Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 1214 Collapse
Relatively speaking, Hou Weigui is very familiar with the situation within the system.

It can be said that the life of scientific research institutes throughout the 80s was not easy. In the tide of reform and opening up, the funds of scientific research units within the system were limited, and the income of researchers was too low, resulting in a continuous outflow of talents. They either took refuge in private companies or relied on technology Started an independent business, so that in the early 90s, domestic key project research and development units had reached the stage of shortage of talents.

Hou Weigui, who is in charge of ZTE Semiconductor Company in Shenzhen, is also facing such a dilemma, including his current technical R&D personnel in the company. In order to allow them to stay in the company for R&D with peace of mind, Hou Weigui also tried various methods to give them ideas. Work, paint a big picture for their future prospects, and apply for bonuses, subsidies and benefits from their superiors as much as possible, because they are worried that these technicians will be poached by other companies with higher benefits.

It can also be said that one of the most important tasks of Hou Weigui when he came to Shenzhen was to do ideological work for the technical staff below, so as to ensure their "loyalty" to the company. The Seduction of the Bourgeoisie" is just too hard.

When the "going into the sea" trend is sweeping the country, it has become more and more inappropriate to talk about honor and belief.

"Then I won't bother you, Brother Hou." Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Duan Yun planned to act immediately.

"Go slowly." Seeing this, Hou Weigui quickly got up and sent Duan Yun out of the door.

After leaving ZTE Semiconductor, Duan Yun immediately drove to the airport and bought a ticket to BJ the day after tomorrow.

.........

At the same time, in the office of the chief engineer of the BJ Mechanical Industry Automation Research Institute, Jiang Mingwei frowned as he looked at a report on the table.

"Xiao Liu, our project is very important to the country. I have always regarded you as the key backbone of our institute. In the future, I will let you be in charge of national-level project research and development, but now you suddenly propose to suspend pay..." After a while, Jiang Mingwei looked up at a young man wearing black-rimmed glasses sitting across from him, frowned and said: "I know your family's financial conditions are not very good, and I have been helping you to the director's side." Apply for bonuses and grants, you wait a little longer, the money will come down soon..."

"Mr. Jiang, I started to work in our institute after I graduated from BJ Institute of Technology. In the past 8 years, I have learned a lot from you in this institute. I have great respect for our unit, colleagues and colleagues here. The leader, especially to you, is grateful and has deep feelings." When the man with glasses said this, he was a little emotional, and he continued: "But I also hope that you can understand me, Mr. Jiang, Our family is in a rural area, and the conditions have always been poor. My father sold all the most valuable cows in the family to pay for my college education. Although I got married in BJ and the unit gave me a house over the years, there has been no I am able to take my parents over to live with me. Sometimes I feel that I am useless. Although everyone envies me every time I enter the car, they think I am a big shot, but in fact, my monthly salary is only 80 yuan. In BJ In addition to eating and drinking, I can't save much money to honor my parents. I always feel that a person must have a conscience..."

"Isn't everyone the same now? This is also the case in other institutes. Our Beizi Institute is already pretty good. At least we have allocated a house for you. Although the area is a bit small, at least we can help you solve the problem of getting married. " Jiang Mingwei frowned, and then said: "Our project is one of the demonstration projects of the national 863 plan. The country attaches great importance to it and has great development potential. And you are the person I value most in our team. You have not experienced wind and rain. How can we see a rainbow? After our project is successfully developed, I will report your situation to the superiors, and then you will understand that all the persistence now is worth it!"

"Mr. Jiang, it's not that I didn't insist. I have worked in the institute for 8 years, but now, my salary is only tens of dollars more than when I first came here. Don't you know that our domestic prices are rising now?" It’s too fast. Let’s take the restaurant opposite our Beizi Institute as an example. When I first came to Beizi, two steamed buns for breakfast every day cost only 5 cents, and one was only [-] cents. But now even vegetarian steamed stuffed buns It costs [-] cents each, but my salary is about the same as when I first came here..."

"Isn't there a canteen in our institute? The canteen is cheap and clean, so there's no need to eat outside all the time." Jiang Mingwei helped his glasses with his right hand, and then said: "Your family's life has never reached a time when you can't go on, let's talk about it." Alright, as long as the funding for this project comes out, I promise to give everyone a subsidy of 120 yuan each!"

"But……"

"Okay, Xiao Liu, if you really regard me as your master, then you can delay the matter of resignation first, and I will make sure you will be on the list of outstanding individuals at the end of this year!" Jiang Mingwei picked up the application for suspension of salary, He got up and handed it to the young man wearing glasses, saying: "One must have a dream and not live a mediocre life. The country can give you things that cannot be given by other places. You can't give up your own interests just because of your immediate interests." Great future!"

"Master Jiang, I really..."

"Don't say anything, give me a chance, and give yourself a chance. After you get the project funding, I will let you get the highest bonus in the whole institute!"

"Okay..." Seeing this, the young man with glasses didn't say anything, took the application, turned and left the office.

Seeing the young man with glasses leave, Jiang Mingwei heaved a sigh of relief, took a sip from his teacup, and then sat down.

As the chief engineer of BJ Industrial Machinery Automation Research Institute, Jiang Mingwei has had a hard time recently. The young man wearing glasses just now is the third graduate student in their project team who proposed to suspend his job this month.

The limited funds and low income of scientific research units within the system have led to a continuous loss of talents. Even Jiang Mingwei, the chief engineer of the Beijing Institute of Natural Science and Technology, and a well-known top expert in the industry, can only watch the graduate students he has cultivated so hard. Reach out to grab the high-paying olive branches of foreign-funded enterprises in the south.

At present, in the whole Beizi Institute, the computer-aided enterprise management information system project team he is in charge of research has a total of 42 people. Since the beginning of last year, people in the project team have applied for suspension of pay one after another, and 13 people have left his office. The project team, almost 1/3 of the whole team left.

If it weren't for the superiors to quickly "reinvigorate" their project team, the entire project would not have been able to continue.

And this year, this situation has intensified. In the second half of the year alone, 8 people have applied for suspension of work without pay, and even some graduate students simply regard the Beijing Institute of Technology as a "gold-plated" work unit. In half a year, with the title of "Researcher at the Beijing Institute of Technology" on his head, he went to the south to join a foreign-funded company with a good salary. This situation not only happened at the Beijing Institute of Technology, but has even become a common situation in all research institutes...
