Military industrial hegemony

Chapter 42 The Joy of Order

Jiang Chen walked out quickly, looked at Dongzi and asked, "Where is he?"

"In the conference room, Uncle Xu and Uncle Chen are receiving you." Dongzi replied.

"Let's go, don't make people wait. Jiang Chen walked quickly to the conference room, and Dong Zi followed closely.

When Jiang Chen walked into the meeting room, he found that basically all the leaders were there, and it was rare for Jiang Chen to see such a crowd.

"Xiaochen is here. Let me introduce you. This is Comrade Lu Chunyang, the new military representative of our factory." Secretary Xu pointed to a middle-aged man in his 30s wearing military uniform and wearing glasses, and introduced: " Representative Lu, this is our Deputy Section Chief Jiang, he was the one who led the design and manufacture of the new sniper rifle."

Jiang Chen quickly stretched out his hand to shake and said, "Hi, welcome."

"Hello, Section Chief Jiang, I've heard you famous for a long time, and it's like thunder." Representative Lu Chunyang shook hands and smiled.

"Don't dare, dare not, I'm over the award." Jiang Chen quickly replied, although he didn't like these polite words, he still had to use them on this occasion.

"This is our old superior, I won't introduce much, you guys know each other." Secretary Xu pointed to Deputy Director Lu of the National Defense Science, Technology and Industry Bureau and introduced to Jiang Chen.

"Hello, old leader, welcome to inspect again." Jiang Chen replied with a smile.

"Haha, I am also honored by you, Section Chief Jiang. Your name, Jiang Chen, is now well-known in the entire system. It has brought glory to our province's military industry system." Deputy Director Lu laughed heartily.

"Hehe, you're too much of an award. I only have the support and care of my old leader to achieve some success." Jiang Chen continued to greet him, and he also knew why he was so hypocritical now.

After some politeness, everyone was seated, and now we will get to the point, and Secretary Xu Shijie will preside over the meeting:
"Comrades, some time ago, our factory has achieved some achievements, and it has received the attention of the superior authorities and the military. This is a great joy for us. Now we have invited Lu Chunyang Jun to speak. Everyone is warmly welcome."

After a burst of applause, representative Lu Chunyang stood up and cleared his throat and said: "Leaders, comrades, first of all, I am very honored to come as a representative of the military to our glorious collective... I am not here for pressure, but for To serve as a bridge between you and the military. If you have any questions about the production of new equipment, you can tell me, and I will contact the military immediately to solve them. I will also integrate into this group as soon as possible, and I will make progress together with you. Hope you guys can support me a lot.”

After a burst of applause, Secretary Xu Shijie went on to say: "This time the military representatives came to bring us good news, that is, our newly developed firearms have passed the final type test of the General Logistics Department. Talk to us."

"Okay." Representative Lu Chunyang opened the file and continued: "This time, the Ministry attaches great importance to the new sniper rifle, and has organized many experts to test it, and achieved good test results, which have won the appreciation and affirmation of many experts and leaders. There is nothing wrong with the firearms as a whole, but the leaders of the headquarters put forward two opinions based on the actual situation of our army, hoping to get improvements from the B[-] factory."

"Oh? What's your opinion? Just say it as a military representative. We will try our best to improve it." Jiang Chen replied under the gaze of everyone. He was also curious about the direction of improvement. Maybe the leaders of the headquarters have more foresight and deeper consideration than himself. Maybe.

"It's like this." Lu Chunyang continued to explain: "The leaders of the General Logistics Department are very satisfied with the test results of these two guns, and initially finalized them as 'High-precision Type 7.62' and 'High-precision Type 51', so that they can be used in combination. However, considering Considering that you are about to export to the outside world and the actual use needs of our troops, I hope you can replace the current 7.62mmX54mm bullets with [-]mmx[-]mm bullets, which are the machine gun bullets we use, so as to reduce the logistical support pressure of firearms. There are no special bullets for sniper rifles on the battlefield, and common machine gun bullets can also be used in emergencies.”

"No problem." Jiang Chen responded immediately: "This is not a big change to the overall firearms, we can accept it."

"En, good." Lu Chunyang nodded and said: "The second is that the General Manager hopes that the price of your firearms can be adjusted again. The current price is too high, which is not conducive to the equipment and popularization of the troops."

"This price can no longer be lowered, but if the army purchases more, our production cost may drop a lot, but the individual ones really cannot be lowered. Many of our parts are handmade by veteran workers. The output Very low, besides, we have to guarantee the quality of each gun." Jiang Chen shook his head.

Lu Chunyang nodded: "It's understandable, but the general manager didn't let you lose money in vain. This time, we may need more than [-] sniper rifles entrusted by many units, including the army, public security and other agencies. How about it? Enough for you to produce for more than a year."

Jiang Chen didn't answer right away, he pondered for a while and asked, "What is the proportion of each of the two guns?"

"Uh, we ordered [-] sniper rifles in the early stage. The total number of sniper rifles is [-] for the first type (wooden stock), and [-] for the second type (aluminum alloy stock). If the trial is successful in the future, we may place additional orders." Lu Chunyang was a little embarrassed Dao, after all, the number is too small.

"Oh, if that's the case, our production cost may be reduced by [-]%, and the corresponding price will also be reduced by [-]%. We don't care about it. We can guarantee the ex-factory price of one type (wooden pallet) It is [-] yuan, and the ex-factory price of Type [-] (aluminum alloy gun stock) is [-] yuan, which is our lowest price, and if it is less, we will lose money." Jiang Chen looked up at Lu Chunyang and said.In fact, he had already discussed with the leaders of the factory. This time, if he sells to the military, he only needs to keep a basic profit in it.

At present, the cost of producing a "one type" (wooden stock) may be about 5000 yuan if it is mass-produced, and the "two type" (aluminum alloy stock) is about 7000 yuan.Such a high cost is mainly due to the high scrap rate, especially in terms of barrels and scopes.Therefore, the cost of scrapped parts must be included in the pricing, or you will lose money.Moreover, the masters hired also cost a lot of money, of course, Jiang Chen's design and experiment costs have not been included in this.However, Jiang Chen and the others didn't plan to earn money from the troops. If they didn't owe so much foreign debt and have new scientific research projects to start, the price might be lower.

Lu Chunyang nodded again when he heard the words: "The price is more reasonable. I will contact the Ministry later. I believe the problem is not big. There should be results within two days."

"Well, that's good. I have a problem, that is, the material is more difficult to solve. You know that steel and aluminum alloys with relatively high requirements are used in it. I wonder if the department can help solve it." Jiang Chen was a little worried. Could it be.Indeed, if large-scale production is to be carried out, materials are indeed a problem.

"Don't worry about that." Deputy Director Lu of the Bureau of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense said with a smile, "It is an honor for our province to be able to accept orders from troops. In terms of materials, the Bureau of Science and Industry will handle it for you."

"Oh, then I'm relieved. Well, I also want to ask how our application to participate in the exhibition is going?" Jiang Chen replied with a smile.

Deputy Director Lu said with a smile: "Haha, I know you can't bear to ask. Don't worry, the leaders of the Science and Industry Committee have agreed, but you have to take the exhibited weapons to the capital for review and approval in advance. After agreeing, we will form a group to participate in the exhibition together.”

"That's great. Today we have double happiness. Let the cafeteria cook two dishes in a while, so we can celebrate." Secretary Xu said with a smile.

"Haha, definitely."

A group of people exchanged a few more pleasantries before the meeting ended, and then Deputy Director Lu stayed with Jiang Chen to say a few more words. The content of the conversation was nothing more than that this opportunity was hard-won, so we should seize it well and so on.He also asked about the joint research and development with the Aviation Academy, and finally explained that Jiang Chen should take good care of his body, the body is the capital of the revolution, etc. Anyway, he is very caring.

The next thing is the wine bureau. This is probably deeply rooted in our country's culture, and it will be even more so in later generations. Many cooperation projects in Jiang Chen's later generations were negotiated at the wine table.Although Jiang Chen hated this kind of behavior very much, he had to succumb to taking advantage of it.In the later life, he was just a young man who graduated from an ordinary university and had no background. He had to work hard for everything. He just didn't expect it to be the same now.

In the end, Jiang Chen didn't know who sent him back to the dormitory. He just felt a headache all night, and he didn't wake up until almost noon the next day.He took a shower, changed his clothes, ate something in the cafeteria, and went to work in the research center again.Speaking of the cafeteria, I have to mention Old Wangtou. He is so kind to Jiang Chen, because Jiang Chen is often busy with work and misses meals, so Old Wangtou will specially leave a copy for him to ensure that he can come anytime. eat.He always told people that he saw from Jiang Chen the enthusiasm he had when he first came here when he was young, but it was a pity that he slowly wore it away.But this young man doesn't know, he seems to have a kind of magic power to attract people around him to fight with him, even Ma Jundong who is the most mischievous and mischievous together has been taken care of by him one by one.Now that parent doesn't boast that these children are promising, and that girl doesn't want to marry these guys as daughters-in-law, all of this is Jiang Chen's credit.

As time passed, Jiang Chen was still participating in the development of the bazooka, but this time he would not be desperate, but very leisurely.Of course, this result was jointly supervised by the factory and his family. After a few days of adaptation, Jiang Chen gradually got used to it. He began to understand that work is not his only life, and he has more interesting things to do, such as how to hide With Li Siyan's surveillance and Liu Yun dating alone.

Finally, the general manager's reply finally came. They agreed to the price and expressed their gratitude to B[-] factory for their support to the national defense industry. They also promised that after signing the agreement, the first batch of advance payment will arrive in the account in the near future. I hope they can get it as soon as possible. Production.

After getting this news, the whole B[-] factory was in a state of excitement. Secretary Xu, who has always been stingy, specially sent someone to buy some firecrackers to set off to increase the atmosphere. They had waited too long for this moment.Some old workers burst into tears after hearing the news. Their factory finally survived from the brink of bankruptcy. It was not easy.At this moment, Jiang Chen is a hero in the eyes of everyone!Yes, well deserved, at least the B[-] people at this time think so.
