Chapter 509: It's Coming Soon

Yang Ming saw that the time was almost up, sent Chen Baoqing away, and filled the building with missing and filling in the gaps, and then went to the main building of Dahua Laboratory to wait.

At about 8 o'clock, I saw representatives of anxious manufacturers, but most of them were small companies. Yang Ming arranged for them to sit down in the conference hall, accompanied by Lai and a group of people from the public relations department, and learned about their needs.

Although Dahua Industrial is not a large international company, it is also a multi-billion dollar asset scale. With such a thick body, ordinary foreign companies are not easy to be bullied, and most of the small companies that arrive early are ready to do procurement, or do supporting. As an emerging material with a wide range of alternatives, the market for carbon fiber can be said to be boundless, only in terms of cost and profit. If you have to use a certain material as an analogy, carbon fiber can be regarded as the steel of the future, and its characteristics make most of the functions that steel can achieve, can be replaced by carbon fiber, and do better.

Therefore, as soon as foreign companies heard about cheap carbon fiber materials, they immediately rushed over, some wanted to buy finished products, and some wanted to sell related raw materials, among which inevitably equipment manufacturers and some small companies with unique technology, the main building hall of Dahua Laboratory was soon as busy as a vegetable market, at least four or five people, speaking two or three languages, shouting: I have it all!

However, the sales method of carbon fiber has not yet been determined, a group of people have to laugh together, and after a while, Yang Ming couldn't stand it first, and came out with tea to breathe, and saw Li Lianxiang smoking at the back door.

The two looked at each other and smiled, and Yang Ming said helplessly: "There are too many masters, and we can't afford it." ”

"It's that the production is too small. Li Lianxiang took a half-puff of cigarette, spit it into a smoke ring, and said, "When Wang Yun and them do it, I watch it." Asphalt spinning is more troublesome than silk spinning, so advanced equipment, only a few dozen tons of production capacity a year, it is not easy. Not to mention foreign companies, our domestic enterprises can be rounded. ”

"The price is too expensive, and the Chinese people can't afford it. Yang Ming smiled.

"I don't think necessarily, not to mention anything else, the medical treatment must always be able to replace foreign imported petroleum equipment. We can eat dozens of tons of carbon fiber ourselves, I think Su Dong has this meaning. Li Lianxiang took another hard sip and extinguished the cigarette butt by the door.

Yang Ming glanced at him in surprise and said, "It's a good thing that supply exceeds demand, why are you so sad." ”

"You can't make money if you have money. Can you not be in a hurry? The laboratory is a hole that burns money, and when you see that you can break even, a project plan is handed over, and millions of dollars are thrown out. Money is easy to spend, and there are not many projects that can make money......"

This topic was endless, Yang Ming quickly interrupted him, and said with a smile: "Su Dong didn't expect Dahua Laboratory to break even. ”

"It's his business what he thinks. If we don't want to, the hole is getting bigger and bigger, and there will always be times when we lose too much blood. Li Lianxiang laughed twice as he spoke, and said, "Say it again." The more projects you earn, the more funds you have, you look at the Marine Drilling Research Institute, the deep-sea drilling platform is going to be the fourth generation. I heard that the project team with the fastest progress has made preparations below 4,000 meters. That's not the support of Dahua shipbuilding and oilfield departments? The carbon fiber research institute can have its current progress, relying on 2,000 assistants and interns? You say Wang Yun, why is he so bold? That is the funds allocated to him by Yan Xuecan, and the money of the LNG ship project team is directly transferred, if it is done this time, the LNG project team will still have a lot of money. ”

Dahua Industrial's internal assessment is strict and tends to be bureaucratic, and the corresponding authority of supervisors at all levels has also been greatly improved. For projects such as LNG ships, domestic research can be assigned to projects, and Dahua laboratories can also be assigned to projects, in addition to the proportion determined by the head office, the specific allocation of authority is still delegated.

Yang Ming sat in the position of the director of the office, but he had a little opportunity to talk about personnel and authority, so he quickly pulled the topic back and said, "You said earlier that the problem is that the output is too small, why do you have an idea?"

"Expansion is the most direct means, the Carbon Fiber Research Institute has received more than 2,000 assistants and interns, you say that you have been engaged in research? all promoted to assistant researchers, associate researchers? That is impossible, no matter how much funding is not enough, there are not so many projects. So I guess Wang Yun is the idea of expanding production, and once the expansion is done, the problem will become demand. ”

"Oh?

"Continue to engage in research at a good level, these 2,000 people are originally top-notch, and the good ones are selected, and those who can be responsible are selected as assistant researchers. The rest can be made into seeds, sent to the workshop, and all engaged in the production of carbon fiber. In the future, the people who continue to recruit will also handle it according to the rules, learn production with these young people, and then compete with each other, and then go to the research institute for the good ones, and sink to the workshop for the bad ones. ”

"It's a waste to use college students as workers. Yang Ming was shocked.

"Or is carbon fiber so expensive? What kind of workers do you think are used in foreign carbon fiber factories? The production of carbon fiber requires centrifuges, drive units, spinning machines, washing machines, drafting boxes, which are the steps of processing precursors, pipe rolling machines, film winding machines, core pulling machines, polishing machines, curing ovens...... Which one is not hundreds of pieces of data. Li Lianxiang said: "The silk of carbon fiber is much thinner than the hair silk, and the whole production process does not need to be touched by workers, that is, wearing a white coat, looking at the parameters of various machines, operating the machine, not to mention that every operation has to be calculated, producing a batch of carbon fiber, counting ten times and eight times is not less, each time the data is different, there is no basis in physical chemistry, I don't understand organic chemistry and inorganic chemistry, and the loss can be big if I make a mistake, if the machine is damaged, how much is the machine that Su Dong bought this time, you know it." ”

When Yang Ming heard Li Lianxiang say this, he felt that it was really possible, and suddenly his neck was sweaty, and he said, "So, you still have to be a college student?

"If college students don't want to come, they should train themselves. However, college students with good professional counterparts can be used in two months of training, and it will be difficult to train ordinary workers. ”

Yang Ming was stunned, pondered for a long time, and didn't understand what "hundred fears" were, so he couldn't help but feel sad. If you dare to come to Dahua Laboratory, you don't even have the qualifications to be a worker.

Li Lianxiang said it up, coughed twice, and said: "Don't think that you are buried, the current carbon fiber of carbon fiber is not produced by Wang Yun and them with one hand and one foot, you watch the foreign factories in the movie, wear white coats to look at data, and operate computers to produce." That's not how it works. If those students are willing to stay in the workshop to engage in production, they will have the opportunity to engage in scientific research in the future, if they are not willing to stay in Dahua, I dare to say that in China's current environment. Ten ** can no longer touch centrifuges, spinning machines or something. ”

"No, I'll have to make sure. Yang Ming frowned.

Li Lianxiang said strangely: "Confirm what?"

"There are so many people from foreign companies coming today, and Su Dong will be here in a while, if he puts aside the 10,000 hours of transferring to assistant researchers, then it will not be easy to operate in the future. ”

Li Lianxiang smiled and said, "Don't say that 10,000 hours will take two or three years. If anyone can complete it, then at least they belong to the elite. ”

Yang Ming was a little relieved, but he was the director of the office, so he still shook his head and said, "I'll ask Wang Yun later." ”

said. He drank the tea from his cup, said hello and went back.

Li Lianxiang thought about it for a while, and let him go. Carbon fiber is developing too fast, and he can't see it clearly.

When Yang Ming went out, he saw a courtesy car parked outside the main building. Through the glass curtain wall, you can see Ducat, holding a small black stick. Sioux City was on the side. The two talked and laughed in English.

Yang Ming hurriedly greeted him, stood on the side of the door, and nodded, "Su Dong, Mr. Ducat." ”

"Yang Ming, you've seen it, my office housekeeper. Su Cheng introduced with a smile on his face, accompanied Ducat to walk slowly, and said, "Let's sit in the hall for a while, and when everyone is ready, we will talk together." ”

Unable to visit Dahua Lab that day, Ducater knew that this would be the result. Although he was not angry that his lead was deprived, Ducatt could only nod slightly and said, "Then drink some Chinese tea, by the way, can you ask the carbon fiber researcher to come out and speak?"

He still wanted to know some information in advance.

Su Cheng smiled and said to Yang Ming, "You go and ask Dr. Wang to come over." ”

"Yes. Yang Ming turned around and went to make a call, and then went to the front of the building to wait for Wang Yun.

After a while, I saw Wang Yun coming over in a battery car.

Yang Ming waved his hand, asked the battery car to stop, and said with a smile: "Dr. Wang, let's go over." ”

"Good. Wang Yun got out of the car with a humble face and told the intern who was driving to go back by himself.

From the intersection to the main building, there was only a short section, Yang Ming said Li Lianxiang's words without any stumbling, and asked: "Dr. Wang, what are your plans to communicate with the headquarters, the arrangement of 2,000 people is a big deal, if something goes wrong, it is not the business of the carbon fiber institute, it is the business of Dahua Industry." ”

Wang Yun was silent.

Yang Ming couldn't stand still, grabbed him and said, "You have to make it clear." I can tell you that the current national policy is unclear, and if you dare to trap other students, someone will dare to bury us with a pit. It's a big discussion about hiring 8 people back then, but you're 2,000 people. ”

Wang Yun lifted his glasses like the bottom of the wine bottle and said, "These 2,000 people, I am indeed ready to enrich the research institute." The future of carbon fiber is very promising, and I think it is no problem to expand to the scale of the Offshore Oil Research Institute. ”

The Offshore Oil Research Institute is about to exceed 500 people, and even more if you count outsourcing and engineering personnel.

Yang Ming was a little relieved, thinking to himself, 2,000 people can last until the end, and there may not be many people.

So, Yang Ming nodded, and asked again: "What about production? Are you going to expand production?" What are you going to do?"

"In this regard, my thoughts are indeed similar to Mr. Li. ”

"Huh?"

"It's not from these 2,000 people, of course, if they can't hold on and want to stay, then don't say it, go to the workshop. But I don't think 2,000 people are enough. ”

"Not enough?" Yang Ming was not enough.

Wang Yun nodded and said: "To do the workshop, to expand production, in my opinion, the scale can only be increased to 5,000 people." ”

"5,000 people?" Yang Ming was breathless, which was a quarter of the number of employees of Dahua Industrial. Can your little research institute decide such a thing?

Wang Yun was very dull, and calculated: "I reported to Su Dong in front of me that the monthly output was 10 tons, and Su Dong was not satisfied. With a monthly output of 50 tons next year, Su Dong is not satisfied. Therefore, if you want to produce 1,000 tons per year, the current production method will be completely changed, and from the cost analysis, it is more cost-effective to expand to about 3,000 tons rather than an annual output of 1,000 tons. 5,000 people are not recruited all at once, but if the number of interns is maintained according to the current training model, 5,000 people are still needed. ”

Yang Ming was completely speechless, and said helplessly: "Don't say it for a while, I'll explain it to Su Dong and let him decide." ”

"Good. Wang Yun agreed very happily.

Yang Ming then walked with him to the main building.

After a few steps around a small bamboo forest, I saw that the door was already full of cars, and two cars with government license plates were parked directly in front of the main building.

Yang Ming recalled it a little and thought: It was the car of the Foreign Affairs Office.

Entering the hall, sure enough, I saw several government workers in white shirts scattered in the hall, one of them stood at the door, and said to a foreign businessman: "You are interested in carbon fiber, in fact, our city is preparing to build several carbon fiber factories, if you invest, you can have preferential treatment in all aspects." ”

"Really, you also have carbon fiber technology?" the foreigner looked at the young clerk in surprise.

The clerk said proudly: "It's going to be right away." ”
