There are three main things that Wu Ping wants to discuss with Niu Xiaoqiang today, one is when the news of Niu Dazhuang's promotion should be released, the other is the land planning of two foreign-funded projects, and finally the expansion of the technical school.

There is currently only one technical school in the whole Hope New Area, which was originally dedicated to serving the 311 factory, and after the bankruptcy of the 311 factory, Niu Xiaoqiang directly annexed the technical school and became the talent training base under the jurisdiction of the Asian Machinery Factory.

At present, there are only more than 400 students left in the entire technical school, and the rest of the students have all been recruited into various factories. Wu Ping feels that if the scale of the technical school is not expanded, it will definitely not be able to meet the expanding demand for labor in the future. Especially those who have a certain amount of technology, there will definitely be a serious shortage.

In order to solve this problem, and at the same time to encourage more parents to send their children to school, Wu Ping said: "Xiaoqiang, can the scale of the technical school be expanded? The current scale is obviously unable to meet the subsequent employment needs, and if you do not prepare in advance, it will definitely affect the subsequent development of your master's factories." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang has long been aware of this problem and is brewing an expansion plan.

Hearing Wu Ping's request at this moment, Niu Xiaoqiang couldn't help but ask: "Sister Ping, how much do you think it is more appropriate to expand the scale of the technical school?"

The technical school must be expanded, but Niu Xiaoqiang is a little unsure about how much to expand.

The reason is very simple: Expanding the scale of the technical school means that the number of students in the technical school will definitely increase, and the reason why these students enter the technical school is not to find a good job in the future? If the scale is expanded too much, the number of students will also increase a lot, and if the factory does not need so many workers at that time, how should these extra students be arranged?

If this problem is not dealt with properly, it is easy to cause conflicts, and if students and parents make a fuss, it will not end so well.

Wu Ping is also clear about this, she smiled: "I think the scale of the technical school should at least double the existing basis, if you are worried that there are too many students and cannot be arranged, the district can help you solve some of them." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang was curious: "How can it be solved in the district?"

"Hope Farm is expanding rapidly, the canneries are also doing well, and we are going to expand this year, and I am also planning to expand the scale of pig farming, and these three projects can solve the employment needs of hundreds of people in a year, to say the least, and if they develop better in the future, I can also provide more jobs." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang secretly calculated in his heart: at present, motorcycle factories, oil extraction machine factories, steel mills and machinery processing factories need to recruit new workers to enrich them, according to the report of the heads of the four factories, they need to recruit a total of more than 350 people, if you add Asia Machinery Factory, Haisen Electronics, As well as the TV accessories factory that is being built, the labor demand will definitely exceed 800 people, and there are only more than 400 students left in the technical school, which is obviously not enough, but if the enrollment scale is tripled, the number of students recruited each year will exceed 1,000 people, according to this number, it is equivalent to providing 1,000 new jobs every year.

Thinking of this, he nodded happily: "I agree with Sister Ping's plan to expand the enrollment, but I also have other ideas." ”

Wu Ping was curious: "Do you have any other ideas?"

Niu Xiaoqiang smiled slightly: "The number of enrollments in technical schools every year is not constant, I will determine the number of enrollments according to the estimated employment demand, otherwise once it exceeds the capacity, it will cause a lot of trouble, if the number of enrollments is flexibly formulated, this hidden danger can be well solved, what do you think?"

Wu Ping frowned: "Now there are thousands of junior high school graduates in the district every year, if the technical school doesn't eat them all, what will happen to these junior high school graduates? Once the employment prospects of junior high school graduates are not clear enough, those parents will definitely not support their children to go to school, which in turn will affect the education career in our district, Xiaoqiang, can you come up with a better solution?"

The two people look at the problem from different angles, which is why there is a difference of opinion. Niu Xiaoqiang knew that Wu Ping attached great importance to the education cause in the district, and in order to help Wu Ping solve this problem, he pondered for a moment and then spoke: "Otherwise, as long as there is a labor gap, anyone who has obtained a junior Chinese certificate can give priority to work than those with a lower level of education, and arrange relatively better positions, so that parents should not let their children drop out of school, right?"

Wu Ping is still not very satisfied with this: "What should I do if the employment gap does not appear?"

Niu Xiaoqiang smiled and shook his head: "No, according to my estimates, at the latest in five years, the joint venture project between Asia Machinery Factory and Packard Automobile Company will generate at least thousands or even tens of thousands of jobs. ”

Wu Ping was shocked and said, "Why are you so sure?"

Niu Xiaoqiang stretched out his finger and poked Wu Ping's head: "Have you forgotten what I told you when I first returned to China? At that time, I said that the investment of Packard Automobile Company is divided into several stages, at this stage it is technical cooperation, limited capital investment, and the subsequent expansion of production scale with the increase of market scale, the automobile manufacturing industry is a labor-intensive industry, and it is not easy to provide thousands of jobs at that time?"

Wu Ping finally thought about it, she said embarrassedly: "I have a lot of things to deal with recently, I forgot about this, I remember what you told me at the time...... What's the cluster effect, right?"

Niu Xiaoqiang nodded: "Yes, I did tell you about the cluster effect at the time, as long as the joint venture factory can develop steadily, those spare parts suppliers will take the initiative to open factories around the joint venture factory, which will greatly save transportation costs, better and faster to provide products for the upstream leading enterprises, so that they can earn more money, a car spare parts subdivided down to more than 10,000, the joint venture factory will only produce such as engines, The most core parts such as gearbox and chassis, those less core parts will all be purchased from outside, even so, it can feed at least dozens of spare parts suppliers, think about it yourself, how big will the labor gap be in dozens of factories?"

Wu Pingjiao said with a smile: "According to the calculation of the number of workers of 100 people in a factory, dozens of factories can provide at least thousands of jobs, which is still a small calculation, and if it is more, it is not a problem to provide 10,000 or 20,000 jobs!"
