Time flies, and it soon arrives in late August. The temperatures in the morning and at night begin to drop, but the Hongxing Machinery Factory becomes increasingly busy and lively.
After all, when the ground starts to freeze in mid-November, there will be no way to continue construction and progress of civil engineering projects. There is still more than two months to go before the final window period, and the entire factory expansion work has entered full capacity. state.
Today, the subsidiaries of the Machinery Factory and Steel Complex have been divided into four parts, namely, the First Machinery Factory, the Second Steel Factory, the Red Star Research Institute, and the Red Star Secondary Vocational and Technical School.
In the end, Wang Ye did not obtain a university license. Even the Ministry of Machinery and the Ministry of National Defense actually did not think about coordinating a university license for Wang Ye. After all, although Wang Ye was issued a large number of retirement There are re-employed senior technicians, senior engineers, and even retired teachers and professors from some institutions, but overall, the quantity and quality can only be said to be average, and they cannot support the level that a university should have.
Moreover, in China today, universities are still very valuable, and there is no way to compare them with the era when universities were everywhere and crazy enrollment of students a few decades later.
Every university now is a famous existence. To put it simply, the Red Star Machinery and Steel Complex is not worthy of having a university.
but.
Wang Ye was not surprised by this result. He was very satisfied to have a technical secondary school license and agree to expand the enrollment of students in Luqi Province along the province's score ranking.
Nowadays, people apply before the college entrance examination. In other words, there will be a large number of people who do not apply properly because they do not apply properly. In the end, they score high but fail to study. Wang Ye just missed this batch.
The first batch of enrollment totaled more than 1,200 people. According to discussions between Wang Ye and many teachers, they were divided into seven majors, namely weapons engineering, electronic science, vehicle engineering, aircraft engineering, ship engineering, and materials science. ,Applied Chemistry.
As a directly corresponding technical secondary school, this is still relatively good. It has a certain degree of autonomy. It does not need to strictly follow the rules and regulations of the Ministry of Education to design corresponding professional departments and categories. It can be set independently according to the situation of the corresponding enterprise.
When Wang Ye ordered 1,200 people, he actually reserved a certain margin to prevent some people from looking down on this newly established technical secondary school and not coming to register. After all, some people are ambitious and would rather study in the third year of high school again than to There are many people who want to go to famous schools.
But no matter what, this enrollment scale is quite impressive in this era, but Wang Ye doesn't care. After all, he wants to integrate industry, academia and research. The students are not just students, but also workers, so it doesn't matter if there are more.
In the future, candidates can be screened based on their learning status, scientific research talent, and level of effort. The best ones will continue to engage in scientific research and R&D, the average ones will become engineers, and those with dexterity will become senior technicians. It is very reasonable and reasonable.
in addition.
In addition to technical secondary schools, there is another newly established structure, which is the research institute.
To put it simply, most of the research work in the future will be named under the name of the institute, while the machinery factory and steel factory will become a pure production and R&D support unit, even the subsequent mergers and creation of new factories will be the same. .
The research institute, technical secondary school, and the two factories are essentially intertwined.
To put it simply, the current research institute is just an empty shell. There is almost no pure theoretical research. All research is more practical. The researchers of the research institute can be teachers in technical secondary schools or in steel plants. senior technician.
For example, Lao Chen, his son Chen Hang was the first person to test-fly a rotorcraft. Both father and son participated in the production and testing of rotorcraft. Therefore, with the establishment of the institute, the follow-up research and development plan of rotorcraft was also transferred to the institute. Although They were still working in the machinery factory, but these staff members were also registered under the name of the research institute. When Lao Chen got the "researcher"'s ID card, he was so excited that he cried!
After all, he used to be just a worker who was proficient in car maintenance technology, a researcher? Never in my wildest dreams would I dare to be so outrageous!
In fact, Wang Ye very much agrees with a truth, that is, genius and ability need to be discovered and supported by the platform. To put it simply, if Huaxia does not resume the college entrance examination, he may become a "coal black man" working in the mines. How? Maybe do some research?
So now Wang Ye is willing to provide these people, whether they are older, former workers, or newly admitted students, with a platform that is good enough and high enough to tap into their abilities and potential.
This is the current situation.
But in the future, the institute will add a large number of purely theoretical and exploratory R&D personnel, but that is already a future plan, and there is currently no ability or need to do so.
At the same time, in order to maintain the scientific research atmosphere and purity of the institute, Wang Ye used a "parallel" management method here.
To put it simply, the most important leadership organization of the entire institute is the “Committee”, followed by the “Review Council”, and finally the “Secretariat and Logistics Management Office”.
Wang Ye is of course the dean of the institute and the chairman of the committee. All technical leaders in charge of scientific research projects are members of the committee and can be respectfully called a committee member.
For example, the bald old man is one of the committee members. The team he leads is working on integrating the weapons station with the Type 59 tank.
If the project is completed, the project team will be deregistered, and the committee member will lose his identity and return to his original identity, such as a teacher in a technical secondary school, a technician in the two factories, or a simple researcher.
In other words, the institute adopts the method of insiders controlling experts to prevent the mistakes of laymen controlling experts.
The committee is even simpler. If someone wants to establish a new project and become a member, he needs to convince the committee members and get more than half of the votes to make it happen.
As for the members of the committee, there are members of the research institute, teachers from technical secondary schools, technical staff from the two factories, and even administrative staff and sales staff. After all, once a project is established, whether it has a commercial future is also one of the aspects that needs to be assessed. At least at this stage, this is the case. Purely theoretical research projects without a market cannot be initiated for the time being.
Of course, if you can convince Wang Ye, the chairman of the review committee, you can naturally establish the project and get the highest level of financial and material support.
The final secretariat and logistics management office are responsible for providing materials and all-round support to the projects after their establishment. They are the only administrative agencies of the entire institute.
all in all.
If the research institute is the head, then the technical secondary school and the two factories are the left hand that focuses on academics and learning, and the right hand that focuses on production and practice. Then these three intersect with each other to form an industry-university-research system.
As for the current institute, its fixed staff are the Ministry of Machinery and the Ministry of National Defense. It contacted the Ministry of Education to recruit a group of college students, college students and technical secondary school students, totaling more than 200 people. Among them, college students are the least, with less than Ten, with the largest number being students from technical secondary schools, there are more than 150 students.
In the institute, they will temporarily serve as the "employees" of the committee members in the project, responsible for helping.
After all, it seems too disrespectful and caring for the elderly to let committee members like a bald old man personally operate the crane, move the weapons station on the 59 tank, and even carry the shells. And these young people do this, and the disciples accept their work. Well!
Soon, students from Hongxing Technical High School will be here to help.
August 29th.
The day before the new students registered, Wang Ye came to inspect the student dormitories again early in the morning. In order to control the construction period and cost, the teaching places and scientific research places of the technical secondary schools were naturally buildings and even various workshops. There was nothing to say about it.
As for the accommodation, it is more characteristic of the times. It is a bungalow and a kang in Datongpu!
After all, the least valuable thing is the land. Although the bungalow covers a larger area, the construction speed is fast and the manufacturing cost is low. Now Wang Ye does not have the ability to provide central heating in the entire factory, so using bungalows is the best way. The big kang and fire wall make it warmer in winter.
"How are you doing? Will it be damp when the children move in?"
Wang Ye asked while standing in a dormitory. Each dormitory covers an area of about 24 to 5 square meters. Eight people can sleep on the kang. The fire is outside the room to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning. There are tables and tables on the ground. Bookshelf, standard eight-person room.
An engineering company commander in charge of construction next to him laughed and said:
"Don't worry, we haven't spared you any trouble these past few days. We've been lighting the fire every day and it's almost done!"
"Let me tell you, this bungalow is very comfortable to live in! It's much more exciting than a building!"
Wang Ye nodded. At this moment, the quilts and bedding provided for the students had been spread out on the kang. Wang Ye reached out and touched under the mattress. There was indeed no feeling of moisture. It was dry and warm.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Commander Zhang!"
Finally, Wang Ye said to Battalion Commander Zhang with a smile, and Battalion Commander Zhang quickly waved his hand and said:
"You're welcome!"
Wang Ye then left the dormitory and continued his inspection work. Now the entire machinery plant and steel complex covers more than ten times the area of the former Red Star Machinery Plant.
In the past, the tallest building in the factory was the small office building. Nowadays, there are five-story teaching buildings and laboratory buildings standing next to each other.
There are also a large number of newly built workshops. These workshops are different from the old and relatively short workshops of the former machinery factories. They have new shapes and occupy a large area. They are also painted with slogans that are characteristic of the times. They look very impressive. .
recently.
The Ministry of 5th Machinery and the Ministry of National Defense sent Wang Ye a total of nearly 600 re-employed old technicians, engineers and professors. Naturally, these old people lived in the building, which was euphemistically called the "Expert Apartment". With more than 3,000 workers of various types, plus family members, the size of the entire machinery factory has almost reached three or four times its previous size. Looking down from the nearby hills, it is already a large, continuous area.
As for these skilled workers and senior technicians, most of them work with their families and live in small courtyards assigned to them.
There are also about 200 college students, junior college students and technical secondary school students. Although they live in small bungalows, they are in two-, four-, and six-person rooms, which are different from the eight-person rooms that students live in.
So during this period of time, Wang Ye was so busy that his head was about to explode.
In addition to inspecting the construction site during the day and settling in the old people and graduates who came, they also had to take a group of settled old people and workers to install and debug various equipment. More importantly, the two things that the old factory director was thinking about were The diesel engine production line had to be watched all the time for fear of something going wrong. Fortunately, Wang Ye didn't have to worry about the interview questions of the workers sent here, otherwise he would be really exhausted.
At ten o'clock in the morning, after walking around the construction site, Wang Ye returned to his office. He sat down and before taking a sip of water, there was a knock on the door.
"Enter!"
Following Wang Ye's voice, Li Baojun came in.
"What's wrong Baojun?"
Wang Ye saw that it was Li Baojun who came in, and he was relieved. If there is any department that reassures Wang Ye the most recently, it is the manufacturing factory. Young people and female comrades are doing a great job, and the products have been promoted to the entire Luqi Province. The market response has been very good.
"Director, this is this month's sales report."
"Especially in the past week, our electric fan sales have begun to decline very quickly!"
"There was a slight increase in washing machine sales, but not much."
Li Baojun handed over a document and said so. Wang Ye was not surprised by this, nodded and said:
"It's normal. If the weather isn't hot anymore, electric fans will naturally not be sold."
"When the weather gets colder and your hands freeze when washing clothes, then the sales volume of washing machines will naturally increase slightly. These are normal ups and downs, so don't worry."
Wang Ye originally thought that Li Baojun was worried, but to his surprise, Li Baojun waved his hand and said:
"I'm not worried about this, but according to the current downward trend, part of our production will have to stop soon, otherwise we will have to sell goods."
"But if it stops, everyone will have a rest. What do you think we should do? Just let everyone have a rest?"
Hearing what Li Baojun said, Wang Ye thought for a second, then quickly wrote a note and said:
"Well, just stop! This is a sample labor dispatch contract."
"You go and print some, and give priority to those young, capable, smart guys and girls, let them sign contracts, and I will transfer them to work in the research institute and technical secondary school."
"Of course, this is temporary."
Li Baojun took the piece of paper suspiciously. After reading it for a few seconds, he couldn't help but exclaimed:
"It's so high! Director! It's so high!"
Wang Ye didn't respond at all to his flattery. He wrote two more notes and said:
"This is a technical consultant's employment contract, and this is a list."
"You print the employment contracts, and then take these employment contracts to find the people on the list. Then visit them one by one. If you have a good attitude, you can hire them to be non-staff technical consultants in our manufacturing plant."
"Next, our manufacturing plant has to start working on compressors and picture tubes. The list is full of relevant experts."
When Li Baojun took the document and read it, he said with amazement:
"Director, you are such a genius!"
"For just such a small amount of money, the technology property rights they produce will belong to our manufacturing plant?"
After hanging out with Wang Ye for a long time, Li Baojun can now clearly distinguish the difference between a consortium and a manufacturing plant, and he also knows what intellectual property is, which is why he is so amazed.
"Just understand. This is called leaning against a big tree to enjoy the shade."
"Go quickly! Let's talk carefully!"
Then Li Baojun imitated Wang Ye's movements, made an OK gesture, and left happily.
"call!"
The office finally became quiet. Wang Ye slumped in his chair and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
at the same time.
Tens of thousands of kilometers away in Africa, Tanzania, in the capital Dodoma, in the office of Deputy Minister of National Defense Kikwete, Kikwete looked at the map with a frown on his face.
"The war situation is tense! If the only supply line is cut off, the whole of Uganda will be out of control!"
"what to do?"
