Qin Shujie is familiar with the domestic organizational structure and is familiar with Sanshui County. Of course, she knows who is in charge of Sanshui County.

Why go through a microphone? No matter who you talk to, the final decision is made by the secretary and the county magistrate.

Since the county magistrate is her brother-in-law, she must avoid suspicion, so of course she would contact Qin Kunlun directly.

The fact that Song Jiefang and Qin Shujie are related cannot be concealed, and there is no need to hide it. It is not a shameful scandal. Song Jiefang has long publicly admitted it at the Standing Committee.

No one talks nonsense or gossips. The reason is very simple. "Huameifeng" has been a successful joint venture since Jiang Xiaojuan took office and has nothing to do with Song Jiefang.

It was the spring of 1985, and Qin Shujie attracted US$1.16 million in foreign capital. The "Huamei Feng" joint venture was successful and became the first Sino-US joint venture in Yangzhou.

Qin Shujie took the initiative to attract foreign businessmen to invest in Sanshui County. The county leaders all believed that it was because of former secretary Shen Jianhua.

However, Qin Shujie, the capital agent, seemed to have a soft spot for Sanshui County, and two years later she brought in US$3 million in Hong Kong capital to establish the "Sanhui Group".

With the world's most advanced canning production line, the taste determined by Huang Han after many tastings, and the conscientious formula with a pork content of no less than 30%, the quality of "Sanhui" ham sausage is of the highest quality.

Nowadays, the marketing situation of "Sanhui Group" is gratifying. This year it is expected to achieve revenue of 50 million, and next year the goal is to maintain 80 million and strive for 100 million.

Although "Sanhui Group" is controlled by a Hong Kong businessman, the Sanshui County Government and the food company jointly hold 42% of the shares, so they do not suffer at all.

The leading cadres of Sanshui County are proud because since 1981, the economic growth rate of Sanshui County has not been less than 25%.

But they began to marvel at Qin Shujie's abilities and felt ashamed.

The first time we discussed the joint venture to establish "Huameifeng", Qin Shujie attracted more than one million U.S. dollars of foreign capital for non-controlling purposes, accounting for 46% of the shares.

The second time was different. The investment amount was as high as three million US dollars to establish the "Sanhui Group", accounting for 58% of the shares and directly controlling it.

This period was even more remarkable. From the very beginning, he was prepared to invest tens of millions of dollars in equipment, with the goal of integrating the seven largest textile factories in Sanshui County.

How to explain this? Why didn't Qin Shujie bring foreign and Hong Kong businessmen to Suzhou, where Shen Jianhua worked before? There is more room for development there close to Shanghai.

Or wouldn't it be better to go directly to Shanghai, where Shen Jianhua currently works?

Originally, too many cadres couldn't understand why Ms. Qin only set her sights on Sanshui County? Now they all automatically figured it out, maybe it was because Song Jiefang came to Sanshui County to be the county magistrate.

It's all fate! Sanshui County seems to have a special fate with this Ms. Qin.

A few years after the secretary's brother-in-law was promoted and transferred, another brother-in-law came to serve as county magistrate.

The reason why my sister-in-law helps her brother-in-law when she can is reasonable, and most of the cadres are relieved.

For a time, the story of Qin Shujie and Sanshui County became an anecdote.

For this reason, Song Jiefang was often teased by his superiors, asking him how many sisters-in-law there were. At this critical moment of attracting investment, resources must not be wasted and full potential must be tapped.

Alas! Song Jiefang could only look up to the sky and sigh. He only had one sister-in-law and one sister-in-law. They were all in trouble with Sanshui County. It was just a coincidence.

The national conditions at this time were different. The Eight Immortals were advocated to cross the sea and each show their magical powers. Cadres and the masses were encouraged to seek overseas connections to seek Taiwanese businessmen and Hong Kong businessmen to invest in the mainland.

In addition, this summer, Taiwan lifted martial law and its relations with the mainland have greatly improved. People-to-people exchanges and business exchanges have become much easier.

Too many separated family members from both sides of the Taiwan Strait have started looking for relatives. Of course, due to the huge disparity in economic levels, the vast majority are Taiwanese who come to the mainland to look for relatives.

It’s not that mainlanders are cold and don’t value family ties, it’s that poverty restricts the expression of emotions.

Because with the average economic level of people in China at this time, it would not be enough to go to Hong Kong, buy a plane ticket, go across the Taiwan Strait and stay for a few days, and completely bankrupt the family.

In the past few months, Sanshui County has also attracted more than two dozen Taiwanese people seeking relatives. For this purpose, the county has also set up a reception office for Taiwan compatriots, Hong Kong and Macao overseas Chinese.

At the beginning, the mainland always believed that Taiwanese compatriots were relatively wealthy, and the leaders of Sanshui County also misunderstood this and considered whether they could be persuaded to invest in their hometown.

Later, after having more contact with them, I realized that the vast majority of Taiwan compatriots live on wages, and not all of them are business owners or factory owners.

Anyway, among the more than two dozen Taiwanese people who visited relatives in Sanshui County in 1987, none of them had a big boss, but their economic conditions were indeed much better than those of their mainland relatives.

Basically, I gave large color TV sets, radio cassette players, refrigerators and other household appliances to my relatives in mainland China.

The dozen or so cadres of the Taiwan Compatriots' Office are all workers in the 40s and 50s. They are full of confidence and hope that they can negotiate a Taiwan-funded enterprise to settle in the Sanshui County Economic Development Zone.

However, contrary to expectations, none of the Taiwanese who came to Sanshui County to find relatives was a boss.

However, the staff of the Taiwan Compatriots Office persevered. They enthusiastically introduced the investment environment and preferential policies of Sanshui County, hoping that these Taiwan compatriots could help promote it after they return.

Sanshui County has always attached great importance to publicity. For this reason, it not only published a promotional poster similar to "Popular Films", but also edited a one-hour promotional video tape using videos from the past few years, named "Sanshui Welcomes You".

The Taiwanese compatriots felt the enthusiasm of the people in their hometown, and they all stated that they would try their best to help promote Sanshui County after going there.

They don't just deal with it casually, but really want to attract investment for their hometown.

The Taiwanese compatriots expressed this attitude not only because of the warm reception they received, but also because after hearing and witnessing these days, they truly believe that Sanshui County is developing particularly well and has a high economic level, almost catching up with ordinary counties in Taiwan.

What they like most is that agricultural and sideline products in Sanshui County are particularly cheap, there are no gangsters, gangs, and good public security, which is much better than in counties in Taiwan.

After all, Sunan Province was where the capital was at that time, and many people followed the defeated Kuomintang to the other side of the Taiwan Strait.

There must be more than two dozen in Sanshui County.

As a result, publicity began to be broadcast on the radio and television to let the people put aside their worries and actively seek relatives. Even if there was a murder before the retreat, the government would ignore it.

Tsk tsk! This is just a smile at the meeting and the grudges are gone!

People who had nothing to do with it just wanted to hear it, but many of their relatives disappeared before liberation, and hope was ignited in the hearts of those who had not heard from them since.

The propaganda was so effective that in just one week, the Taiwan Compatriots Office received dozens of families who took the initiative to report who and who in their family had followed the Kuomintang troops.

Some remember the serial number, while others cannot remember anything at all, and they are not sure whether their loved ones died on the battlefield or on the way to escape.

For a time, Sanshui County formed a craze for seeking intimacy!

This is exactly the same as Huang Han's memory. It was in this year that Huang Han's family bought a 14-inch black and white TV.

By this time, Huang Han had been working for a year, and his family's economic conditions had improved a lot. Even so, he only bought a second-hand car for 230 yuan.

This is the time when compatriots from Taiwan came to Sanshui County to look for relatives.

It was a neighbor who received a large color TV set as a gift from a relative in Taiwan. The black and white TV set at home could no longer be used. Huang Han went to bargain for the price, gave the neighbor 230 yuan, and took the TV set back.

It can be seen that Huang Han was also stupid at that time. When he got money, the first thing he thought of was to buy a TV and a bicycle.

During the period of seeking intimacy, the partner will talk about the family's overseas connections in order to gain points.

It’s totally different from talking about tigers a few years ago!

Alas! Times always like to joke with people.

At that time, it was because of overseas connections that I wore a high hat and fought. Now, it is still because of overseas connections that I am sought after.

What a misfortune and blessing, God knows!

Dean Luo and Teacher Qiu were old classmates and were about the same age, so they knew each other well. The story of finding their relatives had become a hot topic. Of course, he realized that overseas relations were no longer a historical issue.

He went to Teacher Qiu specifically to persuade her to find a way to find her relatives.

Teacher Qiu didn't listen to the advice and just replied, if he hadn't died, he would definitely have found me. It's not like he didn't recognize where I lived!

…

It is a consensus that the textile industry in Sanshui County needs imported equipment for industrial upgrading, and the price has been consulted through multiple channels.

It doesn't matter if you don't ask. The more detailed the consultation, the more shocking it will be.

Why? As the RMB depreciates against the US dollar and the yen appreciates, the price of imported equipment becomes even higher.

Of course, the depreciation of the RMB is not reflected in the international exchange rate. At this time, the exchange rate of the RMB against the US dollar is not in line with international standards, and the exchange rate is under direct control by the state.

The official exchange rate of the U.S. dollar in 1987 only increased by about 10% compared to 1986. The current foreign exchange rate is one U.S. dollar to a few RMB 3.70.

However, there is a but! If you want to use this exchange rate to exchange for U.S. dollars, you have to be really awesome.

However, "Full Force Enterprise" exists, not because it is awesome, but because of its "gorgeous style" support.

Trolley suitcases, travel bags, briefcases, backpacks, satchels, waist bags, etc. In the past two years, Huang Han has designed many new styles based on the memories of later generations.

Qin Shujie helped apply for many appearance patents and design patents. Now, "Feng Brand" bags are best-selling in Europe and the United States. It is not an exaggeration to describe them.

Although Huang Han and Qin Shujie used Hong Kong trading companies to retain more than half of their profits, they could not affect the settlement of foreign exchange.

Therefore, "Huamei Style" has a lot of foreign exchange.

Foreign exchange should be handed over to the state. This is a regulation and power of the superior department.

However, the country's foreign exchange should also be allocated to units in real need, which is also an obligation.

Whether rights and obligations can be equal depends on where they come from.

"Huameifeng" and "Full Force Enterprise" are both large units in Sanshui County with an output value of over 100 million yuan or about to exceed 200 million yuan.

Moreover, they are two star companies that are often inspected by senior leaders.

Now the question arises, how much foreign exchange does one family earn and how much foreign exchange does one family need?

The key question is that Sanshui County has the aura of "daring to be the first in the world". What should the higher-level departments do? Do they dare to fight?

The leadership team of Sanshui County is highly unanimous on this issue. We should enjoy the priority to use foreign exchange when we earn foreign exchange.

Without sufficient foreign exchange, we will definitely not be able to buy imported compressors, and it will be impossible for "Full Power Enterprise" to achieve its goal of achieving revenue of 400 million next year, and it will live up to the ardent hope of the big leaders to "dare to be the first in the world."

Hey! The cadres in Sanshui County are very tough! Of course, the higher-level departments cannot be arbitrary.

It is necessary to take a step back through friendly negotiation. In the end, 60% of the foreign exchange earned by "Huameifeng" can be allocated to "Full Force Enterprise" for the purpose of importing compressors.

That's all. It's like a pipe dream to approve another 20 to 30 million US dollars for the industrial upgrading of "Dongfanghong Cloth Factory".
