Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 194

Duan Yun's team has maintained efficient and busy operations for more than a week.

Orders are increasing every day, so that the speed of assembling antennas cannot keep up with the speed of shipments. For the first time, Duan Yun is in danger of having no goods to sell.

Seeing this situation, the four young workers Cui Lin and Cao Dong got the hospital certificate directly through their relationship, asked for leave with the workshop director, and got sick.

Workers in state-owned enterprises have an iron rice bowl, and factories with sick patients must also be paid their wages, but the corresponding bonuses and various benefits are also gone.

In the past, for these apprentices, the factory's bonus of at least three or four yuan a month was a good income, but now the little bonus lost in the factory is nothing compared to the installation fee earned by Duan Yun. , so seeing that Duan Yun was about to run out of stock, Cui Lin and the others asked for leave from the factory without even thinking about it.

As for Duan Yun, besides researching machine tools on the night shift, he only sleeps, so it doesn’t matter if he asks for leave, he just sleeps in another place, so now Duan Yun’s team except him, the rest of the young workers are now working full-time at Duan Yun’s place live.

Cui Lin and the others spent the morning catch-up time on installing antennas, which made Duan Yun's replenishment speed finally catch up with the sales speed, which made Duan Yun couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Antenna sales are getting more and more popular. With a net profit of 2000 to [-] yuan a day, Duan Yun finally successfully became a "ten thousand yuan household" after a week!
In fact, as early as the 70s, the first batch of 1976-yuan households appeared in the southern Wenzhou area. Hu Jinlin, the most famous "electrical appliance king" among the "Eight Kings", had a net worth of 5 yuan as early as 80. In the early 10s, I was able to earn several [-] yuan a year.

At that time, Nian Guangjiu, the founder of 'Fool's Melon Seeds', was amazing. In 1976, he made a full 100 million by selling melon seeds!If you look at the currency price and inflation rate of future generations, this 100 million is almost equivalent to [-] million in future generations!

But in the north, it was only in the mid-to-late 80s that "[-]-yuan households" were frequently mentioned. Now Duan Yun has become a [-]-million-dollar household through his antenna business, which is undoubtedly a very remarkable thing.

However, after Duan Yun successfully crossed the threshold of 1 yuan households, he did not stop. In the next half month, Duan Yun earned more than 5000 yuan. An astonishing [-] yuan!

It is impossible for Duan Yun to put so much money at home, and there is no place to put it at all. You know, the largest denomination banknote these days is a ten-yuan bill, and 5000 yuan is a full 25 stacks. banknotes!If this is kept at home, it will definitely be discovered by the mother and sister.

Now Duan Yun just wants to be a low-key ten-thousand-dollar householder. Once his mother and younger sister find out and accidentally say it out, it won’t be long before it spreads throughout the factory. Not good, many unexpected accidents will happen!
So Duan Yun simply divided the money into several shares and stored them in several branches in different factory areas.

Nowadays, banks do not have a network system, and ordinary people do not have ID cards. Naturally, there is no real-name system for saving money. Banks only recognize passbooks and seals.

Duan Yun used several fake names to deposit all the money, then kept the passbook in his own hands, and deposited it every few days in order to put his eggs in different baskets.

The time soon came to the end of September, when Duan Yun was off the night shift this morning, Duan Yun was stopped by the secretary Zhao Dongsheng at the door of the workshop.

"Secretary, what do you want from me?" Seeing Zhao Dongsheng waving to him, Duan Yun walked over quickly with a smile on his face.

"I want to tell you two things." Zhao Dongsheng first smiled and said, "The first thing is that the factory held a workers' congress yesterday afternoon, during which the model workers nominated by each workshop were reviewed, and you have passed the test. You will be NO at the end of the month. Factory 30 will celebrate the [-]th National Day Model Worker Commendation Ceremony in the employee club, and you will be officially awarded at that time."

"Thank you secretary!" Duan Yun said happily after hearing the words.

In fact, Duan Yun's nomination of model workers was finally selected, which is what he expected. Generally speaking, as long as Duan Yun did not make mistakes and was punished by the factory during the nomination period, he would definitely be selected in the end. He was praised by the police station and the factory, so it was a certainty that he was formally elected as a model worker.

"You still have a task at this commendation meeting..."

"What mission?"

"The long-term committee decided to ask you to give a public speech as a representative of the young employees of the whole factory at this National Day Commendation Conference. Go back and prepare..."

"Secretary, I'm timid. I'm afraid I won't be able to speak in front of so many people..." Duan Yun said embarrassingly.

Duan Yun naturally understood that this speech on behalf of the young workers must have been specially won for him by the secretary. It is also necessary to use Duan Yun's speech to publicize Zhao Dongsheng's insight and help to him, which can be regarded as indirectly giving Zhao Dongsheng part of the credit for the technological transformation. Duan Yun naturally knows this well.

It's just that Duan Yun's money has soared recently, and he doesn't have much time to prepare his speech, so he simply wants to shirk.

"Are you timid? You dare to modify the lathe without authorization when you first entered the factory and dare to say that you are timid? Even if you are timid, you still have to give a speech! This is a task for you and must be completed!" Zhao Dongsheng's face darkened, and he continued: "This It is a very glorious thing. Many workers have never had such an opportunity after working in the factory all their lives. Moreover, not only the factory leaders will attend this standard meeting, but also the leaders of the municipal party committee and the Ministry of Machinery Industry will also be present to participate in this commendation meeting. Not only do you have to give a speech on stage, but you also have to prepare well, write a speech later, and hand it to me first, and I will help you polish the pen!"

"Well, that's good." Seeing that he couldn't evade, Duan Yun had no choice but to agree.

"Also, have you not been to night school for the past half month?" Zhao Dongsheng asked with a frown.

"Secretary, I..."

"I don't want to hear your reasons!" Zhao Dongsheng interrupted Duan Yun, and continued: "Director Liu at the night school has called me twice. If I hadn't said hello to him, you wouldn't have gone there earlier. I will fire you!"

"Secretary, I was wrong." Duan Yun apologized repeatedly.

"You don't need to admit your mistakes, it's up to you whether you take the exam or not." Zhao Dongsheng paused, then sighed softly, patted Duan Yun on the shoulder and said, "Xiao Duan, I may be strict with you A little bit, but it's definitely for your own good... I also know that your cultural background is poor, but you are still young, and you still have a long way to go in the future. It is good to read some books, it is much better than wasted playing poker, I will not say more, you are so smart, you should be able to figure out some things..."

"Secretary, I promise to study hard in the future." Duan Yun nodded and said.

"Okay, you can go back, just remember to go to the night school at night." After Zhao Dongsheng finished speaking, he turned and left...
