Chapter 52: Betting
"Xiao Zhao, you're here." Qin Hai held the enamel tea jar in his hand and greeted Zhao Yuemin with a smile.
Since the establishment of the China-Japan Research Institute, Qin Hai has also been transferred to the Institute as the head of the petroleum geophysical prospecting department.
"Now, we're all at your father's disposal." Qin Hai said with a smile.
"My dad didn't abuse you, did he?" Zhao Yuemin said with a smile.
"Look at what you said. Director Zhao is very approachable, thoughtful and considerate, I have never seen such a good person. Qin Hai sighed, "I'm worried about the Japanese technicians. These technicians do not communicate with us on weekdays, and they only eat in the canteen of foreign guests with friendship restaurants. A lot of times, I can't even command them. Qin Hai spread his shoulders helplessly.
"Yes, those Japanese technicians don't greet each other on weekdays." Another young researcher chimed in, "It seems that they feel that they have the most advanced technology and that we have to wait and see." â
Zhao Yuemin could see that the Chinese researchers in the institute had a lot of complaints about the arrogance of the Japanese side.
And his father, on the other hand, seems to be an after-thought, only focusing on technical improvement, and not realizing the gap between the two parties. Zhao Yuemin understood that he had to do one thing to let the Japanese personnel understand that China and Japan are partners, and no one can do without them.
But how can the Japanese people be convinced?
He got into thought......
âĶâĶ
Half a month later, Zhao Yuemin came to discuss the project research issues with the Japanese technicians on behalf of the machine repair factory.
"Director Zhao, regarding the improvement project of the follower frame of the rotary drilling rig, I suggest that Director Zhao and Deputy Director Tokugawa take the lead, plus eight researchers from our Japanese Technology Department to form a team." Fujii Shimizu, the technical manager of the Japanese side, proposed.
"What about our Chinese researchers?" Zhao Yuemin asked.
Fujii Shimizu said with a mechanical smile on his face, "I don't think there's any need for them to participate in this project. The equipment is provided by our Japanese side, so our Japanese researchers are more familiar with it, and it is a bit cumbersome to join the Chinese researchers and train them to understand the operation of the machine tool. â
While Fujii Shimizu was talking, Qin Hai and others stood next to him. Zhao Yuemin saw that Qin Hai's face suddenly turned white, obviously very angry.
Qin Hai wanted to attack, but was waved by Zhao Yuemin.
"Manager Fujii, do you think that this rotary drilling rig improvement project is enough for your Japanese personnel alone?"
"At the technical level, all of our researchers have doctoral degrees and have more experience in operating precision machine tools." Fujii Shimizu replied without changing his color.
"Of course, Director Zhao, your father is the director. If he wants to forcibly stuff a few unnecessary Chinese personnel, we have no way to oppose it. Fujii Shimizu spread his shoulders helplessly.
Looking at Fujii Shimizu's appearance, Zhao Yuemin was very impulsive and wanted to throw a punch, but he understood that if this was the case, it would only make the original situation more complicated.
"Mr. Fujii, do you think that with precision machine tools, you have all the technology?" Zhao Yuemin asked quietly.
"Of course." Fujii Shimizu replied, "The equipment and technology are all provided by our Japanese side, and you Chinese ...... them." He said half a sentence, realizing that the other party was a cadre after all, and he stopped talking.
Zhao Yuemin didn't argue with him, but turned his head and asked, "Where is Lao Ge?" You bring Ge Zhixiong. â
After a while, Ge Zhixiong came to the laboratory.
"Lao Ge, are you ready?" Zhao Yuemin asked.
"Don't worry, factory director, I've figured it all out." Ge Zhixiong is determined to win.
"Okay." Zhao Yuemin turned his head to look at Fujii and said, "Mr. Fujii, you are a technician, and you may not know much about the machine tool production process. The accuracy of your precision machine tools is truly impeccable. But where do precision machine tools come from? It still needs to be scraped and assembled by hand. Your machines are all assembled by hand by us old workers. Zhao Yuemin pointed at Ge Zhixiong.
"What?" Fujii looked incredulous, and finally couldn't control it, showing a contemptuous smile, "Director Zhao, please forgive me for being unreasonable." Truth be told, you're making a big joke. â
He pointed to the side and said: "Director Zhao, this optical mirror precision machining machine is the latest technology of our Japanese Mitsubishi Group. The machine adopts a marble bed, full air flotation support and zero transmission structure to achieve ultra-precision cutting of optical spheres, non-spheres and freeform surfaces. The angular displacement resolution of the rotary table of this machine tool is 0.009, and it can process Ï400mm spherical ...... with a surface shape accuracy of 0.5 Ξm and a surface roughness of 5 nm on duralumin and oxygen-free copper materials, respectively.
"I've said so many terms, I'm afraid you don't understand, Director Zhao, I mean, it's a perfect work of art, the crystallization of modern Japanese industry."
"What's that?" Ge Zhixiong straightened up, "I can dismantle this machine tool for you and assemble it for you, do you believe it?" â
"Ridiculous, old man, don't you know, how many delicate parts are thinner than a human hair on this machine?" Fujii sneered.
"What do you say if I do it?" Ge Zhixiong is the most disgusted with the Japanese, and he is the truth.
"If you do it, our Japanese technicians will listen to your old man in the future." Fujii said casually.
"Good! I can remember your words. â
"However, this precision machine is worth millions of dollars. If you disassemble and can't assemble it, who will be responsible for this loss? Fujii asked rhetorically.
"I'll take care of it." Zhao Yuemin stepped forward and said.
Fujii was stunned, he didn't expect the Chinese personnel to really make a big move to dismantle the machine tool. As a radical faction of Nippon Oil, Fujii has always been dissatisfied with the issue of the proportion of shares in the Sino-Japanese joint venture. I just want to take this opportunity to extinguish the arrogance of the Chinese side. And he came down the slope of the donkey, and said,
"Director Zhao, since you must have a try, then I will accept this test."
Zhao Yuemin took a deep breath, he knew that Ge Zhixiong was an eighth-level fitter and had a pair of hands with high-precision processing ability, but he also knew that this Uncle Ge was sixty-two after all, and whether the manual processing ability was discounted, he didn't know in his heart.
"Uncle Ge, how sure are you?" Zhao Yuemin asked.
"Eighty percent sure." Ge Zhixiong stared at the precision machine tool and said word by word, "No one has a 100% chance of winning." â
"Okay, then I'll let you try. It's also rare for me to be impulsive......," Zhao Yuemin said. The last time Ge Zhixiong was in the workshop, he only used a hammer to solve the problem of the worker's crotch being stuck by the machine tool, which also gave him some confidence to support Ge Zhixiong.
"Yes, when I retire, I can the guy again." Ge Zhixiong rubbed his hands, his eyes shining with the light of battle.
"Yuemin, if I lose, do you have to lose millions?"
"Hmm."
"Don't worry, Uncle Ge won't let you bear it alone. Old man, even if I sell my blood and sell my house, I have to change the money for you! Ge Zhixiong said proudly.
