Rebirth: My 80s

Chapter 707 Rebellion

In the morning, the weather in Xi'an was good, the sun was shining brightly, which dispelled a lot of chill.

Provincial Materials Administration Courtyard.

"Jiankun, why doesn't something feel right?" Gao Jinxi whispered to Li Jiankun.

There was a staff member in front of him guiding the way, and after listening to his explanation of his purpose. His expression looked extremely strange at that time. He confirmed his identity three times in a row, and then without saying a word, he said he would take them to see the leader of the bureau.

Li Jiankun most likely understands the reason, but it's a long story, and I don't have time to explain it now. I will definitely talk about this issue later, so let's talk about it later. "Have it?"

Sun Mingtian also noticed the change in the expressions of the staff, and he was already very energetic. He was thinking about what obstacles could be found on the Materials Management Bureau, so he could immediately exercise the power given to him by County Magistrate Liang and stop this plan.

The group of people walked up the cement steps in the building and came to the door of an office in the corridor on the right side of the second floor. After Gao Jinxi glanced at the sign of "Director's Office", he frowned a little more.

"Boom boom boom!"

"Enter!"

The staff wanted to signal them to wait, but Li Jiankun had already "barged in" with his feet. He could probably guess what the young man wanted to report. He didn't expect to see the director directly, but he couldn't let the other party ruin a good thing.

The staff member glared at him, followed quickly, bowed slightly to the middle-aged man behind a red lacquered five-drawer table and said, "Bureau Zhou, is from the Suixian County Committee in northern Shaanxi Province. He said they can get one." Approval of goods."

He added an accent to the word "good goods".

"Oh?" The middle-aged man stood up slowly, waved to greet them, and motioned for them to sit down on the red lacquered wooden sofa opposite.

After Li Jiankun and the others sat down, Gao Jinxi shook hands with Director Zhou who came over. The latter asked: "Comrade of the Suixian County Party Committee?"

Gao Jinxi nodded with a smile and took out his work permit to show the other party.

"Deputy County Magistrate Zhou, come on, please sit down. Xiaoma, bring some tea."

The young man who was called Xiaoma stayed behind. It seemed that he was not going to do the job of serving tea and pouring water, but he had no choice but to bring four cups of green tea, which were served in white porcelain cups with handles. Printed with "1982 Xi'an Material Management Bureau Year-end Celebration" are printed in small red characters.

Director Zhou waited for them to take a sip of tea, then looked at Gao Jinxi and asked, "What are some interesting local products in your county?"

People from impoverished counties and districts usually sell this kind of stuff, and people at the second level of provinces and cities like it quite a lot, as it is of high quality and low price.

"No," Gao Jinxi replied with a smile, "It's a refrigerator, an imported refrigerator."

Swish!

Zhou Ju's expression suddenly changed.

Pony then showed a sharp gaze.

Gao Jinxi noticed this change and quickly explained: "We are goods from formal channels. To be honest, I have found some connections. The county is too poor and I want to do a trade to ease the financial pressure."

"Deputy County Magistrate Zhou, do you know that the import of refrigerators has been banned two years ago. Except for a very small number of overseas Chinese and foreign-related units such as Friendship Stores, which can allocate a small amount of resources, even our Provincial Materials Bureau is not allowed to Refrigerators imported from other countries!”

"Ah?!" Gao Jinxi was dumbfounded.

Sun Mingtian was so overjoyed that he almost laughed out loud. He kept clamoring about imported refrigerators. Well, it turned out that they were not allowed to come in at all. The plan is over.

Hu Ziqiang also looked stunned.

"I, I don't know." Gao Jinxi couldn't help but responded hastily. His daily work did not involve the import of materials, and their county really did not have the ability to import any materials.

"So no matter what channel you get the goods from, it must be irregular. Have you already gotten it?" Director Zhou said in a deep voice, "That's a mistake!"

"No, no, not yet, just plans, plans..." Gao Jinxi waved his hands repeatedly.

Xiao Ma, who was leaning on the side of the sofa, breathed a sigh of relief. Originally, he was just going to wait for Director Zhou's order and directly notify the Industrial and Commercial Inspection Team.

"That's lucky." Zhou Ju's face softened slightly.

"Deputy County Magistrate Zhou," Sun Mingtian snickered, "If that's the case..."

"Shut up." Li Jiankun glanced sideways, interrupted him, then looked at Director Zhou and said, "Deputy County Magistrate Zhou didn't make it clear, it's not a refrigerator, but a refrigeration machine."

Gao Jinxi, Sun Mingtian and Hu Ziqiang all looked at him in confusion. Isn't a refrigerator just a freezing machine?

But Zhou Ju's and Xiao Ma's expressions suddenly returned to normal. The former laughed and said to Gao Jinxi: "Oh, Deputy County Magistrate Gao, please make your words clear. You really scared me just now. I'm really afraid that you guys will make mistakes. Refrigeration machinery is fine, it is indeed in short supply, your county actually has such a channel?"

Gao Jinxi laughed awkwardly and without replying first, he turned his head to Li Jiankun's ear and asked, "Didn't you mean the refrigerator?"

"It's a refrigerator."

"That……"

"The bigger ones are called refrigeration machinery."

Gao Jinxi: "..."

It made him dizzy.

Seeing that he didn't reply, Director Zhou asked again: "What type of refrigeration machinery?"

Li Jiankun took over: "Small size, suitable for hotel, commercial or home use."

"Oh?" Director Zhou frowned slightly, "What's the capacity?"

"Over 360L."

Zhou Bureau opened his mouth slightly, but did not make a sound. He stared deeply at Li Jiankun. After a while, he asked: "You can actually import ice with a volume of more than 360L... household refrigeration machinery?"

People of later generations are accustomed to double-door refrigerators and even four-door refrigerators, and are not surprised by large-capacity refrigerators. But these days, the common refrigerators in the two industrial powerhouses in China and Asia, Nihong and Bangzi, are not large. The former is because the refrigerator manufacturing industry has just started, and the latter two are due to lifestyle issues, so they are almost It can be said that in the entire Asian market, the capacity of mainstream refrigerators does not exceed 360L.

How big is 360L?

The international standard oil drum capacity is 200L, which can be compared and imagined.

Therefore, a refrigerator with a capacity of 360L is actually not too small.

The refrigerators currently manufactured in China usually only have a few tens of liters, and a hundred liters can reach the sky. Such a capacity is obviously not easy to meet the needs of seven or eight people in a common family today.

But even so, families who really need it have to buy this kind of small-capacity refrigerator, because even this kind of small refrigerator is in short supply, and if you have a special ticket, you usually have to wait for the goods.

In the final analysis, the domestic refrigerator manufacturing industry has a shallow foundation and has only begun to develop vigorously in recent years.

In fact, many well-known refrigerator brands of later generations were born during this period, such as Rongsheng, Xinfei, etc. There were also many business tycoons of later generations who were gearing up to start with the refrigerator product, such as Li Jili, Zhang Haier, etc. .

Li Jiankun shrugged and said with a smile: "What are we going to do if we can't do it?"

Zhou Ju said quietly: "You have done some research."

I didn’t do any research, I just read a biography of Mou, and happened to know this. Li Jiankun's smile did not change: "Isn't it legal and compliant? Don't you want it... Director Zhou?"

Gao Jinxi and the others were dumbfounded and had no idea what riddles these two were playing.

"Haha." Zhou Ju suddenly slapped his thigh, "Yes! We want as many as we want!"

Who doesn't want that?

Large-capacity refrigerators can be regarded as hard currency in the current market, enough to trigger rushes, and naturally create extremely impressive performance and profits for their units.

"Where did you get the supply?" Bureau Zhou couldn't wait to ask.

Logically speaking, this is a business secret, but from business to business, this is not a regular business after all, and Li Jiankun did not hide it: "Port City."

"Can the port city produce such a large amount of ice...household refrigeration machinery?" Director Zhou was surprised. Their Provincial Materials Bureau is in charge of the procurement and deployment of scarce materials in the province. It has a lot of external business. In fact, in terms of refrigerators , it’s not like they haven’t thought about it.

The problem is that they cannot purchase refrigerators that both cater to the market and meet import standards.

The current regulations are: Refrigerators with a volume of less than 360L are not allowed to be imported, but parts are allowed to be imported and assembled domestically to improve the technical level of the refrigerator industry. At the same time, refrigeration equipment with a volume of more than 360L is allowed to be imported, because some industries have rigid demand, and It is still difficult to manufacture with independent technology.

This means that as long as the refrigeration equipment has a volume exceeding 360L, no matter what it is called, it can be purchased legally and compliantly.

"of course."

Li Jiankun did not explain much. The refrigerator is a relatively simple product in electrical appliances. The core is the compressor, and the volume is just a shell. The reason why the market for refrigerators above 360L is rare is because the demand is not high. If the quantity is large, even if No, can't it be customized?

Moreover, the feedback from the port city is: yes.

There are ready-made models of this large-capacity refrigerator, but sales are very poor.

"What you are talking about...is there anything we don't know about?" Gao Jinxi couldn't help but interjected.

"Oh? Deputy County Magistrate Gao still doesn't know? Aren't you two together?" Director Zhou said this while looking at Li Jiankun.

"I'm his classmate, but we didn't talk about it in such detail before." Li Jiankun looked at Lao Gao. The reason why he didn't explain it clearly earlier, now that he thinks about it, is because he was subconsciously delaying it.

He was a little worried about Lao Gao's loyal and honest character...but he also knew that he would have to tell him sooner or later.

"So the path is yours?" Director Zhou heard the implication, and when he saw Li Jiankun nodding, his eyes shone with light, and he was in a good mood, and then explained to Gao Jinxi:

"Deputy County Magistrate Gao is like this. It is not allowed to import common refrigerators, but the import of refrigeration machinery with a capacity of more than 360L is in compliance with the regulations..."

As Sun Mingtian listened, the heat in his heart felt as if a basin of ice water had been poured on him.

After hearing this, Gao Jinxi's expression turned unpleasant. He stood up and said, "Jiankun, please come out."

You can't escape what is coming... Li Jiankun followed him to the corridor outside the door.

"Why don't you tell me clearly? Although doing this and doing this is in compliance with the regulations, isn't it perverse and hindering the development of the refrigerator industry?" Gao Jinxi frowned in front of Li Jiankun, his brows furrowed.

"Lao Gao, I don't think so. I also hope you can think about it carefully using economic thinking: in a healthy market development model, competition is the core driving force. Self-protection may lead to rapid growth, but this kind of Growth must be unhealthy, and it is forced to encourage growth. The products born from it cannot be excellent and cannot withstand the impact of the market..."

Li Jiankun had a serious expression and expressed his ideas patiently and seriously.

This is why he doesn't mind this plan at all. Even if this concept seems a bit outrageous at the moment, it is undoubtedly right and comes from the successful experience of later generations.

As the country becomes more and more open, those products and companies that cannot keep pace with the times will eventually be submerged in the wave of the market. Those products and companies that continue to get better and stronger despite difficulties will eventually step onto the world stage. .

Protect what?

The shopping mall is like a battlefield. Those who cannot grow on their own should be eliminated. It is not worth protecting; those who have a tenacious spirit do not need to be protected.

"Why can't I refute what you say?" After a long time, Gao Jinxi raised his head from his contemplation, "Good money drives out bad money. A healthy development model should be like this."

Li Jiankun breathed a sigh of relief and grinned: "Because you are a person who can think rationally."

"Are you praising me or yourself?"

"Haha, there are both."

The two looked at each other and laughed.
