Fang Hanmin understood the doubts of several young technicians and appreciated their scientific and pragmatic work attitude, but he really could not explain the reasons to them.
The preparation of palladium carbon catalysts and hydrogenation reduction technology were already quite mature processes in Fang Hanmin's previous life. The catalyst preparation and evaluation process conditions given by Fang Hanmin were the result of optimization through countless tests and production practices. In his Relevant industries in previous lives have been widely used. Faced with such optimized process conditions, it is completely unnecessary for him to conduct experiments and verification of other conditions.
The purpose of forming a scientific research team is not to start from the laboratory to study the preparation method of palladium carbon catalyst and hydrogenation reduction process. Fang Hanmin’s purpose is just to show it to outsiders and let them know that the in-depth technical transformation of the second workshop is based on a series of foundations on top of work, and use this to dispel the concerns of leaders.
Measured by the general test process, the work in the pilot stage was indeed rough. Because of the very optimized process conditions, Fang Hanmin had no intention of spending time in the laboratory, but he had to face the doubts of four young technicians.
Unable to tell the real reason, Fang Hanmin said helplessly: "Your opinions are very reasonable, but the in-depth technical transformation of the second workshop is a more urgent task. We cannot carry out multiple tests in the laboratory step by step." The process conditions must be verified one by one, but the test results that have been subject to limited verification can also illustrate the problem well.”
"Are you talking about the two sets of test conditions given later? The results can explain some problems, but we think it is still far from enough. For such a large project, no matter how detailed the basic work is, it cannot be done too much."
Fang Hanmin doesn't want to waste time here with a few technicians. Don't you want to do experiments? There will be endless scientific research projects for you to complete in the future. In order not to continue to struggle with the previous issue, he thought of a delaying strategy, "If you are interested, after the in-depth technical transformation task of the second workshop is completed, we can return to the laboratory and conduct detailed verification of other process conditions. .”
After all, Fang Hanmin was their leader. Although the four technicians were not satisfied with his answer, they had to obey Fang Hanmin's decision in the end.
With the small test as a basis, when determining the pilot test plan, Fang Hanmin gave the work initiative to the technical personnel of the two groups. He observed from the sidelines. He wanted to see which of the four technical personnel was better.
A few days later, the four people handed over their respective plans to Fang Hanmin. In order to be as fair as possible, he called the four people together and asked them to introduce the characteristics of their respective plans, and then held a secret vote on each person's plan.
Although he did not comment on specific plans, Fang Hanmin wanted to participate in the voting on each plan. After explaining the voting rules, the five people began to vote on the four sets of plans.
A few minutes later, Fang Hanmin announced the voting results to everyone. Xu Hui had two votes, Wan Cheng had one vote, Jiang Guoxin had one vote, and Guo Peng had two votes.
It is obvious that each of the four parties voted for themselves. The extra vote each received by Xu Hui and Guo Peng was voted by Fang Hanmin.
Although there is no need to explain, Fang Hanmin believed that Xu Hui's catalyst preparation plan took into account the convenience of actual operation, while Wan Cheng, who was in the same group as him, was too rigidly constrained by the limitations of the laboratory test process.
Guo Peng's plan not only combined with the small-scale test process, but also fully considered the particularity of the hydrogenation reaction, because hydrogen is a dangerous gas that is prone to explosion. In his plan, he combined the process flow with safety issues Thinking about it together, this is a major highlight, while Jiang Guoxin, who is in the same group, only focuses on process technology and ignores safety issues.
However, Fang Hanmin emphasized that each group is a whole, and the unselected plans are not without merit. For example, Wan Cheng's plan allows the results of laboratory verification to be fully reflected. Although Jiang Guoxin's plan does not pay enough attention to safety factors, However, the hydrogenation process is easy to control, and these advantages need to be absorbed when formulating the final plan.
In addition to verifying the results obtained in the small-scale trial stage, the pilot test process also simulates the conditions of industrial production. As the size of the equipment increases, the site area naturally also needs to be expanded. Fang Hanmin reported the situation to Lao Xia and asked him to help solve the venue problem.
Chief Engineer Lao Xia did not have the power to use funds or allocate fixed assets of the entire factory. After listening to Fang Hanmin's report, he needed to report to Factory Director Yuan. Lao Yuan had been paying attention to the work progress of Fang Hanmin's team. Of course he was happy to hear the news, but He hoped to hear Fang Hanmin's personal report, "You inform Fang Hanmin that the three of us will have a meeting here."
In Factory Director Yuan's office, Fang Hanmin once again reported the results obtained during the pilot phase and raised the space and funding issues that needed to be resolved by the factory during the pilot phase.
Factory Director Yuan was very interested and said, "Very good! You have done so much work in less than half a year, and the efficiency is still so high. It's amazing! The next step to do Chinese style involves funding and site issues. The funding is easy to handle. Now the second workshop The acetaminophen is very effective, and the factory is not short of money. The key is the space. Is there any vacant factory building in the whole factory?"
Lao Xia didn't know about this situation, "Ask the logistics department."
Factory Director Yuan grabbed the phone on the table and was about to dial a number before putting it down when he suddenly remembered something. "Comrade Xiaofang, have you done any evaluation? How much area of factory building is needed for the pilot test? What kind of public works such as water, electricity and so on are needed?" Package?"
Fang Hanmin came well prepared. He gave detailed explanations to the factory leaders about the factory building area, water and electricity supporting projects required for the pilot test, and the number of additional personnel that needed to be added.
"Is that all?" Director Yuan looked nonchalant because he was in a good mood.
"That's it. After the pilot test is completed, we are going to move it directly to the production line in the second workshop."
"Aren't you going to do industrial testing? That would save money and time. The funds and personnel needed for pilot testing are not a problem. The key is the factory. I'll ask the logistics department."
Lao Yuan picked up the phone in front of him again and asked the logistics department. The answer he got was that there were no idle formal factories available, only a raw material warehouse that had been vacant for many years.
"How big is the area?" Fang Hanmin asked impatiently.
"A little bigger than you need."
"That's good!" Fang Hanmin's requirements are not very high. As long as there is a site, having a ready-made site will at least save time than finding a new place to build a new factory.
"I will immediately instruct the relevant departments to clean out the warehouse and connect water and electricity to meet the needs of the pilot test as soon as possible." Director Yuan immediately agreed.
Although four technicians from the scientific research team were asked to propose their own pilot plans, and a secret ballot was held to select a relatively good plan, these were all superficial things done by Fang Hanmin in order to let the outside world see that he Full respect is given to all technical staff.
In fact, the work plan, test plan and process flow for the pilot test finally given by Fang Hanmin were still his original ideas. Because he mastered the mature palladium-carbon catalyst preparation technology and hydrogenation reduction process in his previous life, he only needs to repeat those process conditions through small and pilot tests to add a little perceptual understanding to the members of the scientific research team. Why bother? What about going through all the trouble of starting a new business?
Several technicians in the team looked at the test plan and process flow provided by Fang Hanmin and felt that although it was very different from their plan, it also felt a bit familiar. After all, their plan was based on small trials. The small trials in the previous stage were carried out based on Fang Hanmin's technical plan.
During the construction of the pilot plant, although a professional construction team was responsible for the equipment installation, Fang Hanmin still involved the team's technical personnel to let them feel the difference between large equipment and laboratory equipment.
...
That afternoon, Fang Hanmin received a call from the head of the Human Resources Department, "Do you still remember what I told you before?"
"Chief Hou, you have said a lot to me before, but I don't know what you are referring to?"
"Liu Jiansheng is visiting my house today. Do you want to meet him?"
Fang Hanmin was very surprised, "Liu Gong is coming to your home today? Great! I have wanted to meet him for a long time, but I have never had the chance."
"Then let's get together at my house after get off work?"
"Okay, okay, thank you, Section Chief Hou!"
After get off work, Fang Hanmin went to a nearby store to buy two bottles of local famous wine, a carton of Daqianmen cigarettes, and some fruits. Before six o'clock in the evening, he appeared in front of Lao Hou's house with these gifts, and stretched out his hand to gently touch the door. After knocking a few times, Lao Hou opened the door to greet him. At the same time, he turned around and shouted inside: "Jiansheng, who do you think is here?"
Section Chief Hou lives in an old-style building with two bedrooms and one living room. Perhaps in order to surprise his brother-in-law, Lao Hou did not tell Fang Hanmin about his visit in advance. When he heard the shouts, Liu Jiansheng came out of the living room to welcome him, he was overjoyed, "It's Xiao Fang ?Fang Hanmin is here? Come in quickly!"
When Fang Hanmin saw the other party, his reaction was slightly delayed. On the one hand, he and Liu Gong had never met each other since Liu Gong introduced him to Lao Hou four years ago. In addition, Fang Hanmin in his previous life was not interested in the person in front of him. Strangers have no impression. Even if two Fang Hanmin communicate through souls, it still needs a short process.
After about ten seconds, Fang Hanmin came back to his senses and said, "Hello, Mr. Liu, Mr. Liu! I heard from Section Chief Hou that you were visiting his house today, and I came here to see you." After that, he handed over the gift he had brought. Put it on the table and stretch out your hands to shake Liu Gong's hand.
Lao Hou and Liu Gong saw the abnormality that Fang Hanmin showed just now, but they didn't think much about it, "Hanmin, have you not seen Jiansheng for many years, and now that we suddenly meet today, do you feel a little unfamiliar?"
Lao Hou's words are equivalent to giving Fang Hanmin a step down, "Chief Hou is indeed a person in charge of personnel work, and his guess is really accurate. To be honest, I haven't seen Gong Liu for more than four years. When we met just now, there was indeed such a feeling. There was a little unfamiliar feeling, but it disappeared in an instant. Liu Gong, please don’t worry too much!”
Lao Liu is an old engineering college student. He doesn't care about the red tape of interpersonal communication in society. In addition, Fang Hanmin left a very good impression on him at the water conservancy construction site. He said with a smile: "What a worry! We haven’t seen each other for so many years, it’s so rare to see her, it’s not too late to be happy.”
"In that case, you guys sit down and talk. Hanmin, it's wrong for you to come to visit and bring these gifts! Take them back when you leave."
"Brother-in-law, please don't embarrass Xiao Fang. If you let him take it back, what will he do with the cigarettes and alcohol? Just accept it and let him do it." Liu Gong was still considerate.
Fang Hanmin and Lao Liu, friends who were both familiar and yet unfamiliar, met again after so many years. Naturally, they had endless things to say. But at the beginning, Liu Gong basically asked questions, and Fang Hanmin just answered mechanically. As the exchange deepened, Fang Hanmin Gradually let go.
