Although there was this discordant episode of Master Liu, Li Weidong still decided to cooperate with Jingcheng Machinery Factory.

The reason is very simple, the Beijing Machinery Factory meets the requirements of the poverty alleviation workshop in terms of staffing and the scale of equipment.

In the large conference room, when Director Hu heard Li Weidong say the news himself, he suddenly became ecstatic.

He said loudly: "Director Li, don't worry, no matter what kind of task you give us to the Beijing Machinery Factory, we will definitely complete it with quality and quantity, and ensure that your affairs will not be delayed." ”

"Director Hu, you don't need to be so polite, our two factories are now in a cooperative relationship."

As he spoke, Li Weidong took out a stack of materials from the canvas bag and handed it to Director Hu.

"This is the request of the Red Star Laboratory of our rolling mill, and then there is the remuneration to be paid to your mill, please study it carefully, if you can, we can sign the agreement today."

Although Director Hu is extremely excited now, he still suppressed his excitement.

He knows very well that there are no steamed buns in the world that are eaten for free, and the reason why Li Weidong cooperates with them must be because he sees their potential.

Director Hu opened the file and looked at it carefully.

Just looked at it for a moment and frowned.

"Director Li, although your drawings above are perfect, there is nothing specific about the production process. Our machinery factory has no way to produce it for the time being. ”

Li Weidong said with a smile: "Director Hu." That's where we all need to work together. I suggest that your factory should send a group of teachers to our laboratory to work with the researchers in our laboratory. Get all the production drawings and production processes out. ”

Hearing this, Director Hu immediately understood Li Weidong's thoughts.

Although the technical level of the researchers in the laboratory is much higher than that of the masters in the workshop, they are new to practical production.

Although the masters in the workshop have rich experience in production practice, their theoretical level is not good.

Only if the two work together will they be able to accomplish the task.

"Don't worry, it just so happens that our machinery factory has no production tasks for the time being, and I can completely remove a group of senior masters to help you. Just the cost of these masters"

Director Hu raised his head and looked at Li Weidong.

Li Weidong said with a smile: "What we need this time is a workshop master above level 6. For each master, we pay a salary according to the level 8 master, 99 yuan per month. In addition, food stamps for 20 catties of fine grains are also provided. At the same time, I also compensate you with 20 yuan per month for each machine. ”

As soon as these words came out, the conference room suddenly fell silent.

The factory leaders couldn't help but gasp.

The laboratory of the steel mill is really rich.

Li Weidong continued: "As long as the drawings and production technology are good, I can also hand over the production line of the next product to your machinery factory." ”

Director Hu slapped the table suddenly: "Hello Director Li, let's just settle it." ”

Just kidding, if someone else asks to cooperate with the machinery factory, Director Hu may hesitate.

But there is an example of an auto repair shop placed there, how can Director Hu not hurry up and hug this thigh.

Li Weidong also knew that the remuneration he paid to the machinery factory far exceeded the market rate.

But he didn't care.

First, the life of the workers in the machinery factory was too hard.

Second, he tested the motorcycle this time, and once it was produced, the profit of the motorcycle would be hundreds of times the cost.

The money I earn has to feed the little brothers next to me.

Otherwise, someone won't help you next time.

That's how he used to treat the mechanic shop, that's why the mechanic factory was so enthusiastic when he saw him this time.

What Li Weidong lacks now is not money, but a factory that can produce qualified production lines.

After the cooperation was reached, Li Weidong returned to the laboratory of the Beijing rolling mill.

Of course, he also brought Master Zhou with him.

Before bringing Master Zhou into the laboratory, Li Weidong gave him a heart-to-heart talk.

"Master Zhou. I know very well that you have a lot of affection for the machine factory, and you are not willing to come to work in our Red Star Laboratory. ”

Master Zhou is an honest person, and when he heard this, he wanted to deny it but couldn't say anything against his will, so he could only hesitate: "Director Li Li." Don't worry, since my Lao Zhou has changed his court, I will work for you wholeheartedly, and I will never be lazy and slippery. ”

"Of course I'm relieved of that. If I didn't know who you were, I wouldn't have paid a lot to dig you into our lab. ”

Li Weidong stood up, patted Master Zhou's shoulder lightly, and said, "Master Zhou." You can rest assured that our Red Star Laboratory will become a world-class laboratory in the future, and after you come to our laboratory, you will definitely be able to contribute to the country.

Of course, I'm going to say that these might be a bit of a braggadocio waiting for you. Once you're in the lab, you'll understand. ”

Master Zhou was also skeptical.

What good things can be made in a small laboratory that has just opened?

But when he entered the laboratory and learned from Zhou Jing about the project that the laboratory was currently researching, he was stunned.

"How is this possible for motorcycles?"

As a level 8 mechanic, Master Zhou was also invited by an external factory to study motorcycles.

Those factories are all deep-rooted, and some of them are still not directly under the factory.

They want money, money, people, and all kinds of policy support, but they don't make motorcycles, or they can't use the motorcycles at all.

How could the Red Star Lab complete this impossible task?

"Master, you still underestimate Director Li in our laboratory. Here are the drawings of our Red Star motorcycle, you will understand it if you study it carefully. ”

Zhou Jing took out a stack of materials from the drawer and handed it to Master Zhou.

Master Zhou is also a master, as an eighth-level fitter, it is impossible to just repair the machine. He is also proficient in mechanical design and can draw various drawings.

He flipped through the drawings and studied them carefully, and immediately gasped.

The parts on the drawings were exquisitely designed and highly technical, far exceeding those he had ever seen.

If you can produce parts according to the drawings, you might be able to make a motorcycle.

Master Zhou suddenly came to his senses.

Every worker has a dream in his heart, that is, his own research, his own design, and his own products, so that he can be recognized by others and be able to gallop north and south of the river.

Master Zhou is no exception.

Now that he has encountered this good opportunity, he naturally cannot miss it.

At this moment, Master Zhou's thoughts about the machinery factory have all disappeared.

Jingcheng Machinery Factory attaches great importance to this cooperation.

On the second day after Li Weidong returned to the rolling mill, the Beijing Machinery Factory sent 12 senior workers to the Red Star Laboratory.

These masters are all sixth and seventh level masters.

Their addition greatly accelerated the progress of the laboratory research drawings.

According to the news from Zhou Jing, perhaps the design of the production line can be completed in just one week.

At that time, the machine shop will be able to start producing the production line needed to produce motorcycles.

Li Weidong knew that he would be very busy in the next month, so he also took advantage of his free time to go to Zhou Xiaobai again.

Since Li Weidong returned to the capital, he has not met Zhou Xiaobai.

The two came to the warehouse where they practiced dance, and while practicing ballet, they had a deep conversation in simple terms.

Life is very happy.

The joys and sorrows of people are not the same, Li Weidong is very happy here, but the workers in the machine repair factory are very depressed.

Because they got the news that at the end of this year, the machine repair factory was supposed to pay double wages, but now the factory has canceled it because of the difficult economic conditions.

In fact, the workers of the machine repair factory also know that they have eaten for two years by relying on the production line given by the steel plant.

However, with the saturation of production lines, almost all domestic factories have this kind of semi-automatic production line, and the orders of machine repair factories are getting fewer and fewer.

By the next year, the machine shop would have to stop producing semi-automatic lines.

Originally, if Li Weidong could cooperate with the machine repair factory again this time, the machine repair factory might be able to get another project similar to a semi-automatic production line.

But now, news came from the Beijing Machinery Factory next door that Li Weidong was cooperating with them, which meant that the auto repair factory was kicked out.

The workers of the machine repair shop know that Liang Ladi in the machine repair workshop has a good relationship with Li Weidong.

So they came to Liang Ladi to complain.

As soon as the two of them went to work today, they were surrounded by the workers of the auto repair factory at the factory gate.

Master Wang, a third-level mechanic, looked at Liang Ladi and said: "Liang Ladi, that Li Weidong is too much of a thing, we helped him like that last time, and now that he has a new project, he doesn't even think about us." How can you be like this? Only think about yourself. ”

Liang Ladi raised her face and said, "Lao Wang, what are you talking nonsense about?" How can Director Li Weidong be the kind of unkind and unrighteous person? After people came up with a new project, the first one thought of our machine repair factory.

People also came to our machine repair factory and wanted to talk about cooperation with our factory leaders, but our factory leaders were unwilling to cooperate with others. ”

At this time, there were already a lot of workers around him, and when they heard this, they immediately talked about it.

"Impossible, didn't our two factories cooperate very happily last time?"

"Yes, cooperating with Li Weidong can make a lot of money, this is something that fools know, how can our factory leaders refuse?"

"Liang Ladi, are you lying?"

The workers were in disbelief at the news.

Liang Ladi didn't know how to explain it for a while, and at this time Cao Shan happened to come over on a bicycle.

Seeing Cao Shan, Liang Ladi hurriedly shouted at the top of her voice: "Master, master." You tell these workers and masters whether our factory has refused to cooperate with Li Weidong. ”

Cao Shan's mood is very bad for a while, very bad.

According to his original plan, after seeing Zhou Wood's refusal of Li Weidong's cooperation, Cao Shan wanted to join forces with those senior masters in the auto repair factory to find Zhou Wood and ask for an explanation.

But he thought about it carefully.

Once this is done, it will definitely affect the unity of the machine repair factory.

The things of Director Huang are still vivid.

After the auto repair factory dismissed Director Huang, it took half a year for the factory to stabilize.

There was chaos in the factory, and it was the ordinary workers who were ultimately affected.

So Cao Shan finally chose to endure it.

Now I hear the workers ask Liang Ladi.

He wanted to hide it, but he couldn't lie.

can only smile and say: "The matter has passed, don't mention it again, now that Li Weidong has talked about cooperation with Beijing Machinery Factory, it has nothing to do with us." Let's focus on production. ”

Although Cao Shan did not answer the question directly, his words also affirmed Liang Lati's statement from the side.

The workers were immediately indignant.

"How did Director Zhou do it? Knowing that in cooperation with Li Weidong, our machine repair factory will definitely be able to take a big advantage. How could he refuse? ”

"yes, yes, if there is a project this time. At the end of the year, we may be able to pay double our salary. ”

"Is it just double pay? You also look down on Li Weidong too much. ”

"My daughter-in-law's brother is a worker in a machine shop, and I had dinner at his place last night. During the meal, he told me that the two had just begun to cooperate, and Li Weidong had not officially handed over the project to the machinery factory. It has already sent thousands of dollars to the machinery factory and sent a large number of materials, including grain, soybeans, and pork.

Now they're crazy in the factory, and by the end of the year, they'll be able to triple their wages. ”

"Triple the salary, my mother, then they can have a good year."

"Grandma's legs, their wages should actually be ours, if our machine repair factory cooperates with Li Weidong, there will be nothing to do with the machinery factory."

"It's all to blame on our factory director Zhou. People had already come to the door to talk to him about cooperation, but he refused. ”

"I see, this factory director Zhou did not take the interests of our workers into account."

"Yes, when Director Liu was in our factory, we were able to pay benefits every month. And the monthly benefits of the factory leaders are the same as those of the workers.

Now that Director Zhou has become the leader of the factory, those leaders have received four or five times the benefits of ours.

I once asked Director Zhou for an explanation, but Director Zhou told me that those factory leaders worked hard every day for the development of our factory, and they worked much harder than our workers, so they received higher benefits. Now it looks like they're actually fooling us. ”

"No, no, I have to ask the factory director for an explanation today."

The more the workers discussed, the more intense it became, and soon some of them had the audacity to raise their hands and shout.

Liang Ladi didn't expect things to develop to such a point.

He knew that his master, Cao Shan, did not want to see the workers make trouble.

But now, even if he stepped forward to dissuade him, he couldn't stop it.

Liang Ladi could only look at her master Cao Shan with a pleading gaze.

Cao Shan looked at the excited workers and let out a long sigh.

It stands to reason that he, as a level 8 worker and a master in the factory, should stand on the side of the workers at this time and discuss an explanation with the factory leaders.

But since then, there will definitely be chaos in the factory, which he does not want to see.

There was no way, Cao Shan could only step forward and stop the workers who were about to walk to the factory office.
