Chapter 390: One third of an acre of land
"Brother, these are the drawings and data of the replacement product. Take a look."

For several consecutive holidays, Li Dayong either spent time at Fenghua Garment Factory on Hong Kong Island or squatted at Changbei Machinery Factory in Beijing. He already had a down-to-earth style of "doer", which not only brought Li Ye the benefits of new products. News and even technical materials were brought.

Li Ye took a look at the drawings and put them aside. He focused on the technical data and found that power consumption, noise and vibration had all been greatly improved. More importantly, it had reached the level of 8,000 stitches per minute.

Although ordinary workers usually adjust the speed to 4500-5000 stitches per minute, the maximum number of stitches represents the level of this industrial sewing machine in some aspects.

The reciprocating mechanism of the sewing machine constantly moves up and down, 5000 cycles and 8000 cycles per minute. The requirements for material strength and accuracy are completely different.

When salesmen sell products to customers, they need to use these digital data to emphasize its "international level."

It's just like selling a car. I usually drive like a Buddhist. The accelerator is never more than one-third, and the fastest I can do is over 100.
But you can’t sell me a car that has a maximum speed of 120 an hour and can accelerate from 0 to 100 mph in ten seconds. I want at least a car with a speed of 180 an hour.

As for how fast I can drive? Will it be floor oil?
Leave me alone?
In fact, ordinary people will feel dizzy to varying degrees when they accelerate from 0 to 100 for five seconds. But if you are given a car that accelerates from 0 to 100 for three seconds, do you still care whether you feel dizzy or not?

Decades later, a new energy vehicle with great user expectations was launched. It was good everywhere, but its top speed was only 150 kilometers per hour. Then the market weakened, and in the end, it had to rely on A big price cut brought sales to the expected level.

Then the designer of this car is probably an out-and-out data man. He believes that 99% of people will not drive more than 150, but...
Did you know that every driver has a heart for speed and passion?

Li Ye put down the materials and asked in a deep voice: "Then what are you going to do? Process the core components on Hong Kong Island and then import them for assembly? Or do you want to import advanced processing equipment?"

"If this data is true, it's pretty good,"

Although I don't race cars, are you going to sell me a broken car pulled by an old cow? Who are you trying to fool?

"Processed in Hong Kong Island?"

When the time comes, where do you think I stand? I am a member of a Hong Kong company, but the mainland workers called me a traitor. Do you think I was wronged? "

"Haha~"

Besides, this technology looks advanced now and will be updated in a few years. It’s still early to invest in future technology! We can't always let Hong Kong investors bear the research and development costs. Factory Director Wang always gets the advantage!

But Li Dayong said helplessly: "Brother, that's what I did at that time, but you didn't know! After Factory Director Wang saw the development budget listed by my teacher, he said that he would not give money until the product was inspected? so."

"Brother, you guessed right again," Li Dayong sensed Li Ye's displeasure and whispered: "Guo Tianyong wants to import assembly, and the teacher and I both want to import high-precision machine tool equipment."

Li Dayong grinned and said awkwardly: "Brother, I don't know why you are so decisive, it's so hard for me to decide!

After reading the data, Li Ye said with satisfaction: "Although it is still not as good as the new products of Fuso and Nanbang, it is close to the level of their previous generation products. As long as the cost is controlled, there is a lot of potential in the mainland market."

Li Dayong immediately patted his chest and said: "The head material of the new product was found in a special steel factory in eastern Hubei by our teacher who called all his classmates and friends through phone calls and telegrams.
Then I took the materials and drawings and went to Hong Kong Island for processing in person. I also measured the data in person with the teacher, and there was not a single decimal point wrong. "

"It's absolutely no problem. Don't worry, bro. Although my children are not ugly, they must not brag about themselves. They must be truthful."

Li Ye smiled and said strangely: "Then you can make the decision yourself! Although you don't have a position in Changbei, it is your factory. You have to learn to make the decision yourself. Losing money or making money is a growth experience."

Li Dayong nodded and said helplessly: "Brother, we have experimented many times with the machine tools from Changbei Machinery Factory. The accuracy error fluctuated too much. We really had no choice, so we went to Hong Kong Island to process the core components."

Now the new product has been researched, but conflicts have also emerged. Guo Tianyong believes that the technology of the new product belongs to Hong Kong, but once it is put into production, Director Wang will definitely not be happy.

But during the Chinese New Year this year, Li Dayong mentioned to Li Ye that Director Wang of Changbei Machinery Company would be involved in technical research. At that time, he came up with an idea and asked Li Ye's teachers Cao Zhisheng and Tang Mingtai to list the research and development expenses for Wang. The factory director took a look.

When Changbei Machinery Co., Ltd. was a joint venture, Hong Kong investors established their own R&D workshops to be responsible for technology research and development.

Li Ye looked at Li Dayong with some surprise.

So now that the product has been developed, it's really hard for Li Ye to kick them out.

Li Ye said puzzledly: "Didn't you ask me that before? Although technology research and development is the responsibility of Hong Kong, Director Wang believes that they can share the research and development costs. That is not non-negotiable.
We borrowed other people's land, used their workers, and made a lot of money. We can also make peace of mind by sharing part of our technology and profits, right? "

Li Ye couldn't help laughing and said, "You are wrong about Dayong. I really know this trick."

In his previous life, Li Ye was thinking about making more money by selling, so he worked as a salesman for a few days, but he met a strange boss who "reimburses travel expenses after signing the business contract."

If you work on the production line driving screws, you won't get paid at most. If you go to develop the market, you may even lose your few thousand savings! Seeing Li Ye's half-smiling look, Li Dayong couldn't tell if his brother was angry.

So he had no choice but to say sarcastically: "Actually, brother, the main reason I came here today is to ask the master for his ideas. He is in a similar situation to Director Wang, so I want him to give me some advice."

"Oh~"

Li Ye smiled and teased: "So you came here for your master! Then what are you doing here with me for so long?"

Li Dayong also laughed: "Brother, I am actually still willing to chat with you and ask the master for advice. That is to listen to the lesson. If you can give me an idea, then I don't want to trouble the master!"

Li Ye thought about it for a moment, then nodded and said, "That's it! Maybe your master can really give me some advice."

Li Zhong found that when he was in charge of Qingshuihe Food Company, he had the same position as Director Wang in charge of Changbei Machinery Co., Ltd., so it was a good idea to put himself in his shoes.

Li Ye went to call Li Zhongfa over, and then briefly introduced: "Grandpa, what's going on is Changbei Machinery Co., Ltd.! There are people from Pei Wenhui in it. It's Pei Wencong's future dowry for his sister. That's definitely the case with Dayong." They are closely related, and now we are encountering problems."

Li Ye told Li Zhongfa the situation in detail, and Li Zhongfa asked a series of questions without thinking much.

"How much is the research funding? How is it calculated? When spending, are you always reporting to Director Wang for signature? Are there official receipts for all materials consumed?"

Listening to Li Zhongfa's series of questions, Li Dayong had been confused for a long time, while Li Ye was laughing on the side, as if he had seen the "easy to handle" demeanor of the financial accountant when he was reimbursing himself.

"The research funding is close to 700,000 yuan. How is it calculated? I have to ask my teacher, but there is definitely no report and signature from Director Wang. He doesn't even know the progress of new products.

And he may not agree with the rewards given to several technical researchers."

Li Zhongfa was stunned and asked, "How much is that reward?"

Li Dayong said guiltily: "There are three people in total, each of them has 15,000 yuan, and the other 5,000 yuan is a red envelope for the workshop workers."

"Then don't think about it," Li Zhongfa waved his hand and said: "He won't agree to a reward of fifteen thousand for this person. Why did you spend so much research funds? Close to seven hundred thousand?"

Li Dayong said aggrievedly: "Master, we have already saved a lot. Every time we improve the performance, we don't know how many experiments it will take, and each time is money!"

"Tsk, tsk~, it's difficult to handle. It costs 700,000 yuan. Even if he believes in you, he won't give you the money readily. After the work is done, you come to ask for hard work? What do you think?"

Li Zhongfa shook his head repeatedly, saying that the group of technical men responsible for the research were inexperienced.

Li Ye can understand that Changbei Machinery Co., Ltd. is not a scientific research unit that specializes in research after all.
In the eyes of outsiders, many scientific research experiments are just a useless repetition of taking off your pants and farting. In order to determine the cause of a fault, you may have to waste countless consumables in dozens of possible directions, and you may not necessarily get good results.

In this situation, wouldn't it be easy for pure managers and pure technicians to conflict?
Technician: "Just give me the money. Don't talk nonsense. You won't understand even after I say it."

Manager: "I don't understand technology and don't understand RMB? Even if you buy a screw worth 20 cents, you have to write it clearly for me!"

Otherwise, Mr. Ren can’t just point fingers at his workplace! What if Lenovo's technical, industrial and technical trade eventually became a technical, industrial and technical trade?
The harmony between technology and management is not something that can be explained in a few words. Only those with a big heart cannot be competent.

Li Ye thought for a while and asked Li Zhongfa: "Grandpa, why don't you let Dayong get in touch and organize Qingshuihe Food Company and Changbei Machinery Company to visit and learn from each other? Then you can help Dayong see what kind of person that Factory Director Wang is. How about it?"

"Okay! You are using your grandfather as a spy!"

Li Zhongfa laughed, then squinted his eyes and asked Li Ye: "Xiaoye, what kind of character do you want Director Wang to be?"

Faced with Li Zhongfa's eyes, Li Ye said very calmly: "I hope he is a person who is not pedantic or rigid in formality, but who dares to make changes and take responsibility for the development of the machinery industry in the mainland."

"but."

Li Ye smiled and said: "This kind of people are rare. Most people can only see clearly the one-third of an acre of land in front of them, and then they hold this three-thirds of an acre of land tightly in their arms and plant cabbage in winter. , plant cucumbers in summer,
It looked quite busy, but little did he know that outside this three-thirds of an acre, there were tens of thousands of acres of wasteland waiting to be reclaimed. "

"."

Li Zhongfa was silent for a long time, then nodded and said, "What you said makes sense. One-third of an acre is a bit too small."
