Chapter 214: Courage

Chapter 214: Courage~~

Picking up a munitions factory for nothing, of course, it is just equipment and personnel. The factory does not belong to Ngee Ann and cannot be used. As long as Luo Cheng agrees, they will directly use the car to bring all the equipment.

Although he knew it was a good thing, Luo Cheng didn't dare to agree immediately. It was too sudden. If it were in later generations, they would definitely think it was a scam or something like that, but now that everything is state-owned, there is really no need to be afraid of being scammed.

However, Luo Cheng still felt that he would discuss this matter with Director Zhang and Team Leader Jiang. I don’t know if they have ever encountered such a thing, or heard of it.

After Director Zhang and Team Leader Jiang were called to the office, Luo Cheng talked about the call from the steel rolling mill just now. He felt that taking over the military factory and picking up equipment and high-level technical workers for nothing seemed to be a profit. Harmful. But I'm afraid there's something I haven't considered, otherwise how could such a cheap thing happen.

Nowadays, when buying equipment in a factory, you have to consider the cost. This engine will be designed in less than two days. The purchase of this equipment is not a small sum, and the machine is not advanced. Even if the equipment in this military factory is backward, it is unlikely that it is so backward that it does not need electricity. It is all manual machinery.

Director Zhang was sitting in the office, a little afraid to speak. This damn thing involves a military factory, so he can express his opinion. Not to mention him, even Team Leader Jiang didn't dare to say anything. Team Leader Jiang was not a good person even to local leaders, but when faced with such a problem, he really didn't dare to say anything.

Regardless of whether this matter is good or bad, if they dare to say a bad word about taking over the military factory and it is spread, this is really a problem with their thinking.

In the past, there was no cooperation between military industrial units and local enterprises. For example, the current Hongqi sedan production plant was formed by the merger of many departments and military factories. But it was a merger of equals, and the people in the military factory at least had a lot of say in the matter.

But in this situation, it is not cooperation but acceptance. Logically speaking, this should not happen. There are really backward military factories, such as those that produce pistols and cannons, and their styles have become obsolete. It's just another military factory that needs to be accepted.

Seeing Director Zhang and Team Leader Jiang, they didn't say anything bad, although they didn't say anything good either. I don't know what they were worried about. But Luo Cheng felt that as long as there was nothing bad to say, he would just agree if he had anything to think about.

Luo Cheng called back the rolling mill in front of Director Zhang and Team Leader Jiang. He needed equipment and people, and the automobile factory was not without money. It doesn't matter that their workers have high wages. They regard themselves as a match factory and only make a few cents per box of matches.

Even if the average salary is more than 100 per month, the salary for 100 people is only 10,000, which is just the profit of a few cars. But as long as you just start a random project, this little money is nothing. Moreover, the performance of my own engine is definitely much better than that of this era, even better than imported ones. Not to mention the increased price, I can just build a van. In fact, I can also build a car, but because of the problem of the model, I have to rely on advanced forging. It was hammered out by hand by metalworkers, and there was not much output in a year. It can be sold at a high price, but the production volume cannot increase. It doesn't matter if you earn tens of thousands per vehicle. It is better to buy a dozen more three-wheeled trucks.

But there is no problem in building an upgraded version of the cube truck. It can be called cube truck version 2.0, because calling it a van is not suitable in this era. Because many Chinese people have never eaten bread now, it would be more appropriate to call them a steamed bun cart if you call them a van. But if it is exported, it can be exported under the alias van.

At the Nghe An Steel Rolling Mill, Director Zhang was chatting and laughing with several people in military uniforms.

I gave Luo Cheng a military factory, but I didn't expect him to dare to accept it, not that there would be anything fishy about it. In fact, it was arranged by the superiors to assist Luo Cheng. But if you switch to an ordinary factory and encounter such a thing, even if you know that there is development for the factory. But he won't take over either.

It's easy to accept, but you have to be able to suppress people. Putting aside his status as factory director, Luo Cheng is just a mid-level engineer now, and the people he wants to send there are engineers of this level, and coupled with their military status, it can be said that many of them will have high status if they go there. of.

People who have a strong desire to control factories don't like opposition and doubts, and would rather develop slowly than touch military factories for the sake of expansion. As for large factories, they don't care about the resources of the military factory. There is no need to provoke people from the military factory for high-pressure work at the director level.

Of course, even if a really big factory wants to recruit, the military region will not agree. They are really interested in it. Who is Luo Cheng? Principal Dai's protégé. Although he has left the army, he is no different from half of the military region. To come back is just a matter of words.

Courage~~ He has so much courage. How could Luo Cheng think so much, and it was difficult for Director Zhang and Team Leader Jiang to talk about this matter. It's rare to persuade Luo Cheng to be selfish and not to provoke people from the military region for development. What if Luo Cheng has a high ideological consciousness and accepts it? As the manager of the department, he has little influence on them. He is not in charge of whoever is in charge. Only those with exclusive power have influence, so when Luo Cheng called back and said he was willing to accept it, Director Zhang and Team Leader Jiang both admired him.

Luo Cheng is really a person with little courage, and he doesn't even have a strong sense of responsibility. If the factory director is really frustrated, he will not have the courage to withstand the pressure, but will just quit. If you want Mao's sense of responsibility, he is a seventh-level engineer here, and he can have an easy job without being a factory director.

In Luo Cheng's concept, when a problem arises that cannot be solved, you have to hold on to the problem and I will solve the problem. If I can't solve the problem for the person who discovered it, I will solve it myself.

But if you really want to give up the position of factory director and choose a mule, you can actually be considered courageous in disguise. The benefits and power of the factory director are not low. Some people who are obsessed with officialdom may be excited by being a team leader.

A large number of factories must be built immediately, and several floors must be built at the same time. There is no need to save money at all. You must know that many processing equipment and machine tools are actually universal. How can you save a lot on engines? It can be used to expand the factory. What.

Just let Director Zhang talk about the expansion. There is no need to run errands. Now there are managers from the Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau at the construction site. Just walk over and talk. It’s almost the Chinese New Year, and even if many factories need to expand, they usually choose to do so in the spring of next year. People in this era are a bit conservative in their thinking. Even if the money in the factory account is not personal, they still like to keep some money. Unlike Luo Cheng, he started spending money even before he earned it. The money in his account was not enough to pay for the machine money next month.

There is work to be done at the construction site this month, and the people from the Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau are also very happy. As soon as Director Zhang said it, several teams were immediately recruited to start work at the same time.

And there is one more thing that needs to be arranged on the agenda today. The accessories for the production of cube trucks and three-wheeled trucks are about to arrive. Originally, it was just organized production, but Luo Cheng said last time that the previous apprentices had to be regularized and turned into assemblers. This time the vehicle assembly will be regarded as an assessment. conduct.

In the past two days, during the noon break, many apprentices who had to take assessments were watching the remaining square trucks and two unused three-wheeled trucks in the factory. It was obvious that there were just a few parts. , and the welding of the car bottom and frame is not tested. The main thing is that after the car bottom and chassis are welded, the assembly of accessories begins.

After assembly, as long as the steering wheel is installed and the three-wheel truck is the front, even if there is no body, once the components are installed in place, it can actually drive. Therefore, the assessment is mainly divided into two steps. First, check whether the installation is in place, and then start and drive for a double check. The main reason is that the detection may not be in place and the imperfections may be detected while driving.

Regarding this assessment, not only the apprentices who are about to be assessed are nervous, but the masters of the apprentices are also paying attention. This would happen if the apprentice taught by someone else passed the assessment and became a formal worker, but the apprentice taught by oneself failed. This is also a disgrace to their master.

Now that the vehicle accessories have arrived at the factory, it’s time to select appraisers. The assessment venue will be the new factory building. The masters from the repair shop can also visit if they have nothing to do. Anyway, it will be fair and impartial, and will not deliberately prevent those who take the assessment from passing the exam.

The person responsible for the assessment actually had nothing to choose from. When the cube car was first assembled, there were several regular workers helping. There was also Wangcheng, where Luo became the first to shout. So just choose Wangcheng and add three regular workers who were working together at that time.

Anyway, if this thing doesn't pass the test, it won't be covered. If the assembly is wrong or not in place, it will be covered. There is a second step of testing. The vehicle starts, accelerates, brakes, and even reverse gear must be tested. Once something goes wrong, not to mention that the person who takes the assessment will fail, it will be a slap in the face of the person responsible for the assessment.

Luo Cheng thought for a while, and simply held this assessment as an event. To have one, one must not only assemble it well, but also assemble it quickly.

Let's have another assessment competition. The one with the fastest speed will be rewarded with a chicken and a duck. A duck plus ten eggs for second place, and a chicken for third place. As for those who just passed the assessment, it was considered a good thing and they were rewarded with five eggs.

This matter is the job of Old Wei from the Propaganda Department. Let him write the announcement. Xu Haitang will also inform everyone about this through the loudspeaker. If you don't hear clearly, go read the announcement.
