Chapter 109 Men's Responsibilities

As an engineer who is familiar with machinery and materials and has done automation solutions and hardware design in the company, Dongqing knows that the production of masks is not complicated, it just needs factory buildings, technology, personnel, raw materials and equipment.As for the first four things, Desheng is not lacking in any of them.

Desheng has its own production workshop, which covers an area of ​​several hundred thousand square meters.As long as the company is willing to transform the workshop into a mask production workshop, the transformation can basically be completed in two or three days.

Then "Desheng" is a manufacturer of high-tech new materials. Its product line includes the supply of sound insulation materials to automobile manufacturers, and this sound insulation material is precisely the non-woven fabric used in the production of masks.As for personnel, there are many people like Jia Lie waiting for the company to start work. It depends on how many front-line workers the company can bring back.

According to Dongqing, the biggest problem for Desheng now is the last one: equipment, because Desheng does not have a ready-made mask machine.

Dongqing checked the equipment on the Internet. Just entered the three words "mask machine", and all the links that popped up were buying links mixed with phone numbers and QQ numbers. Usually tens of thousands to 10,000+ one mask machine, now The spot price of one unit online is over 100 million.

Even with such a sky-high price, there are still an endless stream of people who follow the post and ask for purchase.The large number made Dongqing intuitively feel that these medical protective equipment are rare industries during the epidemic.

In Dongqing's impression, producing masks, especially disposable flat masks, is not too difficult.The mask machine is also a very simple machine. He did not expect that such a simple thing could be sold for more than 100 million.

At this time, he felt incredible and at the same time realized that this was an opportunity.

Because he remembered that before he resigned, the junior fellow who started his own trading company came to him once and said that he had sold a batch of mask machines, but there was a small problem with the machines, which prevented him from selling them. In the warehouse, I was so anxious that I couldn't eat or sleep. I thought of his senior brother who was doing hardware design, so I sent him the drawings of the machine and asked him to help find out where the problem was.

Dongqing is a technical geek who helps whenever he can, let alone his junior brother.He remembered that he looked at the drawings and pointed out a few things that he thought were problematic. Later, his junior brother disappeared and Dongqing was busy with work at the time, so he never asked about it again.

Thinking of this incident, Dongqing prayed that she had not deleted those drawings at that time, and quickly opened the folder of her previous work to look for it.A few minutes later, he finally found a "Mask Machine Drawing" file, opened it and saw that it was indeed the drawing from that time.

At this moment, Dongqing was so excited that she only had one thought in her mind: good deeds are rewarded with good deeds, and God was really kind to her.

Dongqing couldn't wait to click on the drawing and saw that the names and graphics of each component were listed in detail. The total number of all parts was about eight or nine hundred, and most of them were machined and collaborative parts.

Although these parts may seem numerous, they are not complicated and can be produced and supplied by the affiliated companies that cooperate with "Desheng".

Dongqing also found that from the end of January to now, large manufacturing companies in other provinces and cities have switched industries and joined the army of producing masks. This information has strengthened Dongqing’s confidence that this road will work.

At this time, Dongqing was so excited that she wanted to tell Jia Lie her idea immediately, but Jia Lie was sleeping like a pig's head now. He could only suppress his excitement and started writing the project book by himself, describing the market needs and the company's requirements. The existing resources, future profits, etc. are all written down, thinking that when Jia Lie wakes up tomorrow, she will pass it on to the leader immediately.

Dongqing kept writing until three o'clock in the morning. He looked at the project that had already been completed, and he only hoped that the project would pass the review.Because speaking more broadly, if "Desheng" really succeeds in its transformation, with its daily output, it will definitely be able to greatly alleviate the shortage of masks in Jincheng at this time.On a smaller scale, if the company is up and running and profitable, then Jia Lie will not have to be laid off, and he may be able to return to his position in the company. Then the urgent crisis that their family is currently facing, as well as the relationship between him and Jia Lie, Lie Jian's always-arguing obsession with being a soft-boiler can be solved.

After an unknown amount of time, Jia Lie finally woke up from thirst. She opened her eyes and saw that the light in the living room was still on, and Dongqing was turning on the computer, typing without knowing what she was typing.

There was smoke in her throat and she coughed a few times.Dongqing was so focused on writing that she was startled by the sound behind the sofa. She turned her head and found that Jia Lie was already awake.

"Are you awake? Drink some water." Dongqing stood up immediately and poured her a glass of warm water.

"What time is it?" Jia Lie slowly sat up, took the cup, drank the water in one breath, put down the cup, and looked at Dongqing with an excited face strangely.

"It's 05:30." Dongqing picked up the cup and poured her another cup.

"Evening?" Jia Lie didn't know how long he had slept.

"At 05:30 in the morning, I will make breakfast for you and your daughter in a moment." Holly sat opposite her and handed her the cup.

"You didn't sleep all night?" Jia Lie looked at him doubtfully, then at the computer on the table: "What are you doing? You seem very happy?"

Seeing that she finally woke up, Dongqing couldn't help it anymore, took the computer over, showed her the project book that she had written in a night with great interest, and then told her her thoughts with high spirits.

Jia Lie looked at Dongqing who was still so energetic after staying up all night. His expression changed from surprise at first, then silence, and finally hesitation: "Is your idea really okay? Desheng has never made a mask before. If it doesn't meet the specifications, what to do?"

Dongqing showed Jia Lie the mask she had worn today: "Look, the key to making a disposable flat mask is to weld two layers of non-woven fabric and a layer of melt-blown cloth into one piece. This process is very beneficial to Germany." It is very simple for Desheng. The nose bridge of this mask can be adjusted. Even if there is an error of more than ten millimeters when it is made, there is no problem. Desheng used to make auto parts with an error of no more than one millimeter. Now it is a A mask with an error of more than ten millimeters has no impact, isn’t that a piece of cake?”

Jia Lie is still worried: "In my experience, the more simple something seems, the less simple it actually is."

"I just said that the production process is simple, not that the whole thing is simple. First, you have to convince Mr. Wang, and then let him convince the company's senior management. Even if the company approves the project plan, during the entire production process, We also have to face whether there are enough front-line workers, whether management capabilities are in place, and various arrangements for overall planning and procurement. After all, this is the period of the epidemic, not ordinary times. Most of Desheng's front-line workers are from the surrounding areas of Jincheng. It is not yet clear whether they can return to work on time. We know. There are also spare parts needed for mask machines. Whether the factory workers and supply capacity of Desheng's supplier can keep up are all difficult problems."

When Dongqing talked about this, her expression was vivid and her eyes were bright. Although the difficulty was not small, the chance of success was not small.It had been a long, long time since he had experienced the rush of adrenaline caused by a project, and he was so excited that he didn't want to sleep until he finished the task.

Of course Jia Lie noticed his appearance, which was exactly what she had been hoping to see all these years.Although in her mind, the chance of this project passing is not high, but because of Dongqing's rekindled passion for work, she wants to give it a try.

But before sending something to her boss, she had to learn as much as possible about the project.After all, before you can convince others, you must first convince yourself.

She went to wash her face, and the two of them sat at the dinner table together. Jia Lie took a notebook and wrote down all the key points that Dongqing just said. Then he listed the difficulties one by one, and then focused on what he didn't understand. Start asking questions.

"According to the ideal situation you said, Desheng has produced this automatic mask machine by itself. Is it difficult to use it? Do the workers need training? What is the production capacity of a machine in a day?"

Dongqing showed her the drawings: "A fully automatic mask machine is equivalent to an automated production line. The raw materials go in at this end, and a finished mask comes out at the other end. According to the original design of this machine, it can be produced in about 1 minute. About a hundred masks.”

"One hundred pieces per minute?" Jia Lie was shocked by this number: "Then if Desheng really agrees to produce it, people in Jincheng will be able to buy masks soon."

"That's right, so you have to try your best to convince Mr. Wang." Dongqing now places all her hopes on Jia Lie.

When working on this project, he has an indescribable motivation all over his body.In addition to wanting to fight for a job for Jia Lie and myself, this force is more because of what I am doing, which may help more people. Not only can the doctors on the front line To get the most basic safety guarantee, the most important thing is to let countless ordinary people like them have enough masks to use in their daily life, so they no longer have to worry about it.

It can be said that for the first time, Dongqing experienced a sense of value and pride in her career.

"I...will try my best. But can the sound insulation cotton produced by Desheng be on the same level as the non-woven fabric of medical masks?" Jia Lie was still a little worried.

"In terms of raw materials alone, they are all polypropylene fiber non-woven fabrics and are environmentally friendly materials. However, during the production and processing process, the sound insulation materials for automobiles can be completed in ordinary factories, but the production of masks must be in sterile conditions. It operates in a dusty environment. So if the project is approved, the first thing to do is to strictly disinfect the renovated factory until it reaches production standards."

Jia Lie wrote down all his words in his notebook, and asked again: "Is it true that the masks produced in the factory can be used directly after disinfection?"

"No, before the masks leave the factory and go on sale, they have to go through a round of disinfection and analysis for up to [-] days. This link cannot save a day. Because of this disinfection time, even manufacturers related to medical equipment are producing Many citizens still cannot buy masks. But I believe that as long as these capable large companies are willing to participate, this difficulty will be overcome soon.”

Jia Lie looked at Dongqing's confident expression, as if she saw the high-spirited him back then. Although she thought this was a bit fanciful at first, now, she chooses to believe him.

The sky turned white, and the sun gave the clouds a golden edge, adding a bit of magnificence to the cold sky.

"I'll make breakfast for you first." Dongqing saw that it was almost seven o'clock, and worried that Jia Lie, who hadn't eaten all day, would be too hungry, so she hurriedly got up and went to work in the kitchen.

"Okay." Jia Lie was indeed a little hungry.She stood up from the chair, stretched out, and looked out the window in a good mood. She didn't know whether it was because she was full from sleep, or because her state of holly was back. At this time, she had swept away the dejection of yesterday.

She looked at the sky. It had rained and snowed all day yesterday, but today it was a rare good weather. This should be a good sign.

Life is like a blind box, you never know what you will draw next.

Looking at Dongqing who was humming a little tune, Jia Lie didn't know why he suddenly seemed to be a different person, but such a change was what she wanted.Even though the future was still uncertain at this time, she was no longer as panicked as she was yesterday. She only felt that everything was full of hope.
