but engage in handicrafts, there will be no pollution, and there will be absolutely no competition between the products produced and state-owned factories.
But his answer failed to achieve the expected results, and everyone couldn't help but look at each other with doubts in their hearts.
Zhaoqing frowned this time and was the first to ask.
"Handicrafts? Is there any handicraft factory in the capital? Beijing embroidery, bone carving, wood carving, ivory, jade, lacquerware? Porcelain? Enamel or gold wire inlay? Those are all extremely precise craftsmanship and need to be learned. It’s not a short-term thing, we can’t do anything, aren’t you kidding?”
However, Hong Yanwu did not change at all, his attitude remained as calm as before.
"Cousin, you are thinking too much. There is no need to be so fancy. Besides, they really don't produce the things I want you to make. Just by chance, Hong Jun has a few gadgets. I'll get them. Let me show you and you will understand.”
In less than two minutes, Hong Yanwu came back from his eldest brother's room with a few things. Everyone was even more confused.
What did he get?
One is an "auspicious knot" made of red velvet rope with long tassels.
One is a grasshopper and a grass mantis made from grass leaves and tied into a string.
Both of these are created by Hong Yanru.
There is also a windmill and a palace lantern made of red painted wooden strips, which were made by Hong Yanzheng.
To put it bluntly, it is a homemade toy for children to play with. It is true that the handicraft factories in Beijing do not produce.
"This...this...is easy to make, but can it be sold for money?" Zhaoqing really couldn't believe it.
Of course Hong Yanwu has his reasons.
"Can it be sold for money? Who do you sell it to for the score? These things are just like crickets, goldfish and birds. If you find the wrong owner, no one will want a cent or two. If you find the right owner, then That’s easy to say.”
"We don't produce these things to sell to the common people. I mean to sell them to foreign devils to make money from them. Let me tell you clearly, there are more and more foreigners in the capital now. When people come, they think Buy some souvenirs to take back. Not everyone appreciates elegant things, and not everyone is willing to sell them expensively. Aren’t these interesting and ethnic things just right?”
Hey, another enlightenment.
Although Secretary An has not completely turned the corner, Yuntai and his son are already bright-eyed and their faces are shining.
Yuntai praised him repeatedly.
"Xiao Wu is right. During the Republic of China, most of the Westerners I met liked these. It must not be difficult to sell them to them. It's just that these things you have are a bit rough, and foreigners still like delicate things. ."
"This "auspicious knot" and grasshoppers can be hung on the windmill. In addition, you can also make purses and kites. The style of this palace lantern is also wrong, it is too childish. I am familiar with the style of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and want to change it. It’s better than this.”
Hong Yanwu was also happy.
"What my uncle said is that you are an expert, which is a major advantage for us. In addition, I am also thinking about another major advantage of Longkou Village. I remember Secretary An said that our village guards the mountains and Jinling. , weren’t there a lot of stonemasons in the past? Let’s use stones to make small stone sculptures, such as small flower pots with brick carving patterns, candlesticks with a fat boy riding on the door pillars, ashtrays with the appearance of the Great Wall, and miniature stone lions. , it doesn’t need to be too big, a large square seal is enough, what do you think..."
Zhaoqing also agreed at this time and said excitedly.
"Yes, yes, these are great ideas of yours. The things you want to make in this way are cheap and interesting. The key is to do this. If no one thinks like this now, if we do it like this, then no one will compete with us. . You are still very discerning. But, to deal with foreigners, do we still have to send people to live in the capital? And the language is not clear, we farmers..."
Hong Yanwu spent a long time, but he was just waiting for this sentence. I smiled in my heart and immediately took care of everything.
"Oh, cousin, are you worried about sales? You just take care of production. I will find someone to sell things. Just like selling eggs on behalf of others in the past, we will set a price. As long as the quality of the things is decent, I will ship them over. Just give you money, okay?”
Well, now even Secretary An completely understands it. It is really a good thing that can make a profit without losing any money.
He slapped his thigh. "His third nephew, you have arranged so well for us. I don't know how to thank you. Once this is done, you will be our benefactor in Longkou Village. As long as you make some money, you have the final say on the price. When will you I will treat you as a distinguished guest sometime..."
