"If you are lagging behind, you should lower your head and learn from others diligently and ask for advice. There is no shame in it. The most shameful thing is that if you are lagging behind, you still have to make such or such demands to others. Isn't this overestimating your own capabilities? It's better now. I can't buy it. With advanced equipment, what else can we do? What will you do if you fail to complete the tasks assigned by the organization?"
"Let me tell you, I have now completed the tasks assigned by the organization, and I don't care about the rest. I cannot afford to serve you arrogant men."
The leader of the group didn't even pay attention to the gold-rimmed glasses that made the bridge. The other party directly vented his anger on Li Ming, and his words were full of blame.
Li Ming glanced at the other party, then smiled, and he smiled very happily.
"Who said their equipment is the best in the world? Is it enough to say they are the most arrogant? I have found a more advanced production line in China, a complete set."
"And the equipment that can fully adapt to our factory's production model, the equipment produced by that company is cheaper, and can be close to us for after-sales service. The price is at least 700,000 cheaper than the equipment in Germany."
"You say I don't understand the general situation. I think it's because you've been kneeling for a long time and can't stand up. Advanced? Ten years ago, their equipment was just like a bird. It hasn't changed at all. If you don't believe me, go to Qingdao and see. That equipment is still missing. Where we are collecting the ashes, if we want to do this this time, we need to buy a complete equipment production line, instead of just kneeling like a fool and giving them the money, do you understand?"
"Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand technical things. You don't know how to distinguish between advanced and backward. Tell me this, it's ridiculous and ignorant!"
Faced with the accusations from his ignorant colleagues, Li Ming's anger that he had been holding back for several hours suddenly burst out. He pointed at his gold-rimmed glasses and said this. The other party did not expect that a dull technician like Li Ming would be so tough. This was the first time.
But the other party had no way to refute what Li Ming said, because what Li Ming said was reasonable and well-founded, and the other party's usual deceptive words were worried that they would be more laughable, not to mention that the big leader was here, and the other party had to maintain his grace.
"I won't argue with you, Li Ming. You lack the spirit of collectivism and have never seen advanced equipment. You will pay the price for today's arrogance and ignorance."
He turned away and faced directly out of the window, his gold-rimmed glasses and arrogant chest kept rising and falling, but the group leader did not say anything to stop him.
Back at the hotel, the leader called Li Ming to his room alone.
"Li Ming, you are a full-time technician. Please tell me now. If we return to China now and arrive at Yiyuan Manufacturing, we can buy equipment suitable for the current production model of our factory."
"Of course, it is not limited to the current production model. If our factory equipment is upgraded in the future, can One Yuan Manufacturing upgrade this equipment accordingly? If so, we will cancel all the next trips and go straight to One Yuan Manufacturing."
"You have to remember that everything you say now must be held accountable. Our purchase will directly affect the development of our related industries in the next few decades. Many private companies and brother companies are also watching our every move. , with the capital city at our feet, everyone is watching every move we make.”
The big leader looked at Li Ming with a very serious face. Although he had all kinds of technical information in his hands, the big leader was still not very sure.
After all, according to traditional thinking, China's manufacturing industry is still at the very end of the world. Take the domestic machine tool industry as an example. Until now, it has not produced world-leading equipment.
I have never heard of a Chinese company taking the lead in this set of special equipment in the rubber field. How could such a company appear out of thin air? The group leaders did not have confidence in their hearts.
"I guarantee everything I have. In the two days before coming here, I have been on site watching the production and use of this set of equipment manufactured by Yiyuan. From raw materials to semi-finished products and finished products, this set of equipment manufactured by Yiyuan can handle the entire process. Finish."
"The raw materials are all purchased from our country. There are no imported raw materials. The application environment is the same as ours. If the other party can make products with high precision, we can also make them. When the German equipment comes to our local area, the process must be re-explored. This can’t be done within a year or so.”
"What is advanced equipment? Utilize existing conditions to make products with high efficiency and high quality.
To produce high-quality products that customers need, this is advanced equipment. Just because a piece of equipment has a German manufacturer's logo on it does not mean it is advanced. This concept is wrong. I, Li Ming, guarantee my future that this set of equipment manufactured with one yuan can definitely meet the needs of our company. "
Faced with the leader's questioning, Li Ming was almost categorical. The group leader stared at Li Ming for five seconds and then nodded.
"Okay, you prepare the information first."
After thinking for a while, the big leader finally decided to believe Li Ming.
A top student who is meticulous in his daily work and has sufficient rationality and party spirit, the group leader waved his hand and Li Ming quit. A few minutes later, the other party started calling the country.
"Give me the detailed information of Yiyuan Manufacturing. I want the most detailed information, including when they were born, what important projects they have done, and whether they have cooperated with our state-owned enterprises on projects. It is best to give me the contact information of the contact person. .”
Calling his secretary, the group leader leaned against the sofa.
Closing his eyes, the other person's eyes were filled with the blank stares he had received these days. Although as a buyer, when it comes to the purchase of equipment, the initiative is completely out of his hands. This kind of treatment and pressure is unprecedented.
The upgrading of equipment and production methods is of national importance and no one can delay it. However, funds are limited, and equipment must be purchased, production lines must be renovated, and subsequent production line upgrades must be considered.
The retired leaders in the past did not consider these issues, so they left the problems to their own group. It is impossible for their own group of people to wear new shoes and follow the same old path.
The equipment of foreigners is said to be advanced, but if it cannot be continuously upgraded and transformed, and it is just a one-time purchase, then it will be a big investment in the future.
As an industrial leader, the other party is under great pressure.
How to solve the problems of 20 to 30 years at once is the key to this procurement. Only solving the immediate problems must be changed. This way of operating must be changed.
In particular, Li Ming's factory in Gu'an, a place where leaders have high hopes, must not replace equipment in the name of upgrading every few years. That would give a very bad start to the brother companies.
All kinds of information passed through his mind, and more than an hour passed unknowingly. The phone rang, and it took the leader a while to pick it up.
