industrial overlord

Chapter 99
This endless telegram scared Lin Zhenhua out of his wits.His first guess was that the shed of Hanhua Industrial Company collapsed, and five or eight people must have died.The second guess is that things about the joint-stock system have changed again, and the Public Security Bureau is waiting in the factory to arrest him, the person who demolished the corner of socialism.

He subconsciously went to look for the mobile phone in his trouser pocket, and recalled Zhu Tiejun’s or someone’s mobile phone number at the same time. After thinking for a long time, he remembered that the mobile phone was still in the laboratory. Depressed, these days without mobile phones, How did everyone get here!
Fortunately, long-distance calls still existed at that time.Lin Zhenhua ran to the post office of Huaqing University, paid the deposit, and finally dialed the factory office. The person who answered the phone was the office director, Kong Haijiang.Over the past year, the relationship between Kong Haijiang and Lin Zhenhua has been very good.

"Xiao Lin? Are you back?" Kong Haijiang asked in surprise.

"Old Kong, I'm still in Beijing. What happened in the factory?" Lin Zhenhua asked anxiously.

Kong Haijiang was stunned for a moment: "No? Nothing happened? By the way, Master Wang from the container workshop beat his wife yesterday, which made the factory director go to work. Are you talking about this?"

I rely on!Lin Zhenhua was so angry that he almost vomited blood: "Old Kong, I received a telegram from the factory, urging me to go back immediately. What's going on?"

Kong Haijiang seemed to turn his head to ask someone on the other end of the phone, and then replied: "Oh, I just asked, it was sent to you by Director Zhu, asking you to come back immediately, there is an urgent task in the hall, Zhu The factory manager said, it must be decided by you and Lao Hu when you come back."

"Old Kong, please tell Director Zhu that I hate him!" Lin Zhenhua angrily dropped the phone, went to the counter to check out, and found that more than ten yuan had been dropped, which was considered a large sum of money at the time up.

With hate on his lips, Lin Zhenhua hurriedly tried to find a way to buy a ticket.The urgent task assigned by the Department of Light and Chemical Industry must be quite important.Before he came out, Lin Zhenhua asked Zhu Tiejun for leave. He had already said that he would spend a few days in Beijing. Zhu Tiejun was still laughing and asked him if he and Yang Xin had an early honeymoon.If there is nothing particularly urgent, Zhu Tiejun should not bother him.

Train tickets are always in short supply, but Lin Zhenhua is lucky.Early the next morning, he and Yang Xin rushed to Beijing Railway Station. After queuing for half a day, they actually bought two train tickets to Jiangnan Province the next day.In this way, the honeymoon trip plan of the young couple fell by the wayside. On the afternoon of the third day, the two of them returned to Hanhua factory full of travel and dust.

Lin Zhenhua asked Yang Xin to go home first, and he went directly to Zhu Tiejun's office.As soon as he entered the door, he was shocked again, only to see that the room was filled with smoke, like a fire alarm scene.He collected himself, only to find that four people were sitting in the smoke with serious faces. These four people were Zhu Tiejun, Hu Yang, Fan Shibin and Luo Qinsheng.Everyone had a cigarette in their hand, and there were cigarette butts all over the ground.

"What happened?" Lin Zhenhua asked in surprise.

Zhu Tiejun gestured to Fan Shibin, and Fan Shibin handed a drawing to Lin Zhenhua's hand for him to watch.

Lin Zhenhua took the blueprint and glanced at it roughly.This is a survey drawing, which shows a special-shaped shaft. There are several curved surfaces that look weird, not like those processed by ordinary machine tools.

"Which axis is this?" Lin Zhenhua asked.

Zhu Tiejun asked in a hoarse voice: "Xiao Lin, can you estimate how much such a shaft costs?"

Lin Zhenhua picked up the drawing and looked at it again. There were instructions on the material and heat treatment process on the drawing. Lin Zhenhua estimated the man-hours and other expenditures for machining, and then replied: "Such shafts do not seem to be domestically produced. These special-shaped surfaces require a five-axis linkage machine tool. Based on the price of imported parts, I estimate that it will cost about [-] US dollars."

Zhu Tiejun nodded: "The result of your estimate is about the same as that calculated by Lao Fan and Lao Luo. But, do you know how much people ask us for this axis now?"

"how much is it?"

"Thirty thousand dollars."

"[-] US dollars!" Lin Zhenhua said in a low voice, "Why don't they grab it! Which black-hearted guy made this price?"

"Fucking Japanese devils!" Zhu Tiejun slapped the table and said angrily, "They don't dare to rob now, but this is worse than robbing money!"

"Japanese?" Lin Zhenhua seemed to have heard something, and asked, "Director Zhu, what's going on?"

Zhu Tiejun sighed and told the whole story.

It turned out that the No. 21 Chemical Fertilizer Factory in Jiangnan Province had recently imported a complete set of large chemical fertilizer equipment from a Japanese chemical equipment manufacturer named Nihong Heavy Industries, including two [-]-calorie ice machines.During the installation, for some unknown reason, the main shaft of one of the ice machines was broken.

After investigation, the responsibility for the accident lies with the Chinese side, and the relevant responsible persons have also been punished.The Department of Light and Chemical Industry sent a request to Nihong Heavy Industry, asking them to provide another main shaft separately.

Nihong Heavy Industry quickly gave a reply: the spindle can be provided immediately, and the quotation is [-] US dollars.

When they first saw this quotation, the officials of the Department of Light and Chemical Industry almost thought it was a mistake in the telegram, because according to the price when the equipment was introduced, a complete 21 ice machine only cost more than [-] US dollars. There is a reason why the price of a spindle can be reported at [-] US dollars.

The Light Chemical Department also has engineers and technicians. They carefully studied the broken main shaft, made accurate judgments on the steel used and the heat treatment process, and came to a conclusion similar to Lin Zhenhua's, that the shaft's It cost less than $300 to build.Selling a $300 shaft for a whopping $30000 is blatant rip off.

The Department of Light and Chemical Industry tactfully expressed dissatisfaction with the price to Nihong Heavy Industry, and the other party gave a lengthy and unreasonable explanation. In the words of Xie Chunyan, the production director who participated in the negotiation, the other party had only one meaning: your Chinese It can't be made by man, so you have to accept whatever price I want.

The leader of the Light Chemical Department was annoyed, and summoned the heads of all the subordinate machinery factories together, showed them the broken main shaft, and then called on the factories to carry out technical research and process the same shaft to replace the Japanese The original one.

Hearing such shameless blackmail by Japanese companies, the leaders of the factories participating in the meeting were very angry. They wished to go back and organize workers immediately to process the spindle and win a sigh of relief.However, when everyone looked at the shaft seriously, they shook their heads one after another. The factory directors are not necessarily technical experts, but they all brought their own technicians to go.The technicians know that to process such axes, they must have a five-axis machine tool, and such a machine tool does not exist in China.

"Petrochemical machine, Lao Niu, can you take it down?" Xie Chunyan began to order.

Niu Beisheng, the deputy director of the petrochemical machine, waved his hand and said, "Director Xie, I have discussed with our technical section chief just now. With our technical level, it is impossible to process this shaft."

"Your factory is the company with the best light chemical system equipment, so why can't you tap the potential and organize technical personnel to tackle key problems and make it?" Xie Chunyan asked with a fluke mentality.

Niu Beisheng shook his head resolutely: "Director Xie, it's not about tapping potential, we're just not as good as others, and it makes sense for them to dare to ask for money like this."

"What the fuck is the point!" Zhu Tiejun went berserk at the time, "Can you bully people like this because of your technological leadership?"

"Director Zhu, what's the use of being angry? Can your factory process such special-shaped noodles?" Niu Beisheng said disdainfully.

Zhu Tiejun looked back at Fan Shibin who came with him, and asked: "Old Fan, take a serious look and think about it. Is it possible for our factory to capture it? It doesn't matter how much it costs."

"In terms of cost, the department can fully guarantee it." Xie Chunyan said, "The leader of the department said that if it can be made within 3 yuan, it will be regarded as a sigh of relief. Everyone knows that our foreign exchange is very tight now. It's totally out of the question to come up with $[-] to buy a new shaft."

Fan Shibin stepped forward, carefully caressed the broken shaft, and imagined the processing technology in his mind.After a long while, he shook his head to Zhu Tiejun in frustration, and said, "Director Zhu, I feel a little overwhelmed. These special-shaped surfaces must be processed with a five-axis machine tool. With our existing equipment, we can only process A relatively similar shape was produced. However, the 21 ice machine must operate under high-speed and high-pressure conditions, and the shape of the main shaft is biased.

"So, it can't be processed?" Zhu Tiejun asked with some disappointment.

"It can't be processed, this kind of axis must be made with a five-axis machine tool..."

"Wait!" Zhu Tiejun interrupted Fan Shibin. He thought for a while, with a look of excitement on his face: "Old Fan, do you remember that Xiao Lin and Lao Hu worked on a technology Experiment, I remember, they mentioned the five-axis machine thing."

Fan Shibin also went to the office of Hanhua Industrial Company to visit the weird workpiece. After Zhu Tiejun reminded him, he also remembered: "Yes, the one made by Xiaolin and the others is more complicated than this shaft. Said Maybe, we can really figure it out.”

"What, what?" Xie Chunyan listened to the conversation between the two, as if grasping at a life-saving straw: "Old Zhu, you mean, it is possible for your factory to get this shaft out?"

"I still can't answer you with certainty, but Director Xie, the technicians in our factory have done similar technical research. Lao Fan and I need to go back and meet with them. Don't worry, it's a matter of national honor. Things, even if there is only 1% hope, we will put in 100% effort."

"That's great!" Xie Chunyan said, "Old Zhu, I have a blueprint drawn by the technicians organized by the department. You can take it back and ask the technicians to have a look. If you have any difficulties, just ask the provincial department. .This task is now a political task, and we must complete it even if we are trying to sell iron. "

-----------------------

Let me explain: the incident of the 21 ice machine is a real event that happened in the past, but when it comes to the main shaft and special-shaped surface, it is a fiction for dramatic effect.Don't take the real equipment parameters to compare.
