After Li Bingquan and Han Dingze read it, they passed it to other leaders attending the meeting so that everyone could review it together to avoid being accused of any foul play.
At this time, everyone was whispering and discussing, because if estimated based on this asset statement, the four textile factories were really not worth much.
Whether it is a loom, a spinning machine, or a printing and dyeing machine, all the machines are old and dilapidated, the factory buildings were built decades ago, and the level of all the equipment remains in the 1960s and 1970s.
For example, foreign countries are using shuttleless looms, such as rapier looms, projectile looms, air-jet looms, water-jet looms and so on.
However, China is still using the most traditional shuttle looms, all of which are manually operated and have a very high failure rate.
How do you compare? How do you calculate the price?
All the leaders were worried. Even if they wanted to sell the product, they had to find a good name.
The secretaries took the time to calculate and finally gave a number to Li Bingquan.
Li Bingquan coughed and read from the manuscript paper:
"I just calculated the number. Our four textile factories are worth 30 million RMB, and that's even including the tables, chairs, benches, pots, pans, and utensils." (The land is not included.)
"Only 30 million?"
Everyone looked regretful. Although 30 million was a lot, it was far from what everyone expected.
Commissioner Han finally became enlightened:
"We can't just consider the economics; we also have to consider the political aspects. These four factories employ nearly 30,000 people, which is a very heavy burden for us. If Hong Kong is willing to shoulder this responsibility, it will definitely be beneficial to us."
For the region, the monthly subsidy for these 30,000 employees is nearly 1 million yuan, and more than 10 million yuan a year, which is really a drain on the regional finances.
Workers are not assets in the eyes of leaders, but are seen as "burdens" and negative assets. This has to be said.
This is absolutely unimaginable for business owners who faced a labor shortage in 2020.
In later generations, the bosses of major private enterprises in Zhijiang Province were all worried about where to recruit workers. Some even went to the train station to pick up signs to recruit people, or poached people in the labor market.
During the Chinese New Year and other holidays, they had to personally send cars to take the workers back to their hometowns, and promised to reward them with a certain amount of money for every worker they brought back from their hometowns, for fear that the workers would not come back after the Chinese New Year.
Things are really different now.
If we remove the two most valuable assets, workers and land, these four textile factories really don't have much money left.
Even 30 million yuan is a false report. An old second-hand textile machine secretly sold to a township enterprise would not be worth more than 1,000 yuan, but the asset statistics table says it is worth 3,000 yuan.
The old foxes in the conference room are well aware of this, so they think it is difficult to make such a quotation.
If you shout too much, people will not be willing to do it. If you shout too little, the region will feel like it has missed out on a fat sheep, as if it has missed out on hundreds of millions.
Everyone turned their attention to Deputy Commissioner Gu again. After all, he was in charge of economy and industry, so he should at least give a rough number.
What can Gu Wei say?
In this meeting room, he couldn't make decisions for the secretary, and after returning home, he couldn't make decisions for his son-in-law either.
"How about this, I'll go back and negotiate with the Hong Kong merchants about a suitable price. After all, such a big deal can't be settled in just one or two meetings."
Everyone nodded repeatedly.
Yes, by selling four textile factories at once, the Yuezhou region has really been at the forefront of reform. If the central government makes any new moves, everyone will have to take risks.
It was Li Bingquan who made the final decision:
"That's it, then. I'll report to the provincial leaders on the specific restructuring plan. Deputy Commissioner Gu will be responsible for negotiating with the Xiangjiang side. As for the specific price, it can't be less than 30 million RMB, ahem."
After saying this, Secretary Li blushed.
When everyone was discussing heatedly how to sell the textile factory at a good price to make up for the losses caused by the bad government.
At this time, Boss Chen Xiachen was not doing his job and went to Yangshan Scenic Area to watch the fun, where "Journey to the West" was being filmed.
That’s right, it’s the 1986 version of Journey to the West, directed by Yang Jie and starring Liu Xiao Ling Tong and the husband of the Rosewood Queen.
Some readers must be wondering, you yourself said it was the 1986 version of "Journey to the West", why is it still being filmed now?
In fact, "Journey to the West" was not broadcast all at once, but was broadcast as much as it was filmed.
For example, the 1982 drama "Exorcising the Black Chicken Kingdom" was broadcast on National Day of that year.
On February 3, 1984, the two episodes "The Plan to Capture Zhu Bajie" and "The Three Strikes on the White Bone Demon" were broadcast.
During the Spring Festival of 1986, nine episodes were broadcast, including "Treasure Hunting in the Lotus Cave", "Eliminating the Demons in the Black Chicken Kingdom" (a remake), "Battle with Red Boy", "Fighting with Magic to Conquer the Three Monsters", "Fun Journey to the Kingdom of Women", "Three Adjustments of the Banana Fan", "Sweeping the Pagoda and Examining Strange Injustices", "Mistakenly Entering the Little Leiyin Temple", and "Monkey King's Clever Medical Practice".
Why is this happening? This has to do with the many hardships the crew of "Journey to the West" faced.
Artists at that time still had their own aspirations. In order to present the best scenes to the audience, they really traveled all over the country and took real-life photos.
Unlike later TV movies, most of them are computer-generated or cutout.
The crew of "Journey to the West" was poor because CCTV also launched the crew of "Dream of Red Mansions" at the same time. Maybe because director Yang Jie had a rather tough personality, the crew of "Journey to the West" was not so popular.
The limited funds were basically given to "Dream of Red Mansions".
The crew of "Journey to the West" said that they traveled all over the country, but in fact they really had to live on coarse food and save money to an abnormal level. Even the extras were the crew's own people.
And there is another detail,
All the shots of "Journey to the West" were shot with only one camera, only one, while other crews used multiple cameras to shoot from multiple directions, click, click, it was easy and simple.
In the end, "Journey to the West" was so poor that there was no money to continue filming.
CCTV said they don’t care, there is no money, either stop filming or find a way to raise money and sponsorship.
In this way, Mr. Li Hongchang, the deputy director of the production department of the crew and the actor who played the centipede monster, the hundred-eyed demon king, and the welcoming Buddha, relied on his personal connections to get 3 million yuan from China Railway 11th Bureau to continue filming.
But they only finished the next five episodes before they ran out of money again.
It wasn't until 1998 that the remaining sixteen episodes were finally filmed.
