Chapter 218: The Drama of Forced Conception (If you have subscribed, please read the previous chapter. The previous chapter has been replaced.)
Qin Tao doesn't know much about the aviation sector. After all, he builds warships. Even if he does, the most he knows is carrier-based aircraft. However, the products of Factory 132 do not have such existence as carrier-based aircraft. Therefore, this is Qin Tao's Tao entered Factory 132 for the first time.
This is really the first time. When you enter here, you can immediately feel the difference from Factory 112.
This factory must be self-reliant. They are the first state-owned factory to enter the market and have been working hard for more than ten years. Therefore, the factory exudes a vigorous vitality from top to bottom. This kind of scene cannot be seen in the step-by-step factory 112.
In particular, although it is an aircraft factory, there are only a few aircraft production tasks, so they also carry out diversified operations. When Qin Tao walked into a factory, he immediately opened his eyes in surprise: "You guys?" They actually produce washing machines, especially those with a front-loading drum!”
“The Nuclear Power Plant 504 can produce ice cream, why can’t we produce washing machines?” Mr. Tu said with a smile: “We even produced motorcycles for a while!”
They produce too many civilian products. Even bus seats are made by them. They are not afraid of losing quality. Washing machines and motorcycles are high-end products in the 1980s and 1990s, and they are mass-producing them.
Qin Tao squatted there, looking at the simple-looking washing machine, and swallowed: "When our convoy returns, I will get a batch of washing machines from here!"
Hearing what Qin Tao said, Mr. Tu smiled: "Thank you, Mr. Qin, for taking care of our business. How many units do you want?"
“Two hundred units.” Qin Tao made a big move.
Mr. Tu was even more excited: "Two hundred units, so much? Do you want to sell them at a loss?"
Mr. Tu even expected Qin Tao to sell the washing machine to Lao Maozi and make a lot of money. However, Qin Tao shook his head: "Of course not. Seeing that this year is about to pass, it is time to issue the year-end bonus again. This year, I have to give prizes to some workers who have performed well, and this washing machine can be a prize."
A prize, a washing machine?
Mr. Tu was extremely envious: "Mr. Qin, you Mingzhou Shipbuilding Industry Group's remuneration is really good, it's hard to say! Usually the salary is high and the benefits are good, but during the Chinese New Year, you can even get a washing machine as a prize. It's really enviable. "
"Mr. Tu, do you want to come?" Qin Tao said, "If you go, I will open a private aircraft factory for you and make you the leader."
“Mr. Qin, you really dare to mention it. Let me tell you, you can come to my place for a visit, and I welcome purchases. But if you poach my people, I’m not done with you!”
This sentence was said with a smile. Although Mr. Tu met Qin Tao for the first time, he quickly became familiar with him and spoke very casually.
“Lao Tu, what kind of big customer is coming and he didn’t even notify us?” At this moment, another voice sounded.
"Mr. Qin, do you know this person?" Mr. Tu said to Qin Tao with a smile.
Qin Tao shook his head. He knew all the famous people. Qin Tao really didn't know this middle-aged man in his thirties, who was in the aviation field.
"Mr. Qin? Is that Mr. Qin from Mingzhou Shipbuilding Industry Group?" The middle-aged man was filled with surprise and quickly extended his hand: "Mr. Qin, let me introduce, I am the deputy chief engineer of the 420 Factory and a civilian product project manager. Department manager, my name is Lin Ming."
Lin Ming? After Qin Tao heard this person's self-introduction, he realized that this person also had a lot of background.
Lin Ming is a heavyweight in the domestic aviation engine industry. In 1978, after the college entrance examination was resumed, this young man from Fujian who had experienced dropping out of school, wandering, and going to the countryside took the college entrance examination. When he applied for a major, The first choice was for the Department of Diesel Engines (Internal Combustion Engine) of Zhejiang University, and the second choice was for the Department of Aeronautical Engines of Nanjing Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics.
He knew that China was lagging behind in engines, and he also determined to become an expert in this field.
After graduation, Lin Ming came to the Land of Abundance and joined Factory 420, which specializes in the production of aero-engines. He was diligent and capable, so it took him ten years to climb from an ordinary technician to his current position.
After all, Lin Ming is still too young now. By the time Qin Tao meets him, it will already be the 21st century, so he really doesn’t recognize him now.
“Mr. Lin, you are really young and promising.”
"Why? I have been working for ten years and now I am a vice president. You have been working for two years and you have become the CEO of the group." Lin Ming said: "Especially if you take the line of Lao Maozi, The profits are really eye-catching! A batch of civilian products produced in our factory were also sold to Lao Maozi through 611. I heard that the profit was not bad. Now that we have met, can we get rid of 611? Let’s come directly Ah. Our Shuangyan brand washing machine and refrigerator are also very good."
Qin Tao smiled: "I don't have any objection, but I'm afraid Mr. Song will come to scold you on his bicycle."
Everyone laughed and the atmosphere was friendly.
Lin Ming continued: "Mr. Qin, I heard that you got back a batch of gas turbine information and handed it over to relevant domestic departments for research. We didn't know it at the time. It would be great if you handed it over to us. After all, our engine The factory still has a few brushes. In the past few years, we have been jointly developing gas turbines with GE in the United States. We are standing on the shoulders of giants."
Qin Tao nodded: "Yes, we didn't know each other at the beginning. If we did, we would definitely give you that batch of information. However, your aero-engine factory is competing for information with relevant departments of the shipbuilding industry. Aren't you afraid of people gossiping?"
“Whatever we are afraid of, it’s all competition. If we have enough funding support, we can also develop advanced engines ourselves, which is no worse than Liming Factory.”
The Liming Factory located in the north, first-come-first-served, has obtained the model development of many projects, but what are the results of the development? Hahaha.
Later on, a Kunlun engine was built and installed on the J-8. When it was in the army, it did not dare to fly at all.
Speaking of this, Lin Ming's face clearly showed regret.
“Mr. Qin, how about we use the existing turbojet-7 on hand and convert it into a gas turbine?” Another idea came to Lin Ming’s mind.
Their 420 factory produces turbojet-7 engines, but in the current situation, the J-7 can no longer sell many, and the supporting turbojet-7 can't sell many either. They must find new ways.
“Modify the gas turbine?” Qin Tao nodded: “Of course, but you have to ensure the lifespan, which must be extended to at least 100,000 hours.”
One type of gas turbine is developed from scratch and is specially prepared for ships. The other type is developed from aircraft engines. The latter is more common.
In fact, many domestic aviation engines have been tried to convert gas turbines into gas turbines, but all of them failed without exception.
There are many reasons, among which life span is a big issue.
The aero engines used in China were inherited from Lao Maozi. Although the thrust is large enough, its lifespan is very short, only one or two hundred hours. If it is used on a warship, it will need to be overhauled before it goes very far.
After Qin Tao said this, he thought the person in front of him would be a little worried, but unexpectedly, the other person nodded: "Well, we are confident! We have extended the life of the Turbojet-7 to a thousand hours. It also has this capability when used in gas turbines.”
“A thousand hours?” Now it was Qin Tao’s turn to be surprised.
"Yes, ten years ago, when we exported the J-7, customers demanded that the life of the engine must be extended. In order to sell the aircraft, we had to find ways to extend the life of the engine." Mr. Tu stood aside. said.
At this moment, Qin Tao understood.
When the J-7 was originally used by the domestic air force, it clung to the same old Soviet ways, and the military could not say anything. However, once it was exported, customers would not tolerate these defects. After all, the customers had operated Western fighters. own set of ideas.
The engine life is too short, no, the life must be extended! Unexpectedly, the wing cannot be equipped with auxiliary fuel tanks. No, the auxiliary fuel tanks must be mounted to meet the range requirements. In this way, the J-7, which followed the road of market economy, made many improvements. During the continuous improvements, the concept of Super-7 gradually emerged.
Now, when you give them a request, they don’t bargain, they find a way to make it happen.
"Mr. Qin, if we meet these requirements, can you use it?" Lin Ming asked, this was what he cared about most.
“As long as the lifespan is long enough and the quality is good, there is a market for this kind of small gas turbine. For example, if we build hovercrafts in the future, we will use engines of this level,” Qin Tao said.
There are still many equipment vacancies in the domestic navy, and hovercraft is one of them. If you want to land on the beach, hovercraft is a good transportation tool. This thing requires at least three gas turbines, which are used to inflate the air cushion and for cruising.
However, after thinking about it, Qin Tao continued: "Actually, if domestic aircraft engines are to be used to convert gas turbines, Sibei should be the best choice."
If we want to say that the only mature and advanced engine currently available in China, it should be Spey. This was imported from the UK in order to improve the level of its aero-engine industry. It has finished products and technology. Although this product is only It is a second-generation turbofan engine, but for China, the technical level is still not low.
Unfortunately, this engine is weak at high altitudes and cannot be used by fighter jets. Therefore, after some domestic discussions, the Spey engine was used on the JH-7, also known as the Flying Leopard. It is precisely because of this engine that the aircraft The Leopard has become the first domestic fighter aircraft that can take off from Hainan, cruise the Nansha Islands, and then fly back. Its long range is unmatched by other aircraft.
"Yes, Sibei is the best choice. However, this project did not fall into our 420 factory. If it had been in our hands, it would have been localized long ago. It is not like their factory. Until now, the localization rate has not been To 70%." Lin Ming said.
Qin Tao nodded, yes, there are too many regrets in the country, with little investment and slow progress, and in the end we are left with nothing but cold meals.
In fact, the conversion of Spey to gas turbines is completely mature and reliable. The British S*M1 gas turbine was improved using Spey. The island country introduced this technology and has been using S*M1C gas turbines.
What about our own side?
If you have time, go and take a look. Anyway, the Flying Leopard fighter-bomber is also used by the navy. I have this opportunity. If I can promote it...
Qin Tao still has some difficulty in choosing. The Sibe modified gas turbine is small in size and fuel-efficient, but its power is only 20 megawatts. The UGT25000 introduced in cooperation with Lao Maozi starts with 25 megawatts. This kind of engine, Four units are enough to drive a 10,000-ton engine, but Sibei's power is still slightly smaller.
Speaking of Fei Leopard fighter-bombers, Qin Tao felt a little emotional. The Navy needed long-range fighter-bombers, and so did the Air Force. However, the Air Force requested a two-seater side by side. After discovering that due to technical problems, the Fei Leopard was designed as a tandem two-seater. , the Air Force immediately gave up: Our Air Force doesn’t want it anymore!
The Navy relied on meager funds to mature the Flying Leopards, and then the Air Force came to take advantage of them again. These Flying Leopards are so delicious, the Air Force also wants to purchase a batch!
With emotion, Qin Tao finished visiting Factory 132. After having dinner in the factory, he arranged the transportation of the washing machine. Qin Tao took the passenger plane that night and flew directly from the Land of Abundance to Huating.
When Qin Tao came here, he wanted to experience it and also get familiar with the transportation company. There was no need to go back and he could just take a plane.
I slept on the plane and it was almost dawn when I got off.
Now that he has arrived in Huating, Qin Tao is not in a hurry to go back immediately. After all, they have their factory here, and Zhao Ling has already left Mingzhou and came to Huating Aerospace Technology Research Institute, so Qin Tao plans to go back here Stay for a few days.
When I got off the taxi, it was already past eight o'clock. Qin Tao stomped to the water pump factory. The sign outside had been changed. The sign of Mingzhou Shipbuilding Industry Group Water Jet Propulsion Factory hung there, with large golden characters shining brightly in the early morning sun.
Huh? No one is checking the door?
Qin Tao is a little curious. Anyone can enter the factory. What if he steals something? Qin Tao is already a little dissatisfied. The management of this factory is not good. If necessary, he will have to make a major change!
Qin Tao's face became serious, but when he walked to the office building, he found a bunch of people surrounding him.
Hmph, it’s already past time to go to work. If these people don’t go to the workshop to work, what are they doing here? The order in this factory is too chaotic, right?
Ci does not control the army, Zhang Guangrong is too weak.
“Director Zhang, we are also a subordinate unit of Mingzhou Shipbuilding Industry Group. We are said to be born from the same mother. Isn’t the difference in treatment too big?” A worker said.
"Yes, that's right, their workers in Mingzhou can get a salary of five to six hundred a month, why should we get one or two hundred? We are Huating City, a municipality directly under the Central Government, which is much larger than their Mingzhou City. We are here In big cities, the cost of living is also high, so what can you do with this little money?”
“I heard that they in Mingzhou will also give out year-end bonuses during the New Year. Those who get more can get several thousand or even tens of thousands. The New Year is coming soon, how much does our factory plan to give out?”
Under the siege of a crowd, Zhang Guangrong was sweating profusely. He said to the people below: "Dear workers, although we are subordinate to a group, each factory within the group is responsible for its own profits and losses. Although we We have received capital injection from the group, but the current profits are still not much. Please persevere. In the future, our factory will make more profits and the welfare benefits will definitely increase."
"Hmph, you said it nicely. Can you wait? Can everyone wait? Director Zhang, let's solve the housing problem of our factory's employees first! Our per capita housing area is only three or four square meters. Over at the group, the average It’s thirty to forty square meters in height!”
“Yes, that’s right, they are all born from the same mother, why are their treatment so different!”
“Director Zhang, I think you are a coward. Why don’t you dare to fight with the group? Why don’t you dare to quarrel with Mr. Qin?”
“Yes, that’s right, you don’t dare to fight for benefits for our factory!”
Qin Tao had a sneer on his face. He really didn't expect that Zhang Guangrong would be so hard-working that he would be forced into the palace by his own employees. Although he is the general director in name, he cannot stay here forever. In fact, the original Zhang Guangrong is still in charge of the work.
This kind of thing will happen when enterprises are restructuring.
A certain state-owned or collective enterprise is not operating well and is taken over by a private enterprise. After taking over, all the management must be changed. Why is this? It's chilling.
In fact, this is necessary. Only by replacing all the management can we ensure that the will of the top management of private enterprises can be conveyed and orders can be implemented to the letter. Otherwise, we will have long been accustomed to fishing. The enterprise is acting in a lax and unorganized manner. The enterprise is still the same as before, in a state of disunity.
It was because I was not determined enough at the beginning, and I did not have enough talents on hand!
“If you don’t want to work in the factory, just get out!” Qin Tao shouted.
This voice happened to be in the gap between the workers shouting, and the voice was loud, so it was immediately heard by everyone. They turned their heads in surprise and looked at an unknown person.
“Where are you from?”
“What are you talking about? Red guy!”
“Do you want to be beaten?” Someone has already rolled up his sleeves.
Zhang Guangrong heard the voice and thought of something, with a strange expression on his face. However, he was blocked by the crowd and could not see anything, so he jumped up and looked outside the crowd, once, twice, three times. Finally he saw it clearly and his expression changed drastically.
"Mr. Qin, Mr. Qin, what brought you here?" Zhang Guangrong quickly pushed aside the crowd and ran towards Qin Tao. The sweat on his forehead was already popping out.
He could still handle being besieged by these people. Anyway, this kind of thing didn't happen once. After the big guys vented their anger, they just did whatever they had to do.
But now, Mr. Qin actually saw it, and now the trouble is big. Why are these **** little **** so careless?
“It’s gone, let’s go, it’s time to get to work!” Behind Zhang Guangrong, Wang Jinbao also ran out and shouted to the troubled workers.
“There’s no need to leave. Since you’re here and I’ve seen you, let’s open the skylight and speak out.” Qin Tao stood there with a loud voice and his eyes swept over each speaker.
"I heard what you just said. You were just complaining. Why are you treated so differently when you are both born from the same mother?" Qin Tao said, "Let me tell you now, yes, you are raised by your stepmother! At the beginning, You almost died in infancy. I spent one yuan to take you here. If it weren’t for me, you would all be children without a mother. You should have been laid off long ago! How can you call me here?"
The workers stopped talking.
That's right, in the past, their factory was not operating well and almost went bankrupt. If Mingzhou Shipbuilding Industry Group had not taken over, they would have been laid off long ago and their wages would have been lost. How could they make trouble here?
"You are complaining about unfairness. Let me tell you that there is no such thing as fairness in a market economy. Do you still think it is the era of big pot rice? It has long passed! Those who are capable can rely on their ability to develop and grow, and employees can eat meat. Those who are not capable can eat meat. , the factory went bankrupt and closed down, and the employees went to eat shit!”
Qin Tao was very angry and his words were very unpleasant, but no one present dared to refute him.
Although they were very impressive when they were making trouble, why didn't they dare to quarrel with Mr. Qin? Now, who dares?
Hmph, everyone shrinks when working, and rushes to get benefits. Do you really think you are in a state-owned enterprise?
"Today's situation is just because we can have a full stomach, so we started to make trouble." Qin Tao said: "Director Zhang has direct leadership responsibility for this matter. Now I am announcing that Director Zhang will be removed as director. Position, become workshop director, the original workshop director, become deputy director!"
Everyone was silent.
The factory director was directly promoted to the workshop director, but what about the workers like them? Will he be fired?
“Half of the workers in the factory will be transferred to different positions!” Sure enough, Qin Tao had already raised his machete towards them.
Hearing this, the worker who had just been the most vigorous in trying to force the woman to uterus shouted: "Why?"
"Just because I am the CEO of the group, I now declare that you will be fired for contradicting the CEO of the group! You can go to the Human Resources Department to go through the formalities now!"
That man was dumbfounded. Misfortunes come from his mouth. With just one word, his work was ruined. He felt regretful in his heart.
This is a shot at the first bird, why can't I understand the situation? Do you still think that Mr. Qin is as easy to bully as Director Zhang? But now, he has hit the target, has been killed to scare the monkeys, and he has no way out.
"Huh, it's not interesting to work under such a leader who doesn't respect the workers. If you don't keep me here, I will keep you. But, everyone else, you have heard that half of the people in the factory are going to be fired. Among you, Only half of them can stay. Now, shouldn’t you say something? Such a **** leader will torture you in every possible way in the future!”
“Xiao Zhang, what are you talking about? Don’t slander our most respected Mr. Qin!”
“That’s right, if you scold us, Mr. Qin, you are slapping us in the face. If you curse again, be careful and we will beat you up!”
Hmm, are you so quick to flatter Mr. Qin? Looking at these people who acted according to the prevailing situation, the worker named Xiao Zhang also knew that he would definitely not be able to encourage them. He let out a sigh of relief and left angrily.
“Mr. Qin, don’t worry, we are here.” Before he could say anything about the flattery, he was interrupted by Qin Tao: “What time is it now?”
Everyone suddenly realized.
“If I see anyone else idle within one minute, I will be fired immediately!”
With a crash, everyone rushed back to the workshop and returned to their posts. They no longer dared to mention that the benefits should be in line with those of other factories in the group.
Zhang Guangrong also wanted to leave. After all, he had become the workshop director, but Qin Tao stopped him: "Lao Zhang, Lao Wang, you stay, and all the middle-level cadres in the factory go to the conference room!"
PS: The order of the two chapters was wrong, so they were replaced with each other. Please don't scold me. The content is not repeated. Looking back at the previous chapter, it is already brand new content.
