Chapter 256 Thoughts of Technical Workers at the Forklift Factory

Factory Director Wu from Liancheng has been a little annoyed recently because of an instruction document last month. He worked well as the director of a forklift truck factory and became the director of a branch factory. Although the position and level have not changed, the autonomy has been affected.

You must know that forklifts are currently scarce vehicles in China and do not require planned production and can be expanded indefinitely. The main problem is whether it can be manufactured or not, and Liancheng Forklift Factory's vehicle production has always been a master-apprentice model. The production speed depends on the ability of the master craftsman.

According to Factory Manager Wu's vision, a master would lead an apprentice. The apprentice would be a somewhat skilled person. He would start his apprenticeship in one or two years and then increase production. He, the factory director, needs to be upgraded and will have to work for a few more years.

If this factory, where I am the director, becomes a branch factory, if it recruits people or adds more equipment than a certain amount, it will have to notify the main factory. Even the main factory has the right to decide the amount of output, which parts are produced in-house and which ones are processed and assembled by outside parties.

In other words, the branch factory assists the main factory in production. Otherwise, it is a national factory, and there is no point in becoming a branch factory of an automobile factory.

If we really obey the orders for the transfer of skilled workers, Liancheng's forklift factory will at least be scrapped. Without good technicians and workers, Liancheng's production of forklifts will really have to go step by step in the future.

I originally wanted to come to the automobile factory to learn technology, but I didn't learn the technology. Director Wu brought people here to assemble the assembly line, and they hammered the thick iron plates for more than 20 days. However, Director Wu learned the assembly line production method and planned to carry out production reforms after returning to Liancheng. With this method, apprentices can play a big role.

Factory Director Wu even went to the guest house to find some masters and asked if this production method could be used in their forklift factory. After the masters thought about it for a while, they all thought it was okay. There are many parts in the assembly of a forklift. As the saying goes, practice makes perfect. What masters like them are familiar with is the overall assembly. It is impossible for apprentices to assemble the whole. Even if they learn a little in one day, it will take a long time.

What's more, the masters like to keep their own children, so it's difficult to get started so quickly. But if one person is responsible for assembling one or several parts, and there is no need to consider the assembly principle and why it is assembled in this way, he will become proficient after working for a few days.

In this way, it doesn't matter how many days it takes an apprentice to get started, but just like a car captain, it is the master master who really checks and inspects the car. Master craftsmen no longer need to hide some techniques. If you really want to train anyone, then we will teach you step by step how to assemble various parts.

In the automobile factory, skilled masters are either very relaxed or very hard. Easy means that you are not capable enough and can only be responsible for the following quality inspection and teaching work. It is the truly skilled masters who do the hard work. They are used only when there are new products and jobs with high technical requirements.

It can be said that in automobile factories, level 6 workers are definitely busier than those level 3 and 4 skilled workers. Only senior workers can have access to high-end products.

Let’s talk about welders. Even low-level welders won’t let you touch this cube car 2.0. This is a car that costs tens of thousands of dollars, and you can be proud of it even if you talk about it. For those who work as welders in automobile factories, those with poor skills may only be able to weld iron pallets, while those with good skills may weld in places with high requirements.

So in the same factory, if someone asks you what you weld in the automobile factory, you can only answer welding pallets. Others are welding commercial cars, and if their skills are poor, they will lose face.

The same is true for sheet metal workers and fitters and forgers. The cube car 1.0 and 2.0 are not the same car at all. Except for the square shape, the price difference is more than ten times. Those with poor skills can only get cheap cars.

Therefore, in the automobile factory, even though the high-level technicians are busy, those who are not above or below are relaxed. But if people are willing, they can work more without losing a piece of meat. As for monthly benefits, level four or above is a watershed. The monthly food purchase quota alone has increased by level four or above.

It is true that your fourth-level worker can be a team leader or something in the workshop. It is relatively easy. Being a team leader does not require you to buy more than five kilograms of grain. In the automobile factory, level 4 and above are not included. Each additional level can buy ten more kilograms of grain. Level 6 and above are level 7 and 8 workers, and each additional level will buy an additional fifteen kilograms of grain.

Of course, standards have been set, but there are still no workers above Level 7 in automobile factories. You must know that there are not many eighth-level workers in the steel rolling mill with 10,000 people in Sijiu City, let alone the automobile factory here in Ngee Ann.

However, the steel rolling mill in Ngee Ann has Grade 8 workers. If workers want to improve their skills, they can arrange for someone to study next year.

At Liancheng Forklift Factory, many of the skilled workers who came with Director Wu wanted to stay at the main factory. They are all fifth- and sixth-level skilled workers. According to their level, it means that if they work in a car factory, they can buy thirty or forty kilograms of internal grain every month. And these grains are all fine grains like rice.

In addition to the monthly benefits, I am not afraid of being jealous, their benefits in Liancheng are not as high as those of temporary apprentices here.

You must know that they produce forklifts. The demand for these products is huge, but they are also very targeted where they are needed. It has nothing to do with many companies. Unlike automobile factories, many companies and units need cube trucks and three-wheeled trucks from automobile factories. If you cooperate with any company, the benefits will come.

Moreover, in Ngee Ann, car factory workers seem to feel superior to others. After get off work, when others hear that you are from a car factory, who wouldn’t be envious? Just like a salesperson at a supply and marketing cooperative. In Liancheng, the forklift factory is also located in a remote location. When they hear that it manufactures forklifts, ordinary people are just curious and ask what kind of forklift it is. Then~~there is no more.

At the beginning, the skilled workers from Liancheng were still discussing in low voices behind their backs whether they should stay at the main factory. You must know that only those with high skills can come here. The workers currently staying in Liancheng Forklift Factory are not as skilled as them.

This is not like leaving home. This is obviously an opportunity. When you come here, you can also go to the steel rolling mill to learn skills. There is no such opportunity in Liancheng, and the benefits are so good. Many of them even found out about it in the car factory these days. Regardless of whether the automobile factory has been recruiting workers from outside, that is because the automobile factory is expanding rapidly. Their internal regular employees generally recommend workers. As long as they do not violate the principles and reach the appropriate age, they will basically give priority to the relatives and family members of internal employees.

If this group of people comes to the automobile factory, they will definitely be taken seriously, because now the senior workers in the automobile factory are all from Director Zhao's side, and the people there are from the military factory. If you have any technical questions, you don’t dare to ask people there for advice. Even if you do ask questions, people will answer them politely. But after all, with that kind of identity, there is always some distance between him and the people in other workshops.

Therefore, when this group of skilled workers from the forklift factory come over, the workshops will definitely take a fancy to them. And if we don't come now, in the future, when the automobile factory develops and everyone gradually improves their technology, they may fall behind. Especially since you, Liancheng, are from out of town and your accent is different from Ngee Ann.

If the skills of the locals have been upgraded to level five or six, and your Liancheng master comes over again, at the same level, the locals will definitely be more likely to be reused.

Therefore, don’t think that you are good because you have skills. The car factory is just temporarily short of people. Do you think that the director of our automobile factory is the same as your Director Wu? Our factory director, Luo, is someone from the military region. He thought that without you, we wouldn’t be able to eat pigs with hair on them. I am not afraid to tell you that Director Luo directly ordered the military factory to adjust equipment and send technicians to the automobile factory. There will be one to two hundred skilled workers and engineers.

Guess what the technical level of the people sent by the military factory will be. At least level 4 or above? Just kidding, do you think the military factory is your forklift factory? There are more than 30 level 5 and 6 workers because of the integration of several factories.

Generally, low-tech tasks in military factories are processed by local enterprises. People with poor skills cannot enter the military factory at all. Even if they do, they are the children of their masters. Apprentices are not recruited at all. Therefore, the lowest level of military factory workers who can come to the automobile factory is Level 6.

Anyway, in the guest house now, every night you can hear Liancheng's technical workers talking about staying at the main factory. Nowadays, people no longer avoid Director Wu. Not only do they not avoid it, some people even deliberately want Director Wu to hear it.

In a few days, they will return to Liancheng. They must respond to the arrangements from above and contribute to the country's exports. They must not be afraid of hardship and make the self-sacrifice of leaving their homeland. They want to dedicate themselves, and no one can stop them.

"Master Wang, what you said is true or false. This is no joke."

"Master Zhang, why am I lying to you? The logistics director said it himself. Not to mention that just by reporting in advance, you can enjoy the benefits of the automobile factory this month. Even if Director Wu knows, so what, at most I don't want the new year's goods sent by the forklift factory this year. I don’t believe what the forklift factory can do.”

"Isn't the car factory afraid that we won't come after receiving the goods?"

"Don't come? Do you dare to come after you have received the things? You must understand that the forklift factory is a branch of the automobile factory. If you don't receive the things, you can be transferred to other factories without any problem. If you receive the things, you think you can run away. Besides, you don’t come here if you have brain problems. The whole family can live a good life here, and my son may be able to arrange a job immediately. Anyway, I will report first tomorrow and support the main factory. This is the requirement from above, Director Wu It's the boss who is bigger. If he is not released after the new year, I will report him to the labor union."

"Master Wang, why are you in such a hurry? Are you a little impulsive? Why don't you discuss it with your family?"

"What is there to discuss? I am the head of the family. My two sons are neither married nor employed. I have thought about it. I will definitely live a good life here. But you, Lao Zhang, are different. Your son is in Liancheng. I have a job, which is different from my family's situation. But I definitely want to report it immediately. We will go back in a few days, and the car factory will have some kind of product display. On that day, New Year's benefits will be distributed to employees in advance. I will report tomorrow. , we can also buy 45 kilograms of rice back, and the automobile factory also distributes pork and various things. Even Director Zhang said, the reporter, they can also be responsible for buying train tickets to send us back to Liancheng. There is no need for everyone to squeeze into one car Truck.”

Master Wang's words immediately touched Master Zhang's heart. If he had not been worried, he might have followed Master Wang and report with him tomorrow. But his son has a job in Liancheng and has a wife. Now I come to Ngee Ann for the benefits of the car factory. What will I do when I get old? How will I take care of myself if I am not with my son? Should I ask my son to come too~~~?

Hey, it doesn't seem impossible. Master Zhang suddenly had an idea in his heart. His son has a job, but he hasn't become a full-time employee yet. Although he has been working for almost two years, according to the situation, in one or two years, he will have the opportunity to become a full-time employee. of. But so what if he becomes a full-time employee, the salary can be more than ten yuan at most. But compared with here, their benefits can completely offset that salary. And as long as you work hard here, you might be able to become a full-time employee soon. There are plenty of permanent jobs in the automobile factory here.

As long as the automobile factory is willing to let his son come to work, it doesn't matter if Liancheng's job is not needed, and father and son can still work in the same factory in the future. Maybe even the daughter-in-law’s job can be solved.

"Master Wang, you said our children want to work in the automobile factory, will you accept them?"

"Probably. Your son already has a job. Why do you ask? ~~Hmm? Could it be~~?"

~~~~

The skilled workers brought by Director Wu are indeed of some use. Luo Cheng specifically asked Director Zhang to try to dig it out, not to mention that the local unit had previously made the forklift factory a branch of the automobile factory to support technical workers.

Luo Cheng had already thought about it anyway, if these workers did not come to work in the automobile factory. After the New Year, he exercised the power of the main factory and asked the forklift factory to not only maintain stable profits for forklifts with backward production, but also assign other tasks to produce some parts for the main factory.

The main factory does not contribute money. Anyway, it is disguised profits that are imported to the main factory. If it were not for local financial reasons, the main factory cannot directly take away the profits of the branch factories. The profits generated wherever they are must be turned over to the other place. Car factories don't need to use this method.

Anyway, all the money earned by the forklift factory is spent, and the product factory becomes a processing factory. This is reasonable. As long as it doesn't cause the forklift factory to lose money, it's fine. In fact, even if it does, the main factory will be responsible for making up for it, and there is no need to deliberately let the branch factory lose money.

And if this group of skilled workers could come to the automobile factory, Luo Cheng would not bother and let the forklift factory fend for itself.

Ngee Ann Automobile Factory, even though it was night, the security team was still patrolling seriously and responsibly. A large parking shed was built in the open space of the automobile factory, and many produced vehicles were placed under the shed. The cheapest ones cost several thousand, and the expensive ones cost tens of thousands. Even if they know that no one dares to drive the car, if something goes wrong, the security department really can't afford it.

Especially for the two rows of new models, the gray and white ones cost more than 60,000 yuan, and the black ones cost more than 80,000 yuan. They are all cars with glass installed. This can be regarded as the first batch of cars with glass installed by an automobile factory. Moreover, these cars will be displayed to the public today, and the security department's inspections have been stepped up. Even for the sake of safety, security personnel are directly equipped with guns when conducting vehicle inspections. Anyone found to be causing sabotage deserves to be shot to death.

But yes, those who die from work-related injuries these days can only receive about 500 in blood compensation. If a vehicle worth tens of thousands of dollars is damaged, it will be regarded as damage to national property. The amount is huge. If you don’t kill him on the spot, you will be caught. It is also possible to eat peanuts.

Recently, the security staff has expanded again. Section Chief Zhang is still the section chief, but there is an additional deputy section chief in the security room. And if the car factory continues to develop like this, fast development is a good thing. As the team grows, his level will also increase accordingly. But it was too fast, making Section Chief Zhang feel a little panicked.

Schools, movie theaters, ice skating rinks, clinics, etc. The ice rink has been built and opened and needs to be patrolled. The movie theater is said to be open these days, and one or two people need to be arranged. The school will definitely use it next year, at least a security team of about four people. In the case of a clinic, inspectors are also needed.

In addition, the automobile factory is still expanding. Section Chief Zhang knows that if he cannot be promoted tomorrow, there will definitely be an airborne security director coming. Therefore, Section Chief Zhang now hopes that the Security Department will grow and develop, but he does not want it to happen so quickly. At least he had just been promoted not long ago, and without any meritorious performance, it would be difficult for him to continue his promotion.

As for the automobile factory, the workers now are all honest. Metal is so expensive, and auto parts are also expensive, and there are many things with copper. I didn’t see anyone stealing it, and these cadres didn’t molest the female workers. When I was working as a repair shop, it was understandable that I didn't tease her, after all, I didn't have anyone to tease me about.

But now there are many female workers in automobile factories, and there are factory flowers. Of course, if you go to molest the factory flower, you are seeking death. She is the cousin of the factory director. However, radish and green vegetables have their own merits. Some people think that Zheng Xue is pretty, but she always likes to hold a book and read it when commuting to and from get off work. Ordinary workers feel that they can't even think about it. Maybe Xu Haitang still has a chance. Of course, there are many nurses in the infirmary in the factory now. It is said that they like to take off men's pants and give injections to their buttocks. They don't know that when giving injections, they deliberately take off their pants to make the nurses smaller. When a girl sees it, will she fall in love with her because of her size?

But when it comes to teasing, no one really dares. It's such a good job in a car factory, but if someone commits a crime and loses it, his family will be beaten to death. And when I work in a car factory, I'm worried that I won't have a matchmaker to introduce me to someone.

Anyway, the current security situation in the automobile factory is very good, and there is no chance for Section Chief Zhang to make meritorious deeds. If he really wants to catch him, he will catch him every time. That is when the cook in the cafeteria brings leftovers. Even if the leftovers belong to the public, you will definitely be punished if caught. But only people who have no brains will catch this. It’s a temporary pleasure to catch it once. But such things are most criticized by education. In more serious cases, they are internal labor reform, cleaning toilets, etc. But if there is no order from above to catch him, his hands will be shaking when serving food in the future.

As the days passed, Luo Cheng checked in more and more items in the system. Vegetables, meat, game, and fruits were all obtained by Luo Cheng. During the Chinese New Year, he doesn't care about the factory's benefits. After rice is free, his current goal is to eat well.

As the day of vehicle display was approaching, I thought that many of the people invited were respectable local people in Ngee Ann. Now the canteen can no longer purchase vegetables, only cabbage and radishes.

The day before the presentation, Luo Cheng also generously put his personal interests at the service of his own business and took out a lot of vegetables from the system. Of course, money still has to be collected. Vegetables that originally cost a few cents in normal seasons are calculated as pennies per pound. Don’t think it’s too expensive. The boss wants to eat it, but it’s not available at this price yet.

Of course, Luo Cheng plans to plant greenhouses next year. Off-season vegetables are easier to grow in the south than in the north. Even in winter, the temperature will not be very low.
