Development of productivity started in 1981

Chapter 113 Sihai Fishery is established (asking for monthly ticket)

After arriving at the language school, Wang Jiankun asked the security personnel to notify Pan Hua, but the security personnel had obviously been told that Wang Jiankun was coming, so after he gave his name, he opened the door and led Wang Jiankun to Pan Hua's office.

"Hello, Boss Wang. Thank you for coming so far. I should have come to your place for the interview." Pan Hua said apologetically.

"It's okay. I just happened to come and see this school. After all, I haven't been here for a long time."

"Boss, how about I take you to see that some of the additional training courses you proposed before have been arranged."

"Okay. Let's go check it out first."

Pan Hua first took him to see a driving training. It is relatively difficult to get a driver's license here, and being able to drive is also a very good skill.

Therefore, there are quite a lot of people participating in driving training, more than 30 in total. According to Pan Hua, after taking the test and getting a driver's license, most of them are willing to join Xingyao Transport Company as drivers. Currently, more than 40 drivers with a license have been trained, and 12 of them have truck driver's licenses.

Wang Jiankun was very satisfied after watching the driving training. With so many drivers, the transport company's trucks and cars will be driven by people. The drivers hired from outside before were particularly dishonest, and the practice of false reporting was rampant.

Next we came to the construction training site, where we saw hundreds of people learning how to plaster under the guidance of a master craftsman.

"Boss, most of these people from the mainland have average education, so many of them have signed up for construction training. As long as they work hard, they can learn this job quickly. Most of the people who graduate from the training here will go to the market to find work, and some with outstanding skills have been recruited by our own construction companies as formal employees and are currently working on many construction sites."

"Oh? We have a construction company now?"

"Yes, General Cen established a construction company a few years ago. Some of our buildings were built by our own construction company, and then we slowly developed. However, we did not ask the school to provide special training before. We recruited some strong Chinese immigrants to learn while working on the construction site. The good ones were kept, and the bad ones were sent away or arranged to do other jobs."

"I see. There is a really good construction company. Xingyao Machinery Company and Xingyao Semiconductor are about to start building and renovating factories. Xingzhou Group is also going to start building factories. Have they told you about this?"

"No, I am currently mainly responsible for the initial recruitment and training of personnel. The construction company has a person in charge, and the transportation company and some other companies also have persons in charge. I will call and ask later. If there is no one, I will ask them to contact President Huang and President Zheng themselves and try to let their construction company take over the project."

"That's right. Our own companies must work together in solidarity. Of course, the financial accounting is still independent, and the relevant services are charged at market prices. General Cen and I will not take sides."

"Okay, I know. Let's go check out other training courses!" Then he took Wang Jiankun to a three-story building.

Each classroom here is about 60 square meters. Wang Jiankun looked at them one by one and found that there were training rooms for beauty and hairdressing, training rooms for chefs, training rooms for welders, training rooms for electricians, etc. There were 12 classrooms in total, corresponding to 12 types of training contents.

According to Pan Hua, there are currently more than 60 faculty and staff and more than 800 students in this training school. The graduation time varies depending on the training content. More than 400 students have graduated so far.

Most of these people are Chinese who have recently arrived in Hong Kong, and a small number are descendants of Chinese who have settled here for a long time. The ages of the trainees range from 16 to 40 years old. No one over 40 will be accepted. After all, there is no point in further training, and the older they are, the slower the training will be.

After watching the school's training courses and on-site activities, Wang Jiankun was very impressed with Pan Hua's management ability. He was able to expand the previous language training school to its current scale in such a short period of time, which showed that he was very capable.

After arriving at the office, Wang Jiankun spoke first

"President Pan, I proposed to General Cen that you be the president of Sihai Group because I consider your strong management ability. In the future, Sihai Group will be involved in a lot of businesses, so you have to recruit and train more reliable business leaders!"

"Thank you for your trust, Boss Wang. I will work hard to develop and expand Sihai Group."

"Are there any people in the current training schools who know how to go fishing and have worked on ocean-going cargo ships, preferably as captains or first mates?"

"There are many people who know how to go fishing at sea. They are all from Fujian and Guangdong Province. I'll look through the student book. Please wait a moment." He then looked through the file rack behind him.

After a while, he replied to Wang Jiankun: "Boss Wang, there are currently 26 people who are trained here to know how to go fishing. Their ages range from 16 to 35. Most of them are here to participate in construction training. Because their education level is very low, they can only recognize a few hundred words."

"It's okay if you have a low level of education. Go and ask them if they are willing to join Sihai Fishery Company. You will mainly be the captain of a fishing boat and be responsible for fishing in Zhoushan Fishery Grounds. Later, you may switch to a larger boat to go deep-sea fishing or join an ocean shipping company."

"Okay, boss. I'll call the person in charge of academic affairs and ask them to gather these students together. I'll go talk to them."

"That's fine. Is there anyone who has worked as a manager on an ocean-going ship?"

"Boss, there are no such people. There are no such people, not even those who have worked as ship workers on ocean-going ships. Maybe this kind of people are also scarce in China, so I haven't heard of such people coming."

"Well, go and gather these people together and offer better terms. Ask them what they want, for example, whether they want to be paid monthly or receive dividends based on fishing efficiency. The salary is 150 RMB per month in mainland China, and the dividends are 5% of the fishing boat's earnings."

"Wouldn't a 5% dividend be too much? A boat should earn around 5 a month, right?"

"Almost the same, but if they are paid in dividends, their enthusiasm will be higher and their loyalty will be higher in the future. Otherwise, those who are paid will most likely go out on their own after earning a certain amount of money."

"Okay, I'll go talk to them. Boss, please wait here."

"Okay, go ahead. I'll go to the meeting room next door to take a break."

About an hour later, Pan Hua came to the conference room with eight young men with dark and rough skin.

"Boss Wang, these are the eight people who are willing to go to Zhoushan Fishery to fish. They have all worked on fishing boats of the Fishery Brigade before. The youngest has worked there for more than three years, while the oldest has worked there for more than ten years. They all have a lot of experience."

"Okay, hello everyone, I'm Wang Jiankun. Sihai Fisheries is now looking to recruit a group of captains. The boats are all 25-meter steel-hulled fishing boats. Those of you who have been fishing boat drivers, please raise your hands."

Four of the people raised their hands. After Wang Jiankun asked them some questions, he decided to let them be the captain. The remaining four who had never driven a fishing boat would serve as assistants first, learning how to drive while helping to work on the fishing boat.

After listening to Wang Jiankun's arrangement, several people had no objection. Then Wang Jiankun chatted with the eight boatmen from Sihai Fishery, asking them about their hometown, why they came to Hong Kong from their hometown, who were there in their hometown, etc.

These eight people are all from Fujian, speak Minnan dialect, and only know a little Mandarin and simple Cantonese. They learned Mandarin and Cantonese after coming to this training school.

The oldest of these people is 32 years old. He has been working on the fishing team's boat since he was 16 years old. However, after so many years, his family is still in financial difficulty. After the reform and opening up, he wanted to contract or rent a boat from the fishing team. Unfortunately, his family has no money or power, and there are few people. The team will not rent a boat to him, and he can't make any money doing odd jobs on the beach. So he found an opportunity to come here and prepare to make a lot of money before going back.

The youngest is only 19 years old. He has been fishing on a boat with his family for three years. A few years ago, someone in their village went to Japan illegally and sent back a lot of money, so his family also wanted him to go out, so they collected some money and found someone to illegally go to Japan. Unexpectedly, when he was about to change boats near Hong Kong Island, he was found by a coast guard ship. He fell into the sea in a panic. Fortunately, he was lucky enough to swim to Hong Kong Island, and then begged for a while. Then he met a fellow villager at a construction site, who introduced him to this training school.

The other people had similar experiences. They had been fishermen for many years but did not make much money. They also had no ways to rent or buy a boat, so they thought about coming to Hong Kong Island to make money.

After listening to their stories, Wang Jiankun learned a lot about the living conditions in coastal areas.

Currently, there are relatively few boats engaged in legitimate fishing along the coast of Fujian and Guangdong, and most of the boats are engaged in smuggling, so the fishing boats have all been taken over by those who have savings and power.

Fishing is not very profitable at present, because after the fishing boats are contracted or rented to individuals, the caught fish can only be sold to processing plants or fishmongers who sell fresh fish to the docks. But now there are too many fish, and the transportation and processing capabilities cannot keep up. The consumption of fresh fish at the seaside is also low, so it is difficult for fishermen to make money.

Moreover, the weather forecast is very poor nowadays. Many fishing boats capsize every year, which creates a huge risk. So even though we are close to the sea and have rich marine resources, we cannot earn much money.

Wang Jiankun decided to change the status quo, starting with these eight fishermen.

He took out the prepared blueprint of a 25-meter-long fishing boat and explained to these people the structure of the boat, various matters related to driving, and the functions and uses of various machines and equipment.

The fishermen felt like they were in a dream. They had not expected that they were about to drive such an advanced fishing boat, which was not only equipped with a radio, but also a magnetic compass positioning, electronic nautical charts, automatic steering, and a weather forecaster. The most unimaginable thing was that it had a sonar detector that could identify the species of fish.

Because they all chose to receive a 5% dividend after getting on board, they were very excited to hear that they were going to catch fish on such an advanced fishing boat.

They originally planned to drive a 16-meter-long iron-clad wooden fishing boat with no auxiliary equipment, and work day and night so that they could earn more every month.

Now we realize that if we drive such an advanced fishing boat, the fishing efficiency is definitely several times that of the previous 16-meter small fishing boat.

Wang Jiankun went on to talk about the fishing matters in Zhoushan fishing grounds in the future, such as fishing boats mainly catching high-value fish, and then there will be a fresh-catch boat to take away their catch tomorrow. The price is calculated according to the average market price, and they do not have to run back and forth to the dock to sell the goods.

After hearing this, the eight people wanted to get on the boat and go fishing immediately, because the conditions were so good. Then they could just fish at sea without worrying about selling the fish. Moreover, they were catching high-value fish species of the season, so the profits would definitely be considerable.

They couldn't help but feel fortunate that they responded positively when Principal Pan went to recruit just now, otherwise it would be a pity to miss such a good opportunity to turn things around.

Then Wang Jiankun told them that he would go to a dock early the next morning and take them on board to learn how to drive this fishing boat. They would only have one day to familiarize themselves with the boat, and then he would select a fleet captain and take the other seven people to sail to Jinshan Dock in Shanghai.

They will follow Captain Zheng there for a period of time to familiarize themselves with the local waters, and at the same time gradually receive fishing boats and dispatched boatmen to form a fishing fleet.

After leaving the training school, Wang Jiankun drove to a scrap recycling station in Tuen Mun, found the person in charge and bought a lot of scrap. Of course, the routine was the same as when he bought scrap in Raozhou, enriching the elements he needed into some structural parts.

After buying the scrap, I asked the boss to help ship the goods to a sparsely populated seaside warehouse in Tuen Mun.

That night, Wang Jiankun combined elements from the waste with some elements from the nearby mountains to manufacture 10 sets of finished mobile base stations, 2 text message machines, 100 sets of circuit boards, electronic components, casings and other parts, and 2000 sets of text message machine parts.

The finished products will be used to build a SMS communication demonstration zone in advance, the parts will be used for assembly line debugging and production in OEM factories, and the assembled finished products will be used for subsequent base station installation and sales.

Of course, Wang Jiankun also manufactured the equipment for the central computer room. Since only one set was needed in Hong Kong, he just used his super powers to manufacture it.

The central computer room can control each base station and indirectly control the text machines sold.

At present, the charging model of text machines is still based on that of pagers. There is a monthly rent, and then a certain fee will be charged for each text message sent. Wang Jiankun did not take care of the specific charging standards and let Zheng Tianming be responsible for it.

After the base stations, text message machines and equipment in the central computer room were manufactured, they were placed in a rented warehouse. Then Wang Jiankun called Zheng Tianming and asked him to send someone to receive them early the next morning.

Then he used some of the elements he bought and some elements extracted from the seabed to make a 25-meter-long fishing boat. The style was the same as the one he explained to the eight newly recruited captains of Sihai Fisheries during the day. The hull number Wang Jiankun put on it was S-8-25.

This fishing boat has been tested at sea before, and its performance is definitely the best in the country, and it is the most economical for near-shore fishing.

After it was made, Wang Jiankun went to a nearby hotel and booked a room to rest.

The next morning, he met the eight people from yesterday at the pier in Tuen Mun and took them onto the S-8 fishing boat.

The Pearl River Estuary is not far out to sea from Tuen Mun Pier, and the fish resources here are also very abundant. Wang Jiankun asked four people who knew how to drive a boat to take turns learning how to drive. He also explained to them how to use the equipment on the boat and let them try it out one by one.

During the test, Wang Jiankun led them to catch 7 or 8 fish with the nets, and the fish they caught were sold for more than 2800 Hong Kong dollars in the Hong Kong fish market. Eight crew members participated in the fishing and selling process. Seeing that they made so much money in less than a day of fishing, they were more optimistic about the future.

The captain of the fleet selected was Ye Yaodong, 24 years old, who had been fishing for 6 years. He had a strong self-learning ability and knew thousands of words, so he learned how to use the equipment on the ship faster than others. Wang Jiankun then appointed him as the temporary captain of the fleet.

After having dinner with them at Tuen Mun Pier, Wang Jiankun handed the fishing boat to Ye Yaodong and asked him to drive the fishing boat to Shanghai early the next morning.

They were given ample time, a full 10 days.

During these 10 days, under the leadership of Ye Yaodong, they will learn how to drive the boat and use the equipment on board as quickly as possible. They can also catch some valuable fish and sell them at several major ports along the coast, as well as refuel, add ice and replenish supplies.

Wang Jiankun was not afraid that they would run away with the boat. He told everyone that if they deviated from the planned route by a certain number of kilometers, the boat would be locked and unable to move. Moreover, if they did not reach the Shanghai Jinshan Port within the time limit, the boat would sink.

Wang Jiankun had demonstrated all these functions to them. He believed that as long as they had normal brains, these eight people would not dare to have any bad ideas.

After dealing with them, Wang Jiankun drove back to his apartment in Causeway Bay and had a good night's rest.

Early in the morning of June 6, Wang Jiankun took a taxi to the dock and boarded his Experimental No. 18 which had been anchored for a long time. After leaving the waters of Hong Kong, he used his supernatural powers to transform Experimental No. 2 into a Y-2 seaplane near an uninhabited island.

He planned to fly back to Shanghai, sort out the affairs of Sihai Fisheries Company there, and then return to school to take the final exams.
