Chapter 7 Working Procedures
Lao Wu's major in college was nominally chemical technology, but because of the political movement that swept the country, in fact, in the second semester of his junior year, the school was basically closed, so he did not learn much professional knowledge.
In the first few years of work, the chaotic situation in the factory is not conducive to the improvement of personal learning in professional knowledge, in that environment, within a few years, Lao Wu has almost forgotten most of the basic knowledge he learned in college, and now he can become the technical director of the second workshop, completely by virtue of his college diploma, after all, in a local state-owned enterprise such as the Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory, there are only a handful of college graduates assigned in recent years.
As for the title of the book reported by Fang Hanmin, Lao Wu has never heard of it, but according to the name of the author, he can judge that this is a monograph on pharmaceutical technology written by foreign scholars.
Although he had never heard of this book, let alone read this monograph, it was indeed a bit embarrassing for Lao Wu, but through this incident, he felt that the mystery that had plagued him for many days seemed to have an answer.
No wonder colleagues say that this nerd is holding a book all day long, and it turns out that he is drilling into the process of drug development! It seems that Fang Hanmin's proposal for process improvement of the "acylation" post is not imaginary, but based on book theory.
Lao Wu still remembers the first time he discussed the "acylation" process improvement plan with Fang Hanmin, Fang Hanmin talked about the mechanism of action of the reaction medium, and he wondered at that time, how could a temporary worker who had been in the factory for more than a year understand such an esoteric theory? Now, the mystery has finally been solved.
Thinking of this, Lao Wu said calmly: "To be honest, this is the first time I've heard you talk about the title of this book. ”
"Heh, heh," Fang Hanmin smiled strangely, intending to bury his head and continue reading.
"Xiao Fang, this kind of foreign academic monograph, it seems that domestic bookstores have not seen it, where did you buy this kind of book?"
Of course, Lao Wu would not have known that in the 1980s, not only could no such books be seen in China, but also no such monographs appeared abroad, because this was an academic work published in the new century, and many of the cutting-edge technological processes in the book had not been studied even in developed countries at that time!
Lao Wu's questioning made Fang Hanmin a little uneasy, it was originally a non-existent matter, Fang Hanmin didn't have any "Pharmaceutical Process Development" at hand, how could he justify himself?
After a little thought, Fang Hanmin made up a reason, although it was far-fetched and could not withstand careful scrutiny, but it was enough to deal with Lao Wu, "I had a good relationship with a teacher in high school, and his family had a relative who was abroad, and when he knew that I was working as a temporary worker in the Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory, he asked his relative to buy me this book and send it back. ”
"Oh---, it seems to be the original English book, can you read it?" Lao Wu's doubts have not been dispelled.
"I didn't understand the original academic monographs because of the English I learned in high school, and I didn't know anything about the techniques introduced in the books at first, so I decided to learn English on my own while slowly devouring the contents of the books. The hard work paid off, and after more than a year of hard work, I finally understand some of the fur. ”
Lao Wu nodded, his colleagues said that Fang Hanmin was an impersonal nerd, and laughed at him for holding the book when he was fine, how did they know that Fang Hanmin not only had to teach himself English, but also had to drill the professional knowledge in the monograph on the development of pharmaceutical technology, how could he have time to think about interpersonal relationships!
After learning about these situations, Lao Wu had a trace of sincere admiration for Fang Hanmin, he felt that Fang Hanmin's spirit of hard work and dedication to pharmaceutical technology, not only he couldn't do it himself, but also looked at the two or three thousand employees in the whole factory, and no one else could do it!
......
Although he knew that the test presided over by Fang Hanmin was very successful, the workshop director Lao Yang still needed to solicit the opinions of the technical supervisor Lao Wu from the procedure, in order to report to the functional departments and factory leaders in the factory, for this reason, a week ago, he handed over the test summary report and test results summary table to Lao Wu, a week passed, he couldn't help but ask Lao Wu's opinions and opinions.
"I have read both the summary report and the test results, and I have the impression that the test presided over by Fang Hanmin is very successful, and the test summary report is also very well written!"
Lao Wu's frank admission dispelled Lao Yang's concerns, he thought that Lao Wu would stay out of the matter as he did some time ago, and even prevent the process improvement from continuing, it seems that he thought too much, "Do you think we should take some time to report the test situation to the factory?" ”
"It's not about taking time, but now it's time to report to the factory, I don't think anything in our second workshop is more important than this!"
"Okay, let's go to the technical department and report now."
In the office of the Technical Department of the Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory, Lao Wu took out Fang Hanmin's test summary report and test result summary table, "Section Chief Xue, take a look at this." ”
"What is this?" Lao Xue looked at the two leaders of the second workshop blankly.
"Just look at it."
Lao Xue spent nearly half an hour, carefully reading and reviewing the test report and result summary table from beginning to end, and then looked up and asked, "Have you done the test in the workshop?" This is the process of the test and the results of the test? ”
"Yes, what you see is the summary report of the trial and the summary of the test results, but to be precise, we support the trial, but we don't do the trial ourselves." Lao Wu clarified.
"I don't understand, what do you mean by that? How could the experiment not be done by you? In addition to your two leaders, who else in the second workshop can do such a test? ”
Lao Wu gave a general explanation of the cause of the incident, and Section Chief Xue couldn't believe that the matter was true, "A temporary worker came up with such a bold and advanced idea? And then he personally presided over and completed the experiment? You're not kidding me, are you? ”
"Section Chief Xue, there are so many technical problems in the second workshop, how can we have the heart to joke with you!" Lao Yang said seriously.
"Well, no kidding. However, your test was not submitted to the technical department for approval, and there were procedural problems, which was a mistake on the part of your two leaders. ”
Lao Yang hurriedly took the responsibility, because the matter was originally decided by him, "Section Chief Xue, the responsibility for this matter lies with me, and it has nothing to do with Wu Gong." To be honest, I didn't have much hope for the young man when he proposed to improve the process technology of the 'acylation' post, but his motivation was good, and his work enthusiasm was worthy of recognition, and of course we as workshop leaders should support him. Fortunately, to improve the process, only need to replace a reaction medium, other conditions remain the same, no need to move the public, so I decided to find a set of equipment in the workshop to do the test, if the test is successful and then report to the factory, the test is not successful to gently put down, this is all my fault. ”
Section Chief Xue and Lao Yang are both middle-level cadres of the Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory, Lao Yang has been working at the grassroots level for a long time, hard-working, hard-working, and hard-working, the factory leaders have to open up to the workshop director of the production line, even if Lao Yang's original decision was procedurally improper, but he has admitted his mistake, and its purpose is to solve technical problems for the second workshop, if Lao Xue continues to pursue this matter, it will be out of place.
Of course, Lao Yang took into account the blame of the technical department when he made the decision, but he thought that he was very frank, because everything he did was for work, and it was a big deal that he went to the factory director to plead guilty.
In fact, compared with solving the technical problems of the second workshop, the procedural problems at work are not a big deal, not only Lao Yang knows this, but the head of the technical department Xue knows more about which is more important, so he does not plan to dwell on this trivial matter.
Seeing that Lao Yang took the responsibility and made self-criticism again, Lao Xue waved his hand, "I'm just casually talking, the matter is not as serious as you think, didn't you achieve such a good test result?" That's encouraging news! ”
"What does Section Chief Xue mean, what should we do next?"
"You are grassroots leaders, I want to hear your plans or ideas first."
"We want to transplant the test process directly to the 'acylation' position of the workshop production line, so as to realize the technical transformation of the existing production process."
"It's a good idea, but I want to know how sure it will be if it is transplanted directly to the production line?" Although Lao Xue knows nothing about the process technology of the second workshop, he still has to say what he pretends to say, otherwise how can he reflect that he is the leader of the technical department of the whole plant?
Lao Wu on the side said confidently: "I have carefully studied the test process in the test summary report, and I think it is feasible to transplant the test process directly to the production line, and it will definitely be successful!" ”
What really gave Lao Wu confidence was not that he carefully studied Fang Hanmin's test summary report, but because he knew that the test was no different from regular production, plus his understanding of the drug development process through contact with Fang Hanmin a few days ago.
After receiving such an affirmative answer, Section Chief Xue was naturally very satisfied, "In that case, in what areas do you need the help of the technical department?" For example, we submitted the process technology improvement report of the second workshop to the factory, and requested the factory to give the second workshop support in terms of financial and material resources. ”
"Thank you, Section Chief Xue, for thinking so much about us! If the test process is directly transplanted to the 'acylation' post of the production line, there is basically no need for the factory to invest in the second workshop, at most a few valves or a small number of pipes can be replaced, and these spare parts are in stock in the second workshop warehouse. ”
Lao Yang and Lao Wu reported the test situation and the next plan to the technical department, the purpose of which is just to go through the work procedures, not to get any help from the technical department, after all, this is the technical transformation of a post in the second workshop, and it is unreasonable to report to the technical department of the whole plant in any case.
Lao Xue planned to report this matter to the factory leaders immediately, and Lao Yang told him that there was no need to alarm the factory leaders for the technical transformation of a post, and even if it was necessary to report, it was best to wait until the process transformation of the "acylation" post in the second workshop was completed......
Back in the office of the second workshop, Lao Yang asked about the specific implementation plan of the next step, and Lao Wu said without thinking: "Give it to Fang Hanmin, just like you asked him to preside over the test last time, and this time let him be fully responsible for the process transformation of the 'acylation' post." ”
Lao Wu's attitude towards Fang Hanmin has changed one hundred and eighty degrees, which is completely beyond Lao Yang's expectations, "Last time it was just an experiment, this time it is a large-scale process transformation, no matter the workload or the various relationships involved, as well as the management of personnel and materials, both have their own differences, and give such an important task to Fang Hanmin, do you think it is feasible?" ”
