"How's that research going?"

As soon as His Majesty's words fell, Xu Shushan immediately understood what he was referring to, naturally it was the production of the arsenal that His Majesty had always been most concerned about, to be precise, a technological innovation closely related to the production of the armament industry. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

At the beginning of the war last year, when he visited his sister in the palace, he had a relatively casual conversation with His Majesty at the dinner table, and during the conversation, His Majesty asked about the production of the factory, and specifically asked about the "fine division of labor".

The so-called "fine division of labor" actually originated from the fact that when the Hanyang Arsenal was first built, due to the shortage of skilled workers, in order to reduce the training time, the production of weapons was decomposed, and each worker only needed to learn the production of one or two parts, so as to shorten the training time from half a year to at least 15 days.

In the years that followed, this "fine division of labor" did not fade because of the increase in skilled workers, but spread to all the factories in China - the Hanyang Arsenal is known as the "mother of China's industry" because it trained the first batch of workers in China, and also formulated the relevant factory management, production management and quality management systems.

And this "fine division of labor", known as the "Hanyang model", did not come from Hanyang, in fact, as early as 1769, the Englishman Josiah? Wedgwood opened the Etruscan Ceramics Factory, where he practiced a fine division of labor, dividing the pottery making process, which was originally done by one person from start to finish, into dozens of specialized processes, each of which was completed by a single person. In this way, the original sense of "potter" no longer exists, only the existence of dredgers, masons, soilworkers, billet workers and other pottery craftsmen have become pottery factory workers, they must work according to a fixed rhythm of work, subject to unified labor management.

It's just that Hanyang was the first to decompose it into modern industrial production, and its application scope continues to expand, but this production method still has its shortcomings, at least in Zhu Yifeng's view, this kind of "fine division of labor" praised by foreign economists, and his mind of the mode of production, that is, the real "assembly line production" There is still a certain gap. It is precisely because of this that in the course of that meal that Zhu Yifeng mentioned "assembly line production", mentioning the establishment of conveyor belts and production lines in the factory, instead of relying on manpower to transport parts between various workshops and employees as in the past.

This requirement seems simple, only a conveyor belt needs to be set up in the process of rifle production, but there are many problems involved in actual production, the speed of the transfer belt, the proficiency of workers, the assembly of weapons, and so on There are too many problems to solve, so since accepting this concept, Xu Shushan has been studying this technology with a group of technicians in the company.

"Your Majesty, now the Hanyang Arsenal has begun to try to combine the assembly line with the production of artillery, but the production of artillery is not as simple as a rifle because of its large parts......

When Xu Shushan explained the problems encountered in the current "assembly line production", Zhu Yi nodded from time to time, and then when he heard that there was a problem with the assembly of the assembly line, he immediately suggested.

"Something wrong with the plant? Is the factory equipped with the production line not matching? As for the design of the plant, you can cooperate with the construction company to let the other party take into account you" Wedgwood's working method can be completely defined as an "assembly line".

The reason for mentioning the redesign of the plant, which combines the design of the plant with the production line, originated from Ford, which was the initiator of the assembly line production. Ford has increased the production of vehicles and reduced costs through production lines.

Assembly line production, for this era, people may not be clear about his role, but Zhu Yifeng is very clear that assembly line production can be said to be an industrial revolution, which has fundamentally changed industrial production and changed the whole world. In another world, Ford changed everything through the production line, and here, Zhu Yifeng naturally hopes that this Ford belongs to China.

"Well, so how is the current attempt to produce artillery on the assembly line?"

Zhu Yifeng already has some understanding of the assembly line production of rifles, the output has doubled, and the cost has dropped by 20%, but after all, it is only a small production. And Xu Shushan's answer naturally made him very satisfied, although the production line has encountered some problems now, but it is still the same as the production of rifles and other weapons, the output is increasing, the cost is decreasing, and this is the purpose of promoting the production line.

“…… According to Chen's understanding of assembly line production, if it can be promoted to at least other industries in the country, it is expected that it will contribute to the increase of factory capacity, well, it should be able to increase by 20%-50%! ”

Although the concept of the production line was proposed by His Majesty, Xu Shushan, as a researcher of all this, naturally had his desire to promote this mode of production, and now, as the head of the Hanyang Group, he knew that this enterprise was the end of his career, because its size made it impossible for him to privatize it. Two years ago, the government had already carried out the "restructuring" of the Hanyang Group, and the "privatization" restructuring was carried out. According to the articles of association of Hanyang Group formulated at that time, the total initial capital of the group was 200 million yuan, and a total of 1 million shares were divided. Non-Chinese government and persons are not allowed to subscribe for shares, of which the imperial government subscribed for 500,000 shares, totaling 100 million yuan. In reality, however, the Imperial Government did not pay a penny, but filled it with the right to operate factories, docks, railways, mines, and all other property actually owned by the Hanyang Group. As for the other 100 million yuan, it will be solved by raising shares of 20 million yuan and issuing "Hanyang" bonds of 80 million yuan. Among them, the recruited shares are 200 yuan per share, a total of 100,000 shares. However, under the operation of the imperial government, the number of private shareholders of these 100,000 shares is as high as 10,912. In this way, it was difficult for private shareholders to pool their forces to exercise their shareholder rights, thus providing the safest guarantee for the imperial government to exercise absolute control over "Hanyang", and even those powerful people who were its shareholders had no way to influence the operation of the group.

Moreover, it is clear to outsiders from the operation of its capital, the orders of the imperial government, and the articles of association of the Hanyang Group that although the Hanyang Group is a "private corporate organization" on the surface, it is by no means a free enterprise. It is a strong company that must be operated in strict accordance with the special requirements and regulations of the state. It is a state monopoly enterprise representing the will of the imperial government, a "national policy enterprise" implemented by the imperial government to implement the "industrial policy" of the imperial government, and an important institution for the promotion of China's industrialization.

Because of this, Xu Shushan never regarded the company as a simple enterprise, but an enterprise with a mission, and its mission is very simple, which is to promote the industrialization of the country. And in order to complete this concept, he even proposed a "wolf breeding plan" for the suddenly expanding market.

The core of the "Wolf Breeding Program" is to help other enterprises develop by exporting technology, equipment and management personnel to non-Hanyang enterprises. While they are developing, the country's industrial power is also increasing rapidly. Although Hanyang has strengthened its competitors in the process, it is also growing itself.

And since then, Xu Shushan has also adjusted the development plan of the enterprise, began to implement the comprehensive implementation of the development plan, and on the premise of insisting on the factory-based, its business tentacles have been rapidly extended to the operation of railways and seaports, the operation of shipping, the operation of hotel services, the operation of coal mines, the operation of electricity, and the municipal construction of cities along the gas and railways, etc., and has achieved rich economic benefits in a short period of time, and now Hanyang is undoubtedly stronger than in the past.

Now the reason why he mentions the spread of assembly line production is, of course, the beginning of the "wolf breeding plan", and on the other hand, for him, he needs to expand his influence in the business world, after all, the palace that is calm on the surface is not necessarily so calm, and there seems to be no conflict between the little sister and the concubine, but everyone knows that the concubine who was born in a merchant has been in charge of the operation of the imperial property, and it is a chamber of commerce composed of a group of Guangdong businessmen with the Lingnan consortium. They had a very close connection with the concubine, and the two could be said to complement each other, they needed the political influence of the concubine, and of course, the royal financial resources to support it, and on the other hand, the concubine also needed those people.

Some things must be prevented, some things, even Xu Shushan is not willing to do, but he has to face it, after all, that is his only sister, and His Royal Highness the King of Han is also his nephew, there are some things he must do, he must continue to expand his influence in business, only in this way, can he suppress the ambition on the other side, after all, ambition has always swelled with the increase of strength, just like the majesty in front of him, if it is not because of the expansion of strength, how can he declare war on Britain?

“…… The application of the production line in the production of automobiles should be studied......"

The thoughtful Xu Shushan didn't even notice what His Majesty was saying, he was just thinking about another competing opponent in his heart......
