Chapter 127 Production

Zhenhua company's machinery manufacturing plant production equipment has been installed, is currently in the process of intensive commissioning, and the power plant has begun to generate electricity, to the machinery factory manufacturing plant power line has also been laid, otherwise many machine production equipment can not be started without electricity.

The power generation equipment of the power plant mainly adopts low-temperature and low-pressure chain boiler steam generator sets, with a standard coal consumption rate of more than 520 g/kWh, a total of six, and twelve large oil-fired generator sets as auxiliary and standby power generation facilities, initially put into a low-temperature and low-pressure chain boiler steam generator set to provide power for the machine manufacturing plant, and the single installed capacity of a low-temperature and low-pressure chain boiler coal-fired steam generator set is 10,500 kilowatts. If all the generator sets are put into use, the total installed capacity can reach 100,000 kilowatts, and you should know that although these equipment are second-hand, they are also the most advanced equipment in Germany, not even in Japan. The oil-fired generator was invented by the Germans more than ten years ago, and after more than ten years of research and development, the fuel energy utilization rate has been greatly improved.

A power plant can not only provide electricity for a machinery manufacturing plant, want not to lose money, to make money must find other way out, if most of the power generation equipment of the power plant is started, enough to supply the power supply of the surrounding counties and towns, so that not only solves the power problem of the machinery manufacturing plant, but also can make money for the power supply of the surrounding counties and towns.

Now the workers of the power plant are laying the line to the county seat of Baoshan and some surrounding towns, which has been approved by the government, and the county order is of course happy to see it happen. This is also his political achievement, and there is no difficulty in agreeing to it. And there was no benefit fee, and even Songjiang Prefecture in the west sent people to ask Zhenhua Company to pave the wires and lines. Of course, Zhenhua Company couldn't ask for it, and immediately sent someone to deal with the matter.

If you want to let the people use electricity, you must lay good wires and lines, and at the same time, you must also let the people afford electricity, so this price must not exceed the price of electricity in the concession, and now the power generation cost of the power plant is similar to that of the Concession Electric Power Bureau, but if you want to use electricity more often, you must also reduce the cost, so Xiao Zhenlei specially convened a meeting of the director of the power plant, the deputy director and the director of the power generation workshop, as well as some technical personnel, and asked to try their best to reduce the cost of power generation production. Only by reducing the cost will it help to popularize electricity.

After the meeting, the directors, deputy directors and directors of the production workshop of the power plant discussed and studied with the technical personnel, and decided to start from the technical point of view on the one hand, try to find ways to improve the combustion utilization rate of coal burning and reduce the coal consumption rate, and on the other hand, lay the power lines as much as possible, increase the number of generating units, and expand the scale of power generation production. It is also necessary to reduce losses in other aspects, such as reducing unnecessary expenses and saving costs.

After dealing with the affairs of the power plant, Xiao Zhenlei concentrated on watching the technicians stationed by Lihe Foreign Bank in the machinery factory to debug the production equipment, which was very tedious. It requires patience and carefulness, and it is necessary not to be impatient in order to make the machine qì production equipment reach the original high-precision range. And you have to coax those foreign devils.

"It's a little bit worse in terms of accuracy, it's not good. Keep tuning! Xiao Zhenlei took a bearing, measured the diameter with a caliper, and said.

"Oh, okay. I'll try again! A German shrugged in agreement.

This is in the debugging of a lathe, just after the installation, the parts of the lathe and the lathe should have been too different from the accuracy, after several adjustments, the situation has improved, and the gap with the ideal accuracy has been very small, but Xiao Zhenlei is not satisfied, because he knows that the higher the manufacturing accuracy of this kind of machine, the better.

After two more attempts, Xiao Zhenlei was finally satisfied with the results after the measurement, praised the foreign devil well, and then instructed others to continue to adjust other machines, so that the workers began to familiarize themselves with the operation of the equipment that had been adjusted.

In the afternoon, Xiao Zhenlei convened a meeting of the bigwigs of the machinery manufacturing factory, which mainly determined the production products and development direction of the machinery manufacturing plant in the future, which is a very important thing.

Xiao Zhenlei looked at Hall, Deng Huaming, Lin Zhi, Chen Huizu and others: "Today's adjustment progress must be clear to everyone, it is estimated that in another week or so, no more than ten days, the factory's production machine will be fully adjusted, and then it will enter the production operation run-in period, this time is mainly to exercise the workers' proficiency in the operation of the machine and the tacit understanding, this time may take a month or two months, or it may be three months, So what products does our factory want to produce during this time? Because it is the run-in period of production operation, at the beginning of the workers are not familiar with the operation of the machine, there will definitely be a lot of defective products, so the products we produce can not be too consumable, the parts produced must be simple, and the loss is too great for us to afford. Second, when the workers are proficient in operating the machine, there are fewer defective products, and the run-in period of production operation is over, so what products are we going to produce next? Do you have any thoughts? ”

General Manager Hall was the first to express his opinion, he said: "Mr. President, our company is now in the initial stage, I think we can't produce too complex and too high requirements for the accuracy of parts in the early stage, we can try to produce bicycles, or rickshaws?" ”

Compared with other machines or vehicles, the parts of the bicycle are undoubtedly quite a kind of vehicle, and the price of this vehicle is not expensive, the common people can afford it, if you can produce a bicycle that is cheaper than those foreign bicycles on the streets of Shanghai, it is not worrying that there is no market.

Hall continued: "It can be said that the slightly technical parts on the bicycle are chains, sprockets, and cranksets, but these parts are simply too pediatric with our precision production equipment, except for pneumatic tires, some other parts are very easy to manufacture, and some parts I think can be found in other small machine manufacturing factories and packaged out, so that it will not wear out on our cutting-edge machine, but also can drive other enterprises around it, so that they can have a bite to eat. As for pneumatic tires. As far as I know, there is not a single factory in China that can produce at the moment. The only way is to import and find a foreign factory to OEM. In addition to bicycles, rickshaws can also be produced, rickshaws are simpler than bicycles, and the rickshaws on the market are imported from Japan, but if we produce them ourselves, then both in terms of production costs and transportation costs, they are much lower than imports from Japan! ”

Xiao Zhenlei applauded and smiled: "Okay, very good." Mr. Hall is my favorite general manager! ”

Others applauded and agreed with Hall's idea, after all, during the run-in period, it was too much waste to produce too precise machines, and it was undoubtedly much less difficult to produce bicycles and rickshaws.

Xiao Zhenlei asked: "Then Mr. Hall, after the run-in period, what products do we mainly produce, have you thought about it?" ”

Hall thought for a while and said, "Mr. President, a machinery manufacturing factory of this scale like Zhenhua Company is the first in the Qing Kingdom. It can be rare in the entire Far East, if the entire industrial zone is completed and put into operation, it is not impossible to become the first in the Far East, it depends on what direction the president wants to develop! ”

Xiao Zhenlei smoked a cigarette. "My idea is to build this place into a machine manufacturing industry chain base, and our equipment is all industrial machine tools, ready to be used to make machine machinery. On this basis, drive other businessmen to engage in equipment manufacturing and develop China's own industry! ”

Hall shrugged his shoulders and said, "Then what else is there to say." President, you have set the direction for our future, so after the run-in period has passed. We will open full horsepower production lathes, milling machines, planers, drilling machines, grinding machines, boring machines, in the production at the same time, we can not ignore the sales of products, otherwise, the products are not marketable, the products produced by our factory will be backlogged, which will occupy a lot of funds, which is very unfavorable for production! ”

Everyone else nodded, after all, they only produce products, and if they can't sell them, it's useless, which is tantamount to losing money, which everyone knows.

Xiao Zhenlei said with a smile: "It seems that in addition to the excellent quality and precision of the products we produce, the position of marketing director is very important, Mr. Liang Jingwen, do you have any comments or opinions on this?" ”

A young man in his thirties wearing a suit and glasses stood up and said: "I am very grateful to the president for appointing me as the marketing director, I use one sentence to explain the importance of product sales, that is, 'the aroma of wine is also afraid of deep alleys', so if we want to sell our products, we must let people know how good our things are, how much cheaper the price is than similar products, we must also train the staff to speak, no matter how good the things are, the salesman can not sell them, I believe that as long as we work hard, sales are not a problem!" ”

Xiao Zhenlei found that I have to say that Liang Jingwen has almost touched the essence of the modern sales industry, if you want to sell things, you have to look at the market demand, and demand can be driven, today's China is poor and white, the industry is almost zero, and there are not a few machines in this way, can it be said that foreigners don't want to ship the machine to sell? Of course not, as long as there is money to be made, foreigners can sell their ancestors, the problem is that there is really not much demand for machines in China now, why? On the one hand, because the people's scientific and cultural level is too low, and the vast majority of people are illiterate, even if it is organic, it is not good to operate without a long time of training, this time is too long, and the current Chinese capitalists simply cannot afford to lose, so there are very few machinery manufacturing factories now, and even if there are, they are only small in scale, and the technical content of the parts produced is very poor. On the other hand, the reason is the lack of science and technology, how can factories be opened without technology to open the way? Not to mention technology, how many Chinese in this period knew how to manufacture machinery, and how many knew how to design drawings?

However, now the West's technological blockade of the East is far less strict than that of later generations, as long as you are willing to pay, you can still invite technical personnel from abroad, and most of the technical personnel of Zhenhua Company are invited from foreigners.

In the case of technical support, as long as there is money to be made, there will definitely be people who are willing to start the parts manufacturing factory, Zhenhua company can send technical guidance, downstream factories can develop from one to two, and then develop from two to three, four???????, with the extension of time, China's industry will form an industrial scale.
