Wool Mill: Rebirth Of A Northeast Old State Owned Enterprise

In the process of change, the fate of an individual is more impressive.

Under the call of revitalizing the old industrial base in Northeast China, they are looking forward to new life.

In 1978, he returned to the countryside when he was 21 years old. He entered the wool mill and became a state-owned worker. At the end of the year, he started reform and opening up.

In 2008, he was 51 years old as director of the wool mill workshop for four years, a private enterprise cadre.

Xie Qingchao arrived in Huadian, Jilin, and became an educated youth.

In 1978, enterprises went to rural areas to recruit workers for educated youth.

"It's a good performance. If you do well, you'll go back to town early, and you'll be late if you don't perform well."

Xie Qingchao returned to the city in the unified recruitment of state-owned enterprises. He became a truck driver of the former Jilin wool mill and became a maintenance worker half a year later.

"At that time, the production line was the four production line. I was mainly arranging shifts and specific production.

At that time, wages went up very frequently, and it was really the gold (185,1.76,0.96%, bar) period of state-owned enterprises.

When I first joined the work, Xie Qingchao took the apprenticeship salary, which was 25 yuan per month.

By the 80s national wage reform, wages had risen to more than 70, and soon increased to more than 100, more than 200.

In 90s, Xie Qingchao expanded his management scope and began to manage a whole workshop to become a production scheduling.

Bonuses began to appear in his wages, and the standard of bonus payment was mainly based on their grades and duties.

But the wool mill located in the central part of the northeast old industrial base is still very calm.

At that time, those who went to the sea needed to stay in the post without pay. "But there are very few people in the factory who have no pay, and those who go to sea are seen earlier and farther."

The workers in woollen mills are limited by technology, and there are not many "go to sea". They usually go to the wool mills in the south to continue their old business, and their incomes are much higher than those in state-owned enterprises.

But state owned wool mills are beset by obsolete, redundant internal systems and overstaffing problems, with low efficiency, declining product quality and fewer orders.

"In 90s, we carried out two reorganization."

"Restructuring is a kind of shelling". Xie Qingchao described the reorganization of the state-owned factory with more than 3000 people, registered a new name, adjusted personnel, laid off a batch, retired a batch, and retired a batch.

After every reorganization, the efficiency of the factory will be improved. "But after a year and a half, it will not work again."

At that time, the state encouraged exports, but we had to get quotas to export. "

In 2002, because of the management problems affecting production and the heavy burden of enterprises, the Mao Gang factory began unable to pay wages to employees.

The operation of the factory is entirely supported by government loans.

In 2003, the plan to revitalize the old industrial base in Northeast China began to be implemented.

In 2004 and 2005, factories were basically shut down and workers began to take off.

Restructuring has been put on the agenda.

The workers in the wool mill have to face the "labor pains" accompanied by the restructuring, which is the biggest problem.

In the past two years, the municipal government has made many investment promotion for wool mills. However, due to objections to staff arrangement, treatment and factory production direction, investment has not been successful.

During the period, the workers interviewed and prosecuted various kinds of questions and even hung out protests at the door of the municipal government.

"Especially older workers are the most resistant to restructuring." they have a heavy family burden, a single technology, a low level of culture, and are old enough to retire soon.

"Moreover, many elderly workers are mentally unbalanced, and they feel that they have lost their sense of security when they lose their status as a state employee.

Because it is a large factory for many years, many employees are not only working in factories, but also spouses of their children and even their children are working in a factory.

Laid-off directly threatens the economic backbone of the family.

Their voices are particularly strong among many people who resist reform.

"Some people feel that the factory is restructured, and the laid-off workers are required for the general trend." arms are not enough for thighs, "so we might as well take their lives as early as possible.

In his employees there is a worker, I am more than 40, the technology is general, but in the face of laid-off do not quarrel, do not worry, and feel free to open farms in the countryside, "a few years? Script src=>
