Chapter 440: Meritocracy
"Weidong, we must not use this kind of ungrateful bastard!" Song Yu said angrily.
"What then? We couldn't find the right person and so far he was the best fit. Wang Weidong said helplessly.
"The organization spent money to send him to Germany to study, but as a result, this bastard stayed in Germany and didn't go back. How can we use such people? Song Yu said.
Cao Kewen graduated from Qingbei University and majored in semiconductors, and it was because of his outstanding ability that he was sent to Germany to study organizationally. No way, we can't find anyone else without him. Wang Weidong explained.
Now the two of them are waiting in a hotel in Berlin for a visit from a man named Cao Kewen.
Cao Kewen was admitted to Qingbei University in 77, and after graduating from college, he was assigned to work in a national semiconductor research institute, and was sent to the Technical University of Munich to study abroad two years later due to his outstanding ability. As a result, Cao Kewen stayed in Germany after obtaining a master's degree and did not return to China, and now his mixed-race children are all five years old.
"Isn't that what you told me on the phone? To learn from Cao Cao's meritocracy, first put aside moral character. Wang Weidong continued.
Song Yu was speechless for a while, but he still muttered two sentences in his mouth.
Just then, two men heard a knock on the door.
Wang Weidong walked over and opened the door, and a man of nearly 40 years old wearing glasses stood at the door of the room.
"Are you Mr. Cao Kewen? Please come in. Wang Weidong said.
Cao Kewen walked into the room and smiled at Wang Weidong and Song Yu, who was sitting there motionless, nodding and smiling.
"Sit down, Mr. Cao, you're welcome." Wang Weidong said.
He put a cup of tea in front of Cao Kewen and continued: "Mr. Cao, we have a general understanding of your experience, but you still want to ask you to explain it in detail when you come here today. ”
Cao Kewen nodded and said: "I was admitted to Qingbei University in 77, and I was the first student in our county to be admitted to Qingbei University, and the whole county was a sensation at that time!" Five years later, I graduated from Qingbei University and entered the Semiconductor Research Institute, and two years later, my unit sent me to study at the Technical University of Munich. After my master's degree, I stayed here and am now working in the research and development of medical devices at Siemens. ”
"Mr. Cao has not returned to his hometown after going to Germany for so many years?" Song Yu asked angrily.
The subtext of his sentence is that you, an ungrateful fellow, still have the face to return home?
Cao Kewen also heard the unkindness in Song Yu's words, and he replied with a somewhat embarrassed smile: "I went back the year before last, built a house for my parents, and brought the child back for the two old people to see." They were very traditional people, and at first they were against me marrying a foreign woman as a daughter-in-law, but when they saw their grandson, their attitude changed a bit. In recent years, the country has indeed changed a lot. ”
"Mr. Cao, we at Sunningdale have acquired an inverter factory in Germany, but the semiconductor factory attached to this factory will remain in Germany to continue production. Now there are 500 workers and engineers in the factory, we would like to ask you to manage this factory, what do you think? Wang Weidong asked.
"Of course I would, because when I stayed in Germany, I honestly thought it was a good place to live, a well-paid job, and very laid-back. But there is also a disadvantage to staying in Germany, that is, there is an invisible ceiling above the head, and it is difficult for people like me to get a chance to rise. Cao Kewen replied.
"Yes, if an outstanding talent like you returns to China after graduating with a master's degree, he is now at least a senior engineer and a backbone technical researcher in the unit, and he is likely to have taken a leadership position." Song Yu said.
Wang Weidong was a little dissatisfied with Song Yu's words, he glanced at Song Yu and continued: "This semiconductor factory mainly produces semiconductor components such as support capacitors and IGBTs. These two electronic components are now used to make inverters. However, support capacitors and ICBTs are widely used in production, and the idea is to expand the production of these two types of semiconductor components in the future, not just for the inverters used. ”
"I understand." Cao Kewen nodded and said.
"In the future, we may send some workers to this semiconductor factory in Germany for training, and I hope you will do this job well. There is also our company located in Guangdong Province, now there are many manufacturers of induction cookers in Guangdong Province, and the use of IGBT on induction cookers is also very large. Wang Weidong said.
"The IGBTs used in induction cooktops are not complicated, and it is not difficult to develop such a product." Cao Kewen said.
"Also, I know that the use of photovoltaic equipment is now being promoted in Germany, and the inverter is an important component of photovoltaic equipment, and I would like you to start researching IGBTs on the inverters used in photovoltaic equipment now. We feel that this kind of IGBT has a great future in the future. Wang Weidong said.
Hearing Wang Weidong say this, Cao Kewen said with a difficult look on his face: "I also know that there are only a few companies with strong technical strength in Germany that can produce this kind of inverter, and if we want to study this kind of product, we need to recruit a lot of technical talents, and it will take a long time." ”
Wang Weidong said: "Of course, we also know the difficulty you said, and we are willing to invest a lot of money in this area, and we have the patience to wait!" ”
"Since that's the case, I'll write my resignation report when I go back to Siemens, and then I can come back to work." Cao Kewen said.
After Cao Kewen left, Wang Weidong said to Song Yu: "No way, maybe in ten or twenty years in Germany, we will find a lot of people like Cao Kewen in Germany, but now we really can't find other suitable ones." ”
Song Yu nodded and said, "Yes, there are too few people like us who know that they are worried about the country and the people all day long!" ”
"Xiaoyu, you immediately go back with the drawings for the construction of this brewery, and the brewery that opens the market will soon be built as it is." Wang Weidong said.
"Okay, I'll go back right away. This time we're going to show off our talents! Song Yu said proudly.
After the inverter plant's production equipment was dismantled and sent to Hamburg, more than 200 workers entered the brewery to dismantle it. The machines can be disassembled and assembled within a month.
Wang Weidong often calls Fushan these days to ask Ou Xiaojun and Ou Xiaoyang about the progress of the construction of the inverter plant under construction.
The advantage of sea freight is that the freight is low, but the disadvantage is that it will take a long time, and the time when the equipment arrives at Yantian from the port of Hamburg is likely to be a month later.
Wang Weidong hopes to seize the time to put into production as soon as possible the batch of inverters installed by Goncharova in the United States for the railway train carriages in the United States.
"Miss Goncharova, the sales of inverters in the United States depend entirely on you. I've already asked, and I'll give you a Pithulas plane as a gift this time next year. Wang Weidong said to Goncharova.
