Beijing suburbs, heavy equipment technician school. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

After more than half a year of construction, this senior technician normal college established in an abandoned factory has become quite large. Some of the original workshops were divided into small bays and used as classrooms, while others retained their original functions and became the school's experimental workshops. The workers' quarters were renovated and converted into dormitories for teachers and students. There are also a series of buildings such as administrative buildings, canteens, auditoriums, libraries, laboratories, etc., and everything a school needs is readily available.

The school's enrollment work is also unusually smooth, and it can even be said that it is hot. At first, some factories didn't know what the school could teach, and they thought about sending unemployed young people from the factories to get a diploma so that they could go back to work assignments. After looking at the course content of the school in detail and the list of dozens of teachers listed on the enrollment notice, the leaders of each factory could not be calm.

Those teachers are all well-known senior technicians in China, and there are more than a dozen of them who have climbed the city tower to shake hands with great men on May Day. Who doesn't want to have the opportunity to let these people give them some pointers, even if they can't learn the skills of others at once, they can be proud of it for a lifetime just by taking a group photo and hanging it on their own wall.

In this way, the registration letters of various enterprises filled Xue Ducang's office at once, and the number of applicants was enough for Xue Ducang to open 100 training courses. Many companies also called directly and opened their mouths to say: "We will pay five times the tuition fee, on the condition that we give us a few more places." ”

In the first phase of enrollment, 200 workers came, most of whom were fourth- and fifth-level workers, which was also the training object determined by the heavy equipment technician school at the beginning. These workers generally have a relatively solid practical foundation, but they are relatively lacking in basic theory, in addition, they lack the guidance of famous teachers, and they have gradually entered a bottleneck period in technology, and it is difficult to make breakthroughs.

Xue Ducang referred to the opinions of Feng Xiaochen, Wu Shican and others, designed the training outline, and set up theoretical and practical courses for the shortcomings of the students. The theory course is mainly to invite experts from some universities and research institutes in Beijing to teach students the principles of industrial manufacturing, so that they can know what kind of theoretical basis they have been doing for many years, and what kind of development these theories will have in the future, and what impact will be brought to their work. In terms of practical classes, these senior technicians invited from key enterprises across the country will provide on-site guidance, including imparting some process know-how, correcting problems in the students' previous operations, and so on.

Xue Ducang himself was born as a worker, and his technical level was quite good, and he had a deep understanding of industrial manufacturing, so he was able to distinguish which courses were necessary and which were redundant, and which lecturers taught valuable content and which were extraordinary. The trainees who came to study also cherished this rare opportunity very much, and their enthusiasm for learning was very high, which made the training effect very satisfying.

These 200 students are all excellent workers, both capable and diligent, and those things in the school that clean up and repair the school building, as long as Xue Ducang gives an order, the students can consciously and voluntarily and excellently do a good job. In just half a year, the campus can no longer see the original dilapidated and depressed appearance, and it has been replaced by a neat, orderly and thriving state.

"Xiao Xue, well done, it seems that being the principal is your job, and the Economic Commission originally let you take charge of logistics and administration, wasting talents. ”

In the honor room of the school, Meng Fanze, who came to visit, admired the trophies, certificates and other things won by the students in various skill competitions, and said to Xue Ducang who accompanied him with a smile.

After Meng Fanze stepped down from the position of vice minister of the Ministry of Coal, at the instigation of Feng Xiaochen, he served as the honorary general manager and chief consultant of Jingwei Consulting Company under the Economic Commission. After a year of preparation, running-in and attempt, the work of Jingwei Company has been on the right track. The main business of Jingwei company is to carry out the construction and evaluation of the comprehensive quality management system of the enterprise, at most, the company has hundreds of projects in progress at the same time, and has established their quality management system for hundreds of large and medium-sized industrial enterprises, and the results have been remarkable, and even alarmed the central government.

Under the demonstration of Jingwei Company, the economic commissions of various provinces and municipalities have also set up their own subordinate enterprise management consulting companies to provide similar consulting services for the enterprises under their jurisdiction. The State Economic Commission has given positive encouragement to this, and dispatched a group of experienced managers and consultants from Jingwei Company to various provinces and municipalities to guide their work, thus forming an upsurge of total quality management from top to bottom.

According to the roadmap set by Feng Xiaochen in advance, the State Economic Commission is working with relevant departments to develop China's quality management certification system, which has also received the attention of the International Organization for Standardization, also known as ISO. ISO is brewing to establish an international quality certification system, that is, the ISO9000 system known to the future generations, China is engaged in this set of things, and ISO ideas have a lot of similarities, some places are beyond the scope of their current considerations, so that a dry ISO experts are amazed.

Of course, only Feng Xiaochen himself knows that the system he designed for the Economic Commission was originally the one that ISO would propose in a few years and continue to improve in the following decades. Using other people's own things to bluff others, can it not have a stunning effect?

Meng Fanze has put a lot of enthusiasm into this work, and according to his family and old subordinates, he is even busier than he was when he was deputy minister in the past. However, people like Meng Fanze have always been busier and more energetic, and after a few months of idleness, they wilted.

Feng Xiaochen hadn't seen Meng Fanze for a while. This time, Meng Fanze said that he wanted to visit the Heavy Equipment Technician School, and specially asked him to come over to accompany him. When Feng Xiaochen saw Meng Fanze for the first time, he almost couldn't recognize it, Meng Fanze's mental state was so good, the glory on his face was dazzling, where he looked like a 70-year-old retired old man.

Accompanying Meng Fanze, there was also a half-aged man in his 50s, Meng Fanze introduced that this person's name was Zhang Lubin, and he was an old friend of his. As for Zhang Lubin's current identity and position, Meng Fanze didn't say anything, so Feng Xiaochen and Xue Ducang naturally didn't want to ask in detail.

After Meng Fanze arrived, he asked Xue Ducang to take them to visit classrooms, workshops, laboratories and other places, and finally came to the school's honor room. Along the way, Xue Ducang walked by Meng Fanze's side, serving as a guide and docent for him, and Xiaochen accompanied Zhang Lubin to walk behind. Zhang Lubin doesn't talk much, but he is also quite interested in things in school, and occasionally asks one or two questions, which is quite professional, and he knows at a glance that he is also from an industrial background. Feng Xiaochen recalled for a long time, and he couldn't think of who this person was, but one thing he knew was that the person who could follow Meng Fanze to come here would definitely not be just an idler playing soy sauce.

"What's going on with this picture? It's like a random thing welded out of gears and springs, right? What is it for?" Meng Fanze walked up to a photo hanging on the wall, and after taking a closer look, he asked Xue Ducang in puzzlement.

"It's not just a random weld, it's a very particular thing. Xue Ducang said with a smile.

Meng Fanze looked at it again and said, "What's the point, clocks are not like clocks, machines are not like machines, what the hell are you doing?"

Feng Xiaochen said in his identity: "Minister Meng, this is an industrial sculpture called 'Time'. ”

"Time?" Meng Fanze rubbed his eyes again, looked at them, and then asked Zhang Lubin: "Xiao Zhang, what do you see? What does this play have to do with time?"

Xue Ducang and Zhang Lubin are both about 50 years old, but in Meng Fanze's mouth, they can only be Xiao Xue and Xiao Zhang, and the two of them have no temper at all. Hearing Meng Fanze ask himself, Zhang Lubin smiled bitterly and said, "Minister Meng, you can stop me from asking, how can I understand this." In my opinion, this is one way to deal with waste in the factory, welding these small parts together, saving one thing and one by one, and wasting time to clean up in the future. Just now, Director Feng said that this thing is called 'time', is this how it came about? ”

“……”

Feng Xiaochen and Xue Ducang looked at each other, both speechless. The thing in this photo was actually designed by a young teacher of the Academy of Fine Arts, and each part on it was processed by the students of the Heavy Technician School, and there were some exquisitenesses, such as some gears with different teeth on them, which is said to represent what it means. The work won a silver medal at a modern art exhibition on Hong Kong Island and was bought by a wealthy businessman on Hong Kong Island for 80,000 Hong Kong dollars, so now Meng Fanze can only see its photographs, but not its actual object.

The "Time" sculpture made the designer instantly famous in the Western industrial art world, and it is said that several foreign art schools invited him to be a visiting scholar. For Xue Ducang, all he cares about is the income from the sculpture, 80,000 Hong Kong dollars, which is a very good income for the Heavy Technician School.

"How did you come up with such an idea?" Meng Fanze couldn't help but be shocked when he heard Xue Ducang finish telling the story behind this photo, especially when he heard that such a pile of waste parts could be sold for 80,000 Hong Kong dollars if they were welded together.

Without waiting for Xue Ducang to answer, Meng Fanze pointed his finger at Feng Xiaochen and said, "No need to ask, this idea must have been given to you by Xiao Feng, right?

"Haha, Minister Meng is really discerning, this ghost idea is indeed from Xiao Feng. Xue Ducang admitted with a smile. To be honest, when Feng Xiaochen first talked to Xue Ducang about this idea, Xue Ducang was still a little skeptical, and when the "Time" sculpture was sold and 80,000 Hong Kong dollars arrived in the school's account, Xue Ducang was really convinced.
