Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 1005 Environmental Rectification
The new product recorder was optimized 6 times before and after, and finally it was officially finalized for production a week later.

In the absence of an order, Duan Yun's electronics factory has already started production at full capacity, including the machinery factory, which also needs to produce some miniature motor stator casings and metal casings for small tape recorders.

A large number of electronic raw materials are continuously transported into the factory area, and the four workshops of the electronics factory are also brightly lit day and night. After the new tape recorders are off-line and packaged, they are transported to the warehouse by trucks.

The warehouse capacity of Duan Yun’s factory area is limited. In order to avoid a large backlog, Duan Yun rented several warehouses in other industrial areas for emergency needs.

Seeing more and more inventory piled up in the warehouse of the factory area, Cheng Qingyan hasn't smiled once in the past week, and even when she was working, she unexpectedly found a few white hairs on her head, which made her heart ache. There is an indescribable taste.

On the other hand, Duan Yun still seems to live a very relaxed life. After wandering around the workshop in the morning, he rides a motorcycle to other factories in Shenzhen, sometimes to discuss business orders, and sometimes simply to visit friends in the same industry.

In a blink of an eye, half a month has passed. Near the end of May, Duan Yun's factory warehouse has been piled up, and new products have begun to be shipped to the leased warehouse in large quantities. The inventory of new recorders has reached an astonishing 5 units.

There are more and more goods in the warehouse, and the capital consumption of Duan Yun's company account is also very fast. The wages and bonuses of the workers who purchase raw materials, not counting Duan Yun's previous advertising budget, plus the subwoofer and audio, this month, the purchase of raw materials has exceeded for the first time. 1 million.

It seems that he also found that his wife was frowning, and Duan Yun might find time to cook for her and take her shopping, but even so, Cheng Qingyan still couldn't be happy.

In fact, Cheng Qingyan can understand her mood. After all, the company is running out of funds very quickly, and the order for new products has not yet been received. Therefore, in her opinion, it will be a matter of time before she can make ends meet.

At this point, not only Cheng Qingyan, but also the old professors in the research institute and the employees in the factory are all worried about the operation of the electronics factory, but they are only migrant workers after all, even if the factory closes down, it is nothing more than changing places to work .

At the same time, the SZ municipal government also quietly started actions to control corporate pollution. Liang Xiang held two municipal party committee meetings in mid-May and the end of May, putting Shenzhen's environmental protection on the agenda, and the first thing to do was to rectify The target is the most polluting electronics factory in the Shenzhen Industrial Zone.

If it was placed in the first two years, Liang Xiang would turn a blind eye to environmental protection because of the overall situation, because the Shenzhen Industrial Zone was in its infancy at that time, and the work of attracting investment was the responsibility of the municipal government. It is the most important thing, so the management should not be too strict. Many policies are very loose. Whether it is environmental protection taxes or loans, the SZ city government has shown the greatest sincerity. It is precisely because of this that there are a large number of of enterprises settled in Shenzhen.

By 1985, the number of enterprises in Shenzhen had increased to nearly 4000, and the industrial land was becoming more and more scarce. In order to allow more excellent enterprises to enter Shenzhen, Ma Fuyuan had successfully integrated the state-owned enterprises in the Shenzhen Industrial Zone. Enterprises, the industrial structure has been stabilized, and the SZ Municipal Party Committee finally decided to carry out a "shuffling" of the electronics companies in the entire upper industrial zone through environmental protection rectification.

This is an imminent matter for the SZ city government to rectify environmental protection, but in fact it is obviously aimed at private electronics factories. Because of small scale, low capital, and weak technical force, private electronics factories that can only do three-time and one-subsidy processing industries are in Shenzhen. The structure of the electronics industry is light in weight and highly substitutable, so it has become the focus of this environmental rectification.

"I pay nearly 5 yuan in taxes to SZ City every year. These guys turned their faces when they said they turned their backs. They suddenly made an environmental inspection, saying that our factory's sewage facilities are not up to standard. If we can't complete the rectification within a month, our factory will be shut down. , but the state-owned Huadong Electronics Factory next to our factory also discharges sewage, but they have nothing to do with it! This is unreasonable at all!" Sitting opposite Duan Yun, Xiao Qiang said angrily with a wine glass in his hand.

That day, Duan Yun, Xiao Qiang and the bosses of several other electronics factories had a party in a restaurant in Shenzhen. Not long after they sat down, they heard Xiao Qiang say without anger.

"The Huadong Electronics Factory is a deployment company, can you compare with others?" Zhou Jianglong who was sitting on the other side snorted disdainfully, and only heard him continue: "These large state-owned factories are mainly processing and assembling with supplied materials. There is not much pollution in itself, and the profits of our small factories that produce electronic components are already quite meager, if we are stuck with environmental protection, then can we still have a living?"

"A small electronics factory like ours doesn't make a lot of money. If we really want to meet their standards, at least tens of thousands of yuan will be spent on sewage equipment, and this thing consumes a lot of electricity. By then, we will be busy all year round without losing money. Even if it burns high incense." Xiao Qiang also said helplessly.

"But do you dare not change it? This time it's not a joke, the city government is serious about it." Qian Zhongqiang lowered his voice, and then said: "I also know two friends at the city government. Tell me this time at the meeting of the Municipal Party Committee, it has been said that it is really planning to close down a group of factories that are not up to standard for environmental protection, and the space vacated can be reserved for those new joint ventures. They are big foreign exchange earners, and our annual tens of thousands of dollars What's the money tax..."

As soon as Qian Zhongqiang finished speaking, everyone fell into silence.

The environmental rectification of the SZ city government is indeed imminent, because the local pollution is already very serious. When entering the Shangbu Industrial Zone, you can smell a pungent smell from a long distance, and the river is also black and smelly. The local environmental impact is indeed significant.

But the problem is that large state-owned factories have national capital investment, and generally have relatively complete environmental protection equipment, while these small electronics factories can save as much as they can. It is not a small sum of money to buy sewage equipment and maintain it. It is really according to the rectification plan , The cost of products of these small factories will definitely increase, and when the price of things is high, no one will buy them, which will eventually lead to bankruptcy.

And if they don't make rectifications, they will be shut down by the city government, and they can't escape the fate of bankruptcy. So now these private electronics factories are in a dilemma.

"That means we won't be able to survive for our private enterprises." Zhou Jianglong snorted a moment later.

"You can't say that. If our private companies are shut down, which private company will dare to start a business here in the future? Someone has to do dirty work that doesn't make money, right? Do you think those big factories will take us over? Are these small orders that don’t make a lot of money?” Xiao Qiang frowned and said.
