Development of productivity started in 1981

Chapter 151 Untitled
Since the division into arts and science classes was completed at the beginning of the second year of high school, Wang Jiankun's deskmate Yu Zirun was no longer in the same class with him.

He sat in the classroom he had not seen for a long time, listening to the English teacher on the stage explaining the English cloze test questions in fluent spoken English.

He could tell that Teacher Liu had put in a lot of hard work. When she entered the first year of high school, she spent most of her English class in the lunch break. Now she can teach the entire class in English, which is a huge improvement.

Wang Jiankun observed the listening status of the students in the class and found that about one-fifth of them could hardly understand. Moreover, these people were unfamiliar faces. They were not classmates from the previous freshman class. They should have been added from other classes after the division of arts and sciences.

The students who were taught by Teacher Liu in the first year of high school have almost made progress together with Teacher Liu, so they can keep up with the teacher's lecture pace and understand most of what he says.

It has been nearly a year since we donated the radio equipment to the school. Most of these students who still cannot understand have no chance of going to university. Now, to enter university, you have to take a joint examination first. Only the top 1% of the students in No. 50 Middle School can take the college entrance examination.

This is determined based on the university admission ratio of each school in each region in the past two years. In the first two years, nearly 25% of the students in No. 1 Middle School were able to get into university, so according to the ratio magnified by 50, the top % of students in the final examination next year will be able to take the college entrance examination.

This policy did not exist in the first two years. Anyone who wanted to take the exam could sign up. However, there were too many candidates taking the exam in 80, including a large number of repeaters. So starting in 81, there was a policy of joint examinations to eliminate those who had no hope of passing, thereby reducing the number of candidates and saving exam resources.

Wang Jiankun became distracted as he was thinking until the voice of Teacher Liu rang in his ears.

"Wang Jiankun, get out of class is over, what are you thinking about?"

"Ah! Teacher Liu, it's nothing, I was just fascinated by what I was listening to." Wang Jiankun kept talking nonsense.

After more than a year of experience, his ability to respond has become much stronger than before.

"Nonsense, you're obviously thinking about something. I didn't even notice you when I came to you. Let's go to the office and chat. I haven't seen you for a long time." Liu Xiaoting invited him to the office.

Teacher Liu is 165cm tall. Wang Jiankun walked behind her and looked at her pretty face from the side.

"Jiankun, come and have a cup of tea."

After Wang Jiankun sat down, Teacher Liu picked up an enamel cup from the cabinet next to him and made him a cup of jasmine tea.

"Thank you, teacher. This jasmine tea smells so good!"

"Fragrant, right? I picked them myself and put them on the windowsill to dry."

"Teacher, you speak English fluently in class. Can you be selected as an outstanding teacher next year?"

"Not necessarily. I haven't taught a graduating class yet, and I don't have the college entrance examination scores to refer to. I may not be selected next year."

"You also need college entrance examination scores?"

"Of course. It's not enough to just speak English fluently. The college entrance examination scores of students account for a large proportion. After all, the quality of an excellent teacher is mainly determined by teaching results."

"Then it will definitely be possible the year after next. By the way, teacher, the new students in the class don't seem to understand much in class!"

"Yes, several months have passed, and they still only half understand what I say. However, the 30-odd students in my original class have already adapted to my teaching in English. I can't change it back just to accommodate them. Not only will they not make much progress, but it will also delay the progress of those with good English grades."

"That's true. Right now our college entrance examination is still mainly for selecting talents. If they want to make progress, they can only rely on their own efforts for the time being."

"Yes, the college admission rate is quite low nowadays. Our school is still good. Now we have the financial support from your uncle and uncle, so the educational resources are much better than in previous years."

"That also requires our teachers to be willing to improve. Otherwise, it would be useless if we bought materials and equipment but had no teachers to teach them to the students. Thank you for your hard work, teacher. Cheers to you."

It turned out that since donating the broadcasting equipment, Wang Jiankun asked his uncle and Pan Hua in Hong Kong to send some new teaching materials from Guangzhou to No. 2 Middle School every month.

These materials are newly published by publishing houses and educational institutions in Guangzhou based on the college entrance examination results in previous years and the current updates of knowledge points.

After being sent to the school, teachers of various subjects in the teaching and research group will first study it collectively, and then update it in combination with the teaching progress and teach it to the students.

In addition, many good teaching methods have also been spread over, which are some lecture outlines and teaching experiences of excellent teachers there.

So starting from this class, Wang Jiankun believes that the proportion of students admitted to universities will increase greatly, and he will have more talents to choose from in the future.

Most people may enter the system after being admitted to university and may not be directly recruited by Wang Jiankun’s company. However, as time goes by, these classmates will probably provide more and more help to him.

After chatting with his English teacher about education and some changes in the school, he returned to the classroom to continue his other classes.

The next three days were monthly exams. Wang Jiankun took the exams during the day, and in the evening he and Lang Junjian began to instruct the first batch of students in the microcomputer training class on software project development.

The project that Wang Jiankun brought out is a part of the CAD drawing software. The overall software framework has been built, and now some functions need to be written one by one.

Lang Junjian will be the overall person in charge. The programs written by several team members tomorrow will be submitted to the switchboard via the local area network, and then Lang Junjian will check and integrate them.

Of course, there were also people responsible for testing. Wang Jiankun assigned this task to Fang Guihua, Hu Chunming and Cheng Ming.

Because they will be the first users of this CAD drawing software, it is the best arrangement for them to find bugs.

According to Wang Jiankun, there are already companies in the United States that are making drawing software, but it seems that they are only 2D graphic design software, and there are no 3D ones yet. Perhaps some laboratories are already researching it, but no company has yet developed it.

After all, the computer hardware functions in Europe and the United States cannot support the work of large-scale software. Only some mainframes can meet the requirements of running large-scale software such as 3D drawing software.

With the support of Wang Jiankun, Xingyao Electronics is already preparing for the production of 1-micron chips and 1G memory.

The factory buildings and corresponding equipment in Hong Kong have been installed and are currently undergoing testing. In about two months, the production line will be debugged and the 2-micron chip and 1G memory will be able to be mass-produced.

The first batch of chips produced will be mainly used in mobile phones and base stations. Hong Kong's Sin Chew Group has basically completed the laying of text message base stations, and the next step will be to start the construction of mobile phone base stations.

Wang Jiankun used his superpowers to manufacture 100 base station samples, which are now on their way. In January 83, the first mobile phone base station will be erected on the ground in Hong Kong.

Wang Jiankun also manufactured 500 mobile phone samples based on the drawings designed by Zhizi, and sent them to the Hong Kong branch of Xinzhou Group. After waiting for customers there to use them and provide feedback, Xingyao Electronics in Guangzhou can start mass production.

According to Wang Jiankun's estimate, this mobile phone, which costs HK$6 and has a monthly fee of HK$60, is expected to sell around 50 units in Hong Kong.

After the Hong Kong market opens up, Southeast Asian countries are expected to sell about 300 million units, which will make Xingyao Group a billion-level enterprise.

Moreover, if the development in countries such as Africa, South America and the Middle East can proceed smoothly, Xingyao Group and Xingyao will be comparable to Motorola and Ericsson in Europe and the United States.

Will become the world's leading communications giant.

However, Wang Jiankun's plan to enter the domestic communications industry did not go smoothly.

Previously, Hong Kong's Sin Chew Group had contact with a state-owned enterprise in Hong Kong, but there was no further news. It is said that the country has already planned to cooperate with Motorola to introduce pager technology and mobile phone technology.

Wang Jiankun asked the person in charge of Sin Chew Group to focus on development in Southeast Asia, South America and Africa first, and maintain some contacts and necessary tracking in China. It would not be too late to develop in China after Sin Chew Group grows stronger.

Wang Jiankun had always wishfully believed that the country would choose Xingzhou Group's text message technology, believing that his technology was more advanced.

However, apart from technology, the country is still mainly considering other aspects, such as cooperating with large European and American companies. In addition to obtaining technology, it can also strengthen relations with those countries and jointly fight against the threat from the Soviet Union in the north.

Therefore, he no longer forces himself to cooperate with large domestic enterprises and ministries. Instead, he plans to cooperate with some local enterprises and collective enterprises, adopting the strategy of surrounding the cities from the countryside.

Although this kind of cooperation will be slower, it will allow him to lay a more solid foundation and gain more say.

The technology and most of the production equipment for the two factories currently invested in Wuyuan are provided by Wang Jiankun's Xingyao Group, but its equity share is at most 49%.

In addition to Wang Jiankun's desire to give back to his hometown, this is also related to current policy regulations.

Although the government has opened up restrictions on foreign investment, there are still some requirements in terms of equity. Basically, foreign investors can only hold a maximum of 49%.

Only in the special economic zones can wholly foreign-owned enterprises be established, but there are also requirements for the industries in which those enterprises are located. In the beginning, they were mainly processing-on-commissioned-materials enterprises, with the raw materials and final products all outside, and only production was done in the special economic zones.

Wang Jiankun had Xingyao Group acquire a piece of land in the Special Economic Zone and build a small factory in advance, mainly processing metal parts such as motorcycle engine parts.

This factory is also a display platform for Xingyao Machinery in China. Several types of machine tools produced by Xingyao Machinery are installed in this factory and are turned on every day to produce some parts.

When customers want to order machine tools or when we find customers, we will take them to visit the factory and even let them use the machines to experience the extraordinary machine tools produced by Xingyao Machinery.

Now some collective enterprises in the Pearl River Delta have begun to develop like mushrooms after a rain, and the demand for machine tools is very large. However, domestic enterprises capable of producing machine tools are mainly concentrated in Northeast China and North China, and there are only a few third-tier small factories in the inland, with average product quality and low production capacity.

So since Xingyao Machinery began selling refurbished G series CNC machine tools to the domestic market, the development of these township collective enterprises seems to have been accelerated, and the hardware they manufacture sells particularly well in the Pearl River Delta and Hunan and Guangxi provinces.

The three days of the monthly exam passed quickly, and Wang Jiankun rode his motorcycle back to the Wangjia Production Team on the morning of New Year's Day.

That day was the second day of the Erjiu solar term. The sky was gloomy and it seemed like it was going to snow. Wang Jiankun put on a very warm cycling suit and a helmet made according to his head shape, and drove slowly towards his hometown at a speed of more than 40 yards per hour.

On the way, he met five Jiefang trucks from the production team. Wang Jiankun inspected these vehicles when they met, repaired the easily worn parts such as gears and crankshafts, and cleaned the carbon deposits inside the engines.

The driver of the truck who was driving the car felt that it was instantly easier to drive and the sound changed a little.

But they didn't think much about it and focused on the road ahead, because there were sometimes icy puddles on the road in winter, which could cause the vehicle to slip if they were not careful.

After arriving at Tsinghua University, Wang Jiankun met Hu Xiyang, whom he hadn't seen for a long time. Hu Xiyang was waiting for guests at the bridgehead.

"Hu Xiyang, I haven't seen you for a long time. How is your business lately?"

"Oh, is that Jiankun? I haven't seen you for a long time. I never saw you when I went to your production team to collect goods.

Business has been good recently. You see, I have an apprentice and am teaching him how to drive. When he becomes a master, I plan to buy a truck or tricycle to transport people.”

"Are you planning to buy another car? It looks like you've made a lot of money this year. It seems like it was the right decision to start your own business."

"Yes! Of course it's also thanks to you that you always asked me to transport goods to get through the period when you had no work in the early stage, and you often asked me to transport goods later."

"That's because you're honest. By the way, is the cement factory business in town doing well now?"

"That's great. Your commune has placed a large order here. The town plans to build three more kilns this year to double its production capacity."

"Really? Then your business should be back!"

"Hehe! That's because a coal mine opened in Raozhou this year, so the town dared to expand production. Before, it had not expanded because of the lack of coal."

The establishment of the new coal mine in Raozhou was thanks to Wang Jiankun. At that time, he was doing technical transformation for the small steel plant in Guangfeng Town to help them improve their pig iron production capacity and steelmaking level. At that time, he followed the guidance of the factory director to take a look at a small coal mine that had been excavated in their town and planned to build a warehouse there to store things.

When Wang Jiankun arrived there, he used his supernatural powers to observe the closed small coal mine and discovered that there were several coal seams more than 30 meters below the mine that had been mined out, and the thickness of each coal seam was more than 3 meters.

Then he explored along the discovered coal seam and found that there was actually a large coal mine underneath. According to the estimated volume of the detected coal seam, more than 3 million tons of coal could be mined.

Moreover, this coal is very good bituminous coal, which can be used for coking and then for smelting steel. Of course, it can also be used as fuel in other aspects.

At that time, Wang Jiankun asked about the nature of the coal mine and learned that it was managed by the town government. So he asked the director of the small iron factory to contract it and then cooperate with him to mine the coal mine.

After half a year of construction, the coal mine has now officially started mining. Wang Jiankun provided the corresponding mine boring machines and underground rail transportation systems, making the mining efficiency of this coal mine much higher than that of the surrounding areas.

However, for the sake of long-term development, Wang Jiankun asked the factory director Zhang Xiong to control the mining speed and mine according to the long-term orders that had been received, and not to mine too much and pile it outside.

"Hu Xiyang, you are busy. I will go home first."

After Wang Jiankun chatted with him about his recent situation, he saw that his car was almost full, so he said goodbye and left.

After arriving in Fengshan, Wang Jiankun did not stay there but drove directly to the Wangjia Production Team.
