This meal, Hanhua Factory and Hanhua Industrial Company each got their own place, and it was the result of a bumper harvest. When the group returned to Fenghua County, they immediately began to prepare for a big job.

The sad Nyon Heavy Industries didn't know that because they opened a sky-high price on a spindle, a set of orders of more than $3 million disappeared. There is such a thing as large fertilizer equipment, and it is difficult to say whether there are any intellectual property rights. After all, the principle of fertilizer manufacturing is public knowledge, and in terms of equipment, it is nothing more than some pots and jars plus a few hosts.

The so-called altar jar jar, in the concept of industry, is a pressure vessel. The standard of pressure vessels required for the production of chemical fertilizers is not high, that is, ordinary second-class containers, and many domestic enterprises can manufacture them. Since the submerged arc welding research, Hanhua factory has completed several other certifications, and has now obtained the design and manufacturing license of Class II containers, which is fully capable of reading the pressure vessel manufacturing in this set of equipment.

The main engine is the most difficult part of this set of equipment to be produced in China, and the Light Chemical Department chose to import this set of equipment from Yueben, also because it could not find a manufacturer that could manufacture these hosts. Of course, there are factories with stronger machining capacity in China, but they belong to other systems, and like this kind of bull-level enterprises, the production tasks are very busy, and it is impossible to take such small orders.

If it weren't for the sky-high price of Nihon Heavy Industries, which forced Hanhua Factory to process such a spindle in an almost semi-manual way, I am afraid that the Light Chemical Department would not have bothered to produce this set of equipment by itself. Now that the spindle has been made, everyone looks back and seems to say that my skills are nothing more than that, and we can still touch the doorway on tiptoe.

More than $3 million is not a small amount of money, and if it can be saved, it will be a great political achievement, and it will be praised by the Provincial Planning Commission and the Economic Commission. As for the price of 3 million to Hanhua Machinery Factory for production, the leaders of the Light Chemical Department also know that the profits must be very rich, but the leaders don't care about this. Calculating, more than 3 million US dollars, equivalent to almost 6 million yuan, our company can do it with 3 million, who else can crook his mouth for this kind of thing?

A 3 million equipment list smashed on the head of Hanhua Factory, which was simply a pie rain. The output value of the Hanhua factory in the past year was only two or three million. In the past year, due to the country's policy adjustment, as well as the competition of township enterprises that have sprung up, the state-owned enterprises have become more and more unhappy, and the various machinery enterprises under the Department of Light Chemical Industry have been under-operating in a large area, resulting in the so-called "policy surname loss". Although Hanhua Factory said that the annual task volume can still be guaranteed, it is difficult to set aside some surplus money from it to pay bonuses and even build houses.

In this case, getting a production task of 3 million, and a new product task with extremely high profits, is tantamount to a beggar picking up a gold ingots and making a fortune for Hanhua Factory. The production department and the technical department made a preliminary estimate and thought that it would be possible to win this set of equipment by spending a maximum of 1.5 million, which means that the Hanhua factory could earn a profit of 1.5 million.

1.5 million! In those days, this was a shocking amount of money.

Chen Weiguo, the director of the factory, was eager to stand at the gate of the factory and shout to everyone: Is there a year-end bonus? Is there a double half-way reward? Is there wood in the dormitory building? In front of 1.5 million, it's just floating clouds!

The factory council passed a resolution, and when the advance payment for the equipment arrived, the construction of 3 dormitory buildings, each with 3 units, 6 floors, can provide a total of 108 houses. After the 108 families moved into their new homes, the vacated houses could be redistributed to other families who did not have access to the units. In this way, the housing conditions of the workers of the whole factory can be greatly improved.

The news of the building quickly spread throughout the factory, and all the workers were counting on their fingers whether they would have a chance of getting a unit. Some families have already begun to plan to buy furniture and appliances after changing houses, while others have begun to think about the marriage of their children. The whole factory was enveloped in a festive atmosphere.

Among all the people, only Fan Shibin looked depressed. Since he came back from the second fertilizer plant, he sighed every day, which made Lin Zhenhua feel sad when he heard it.

"Old Fan, why did I hear you sigh again." Lin Zhenhua finally couldn't help but ask Fan Shibin.

Fan Shibin said: "It's not for you to be harmed, it's obviously 2 million equipment, you have to quote a price of 3 million." The factory director said that he wanted to make a price of 2.98 million, how would you let me report it? ”

Lin Zhenhua choked up with these words, and he didn't know what to say: "Old Fan, you don't think that there is too much money and counting money is too tiring, right?" ”

"It's really tiring. You see, the cost of materials, man-hours, electricity, water...... I've been counting for a long time, and I've just calculated 2 million, and I'm still 980,000 short, how do you let me calculate? ”

"Let me see." Lin Zhenhua took the budget table in Fan Shibin's hand and began to look at it one by one.

It turns out that the quotation of this equipment is also exquisite, and it is not something that you can quote by opening your mouth casually. Nihon Heavy Industries can quote a shaft for a sky-high price of 30,000 US dollars, but Hanhua Machinery Factory can't do that. You are a state enterprise and cannot earn money from the state, so the quotation of equipment must be within a reasonable range. This reasonable range is the cost plus a certain percentage of the profit, and every money must be implemented.

Fan Shibin is a sincere person, a budget table is decent, and the materials and working hours of each part are clearly calculated. The spindle gritted his teeth and quoted a high price of 3,000 yuan, which already made him feel ashamed. In his opinion, 300 yuan has already been earned, isn't it just a few old workers who have worked for two days......

"No, Lao Fan, the ice machine spindle processing is 3,000 yuan?" Lin Zhenhua said disdainfully.

"That's right, Xiaolin, isn't it not good for you to say this?" Fan Shibin said worriedly.

"It's not good, really."

Fan Shibin breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then I'll change it back, I also think it's too bad for the country." Do you think it's better to change it to 1000 yuan? ”

"Let's change it to 10,000 yuan." Lin Zhenhua said.

"10,000 yuan!" Fan Shibin jumped up like a cat with its tail stepped on. Lin Zhenhua has been in the technical department for more than a year, and Fan Shibin has been shocked more times than in the past few decades combined, so that he has formed a conditioned reflex.

Lin Zhenhua said: "Of course, I still think it's low." ”

"Xiaolin, don't talk nonsense. If you look at the process, isn't it die forging, rough turning, normalizing, I counted the working hours one by one. I have exaggerated the working hours several times, and this is only 3,000, if you calculate 10,000 yuan, can the Light Chemical Hall do it? ”

Lin Zhenhua said with a look at him: "Old Fan, do you have a little conscience?" Lao Hu and I have drawn so many pictures and counted so many curves, not counting money? ”

"Hmm...... Reasonable, but how many man-hours can be calculated? Fan Shibin hesitated.

"Knowledge is priceless, old Fan." Lin Zhenhua said, "Let me tell you a story." In the past, there was a factory where the motor broke and an engineer was hired to fix it. When the engineer arrived, he drew a line on the motor and said that if it was taken apart from this place, the inside burned out, and the wire inside could be replaced. Later, the engineer asked the factory for $10,000 as a repair fee, but the factory didn't understand it and said that if you draw a line, you will charge $10,000? Guess what the engineer said? ”

"What did he say?" Fan Shibin asked.

He said, draw a line, charge $1; Know where to draw, $9999. ”

Fan Shibin nodded: "What you said also has some truth, but our country's current regulations are like this, if you can't count the working hours, you can't count the money." ”

Lin Zhenhua said: "You can write it, calculate the cutting curve, 2,000 man-hours, 5 yuan per man-hour, a total of 10,000 yuan." ”

"How can there be 2,000 man-hours, Xiaolin, you and Lao Hu haven't worked for a long time, right?"

Lin Zhenhua said: "Yes, who thinks it's not worth 2,000 man-hours, let him calculate it himself." I really don't believe it, so I asked the Light Chemical Department to call all the people from the Chemical Design Institute, and I saw if they could calculate it in 2,000 man-hours. ”

Just kidding, Lin Zhenhua and Hu Yang are both senior technical talents, especially Hu Yang, which is simply a kind of anti-heaven existence, he does one hour of work, and ordinary technicians have to work for at least 10 hours. What's more, they still have the big artifact of Apple-II, and the chemical design institute doesn't seem to be equipped with a computer yet.

Fan Shibin seemed to understand a little, and he asked: "Xiaolin, what do you mean, do you mean that we can exaggerate some man-hours, so that the entire cost can be calculated." ”

Lin Zhenhua said: "That's right. Lao Fan, you are also a person who has drunk with you, why can't you hear what Director Xie meant? She made it clear that this was the opinion of the leaders of the hall, and as long as our quotation was written seamlessly, the hall would not recalculate it at all. This is new equipment, and some of the processing technology is also brand new, who can find fault with it? ”

"But what if we don't have so many man-hours at that time?" Fan Shibin thought of a new problem, the actual working hours used in the workshop must eventually be entered into the account, and it is impossible to fake.

Lin Zhenhua said lightly: "That's better, you see, Hanhua Machinery Factory has engaged in technological innovation, and the production efficiency has been doubled." A certain type of equipment saves a number of man-hours in the production of a certain type of equipment, and how much money is saved for the country...... Maybe the Light Chemical Agency will give us a saving award. ”

"Reasonable, I see." Fan Shibin was overjoyed, grabbed the budget table and ran back to the office to revise it. The problem that had plagued him for a long time was finally solved by Lin Zhenhua, Fan Shibin felt relaxed, his waist was no longer sore, his legs were no longer painful, and it was not difficult to count hundreds of man-hours.

Lin Zhenhua looked at Fan Shibin's back and couldn't help but sigh:

"Alas, another honest man cultivated by the planned economy has been pulled into the water by me."
