Xinyang two chemical machine.

Xi Shenggui, the director of the factory, sat at the desk, looked at a booklet with the scent of ink with great interest, and chatted with the deputy director Deng Zongbai about this new thing with a grin:

""Manual for Calculation of Standard Working Hours for Undertaking Outsourcing Contracts", Lao Deng, don't say it, the team of the Heavy Equipment Office can really toss it, and they actually came up with such a thing. You say, will the Japanese really ask us to do outsourcing?" asked Xi Shenggui.

Deng Zongbai said: "When I went to the reloading office for a meeting last week, I heard what Luo Xiangfei said, maybe it was really a bit of a joke." By the way, I also inquired, this matter was rectified by the young man named Feng Xiaochen. I've seen that guy's mobility, good guy, when I was in Japan, I played a bunch of old guys with us. ”

"Didn't I hear that he had left the Heavy Equipment Office, and he seemed to be going to graduate school somewhere. ”

"I was a graduate student at the Academy of Social Sciences, and I was still with the famous economist Shen Rongru. However, Luo Xiangfei has always regarded him as a confidant, and if there is a big or small affair in the reloading office, he will be asked to come out and get involved. ”

"It's good to be able to mix. Xi Shenggui replied casually, pulled the conversation back to the original topic, and said: "Lao Deng, I just did a rough flip, and the man-hour calculation in this calculation manual is three or four times higher than our usual algorithm." I remember that when we built a 200 cubic meter spherical tank, the welding man-hours were calculated according to 3,800 yuan, and each man-hour was 3.2 yuan, and the total man-hour cost was about 12,000 yuan. According to the calculation in this manual, the welding man-hours have more than doubled, it is 8,000 man-hours, 8.8 yuan per man-hour, which is more than doubled, and the total man-hour cost is 70,000 yuan.

Deng Zongbai said with a smile: "That's what the rearmament office means." Now the labor in Japan is very expensive, they have to pay 4,000 yen per working hour, which is more than 60 yuan, let's quote them according to 8 yuan 8, which is still much cheaper. As for the doubling of working hours, the Heavy Equipment Office also explained, they said that the work intensity of our workers is high, and one hour arrives at people's homes for two hours, so the number of working hours should be reported more. ”

Xi Shenggui said: "A jar costs 70,000 yuan for welding man-hours alone, isn't this treating the Japanese as the wronged man? According to me, let alone 70,000 yuan, I am willing to do 30,000 yuan, this is simply free money." ”

Deng Zongbai agreed: "Who says it's not." When I had a meeting in the capital, I talked about this issue with Lao Shi and Lao Ma from Huxi and Haidong, and they said that they would accept it even if it was 10,000 yuan. Now that all factories are under-employed, as long as they can earn back their wages, how dare they think of anything to make a lot of money. ”

"That's what I'm worried about. Our price is so high, what if I don't do it one day?" Xi Shenggui said, "According to me, it's almost enough, and if you quote 20,000 or 30,000 yuan in a so-so way, isn't it much stronger than the current loss?"

Deng Zongbai said: "This is the reason why the Heavy Equipment Office is looking for various companies to hold meetings. Luo Xiangfei has analyzed it for everyone, saying that the current labor costs in Japan are too high, and the appreciation of the yen has brought huge pressure on the export of Japanese products, so Japanese companies urgently need to find overseas foundries. In other words, this matter is begged by the Japanese, and of course we should quote a high price. ”

"However, we quoted a high price, in case other factories make a name for themselves and quote a low price, won't we be dumbfounded?"

Deng Zongbai said: "Luo Xiangfei emphasized at the meeting that all companies must quote in strict accordance with the calculation method of this manual, and are not allowed to negotiate with foreign parties privately. He also said that this is discipline and anyone who violates it should be dealt with severely. ”

"Damn, these turtle grandsons are really good now. Xi Shenggui scolded.

"Alas, yes, since Lao Cheng's accident, who dares to fight with the heavy equipment now. Deng Zongbai sighed.

The old Cheng that Deng Zongbai said was Cheng Yuanding, the former director of the North Chemical Machinery Factory, because there was a quality accident when subcontracting large fertilizer equipment, and Cheng Yuanding relied on the old to sell the old and called the heavy equipment office, and as a result, the heavy equipment office made a bad move, not only dismissed him from his post as factory director, but also sent him to prison because of other violations of law and discipline. As soon as this incident came out, the factory directors and managers in the equipment industry felt creepy, and they were somewhat cautious when they encountered the things explained by the Heavy Equipment Office.

"This matter, like the last subcontract of the five sets of fertilizer equipment in China, is included in the scope of work that the state focuses on. Luo Xiangfei said, we are going to sea in a group this time, we must be in the same step, and we can't be broken by foreigners. Deng Zongbai relayed the requirements at the meeting.

Xi Shenggui nodded and said, "That's right." In the past few years, because of our self-competition, foreigners have taken a lot of advantage. Isn't this the case of the 'raw silk war' that the State Development Planning Commission and the State Economic Commission jointly circulated and criticized? If I am the leader of my superiors, I will not be able to stand it. ”

Deng Zongbai said: "That's right, at this meeting, Luo Xiangfei specifically mentioned the matter of the raw silk war, and said that we can't be losers, which company dares to violate the unified deployment, and the rearmament office must be strictly investigated to the end." ”

Xi Shenggui said: "I hope the Heavy Equipment Office can do what it says." Now many subordinate enterprises have been delegated to the province, if people and the province say yes, in order to grab business, and the Japanese to reduce the price, I think Luo Xiangfei is beyond the reach of the whip, may not be able to be punished. However, let's be honest first, don't compromise with the Japanese alone, and save yourself from becoming a bird. If other companies reduce the price, they can't help it, so let's follow suit. ”

"Understood, I'll always keep an eye on it. Deng Zongbai said.

Conversations like this have taken place in other companies. Intimidated by the obscenity of the rearmament office, most enterprises have adopted a wait-and-see attitude and dare not violate the unified arrangement of the rearmament office. In the face of the Japanese businessmen who came to negotiate the subcontracting business, the leaders of the enterprises all smiled bitterly, claiming that they could not make the decision on the issue of price and needed to consult their superiors.

The standard working hour quota calculation manual did not hide from the eyes of the Japanese, but on the first page of the manual, the following paragraph was printed: "In order to promote the smooth development of foreign subcontracting business, show the internationalist spirit of Chinese enterprises, and crack down on arbitrarily raising working hours and quotas and harming foreign businessmen, this standard is specially formulated." This is a high-sounding statement, and it really makes people can't hold their braids.

Mineilongji once went to the Heavy Equipment Office to ask whether the Heavy Equipment Office had formed a price alliance because of this incident. The staff of the Heavy Equipment Office was full of innocence and explained: "We are all thinking about foreign businessmen, if there is no such standard, everyone will quote indiscriminately, wouldn't it be a price gouge?"

"However, you have agreed on an unreasonable price. Mineilongi exclaimed.

"No, the price we set has been strictly calculated, and we require all companies not to exceed this price level and quote to foreign parties at will, isn't this just for the sake of you foreign businessmen?"

"So, if there is a company willing to work with us at this price, will you interfere?" asked Mineilongi.

The staff replied very seriously: "Vice President Mine, the calculation of working hours in our manual is based on science, if the company is lower than this working hour quota and cooperates with you, there must be deception, I hope you can report it in time, so that we can inspect and deal with it seriously." ”

"Uchida-kun, let's go back, there is no need to discuss it with the Chinese at all." ”

In the hotel where the Japanese manufacturer stayed, Minai Takayoshi, who had touched his gray nose, said to Yu Uchida angrily. He had already seen that the Chinese had apparently learned from the war and began to restrain the enterprises from killing each other. Judging from the companies he has contacted, various companies still seem to have some awe of this heavy equipment office, and they dare not sing against the heavy equipment office, so what profit do they Japanese manufacturers have to make?

Yu Uchida was not as excited as Minai Longji, he said leisurely, "Vice President Minai, don't be so impatient all the time. I have read this time manual compiled by the Chinese, even according to the above calculation method, our subcontracting price is still within the acceptable range, why are you so annoyed?"

"I'm angry at this trick of the Chinese!" Mineilongi said, "They can actually ask companies to form a price alliance in the name of the government and quote us high prices, which is an act of unfair competition in the Western world and will be punished." ”

"But this is in China. Uchida retorted, "They are not a market economy country in the first place, so what kind of fair or unfair competition can there be?"

Mineilongyoshi glared at Uchida Yu and said, "Uchida-kun, when we came out of Japan, you said that we should try our best to divide Chinese companies, but in this situation, is this what you call differentiation?"

Uchida Yu smiled calmly, he beckoned Minei Longji to sit down, and said: "Vice President Minei, we still need some patience to deal with the Chinese, and we need some skills. Tantrums don't solve the problem. ”

"Tell me, then, how are you going to solve the problem?"

"Don't worry, there will be a way. Uchida said, and before he could finish speaking, he heard a soft knock on the door. He smiled slightly, stood up and went to open the door, and said to Mineilongi as he walked: "Vice President Minei, you see, my solution has come, let's meet my Chinese guests together." ”21010
