Chapter 473: In the 21st Century, I'm Here (10)
Mao Li knew that it was best not to ask too much about Mr. Mei's affairs. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Alas, forget it, you still have to manage the company's accounts on the surface, just these things, you can't figure it out. Mao Li buried her head in the ledger again.
Bai Suzhen and Mr. Mei came to the warehouse next to the wharf together, on the sea outside the warehouse, there was an ocean-going freighter parked under the company, Mr. Mei raised the mobile phone in his hand, flashed the light a few times, and after a while, a small boat was lowered from the freighter and sailed towards the wharf.
There was a bunch of boxes on the dinghy, and Mr. Mei personally delivered the boxes one by one to the most central room of the warehouse - the room where the trash cans were placed.
Mr. Mei opened one of the boxes, and inside, there was a missile neatly placed, a single shoulder-mounted anti-aircraft missile.
This missile is domestic, because this is the only individual missile that Bai Suzhen can find that can match the caliber of the trash can and can be transmitted to the Da Li Dynasty.
However, the individual missiles of the Celestial Empire are of high quality and low price, and the operation interface is foolish, and even those black uncles who ride camels and wrap their heads in the desert can easily get started, not to mention the young soldiers in Houlong Village Yixue.
It's just that this domestic missile came to Bai Suzhen's warehouse after a big circle, although Bai Suzhen used spells to secretly control some people, but the purchase of arms in the country is really too eye-catching, especially the single soldier missile, which is a big killer, is targeted by the relevant departments every minute and second, and those officials hidden behind Mr. Mei can't protect themselves.
Therefore, Bai Suzhen had to spend a lot of money and time to go around in a big circle, through her company in Africa, to get arms, including this missile, from some war-torn areas, and through her cargo ships, all the way to the warehouse.
Bai Suzhen patted the box with satisfaction and said to Mr. Mei: "Good job, tell the relationship in Africa, as long as the goods are good, continue to eat for me." "--With these weapons, Guo Dalu must have some capital to fight against cultivators, right?
However, Bai Suzhen knew that it was not enough to send arms to the Great Li Dynasty, and it was better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish, and she and Guo Dalu both knew that these arms were only for emergency use, and the most important thing was to help Guo Dalu build a complete set of industrial systems, but this matter was too difficult and difficult.
But fortunately, Bai Suzhen is in the Celestial Empire, which has the most complete industrial system in the world, as well as tens of millions of engineers, in their eyes, there is no such thing as "impossible", as long as you give enough money, you can play this kind of thing in the sea.
When Bai Suzhen was loading individual missiles and C4 explosives into the garbage can, in a factory far away, the conference room was brightly lit, and the general manager was rolling up his sleeves and shouting: "Old and young masters, our factory has finally received another big business! And it is also an overseas business! After this transaction is done, it can be regarded as saving our company!"
The engineers below nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, now the whole country is pressing production capacity, how many steelmaking plants have stopped, closed down, and even been demolished, our factory specializing in steelmaking equipment can't survive, I didn't expect the boss to be able to pull such a big business." ”
The chief engineer took the materials from the general manager's hand, glanced at them, and said in surprise: "This small African country is also going to build a steel-making plant? I have heard that there is still a tribal system, and the most valuable property of the local people is the family's cattle.
In this world, the crude steel output of the Celestial Empire is the largest in the world, and even the steel mills in Europe, the United States and Japan cannot survive under the low-price competition of crude steel in the Celestial Empire, let alone the steelmaking mills of small African countries.
Regardless of the fact that Africa's human capital is cheap, but the infrastructure is too bad, and all kinds of additional expenses are added, the unit price of this crude steel is more expensive than the products transported from the Celestial Empire across the ocean to the earth. Basically, it can be asserted that the day a steel mill in a small African country is built is the day it goes out of business.
The general manager knocked on the table: "Let's not care whether other people's steel can be sold, let's just sell steelmaking equipment, after the steel mill is completed, whether it loses or makes money, it has nothing to do with us." Having said that, our country is now vigorously helping African countries to develop, and it is possible that when the steel mills are built, there will suddenly be a large-scale demand for steel in the local area. Well, without further ado, this customer has put forward some specific requirements for the construction of the steel mill - well, some of the requirements are more special and rare, and you can see if you can meet the customer. ”
Although the general manager pointed out that the requirements of African customers were "special and rare", the engineers had taken a preventive shot in their hearts, thinking that there must be all kinds of inconveniences in building a steel mill in a place like Africa with backward infrastructure, but when they saw the requirements on the project book, they were still stunned by the unbelievable requirements above.
There was a shout in the conference room: "What's the matter, this small African country doesn't even have a power plant, and can only provide some emergency high-efficiency batteries for temporary power supply - Damn, this so-called high-efficiency battery, shouldn't it be a power bank?!"
--In fact, it is not a power bank, but a lead-acid battery pack containing the cloud robbery and thunder, and a demon cloud Xiaobai that generates its own electricity.
"Hey, this small African country actually has a crude steel workshop with an annual output of 10,000 tons, as well as some lathes, which may provide some infrastructure materials. Hahaha, 10,000 tons a year - this won't be a small blast furnace for big steel, right?"
-- If Li Dayan heard that someone compared his beloved blast furnace workshop to a small blast furnace tossed by peasants in the early days of the founding of the Celestial Dynasty, he would be so angry that he would not be able to jump to his feet. The steel smelted in the blast furnace workshop in Houlong Village can be made into armor blades, and the big steel-making and small blast furnace cut down the surrounding mountains, and the smelted earth steel can't even make kitchen knives.
"Well, there is finally a cement factory and a brick kiln, and we don't have to travel thousands of miles to transport cement and bricks, which is good news. ”
--Zhao Kang must be very satisfied if he hears this, this cement kiln and brick kiln have taken a lot of effort into him. Nowadays, brick and concrete houses have become a new fashion in the Great Li Dynasty, and any high-ranking official or dignitary who does not build a five- or six-storey cement building at home, and invite relatives and friends to climb high and look far away, are embarrassed to meet people. Zhao Kang was so busy building cement kilns and red brick kilns everywhere.
"Hey, look at this requirement, all equipment must be installed by local employees in the country, we can provide technical support through manuals, videos, etc., but we are not allowed to enter the country. Hey, what's the matter, is this a stealing master? Do they really think they'll learn how to install a modern steel mill by watching the video? Those natives who can only raise cattle don't even know how to tighten the screws, right?"
--The students of Houlong Village Yixue expressed their dissatisfaction, no matter what, the screws will still be screwed.
All kinds of weird, incredible, unheard of requirements in the project book have become a collection of jokes, and everyone is amused.
At this moment, suddenly a heavy slap sounded in the conference room, and everyone looked at the chief engineer who slapped him on the table, only to see that the chief engineer's face was flushed, and his forehead was blue: "What the hell is this fame?! What kind of thing is this to buy steel-making equipment? This is clearly making fun of us! Look at this last one -- all equipment must not be larger than 1530*1370*1080mm! What is this?!Is this African country a Lilliputia? The smallest part of our steelmaking equipment is several times larger than this one!"
--Bai Suzhen said, I don't carry this pot, who made the 10-clean trash can so big?
Everyone hurriedly turned to the last page of the project book, and sure enough, they saw the requirements marked in bold red, and this requirement is also marked below that this requirement has a veto status, that is, if this requirement cannot be met, no matter how good the other terms are, it is useless.
If there was a lot of discussion in the conference room when I saw this wonderful project book just now, now it is strangely quiet, everyone is staring at the general manager, and everyone turns to a thought - either the owner of this project is crazy, or the general manager of his own family is crazy. Otherwise, no one in their right mind would have brought such a project into the conference room for serious discussion - this thing should be thrown in the trash right away!
The general manager lit a cigarette and took a deep breath, and then said to everyone, including the chief engineer: "I know what everyone is thinking - when I just got this project book, I also wanted to throw it directly in the trash, but there is one thing that changed my mind." ”
Saying that, the general manager handed a document to the chief engineer, and the chief engineer saw that it was a document with a deposit of 10 million yuan, which indicated that as long as the factory could put forward a reasonable plan to solve the requirements of the project book, the 10 million yuan that had been filed in the notary department could be immediately hit to the account of the factory.
10 million yuan, for the construction of a 100,000-ton output of steel mills, is not much, but it is enough to show the sincerity of the other party, whether the person who proposed this project is a madman or not, the 10 million is real money.
The documents of the guarantee were passed in the hands of everyone, and a female engineer coughed: "Although the requirements in the project book seem strange and absurd, they are not unachievable. For example, equipment parts, we originally considered the construction of large-scale and super-large steel-making plants, but if we think differently, as we did a few decades ago, we build a number of small blast furnaces? Each small blast furnace is not large, but if it is assembled, it can produce a large amount of high-quality steel. ”
Someone immediately retorted: ", then the cost of steelmaking will go to the sky, who will make steels like this?"
The female engineer chuckled and said: "In the whole project book, there is no mention of the construction cost at all, and the owners don't care, so why should we take it into account? Moreover, the local geography and traffic conditions do not allow too large size things to pass, so it is understandable that the strange and absurd requirements of this project book. ”
The four words of the female engineer "one poor and two white" suddenly opened up everyone's thinking, and some people laughed and said: "Hey, listen to you say this, this small African country is really similar to the early days of our liberation, in this way, our steel-making equipment can not be too advanced, too advanced, once it is broken, it is not easy to repair, just like in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, we have to produce some stupid and coarse, but resistant equipment, in the harsh production environment, in the hands of workers who do not have much basic culture and technical level, how to toss will not be bad!"
"That's right, that's right, in this way, those environmental protection equipment don't need to be installed, it is estimated that people don't care about those exhaust gases and waste smokes, and they don't want any automation equipment, all manual operations!"
Everyone is engaged in industrial design and production for many years, after opening the window paper, it was soon found that these originally seemed ridiculous and ridiculous requirements, not that they could not be met, but that it took more work, more materials, in the final analysis, it is more money, however, small African countries are willing to spend money, you can't accept it.
The general manager stared eagerly at the chief engineer, looking at him half-squinting, holding his arms, a half-asleep look, knowing that his old partner had a new idea.
Sure enough, the chief engineer patted the table and said slowly: "I have a way to complete the project in this African country, that is, external support and self-reliance!"
The chief engineer stood up: "Doesn't the other party have a small blast furnace workshop? We can guide them to produce some stupid, clumsy, and inconvenient parts locally through remote technical guidance or video training, while we specialize in high-tech core components." Moreover, we did not start with equipment that produced 100,000 tons of steel, but 10,000 tons of steel, so that the technical difficulties faced by small African countries were much less and it was easier to get started. After they build a 10,000-ton steel factory, and then through our technical guidance, the new equipment with more difficult, more advanced technology and more complex production process will be re-produced, so that step by step to climb up, and finally realize the construction of a 100,000-ton factory in the local area, and we only need to provide technical support!"
The eyes of all the people in the conference room were shining, and the general manager was also excited, and he threw away half of the cigarette in his hand: "Okay, this is a road of self-reliance that our country has taken! In the past, we were able to break out of this road under the blockade of the West, and the black brothers of Africa will definitely be able to go more smoothly with our help!" We have overtaken in 30 years, and have walked the road of developed countries for 200 years, and I think that with our help, this small African country will be able to achieve the goal of building its own 100,000-ton crude steel mill in ten years, no, or even five years!"
Building a 100,000-ton steel mill in five years is not economical, but it is the most suitable requirement for the quirky project of this small, impoverished African country.
The chief engineer led everyone to fight at night, and quickly made a thick plan, which fully met the requirements of the project book. When this project book changed hands through several leather bag companies, and finally came to Bai Suzhen, she slapped the table - this is the factory!
Although in the plan, the funds required are several times that of the original, but the construction idea is completely in line with Bai Suzhen's requirements - Guo Dalu is in the Great Li Dynasty, and he needs to establish his own industrial system with his bare hands through such a way of half-work and half-study. Otherwise, relying on the comprador method of buying and buying alone, it will not be able to truly make the Great Li Dynasty realize the four modernizations.
The next day, the 10 million deposit was paid to the account of the steelmaking equipment manufacturer, and the follow-up funds will also be in place in batches, and Bai Suzhen has only one request through the forged owners of small African countries, that is, every piece of equipment produced must be immediately transported to the East China Sea along with technical data and video files--through a shipping company there, and transported to Africa.
This is also a ridiculous request, from the perspective of economic cost, of course, after the completion of the production of all the equipment, and then package and ship the most money-saving, but the factory has been surprised by the various strange requirements of the owners of this small African country, just as the other party did this, in order to escape the embargo of the western developed countries - I rely on, this is not nuclear equipment, a bunch of crude steel production equipment, people ban you Mao, but, anyway, the freight is borne by the owner, we can do what we should do.
Bai Suzhen's move is also a last resort, the 10-clean trash can is opened once a day, and only one bucket of materials can be transmitted each time, and she has several warehouses full of materials to transmit, so she can only disassemble the equipment of the steel mill and transfer it like kraft candy.
Because in addition to the steel mill, Bai Suzhen also collected fertilizer plants, machine tool factories, chemical plants, and oil refineries in the country at the same time.
In the 21st century, Bai Suzhen had a headache about how to deliver massive supplies, and in the Great Li Dynasty, Guo Dalu was holding a single missile and laughing wildly: "Susu, Susu, you really have you! You actually got me all this thing! I really don't know how you got the arms, but you have to be careful, if you are sent to the courier and ask for tea, it will be bad." (To be continued.) )
