Chapter XVII: Military Industrial Enterprises

The most important part of making elbows, Li Yan knew a long time ago that there was a company in Linzhou Province with this strength, and they happened to have the same specifications of elbow molds, but their standard molds are 90 degrees at right angles; Li Yan first had to communicate with their technicians and tell them how to combine two 90-degree molds into 180 degrees, and then bend them.

When Li Yan first proposed this idea to the other party, a senior engineer on the other side immediately laughed and said: "Mr. Li, we have also dealt with it a few times, but this time you said a little too outrageous, our ninety elbows are all national standards, and it is impossible for you to do this 180 degrees, otherwise the country would have come up with a relevant 180 degree elbow standard." A non-standard 180-degree elbow can't do this bending at all? Not to mention the thinning of the wall thickness, the elongation, etc., how do you solve the folds inside the ninety?"

Li Yan expected that the other party would ask these questions, so he turned around and put the backpack on the back of the chair to his lap, took out a folder from it, and handed it to the other party's factory director Wu.

After opening it and taking a look, Director Wu handed it to Wan Feng, the senior engineer who was sitting next to him and asked questions. People who are engaged in technology and have real skills have different intuitions about technology.

Wan Gong took the folder, opened it and just glanced at it, then immediately took out a pair of glasses from his pocket, superimposed them on the pair of glasses he was wearing just now, turned around and put the folder on Director Wu's desk, straightened his waist, lowered his head and slowly slid his right fingers on the A4 paper.

After seeing it, Director Wu smiled and said to Li Yan: "Mr. Li, it seems that your thing has made Wan Gong interested." ”

No one in the office spoke much, and they all looked at Wan Feng, who was studying seriously.

After a long time, Wan Gong raised his head and said to Li Yan: "Mr. Li, you have done a good job in this plan, if you don't see your name in the drawings drawn above, I doubt that this plan is not what you came up with; I have been doing this for 30 years, I have never thought about it like this; it seems that our thinking has been restricted, a few days ago I was still in the education technology department that the little guy wanted to have breakthrough thinking, but now I know that I am also imprisoned in a can." I remember a long time ago there was a Hong Kong song called 'A Canned Man', and now I feel a little bit like laughing at 100 steps and 50 steps. ”

Li Yan hurriedly said: "Wan Gong, I'm a miscellaneous, crazy fantasist. Whether it can succeed or not depends on you, and whether the tooling I designed is reasonable or not depends on you. ”

Wan Feng lowered his head, squinted at Li Yan from above his glasses and said, "Mr. Li, although we haven't had much contact over the years, you should know that I don't like to be a sycophant and engage in falsehood." Engaging in technology is one is one, and it can't be fake, and if it's fake, something will happen, especially if we do big things, once something happens, there will be a lot of loss, and it is very unsafe. You've done a perfect job of this design, so I still need to look at it, and I'll just do it. Don't worry, you're afraid that something will happen in the future, so you can shirk your responsibility, isn't it? If you have a problem with this, I can't do it, and I can't afford to lose this old face. ”

Director Wu saw that Wan Gong was a little moved, and said: "Mr. Li, Wan Gong is like this, but as long as Wan Gong nods, there will be no problem technically." ”

Wan Feng smiled at this time, and after removing the pair of glasses he added, he said to Li Yan and Director Wu: "Can I take this document away?" I will ask them to make a copy of it, and immediately take it to the technical department to open the eyes of these little guys." ”

Li Yan smiled and said, "Wan Gong, even if you take it, I still have a copy here." I'll leave the rest to you. ”

Wan Feng stood up and said to Li Yan with a smile: "You negotiate the contract with Director Wu first, after the contract is negotiated, you can wait with confidence, I see that you are expected to take a month, it should be no problem." ”

Wan Feng, who had just walked out of the door of the office, suddenly turned around and came back to Li Yan and said: "If the final price is not negotiated, you can't take back the tooling designed on this plan, don't say that we steal your technology." ”

These words made Director Wu laugh and said: "Wan Gong, you better hurry up and make copies, Mr. Li will not be so stingy, besides, how can there be a contract that Mr. Li came to negotiate before, which was not negotiated?"

This factory is a military industrial enterprise, it belongs to the third-tier enterprises relocated, the geographical location is not very good, with the change of policy, most of them have moved away, and these continue to take root, or they can't go back to their former hometowns, and the people who can't leave here anymore.

For example, it is very simple to negotiate the price with Director Wu, Li Yan took out a form and opened the IBM laptop he carried with him, this computer is already Li Yan's most valuable belongings, and he thought that he bought it for more than 10,000 yuan.

The two of them began to negotiate with Li Yan's price list one item at a time, and marked it, and Li Yan directly entered the changed data into the EXCEL sheet on the computer. The total price, as well as the individual sub-items and related prices, are immediately presented.

Director Wu finally smiled and said: "Mr. Li, I am the happiest to negotiate the contract with you, how can there be any intrigue and unreasonable price reduction." I'll tell you directly how much money I make, we always have a reasonable profit, and you have taken this form into account. We all know how much money we can make from doing business. By the way, did you calculate the price like this before, why didn't you take it out earlier?"

Li Yan smiled: "Yes, this is my habit. The previous things were simple, so I don't need to go into such detail. ”

Director Wu nodded and said, "That's right, the price is so determined?"

Li Yan nodded and said, "No problem." ”

Director Wu smiled and shouted out of the door: "Xiao Zhang, you come in, take this away and make a contract." ”

Everything that followed went well.

Exactly one month, four elbows came to Lai Mingchang's field, Lai Mingchang looked at the four stainless steel elbows and said, "Mr. Li, these four elbows are worth a little money, right?"

Li Yan smiled: "It's okay." ”

Lai Mingchang nodded and said: "Lao Wei told me, I'll say hello to them, by the way, I'm afraid I can't do you at the level of these welders now, you have to invite a good welder to come over, and when the time comes, I will let my workers follow and learn." ”

Li Yan nodded and said: "This is no problem, my welding machine will arrive in the afternoon, and I will not pull this welding machine away at that time, and offset part of the rent, how about it?"

Lai Mingchang waved his fat and short slap at Li Yan and said, "What kind of rent do you say, if it's empty, it's empty for you to use." I don't have any other hobbies, I just like to make friends. In the future, as long as you use it, you can use the venue here. Why don't I just make an office for you and you come over and work?"

Li Yan smiled: "I'm embarrassed to bother you so much, I'm in debt now." ”

Lai Mingchang shook his head and said: "It's not that you are in debt, it's your company's debt, and you are a limited liability company, what does this have to do with you personally? You don't recognize that they have no way to take you." If they harass you, you can just call the police, it's okay, just come to me, I don't think anyone will dare to come to me to trouble you. ”

Lai Mingchang's words moved Li Yan very much, for so many days, only Lai Mingchang has made such a direct statement. Li Yan looked at the pair of black and red thick lips trembling when Lai Mingchang spoke now, and he was no longer the first in the world as rumored; although there was some anger in the rivers and lakes, they were all sincere and honest, which made Li Yan's heart very warm.

Li Yan said: "I won't come to participate, but I'll put my words here, and in the future, as long as Lai always has a place where he needs, just speak." ”

Lai Mingchang said: "I just need you to come over now, Lao Wei values you very much." He's now designing an automated sorting system, and if you want to come, you'll be fine. ”

Li Yan asked: "Automatic sorting system, what is sorting?"

Lai Mingchang said: "There is a large construction steel pipe leasing company, in order to reduce labor and improve the speed of steel pipe sorting, let us make one for him." ”

After thinking about it for a while, Li Yan smiled lightly: "This can be tried, it is done, the market is not small." I'm done with this, and I'll go find Master Wei. ”

With Lai Mingchang's strong cooperation, the final processing process was very smooth, and a week later, the four finished products were neatly placed on Lai Mingchang's site, waiting for the delivery of Yicheng Chemical Group Company to arrive, and then delivery.
