In the conference room, Director Liang sat there proudly, while everyone in the machinery factory was full of excitement, especially the old factory director!
After all, when Wang Ye said he wanted to introduce a heavy-duty diesel engine production line and also build tractors, the old factory director was very excited, because in the past, Hongxing Machinery Factory could only produce various light and medium-sized weapons, and did not involve the production of various vehicles at all. , so I am particularly yearning for such a big guy, even a tractor is a coveted existence.
It's a pity that although Wang Ye proposed this idea at the time, because it only had 300,000 US dollars, and the stall was not open at that time, only Director Li helped to inquire, and no one paid attention at all. As a result, the plan to introduce a diesel engine production line was shattered. The old factory director felt quite regretful about it. Although he said it was a good idea to introduce the motorcycle production line, he still couldn't forget the heavy-duty diesel engine production line in his heart.
After all, there is a huge difference between a motorcycle engine and a diesel engine!
Especially the smell of burning diesel engines is simply too enticing!
Nowadays, the introduction of the diesel engine production line has not only been completed, but the key point is the heavy-duty diesel engine production line that has produced tank engines. How could the old factory director not be excited!
As for the leaders of the machinery factory, the same is true. After all, motorcycles can only be considered light industry, but diesel engines are considered heavy industry. They have crossed the class, so naturally they are very happy!
"Thank you to the country! Thank you to the country for its trust in our Red Star Machinery Factory!"
"But when will these two production lines be in place?"
When Wang Ye couldn't speak, the old factory director became Wang Ye's mouthpiece. Looking at Director Liang, his face glowed with anticipation and he asked, while Director Li smiled and flicked the ashes of his cigarette and said:
"Old senior, I know you are anxious, but don't be anxious yet, because it's useless to be anxious!"
"After all, these two heavy-duty diesel engine production lines, plus other attached production equipment, are quite large. Let's not mention the situation at Luoyang Yituo for the moment. The key point is that the infrastructure work here must be done well. !”
"Otherwise, when the equipment arrives, where will it be placed? Our current workshop cannot accommodate such large equipment!"
"Do you think this is true?"
Hearing what Director Liang said, the old factory manager couldn't help but blush, and then he laughed and said:
"Yes, yes, Director Liang is right. It is indeed the old man who is too impatient."
“I’ve never been involved in heavy industry in the past, so I really don’t understand it!”
While Director Liang was talking to the old factory director, Wang Ye, who was sitting next to him, also recovered from his initial excitement. In fact, the infrastructure problem Director Liang mentioned was still a small problem. After all, it was just building a house. Anyway, now The machine factory has money, so it is easy to solve the problem.
The key issue is manpower!
If he hadn't received so many orders at the Canton Fair, Wang Ye could have squeezed out some of his manpower and transferred them, just like he did with the motorcycle engine production line before. Training would be troublesome at most, but it would still work.
But now that the heavy-duty diesel engine project has been launched, we can no longer do this. On the one hand, the total number of formal employees in the machinery factory is only 1,200. Even if all those who were previously employed due to age and replacement are rehired, the number of people will not exceed 1,600. , with just this few workers, it’s not enough to digest the orders. Where will the rich manpower come from to transfer to the diesel engine production line project?
Secondly, although military industry generally belongs to heavy industry, the weapons produced by machinery factories in the past can only be regarded as light industry. There is a huge gap between the serious heavy industry like Luoyang Yituo. Although they are all industries, the production of rifles is The gap between light industry and heavy industry such as diesel engine production is not small. Secondary training is more difficult, and it is not the same concept as motorcycle engine.
"Where can I find someone?"
This thought flashed through Wang Ye's mind. Nowadays, it is not just a few decades later that people can freely recruit in the market. Nowadays, in theory, everyone belongs to the state and must obey the state's distribution!
Before going to the Canton Fair, Wang Ye had actually been thinking about this issue, so he initially made conditions with Zhou Jinlie, hoping to allocate some college students, junior college students and technical secondary school students. But now it seems that even if a few students can be allocated, It doesn’t work at all!
"That's right, Director Liang."
"Over there, Luo Yang, how soon can the transportation start?"
After thinking for a moment, Wang Ye gave up thinking about this issue for the time being. Looking at Director Liang asking this, Director Liang said without hesitation:
"According to the above statement, it will take half a month at the earliest."
"It will take at least a month to ship everything out!"
Wang Ye was not surprised by this answer. Wang Ye thought for a moment and then said again:
"Regarding the expansion of the machinery factory, can you help contact the war zone?"
"I'm thinking, since we're building houses anyway, who earns the money? It's better to make our army system cheaper. Please ask Commander Song if there are any free engineering troops who can take this order from us?"
"The price will be normal. I don't think Commander Song will open his mouth like a lion, right?"
As soon as Wang Ye said these words, Director Liang's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but give a thumbs up and said:
"You kid, you know how to do things! Okay, I'll ask you when I get back."
"I dare not say anything else. Our engineering team will do it for you, and the quality and quantity will be guaranteed, and the price will be favorable!"
"I dare to put these words here for you now, don't worry!"
Wang Ye's proposal was also approved by the old factory director. He looked at Wang Ye with a look of relief. Then Wang Ye turned his eyes to Director Li, who had been smoking happily and saying nothing.
"Director Li and Director Liang have brought us such good news?"
"Don't you have any good news?"
Hearing Wang Ye's teasing, Director Li was amused, sat upright and said:
"As you said, of course I have good news!"
"Yesterday, the Municipal Party Committee held a meeting overnight and required our Industrial Bureau and relevant departments to cooperate with your Hongxing Machinery Factory to complete the task of earning foreign exchange!"
"There must be no delay or shirk. Even the city's top leaders directly said that anyone who doesn't do human affairs will get out."
"This morning, our old director filed a report for internal dismissal because he was too old and incompetent."
"Isn't this good news?"
As soon as these words came out, there was a burst of laughter in the conference room. After all, everyone present knew that now, after the old director of the Yuntai City Industrial Bureau retired, the number one deputy director is Director Li, who is in charge of the Development Office!
In fact, Director Li was not so strong before, but because of his foreign exchange earnings in the past period, he directly became the most popular No. 2 person in the Industrial Bureau.
"Director Li, is this good news for you?"
"Then I have to congratulate you in advance for being promoted to director!"
Regarding Wang Ye's statement, Director Li waved his hand with a smile, put down the tea cup and said:
"It's not that simple. At most, he is an acting director."
"Maybe it will take three to five years before I can become a full-time employee. After all, my qualifications are shorter."
Speaking of this, Director Li smiled and said:
"No matter what, I have benefited from you, otherwise even this acting director would be a dream, and I would have to live with it for at least another ten years!"
"Whether you can become a regular employee in the future and how long it will take to become a regular employee depends on you, kid!"
"You have to work hard for us, hahaha!"
As soon as these words came out, the scene burst into laughter again. Director Li was now calm. With such a capable person under his command, he was wondering what else to do. He had no choice but to serve Wang Ye and the Machinery Factory. There was no need for promotion. Down.
Besides, the existence of Wang Ye and the Machinery Factory itself is performance and political achievement!
After chatting for a while, Wang Ye looked at Director Li and asked:
"By the way, Director Li, you should know a lot about Laiyang Iron and Steel Plant, right?"
"How is this factory? Equipment? Production capacity? Worker level? Management level? Comprehensive aspects?"
Hearing what Wang Ye said, Director Li couldn't help but laugh, knocked on the table and said:
"You kid, did you ask so carefully?"
"I think you are interested in Laiyang Iron and Steel Plant, right?"
Having been exposed by Director Li, Wang Ye didn't feel the slightest bit embarrassed. He nodded calmly and said:
"Yes, I like it."
In fact, Wang Ye had ideas about the Laiyang Iron and Steel Factory a long time ago. This factory is not far from the Red Star Machinery Factory. In the past military industry era, it once produced parts for the Red Star Machinery Factory. To a certain extent, it can be regarded as a supporting factory.
Today's Hongxing Machinery Factory has the machining capabilities of small and medium-sized parts, but it is basically impossible to cast, forge, and stamp large metal parts. However, the steel factory has such capabilities.
To put it bluntly, they are complementary advantages!
"In fact, when the municipal committee met some time ago, the leaders discussed this issue. After all, your steel pipes are manufactured by them. I feel that it would be a good plan if your machinery factory and steel factory could be merged."
"But aren't you still converting the army into civilians? In addition, I am afraid that speaking rashly will make you feel disgusted. In addition, you are just starting out. I am afraid that such a direct merger will bring you down. It will be like a chicken flying egg. Oh no."
"So the matter was put on hold."
Director Li picked up the teacup and took a sip mid-sentence, and then continued:
"As for the steel plant, Lao Huangli will not talk about it. It once was glorious in the northern region of Luqi Province. Later, due to backward equipment, high pressure on raw material sources, and lower cost than large steel plants, it gradually became dull."
"It's hard to say what the production capacity is. It's definitely not advanced, but it's barely enough to produce ordinary industrial parts."
"As for the workers, they have nothing to say, they are all leveraged."
"In terms of management, the overall situation is relatively mediocre. You have met Liu, the current factory boss. He was born as a front-line worker and worked step by step. He understands technology and production, but his brain is relatively dull. He understands the saying of finding a leader when you have difficulties."
"Before you ask them to do the work for you, come to my office for tea every now and then."
"I can't help it. He drinks his food and I do mine. When the time comes, I leave without yelling. It's been like this for almost two years."
Accompanied by Director Li's humorous voice, the scene suddenly burst into laughter. Hearing what Director Li said, Wang Ye laughed twice in agreement, and then said:
"In that case, why don't you contact us first and mention this matter?"
"If the other party is more willing, let's talk about it. If the other party is not happy, then we can build a set of steel mill equipment ourselves. Although it is more troublesome, it is more comfortable. They say that forceful melons are not sweet."
"In case of forced annexation, there are some cliques, disobedience to management, and some morons, it would be better not to annex."
Director Li knew what Wang Ye said, nodded and said:
"Okay, I'll check it out for you. Anyway, you come first."
"If it works, it works. If it doesn't work, it doesn't work."
"In addition, among the other factories within our Yuntai City, you can speak to any one you like."
"Everything can be discussed!"
Hearing this, Wang Ye smiled helplessly. It was obvious that for the city leaders, it would be best if Wang Ye could take down all these factories with poor operating conditions. As for those with good operating conditions, basically It doesn't exist, maybe the Third Food Factory can barely count as one.
After chatting for a while, Director Li stood up and left.
At this point, of course, he couldn't go back to Yuntai. Instead, he planned to go directly to Laiyang Iron and Steel Plant, and then stay there overnight to talk to Wang Ye about the merger and understand the overall situation.
As for Director Liang, he can't go back to Quancheng now and can only stay in the machinery factory at night.
Subsequently.
Wang Ye returned to his office, sat on the chair after half a month, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh. The stall had been opened, but there was a problem of insufficient manpower.
It's like more than forty years later, the Chinese navy is crazy about dumplings. The warships have been built, but they can't start maritime training immediately, let alone integrate them into the fleet to form combat effectiveness.
The reason is also very simple. For the level of Chinese industry at that time, it was easy to build ships, but it was not easy to train officers and soldiers!
"Time! Time is needed everywhere, and what I lack most is time!"
"Talent! Talent is fundamental, but where can I recruit talents?"
Sitting on the chair, Wang Ye took out a new stack of manuscript paper. After pondering for a long time, he wrote on the top of the table:
"Regarding the planning plan for the integrated development of industry, academia and research in Laiyang Machinery Factory and surrounding areas."
Even though Wang Ye has countless technologies brought from later generations in his mind, Wang Ye alone cannot do it if he wants to turn these technologies into physical objects, and even if he can do it, the time will be difficult to estimate.
Furthermore, the power of Red Star Machinery Factory is not truly powerful, but only the power of China as a whole is truly powerful!
So in Wang Ye's mind, he has always had a great, shocking, and amazing dream!
That is to establish a university, and build a giant industry-university-research base with this university and Hongxing Machinery Factory as the core, based on many laboratories and research institutes, and surrounded by many upstream and downstream industrial chains!
Only in this way can we achieve truly sustainable, efficient, positive and rapid development.
Even Wang Ye himself knows that this plan is so huge and incredible, and the probability of achieving it is very low, but Wang Ye is still willing to try, even if it cannot be 100%, even if it is 60 or 70% !
And from the perspective of imminent problems, Wang Ye must also find a way to solve the problems of technicians and workers. This is an impossible problem to avoid. Otherwise, it will be impossible to expand the scale of the machinery factory, and without a large-scale factory, it is impossible. Win in the brutal international market competition.
"When you are alive, you always have to have dreams!"
"Who dares to say that the eighth son of national defense will not be born here?"
Finally, Wang Ye raised his head and muttered, and began to write quickly on the paper.
at the same time.
Director Li also arrived at Laiyang Iron and Steel Plant. After a brief exchange of greetings, when the conference room was filled with smoke and after three rounds of tea, Director Li revealed his original intention of coming this time.
As soon as he finished speaking, Director Liu who was sitting there suddenly stood up. Just when Director Li thought he was going to object violently, he unexpectedly said with a bright smile on his face:
"Merger? Merger is great! Director Li, when should we start?"
"I think tomorrow will be good, it happens to be Monday! With my level, Old Liu, it shouldn't be a big problem to be the production section chief after the merger, right?"
"Can you help me put in a nice word in front of Factory Director Wang?"
As soon as these words came out, the production section chief, who had been delighted when he heard that the machinery factory was about to merge with the steel factory, was stunned. He pointed at himself hesitantly, and then asked in a low voice:
"then what do I do?"
In response, Factory Manager Liu waved his hand and said directly:
"You become the deputy section chief!"
Seeing this scene, Director Li felt that he had come in vain, and Wang Ye had worried in vain. After more than two months, maybe the factories in the city were not clear yet, but the steel factory had no idea about the situation of the machinery factory. It couldn't be clearer!
The workers, aunts, and children were all so fat that their buttholes were leaking oil!
