Chapter 14 Commissioning Ceremony



On September 20, Heqian Food Factory (cannery) officially started production.

At nine o'clock, the parking lot in the yard of Qianhe Food Factory was bustling with people. The village secretaries and directors, the heads of various stations, and all the personnel of the Party Committee and government offices, except those who stayed on duty, gathered below the venue and sat in pre-arranged seats.

On the rostrum, two rows of conference tables were covered with red velvet.

There are two rows of people sitting on the rostrum.

Front row: County Party Secretary, County Magistrate, Director of the County People's Congress, Chairman of the CPPCC, Deputy Secretary, Executive County Magistrate, Deputy County Magistrate in charge of economic affairs, Secretary Li Jianguo and Ma Bin.

Sitting in the back row were: the director of the county's two offices, the director of the Planning Commission, the director of the Economic and Trade Commission, the director of the Finance Bureau, the director of the Public Security Bureau, the director of the Taxation Bureau, the director of the Industry and Commerce Bureau, the director of the Quality Supervision Bureau, the director of the Power Supply Bureau, etc.

Sitting in the two rows in front of the rostrum were: township secretaries, township mayors, deputy directors of functional bureaus, etc.

The meeting was chaired by Li Jianguo.

Secretary Li Jianguo's face was flushed today. He was wearing a suit and tie. His hair had obviously been trimmed and waxed. Although his hair was blown by the wind, it was not a single strand out of place.

The first item of the meeting: Speech by the director of Qianhe Food Factory.

Ma Bin was also wearing new clothes today, holding a manuscript in his hand, and walked to the microphone trembling with excitement:

"Dear Secretary, County Governor, distinguished leaders and guests, good morning!"

"The Qianhe Food Factory covers an area of ​​15 mu (approximately 16 acres) and plans to invest 600,000 yuan to produce 40,000 tons of canned goods annually. The project is divided into three phases with 20 canning production lines. Once completed and put into production, the first phase will initially invest 200,000 yuan and two production lines, with a daily output of 15 tons and 30,000 bottles of canned goods, and employ 60 workers."

"We will strive to have all 20 production lines put into bid and put into operation around May 1 next year."

"After full production, our factory can achieve an annual operating income of 36 million yuan, directly create 600 jobs, and indirectly create 1,000 jobs in the industrial chain."

"We can realize an annual profit of 3 million yuan and contribute 2 million yuan in taxes to the country!"

"During the construction process, our Qianhe Food Factory received strong support from leaders at all levels and departments, including the leaders of Honghua Township and the county party committee and government. On behalf of the 60 employees of Qianhe Food Factory, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to you!"

Ma Bin bowed to the leaders on the rostrum, and then bowed to the leaders below the stage to express his gratitude!

"We, Qianhe Food Factory, will definitely strongly support local economic development. Next spring, we plan to allocate 100,000 yuan to expand the construction of high-quality fruit bases and 100,000 yuan to improve transportation conditions!"

There was thunderous applause from the stage and the audience, which made the leaders of various townships in the audience look at each other with jealousy and envy.

"We, Qianhe Food Factory, will definitely be a conscientious enterprise, an enterprise with trustworthy quality, and an honest and trustworthy enterprise..."

Applause rang out again. It must be said that the speech compiled by Sun Zongyuan himself was very touching.

The second item of the meeting is the speech by the county party secretary:

"Today we are sitting here to solemnly hold the opening ceremony of the Qianhe Food Factory in Honghua Township. I feel very happy and proud!"

"A month ago, we held an on-site meeting on education and transportation in Honghua Township. After the meeting, I told Comrade Li Jianguo that your economy is a weak link. We can't just ask for money from our superiors to do our business. At that time, I hoped that Honghua Township would take the first step."

"Now, Honghua Township has given me another surprise. They have actually started the construction of Qianhe Food Factory. What kind of spirit is this? This is the spirit of daring to be the first. This is the spirit of thinking about the cause of the Party and the people. I am proud of you, Honghua Township!"

There was thunderous applause from below that lasted for a long time. Everyone in Honghua Township, from Li Jianguo to the ordinary cadres, stood up straight with pride.

"I hope Honghua Township will remain neither arrogant nor impatient, take the initiative in its work, and continue to stride forward..."

The secretary gave a twenty-minute speech.

The third item of the meeting is the speech of the county governor:

"...Honghua Township has made some achievements. I have three requirements. First, we must protect the development of the enterprise. No individual or organization can interfere with the business operations, reveal various expenses, or use corruption as an excuse. If any such interference occurs, let the Discipline Inspection Commission handle it!"

"Secondly, each township must do a good job of integrating the two. If you can't can food, you can grow fruit. Don't be jealous and set up obstacles. For the sake of the people, no one can do this!"

"Thirdly, Qianhe Food Factory collects over 2 million yuan in taxes a year, while our entire county's fiscal revenue is only over 6 million yuan, which is equivalent to a 50% increase in fiscal revenue.

In addition, it directly and indirectly employed 1,500 affluent workers. Calculated at a monthly salary of 50 yuan per person, that means 1,500 families have moved from poverty to prosperity. So this project is truly enriching the people and the government.”

"Then our county and each township must consider how to achieve development and how to develop in accordance with local conditions. Some leading cadres can handle other tasks, but when it comes to economic development, they scratch their heads. That's not acceptable. We must all learn from Honghua Township and Comrade Li Jianguo and learn how to handle economic work!"

Applause broke out, and many cadres clapped their hands while thinking about development issues.

The fourth item of the conference is to invite leaders to unveil the Qianhe Food Factory.

The fifth item of the conference is on-site observation.

All personnel walked into the factory and observed the equipment from a distance:

There are two brand new stainless steel canning production lines. Workers in white coats, white hats and white shoe covers are busy in front of the assembly lines. Red slogans about quality control and safe production are hung on the walls. The production workshops are clean and bright. The leaders at all levels of the county and township have changed their inherent influence on the factory workshops, and everyone is amazed.

After the opening ceremony, there will be a dinner reception.

Leading cadres from various towns and counties all had their meals in the village. Since there were not enough tables in the cafeteria, they vacated several offices to serve as restaurants, and 30 benches were transferred from the primary school for emergency use.

The village slaughtered a few sheep and stewed the mutton, which was delicious and not greasy. There was plenty of 45-degree dry river liquor. The county leaders ate more politely, but the leaders of the various townships didn't care about that. They shouted and ate and drank a lot, and everyone was determined to eat the rich man Li Jianguo down.

The village and township-level cadres of Honghua Township and the heads of the seven stations and eight institutes all set up tables for their meals in the open-air square of Qianhe Food Factory. They all ate with greasy mouths and drank with excessive drunkenness.

Whether they were county-level leading cadres or leaders of various townships, or even rural cadres from Honghua Township who had meals at the food factory, each of them received a box of 12 cans of canned apples in syrup before leaving.

Everyone felt warm in their hearts and secretly thought that Honghua Township and the Food Factory were righteous and kind. Secretary Li Jianguo's great influence was unconsciously established in the minds of leaders at all levels.

The cadres who were familiar with the inside story of the cannery also secretly gave Sun Zongyuan a thumbs up and looked at him with admiration.
