Chapter 19: A Penny Makes It Hard to Defeat a Hero
Sending Wang Xiaochen away, Qin Hai returned to his desk. He didn't continue the work just now, but supported his chin with his hand and pondered about the Qingfeng Factory.
Regarding the Qingfeng Factory and Wei Baolin, in the past two days, Qin Hai had already listened to Ning Mo and them in detail. Judging from Ning Mo's account, Wei Baolin is a scholar who talks on paper, has great ambitions and talents, and is still very selfish and nepotistic, so much so that he has made a factory a miasma.
The foundation of Qingfeng Agricultural Machinery Factory is very good, although the equipment of several workshops such as metalworking, casting, and assembly is not the top in China, but it is also everything. Equipment such as high-frequency induction hardening furnace is rare in this kind of county-level agricultural machinery factory, but it can be seen in Qingfeng factory.
In addition to the equipment conditions, the level of workers at the Blue Point plant is not bad. According to Ning Mo and Wang Xiaochen, there are several veteran workers in the Qingfeng factory whose skills are very famous in the entire system. In the more than 10 years that Ning Zhongying was the director of the factory, the atmosphere of learning skills in the factory was very strong, so the general workers' skills were relatively good, and the tradition of learning skills has even continued to the present.
Such a good production base, if there is a capable family, coupled with some good products, in such a rapid era, it is easy to develop, and it is not a big deal to become a top domestic enterprise in the future.
It's a pity that the leader of Qingfeng Factory is a person like Wei Baolin who is eager for quick success and quick profit, and he casually pats his head and launches a new product, and when he encounters a little setback, he immediately denies it completely, and does not even make any efforts to remedy it. No matter how good the enterprise is, if it is tossed a few times like this, it will also have a great loss of vitality, and after the worst thing, like many small and medium-sized state-owned enterprises in later generations, it will withdraw from the market.
Fate has brought himself to such a company, with his own ability, it is not difficult to save this enterprise, the difficult thing is, can he have a platform to display his abilities?
Now it seems that Xiang Jiyong, Leng Yuming, and Xiao Dongping, middle-level cadres, should want to save this factory, and they are also optimistic about Qin Hai's talent. However, these people are only middle-level, and according to Ning Mo, because these people are all cadres under Ning Zhongying, they can't get used to Wei Baolin's style on weekdays, and Wei Baolin has failed to recruit them, so he treats them as alternatives. It was really because of the complicated procedures for the appointment and dismissal of cadres in state-owned enterprises that Wei Baolin could not find any handle for them, so he was unable to remove them from these important posts.
Xiang Jiyong and the others came to Qin Hai in the single building after the meeting, and the purpose was very obvious, that is, they hoped that Qin Hai would help them solve the quality problem of rotary tillage blades as soon as possible. However, Wei Baolin is already planning to switch to the production of washing machines, so what is the point of solving the problem of rotary tillage blades now?
Alas, it's going to rain, my mother is going to get married, let them go, I still have to fight with Ning Mo and them first, earn some capital, if the Qingfeng factory really collapses in the future, at least I won't be hungry.
Qin Hai had an idea in his heart, so he pulled his mind back to his eyes and began to draw the design drawings of several ordnance.
Early the next morning, Qin Hai came to the foundry workshop on time, and saw that Xiang Jiyong and other three section chiefs and workshop director Miao Funan were already waiting for him in the office, in addition to their middle-level cadres, there were also several middle-aged workers in the office.
"Leaders, I'm sorry, I'm late." Qin Hai can't say anything about it, and do self-examination first.
"You're not late, and you're five minutes before it's time to get to work." Xiao Dongping looked at his watch and said to him.
"Now that we're here, let's talk about this high-frequency induction surfacing thing." Leng Yuming didn't talk so much nonsense, and directly cut to the topic.
Miao Funan pointed to several middle-aged workers next to him and said: "These are all heat treatment workers in our workshop, these are Peng Jingen, Liu Jianping, and Wei Jiali, all of whom are old operators." ”
"Master Peng, Master Liu, Master Wei." Qin Hai nodded to the workers one by one, and the other party nodded slightly in return. However, every worker was muttering one thing in their hearts: just such a hairy child, how could Section Chief Leng be so polite to him?
"Okay, let's not talk about it, let me tell you about this high-frequency induction surfacing technique." Qin Hai didn't care what others were thinking, if he wanted to convince others, he had to come up with real talent, otherwise, even if you had a big beard and a truckload of diplomas, what was the use?
"The purpose of high-frequency induction surfacing welding is to cover the surface of the workpiece with an alloy welding layer to improve the wear resistance of the workpiece and prolong the service life of the wear-resistant workpiece.
The high-frequency induction surfacing process includes three aspects, one is the design of the position, shape and thickness of the welding layer, which can be completely solved by the cold section chief they have the design data of the blade; The second is the preparation of surfacing alloy materials, which is an alloy powder, which requires uniform particle size, low melting point, good manufacturability, and at the same time, it must be cheap; The third is the surfacing process specification, including current frequency, power, and surfacing time.
The latter two items need to be determined according to our actual situation, including the material properties of our existing inserts, the capabilities of our existing equipment, and the source of the alloy powder. In this regard, I can propose a general direction, but to find out the optimal alloy formulation, as well as the specification parameters, it must be solved experimentally. ”
When Qin Hai said this, he took out a few pieces of paper from his pocket where he had written words, handed them to Leng Yuming, and said, "Section Chief Leng, this is some of the formula information and parameters that I recalled last night, and I may need to trouble Master Peng and them to actually experiment and find out the best match." ”
Leng Yuming took the pieces of paper, looked at them carefully, nodded to Xiang Jiyong and Miao Funan, and said, "What Xiao Qin said is right, these parameters can only be determined by your own experiments, and you two have to give orders to do this." ”
Miao Funan pointed at Xiang Jiyong and said: "Don't look at me, Lao Leng is the head of the production section, and the production department will give me a task list, and I, the director of the workshop, will implement it." ”
Xiang Jiyong frowned, and asked Leng Yuming, "Old Leng, how many times have you done these experiments you said?" You'll have to ask the technician to calculate the consumption and man-hours. If the cost is less, I can call the shots, and if the cost is too much, I will have to ask Wei Baolin for approval. ”
Leng Yuming said: "The formula listed by Xiao Qin is a high-chromium cast iron powder, and we can prepare it ourselves, but the specific gravity of chromium and the specific gravity of the flux need to be experimented. ”
"A few hundred yuan ......" Xiang Jiyong was embarrassed.
Qin Hai couldn't stand it anymore: "A few leaders, experimenting with a new process, a few hundred yuan is really not too much, right?" We...... Well, I mean, in order to develop a new heat treatment process, some large foreign companies are throwing money into it with a scale of tens of millions of dollars, and we are not willing to spend even a few hundred dollars, right? ”
If there is one thing that costs the most money in the entire industrial field, it is undoubtedly materials. Some people think that the appearance of those international famous cars is dazzling, and imagine how much investment it would take to develop such a model, when in fact, the cost of these exterior designs is really nothing compared to the cost of material formulation and craftsmanship.
It will probably cost billions of dollars to build an aircraft carrier. The development of high-temperature-resistant, wear-resistant, and corrosion-resistant special steel for aircraft carrier decks is also invested in billions of dollars.
As a later generation of materials science experts, Qin Hai has an unforgettable experience of the cost of materials research. Don't look at how well he has done in theory and how many amazing results he has achieved, but he is still far from putting these theories into practice. There is only one reason, and that is that no one can afford the huge amount of money required for this process.
Perhaps, in this life, I should take making money as the first priority, if I can become a billionaire, or even a billion, tens of billions of super-riches, then those theoretical ideas in my previous life will have a chance to be realized......
At this moment, Qin Hai suddenly found his goal of crossing and rebirth, that is, to make money.
"Xiao Qin, what do you want?" Everyone noticed Qin Hai's brief loss of consciousness. Xiao Dongping patted Qin Hai on the shoulder, pulling him back to reality from his dream of becoming Bill's gai.
"Oh, I mean, this surfacing process involves the quality of one of our factory's main products, and it costs a few hundred dollars, which is not a big payment, right?" Qin Hai hurriedly covered up and said.
Xiang Jiyong had a bitterness in his heart, but he couldn't tell this young man. He nodded and said, "I'll solve this matter." Lao Miao, you first let Master Peng, Master Liu, and Master Wei do the experiment according to Xiao Qin and Lao Leng's arrangement, and report the consumption and working hours later, I will definitely not let you pay for reimbursement out of your own pocket. ”
Miao Funan got Xiang Jiyong's promise, and didn't ask much, turned back to the heat treatment workers and said: "Lao Peng, Lao Liu, Lao Wei, you just do it according to the arrangement of Xiao Qin and Section Chief Leng, this matter is very important, and it involves whether the 20,000 blades in our factory can be brought back to life." Well done, I'll give you this month's bonus. ”
Peng Jingen said with a smile: "Director Miao, you are really joking, the bonuses of the past two years have not been paid, what is the use of you reporting this month's bonuses?" However, if Master Xiao Qin's method is useful, it will be a great thing to be able to sell the blades of our factory. When the time comes, can you help me go to the finance department and report the medical expenses of my child's measles in the first half of the year, and I will kowtow to you. ”
"If it can be done, it's on me." Xiao Dongping patted Miao Funan's chest and agreed to Peng Jingen's conditions.
