Chapter 1119 A Grand Day



April 27, 1987 was the day when China's fourth set of Chinese currency was issued.

China finally has large-denomination banknotes.

The only pity is that only two denominations of 50 cents and 50 yuan were issued on that day.

The 100-yuan note that Wan Feng was looking forward to would not be issued until another year.

The 100-yuan banknote was issued on May 10, 1988, along with the 100-yuan coin, which had a denomination of 20 cents, 1 yuan, and 2 yuan.

The 15-yuan and 10-yuan notes were not issued until September 22, 1989.

There are no twenty-dollar bills.

Although the new currency issued this time does not have a denomination of 100 yuan, the denomination of 50 yuan is acceptable.

Wan Feng went to several banks and exchanged 10,000 yuan for 50-yuan bills, which was far from the 50,000 yuan he wanted to exchange for 50,000 yuan for 50-yuan bills.

When I got home, Luan Feng confiscated two of them, and then Zhang Xuan took two of them away, and Jiang Min also exchanged two of them.

In the blink of an eye, six pictures were gone.

He exchanged the money for convenience, and these women just wanted something new. What's so new about it? There will be plenty of it in a few days.

Wan Feng was speechless and returned to Nanwan Factory angrily.

Zhu Yong led the logistics staff to make banners, colorful flags, ribbons and other things, which would be used on May Day.

He also hired a yangko stilt troupe to liven up the event.

It is natural to have some fun, but does fun mean prosperity?

As of today, Wan Feng has been back for twelve days, and those Soviet technicians have been infected by the soaring enthusiasm of the Nanwan Factory.

They actually joined this trend on their own initiative. Not only did they mingle with the people in Nanwan Factory during the day, but they also started working night shifts at night without any treatment to carry out improvements.

Because after China's technical workers figured out the working principles of these CNC machine tools, they actually came up with more than a dozen improvement plans in one go.

Sergei himself came from the Soviet recycling union, and the improvement plans proposed by the Chinese employees were not even discovered by the Soviets.

In addition to the improvement of these machine tools, Sergey also participated in the development of the next generation 90CC engine of the Nanwan plant.

Wan Feng was not on guard against these Soviet technicians. Even if they learned the technology, it would not be of much use. The Soviet Union was about to disintegrate, and by then they would have no time to research technology.

It was many years later when Russian screws took over the Soviet Union's mantle and resumed these technological research. By that time, the 125CC engine of the Nanwan factory might have been released.

At that time, the 90CC engine technology was no longer a secret.

"Sergey! Are you interested in settling down and working in China in the future?"

"Come to China? Never thought about it." Sergei shook his head.

"What if the situation in your country, the Soviet Union, becomes unstable in the future and your living conditions cannot be guaranteed?"

"That's impossible. Our Soviet Empire is great and invincible."

Sergei certainly didn't know what the fate of the Soviet Union would be. In their minds, the Soviet flag would always fly.

"Sergey, the world's developments sometimes defy human will. Something might happen that would astonish you. Don't you realize that the current situation in the Soviet Union is already unstable? Several of your ethnic minority republics in Europe are already stirring up trouble. Perhaps one day they'll become independent, and if they do, the Soviet Union will cease to exist."

Sergei frowned and thought for a long time: "Wan! If you said that in our Soviet Union, you would be asked by the KGB to read the newspaper."

We Chinese call it drinking tea, and you call it reading newspapers?

"Of course, all of this is just speculation. If such a day ever comes, Sergey, the door of my factory will always be open to you, and I will also help you obtain citizenship."

Chinese citizenship can be said to be the most difficult nationality to obtain in the world, but Wan Feng knows that during the disintegration of the Soviet Union, many Soviet scientists and senior intellectuals became naturalized Chinese citizens.

Although he is not yet able to solve the naturalization problem of these Soviet people, there is still time and there will always be a way to solve it.

"Wan! If the Soviet Union ever becomes unstable, I will consider your suggestion."

Wan Feng also said the same thing to other Soviet people, but the answers he got were no different from Sergei's.

There is no rush, there are still several years to go.

Now Wan Feng is sowing a seed in their hearts, maybe it will sprout one day.

These Soviet technicians also had to work overtime with the Chinese at night, which made it difficult for Liang Bingyu. She was the only one among the seven foreigners, so the intensity of her work increased.

When Wan Feng saw Liang Bingyu, he found that she was a little depressed.

Wan Feng was worried that Liang Bingyu would get sick from working too much, so he began to strictly prohibit these Soviet people from working overtime with the Chinese at night.

The workers here in China are on night shift, why are they joining in the fun?

He didn't give them any money.

Wan Feng assigned this task to the night shift workshop director. If these Soviets worked overtime with the workers in the workshop at night, Wan Feng would deduct his bonus.

In this way, the phenomenon of Soviet people working overtime at night was eliminated.

In contrast to Liang Bingyu who felt listless after staying up late, Qi Hong became more energetic the longer she worked.

I don’t know where this woman got the spirit of poverty, but whenever Wan Feng saw her, she was full of energy.

In just twelve days, apart from Li Da's group of capable people, Qi Hong was the first among the workers to master the operation of CNC machine tools.

For someone who had no previous knowledge of machining, this was a bit of a miracle.

It’s a pity that her cultural level is a bit low, otherwise Wan Feng really believes that this woman will make a name for herself in CNC machine tools.

May 1st came in the blink of an eye.

Today is the day when the AX100 motorcycle officially rolls off the production line at the Nanwan plant.

Early in the morning, Wan Feng changed into a suit. It would be inappropriate to wear sportswear for an occasion like today, after all, commune and county leaders were going to be present.

At six o'clock in the morning, Wan Feng arrived at Nandawan.

From a distance, you can see a row of trucks parked in front of the gate of Nanwan Factory. These trucks are parked from the gate of Nanwan Factory to the gate of the instant noodle factory.

Wan Feng thought it was a truck carrying instant noodles. He was thinking that these trucks carrying instant noodles were so unrespectable that they actually parked in front of his Nanwan factory. He wondered if something big happened in the Nanwan factory today.

It was not until we arrived at the gate of Nanwan Factory that we realized that these trucks were left by Zhang Shiqian's agents to transport motorcycles.

They are ready to take away the first batch of motorcycles as soon as they come off the production line.

A huge banner with the slogan "Warmly celebrate the grand launch of the AX100 motorcycle at the Nanwan factory" has been hung at the gate of the Nanwan factory. Colorful flags and flower baskets are also placed at the gate.

Although the time has not yet arrived, many workers have already gathered in the Nanwan factory.

Everyone's face was filled with a smile mixed with excitement and happiness.
