In the rolling torrent of reform and opening up, Bu Xinsheng and the "Bu Xinsheng phenomenon" are a topic that cannot be bypassed.

"At that time, it was not easy to adhere to reform, and Bu Xinsheng, with his courage and boldness, used a small tailor scissors to cut the curtain of enterprise mechanism reform." Zhuang Hongze, 86, who served as party secretary of Jiaxing from 1983 to 1989, witnessed and supported the encouragement of Bu Xinsheng's reforms.

Zhuang Hongze said that during Bu Xinsheng's reform, he encountered many obstacles, but he was a bold, daring person, daring to make innovations, and understood tremendous pressure to carry out the reform to the end. "He is a meteor in the long river of history, and he has bloomed dazzling colors in the night sky."

Bu Xinsheng was born into a family of tailors. During his acquaintance with Bu Xinsheng, Zhuang Hongze called him "Little Tailor".

The "little tailor" is shabby and new

From raw material processing to brand creation

The predecessor of Haiyan Shirt Factory was a sewing cooperative organized in 1956, which belonged to the urban collective enterprise according to ownership status. At that time, the main business was the processing of incoming materials, hats, accounts, etc., and there were only more than 60 employees in the factory. After the reform and opening up, the factory director Bu Xinsheng began to seek the road of enterprise development, he set his sights on Shanghai, and cooperated with several factories to seek the market. He threw off the crutch of commercial underwriting and switched from comprehensive service processing to professional production of shirts. In 1977, Bu Xinsheng realized that "relying on the brand can be passed down, relying on the relationship to collapse", so he decided to create a brand belonging to the Haiyan Shirt General Factory.

"He feels that the efficiency of the factory is not good, and a big reason is that the employees eat a big pot of rice." Zhuang Hongze said: Therefore, Bu Xinsheng unveiled a set of reform systems, straightened out the factory style, clearly distinguished rewards and punishments, settled according to the actual number of labor, and did not cap the bonus, did not guarantee the bottom, and the cauldron of rice was gone.

"Employee attendance is more than 98 percent, and everyone wants to make a name for themselves." Zhuang Hongze said.

Haiyan Shirt Factory has also changed from the original single production type to production and operation type, from the passive situation of completely relying on underwriting to holding the initiative, "created its own brand, the business continued to expand, in 1983 the factory staff increased to more than 600, this factory has become a first-class professional shirt factory in Zhejiang, the products sell well in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and other big cities." ”

With the expansion of the business of Haiyan Shirt General Factory and the best-selling products, the factory has become the first enterprise in Haiyan County with an output value of more than 10 million.

"Reform stars" have become a hot spot in the media

In 1983, a Xinhua reporter learned about the controversial director of the Haiyan Shirt Factory. The reporter was very interested in Bu Xinsheng and wrote an internal reference to Bu Xinsheng's reform. At that time, after seeing the internal reference, the state leader noticed this "problem figure" and wrote a paragraph affirming Bu Xinsheng's reform.

Subsequently, Xinhua News Agency turned the internal reference into a newsletter for public publication. As a result, Bu Xinsheng's deeds went to the whole country. Subsequently, a number of media rushed to report that Bu Xin had generated a well-known "reform star" in the country. For a time, many people went to Haiyan Shirt Factory to visit and study.

"When many times, nearly 10,000 people asked to come a day, and at that time, Bu Xinsheng told me that the number of visitors was too large to take care of." Zhuang Hongze said that he hoped that Bu Xinsheng would wholeheartedly do a good job in reform and not be distracted by propaganda. Therefore, he came up with an idea for Bu Xin, recording the reform experience on a tape recorder, and when people came to visit and did not have time to come forward to introduce, the receptionist played the recording to the visitors.

In this way, Bu Xinsheng can concentrate on production and focus on the performance of the shirt factory.

At that time, some cadres said that Bu Xinsheng was practicing capitalism. To this end, the Jiaxing Municipal Party Committee decided to resolutely promote reform and support Bu Xinsheng's reform. In order to promote Bu Xinsheng's reform practices, the municipal party committee summed up the reform experience and actively publicized it.

The Jiaxing Municipal Party Committee actively eliminates resistance

"1983 and 1984 were the two most controversial years of Bu Xinsheng's reform." Zhuang Hongze said that at that time, when Bu Xinsheng said that he was under great pressure, he encouraged Bu Xinsheng not to be afraid, and the municipal party committee and municipal government all supported the reform, "I joked with him, it was a big deal to go home and be a small tailor." ”

"I went to Haiyan County with the then mayor of Jiaxing to preach to several sets of leading bodies in the county and party members and cadres throughout the county about the spirit of support for Bu Xinsheng's reform by the leaders of the central and provincial party committees, and to publicize the results achieved by Bu Xinsheng's reform and innovation." Zhuang Hongze said that in 1984, a total of four congresses were held, the municipal party committee and the municipal government showed their attitude, the pressure of public opinion gradually decreased, Bu Xinsheng's waist board hardened, and the momentum of reform became even stronger.

Bu Xinsheng is the first person in the reform of urban enterprises, he broke the equal distribution system, achieved a clear distinction between rewards and punishments, and created a set of lively working methods.

"Bu Xinsheng is a very active person, he set November 6 as the factory celebration day, and also wrote a factory song with the staff." Zhuang Hongze said that Bu Xinsheng also held a celebration ceremony for employees under the circumstances of employees getting married, having children, children going to school, and employee retirement, which greatly improved the enthusiasm of employees. It also carries out amateur cultural troupes and fashion show teams to enrich the cultural life of employees. At the same time, the selection of talents is also eclectic, boldly using young, idealistic, skilled employees.

In Zhuang Hongze's view, Bu Xinsheng's reform ideas apply not only to state-owned enterprises, but also to other enterprises, which is of universal significance. "Bu Xinsheng is the first person to reform urban enterprises, and facts have proved that only reform can develop, and we should all carry out the reform to the end."
