Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 299

After Duan Yun came to Daxing No. [-] Automobile Factory, he was directly assigned to the guest house in the factory.

The guest house of Daxing Automobile Factory has a very good environment. It is next to the factory kindergarten, surrounded by a row of poplar trees. At this time, the fallen leaves are flying, and it is a desolate and beautiful scene.

The room Duan Yun lives in is a standard suite with a very simple layout, a writing desk, a single bed next to it, a black and white TV set on the cabinet opposite the bed, a fan in the corner, and the heater is very hot , which was in stark contrast to the somewhat cold weather outside.

After Mr. Wang arranged Duan Yun, he chatted with Duan Yun for a few words, then turned and left.

At noon, Duan Yun was invited to the dining room of the guest house. After entering a private room, he saw the main leaders of the factory including Mr. Wang sitting around the dining table.

"Xiao Duan, let me introduce you. This is Li Xiu, the director of our factory..." After seeing Duan Yun enter the private room, Mr. Wang immediately stood up and introduced Duan Yun with a smile.

"Hello, Director Li!" Duan Yun immediately smiled and shook hands with Director Li.

The automobile factory paid great attention to Duan Yun's arrival this time. Basically, all the leaders of the factory committee attended the reception banquet, and the banquet was of high standard. The food was quite sumptuous. Yun even saw seafood such as sea cucumbers and squids, and the dishes were beautifully arranged, which clearly showed the chef's superb knife skills.

Such a high-standard banquet made Duan Yun a little bit tongue-tied. Judging from his previous dining experience in Fenglin Pavilion, such a table of banquets can't be bought without two or three hundred yuan!
You know, eating and drinking with public funds is still rare in this era.

Before the 80s, all staff members went to the countryside for meals. Except for the standard accommodation fee, which was reimbursed by the Revolutionary Committee with a letter of introduction, the meal problem was solved by themselves. Those who went to the ordinary people’s homes to eat had to pay the ordinary people.

Everyone does their best, and every staff member has no subsidy income other than salary. You are the head of the government, and you can’t find a place to reimburse you when you go out to eat. Who wants to take advantage of the government unless you want to live in a cowshed.

And after the 80s, there began to be travel subsidies, and gradually there was a bonus incentive system, and each unit also had independent finances, and there were small treasuries. At this time, some people gradually used their powers to issue invoices for reimbursement of food and drink.

Now Daxing Automobile Factory is really doing well, and being able to put on such a high-end banquet shows that this unit's "small treasury" should be very full.

In fact, what Duan Yun doesn’t know is that the factory leaders of the automobile factory usually don’t dare to eat and drink with such public funds, and entertaining guests from other factories is also a standard four dishes and one soup. After all, if they are reported by workers, they will lose their officials and go to jail. .

The only difference this time is that the German manufacturer also arranged for a native engineer to assist in the installation of the new equipment.

There are strict restrictions on the entertainment standards for domestic personnel, but for foreign friends, there is no upper limit on the entertainment expenses at all. Even if the entertainment expenses are seriously overrun, it only needs to be paid to these foreigners, and the relevant departments above will not There is no way to control it, and these factory leaders took advantage of such a loophole to raise the level of eating and drinking with public funds several levels at once.

In addition, the leaders of the automobile factory also learned some details about Duan Yun. They knew that he was now the youngest engineer and deputy section chief of the Red Star Gear Factory. His promotion speed was like a rocket. Yun is now the only qualified oral English interpreter in the Municipal Bureau, and he is a celebrity in the eyes of Director Rui, so this reception banquet is quite high-end, but it is mainly to please Duan Yun.

After Duan Yun introduced these factory leaders one by one, he sat down and started chatting with these factory leaders.

With Duan Yun's EQ and eloquence, it was relatively easy to deal with this kind of occasion, and soon the banquet was full of wine and wine, and the atmosphere became lively.

The leaders of the automobile factory wanted to establish a good relationship with Duan Yun, and Duan Yun actually also wanted to establish a good personal relationship with these factory leaders. After all, he might use these people in the future.

The banquet lasted until almost three o'clock.

When leaving the private room, Duan Yun walked out shoulder to shoulder with the drunk factory manager Li Xiu...

In the evening, Duan Yun did not go home. After he received the notice that he was coming to the automobile factory, he spent an afternoon to settle the workshop and family affairs. In addition, he also asked Cheng Qingyan to help him go to school to ask for leave. After all, Once the installation work starts, it will be very busy, with frequent overtime work and a long way home, so Duan Yun can only live in the guest house of the automobile factory during this period...

……

Two days later, the equipment installation started vigorously under the guidance of German engineers.

Duan Yun, as the general liaison with the German engineer, assisted the chief engineer of the automobile factory, Wang, to start the specific installation project.

According to the previous discussion with the leaders of the automobile factory, Duan Yun is not only responsible for being the translation liaison, but also assisting Chief Engineer Wang to deal with some factory problems.

Within the scope of his responsibility, he requires all the work to be completed in one batch, one batch to be accepted, and one batch to be qualified. All processes are recorded, and there are responsible persons.

Every morning, Duan Yun discusses the project arrangement with the German engineer. Every night, he personally checks the progress of the project for a day. He has an excellent memory, and he will not miss the smallest work arrangement. He checks the progress, checks the quality, supervises the rectification, and records it.The next morning, continue to discuss project arrangements with German engineers according to the progress.

Duan Yun had to be so serious, he knew the importance of this imported equipment installation,
Up and down the construction site, working overtime is commonplace, and there is no day when the management staff does not work overtime.

During the equipment installation, Duan Yun also got along very well with the two German engineers.

The engineer who came this time was named Bain, a fat old man in his 50s with a beard.

It is said that the Germans are rigid, stubborn, rigorous, precise, and conservative. Duan Yun was a little disapproving of this before, but this time from Benn, Duan Yun really saw this essence from this old German man.

Some habits and concepts take years or even decades to develop. Bain's thinking and way of working are obviously very different from those of Chinese people.

Contrary to the state of mind of most employees of state-owned enterprises, Bain regards work with a sense of mission, and his work attitude is definitely serious and dedicated.

During this period, there were a few small things that impressed Duan Yun deeply.

Domestic workers generally tighten the screws to the equipment, but Bain requires workers to use kilogram boards, strictly follow the installation standards, and each screw cannot exceed the range of [-]% of the torque value. The worker will be required to remove all the screws and reinstall them one by one under his supervision.

In addition, in the welding of equipment, Bain requires that the welding rod must be heated before use. During this period, a worker used the welding rod in the warehouse to weld the workpiece. After being discovered by Bain, he asked them to weld the whole machine. After smoothing with a grinder, re-weld with qualified welding rods, regardless of the tight schedule, and the quality requirements have even reached the level of paranoia!
At this moment, Duan Yun completely understood why the German auto production line equipment that has been used for decades is so well maintained...
