Chapter 196 Reasons for the sluggish sales of the pot factory

Many people want to see Zhu Daidong fall. Zhu Daidong is unreasonable to this kind of person who reads jokes. At work, he has nothing to be criticized. But if he wants to do something behind his back, such as soating discord and spreading rumors, he doesn't mind letting them have a long memory.

Now, although the products of the pot factory in the development zone are unsalable, the wages of the workers can be paid every month. No matter how many rumors there are outside, the people in the factory are very at ease. As long as the factory can pay wages on time, this has nothing to do with them.

In order to find the sales problem of the pot factory, Zhu Daidong decided to do market research in person, aiming at the county-level distributors. Wu Donghong also wanted to go, but Zhu Daidong felt that there were many things in the development zone. The sales of the pot factory did not keep up, but the production could not be stopped.

This time, I went to six or seven counties. I not only went to all three counties and two cities in Shachang City, but also went to the counties and cities in the surrounding areas. I heard that it was the county magistrate to investigate. Although it was deputy, it also flattered the bosses of the daily miscellaneous wholesale department. Whether he is the deputy head of the county or not, he is always the deputy head of the county, right? There are not many people who can say a few words close to the deputy county magistrate in their life, so they will answer whatever Zhu Daidong asks. They know everything and say everything.

Several counties ran down and had a clear idea about the sluggish sales of iron pots. The sales of iron pots have a characteristic. The season is strong, and the sales festival is in the second half of the year, especially in the three or four months before the year. In order to get the goods, these dealers did not hesitate to bring their cars to pick

And these dealers also have opinions on the quality of the iron pot. "The quality of the iron pot in Yuhuā County Pot Factory is good, but it is too thick and too heavy to sell. Zhu Daidong is strange. Is good quality the reason for poor sales? Zhu Daidong has always been very strict about the quality of products, but this time it is not suitable for the pot factory.

Why? Because iron pots are mainly sold in rural areas, and the price of iron pots is not based on the price, but on weight. How much is an iron pot per catty? The same iron pot. The iron pot produced by Yuhuā County Pot Factory weighs more than one catty than that produced elsewhere. They are all iron pots. Yours are expensive. Of course, others don't want to buy them.

Whether the farmers are short-sighted or they only value the immediate interests, they only value the immediate interests. Anyway, they just recognize one and buy whoever is cheap? For them, a few cents a dollar, sometimes they need to hesitate for a long time. Moreover, the iron pot is thinner, the heat transfer is faster, and the cooking time is shorter. Therefore, they prefer a thin and light iron pot.

As for the service life, anyway, the old iron pot at home is broken. You can use it to make up the price difference and replace it with a new one. There is not a lot of money. In this way, it is strange that the iron pot in Yuhuā County can sell well in the off-season.

Back in the development zone, Zhu Daidong immediately found Ge Yanfu and asked him to improve the model. He wanted to make the iron pot thinner, that is to reduce the quality to sell better. This result made Ge Yanfu unable to figure it out. But I can't figure it out. Now it's a market economy, and everything is determined by market requirements.

In fact, the unsalable sales of the pot factory this time have a lot in common with the unsalable products of most state-owned enterprises. The products of many state-owned enterprises have an old appearance, thick ginger, and poor quality, but they can't compete with private enterprises and private enterprises. Why? Although the quality of the things they produce is worse, the price is much cheaper. Many state-owned enterprises have been dragged to death.

This caused Zhu Daidong to think deeply that the product should follow the market. Only by keeping up with the market needs will the product not be eliminated. When Ge Yanfu improved the model of the pot factory, Zhu Daidong held a joint meeting of middle-level cadres of the county agricultural machinery factory and county machinery company. Taking the pot factory as a case, Zhu Daidong analyzed the relationship between the product and the market to them. Resolute will only be disconnected from the enterprise and the market. The pot factory in the development zone seems to have passed the crisis because it changed its strategy in time and adjusted the product structure. But what about the county agricultural machinery factory and county machinery company that seem to be booming now?

This must attract our great attention! Zhu Daidong emphasized this point from time to time at the meeting. He asked the supply and marketing department of the county agricultural machinery factory and the county machinery company to add another function, market research function. It is necessary to send the feedback from users and dealers to the factory department in time, and the factory department should also establish a corresponding department to analyze and develop new products. Keep up with the market demand, so that the products of enterprises will never lag behind.

Zhu Daidong also specially reported this matter to Wang Lijun. Wang Lijun highly affirmed that Zhu Daidong personally did market research. It doesn't matter if he made a mistake. He is also a good comrade who can correct the mistake in time. Zhu Daidong said modestly that it was precisely because of the magistrate's attention that we could adjust the product structure in time. Wang Lijun asked again that the county fertilizer factory should also be stepped up to take action. Recently, someone reacted to him that the employees of the county fertilizer factory were a little unstable. Seeing that the agricultural machinery factory and machinery factory were starting one after another, and they were still in a state of shutdown, of course, they were anxious.

Zhu Daidong said that the matter of the fertilizer factory is more complicated, and it must be deepened and reformed. Only by working hard can we completely solve the problem. The fertilizer factory has 1,269 regular employees and 415 long-term temporary workers, but less than 600 are really on the front line of production. On the one hand, people are floating in trouble, and on the other hand, the income distribution still implements a fixed wage system, regardless of production and operation performance, monthly salary, and even an incredible strange phenomenon occurs. Young people in their 20s return home to get a 20% discount on their salary. If this situation is not completely changed, it is foreseeable that the fertilizer plant will not be able to operate no matter what mode of operation it takes.

Wang Lijun was also silent when he heard about the situation of the fertilizer factory. After a long time, he said slowly. The greater the difficulty of the fertilizer factory, the more we have to help solve it. What are the use of party members and cadres? It's just to solve the problem. Wang Lijun said earnestly that the county promoted you to deputy county magistrate. "Many people are not convinced. The county party committee and county government are under pressure on this matter. You have to make achievements for me. You must do something about the fertilizer factory this year.

Zhu Daidong smiled bitterly. The fertilizer factory used to be an enterprise with very good benefits, but now let's go and have a look. It's a dilapidated scene.

Zhu Daidong still remembers the situation when he went to the fertilizer factory in Furong County with his parents to pull fertilizer when he was a child. At that time, the fertilizer factory was so popular. In order to buy fertilizer, he had to queue up in the middle of the night. The spring is cold and hard in the middle of the night, in order to buy back a year's fertilizer. But in the current situation, with the increase of fertilizer production in other places, local fertilizer factories have begun to make difficult steps. Up to now, solving the salary of the fertilizer factory is a huge burden of the county government. It weighs on Wang Lijun year after year, which makes him out of breath.

Zhu Daidong spreads his hands and has no money. The county wants to let the horse run, and he doesn't give the horse grass. How can he do it? Wang Lijun laughed and scolded, "You are so powerful. What can't you borrow? Zhu Daidong smiled bitterly, "The county magistrate, borrow and return, and it is not difficult to borrow again. Now the old account has not been cleared, and you can borrow a new one. Isn't there such a rule?

Wang Lijun said that he didn't care. The county will leave the matter of the fertilizer factory to you. This is trust in you and a spur to you. If you have difficulties, you have to face the difficulties. How can you reflect the value of Zhu Daidong? Zhu Daidong said, how much support can the county give? Finance doesn't support it. You have to give me power in terms of personnel, right?

Wang Lijun said, what kind of support do you want? I will do my best to support you in policy and personnel. Zhu Daidong said that the leadership team of the fertilizer factory must be readjusted, and the train runs fast, all relying on the headband. The front of the fertilizer factory can no longer run. In this case, the only way is to replace the front of the car.

Yes, the adjustment of the leadership team in the county will listen to your opinions to the maximum extent. Wang Lijun pondered for a long time and nodded heavily. Zhu Daidong said, can the Huaiqing [book] of the Commission for Discipline Inspection set up a temporary team with me?

Are you going to make a big move? Wang Lijun asked with some surprise that if Zhu Daidong was not sure, he would not ask the Commission for Discipline Inspection to come forward. Chang Huaiqing's reputation is well known throughout the county, which is a killing god in the eyes of cadres. But now, Zhu Daidong asked Chang Huaiqing to cooperate with him, which shows that Zhu Daidong already has an idea.

It's impossible not to be serious about these people. Zhu Daidong sighed. Now Huang Hao, the director of the fertilizer factory, is in the county government. He doesn't come to report his work to his supervisor, but he likes to live on Wang Shengli's side.

You can run. Last year, the enterprise in the county was managed by Wang Shengli, but if you have bad intentions and even incite workers to make trouble, Zhu Daidong can't ignore it.

Huang Hao is reporting to Wang Shengli that the workers in the factory have been emotionally unstable during this period. If something happens, don't blame the county for not saying hello in advance. Wang Shengli said that Zhu Daidong is your supervisor now, and you should report to him. As soon as Huang Hao raised his neck, Deputy County Magistrate Zhu's eyes were on his forehead, and he couldn't see our fertilizer factory. Agricultural machinery factories and machinery factories are booming now, but what about our fertilizer factories? The salary given by the county has dropped again and again. Only 50% was paid last month, and it can be 40% this month, which is satisfactory.

When the fertilizer factory stopped production, Huang Hao did not actively find a way. Instead, he kidnapped all the employees of the factory in the big car of the fertilizer factory. Nearly 2,000 people in the big factory, the county actually sent a hairy boy to deal with it, which made him not convinced. Moreover, Zhu Daidong has been in office for such a long time, and the fertilizer factory often comes and has talked with the workers many times, but he has not been able to take practical action, which makes Huang Hao very dissatisfied.

Wang Shengli advised him that Zhu Daidong was a little younger, but he still had the ability. Didn't you see that the agricultural machinery factory and the machinery factory had survived? They can't help it, but they can't do anything about your fertilizer factory for the time being. Wang Shengli is not like persuading Huang Hao, but a little fanning.

Back to the fertilizer factory, Huang Hao called the main leaders of the factory for a meeting, saying that if the fertilizer factory did not make some noise, it would be impossible for the county to pay attention to the fertilizer factory. Now agricultural machinery factories and machinery factories can start again, and the salary is higher than before. Is our fertilizer factory raised by our mother? The fertilizer plant has made great contributions to the agricultural development of Yuhuā County.

That night, Zhu Daidong and Chang Huaiqing rushed to the fertilizer factory. Chang Huaiqing came to announce the order of the county party committee, and the county party committee decided to carry out double regulations on Huang Hao. Zhu Daidong held a meeting of the factory leaders again, saying that from today on, Zhu Daidong was going to Changsi Fertilizer Factory, which made the leaders of the fertilizer factory stunned. Ji Ge, who had just been discussed, died in the womb.
