040 Sudden Alarm
The meal was unusually rich, and all kinds of local snacks from the farmhouse were put into battle one after another, so that there was no space at all on a table of the Eight Immortals. If it weren't for Chen Wenhao'www.biquge.info s efforts to say that he would drive back today, he would probably have been dragged by the old man to drink some liquor.
The old man who agreed to cooperate with the factory looked a lot more relaxed and talked a lot, and Chen Wenhao also learned about the situation faced by the factory: the order in hand only had less than half a month's workload, and the new order was searched for to no avail. If he hadn't taken over the factory, he would have planned to stop working and sell it after finishing the rest of the work.
"This is basically the case in the industry, the large ones can still hold up, and the small and medium-sized ones are basically difficult to maintain." The old man took a sip of wine, "The previous colleagues either moved the factory to an inland city, and the cost could be lower; Either they sold the factory a few years earlier, and most of the money was invested in buying a house. ”
He slammed the empty wine glass on the table, "I'm too old to read." The hard work of the factory for a whole year, if you don't do it, you have to lose money, you don't have to do anything to flip the house, you can make a lot of money lying down and sleeping. There used to be a colleague in the village, who sold the factory three years ago and bought four houses in the city, and now the house price has at least tripled. The last time I met, what did people say: the happiest thing was that I sold the factory and bought a house at that time, but I was unhappy that I bought too few houses. Tell me, who is willing to do business? ”
Jiang Wei interjected next to him, "Are you talking about Uncle Liufu?" Didn't he advise you to sell the factory early and buy a house last time, saying that it could still rise. ”
"! If the factory is not opened, what will happen to the workers? The old man glared, refilled the wine glass, picked it up and took a big sip, "The rest of the factory are workers who have followed me and your uncle for many years, if it is really impossible to hold on, we will sell the factory?" ”
Chen Wenhao listened quietly beside him. In the past, he had little contact with industrial enterprises, especially small and medium-sized enterprises, and those who have been in the Internet industry will unconsciously feel that the Internet can save the world, and the traditional industries are already antique. Today's communication made him thoughtful.
After the family banquet, Chen Wenhao took out the formula information of the new titanium alloy, which is a reduced version of the performance index of the small card. When he was in Xiangjiang, he had already entrusted a law firm to apply for and register patents for the two technologies of new titanium alloy formula and high-performance large-capacity battery, both domestically and internationally. Although he is not afraid of others competing with him in technology, it is also a troublesome matter if it is leaked out.
Although he has not signed a formal transfer contract, he is trustworthy to Jiang Wei's family, and told him to pay attention to the formula, which is also convenient for the factory to do the test first and get the product out in advance.
The old man was like a treasure, he looked at the information with him, and spoke only halfway, "It is written very carefully, and what conditions and materials to be put are marked." I looked at the process requirements, it is not very high, and the equipment in the factory can do it. ”
He looked at Chen Wenhao, "When do you want it?" If I'm in a hurry, I'll take someone to work overtime tonight. The current work in the factory is more urgent, it can be done in 10 days, and when the time comes, all the people will be invested in it, if it goes well, I estimate that it will be done in two weeks. ”
Chen Wenhao estimated the arrival time of the machine tool ordered, and said, "Don't be in such a hurry, the follow-up equipment will take about a month to be in place, and you can successfully trial produce it within a month." ”
"That's fine." The old man patted the information, "I'll prepare the test materials first, there are ready-made aluminum and tin ingot factories in the factory, just purchase a batch of titanium sponge." Now the price of titanium sponge has also fallen, about more than 50,000 tons. ”
"By the way, you said earlier that the finished product is used internally by the company, what kind of product do you plan to make?" The old man suddenly thought of this and added, "As long as the finished product can meet the design standards, in fact, resale is the safest, and there is absolutely no worry about sales." If you want to use it yourself, have you found a processing plant? The most troublesome thing about titanium alloy is that it is difficult to process. ”
"How many machines do we have in our factory? How many masters can control the machine tool? Chen Wenhao, who was reminded, asked.
"The factory is usually connected with processing business, and now there are two machine tools, a traditional one, and a CNC machine tool is a new loan bought in the first two years."
"As for those who can drive machine tools, old machine tools will be used, CNC machine tools except for Xiaoyu, my brother and I have no problem." The old man patted his chest and said.
Jiang Wei added beside him, "The Xiaoyu that my dad said is actually in his forties, and he is the youngest in their group. But then the machine tool was bought, my dad and my uncle said that they must learn, the two of them held the book every day, around the machine, the engineers sent by the equipment factory were annoyed by them, and the result was really learned, and it was very slippery. ”
"Why don't you kid learn, then you don't have to work so hard as your uncle."
"Who says you haven't learned? But don't mention it, I really don't have the talent for it. Jiang Wei's face fell, "Otherwise, I would have studied engineering in college for some liberal arts major." Besides, now I do the finance and administration of the factory, and I'm also very busy. ”
Chen Wenhao rolled his eyes at Jiang Wei.
The old man's words reminded Chen Wenhao that the five-axis machine tool he ordered was intended to be used as a moon flying vehicle, so the required specifications were relatively high.
However, the products produced in the planned reduced version of titanium alloy materials are to be sold to the outside world, and it is impossible to make them all on his machine tool.
If the factory here has the processing capacity, there is no need to find another processing plant for the time being. The initial low production efficiency is fine, and the market responds well and then slowly increases production.
The old man saw that Chen Wenhao was pondering, as if he was thinking about processing, and explained, "If you really want to process titanium alloy here, the machine tools in the factory need to be upgraded, at least a cooling system must be added. ”
"Not only the cooling system, if it can really achieve the strength of the finished product described in the data, it is estimated that a set of high-strength cutter heads will have to be replaced, otherwise it will not be sharpened." The old man's brother added on the side.
These are not big problems, and Chen Wenhao doesn't care about the difficulties in front of him. As long as there is a foundation, upgraded technology and funding will not be an obstacle.
Prior to this, Chen Wenhao had already learned about some titanium alloy processing. Titanium alloy materials are recognized as one of the most difficult materials to machine in the machining industry. This can be seen from the high price of titanium alloy products on the market.
The most likely thing that ordinary people are exposed to should be laptops with titanium alloy shells, which are basically used in high-end models of various brands, and the price is much more expensive than those made of injection molds.
In fact, the material of titanium alloy itself is not particularly expensive, the cost of raw materials for aerospace-grade standard titanium alloy is about 500 yuan per kilogram, if it is only to make the shell of a laptop, counting the loss during processing, it will use 2 kg of material to survive, which may be about 1000 yuan more expensive than the cost of less than 100 yuan for ordinary injection molds. However, in the actual sales, we will find that the products that use titanium alloy are far more expensive than this difference.
The real reason why it sells expensive is that it is expensive to process.
One of the characteristics of titanium alloys is that they have a low thermal conductivity, which means that they transfer heat slowly. In order not to generate a lot of heat, the cutting speed of the tool is very slow when processing titanium alloy, resulting in a long processing time and the cost will naturally rise.
In addition, when processing titanium alloys, it is necessary to prepare more complete cooling equipment than other materials. Otherwise, the titanium alloy chips cut off during processing will burn at a temperature of 200 degrees Celsius when the cooling is not good, and then cause a fire. So
In order to improve the processing efficiency of titanium alloys, some large factories also use liquid nitrogen for processing and cooling. This adds a significant increase in costs.
Therefore, if you take the laptop shell as an example, the raw material is 1000 yuan, and the processing fee may be 1500 yuan or even more, which is one of the reasons why the price of a laptop with a titanium alloy shell is so expensive.
However, Chen Wenhao does not have to worry about the cost. He is going to make the flying machine in secret, and as long as it is within the affordable range, it must be the best materials. As for the products that are secretly planned to be released to the public, he believes that as long as consumers see the finished products, it will be difficult to resist their charm.
There are too many products produced in China that are "really cheap and have good performance", and he has such technical support as a small truck, plus he is not short of money, and his ambition is to be able to mark the high-end label for "Made in China". It doesn't necessarily mean that the price is the most expensive, but the performance and configuration must be "cool enough to have no friends".
Thinking that Xiangjiang's Dai Yuqian team should be coming over in the next two days, he made an appointment with Jiang Wei's father to sign a contract this week.
While eating and talking, I ate a meal for more than three hours, and it was already four o'clock in the afternoon when I said goodbye.
On the way home, Chen Wenhao was in a happy mood and hummed a little song along with the radio music. At the very least, the casing material of the lunar vehicle has been settled, which can be regarded as a big step forward in the revolutionary cause.
At this moment, the surveyor watch, which had been quiet for a long time, suddenly sounded the voice of the small card: [Alarm! Someone invaded the house. 】
