Chapter 104: Late-mover advantage

After visiting the propeller production workshop, Dong Yimin went to the wharf and looked at the 600-ton floating dock that had just been put in place.

I have to say that Gong Shuangqin is still very powerful, the approval process is very fast, and when Shen Damin arrived in the capital, he followed Gong Shuangqin to several important departments, and the matter of the 600-ton floating dock was handled.

Although it is only provided to Endeavor in the name of borrowing, it still solves a major problem for Endeavor Factory, not to mention that it is not only the equipment that is borrowed, but also the operators who operate the equipment, which is a lot of wealth for Endeavor Factory.

After all, it takes a lot of money and time to train a group of floating dock operators who know how to operate from scratch, and the most lacking thing in today's Endeavor factory is precisely time, so a group of skilled operators can be borrowed together, and Endeavor can be said to be in favor of it.

Of course, these operators are not in vain, in addition to the wages of the original unit, Endeavor Factory also has to pay the same labor costs, Endeavor Factory has no objection to this, is not the salary of more than 20 people, a boat built enough to feed them for a few years.

Besides, these wages are not paid in vain, and they can't be idle in addition to work, training and training the employees of Endeavor Factory, and taking care of the juniors who have a strong desire for knowledge.

In this regard, the operators who came with the 600-ton floating dock did not make much sense, but were full of joy, which was not the reason for getting an extra salary, but the latest performance reward mechanism of Endeavor Factory made them extremely tempted.

Through the cruise ships in G City, Endeavor Factory quickly made a name for itself in the field of river cruises, and in addition to the two additional orders from G City, L City and N City in the same province as G City each had four ships.

For this reason, the provinces where these three cities are located also held a special meeting, demanding that the provinces and municipalities under their jurisdiction with the conditions take the three cities that have ordered ships as an example and do a good job in the work of replacing old ships in their jurisdictions.

The implication is to hurry up and follow the three cities to order a new ship.

This is not that the province where G is located is willing to smash the precious finance on the head of the Endeavor factory for the sake of Endeavor Factory, but that the province where G city is located can effectively stimulate the industrial economy of the province through the shipbuilding of Endeavor Factory.

You must know that the two cruise ships ordered by G City directly turned several steel mills, diesel engine factories and instrument factories in trouble into profits, and solved a big problem for the province.

Nowadays, the fishing boats built by Endeavor Factory are full of praise even for the French military attache in China, how can it be regarded as an international advanced level, how can the province where G City is located miss such a good opportunity that can not only grow face, but also stimulate the economy of the province.

So I simply didn't engage in those ambiguous hints, and directly used the provincial party committee meeting to arrange the booking of ships as an important task.

Which can be the leader of the local is not a human spirit, although the provincial meeting did not mention a word of Endeavor Factory, but these people understand that they can only order the ship of Endeavor Factory, which is not only the ship of Endeavor Factory, but more importantly, Endeavor Factory is relying on the industrial supporting facilities of the province where G City is located.

As a result, the number of orders for cruise ships in Endeavor Factory soared rapidly, and in less than a month, the number of hand-held orders exceeded 18 ships, and the excellent factory with only five shipping barges exceeded the hand-held orders at once, becoming the shipyard with the largest number of ship orders in LH City.

This is not counting, the river water network in Xiang Province, the province where G City is located, is also very developed, and the tourism resources are not only rich but also many historical celebrities, and the Chinese and foreign guests are also in an endless stream every year.

After learning that the cruise ship of Endeavor Factory was praised by the French admiral, he also sent people to come here, and after several negotiations between the two sides, Hunan Province did not hesitate to throw out 25 cruise ships and smashed them to Endeavor Factory.

The reason why Hunan Province is so generous is actually the same as the province where G City is located, and Endeavor Factory is willing to do supporting facilities in Hunan Province for the construction of ships ordered by Hunan Province.

Hunan Province was a key province in the third tier of the province, and there were not only many industrial enterprises in the province but also a complete range of categories, but after the reform and opening up, the center of the state shifted to economic construction, and the task of producing military products was reduced to less than one-third of the original.

The third-tier enterprises in Hunan Province that rely on military orders to survive are suddenly weaned babies, and there is no place to cry, because of this, the leaders at all levels in Hunan Province are under great pressure and have thought of many ways to maintain these enterprises, which can be seen to be effective.

There is no way to be some heavy industries such as steel, instruments, machinery, etc., and today's ordinary people have just been able to eat enough, how can they afford to consume those iron lumps.

Therefore, large-scale projects are needed to pull the boost, but the problem is that the investment in these large-scale projects is all staggering, and Hunan Province cannot afford to spend so much money on it; second, large-scale projects need to be approved by the state, and the complexity of operation is very great; third, large-scale projects are slow to produce results, and without the endorsement of the state, a single province cannot afford it.

The purchase of cruise ships from the Endeavor factory is different, the investment in this thing is not small, but the effect is fast, the investment in the year, the cost will be recovered in the next year, and there is no need for special approval by the state, it is enough to make a report, and the province can call the shots.

Of course, more importantly, the shipbuilding industry itself is a resource-intensive industry, which is enough to pull some difficult enterprises to turn losses into profits, so Hunan Province only made a rough calculation and did not hesitate to order ships.

Looking for Hunan Province to make a match, will the province where City G is located have any opinions?

The province where G city is located not only has no opinion, but is also very happy, because for the sake of the eighteen cruise ships, several key industrial enterprises in the province where G city is located have already been running at full capacity, if the order of 25 ships is pressed, then the province where G city is located will have to be supported alive, after all, the province where G city is located is not as developed as other provinces in terms of industry.

However, this incident still made the province where G City is located begin to wake up, and even convened several provincial party committee meetings for this purpose, requiring all industrial enterprises to work quality and efficiency, not always relying on the government to help fight, but to use their own products to open up sales.

When Meng Jianye got the news, the whole person was a little confused, is this the provincial version of the industrial upgrade where G City is located? But surprised is surprised, Meng Jianye is still happy to see it, after all, competitiveness will have motivation, no matter how good the technology of Endeavor Factory is, if there is no strong supporting factory, after all, it is a castle in the air, even if you want to leap, you can't jump.

Of course, Meng Jianye knows very well that the Endeavor Factory itself does not have supporting factories, so it can use this kind of cooperation with the local government to establish a flexible and changeable supporting model, and then change the direction to force the competition and industrial upgrading of local supporting factories.

If, like other large factories, a large number of supporting factories were built around the factory at the beginning of its construction, it would be impossible for Endeavor to do so, because those supporting factories that have long been rooted in the blood of the main factory can drown you with saliva.

So that's the benefit of the late-mover advantage!
