1979 The Life of Idle Fish

Chapter 599 I, Hu Hansan, am back again (hahaha)

The next day!

The Economic News published an exclusive interview with Luo Tao yesterday morning.

The title is also very eye-catching - "Luo Tao talks: Xichang Company should be a conscientious enterprise and a national enterprise".

“...I believe Xichang will use actions to prove that it is a conscientious enterprise and a national enterprise...

...Under the great banner, Xichang will never become a worm of society or a lackey of capital...

…Xichang will definitely be the vanguard of China’s private enterprises.

In the future, Xichang will not only provide a large number of jobs for the society, but also set an example in social welfare undertakings...

... Xichang will surely tell them with practical actions that the sparrow knows the ambition of Kunpeng! "

The economic newspaper published his remarks almost verbatim, taking up half of the newspaper's space that day.

This is the first time since the founding of the Economic News that a person or a company has been covered in such a large space.

The newspapers also contained a lot of private information, but they were all words of praise and praise. This time the Economic News interviewed Luo Tao, it was more or less on a mission.

Luo Tao understood this in his interview with the Economic News.

..................................................................

"The words of a conscientious enterprise are exaggerated. The goods sold in Xichang are not sold at a conscientious price? Take the leather shoes for example. I bought them at Tianqiao for only a few dozen yuan, but when I went to Xichang, they cost 80 yuan.

Also, not long ago, I went to their store to buy a down jacket for my wife. It looked good. When I asked the waiter about the price, guess what? "

I saw this bald man in a suit holding a BP belt in his left hand and holding a cigarette in his right hand. He leaned lightly on his Xiaori motorcycle and vividly told others about his experience.

Of course, in order to better highlight that he was different from these people, he cleverly used some techniques.

Others were also curious and didn't care about his bad intentions.

Asked: "What's wrong? Please tell me quickly?"

When he saw the fish caught, the bald man was not in a hurry at all. He frowned and took a puff of his cigarette. He was so impressive that those who didn't know thought he was a street kid from Xiangjiang.

Now I no longer rely on my motorcycle, I am ready to mingle with the people.

"Just for that down jacket, they actually charge more than 400 yuan, and they don't offer any bargaining power. Do you think this Xichang is a conscientious enterprise?"

The price of this down jacket has increased several times compared to previous years. Previously, a domestically produced down jacket only cost 70 yuan. For a two-income family, this price is only a little more than one person's monthly salary, so it is still affordable.

But now this one costs several hundred yuan, and even the combined monthly salary of two people is not enough!
Nowadays, the monthly salary of employees is only a few dollars, and a down jacket costs more than 300 yuan. This price is no longer accessible to ordinary families.

I don’t blame people for complaining, but then again, I can’t blame Xichang for this.

The price is almost the same across the country, and some are even higher than the price of down jackets in Xichang, but the general price range is between [-] and [-].

If you buy foreign products, they will definitely be more expensive than domestic products.

"Hey, is it right here? It's the same price when you go to a department store to buy it.

I said San'er, you have bought a BB camera worth several thousand dollars, why are you reluctant to buy a down jacket for your wife? "

BP machines are commonly known as BB machines, both of which are pagers, the English abbreviation of pager-beeper. The reason why people are accustomed to calling BP machines BB machines is probably because the sound that reminds them of incoming messages is "didi".

Pagers are called BB machines in China because of this sound. Perhaps no one would have thought that more than ten years later, two penguins would appear in the Chinese Internet world because of this sound.

The BB machine is a symbol of wealthy people from the mid-to-late 80s to the early 90s.

These days, anyone with a BB camera in their waist will feel windy when walking.

It’s not his fault that others said it, but these three sons went a bit too far. Even if they didn’t buy a down jacket for their wife, they actually wanted to put this shit basin on Xichang’s head. This is like throwing firecrackers in a public toilet - arousing Public outrage.

"Who said I didn't buy it? I bought several. Come on, I won't talk to you guys anymore. It's boring." He flicked the half-smoked cigarette and flew it to the corner of the wall. Dusting off the hem of his suit, he turned over and got on the motorcycle.

Facing the rearview mirror on the motorcycle, he looked at his bare and hairless light bulb.

Everyone else showed an intriguing smile and ignored him, continuing to read the newspapers.

The bald man is also used to them being jealous of his wealth, so he doesn't pay much attention to them, and just slaps the motorcycle... After a few kicks, the motorcycle becomes bald.

Before leaving, he glanced at them with his little eyes and thought: They are a bunch of poor people.

"Bye bye!"

Well... I saw a pile of iron carrying a shiny duck egg, flying towards the street.

"Virtue, there are two stinkers to see what he can do." With his bald head and urinary personality, he will naturally not win the favor of his neighbors.

"It can't be helped, the world has changed, the workers stay aside, and the second-class dealers are the masters." Folding the newspaper in his hand, one person said something meaningful.

"Who says otherwise? After reading newspapers for so many years, except for the speeches of the chiefs, when have you ever seen other interviews taking up such a large space?" He said and entered the hospital with his hands behind his back, ignoring the other people behind him. discussion.

"This is capital coming to power, and there is no way for us to survive."

"Well, look at what you said... Don't be too pessimistic. I don't think this is as serious as you say. On the other hand, this is still a good thing.

It shows that the attitude above is to support us below in revitalizing the economy... Just think about it, if the country's economy improves, won't the lives of our families also get better?

... As for what capitalists?We can't worry about this, there's nothing mentioned above...

In fact, Xichang is quite good. Judging from their performance in the past few years, they can indeed be called a conscientious enterprise. They donate money and materials to the society. I have never heard of this before..."

This thought and consciousness are worthy of being the master of the capital.

"Ouch!" This person smacked his lips, "Look, what this retired cadre said is different from us."

"I said, Old Chen, what do you mean by this?"

Lao Chen was only half-joking just now, but he didn't expect this person to take him seriously, so he quickly explained himself: "Lao Zhang, I don't mean anything else, don't think too much about it...

What you said makes some sense, but prices have risen too much this year. He, Luo Tao, is the leader of the second-level dealers. It's normal for everyone to have opinions about him. "

This old Chen knows Luo Tao quite well, and also knows that he is the leader of Erdao Dealers (the honorary president of the China Individual Association). What is this if not the leader?
After more than a month of reports in the news media, ordinary people have gradually understood why prices have risen so fast a while ago. It is all man-made. To be specific, it is the second-rate dealers and trespassers who have taken advantage of the opportunity to create trouble and drive up the prices in the market.

They don't like to see these people very much.

However, Luo Tao cannot be blamed for the rising prices. He fundamentally disagrees with it.

He is the leader of the self-employed in the country, but he has never been a family owner for a day, and of course he cannot manage these people well.

Nowadays, the management of these associations, especially private associations, is very loose, and there are no rules and regulations. They can come and go as they please.

"Old Chen, you've just said that. They are they, Xichang is Xichang, they are essentially different. We can't rely on others for rising prices. Didn't they make it clear in an interview with reporters in Xiangjiang? Isn’t that right?…the Western approach doesn’t work here.

Although prices have risen dramatically this year, haven’t they changed again?…”

After being rebutted by Lao Zhang, Lao Chen immediately lost interest in continuing the conversation with him.

"Yeah, what you said makes sense. I'd better go back to the house and rest." Lao Chen left very decisively, without hesitation at all. You can see his helplessness about the rising prices.

As soon as Lao Chen entered the house, several others moved their little horses home one after another. Under the locust tree at the gate, Lao Zhang, who was fighting for Luo Tao's injustice, was left alone.

Looking at the gentle sunshine in the morning, shining on the asphalt road in the alley; looking at the leaves of the Sophora japonica that have turned yellow at some point, wondering whether they were dropped by the wind or man-made.

He was also helpless. People were panicked and frightened by the rising prices.

What is even more helpless is whether the road to reform can continue smoothly in the future.

For just a moment, he stood in the alley and thought a lot...

"Hey, I'm a retired cadre, why worry so much?"

..................................................................

As time went by, the economic newspaper's report on Luo Tao sparked another big discussion in the capital and even the whole country.

I don’t know what happened?Since the Shekou incident this year, people across the country have become surprisingly fond of big discussions. No matter what happens in the country, they just want to discuss it.

Especially young people, they are the main force and initiators of big discussions.

It is good for young people to discuss issues, but when they are too young, some ideas are polarized, that is, the bad is too bad, and the good is too good.

For example, some people praise Luo Tao and Xichang to such an extent that they are worthless, while others denigrate Luo Tao and Xichang to the point where they are worthless.

This is no longer a good thing.

Regarding the outside discussion, Luo Tao hid and watched the battle secretly without participating.

Even if he is beaten to death, he will not get involved. Especially in the past few years, he cannot have frequent contact with these young people. He is from this age group and has seen strong winds and waves. He knows it very well. The power of these young people.

For this reason, Luo Tao also called his student Zhang Shenzhi to his home and told him not to join in the fun.

He is his own student, if he gets involved, it means that one of his feet is also involved.

"...It would be better if it could still be done. Don't take it seriously."

Shen Zhi filled a cup of tea for teacher Luo Tao and returned to his seat. When Luo Tao said this, Shen Zhi became very curious and asked casually: "Teacher, is this not as serious as you said?"

Luo Tao stopped before he raised the tea cup to his mouth and said, "Hey, it seems that what I just said was in vain."

"Teacher, that's not what I meant. I have remembered what you just said. I just can't understand this matter? Why don't you tell me."

It has been almost two years since Shen Zhi came to Beijing. He has been following Mr. Jin and Lao Zhangtou for a long time, as well as the old man Luo Shaoyi and Father Zhu at home. He has gradually acquired the taste of Beijing movies.

"Do you think this is a good thing?" Luo Tao took a sip of tea and asked him.

He held the teacup in his hand and thought for a moment, then said uncertainly: "I don't think this is a bad thing, right?"

Judging from the tone of this answer, he is not suitable to get involved.

"If you think it's useful, why go to school?"

Uh……

Luo Tao continued: "The current task of students is to study hard and make progress every day, and learn knowledge, instead of following those people in society to discuss important issues.

Do you know what kind of people they are? "

Shen Zhi shook his head. He only knew who the group of people Luo Tao was talking about, but he didn't know what kind of people they were.

"They are just a bunch of blood-sucking pests, but of course they are also a driver of economic development."

Their existence is sometimes contradictory, but sometimes it is not.

It was impossible for Shen Zhi to understand these words deeply, but he also heard some implicit meaning.

"This……"

"What? I can't understand."

"Yes, since we know they are pests, why not get rid of them now."

Luo Tao smiled when he heard this. This is the young man, "Who does economic development depend on?"

"We are..." Shen Zhi was still very enthusiastic and talked a lot of truth.

"You, you, it has been ten years since the reform, and you have been chanting the slogan of breaking the iron rice bowl for a while. Why do you still retain such old ideas now?

If people's hearts are not ancient, what does it matter...?

The people you talk about are no better than that group of people. They are the ones causing trouble in what happened this year..."

What Luo Tao said shocked him. This was the first time he heard such secrets today.

He was so shocked that he couldn't say anything. He even drank several large cups of tea before he recovered.

"Teacher, there are too many twists and turns here."

At this time, Luo Tao stood up with a tea cup and walked to a pot of orchids indoors, pouring some tea out.

He fiddled with the leaves of the orchid, then looked back at him and said, "This is just the tip of the iceberg."

"So don't get involved in this kind of discussion in school. If you have time, read more books on economic and social philosophy. Reading more will be good for you.

... From now on, this weekend will not be the same as before. I have to stay at school for one day before going to live in Lanyuan, and then stay for most of the day, and then go back to school in a hurry. Isn't this tiring? "

Shen Zhi always obeyed Luo Tao's words and knew that the teacher's instructions were good for him.

"Hey! I know."

"From now on, you will learn painting from Mr. Pan, and also learn more about calligraphy and painting restoration from Mr. Liu and Mr. Lou.

Don't take your..."
