Chapter 148: Transformation (Part 3)

Meng Jianye waited for anyone to return to the factory, and immediately threw himself into the busy work.

Don't look at the task of building bulk carriers and the production order of more than 180 welding machines, you are too happy not to want it, but if you really want to turn all these things from paper data into real and usable things, it can definitely tire people into dogs.

Fortunately, Endeavor Factory has made some preparations before this, so although the related work is busy, it is carried out in an orderly manner, and with the completion of the four new workshops, the machining capacity of Endeavor Factory has also been restored.

Taking this opportunity, Endeavor Factory officially upgraded the welding equipment development team to the production workshop of ship supporting equipment, and Meng Jianye personally served as the workshop director, so as to better complete the production of welding machines.

To this end, Endeavor not only expanded the scale of interns, but also recruited a group of new employees to the local area for the production of ship supporting equipment production workshop.

After the adjustment and training of Tong Yuanchao and Fang Zhe and others, in less than two months, a not advanced, but very reliable welding machine production line began to operate in the Endeavor Factory, and most of the welding equipment produced in the first batch was supplemented by the Endeavor Factory to its own welding team.

It's not that Meng Jianye doesn't want to rush to complete the orders from other factories, but that the performance of the welding machine he has just mass-produced is somewhat unstable, rather than returning to the factory after the delivery of the factory, it is better to use it first, and solve the problem in time, so as to make the performance of the welding machine more stable and the reputation better.

Not to mention, Meng Jianye's concerns are really not groundless, less than a week after the welder team of Endeavor Factory accepted the first batch of five carbon dioxide semi-automatic arc welding machines, there were seven or eight defects.

Tong Yuanchao and Fang Zhe immediately organized manpower to correct and optimize the defects found, so that they used and changed for more than a month, which not only allowed the welder team to fully grasp the basic use of carbon dioxide semi-automatic arc welding machine, but also made Tong Yuanchao and others make the performance of carbon dioxide semi-automatic arc welding machine more stable.

At this point, the production of carbon dioxide semi-automatic arc welding machine was able to increase the horsepower and began to supply to external factories.

In this regard, Meng Jianye did not worry too much, there were Tong Yuanchao and Fang Zhe in technology, and Shen Damin who returned to the factory in management to take care of him, so in the welding equipment, Meng Jianye was relatively relaxed.

After all, it is the first time that Endeavor Factory has built a thousand-ton sea ship, and many things have to start from scratch, especially the preliminary work is even more ignorant.

For example, finalizing the ship design and related model test plan with the Han-E Shipbuilding Academy, as well as discussing the selection and basic performance of supporting equipment with the Ship Machinery Research Institute, these have to be personally asked by Meng Jianye, so in nearly three months, Meng Jianye basically ran back and forth between Linhai, Han'e and Beijing.

Just as Meng Jianye was going back and forth to finalize the preliminary work of the bulk carrier, the construction of the 3,000-ton dry dock of the Endeavor Factory had also entered the final stage.

Although the construction progress of the Ninth Engineering Bureau of the Ministry of Railways and the 32nd Engineering Office was slow due to lack of experience in the early stage of construction, in the middle and late stages, the 32nd Engineering Office was like a hanger, all the way forward and rushed forward, and when it was almost completed, the construction period was shortened by one and a half months.

The reason for this change is due to the support of the superior units of the 32nd Engineering Agency, especially after the establishment of its own offshore engineering construction team at the Endeavour Plant, this support has become even more sparing.

However, in the mid-eighties, China's economy was just starting, and all kinds of construction investment was very limited, so how could there be so many projects for you to do.

So when these engineering teams were pushed to the market as a whole, they suddenly found that they couldn't find the direction anymore.

It was at this time that the Ninth Engineering Bureau and the 32nd Engineering Division undertook the construction of the 3,000-ton dock of the Endeavor Factory, which made the leaders of the Far Railway Corps suddenly feel a very potential development direction.

That is the construction of coastal ports and offshore professional engineering.

You must know that the focus of reform and opening up is basically concentrated in the coastal areas, compared with the backwardness of the inland areas, the coastal economy has shown an unusually active activity, followed by the prosperity of port construction and marine engineering.

However, at this time, the country is a blank in this regard, if a professional construction team can be formed at this time, its development potential must be very huge.

It was precisely in view of this that the leaders of the Ninth Engineering Bureau and their superiors regarded the 32nd Engineering Department, which undertook the dock project of the Endeavor Factory, as a pilot project to explore the feasibility of moving from land to sea.

When the offshore engineering construction team of Endeavor Factory was established and the construction project of a large port was easily obtained, the leaders of the 9th Engineering Bureau and their superiors could not sit still and mobilized all the forces they could to provide the transformation guarantee for the 32nd Engineering Agency.

Among them was a complete drydock design that was obtained from Pakistan in the 60s.

In the 60s, the Pakistani government gave China a 5,000-ton dry dock designed by the British and built in Karachi, a seaport in Pakistan.

However, because China was following the industrial path of the Soviet Union at that time, it was not interested in this completely British structure, so it was not promoted.

It was not until the construction of the shipyard of Endeavor Factory that the 32nd Engineering Agency helped it to transform, and then found this design scheme with simple structure and convenient construction from the pile of old papers, so it immediately found relevant experts to improve and improve it, and finally became the final plan of the 3,000-ton dry dock of Endeavor Factory.

In addition to undertaking offshore works and opening up a new source of revenue for Endeavor Factory, the original intention of Meng Jianye to establish an offshore engineering construction team also had the idea of replacing the 32nd Engineering Agency in case it could not be done.

But he didn't think that the superior leaders of the 32nd Engineering Agency thought of going to him together, and they all stared at the big cake of the Shanghai project, and they did not hesitate to start the transformation from land to sea, not to mention, but also came up with a feasible construction plan as quickly as possible, which made Meng Jianye have no place to intervene even if he wanted to.

The only way to do this is to let your own offshore engineering construction team go to other places to conquer the city, and continue to leave your own one-third of an acre of land to the 32nd Engineering Agency to do whatever it wants.
