Many people dream of working in this state-owned enterprise, and many people have many misunderstandings about this state-owned enterprise. For example, RMB is produced in prisons, and the workers are all reform-through-labour prisoners. In fact, this is completely nonsense. For another example, every country can produce money for itself. In fact, it is very difficult to produce money.
It is no exaggeration to say that printing money is no less difficult than making an atomic bomb. Besides, in China, printing money is a unique business of China Banknote Printing and Minting Corporation. Anyone who wants to be a competitor of this state-owned enterprise will be jailed in minutes.
Previously, the newspaper reported a case in Linyi, Shandong Province. A three-person counterfeit money gang tried to make a lot of counterfeit money. Because I didn't master the technology of hundred-dollar bills, I decided to start with 1 yuan coins, so I bought a machine and started working. It cost 6.5438+0.8 million yuan, and finally produced 6.5438+0.6 million counterfeit money. However, the three "Wolong Feng Chu" were directly captured by the local police before they could grieve.
This should start from the 1950s. At that time, China's scientific and technological strength was relatively weak, so that most of the large denominations in the second set of RMB were printed by the Soviet Union. Li Genxu, an expert from Beijing People's Printing Factory, sincerely asked the Soviets about printing technology, but the other side turned a deaf ear, bluntly saying that it was comparable to the atomic bomb technology, and China people could not master it. This remark deeply hurt Li Genxu, who made up his mind to break through this technology.
With the growing tension between China and the Soviet Union, the People's Bank of China reported to the State Council for instructions on replacing the new version of RMB 1959. After all, the Soviet Union has a sample of RMB. Once they print and issue paper money without authorization, the consequences will be unimaginable. At the end of 1960, with the efforts of Li Genxu's team, the first generation of domestic printing machines was born. 1962 China issues the third set of RMB.
Facts have proved that it is correct for China to master the independent printing coinage technology. After the tension between China and the Soviet Union, the Soviet Union did send a lot of "counterfeit money" to our border. Although they tried to paralyze China's economy, they failed in the end. In this process, Li Genxu's team and Beijing Banknote Printing Factory contributed greatly.
With the progress of the times, the emergence of RMB also keeps pace with the times. Beijing Banknote Printing Factory, the production enterprise behind RMB, has also become a super state-owned enterprise-China Banknote Printing and Minting Corporation. It is reported that China Banknote Printing and Minting Corporation is a small and micro enterprise with 100% of the shares held by the People's Bank of China, with total net assets of11400 million yuan. Today, there are as many as 30,000 employees in this enterprise.
Because this enterprise is so special, it has aroused a lot of people's curiosity, and even spread the funny saying that "RMB is printed by reform-through-labor prisoners". In fact, the Mint is a very serious enterprise, and many employees in it are serious college students, not reform-through-labor prisoners at all. China Banknote Printing and Minting Corporation has six banknote printing plants in China, which are located in Beijing, Shanghai, Chengdu, Xi, Shijiazhuang and Nanchang.
Many people think that the banknote printing factory only prints banknotes, but in fact it also prints anti-counterfeiting bills such as value-added tax tickets, checks, money orders and passbooks. In addition, the banknote printing and minting company has many international customers. According to statistics, China Banknote Printing and Minting Corporation has received printing orders from many countries, including Nepal, Sri Lanka, Thailand, India and Brazil. The fundamental reason is that the printing and coinage technology in China is very high in science and technology. This shows how powerful China Banknote Printing and Minting Corporation is. Seeing this, I asked you if you would like to work here.
Regrettably, with the development of mobile payment, such exquisite RMB cash is often "rejected". Many elderly people are used to using cash because they use old computers, don't understand mobile payment, and are worried about the security of scanning code payment. However, they are often refused cash by merchants. For young people, such embarrassing things often happen. Some merchants publicly stated that they can only use WeChat and Alipay and do not accept cash. This not only damages the legal status of RMB, but also damages people's right to choose payment methods.
The People's Bank of China once announced that RMB is the legal tender of China, and no unit or individual may refuse it. It is undeniable that mobile payments such as WeChat and Alipay have facilitated people's lives, but we cannot discriminate against cash. Technology is developing rapidly, but we might as well slow down and wait for the old people around us.
