378 White Picking
378 white picking
Lin Zhenhua claimed to be wronged in front of Chen Tian, but in fact, he was just joking. He knew, of course, that it was completely impossible to get information back from the Soviet Union without the support of the security services. If it is just one or two drawings, with the current chaos in the Soviet Union, it can be mixed in any cargo and shipped back. But now he is eyeing tens of thousands of materials, even if they are loaded by trains, it is estimated that they will have to have several wagons, which is not easy to fool around.
When such a problem is put into Chen Tian's hands, it becomes very simple. It really doesn't work, he can use the smugglers' channel to get things back, anyway, the border guards and they are the same family.
Since Chen Tian needs to be helped, it is reasonable for Chen Tian to collect some tolls. In fact, Chen Tian didn't want much of it, just some materials related to the defense industry. Lin Zhenhua provided these materials to Chen Tian, and he did not lose anything, because Chen Tian wanted these materials for the national defense industrial system, and there was no conflict with the civilian market that Lin Zhenhua was involved in.
"Okay, for Brother Chen's sake of helping me get the strings, I can charge a little less." Lin Zhenhua pretended to be distressed and said. As soon as he made this promise, he immediately put forward his own conditions: "Brother Chen, you can ask for information, but you have to help with the work of translating and sorting out these materials." ”
Chen Tiandao: "Just kidding, how can I help with this?" If it goes well, we'll almost have to move a library back from the Soviet Union, and you can figure out how many people it will take to translate all the materials? ”
"I didn't let you do it." Lin Zhenhua said, "But it shouldn't be difficult for you to help me find a venue?" ”
Chen Tian was stunned for a moment and asked, "What, don't you plan to get these things back to Xunyang to deal with?" ”
Lin Zhenhua shook his head and said: "I just calculated, it is estimated that these materials can only be processed in Beijing. The number of people who can process this information must be able to understand the Russian language and have a certain professional background, and there must be at least 100 people. There are so many professionals that I can only get together in Beijing. ”
"You're right." Chen Tian also came back to his senses, he thought for a while, and said: "In this way, I will also help you inquire about the problem of manpower, I know that there are some universities and scientific research institutes that have professors and engineers who used to learn Russian, and we can hire them." Of course, you'll have to pay for them. ”
"yes, okay." Lin Zhenhua agreed. He had just calculated in his heart that if he wanted to hire 100 professionals to do the translation and collation of these materials, based on a monthly salary of 200 yuan, it would be 240,000 yuan a year, and he could fully afford this cost. In the future, even if only one of these materials is useful, its value will be far more than 240,000.
Chen Tian continued: "As for the venue, I do have a ready-made one. There is an abandoned military camp at the foot of Xiangshan, which was originally the station of a training regiment of the Beijing Military Region. I'll get back in touch and allocate this barracks to you, what do you think? ”
"Great!" Lin Zhenhua was overjoyed, "Brother Chen, will this military camp be used by me in the future?" I really can't do it, I can buy it with some money. ”
"You use it first, I don't think the troops will want it anymore." Chen Tian said casually, "If you really want to contribute money, you can contribute some money to help us build two houses in the system." ”
"This ...... Think long way. Lin Zhenhua smiled and regarded Chen Tian's words as a breeze on his face.
This unexpected episode made Lin Zhenhua suddenly have another work content, and in the following months, he was so busy that he couldn't wait to break one day into two days.
The first thing Lin Zhenhua did was to mobilize a group of technical personnel, including Wei Jingwen, Fan Shibin, Liu Zhaohua, Wang Haisheng, etc., and let them go to the Soviet Union with Wu Jie in phases and batches to negotiate the purchase of technical materials and equipment.
In the beginning, these technicians who went to the Soviet Union were still thinking about carefully selecting and bargaining. Later, everyone finally realized that the technology precipitated by the Soviet Union over a period of 70 years was really vast, and it was impossible to complete it without ten years and eight years to select the same technology. After understanding this, everyone no longer bothered, as long as they thought that the information was probably passable, they were all packaged and bought, and then loaded and shipped back to China.
The situation in the Soviet Union, as Wu Jie said, was completely out of control. People in various units are trying to make personal gains for themselves, as long as someone is willing to pay for them, they can sell anything. Countless tangible and intangible wealth was thus rapidly lost. ,
In the mountains on the northwestern outskirts of Beijing, a military camp that had been dormant for a long time suddenly became noisy. First, a construction team came and renovated several warehouses that were originally used to store weapons and ammunition, turning them into moisture-proof and dust-proof archives. Then, truckloads of file bags were transported from nowhere and put into warehouses in separate categories.
A group of retired professors and engineers hired from various units moved into the barracks, reportedly engaged in a secret job. They were joined by hundreds of Russian language students from the Beijing Institute of Foreign Chinese and several other universities, who received three days of secrecy education before entering the barracks, and each signed a confidentiality agreement with Hanhua Heavy Industries, promising not to divulge the content of their work.
An unprecedented data collation work has quietly begun, and the staff has dug out the experimental records from the dusty file bags, numbered them, classified them, and written relevant abstracts, and established a search system. Those materials that have been identified as being of great value are translated in full by specialized personnel and then quickly forwarded to the relevant units so that they can be used in production practice as soon as possible.
Qian Yuanping, a lawyer from Hong Kong, also arrived, bringing a wooden sign to the former barracks with the words "Hanhua Institute of Technology and Information." In fact, this institute already existed a few years ago, and it was established on the basis of the patent fund set up by Lin Zhenhua entrusted Qian Yuanping. Qian Yuanping has now officially become a member of Hanhua and serves as the director of the Institute of Technology Information.
In addition to intelligence information, a large number of machinery and equipment were also shipped back to China. Chen Tian used his system to bribe officials along the railways in the Soviet Union, so these officials turned a blind eye to the fact that they could pull heavy equipment out of the Soviet Union with one column after another.
The Soviet machine feels stupid and coarse, but from another point of view, it is made of sufficient materials, solid and reliable. The fuselage of some heavy-duty machine tools is solid monolithic cast iron, which makes the vibration of the bed very weak during the operation of these machine tools, which can better ensure the accuracy of machining.
Most of the Soviet equipment was sent to the Luzhong Machine Tool Factory, some of which could be used directly for production, while others were modified as necessary to improve their performance by a grade or two. As an enterprise that produces heavy machine tools, Luzhong Machine Tool Factory needs to process many large machine parts, and this batch of Soviet equipment can meet such needs.
"That's a good thing!" Watching a 6,000-ton free-forging hydraulic press dismantled from a tank factory in the Urals being rebuilt in the workshop of Luzhong Machine Tool Factory, Ma Shengfan said to Lin Zhenhua with emotion.
In many heavy machinery and equipment, there will be some large forging parts, such as the shell of nuclear power equipment, large water turbine rotors, marine crankshafts, heavy machine tool spindles, etc. To produce these large forging parts, it is necessary to rely on large forging hydraulic presses. At that time, only Shanghai Heavy Machinery Factory, China's No. 1 Heavy Machinery Factory and No. 2 Heavy Machinery Factory had more than 3 hydraulic presses of more than 10,000 tons, and there was also a 6,000-ton hydraulic press in China. When Luzhong Machine Tool Factory used to forge large forgings, it could only be sent to Shanghai Heavy Machinery Factory for processing, which was very troublesome.
Today, Luzhong Machine Tool Factory also has its own 6000 tons of hydraulic presses, which means that the equipment level of Luzhong Machine Tool Factory has stepped onto a new level, although it is not enough to sit on an equal footing with domestic leading enterprises such as a heavy and second heavy, but the gap is already very limited.
"Old Ma, guess what, how much did it cost us to get this hydraulic press?" Lin Zhenhua asked Ma Shengfan with a smile.
"I guess, why do you have to run for more than 10 million?" Ma Shengfan said. It costs tens of millions of yuan to build a brand-new hydraulic press, and although this one is second-hand, it is still very new, so Ma Shengfan estimates that the price is not much lower.
Lin Zhenhua said proudly: "Let me tell you, I spent less than 500,000 US dollars on this hydraulic press, and less than 2 million yuan for co-authoring RMB." ”
"It's only 2 million!" Ma Shengfan was pleasantly surprised, "Isn't this the same as Bai Xuan?" ”
Lin Zhenhua said: "Isn't it a white choice? The 500,000 also includes the money to be paid to these dozen technicians. ”
As he spoke, he pointed to the dozen or so Soviets who were helping to install the hydraulic press, which was a technical job, and it was really impossible to play without some experience. When Lin Zhenhua spent money to buy the equipment, he had already negotiated the installation of the equipment. ,
"These people, if only they could stay." Ma Shengfan muttered in a low voice, "Xiaolin, our Luzhong Machine Tool Factory has never built such a large hydraulic press in the past, I'm really worried that our workers won't be able to take it." ”
Lin Zhenhua said: "It depends on the personal charm of your Ma factory director." If you can afford it, it's not impossible to get them to stay and work in China. ”
"How much do they want?" Ma Shengfan asked.
Lin Zhenhua said: "I have asked people to inquire, their current salary in the Soviet Union is 200 rubles a month, and the exchange rate of the ruble against the US dollar is about 0.6 to 1, that is, it is equivalent to 330 US dollars, can you afford it?" ”
"It's almost 1,000 yuan." Ma Shengfan hesitated for a moment, nodded, and said: "This price is not too expensive, why are people also from foreign countries, it is normal for the salary to be a little higher." The motivation of these people to do their work is really good. ”
"Hehe, then it's up to you to discuss with them." Lin Zhenhua said, "Lao Ma, now that the equipment is in place, the technology is also available, and a batch of orders has been accumulated, it depends on how you Lao Ma does it." ”
Ma Shengfan slapped his chest loudly and said: "Xiaolin, don't worry, just for our current technical strength, this year's output value of 300 million is absolutely no problem." To achieve 600 million next year and 1000 million the year after next, I dare to make a military order. ”
"Okay, then I'll see."
