Volume 10: Infinite Scenery on the Dangerous Peak

"The economic situation this year is not very good, but we, Songzhou, can no longer wait. No matter how difficult it is, we may have to face the difficulties. Moreover, from the central government to the province, it has also been clear that the next three years should be the three years of the tough battle for state-owned enterprise reform. Songzhou must also take advantage of this east wind and this opportunity to start our reform situation." Shang Quanzhi frowned slightly, "For the people, you are very creative and distinctive in Fengzhou's economic work. And as far as I know, you have also taken the lead in the reform of state-owned enterprises in Shuangfeng and Futou counties. Although the scale of state-owned enterprises in the county is not much the same as that in Songzhou, it is ideal, so I want to hear your views and opinions on this."

Lu Weimin didn't expect Shang Quanzhi to have such a problem for himself.

How could the scale of state-owned enterprises in Songzhou be comparable to those of Shuangfeng and Futou?

Even if the state-owned enterprises in the entire Fengzhou area are added together, they are probably not as good as a fraction of the time in Songzhou.

Of course, not all state-owned enterprises in Songzhou are dying, and there are still better development and management. However, Shang Quanzhi definitely did not ask himself what enterprises have developed and managed well. He must prescribe a prescription for those enterprises that are desperate and have become a big burden on the Songzhou Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government. The question is whether he has the ability?

He was not in his position and did not do his own politics. Logically speaking, this topic should not be interrupted by himself, but Shang Quanzhi raised it so openly, which really made Lu Weimin a little difficult.

Anyone can talk about it in a simple and general way, and Lu Weimin can also talk big. The question is, is this what Shang Quanzhi wants? This is related to his impression in the future of the city secretary, but for a moment, Lu Weimin didn't know what to say.

Lu Weimin estimated that what Shang Quanzhi was most concerned about was the way out of Songzhou's pillar industry - the textile industry.

The six major state-owned textile enterprises in Songzhou - Songzhou No. 1 Textile Factory, Songzhou No. 2 Textile Factory, Knitting Factory No. 2, Knitting Factory No. 4, Silk Factory, Towel and Bed Sheet Factory, almost all fell into a loss situation, especially Knitting Factory No. 2 and First Textile Factory No. 1. The situation of the Second Textile Factory and Knitting Factory No. 4 is not much better. The towel and bed sheet factory has been suspended for nearly half a year, and the only thing that can be seen is the silk factory. However, since last year, the efficiency of the silk factory has also declined sharply, and the situation has been even worse this year, so the pressure facing Shang Quanzhi is quite large.

Songzhou is the largest textile industrial base in Changjiang and a famous textile industrial base in East China. Although it cannot be compared with these places in Shanghai, the scale of hundreds of thousands of ingots is also a big player in Changjiang, a province where the textile industry is not a pillar industry.

In addition to the textile industry itself, although the scale of Songzhou Textile Equipment Factory and Songzhou Textile Instrument Factory is far less than that of these six major players. However, its reputation is not small. Songzhou Textile Equipment and Instrument Marketing in East China once occupied the markets of Jincheng, Yuzhou, Jiangcheng, Shanghai and other places. However, with the recession of the national textile industry, the former star enterprises gradually declined.

It can be said that the entire state-owned textile industry is in trouble, which is like a noose that makes the Songzhou Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government breathless.

However, the general poor performance of the state-owned large textile industry does not mean that there are no exceptions. Lushan Group located in Lucheng is one of them.

Lushan Group is a township enterprise. Its leader is Wei Jiaping, an employee who resigned from the Songzhou First Textile Factory in 1992. Lushan Group has now reached 80,000 spindles, with more than 2,000 employees. It is currently the largest township enterprise in Songzhou and one of the best-performance township enterprises, with an output value of more than 2000 million yuan. Its main product denim is exported in large quantities to Europe, America, Japan and South Korea.

In addition to the recession of the textile industry, Songzhou's machinery, electricians and steel industries are also sluggish. Overall, state-owned enterprises have poor operating conditions. However, relatively speaking, the situation of township enterprises is slightly better than that of state-owned enterprises, while private enterprises are better than township enterprises.

The restructuring of state-owned enterprises cannot be generalized, nor is it a overnight success. The situation of each enterprise is different. How to solve the development problems of enterprises needs to be guided according to local conditions. Lu Weimin believes that Shang Quanzhi should be clear about this.

"Secretary Shang. You have passed my exam." Lu Weimin grinned.

"Oh? I passed you through the exam? It's not that right. You, Lu Weimin, are a well-known expert in economic work in Fengzhou. You have only been in Songzhou for a few days and are not adapted to the local conditions?" Shang Quanzhi also laughed.

"Hehe, Secretary Shang, I didn't say that. First of all, I came to Songzhou for a short time, and I was not very familiar with the situation in that regard. I knew that there was no investigation and no right to speak. I just made a judgment on what I heard about, which was also a waste of verbal words." Although Lu Weimin spoke with a smile, his tone was very formal. "Second, the economy of Songzhou is incomparable to Fengzhou. It can be said that Fengzhou's industrial economy has basically developed slowly on the basis of poverty and drought, especially Shuangfeng and Futou, so I know it in my mind. Songzhou is different. The total economic output of Songzhou is much higher than that of Fengzhou, and the state-owned economy accounts for a considerable proportion. In addition, the collective economy and the proportion of non-public economy is quite small. I don't have much experience in how to get such a large-scale state-owned enterprise out of the predicament."

Lu Weimin said it very calmly. This is the truth. Indeed, it is obviously impossible for him to come up with a magic pill at once. If he really wants to say something big, he will not be able to miss veterans like Shang Quanzhi.

"Well, this is also reasonable, but you really have no suggestions?" Shang Quanzhi also admitted that what Lu Weimin said makes sense, but he never believed that Lu Weimin really only focused on publicity and political and legal work. How could such a guy who has made great achievements in economic work not understand the current poor economic situation in Songzhou? It is impossible for him to have no considerations and ideas.

"Well, Secretary Shang, let me ask you, what attitude do you have towards the reform or restructuring of state-owned enterprises in Songzhou? Do you just want to solve the current specific difficulties of state-owned enterprises? Or should you promote the development of the entire Songzhou economy through the opportunity of state-owned enterprise reform?" Lu Weimin smiled on his face, but the question was profound.

Shang Quanzhi is also an old fox, so of course he can understand that Lu Weimin has something in his words. He asked with a smile: "How do you say the former and what do you say the latter?"

"The former, to solve the problem, is to follow the general principles formulated by the central and provincial governments. If you should press ingots, if you should go bankrupt, if you should go bankrupt, if you should be merged and reorganized, if you should be merged and reorganized, you should be retired early, whether you should go through social security, buy out of your work experience, or leave your job early, I guess you can get through it after a period of pain, but Songzhou will lose weight after this wave." Lu Weimin said with a smile.

"If you just lose weight and remove the swelling of your body, it may not be a good thing, but if you damage your vitality, it will not be worth it." Shang Quanzhi said calmly: "What about the latter?"

"The latter may face many risks. The risks I am talking about do not refer to the kind of property or economic risks between corporate mergers, but to the political risks of those in power." Lu Weimin said as if nothing had happened.

"Oh?" Shang Quan Zhi raised his eyebrows and heard the profound meaning of Lu Weimin's words, "Political risks? Haha, if you do politics and do not take political risks, then what risks will you bear? Tell me, what political risks are there for the people, let me listen to it."

Lu Weimin didn't expect Shang Quanzhi to be so calm. After being slightly stunned, he said: "Songzhou's economy needs to develop, and state-owned enterprises do have to shoulder heavy responsibilities, but it is neither realistic nor impossible to rely entirely on the development of state-owned enterprises. I personally believe that if Songzhou's economy wants to get rid of the current dilemma, on the one hand, it must unswervingly promote the reform of state-owned enterprises, and at the same time, it must also promote the reform of township enterprises, so that this fresh blood can be revitalized. At the same time, it must further use its greatest efforts to encourage the development of the private economy, encourage private enterprises to merge state-owned and collective enterprises, promote the diversification of Songzhou's economic components, and fully mobilize the positive factors of various economic components."

Shang Quanzhi was obviously dissatisfied with Lu Weimin's words. He shook his head, "Weimin, I know that the so-called political risks are nothing more than breaking the original framework in terms of economic components. Shang still dares to bear this political risks, but can what you said make Songzhou's economy escape from difficulties?"

Lu Weimin smiled indifferently, "Secretary Shang, what I said is probably not as simple as breaking the framework in terms of economic components. If I say that private enterprises merge with the first textile factory, township enterprises merge with the fourth knitting factory, and the second textile factory goes bankrupt directly, can you accept it?"

Shang Quanzhi was stunned. Lu Weimin's step was a bit big. He originally thought that Lu Weimin wanted to encourage the development of the private economy and increase the proportion of the private economy. Unexpectedly, Lu Weimin proposed that a large state-owned enterprise like the First Textile Factory was directly merged by private enterprises. This...?

Although multiple economic components are now encouraged to coexist and a relaxed and supported attitude towards the development of the private economy, the private economy is a private economy after all. It is of course acceptable to everyone if it does not affect the dominance of the public ownership economy. However, if you want to abolish large state-owned enterprises such as the First Textile Factory or the Second Textile Factory, what do you think about it? What do you think about it from above and what do you think about it in the economic field?

Seeing that Shang Quanzhi was a little hesitant, Lu Weimin also knew that this was reasonable. Although the speech of May 29 has been conveyed, the left-wing thoughts in China still have a large market. A paper by a municipal party committee secretary in the Central Party School as an alternate member of the Central Committee was also besieged. The article only discussed the development trend of ownership, which caused a lot of storm. Shang Quanzhi's weight is obviously not comparable to that of the alternate member of the Central Committee.
