Siheyuan starts from a better life

Chapter 706: Making money in foreign exchange

While Jiang Yan and the others were having barbecue in the small courtyard, they were in the outer hall of Sijiu City. But we were so busy that many people who had already returned home from get off work were urgently called back to work overtime.

"What are you talking about? The customer is planning to sign for 50 million US dollars worth of rice cookers and other items. Why, so many?! There may be more next year?" Li Chunyuan, director of the Department of Foreign Trade, was shocked.

During the previous Canton Fair that started in April, Sijiucheng was really missed. In addition to traditional instant noodles, electric fans and other items, the Happy Home Appliances Factory jointly built by the steel rolling mill and XX Research Institute produced happy products in Sijiucheng. A series of brand-name rice cookers, air fryers and other items became a dark horse at the Canton Fair. A total of nearly 2 million contracts were signed at that time. You must know that the country’s annual foreign exchange reserves at that time were less than million US dollars, which is equivalent to Jiang Yan and his factory acquiring more than a quarter of their foreign exchange reserves at once.

This guy surprised everyone. However, after completing the order from the Canton Fair, I originally felt free. I never thought that follow-up orders would come one after another. After a rough calculation in the past few days, it was almost completed. It was almost 100 million, which surprised all of them.

"Yes, Minister, according to the information returned by the embassies, it is like this. And it is more than 50 million US dollars. These small household appliances we produce sell better there, beating similar equipment like foot pot chickens. But I don’t know if we can keep up with the production volume.”

"Okay, I understand. You don't have to worry about this. We will take as many as you have." Li Chunyuan replied.

After a while, the call was hung up. Li Chunyuan turned around and called the office of the leader of the First Machinery Department.

"Jingle Bell"

"Hello, who are you? What do you want?" the big leader said.

"Don't worry! Lao Li, this is the same. When we were building the factory, Comrade Jiang Yan had already put forward the concept of producing one generation, reserve one generation, and research and development one generation. They want to surpass us, don't even think about it. Now we Personnel and experts have been arranged to conduct follow-up research and formally follow this concept. As long as we maintain this advantage, we can continue to make money in foreign exchange," the big leader said excitedly.

"I will tell Comrade Sir this news later, so that he will also be happy." The big leader then said happily.

"Minister Zheng, this is Li Chunyuan from the Department of Foreign Trade. Let me tell you some good news. Since the Canton Fair, our Department of Foreign Trade has received a lot of orders for small home appliances. We have roughly calculated the total amount of orders now. It’s almost 100 million, and it’s estimated that there will be more to follow. You must be ready for production and don’t let anything slip.” Li Chunyuan was very excited when he said this.

"However, our comrades in the embassy have responded that the new rice cooker has been introduced to Tiaobaji. You should pay attention to this, do not let them catch up. It will be quite uncomfortable to lose to them."

"Don't worry, our First Machinery Department will definitely not lose the chain. You can get as much as you want. Our First Machinery Department will do our best to ensure production." The big leader was very excited after hearing the news.

Next, the senior leader asked about some specific situations, and Li Chunyuan answered them one by one. After hearing the general situation, the big leader hung up the phone. However, this man was quite excited. He hummed a Peking Opera alone in the study room. After hearing this, Xiao Li, the secretary outside, knew what the leader's current mood was. It was quite good. After a while, the excited leader first reported it to his minister. After getting the minister's permission, he called his husband directly.

At this time, the husband was still working. When he heard the red phone on his desk ringing, he quickly picked it up.

"Sir, I'm Xiao Zheng, and I have good news for you!" The leader said excitedly after the call was connected. "Xiao Zheng, what's the good news? I have to listen carefully." The gentleman asked curiously.

"Sir, we have received a lot of orders for the small home appliances that became an instant hit in Sijiucheng before. Xiao Li from the Foreign Trade Department called me just now and Li Chunyuan called me. The total order volume now exceeds 100 million. It is estimated that There will be many more orders in the future." Then, the big leader explained the ins and outs of the matter to Mr.

"Okay, okay! Xiao Zheng, this is indeed good news! With this money, we can do a lot of things. You have made great contributions to the First Machinery Department this time. You must be rewarded.

And Jiang Yan, this little guy is pretty good, he can produce such good things. Doing the math, this little guy has created a lot of things, and now he is the main force in our exports. It can be said that this little guy has monopolized a lot. "

"Also, Comrade Jiang Yan is more than that. He designed the high-speed uranium enrichment centrifuge, nuclear protection equipment and computers in our nuclear weapons research and development. If we hadn't known that he studied steel machinery Professional, at that time I wanted to drag him to the Northwest to shine! I think our evaluation of him was a little low. I will give him a good reward later and increase the burden. This little guy is an all-rounder." "Come on. The teacher elaborated on Jiang Yan’s relevant achievements.

"Yes, sir, don't worry. We will study it carefully in our department later. We want to put an extra burden on Comrade Jiang Yan. There are also rewards and other things, but sir, why don't we publish some of his information?"

"And sir, if you need our unconditional support in the Northwest."

"Comrade Jiang Yan's identity must be kept secret, and we must do our best to protect him. He is a rare talent, and we consider that there is no need to drag this little guy Jiang Yan to the Northwest. After all, in the Fourth Ninetowns can also make corresponding contributions. You see, it has not made a big contribution this time." The gentleman said with a smile.

"Sir, last time Jiang Yan proposed the idea of ​​opening small home appliance factories in several cities with ports. I don't know what the superiors thought about it. To be honest, this time we received so many orders at once, our First Machinery Department It's a bit overwhelming here. If we don't build the relevant factories, we will probably waste a little time, but we can still complete the tasks of our superiors on time." The big leader then asked.

"The central government will send several teams down when the time comes, and the personnel will be uniformly deployed by your First Machinery Department to build the factory as soon as possible. However, you still need to listen to Comrade Jiang Yan's opinions."

"Don't worry, sir. I understand." The big leader quickly assured.

"Also, Comrade Jiang Yan proposed sending red patriotic capitalists to Xiangjiang to open factories. This has been approved by superiors. The document will be issued to your First Machinery Department in the near future. You must arrange this matter well for the upcoming Capitalists who go to Xiangjiang must be carefully assessed. After setting up a company in Xiangjiang, everything must be in accordance with the policies there. You must be cautious in selecting comrades who have gone there."

"Don't worry! Sir, we will conduct a serious assessment here."

The order soon spread throughout the entire Forty-Nine City's senior management. Many people didn't sleep that night. The most excited person was undoubtedly Li Huaide. After getting the news from his father-in-law, he was quite excited. You know, they The factory's solar cookers are a big seller.
