So now that Fang Xiaoyue proposed to build two-stroke gasoline engines and three-wheeled motorcycles, they really didn't dare to object randomly. At most, they timidly suggested that all workers in the factory hope to have a good year and have more money.
But under Fang Xiaoyue's insistence, the proposal to reduce New Year's goods was finally passed.
As soon as this proposal was passed, Fang Xiaoyue became the ancestor of the agricultural machinery factory who had been scolded for almost eighteen generations.
But no matter how the cadres and employees protested, the New Year's goods they got were always cut a lot.
Seeing that the agricultural machinery factory was almost shrouded in Fang Xiaoyue's intimidation, those who originally wanted to transfer back quickly gave up the idea. As for those who wanted to transfer, there were even more people because they heard that the agricultural machinery factory would implement piecework next year. system, and reduce the number of cadres, etc.
For those guys who are idle every day, waiting for their wages, the piece rate system undoubtedly hits their mark.
If the piece rate system is really implemented, people like them who don't work very much all year round, even if they go to work, I'm afraid the wages they can get will be pitiful.
Under such circumstances, their only way out is to be transferred to a factory that has not yet implemented the piece-rate system.
Of course, if you want to transfer them at this time, the cost will be a bit high.
After the New Year, the number of cadres and workers in the agricultural machinery factory dropped by a full third!
Although there are still some sneaky guys, the overall situation is much better than before.
In the next two years, Fang Xiaoyue designed a two-stroke gasoline engine while taking the backbone of the agricultural machinery factory to major automobile factories for further study.
Well, to be precise, he copied the two-stroke gasoline engine from his own world.
Compared with the existing two-stroke gasoline engines in China, the new two-stroke gasoline engine he designed has a smaller displacement, but has high efficiency, no weak horsepower, and is also fuel-efficient.
With a two-stroke gasoline engine as the core, the three-wheeled motorcycle that Fang Xiaoyue had previously thought of was officially approved at the agricultural machinery factory.
The reason why we chose three-wheeled motorcycles is because Zhaoyang County and even nearby areas are hilly areas. To put it simply, the transportation is underdeveloped, there are few standard roads, and most of the places connecting the county and towns are full of potholes. The gravel road becomes muddy when it rains.
In Fang Xiaoyue's world, three-wheeled motorcycles are called cargo three-wheelers, which are fuel vehicles that are made up of a motorcycle and a cargo bucket.
This thing can be called an artifact for rural transportation. It usually carries half a ton, but many vehicles take the initiative to load one or two tons.
It travels on country roads, is maneuverable and flexible, and avoids some disadvantages of trucks.
Of course, the most important thing is that this thing is cheap!
In Fang Xiaoyue's world, a tricycle costs only three to four thousand, which is definitely cheap compared to a small truck that can easily cost three to four thousand.
In short, in rural areas, you can often see three-wheelers that can carry more than a ton of grain and still run fast. Even in many counties, the bosses who wholesale grain, oil, rice and noodles first choose these three-wheelers when delivering goods. .
If there is any agricultural vehicle that sells best, it should be this one.
Fang Xiaoyue just wants to use this agricultural vehicle with a simple structure and durability to completely turn over the agricultural machinery factory.
With the foundation left by the sales of Guatuo tractors in the past two years, agricultural machinery factories are also willing to spend money on purchasing some equipment.
With better equipment, mass production of cargo tricycles will undoubtedly be much easier.
As the three-wheel cargo truck rolled off the assembly line, the reputation of the agricultural machinery factory skyrocketed again.
The tricycle, which can be purchased at only one-tenth the price of a small truck, quickly became popular in Zhaoyang County and spread rapidly to rural areas.
In less than three months, Huosanwun has become the best-selling agricultural machinery in supply and marketing cooperatives everywhere.
Although Guotuo tractors are still booming, various brigades have purchased cargo tricycles and regard them as important means of transportation.
Some crab-eating villagers even bought them privately and used them for transportation.
They sell everything from lasa to food. What's more, they sell tickets in every town and town, and use three-wheeled goods to pull villagers rushing to the county town, or move between towns.
After installing armrests, a tricycle can carry more than ten people, and there are still people hanging outside, which is shocking to people.
During this period, many accidents occurred because there were too many people pretending to be there.
For this reason, the traffic management department has specially carried out comprehensive management of this problem and vigorously cracked down on this illegal and unlicensed passenger transport.
But even so, it did not affect the strong sales of agricultural machinery factories.
Less than a year after the three-wheeled cargo became a hit, Fang Xiaoyue developed the Zhaoyang brand motorcycle with a two-stroke gasoline engine.
Once this kind of motorcycle, which imitated advanced foreign models, was launched, it did not sell very well in the county.
This made the opposition in the agricultural machinery factory think they had seized an opportunity, but just when they wanted Xiaoyue to launch a counterattack, Zhaoyang motorcycles became very popular among young people in the nearby Haoshui City.
Within a few days, the roar of motorcycles could be heard everywhere in Haoshui City.
Wearing bell-bottom pants, wearing toad glasses, and a shaggy haircut, a young man appears in the square carrying a tape recorder, which will attract the envious eyes of countless young people.
There is no doubt that in this era, this look is tall, rich and handsome!
But when they rode motorcycles with a girl behind them, who was holding a tape recorder, and whizzed past the street, the effect was even more intense.
Fang Xiaoyue, who went to Haoshui City to check the sales and after-sales situation, couldn't help but feel a little jealous when she saw this scene.
But for the young people here, this is fashion, this is fashion, this is cool!
Among the three products launched by Fang Xiaoyue, the Zhaoyang motorcycle is the most popular and the most widely sold.
The Guotuo tractor, for example, is popular in rural areas of the county. No matter how far away it is, it is troublesome to deliver it. And with the rapid development of the economy, gasoline and diesel are no longer controlled substances. As long as you have money, you can buy them. arrive.
This also makes it difficult for Guotuo tractors, which are underpowered and troublesome to maintain, to expand outward.
As for cargo three-wheelers, it's okay, at least they sell well within the prefecture-level city of Haoshui City.
But if you go to other regions and cities, it will take time to promote the sales of three-wheelers. After all, Zhaoyang County Agricultural Machinery Factory is not well-known in these places, and customers still have more concerns about product quality and so on.
On the contrary, this Zhaoyang brand motorcycle just hits the itch of fashionable men and women.
These days, having a bicycle is nothing, only having a motorcycle is cool!
But the problem is that there are basically no domestically produced motorcycles. The motorcycles on the market are imported from abroad, are expensive, and can only be purchased in big cities such as Shanghai.
In Haoshui City and several other nearby prefecture-level cities, although the fashionable men and women have relatively wealthy families, if they spend so much money to buy a foreign motorcycle in Shanghai, they will probably be beaten to death by their father.
Therefore, the cheap and high-quality Zhaoyang brand motorcycles became a prop for them to show off their fashion.
What's more, this motorcycle is indeed convenient, faster than a bicycle, and easy to drive.
As a result, the sales of Zhaoyang motorcycles increased exponentially in a short period of time.
Fifty vehicles were sold within the city of Haoshui in the first three months. In the following three months, the business quickly expanded to several nearby prefecture-level cities, and sales surged to 300 vehicles.
In the next six months, those sellers came to block the gate of the agricultural machinery factory with cash boxes.
As soon as a motorcycle comes off the assembly line, someone will immediately withdraw cash.
For this reason, the agricultural machinery factory had to expand production again and purchased two new production lines from a certain machinery factory.
With the new production line put in, the agricultural machinery factory will not have enough manpower.
Fortunately, technical technical schools are very popular these days. Their graduates are far from those students in later generations who play games with friends every day. The quality is still very good. After recruiting them to study with the masters for a month, they are almost ready to operate online.
However, the domestic production lines are really rough, and even if they are used to produce two-stroke motorcycles, some problems will occur from time to time.
This forced Fang Xiaoyue to squat in the workshop for a long time with the technical backbone of the factory, and solve problems immediately.
Fortunately, with his expertise in manufacturing items, the equipment on the production line that had been repaired by Fang Xiaoyue would not break down again.
Three production lines can produce 1,800 motorcycles per month, but the gray factory director is so excited that he can't sleep at night.
But in Fang Xiaoyue's view, this output is too small.
In my original world, a small factory could produce more than tens of thousands of vehicles every month.
“We need to add more production lines!”
Fang Xiaoyue knew that two-stroke motorcycles would only be popular for a few years, and then four-strokes would quickly replace them.
After all, the four-stroke has the advantages of reliable and stable operation, wide speed range, low fuel consumption and high power compared to the two-stroke.
So if you want to make more money with this thing, it will only take a few years.
"The factory has no money!"
The gray factory director is a little helpless. He also knows how easy it is to sell motorcycles now.
"loan!"
Naturally, Fang Xiaoyue would not be as taboo about loans as the gray factory director. Anyway, the money he owed to the bank had not been repaid, so he didn't care about borrowing more.
He now has a higher status in the agricultural machinery factory than the gray factory director, so the finance department quickly contacted the bank about the loan.
Banks are no longer as reluctant to meet with me as they used to be.
Just kidding, who in Zhaoyang County doesn't know that agricultural machinery factories make a lot of money.
If such a high-quality enterprise does not lend money, how can it lend it to woodware factories, glass factories, and ceramic factories that are about to close down?
With the strong support of bank loans, the number of production lines quickly increased from three to ten!
It can be said that when the gray factory director signed the loan contract, his hands were shaking.
This is not because he suffers from Parkinson's disease, but because he feels uneasy.
What if too many motorcycles are produced and cannot be sold?
But what Factory Director Hua Bai didn't expect was that after the next seven production lines were put into production, the supply of motorcycles would still exceed demand.
