Reborn during the early days of China’s reform and opening, the narrator finds himself in the 1980s countryside. In this setting, the past is still a cold reference, yet it is also a fresh start. N...
Wan Feng always holds a half-believing and half-doubting attitude towards the phenomenon of gods and Buddhas, half believing and half not believing.
In his own words, he is half materialist and half idealist.
When he was sitting in the car and was indifferent, he was a materialist, but when he got out of the car and lit three incense sticks in the small temple under the Fox Fairy Cave, he became an idealist.
Wen Zhongguo probably had the same idea as Wan Feng. Since he was already here, he lit three incense sticks regardless of whether he believed it or not.
Wan Feng looked up at the Fox Fairy Cave on the top of the mountain, thought about it, and gave up the idea of going up.
He turned around and watched the yangko dance for a few minutes, and only returned to the car when he saw Zhang Xuan and Luan Feng coming down the mountain.
What made Wan Feng depressed was that he returned to the car, but the two women did not come out. They were probably watching the fun in the crowd.
It was almost noon before they came out with their child.
On the way back, Wen Zhongguo drove the car while Wan Feng sat in the passenger seat looking at the scenery outside.
Two women in the back row chattered like sparrows.
More than 20 years ago, the mountains and valleys were full of dilapidated thatched houses, and people were pale, thin and ragged.
Now, wherever you look, the dilapidated thatched houses have been replaced by two- or three-story buildings, and people are dressed in bright clothes and look full of energy.
As for being sallow and thin, this phenomenon no longer exists. Not only are many people no longer sallow and thin, they have already started to have big bellies.
The changes in life are still obvious.
The year 2006 was calm on the surface for China, but secretly it was a turbulent year.
As for the result, Wan Feng had a smile on his face.
He was not too clear about the specific results, he just knew that after 2008, China became rich, and salaries in both enterprises and institutions skyrocketed.
It was not like the previous increase of dozens, a hundred or two hundred yuan at once like squeezing toothpaste, but it was a sudden increase from the national wage standard of 800 to 1,300 yuan to 3,000 yuan.
Wan Feng couldn’t remember whether government employees were among the first group of people to receive a salary increase, but teachers were the first group to benefit.
These teachers were panicked and confused when faced with such a huge salary increase. They all thought that there was a problem with the salary-paying department. Why was there so much more money all of a sudden?
This made them worry for a long time, and it was not until a month later that they were sure that it was not a mistake and that the extra part was indeed theirs.
After becoming a teacher, it’s time to work in businesses, whether it’s state-owned or private, and salaries are all rising.
The wages of enterprise workers increased from 800 to 1,000 to 2,700 to 3,000 like a rocket.
It seemed like overnight everyone's face was filled with joy and everyone became rich.
What Wan Feng is considering now is what standard salary should Nanwan Group set for its employees when it comes to salary increase?
The average monthly salary of an average employee of Nanwan Group is now 1,800 yuan, plus the year-end bonus, which brings the annual income to around 30,000 yuan. This figure is expected to increase to a minimum of 50,000 to 60,000 yuan by 2009 and 2010.
It doesn't seem like a big number.
If Chinese people become rich overnight, then some people are bound to become poor overnight.
As a result, the subprime mortgage crisis broke out in the West, and the impact of this subprime mortgage crisis did not disappear until ten years later.
Its impact caused numerous Western companies to go bankrupt, and many companies disappeared from the long river of history.
Should I take advantage of the subprime mortgage crisis to acquire some automobile and electronics companies abroad?
This question is like a seed left in someone's head, and it is hard to say whether it can take root and sprout.
People in national think tanks cannot fail to see this. In order to prevent certain forces from taking desperate measures, military spending has continued to increase in the past two years and the number of soldiers has increased dramatically.
This has led to a further increase in the purchase of electronic components this year, and the extent of the increase has forced Huaguang to change its production plan.
The demand for mid-range chips alone has reached tens of millions of sets.
In addition to mid-range chips, some high-end chips with proven stable performance also received a large number of orders, which caused Huaguang's chip production capacity to be suddenly under pressure.
The needs of the country always take the first place. After consulting Wan Feng, Mi Guangnan transferred 80% of Huaguang Electronics' production capacity to military production.
Huaguang Electronics is the main base for Nanwan Group to produce chips. Once it encounters a chip supply shortage, all industries in the group that use chips will be affected.
After shifting to military production, Huaguang only had 20% of its chip production capacity left, and the gap between this capacity and the demand for computer and mobile phone chips was shocking.
The most affected device is the mobile phone.
The impact on those older mobile phones was limited, but the sales of H5555 were greatly affected.
Although the smartphone did not receive a strong response when it was first released last year, its charm began to show over time, especially before and after the New Year, when its sales exceeded 500,000 and 800,000 units respectively. By March, it had exceeded one million units in sales and began to gallop towards the goal of two million units.
And most importantly, the H5555 has passed some European regulatory inspection and will go on sale in Europe this summer.
So the problem arises: there is a problem with the production capacity of the main processor chip of H5555.
It is impossible to expand production capacity now, so we can only find alternatives.
Therefore, Yu Zhengdong began to study the use of foreign chips to replace his own company's chips in mobile phone production.
This is an emergency measure.
On the other hand, Huaguang Chip in Shenzhen Town started its first expansion.
Wanfeng owns far less land in Shanghai than in Shenzhen.
Although some of the land in Shenzhen has been developed by Qiandong and Juchuang in recent years, Wan Feng still has a lot of land in his hands, the exact number of which he himself is not sure.
Although Shenzhen Huaguang Chip is called Huaguang Chip, its main function is chip research and development rather than production.
But now, its expansion project is aimed at producing chips.
In addition to Shenzhen, Nanzuizi has also begun to build chip production lines. It is expected that by next autumn, both places will have the ability to process mid-to-high-end chips, which will greatly alleviate the pressure on chips.
Yu Zhengdong's plan to replace his own chips with foreign chips is conservatively estimated to be completed by August.
Foreign chips are so different from Huaguang's own chips that it's almost like redesigning a phone.
While Yu Zhengdong was scratching his head and designing a chip replacement plan, Wan Feng and the people from Nanwan Microcar were circling around a huge car.
