He Tao sat down at the table, turned on the lamp beside him, took out a black leather book from his leather bag, and turned it to a new page. He took out the pen from his pocket, took off the cap, groaned slightly, and began to write.

"August 24, 1977, fine

After the opening ceremony of the precision machine tool factory and the precision equipment factory, I stayed with Fan Gong and Professor Zhao and did not leave immediately.

Guan Fei's large number of customized parts from China have been personally admitted by him, which are used for assembling component production lines, and there are ...... "He Tao wrote here, took out a small notebook from his personal pocket, opened it, and copied it according to the content of the temporary record above, "There are six resistor production lines, which are ordinary carbon film resistors for high-power equipment, ultra-high frequency organic solid core resistors that can be fine-tuned, inorganic solid resistors with multi-turn high resistance, and high-precision chemical deposition film resistors. High-voltage glass glaze film resistors for function control, wirewound resistor production line for special purposes......"

He Tao didn't understand any of these terms, and they all inquired from Professor Zhao, but he still recorded them all very carefully and copied them one by one in his diary.

The component production line naturally cannot only have a resistor, but also includes a series of electronic components such as capacitors, potentiometers, inductors, semiconductor separation components, light-emitting diodes, etc.

According to Guan Fei himself, his next step is to build a large-scale component production group composed of a general factory and several small factories, which is specifically responsible for providing qualified electronic components for other mechanical and electrical enterprises to meet their needs. It is no wonder that he will customize such a large number of parts and components to China.

He Tao's understanding of this aspect is really limited, so after copying it, he checked it again to confirm that there was no mistake, and then put away his notebook and continued to write a diary.

"This time, Guan Fei did not provide complete production line drawings, and only some peripheral parts process drawings were obtained in China. He provided several samples of the finished sub-vibration instrument for relieving the internal stress of the workpiece, but also mentioned only the sufficient supply of the finished product, and did not mention the transfer of technology.

Fortunately, he did not forbid us to observe, so Professor Zhao and Fan Gong proposed to stay here for a while to learn as much as possible about the relevant technology and actual working performance.

The two factories that were officially opened this time left a very deep impression on me during the field observation.

I don't know much about the technical aspects, but from the most direct point of view, it is very large: the plant is tall and large, in order to build a large-span workshop, Guan Fei spent a lot of money to order large-span steel beams from China to support the roof of the factory.

There is also the impression that it is extremely modern.

A large number of automation equipment is used in the plant, and according to Fan Gong, such a high-quality workshop is of great help to reduce the labor intensity of workers and improve labor productivity. Its degree of modernization is almost comparable to that of cutting-edge enterprises in Europe and the United States.

I don't understand that.

But I can see that the internal environment of the factory is extremely clean, the ground is very flat, and it is painted with a light yellow tone - Fan Gong said that this is a self-leveling ground made of epoxy resin, which can ensure the absolute flatness of the ground, so as to meet the measurement needs of those high-precision machine tools. At the same time, this kind of ground is less dusty, anti-static, and is a very high-grade ground, and only those high-end electronics companies and precision manufacturing enterprises in foreign countries will do this.

Well, even the ground is made of high-end goods!

It can only be said that Guan Fei is too rich and too willing to spend money, and he is definitely reluctant to spend such a big price to repair a floor in China.

I noticed that the factory building is fully enclosed, and there are no windows for natural sunlight to enter the house. Outside the factory, there is also a circular corridor that surrounds the factory building, and workers can only enter after changing their work clothes in the factory in the circular corridor. This is said to be particular, in order to avoid external pollution as much as possible, and can also effectively reduce the impact of external hot and cold air flow and water vapor on precision machine tools.

I feel that Guan Fei's attention to the subtleties has reached a pathological level. It is really impossible to imagine how much impact a little change in heat and cold and water vapor in the air can have on the machine tools made of steel, and the factory must be equipped with special central air conditioning and humidity conditioning machines.

And because the factory building is closed, there are too many lighting devices above.

If all the lighting equipment is turned on, the bright light will illuminate the entire factory as bright as daytime, and even a hair on the ground can be seen. In order to help the machine operator to see the details of the machined parts, the machine is also individually equipped with high-brightness fluorescent lamps to supplement the illumination.

Fan Gong said that the brightness of the lighting in the factory has reached at least 500!

How much electricity is wasted!

In order to open the new plant, Guan Fei not only renovated some ordinary 616 machine tools with CNC lathes, but also imported a new batch of machine tool manufacturing equipment from China.

Considering the help of the previous technologies to the country, China has bought some more advanced equipment. In China, although these equipment can not be regarded as high-precision and ultra-high-precision, they also belong to precision manufacturing machine tools, which are roughly at the same level as the CNC lathes after his transformation, with an average accuracy of between 20 and 30 microns.

Of course, the country has also made huge profits from this trade. The price of these precision equipment is much higher than that of ordinary lathes, and the price of each is between tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands.

However, I found that Guan Fei and they dismantled these precision equipment in the factory, dismantled eight pieces, and then re-modulated and assembled!

This is a terrible thing!

Such a precious thing has always been carefully maintained in China, and I am afraid of rubbing it. Once any part is taken apart and reassembled, there will inevitably be a very slight misalignment, and the accuracy will immediately drop significantly.

Guan Fei and the others actually dismantled them all, I don't know if I should say that they are ignorant and fearless!

I really don't know much about the technical aspect, the above part is mainly Professor Zhao and Fan Gong's observation and understanding, plus some facts I personally saw, and made a summary. Personally, I am more concerned about the organizational structure of the factory.

In terms of structure, these two factories have the same factory department, party committee secretary, trade union, women's federation and other organizations, which seem to be no different from those in China.

But after in-depth understanding, I feel that they are very different from domestic enterprises.

In these two factories, the factory director is responsible for the system, that is, the factory director is in charge of technology, production, and sales, and everything in the factory is his final say.

The secretary of the party committee plays the role of supervisor in the factory, not responsible for specific enterprise management, and is in charge of party building and ideological propaganda. Trade unions, women's federations and other institutions are also directly under the management of the factory party committee, and the factory director has no right to interfere. The trade unions, women's federations, party building, and propaganda departments under the leadership of the party committees have set up a state-owned enterprise asset management committee above the factory department to evaluate the work of the factory director and other management cadres.

I once asked Guan Fei curiously what was the purpose of this setting.

Guan Fei replied that this is borrowed from the management of Western enterprises, and the state-owned asset management committee is similar to the board of directors of Western enterprises. The secretary of the party committee cannot directly manage the enterprise, and the promotion and appointment of management cadres are also nominated by the factory director, but the party committee has the right to review them, and if the audit is not passed, the appointment will be invalid. This is a model of the separation of responsibilities between political and military commanders of the armed forces.

Party committees, trade unions, women's federations, and other supervisory departments have nothing to do with enterprises, but belong to the vertical management of the party committee system, and salaries are allocated by the higher-level party committees, which ensures the independence of these departments. They will be more committed to their duties, and as defenders of the interests of the working class and working women, they will stand on the side of the broad masses of laborers, thus maintaining the legitimacy and class character of the party.

I have to say, this is a very novel architecture.

The factory department is only responsible for organizing the production, technological innovation, and product sales of the enterprise, while the party organization is separated from the operation of the enterprise and is only responsible for the management of ideology. However, this system still needs time to test whether it can have the desired effect in long-term practice.

The machine tool factory and equipment factory have been put into use, and the plant construction is also very modern, and there are many equipment placed in it, but there are too few workers.

In the spacious factory, only a dozen or so people are busy. Compared with the rows of dozens of machines and equipment around them, it seems to be extremely empty.

This is what is often said in China, even money can't buy a complete factory, the real meaning.

Guan Fei can build a beautiful modern factory by throwing money around, relying on renovation and purchase, with advanced equipment, but he can't buy skilled technicians and workers!

Without these, no matter how good the plant equipment is, it can only be placed in ashes!

However, this was a good opportunity for us, so I went to Guan Fei and offered to help them solve the shortcomings of technicians and workers, and he readily agreed.

According to his request, about 500 technicians and skilled workers can be transferred from China, and he specifically requested that a small half of them should be old workers who are about to retire or have just retired. Although these old workers are no longer physically able to bear the high-intensity work, they have rich experience and can use the old to bring the new to cultivate more high-quality talents for the enterprise.

That's what we'd love to see.

It is foreseeable that these two factories will inevitably be an important part of Guanfei's future ambition. All important core equipment will be manufactured in these two factories, and only those less important peripheral equipment will be processed by China.

Our workers are actually involved in it, and can most intuitively understand the manufacturing requirements and process technology of the core components of the entire equipment, and at the same time, they can also completely grasp all the technical points of a device from manufacturing to completion in the final assembly process, which is of great value for improving the technology in China.

In addition to this, Guan Fei put forward a new request.

After the assembly of the component production line is completed, the trial production will be carried out when the construction of the component factory and each branch factory is completed. At present, Guan Fei has only a small number of junior workers and more than 10,000 educated youths who are still studying in junior high school, which are talent reserves, but they are still a long time before they can be used.

Therefore, he also proposed to hire a large number of retirees from domestic electronics companies, as well as a small number of on-the-job technicians, to assist them in pre-production. In the future, their talents will gradually go to work, and then gradually withdraw.

Professor Zhao is a strong supporter of this request. He very much wants to observe the operation of this new production line through personal participation, understand whether its production efficiency and product quality are better, and then decide whether there are a large number of imitations in China and promote it in an all-round way......"

He Tao wrote here and put down his pen.

He looked out the window at the quiet night and fell into deep thought.

Just before February of this year, he didn't know anything about Guan Fei and the 291st Brigade, which suddenly got the number. At that time, the object of his attention was only the headquarters of the People's Party and the high-level of the People's Army, and Guan Fei, a small company commander, he never paid attention to it.

The battle of Qiaotou made him know a little about this name, but he only knew a little, and he still didn't pay much attention to it.

When Guan Fei took Zhang Shengguo to take the initiative to go to him to ask for food, saying that he wanted to save his life, he only felt abrupt and stunned. At that time, he gave more than a dozen tons of grain, in fact, he was not very optimistic about him, but completely because this was a team of educated youths, in line with the sympathy of the people, and gave a little help within the scope of his authority.

In his opinion, the intersection of the two sides ended here, and he couldn't help this small team again and again. If they come back for help next time, he will persuade them to return to the country, abandon those unrealistic illusions of global liberation, and work and produce at home in a down-to-earth manner.

But since then, the words Guan Fei and 291 Brigade have repeatedly entered his ears, and the frequency has become higher and higher.

Unconsciously, the 58104 unit under his leadership has also changed from a special unit to support the People's Party to a counterpart unit in China that has direct contact with the 291 Brigade. Today, it has been transformed from a temporary institution into a full-fledged permanent unit.

With the technology that Guan Fei has come up with, China has paid more and more attention to Guan Fei, and the various requirements put forward by Guan Fei have also changed from the initial need to repeatedly consider and review, to take the initiative to ask if they need help.

Personnel exchanges between the two sides are getting closer and closer, and exchanges are getting deeper and deeper.

Up to now, for the time being, it is still Guan Fei's dependence on China, which is greater than the domestic demand for the 291 Brigade. But this relationship is also quietly shifting as Guan Fei's strength gradually grows, and the weight is getting heavier and heavier.

The world is really impermanent......
