Chapter 419 Pressure Vessel Certification

In the 80s, if someone had 10,000 yuan at home, it was a desperate thing. Even if www.biquge.info is in Shengjing, if there are fewer brothers and sisters, if they join the work later, and the family spends more, I am afraid that they will not be able to make up such a large number of money.

Chen Guilin's monthly basic salary is only more than 100 yuan, and occasionally it can reach 200 yuan if you count bonuses and benefits. Over the course of a year, not spending a penny is an income of 2,000 yuan. But how can a man live without spending money? A man with a daughter who is not too old and a half is everywhere where money is used.

In Chen Guilin's passbook now, let alone 10,000 yuan, it is only 12,300 yuan when it is full. Not to mention the pianos imported from abroad, even if you don't buy Xinghai pianos, the Pearl River brand of the big road goods will cost more than 5,000 yuan. Coupled with the formalities and supply tickets required if the individual buys it, the piano has never been a cheap instrument.

A piano, Chen Guilin is 10,000 yuan stumped the hero.

"Brother Chen!" Wang Kangmei stopped Chen Guilin, who had just gotten off work, and took out an envelope from his pocket: "Brother, I have been working for a short time, and you know, I just talked about a partner recently." If there is more, you will take these five hundred. ”

"Anti-American, this money ......" Chen Guilin subconsciously blocked Wang Kangmei's hand, but the refusal was not so resolute.

"Brother Chen, take it, no matter who Xiao Yuan is with, our colleagues and friends will put together this piano for you. ”

"Brother Chen, don't be sad. Wang Kangmei handed over a cigarette: "Come, smoke." In fact, if you want me to say, for the good of Xiao Yuan, the United States is indeed much stronger than ours. You look at the life of the Americans on TV, can we compare?"

Zhang Xiaoju is willing to come back, which shows that she has Xiao Yuan in her heart, is there anyone who doesn't like her own children when she is a mother? Xiao Yuan is going to be a freshman in high school this year, and it is time to be sensible. When she grows up, you'll still be her father. ”

"I've thought about this too, but Xiao Yuan is my daughter after all, and I can't bear her!"

Chen Guilin lit a cigarette with the help of Wang Kangmei's fire, squinted his eyes and took a hard breath, tears flashing faintly in the corners of his eyes.

"For more than a year, Xiao Yuan was wronged in school, hid and secretly cried, talked in his dreams and called his mother in the middle of the night. But if I want to send her to the United States, my heart hurts like a piece of flesh!"

"Zhang Xiaoju wants to say that she is good to Xiao Yuan, I believe it! But her heart is also ruthless, in order to live a good life, she threw me and Xiao Yuan down and ran to the United States, one day she can also throw Xiao Yuan down again? She has been poor since she was a child, and she has come out of the countryside step by step. It's not easy to think about it now, complaining that I don't know how to be motivated, or maybe! I've been working in our company for almost 20 years, my home is here, my relatives, friends, colleagues, my life and my whole life are here, we didn't go to the United States when we were young, and now we are not living a good life? If my family is not good, I will run away, abandon my husband and children, I!"

"Brother Chen!" Wang Kangmei grabbed Chen Guilin, shook his head and said, "Don't say these words, it's unfair to you and Zhang Xiaoju." Even if we lose, we have to stand up straight, don't we!"

Chen Guilin spit out a puff of cigarette, then threw the half-smoked cigarette on the ground, and vigorously stepped on the cigarette butt to extinguish: "Anti-American, you are right, I lost my temper." We don't complain about this, everyone has their own ambitions! The sky is falling, and it can't crush our backbone!"

"Yes!" Wang Kangmei nodded heavily.

"I don't want to think so much now, I just think, how can I get a piano!" Chen Guilin frowned and said: "There are two problems in buying a piano, one is money and the other is bills. ”

"The Xinghai brand costs tens of thousands of yuan, and the Pearl River brand costs more than 5,000 yuan. Even if everyone scrapes together, the money is not easy to come up with. Lao Xu introduced me to the work of a few township factories, and it is difficult to say whether I can advance a part of the remuneration. Even if you don't talk about money, it is not easy to buy a piano personally, and you have to have a school or performance unit to open a letter of introduction or supply tickets. ”

Wang Kangmei smiled when she heard this: "With Brother Chen's ability to weld in your hands, Quan Shengjing can't find a hand." Those township enterprises can invite you, and the wages are still poor? Our grand name is here, and we don't have to be afraid that you will run away halfway, right? If I were those factory directors, I would advance the payment, and I could invite you again after forming a good fate. That is to say, Brother Chen, you are bent on our factory, and now there are those who do private work for those township enterprises, and it is easy to make money. ”

"There's a lot of work in the factory, and I don't usually have time to work outside. Chen Guilin shook his head and sighed: "This is in a hurry to use the money, I asked Lao Xu to help me transfer the class to next week." After this week, I was still able to work in the factory. You don't know that the DuPont chemical technology introduced in the factory is now the only one who can weld high-pressure tanks. ”

"Brother Chen, you're just brainless!" Wang Kangmei smiled helplessly, admiring Chen Guilin but also helpless.

As the name suggests, Shengjing Heavy Machinery Factory produces heavy industrial products with excessive dimensions. Some key super-large components in industries such as mining metallurgy, steel rolling and casting, power generation and hydropower, and the heavy products are a pillar of the country.

In large chemical equipment, the reaction vessel responsible for chemical reactions in extreme environments such as high pressure and high temperature is naturally this unconventional product.

The agreement between ST and DuPont is not only to introduce complete equipment, but also to import the manufacturing capacity of these equipment. To put it bluntly, a complete set of equipment for large chemical industry is a bunch of pipes and jars. Some of them can be produced in-house, while others are quite difficult to digest.

The production of reaction vessels belongs to those projects that are gnawed hard bones for digestion and absorption. And this hard bone, looking at the domestic enterprises that can go on and are willing to go, there are really few choices.

After some consideration, this key technical project finally fell into the hands of Shengjing Heavy Machinery Factory.

In the production of reaction vessels, there is no doubt that the welding technology of the vessel is the top priority. The only one in Shengjing Heavy Machinery Factory who can undertake this task is Chen Guilin's working group.

Chen Guilin has to go outside to do a week's private work, but it is conceivable that the progress of a key project of a large chemical industry in China can only be delayed for a week. Placed in the ordinary, this is simply not possible. However, at this time, Lao Xu, who was the director of the workshop, not only did not object, but also personally helped him find a private job. Although Chen Guilin thought that he was a little sorry for the factory, no one among the colleagues around him objected to it. Even other leaders in the factory can only say that the last sentence has a reason, and the next is not an example.

If this is a stubborn disease of state-owned enterprises, to be honest, the definition of "stubborn disease" should inevitably be revised. Whether factory operation should give priority to efficiency or take into account human feelings may be a research direction that operators will debate for decades.

But for a state-owned enterprise like Shengzhong, there is no need to think about such a killing of brain cells for the time being. Because in the 80s, it was obviously still dominated by human feelings.

This favor is not only for the workers below, but also for everyone up and down the enterprise.

Lin Zongtang and Yan Yongnian are not the first time to come to Shengjing, as the deputy director of the Department of Mechanical Engineering of Tsinghua University, Yan Yongnian, the heavy industry center of Shengjing, has not been absent.

But compared with Lin Zongtang, he can only be regarded as an authentic "outsider".

As a leader of the industrial system -- let's put it this way, why should the Northeast be called the eldest son of the republic? Why should Shengjing be called the cradle of China's industry? Looking at the 80s, there were many leaders in the industrial system who had worked in the Northeast. Even the current No. 2 chief, who has just taken office, was the deputy chief engineer of the Northeast Electric Power Administration and the director of the power plant in Bohai Province.

Lin Zongtang is no exception, his first job after graduating from Tsinghua University was the head of the industrial section of the Northeast Bureau. The second position is the deputy director of Shengjing No. 1 Machine Tool Factory. Having worked in Shengjing for ten years, it is not too wrong to say that this is his second hometown.

Sheng Chong organized the resumption of production when he was just liberated, and Lin Zongtang's work achievements were also in it.

Over the years, he has been the deputy leader of the leading group of major technical equipment, and many important technical breakthroughs are inseparable from dealing with Shengzhong. If you want to talk about the love with the grand incense, it is really entangled.

"Old Lin, why did you come here by yourself like this!"

The solemn director of the factory Mo Gaowen ran out of the factory with a group of people: "Make a phone call when you come over, at least let us arrange the place where we live! How can you be like this, let the leader carry his bag and find it, how can the above look at us, I have to say that the heavy tail is going to the sky!"

This is Yan Yongnian, deputy director of the Department of Mechanical Engineering of Tsinghua University, and the double hydraulic press technology is inseparable from him. I'm coming over this time, and I'll call him over by the way!" Lin Zongtang first introduced Mo Gaowen, waited for the two to greet each other, and then threw the suitcase in his hand to him: "Isn't the meeting time set at ten o'clock today? I can be reimbursed by staying in the hotel myself, and it will save you an additional burden in the factory!"

"Hey, I thought you booked a train for today's daytime, how can there be a ministerial-level leader like you!" Mo Gaowen couldn't cry or laugh, so he had no choice but to invite Lin Zongtang and Yan Yongnian into the factory.

This is not the first time Lin Zongtang has come to Shengzhong, otherwise he would not dare to talk to the ministerial-level leaders of the National Wu Academy if he gave Mo Gaowen a leopard gall. It's really that Lin Zongtang usually doesn't have any shelves, except for when he works, he is quite easy to talk in life. Several times to the heavy work, not only do not send cars from the factory, but also pay according to the price of meals, and live in state-run hotels, which is really not to cause trouble to the units below as much as possible. Even if the people below have any objections or offenses to him, it is not a matter of principle, and he has never been seen to make a big move.

is humble and approachable, which cannot be used to describe Lin Zongtang, because these words are still superior in their bones, so that being kind is praise. On Lin Zongtang, he really regarded himself as as serious as everyone else around him.

"Director Mo, you should also know my intentions, right? This time, China Railway Construction Investment has invested in you to build a 35,000-ton hydraulic press, what do you mean in the factory? If you want me to say, you have to seize such a good opportunity! If we can build 35,000 multi-directional die forging machines in China, the demand will not be small. If the performance and cost are suitable, it is not a problem to win a part of the processing projects abroad......"

When Lin Zongtang talked about work, it was like a different person in an instant. The kind old man was gone, but he was as aggressive as a lion.

"Old Lin, wait a minute. Mo Gaowen hurriedly waved his hand, embarrassed and proud, and said: "I have to review with you, we have not done our work meticulously enough, and there is something wrong with the time." Originally, it was arranged to discuss the 35,000-ton hydraulic press with China Railway Construction Investment and Erzhong today, but the progress of introducing DuPont's technology exceeded expectations, and the production of large chemical high-pressure vessels was completed one month ahead of schedule. DuPont sent a delegation to prepare for a technical test of our production. ”

"Oh, you have completely mastered the production technology of large chemical pressure vessels?" Lin Zongtang looked at Mo Gaowen with some surprise and nodded.

"Yes, one month ahead of schedule! The people of DuPont were also very surprised, and it is said that this speed is not even up to the Americans!" Mo Gaowen straightened his chest and said proudly: "As long as we pass the test of DuPont, we will be able to get the quality certification of DuPont, which marks that we have thoroughly mastered the manufacturing technology of large chemical pressure vessels!"

"Okay, very good!" Lin Zongtang didn't look angry at all, and said with great interest: "In this way, can I watch the inspection process of DuPont?

"That's great!" Mo Gaowen was overjoyed, no matter how much a ministerial-level leader has no shelf, he is also a leader. Being able to have a senior leader present when he shows his face is even more pleasing than going out and picking up money.

"Let's go, let's go see how the people at DuPont work. ”

……

"Mr. Steven, this is our workshop for the production of large chemical pressure vessels. In order to undertake this work, our factory invested 600,000 RMB to re-design and construct this plant to produce pressure vessels that meet the requirements. ”

"Secretary He, Mr. Steven said that the pressure vessel you produce belongs to the A1 level of ultra-high pressure, and there is no room for the slightest mistake in the production process. According to the scientific production schedule, you should be able to complete this batch of products in a month, why did you advance it?"

In the pressure vessel production workshop of Shengjing Heavy Machinery Factory, in the middle of countless huge and powerful steel machinery, a group of small human beings stood in the middle of the open space of the production workshop, judging the production work in progress.

DuPont sent a five-member team, and the leader who was temporarily responsible for the reception was He Renming, secretary of the factory party committee. Between the grand reception team and DuPont's inspection team, there were translators sent by the Provincial Foreign Affairs Office to help the two sides communicate and understand each other.

"Isn't it good that we finished the work a month early?"

He Renming was a little inexplicable when he heard the words relayed by the translator: "Our Chinese workers are very good and hard-working, and in order to complete this work as soon as possible, we have fully mobilized the enthusiasm of the workers and greatly carried forward the sense of ownership. Through hard work and 100 days of hard work, we finally achieved the results of one month ahead of schedule!"

"No, no, it's not scientific. Steven, the leader of the inspection team, shook his head, still not believing He Renming's words: "This is not a job that can be overcome by human will, the most time-consuming welding work, is a great test of people's concentration and physical strength." We have a study in the United States that if a welder works for more than six hours straight, then his chances of making mistakes will increase rapidly. If you are working overtime to shorten the time to catch up with the schedule, I doubt that the products you produce are qualified. ”

"But we have already done quality testing on the product, and there is no problem at all. He Renming glared and said eagerly.

"I have reservations about it. Steven's face was full of distrust.

"Okay, let's move on to the on-site audit. After asking the other four, Steven began the on-site audit with the form in hand.

The so-called on-site audit is relative to the data audit. Steven's five people have conducted a detailed investigation of the technical documents of the Chinese side, and the results are naturally no problem - the information documents are the English translation of the Chinese version provided by DuPont.

But words are unfounded, and seeing is believing. Whether the technology is really implemented in production is the most critical place.

For DuPont's certification, not only the production technology requirements, but also the production environment have certain regulations. For example, the process design of the production equipment, the degree of completion of the regulations for the separation of regions, the implementation of production safety measures in the production process, the planning and hygiene standards of the production site, and the level of technical training of the staff. At first glance, these items do not seem to be directly related to whether the products are qualified, but if these items do not meet the standards, it is obvious that the products produced do not have a stable level of quality.

Even if the technical requirements can be achieved temporarily, the probability of making mistakes is undoubtedly much higher than if they are unconsciously achieved after reaching the standard.

This is also why Shengzhong invested heavily in the transformation of the plant, although the pressure vessel production workshop may not be the workshop with the highest technical level, but now it is certainly the most strictly managed workshop.

After two hours of grading, the five members of Steven's group looked a lot better, and it was clear that they were satisfied with the environmental scores.

And then the production link is scored. As long as the production link score can be passed, and the final product has no quality problems, then Shengzhong can get DuPont's pressure vessel production certification.

With this certification, it is not only a recognition of the product level of Shengzhong pressure vessel, but also can be used as a basis to participate in the competition of foreign projects, and even earn foreign exchange!

"Steven, there's no problem with their pressure vessel forging technique. ”

Two DuPont staff members who specialize in forging work inspection walked back and shook their heads at Steven: "Their equipment is a second-hand product that we provide, and the operators are fully trained and have the same level of technical mastery as our workers. The work operation meets the production requirements, and the production environment is even above the normal requirements. To be honest, the Chinese are not lying, they do have very good workers. ”

"Forging is more of a test of equipment, which doesn't mean much. Steven was noncommittal and flipped through the table in his hand: "We all know that the key to the pressure vessel is welding, and the welding place is the most vulnerable place of the pressure vessel. Only if the welding can meet the standards, the products they produce can be trusted. ”

"Well, you're right. ”

Steven turned to look at the other two and nodded at them, "Dave, Kate, welding inspection is your job, I hope you don't let DuPont's reputation be discredited." ”

"Of course, Steven. Dave smiled: "Don't worry, speaking of welding technology, when I came here to train them a year ago, the Chinese didn't know anything about A1 pressure vessel welding." In one year's time, I don't think they can make much commendable progress. ”

"That's not necessarily, a year is enough time for you to marry a beautiful Chinese woman and go home, you enviable guy!"

"Ha, I think that's my charm!"

"Alright, let's get to work!" Steven kicked Dave into the welding work area.

At this moment, the small door next to the door of the pressure vessel production workshop suddenly opened, and two middle-aged men walked in with an old man who looked not young.

The three Chinese walked silently towards the certification team, and He Renming saw the people accompanying Mo Gaowen and hurriedly ran over.

"Elder Lin, you are careful of your step. He Renming smiled happily and worriedly: "It's not safe in the workshop, if you bump into it, we will be guilty of a big crime!"

"I've been in the workshop all my life, I don't know if it's safe? If I step on something, then you are really responsible, and the workshop discipline is not qualified!" Lin Zongtang laughed, scared He Renming, and then asked: "How is the certification going?

He Renming rubbed his hands and said a little nervously: "The certification work is almost done, as long as the welding technology passes the test, we will get this certification!"

"Let's go, let's take a look. Lin Lao nodded: "If you can win the manufacturing technology of A1 pressure vessels, it will be of great help to the petrochemical industry! Every year, it will save foreign exchange for the country, at least 200 million US dollars, and the potential of this project is very great." On the basis of satisfying domestic demand, you have to find ways to expand the scale of production. If you can earn foreign exchange through exports, that's the best. China Railway Construction Investment spent US dollars to introduce technology, and I hope you can earn back US dollars, don't let China Railway Construction Investment lose money. ”

"Old Lin, don't worry, if you can win this certification, it will definitely not be difficult to earn foreign exchange!" He Renming patted his chest and sent a military order. (To be continued.) )
