The strike is spreading not only from coastal areas to inland areas, but also from foreign companies to state-owned enterprises.

Last week,

Northwest textile

The two largest textile factories in Xianyang, Shaanxi Province, have been on strike, involving nearly 10000 workers. The two factories are northwest second cotton Co., Ltd. (formerly the second cotton textile factory in the northwest of the country) and the Xianyang Huarun Textile Co., Ltd. (the original seventh cotton textile mill in the northwest of the country).

At present, the workers of both companies have returned to work.

It is reported that the management of the company has agreed to the workers' salary increase requirements, of which the average wage of the northwest cotton workers has increased by about 140 yuan, and the wage increase of another company is still unknown.

According to a veteran worker of Northwest cotton, the salary in the factory has been in the middle for over 30 years, with a monthly salary of more than 900 yuan, and "actually get 800 hands."

It is said that the strike started last Monday.

The textile workers of the two companies went on strike in July 5th and July 7th respectively. During the period, the management of the company promised a raise of 60 yuan per person's wages, but it was not satisfied with the workers.

The final plan is to raise per capita wages by about 140 yuan.

Xianyang is China's "

During the construction of the northwest textile base, many new China's "miracles" were born. The Northwest China national cotton factory was born in the name of the "Zhao Mengtao group" named after the national model worker Zhao Mengtao. It was famous throughout the country. Wu Guixian, a textile worker in the factory, served as vice premier of the State Council in the 70s of last century. The famous director Zhang Yimou also came from the northwest eight national cotton factory.

But after the reform and opening up, along with the vigorous development of the coastal textile industry, the local textile industry has gone from bad to worse, and some companies have been forced to restructure or carry out policy bankruptcy in order to "get rid of historical baggage and bank debts".

There is no way to know where these "historical baggage" come from.

As a result, the fact that the local textile workers have been treated at a low level has long existed. According to the workers, a monthly salary of eight hundred or nine hundred yuan has been considered a relatively good standard. "Some young people who have just entered the office get four hundred or five hundred yuan a month."

"Jiangsu sunshine" and other coastal textile companies were originally excavated from the national cotton mill in Xianyang.

"A talented person", a private business owner close to the senior officials of Xianyang, said, "Xianyang has a good location advantage and industrial foundation. The textile industry is now what it looks like. In the final analysis, it is a part of the system and concept of state-owned enterprises. Leaders are not responsible for it and do not carry out technological pformation. The product stays at the most elementary stage and the profit margin is very low."

At present, there are a large number of private textile factories in Qianxian County and other places in Xianyang, which are said to have good production and operation, and the treatment of workers is significantly higher than those of these state-owned enterprises.
