The group of people came to a spacious workshop, which was filled with steel, and there was a large overhead crane on the mountain above for holding molten iron.
"This is our No. 1 workshop, the largest steel production workshop..."
In the corner of the workshop, Yang Xiaotao was wearing a hat. When he came in, he felt the heat wave. He looked at the cylindrical stove in the middle and curiously asked, "Is this an open-hearth furnace?"
"Yes! Mr. Yang."
"Our open-hearth furnace has a history of twenty-five years. Although it is older, it can still be used."
"The refining process is underway now. It will be completed in two days. This time around twelve tons will be produced..."
Guan Zhiyong said on the side, Yang Xiaotao nodded and looked around.
Everything here is completely different from the previous steel rolling mill. This is also the first time he has come to a steel mill in his two lifetimes.
The tall building, the hot wind, the dark walls, and the stove that was not glowing with fire.
There seems to be no winter here, here everything is a world of iron and fire.
Yang Xiaotao was walking outside. It wasn't that he didn't want to go inside, but a group of workers were busy. If he went there, it would only cause chaos.
"Is this transporting coal?"
I looked at the workers around me who were wearing single clothes, hats on their heads, and dark skin, pushing small carts in their hands, constantly transporting coal forward.
"Yes, this furnace must maintain continuous firepower and cannot be turned off. Only in this way can the iron ore be smelted."
Guan Zhiyong said on the side, Yang Xiaotao nodded, and then asked Pang Guo, "I remember that our machinery factory made two conveyor belts. Can they be installed here?"
Pang Guo nodded, "There is no problem with the installation, but we must consider the power issue."
Yang Xiaotao frowned, and then heard Pang Guo say, "This is not Sijiu City, this is the steel mill..."
Guan Zhiyong on the side also nodded. Although electricity is still an important resource these days, the limited supply must be given priority to important units.
"The conveyor belt doesn't have much use. If it doesn't work, I'll use a diesel engine to generate electricity. Director, you will make a report later and apply for two generators."
"By the way, let Li Tiejun bring someone over to take a look. He understands this stuff."
"good!"
Yang Xiaotao said, Guan Zhiyong and others felt warm.
This job of transporting coal is no small matter. When needed, a large number of manpower is required to transport coal inside, which is not only tiring, but also dangerous.
Now, with Yang Xiaotao saying this, the future life of the steel plant will be much better than before.
Then Yang Xiaotao came forward to talk to the resting workers. When everyone saw that the factory director and director were following behind him, they knew it was the leader of the machinery factory who was looking a little nervous.
But seeing that Yang Xiaotao was so young, after talking for a while, he lost his inhibitions and started talking about the situation in the steel plant.
"Old comrade, how many years have you been here?"
Yang Xiaotao took the prepared cigarettes from his pocket and distributed them to the people around him.
When everyone saw the smoke and the big front door, they all smiled happily and lit up their cigarettes, no longer restrained.
"Have you been working here for eight years?"
"Eight years, how old are you?"
"I'm only thirty."
"Ah, I see you look like this. You must be at least forty. You look a little anxious."
Ha ha ha ha
There was a burst of laughter around, and someone was joking from time to time. The man did not make any fuss, and took a long puff of cigarette, "Boss, don't look at me for being anxious, but I am very unambiguous in my work..."
"Can you eat enough?"
"Fortunately, we have meat for three days. It is far from the city and transportation is a bit troublesome."
Yang Xiaotao nodded and asked Wang Hao to write it down.
"Where is the medical care? How many doctors are there? Are there any rehearsals for large-scale incidents?"
...
"Transportation situation..."
As Yang Xiaotao raised questions one by one, more and more workers gathered around him, and more and more responses were received, which also made the workers realize that Mr. Yang of the machinery factory in front of them really cared about them.
Otherwise, why ask so many questions?
When leaders came here in the past, they were always concerned about output, output, output.
People like Yang Xiaotao are the first to come here regardless of their output.
Guan Zhiyong and others looked at each other in confusion.
Listening to the workers' reactions, they realized what they had missed.
“Is there a protocol for safety issues?”
Guan Zhiyong was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "There is this, but it's from the past."
"Go back and check it again and send a copy to the machinery factory. In the future, the machinery factory will come down regularly to inspect the vehicle safety facilities and the implementation of the regulations. Safety issues are more important than Mount Taishan and cannot be superficial."
"yes!"
Guan Zhiyong wiped his forehead and was worried about his future work.
Yang Xiaotao talked with everyone for a long time, and then visited other workshops, this time heading to the conference room.
In the conference room, the administrators of the steel plant had already made preparations, and the heads of various departments participating in the meeting were also waiting. In front of the conference room, there were two podiums made of Zhuozi, with enamel jars placed on them.
Yang Xiaotao and Guan Zhiyong walked in. Everyone stood up and applauded to welcome them. Yang Xiaotao walked up to the podium and did not sit down. Instead, he stood in front and extended his hand for everyone to sit down.
"Good afternoon, comrades from the steel plant."
"I am Yang Xiaotao."
Scanning around, Yang Xiaotao saw everyone's expressions in his eyes.
Then I got straight to the point and went straight to the topic.
"I came here today for two things. First, to understand the situation at the steel plant."
"The second thing is what we said last time about setting up a research and development department."
After Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, he picked up the enamel jar from behind, took a sip, and finally looked at the crowd.
"I don't know much about professional steelmaking, so I won't go into detail here."
When Yang Xiaotao said this, many old people below him breathed a sigh of relief. What they were most afraid of was a leader who didn't know how to pretend to understand, especially when Yang Xiaotao was still so young.
So young and energetic.
Now hearing Yang Xiaotao say this, everyone understands that there is a reason why people can become high-level people.
"However, through my understanding with the employees, I will briefly share my current understanding of the situation."
"Workers' life issues and logistical pressure issues must be communicated in a timely manner. Since they are part of the machinery factory, the factory will treat them equally. This point."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Yang Xiaotao looked back at Guan Zhiyong, "Director Guan, please communicate with Director Chen to clarify any difficulties."
"We cannot let workers work hungry."
Guan Zhiyong stood up immediately, looking excited, "Yes, Mr. Yang."
bang bang bang
When the people below heard this, they immediately burst into applause.
Previously, because they could not complete the tasks assigned by their superiors, their benefits were greatly reduced.
They didn't have the nerve to ask for help. The factory they took over was like this. They couldn't change the current situation of the steel factory and fell into a vicious cycle step by step.
Of course, the basic security that should be paid is still paid on time, but steelmaking is a strenuous job, and the factory cannot provide certain compensation, and the workers' bodies will not be able to bear it.
"Second, safety issues."
"There are two parts here. One is the safety regulations. Just now the factory director said there are them. If there are them, then implement them."
"Don't turn a deaf ear to these regulations. The machinery factory already has a mature safety regulations inspection system. In the future, we will come down from time to time to inspect safety. I hope everyone can explain the situation to the workers. Safety issues are not trivial."
The people below nodded. Although sometimes they took off their hats because they thought it was too hot, they all knew that wearing them was always useful.
"In addition, the medical department of the factory should be strengthened."
"We don't want accidents to happen, but if we don't have enough protection, there is a contingency. At that time, when disaster strikes, medical staff are life-saving."
“So our factory’s medical department must be focused on building.”
"The factory director must implement this as soon as possible, and comrades must also respond actively."
Guan Zhiyong nodded again. As for how to implement it, it was up to him, the factory director, to figure it out.
"Okay, let's talk about the second thing."
Yang Xiaotao put down the enamel jar and walked back to his seat this time.
Guan Zhiyong knew that Yang Xiaotao was talking about the R&D Department.
"Mr. Yang, after we came back last time, we held a meeting and selected 21 people from the factory based on the two requirements you provided to establish the R&D department."
"This is the list."
Someone beside him handed a folder to Yang Xiaotao.
"This is the chief of our R&D department, Zhang Hongxian. He was originally a technician at a steel plant. He meets all the requirements and has rich work experience, so he was appointed as the chief of the R&D department."
As Guan Zhiyong spoke, a thin young man stood up from the front seat.
Behind him are all the personnel of the R&D Department.
At this moment, he was looking at Yang Xiaotao, with a hint of reverence in his eyes.
If they can be here and enter the R&D department, just like the factory director said, they are the future of the steel plant.
All this is because of the young man on the podium, who is younger than most of them.
Yang Xiaotao looked up, scanned the people behind him, nodded slightly, and then asked Zhang Hongxian in front of him, "Gong Zhang, since you have been chosen to lead the R&D department, tell me what you think."
Zhang Hongxian stood where he was. He had already prepared for this question, "Yes, leader."
"First of all, I would like to thank my superior leaders and factory director for their trust in allowing me to lead my comrades to carry out research and development work."
"Here, on behalf of all the personnel in the R&D Department, I would like to state that I will definitely complete the tasks assigned by my superiors and never embarrass the steel plant."
"Guarantee to complete the research and development tasks of the steel plant and resolutely implement orders and prohibitions."
bang bang bang bang
Everyone below clapped their hands and applauded amidst Zhang Hongxian’s impassioned voice.
Guan Zhiyong also nodded happily after hearing this.
Only Wang Hao and Pang Guo, who were responsible for recording the meeting, glanced at Yang Xiaotao and saw Yang Xiaotao gently slapping his palms, which was very perfunctory.
They were mentally disturbed.
Pang Guo glanced at Zhang Hongxian and shook his head mentally.
Letting you be the head of the R&D department will lead everyone to forge ahead. Just like the R&D department in a machinery factory, it will become a driving force and a steady source of motivation.
It would be better for you to express your determination to complete the task and return the task to your superiors. Are you being funny?
If your superiors had this ability, why would they bother looking for you?
The voice fell, and the smile on Zhang Hongxian's face fell. He cleared his throat again, and then said, "Mr. Yang, factory director, our R&D department has decided to start from the process, strive to improve the process, reduce working hours, and use fewer resources to make better products."
Good steel, thereby improving work efficiency..."
Zhang Hongxian was talking eloquently, as if he had a lot of pride in his chest and was ready to do something big.
Yang Xiaotao listened while flipping through the information handed to him by Guan Zhiyong.
The first one is Zhang Hongxian.
Zhang Hongxian, male, 36 years old.
He has a high school education and is from Forty-Nine City.
I have worked in a steel factory for thirteen years and have always been a technician, engaged in steel technology work.
Well, you are right, you should engage in work that you are familiar with and make breakthroughs in familiar fields.
However, it’s hard to say how much this process has improved over the years.
"Mr. Yang."
Guan Zhiyong nodded and introduced himself into Yang Xiaotao's ear.
"Gong Zhang's original master once worked with the Germans and learned some knowledge. These craftsmanship were the contributions made by his master during his lifetime. Gong Zhang inherited it..."
Guan Zhiyong whispered, looking very satisfied.
The last time he came back from the machinery factory, he told the leaders of the steel factory about Yang Xiaotao's request. After a brief discussion, they started looking for people in the factory.
According to Yang Xiaotao's request, the first request was easy to find. There were many people with a lot of working experience in the steel plant. After some selection, we finally found a dozen people.
As for the second requirement, it is difficult to find knowledgeable people.
We had no choice but to stuff in a few students who had just been assigned. These young people entered the R&D department one by one, but their energy doubled.
After Guan Zhiyong finished speaking, he went to find that Yang Xiaotao continued to look through the information and had no intention of talking to him.
At this moment, Guan Zhiyong suddenly felt that Yang Xiaotao's expression was a bit serious.
