In fact, the requirements for opening a factory in the 1980s were already quite simple.
If this were in later times, a factory would have to deal with various departments, including investment promotion, environmental protection, safety supervision, health, water affairs, fire protection, quality supervision, taxation, labor, public security, power supply, urban management, and so on.
Every department is a force to be reckoned with. There are several with enforcement powers. If a problem arises, one department can simply put a seal on your door, and you won't be able to operate normally. Once the rectification is completed and the system is restarted, multiple departments will need to sign off on it.
That's very difficult.
You can't resume work if even one department disagrees.
Therefore, for a company to survive, it must maintain good relationships with all departments and cannot afford to offend anyone.
There must be smooth relationships between superiors and subordinates, especially among lower-level clerks, there should be no conflicts.
The King of Hell is easy to deal with, but his underlings are hard to handle. If you encounter someone with long arms and a ruthless heart, they can make your life unbearable.
In terms of environmental protection, this cement prefabrication plant has such prominent environmental problems that in later generations it would not only be shut down in no time, but its person in charge would even be summoned for questioning.
The environmental protection department has the power to enforce the law, and if the water quality of the discharged water fails to meet the standards, it can shut down the factory on the spot.
It is legitimate, reasonable, and legal.
Everyone knows that in the early years, everything revolved around economic development, and everything else gave way to development.
It's not that the government is unaware that these factories cause pollution, but the priority is to ensure that people have enough to eat and escape poverty; this fundamental premise cannot be changed.
As for environmental protection issues, those can only be addressed in future generations.
This is the price of development.
It's like a poor person who, in their youth, neglects their health to make money, practically sacrificing their life for it. When they get old and their health fails, they can only use the money they earned in their youth to pay for medical treatment, and so on.
People know this is bad, a vicious cycle, but they still work hard their whole lives. There's no other reason than that old age brings its own set of difficulties. If they don't work hard to earn money, they won't even be able to get through their youth.
Wang Tianxiao didn't understand business management either. His limited knowledge came from Wang Peng. After graduating with his doctorate, that kid first partnered with others to start a company, and later started his own business independently. He started from scratch and experienced almost every kind of difficult situation in starting a business.
Wang Tianxiao heard it so many times that he remembered it.
Although he couldn't offer his son much help, he had decades of experience working in a public institution and would occasionally share his views with his son, which would provide him with some inspiration and assistance.
Zhang Wenyuan looked confused, and Wang Tianxiao hesitated for a long time before saying nothing.
He knew that Zhang Wenyuan was a very sensitive person to business opportunities, and also very decisive and capable. His confusion was only temporary. As long as he had a little time to process it, he would soon be able to sort out the right path for him from the intricate relationships.
If I were to try to teach someone something I don't know, it might mislead his thinking and ultimately affect his future.
"Calm down and think carefully, and you will definitely clear your mind. Your confusion right now is not because you lack the ability, but simply because you are not used to unfamiliar things. I think you have no problem."
"I hope so."
Zhang Wenyuan sighed softly, then suddenly laughed, "It's hard to believe that I'm being encouraged by you. If others saw me like this, they would be quite surprised."
“That’s right,” Wang Tianxiao laughed. “I told you you didn’t need it. I was just joining in the fun. You’re the one who should be doing things properly.”
“Hmm, I’ll give it a try,” Zhang Wenyuan nodded, then suddenly asked, “Old Wang, you still haven’t told me what you want after this deal is done.”
"We'll talk about it after it's done."
"You trust me that much? Aren't you afraid that you'll get nothing after it's all done?"
Wang Tianxiao looked into Zhang Wenyuan's eyes and smiled.
"If I misjudged you, that's my responsibility, and getting nothing in return is my punishment. If I'm right, then you won't let me down. So, this test is for you, Mr. Zhang, and has little to do with me."
"Ha ha."
Zhang Wenyuan laughed heartily, patted Wang Tianxiao on the shoulder, and said, "Don't worry, I, Zhang Wenyuan, am not that kind of person. I will definitely not let you down."
"I think so too." Wang Tianxiao smiled and pointed upwards. "But I still want to emphasize again, you must be extra careful when dealing with those people..."
"Don't worry, Lao Wang, you really don't need to worry about this. I can't guarantee anything else, but I will definitely not make any mistakes in this matter."
"good."
Wang Tianxiao thought about it and agreed. People from this kind of background usually have a strong sense of sensitivity, so there's really no need to worry about this kind of thing.
As for the benefits Zhang Wenyuan mentioned, he wasn't worried. From the beginning, he was prepared to play the long game and catch big fish, prioritizing relationships over personal gain.
He believes the future will be bright.
He proceeds cautiously, gradually expanding his goals, aiming for success in multiple areas and reaping the rewards simultaneously. Even if some gains don't meet his initial objectives, he can at least mitigate the risks.
Heaven rewards diligence; it will never fail to reward hard work.
.
By mid-May, things were starting to look promising.
The new plant, now owned by Wen Yuan Prefabricated Plant, has officially started production.
At Wang Tianxiao's suggestion, Zhang Wenyuan adopted a five-shift, two-rotation model, increasing employee wages to improve production efficiency and speed.
Because the wages are almost double what they used to be, and a production bonus has been introduced, with extra rewards given to work teams that produce more and meet quality standards each day.
