Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 978
In the next few days, Duan Yun's product technology research and development center has been on the right track. These five retired professors are either soaking in the workshop to check equipment during the day, or drawing in the office. Product development is progressing rapidly.

And after Li Guosheng sent out the recruitment notice in Guangzhou, he heard back very quickly. Seven to 80 people came back and forth, all of whom came to apply for the job of the product technology research and development institute.

Most of these applicants are middle-aged people, and almost all of them are technicians from former state-owned enterprises. They have degrees from technical schools, technical secondary schools, and high schools, but there are no talents with college degrees.

However, after rounds of interviews by Duan Yun, only eight people were left, basically all of them were technical secondary school students. To Duan Yun's surprise, most of these applicants were from state-owned enterprises in Northeast China. technician.

Before the 80s, the Northeast was undoubtedly China's heavy industry base, but at this time there were not many decent heavy industries in the South. Of the 156 major projects that the Soviet Union aided China, 110 were aided to the Northeast. It can be said that at that time The Northeast is the most developed area in the country, while in the South there are only some textile light industries that can be sold, but it is far from being comparable to the Northeast Heavy Industry Base.

However, with the reform and opening up, coastal cities have gradually become the center of the domestic economy, and this situation has undergone a huge change. Because of the unfavorable location, in the early stage of opening up to the outside world, they did not preemptively realize primitive accumulation. The follow-up is also called Nancheng Street First. industrial transfer in rich areas.

The second is the excessive blood loss during the planned economy period. The contribution of the Northeast region to the whole country has always been huge. The country has extracted a lot of tax revenue from it. In addition, it has mobilized various resources, manpower and equipment from the Northeast to support all parts of the country. This also led to the loss of wealth in the Northeast region too quickly.

By the middle of the 80s, the gap between the income of workers in state-owned enterprises in the Northeast and that in the South gradually widened. Although most state-owned enterprises could still maintain their status, they were no longer what they were in the past. The low income and poor treatment led to the flow of a large number of highly educated and high-skilled talents to up south.

Many of these talents who flowed to the south were hired by private companies, bringing them the most urgently needed product technology and invigorating many private companies. However, the Northeast heavy industry companies have gradually laid the groundwork for their decline. Foreshadowing.

Several people Duan Yun passed the interview are from state-owned enterprises, and they are basically in their 40s and [-]s. It is the time when they are in their prime and have the best experience and social experience. Duan Yun can be regarded as a treasure.

In fact, to put it bluntly, the reason why Duan Yun was able to successfully recruit so many people was mainly because the salary he offered was relatively high in Shenzhen. Private companies are much stronger.

"Manager Duan, three more people came to apply this time. We have recruited 8 people now, do we need to recruit more people?" Li Guosheng asked after he came to Duan Yun's office at this time.

"Yes!" Duan Yun replied bluntly, and then said: "Our company's recruitment will continue, and the salary can be raised..."

"It's still improving. I feel that the salary we offer is already very high..." Li Guosheng said in surprise.

"It's so far away, how many people are here?" Duan Yun shook his head with a smile, and then said: "In order to engage in product research and development, I spent so much money on building buildings and buying equipment, these wages are not worth it at all. As long as there are really useful talents, I want as many as I have. Now more and more highly educated talents come to Shenzhen, which is also an opportunity for us. The salary I give is high, but it does not mean that everyone is eligible With this kind of treatment, the initiative is still in our hands, and the high salary is just a bait, so that talented people will come to our company to apply first, and other companies can only choose us to pick the rest, and I will create an assessment in the future According to the system, I will expel those who are not able to work at any time. In this way, the best talents from Shenzhen will gradually come to our company, which will greatly improve the product research and development capabilities of our factory..."

"But I don't think we need to recruit so many technicians..." Li Guosheng said with a frown.

In Li Guosheng's view, the product R&D center now has five retired old professors in charge, and there are more than a dozen technicians to assist. For a small factory with only more than 5 people, such a technical lineup is strong enough. Generally speaking, a small factory of this size only needs three or four technicians, and there is no need to recruit more highly educated talents with high salaries.

"Master Li, don't you still understand?" Duan Yun flashed a bitter smile on his face, and then said: "Whether it is a machinery factory or an electronics factory, we all started with technology. It is far more important than expanding one or two production lines. The production capacity is not enough. I can find other manufacturers to manufacture, but if you don’t have your own good products and good technology, then you can only follow others to eat soup, and you don’t have to It must be able to drink, so if a company like ours wants to grow bigger and stronger in Shenzhen, it must take the route of a technology-based company. We want to be an upstream company. Relying on expanding production scale and recruiting a large number of workers is outdated. In the end, it can only become a foundry of other manufacturers, so you have to change your original concept.”

"I understand what you mean." Li Guosheng nodded in response.

"I specially compiled two papers to assess the technical personnel who are applying for the job. You can make more copies of them. If I am not here in Guangzhou, you can take these papers and let them fill them out when you interview these candidates. If the resume is relatively If it is good, the admission score can be appropriately lowered, not more than 50, even if they are capable, their energy may not be able to keep up, and the rest will be admitted according to the score." While speaking, Duan Yun put a prepared test paper on the In front of Li Guosheng.

"I'm going to make a copy right now." Seeing this, Li Guosheng picked up the paper and left the office.

After seeing Li Guosheng leave, Duan Yun took out a brand new imported Sony Walkman from his bag, and took out a screwdriver from the drawer, ready to disassemble it.

This Sony Walkman is a new product just released in Japan. It is not sold in China at present. It is all parallel imports smuggled from Hong Kong. It has a very delicate appearance and feels a little heavy in the hand.

The research and development of domestic Walkman has always been Duan Yun's goal. Now that the product research and development center has been established, the conditions for Duan Yun's research and development have begun to mature. "Counterfeit version" came out...
