Finally, Weifu went to the machinery factory for a private visit, but it was called 'big stick mallet', and Zhou Qingfeng was about to go to the wall. But he also knows that now there are more people scolding him in Tianyang, and calling him 'big stick mallet' is a very civilized and polite term.

After a round in the foundry, the situation in the factory is quite satisfactory.

Since wielding a big knife to lay off employees, leaving aside the layoffs, the remaining employees are basically the same people. But they immediately became highly motivated.

One is the fear of being laid off, and the other is the reciprocity of pay and benefits. As long as the reward and punishment system is correct, ordinary workers can also exert strong productivity.

The new die-casting machine is a pilot. This is a reminder in the report written by Ding Wenjiang. Zhou Qingfeng consulted with the advisory group and decided to buy it from the e-commerce plane.

Die casting and casting are two completely different technical routes, and it is not possible to say that one is definitely better than the other. But on small cast aluminum workpieces, die casting still has a great advantage.

The main thing is that it is fast, low cost and good working environment.

Before 91, the domestic electricity supply was really insufficient. There was a long-term shortage of electrolytic aluminum, and it only exceeded one million tons in 92.

However, with the continuous improvement of the power supply system, the domestic electrolytic aluminum production has soared. By the 01 year of the new century, it exceeded 4.33 million tons, ranking first in the world.

And then.....

And then every year first.

In the blink of an eye, overcapacity, long-term oversupply, national control and expansion, elimination of backward production capacity, supply-side reform, and the whole industry have made matters worse.

The originally unattainable electrolytic aluminum has become a sunset industry, and it is no longer high-tech. The aluminum that was still imported in the nineties will have to be exported in the future.

Lao Ding considered for Zhou Qingfeng and felt that the domestic raw material aluminum was insufficient. It is better to use cast iron, the supply is sufficient, and the price is cheap.

But there is a lot of scrap aluminum on the e-commerce plane, which is nothing more than the purchase of a few more electric furnaces, so that the teachers and students of the metallurgical institute can solve the aluminum alloy.

Just a professional counterpart.

"Obviously, I have a long-term vision and have found a good way to develop, and I dare to call me a big mallet." Zhou Qingfeng was so angry. When he leaves the foundry, he has to go to the machine shop to see the machine tools.

Lin Wan turned on the phone, "Mr. Zhou, a few merchants from other provinces have come to the door. Would you like to see it? ”

"What are you looking for me?"

"I said I wanted to talk to you about business."

Zhou Qingfeng was confused, but he still nodded in agreement. He asked the merchants to meet directly at the machine shop, which did not prevent him from continuing to inspect the machine shop.

Only half an hour later, seven or eight merchants with different accents arrived in the 'Star of Chang'an'.

Lin Wan didn't know what to worry about, so she accompanied her personally.

After introducing each other at the gate of the factory, she whispered in Zhou Qingfeng's ear: "The news of Tianyang's enterprise reform has spread, and these guys don't know that the tendon was touched, so they rushed to the news immediately. ”

After shaking hands, Zhou Qingfeng led a few strange businessmen into the factory to visit, and politely welcomed a few words, "Now that Tianyang is messy, it is difficult for you to come to my small factory." ”

A Guangdong businessman immediately shook his head and said in non-standard Mandarin: "Mr. Zhou, what you said is not right." If Tianyang was really messy, I wouldn't have come.

It's been two days since I came to Tianyang, and I found that the people who scolded you had to obey you. They scolded you badly, but there was nothing they could do about you.

The harder you scold, the more bold your enterprise reform will definitely succeed. I had only three points in my heart, but now I have seven points. ”

Hahaha......

Zhou Qingfeng, who was slapped on the back, couldn't stop laughing, but it was much better than Lao Ding's 'big stick mallet'. The Guangdong merchant said calmly, and the tone of his words made Lin Wan snicker.

Another businessman from this province immediately took over the topic, "Mr. Zhou, you are really famous now." If you dare to cut off more than 20,000 iron rice bowls in a city, you are the first.

After being laid off, you can settle all the relationships and be scolded by half of the people in the city. We are all small businesses, and we know all too well the difficulties involved. Admire, really admire! ”

The merchants of this province were amazed. A few people next to him also talked about what they saw and heard when they came to Tianyang, and they all thought that the fundamentals of 'Holy Light' were very solid.

You can't scold just by scolding.

Now there are not many private enterprises, and their strength is also weak. Most of the businessmen who run from east to west are unfortunate masters, and they always have to deal with state-owned enterprises, and they have tasted the bitterness of being despised and neglected and even teased by the 'iron rice bowl'.

Another merchant laughed at himself and said: "I did business with those state-run masters ten years ago, and I really begged them to sell something." You have to give gifts, look at your face, and you have to be blasted out of the door.

I heard that more than 20,000 people's iron rice bowls were smashed in Tianyang, and I happily drank wine with friends all night. Mr. Zhou is so courageous, I thought about coming to meet me the next day. ”

These people who go south and north really have their own tricks.

"Tianyang Machinery Factory has cut from more than 10,000 people to a few thousand, and the monthly salary alone will save millions, and such a factory will definitely be able to live very well."

"Laying off more than 20,000 people will save a lot of trouble. A lot of positions are not for things at all, but for bad things. ”

"Mr. Zhou, tell us about any business, we will definitely support it. Let's get rich together! ”

The first batch of 'merchants' to come were all leather bag companies. They are well-informed, they are fast, and they are there when they have the opportunity. But they don't have much capital.

Zhou Qingfeng didn't put on a show, at least he was in a good mood to be amused by them, so he simply took them into the machining workshop to hang around.

When they entered the workshop, seven or eight merchants didn't talk much. Because the situation in the workshop is even more striking.

Four CNC lathes shipped half a month ago have been installed. Several engineers from the third line and students from the metallurgical institute are operating.

The performance of these miscellaneous machine tools is not satisfactory, and it can be regarded as the inferior goods of later generations. Whether it is CNC, screw, motor or fixture, all from small local factories, the accuracy will inexplicably decline after a long time.

Fortunately, among the consultants and third-line personnel recruited by 'Holy Light', there are proficient in the manufacture and use of machine tools, and many problems are solved.

The lessons learned let Zhou Qingfeng pay attention to the big stick hammer next time, and he has to pick and choose the industrial waste on the e-commerce plane.

However, these four machines often break down inexplicably, but instead they are used to train maintenance and operators with great success.

On the opposite side of the four rotten CNC machine tools, it is the boutique that Zhou Qingfeng bought after selection. The same four, from a large domestic manufacturer, is a mature model after the new millennium.

The numerical control, servo, drive, motion mechanism, and position measurement used in the machine tool are all standard components. The installation of these four machine tools is relatively simple, and they can basically be used in a week.

The machining efficiency of four CNC machines is higher than that of forty ordinary machine tools. The working surface is simple and clean, and the workshop environment is spacious and bright, which is completely different from the dark workshop in ordinary people's cognition.

The college students of the four metallurgical institutes practice in the workshop, and as long as they press a few buttons, the machine tools work by themselves.

Cubic boron nitride or ceramic tools are several times more efficient. What would normally take an hour to complete can now be done in a matter of minutes.

A merchant saw that the 'lathe' who was only in his early twenties had finished several engine cylinders in half an hour, and he excitedly grabbed Zhou Qingfeng's hand and asked tremblingly.

"Mr. Zhou, Mr. Zhou, this ......, this ......, is this machine tool sold? We pay a high price! ”

Zhou Qingfeng laughed at this, "Of course it sells." As long as you can afford the money. ”
