1988: Back to the human world for a few years

Chapter 121 Umbrella (1)

Qingfeng Food Factory, Brand Management and Operations Department.

With the explosive popularity of the "Momo Baizha" and "Momo Baichiao" projects, this emerging department, which already had a large number of staff, continued to expand, and even incorporated an unused factory building and transformed it into a comprehensive office area.

It turns out that the Quality Control Department didn't set up such a large office area for show;
At the very least, after the Dragon Boat Festival, when Mo Mo Bai Zha officially opened its franchise rights to the public, the "prospective franchisees" who heard the news immediately filled the quality control department responsible for reviewing franchise qualifications.

………………

"What the hell, what kind of world is this! Even though I come here with money in my hands, I still have to sit there like a grandson and wait to be summoned... The officials in the old society weren't so rude!"

Seeing more and more people waiting for their numbers to be called, a middle-aged man wearing a Dacron short-sleeved shirt and black-framed glasses glanced at the card with the number "79" written on it in his hand, fanned himself vigorously, and muttered in dissatisfaction.

A burly man was wiping his sweat with a handkerchief. He tilted his head and looked at him: "Are you from out of town?"

The middle-aged man looked at the man warily, and after taking a look at his iron tower-like figure, he hesitated and said, "Yes, I came from Tianjin."

Hearing the other party's slightly strange pronunciation, the man looked at him suspiciously: "Brother, your accent... doesn't sound like a Tianjin person."

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "I'm from Guangzhou. I've been doing business in Tianjin for the past few years. I've been traveling back and forth between the two places, so my accent hasn't changed in a short time."

The man smiled knowingly: "No wonder."

Having said that, he actually shut his mouth and continued to wipe the sweat off his face… Although several floor fans were urgently brought in to the comprehensive office area of ​​the quality control department, there were hundreds of people crowded in there on a hot day. Even if the fans were turned to the highest speed, it was still no different from a steamer.

Seeing that the man was not willing to pay attention to him, the middle-aged man did not find it strange. After all, he had traveled between the north and the south for so many years, and he naturally knew that the people in the north had a strange rejection of them.

Although he was not interested in establishing any friendship with this iron tower-like man, the other party's "no wonder" with a hint of contempt instantly attracted his attention.

As a seasoned man, the middle-aged man took out a Camel from his pocket without saying anything and handed it over: "Brother, I've been busy over there recently. I heard that Momo Baizha is recruiting franchisees, so I rushed over to join in the fun. I was so excited that I blurted out... What, is there another story behind this?"

The man looked at the short-nosed camel handed to him by the other party with some astonishment.

Oh, it’s foreign cigarettes, that’s good!
After thinking about it, he took the camel that only existed in legends for him, put it to the tip of his nose and sniffed the slightly strong fragrance, then explained: "It turns out that brother has been in the south for a while, no wonder he didn't know the situation."

As he said that, he lit up the Camel, and after feeling the taste of the foreign cigarette with some discomfort, he thought for a moment, "Brother, since you have been in the south for some time, you should have heard about the Jiangnan Yixing Cable Factory, right?"

Yixing Cable Factory?
The middle-aged man's expression changed slightly and he nodded slowly.

Just a few days ago, Director Jiang of the Jiangnan Yixing Cable Factory handed over his factory, in which he had invested 180 million yuan, to the collective, making it a "red hat"; although this matter was not widely reported, he still knew about it.

If it were just that, it would not be a big deal. After all, in the past year, countless private companies have been looking for a way out, and this kind of handover to the public is not uncommon.

But the problem is... now there is a rumor that the famous "Nian Guazi" is being targeted again, and they are preparing to check his accounts - you know, Nian Guazi is not like others, even he is being targeted, and combined with the Jiangnan Yixing Cable Factory's handover behavior, even a fool would smell a strong smell.

In fact, this was one of the important reasons why he had come all the way here on such a hot day;

Everyone knows the nature of Nian Guazi's factory in the suburbs of Wuhu. Since he can't escape this, the only one that can protect him is his "own enterprise" - many things are very different before and after the tax-sharing reform in 94. Before this dividing line, the weight of state-owned enterprises in the cabinet, especially those involved in the fields of energy, military industry, and foreign trade, is naturally different.

However, even if the Mo Mo Bai Zha project involved state-owned enterprises in the oil system, the main body of this project, Qingfeng Food, was ultimately just an affiliated company. He had no idea how much effect becoming their franchisee would have.
To be honest, the current situation is not optimistic, and he has no channels to curry favor with other influential state-owned enterprises, so he comes here to give it a try with the attitude of giving it a try... Even if he is really unlucky, at least he still has hope of leaving some capital for a comeback, right?

Seeing the middle-aged man's expression, the iron tower man sighed: "I heard that it's not just Director Jiang in Jiangnan. I heard that Taizhou Beijihua Refrigerator Factory also wants to be handed over to the state... In fact, it's not just Jiangnan, other places are also full of thunder... Take your area for example, Wanbao Electric, Shenzhen Jinhai Organic Glass, Foshan Zhongbaode Nonferrous Metals, etc., etc., you should be aware of their situation, right?"

"Even our Qilu... Lanling Shenquanzhuang, the famous private white porcelain factory run by Director Wang, have you heard of it?"

The middle-aged man nodded when he heard this. Jingdezhen, Foshan and Dapu in Guangdong, Qilu and Hebei are all important production bases of ceramics in China, so of course he has heard of the name of Shenquanzhuang White Porcelain Factory.

The man took a deep puff of his cigarette and said, "I heard that Director Wang is also thinking about turning the factory over to the state like Director Jiang in Jiangnan did!"

The middle-aged man's expression was even more gloomy. They were all from the 84th faction, so he certainly knew that the so-called "handing it over to the public" and "wearing a red hat" were not as simple as they seemed in the literal sense... In fact, you only need to learn about those very famous red hat companies in later generations to get a glimpse of it.

Although this approach can easily avoid the limelight, the reason why most 84 schools do not choose this method is actually because this method of operation has huge risks and uncertainties;
Although later factory managers Wang and Jiang regained control of their original enterprises and led their fellow villagers towards common prosperity, making the village a well-known wealthy village in the local area, more private enterprise bosses could only leave their hometown in disgrace after handing over their businesses to the state.

Here, read carefully.

"I took back the business thanks to my strong influence in the village."

"Leading the villagers towards common prosperity and becoming a well-known wealthy village in the local area"

Just based on these two sentences, you will know what conditions and costs are needed to regain the business after the limelight has passed.

Objectively speaking, 90% of private business owners in the country do not have such mass base and business capabilities. People like Director Wang and Director Jiang will always be exceptions!
Besides, you can’t look at the present from the perspective of a future generation. In this age where everything is full of unknowns and fog, who knows what the future will be like!

………………

The middle-aged man was worried by this series of bad news. Seeing that the man did not look very anxious, he suddenly reacted: "Brother, since you know so much about what happened recently, then...?"

The man laughed: "Brother, you mean, why don't I look so anxious now?"

The middle-aged man nodded, his eyes full of curiosity and...

Faint expectation.
