After returning to the agricultural machinery factory from the steel factory, Qin Hai returned to the single building by himself, while Ning Mo and others went directly to the workshop and began to collect scrap steel and scrap iron, even the iron shavings and iron filings processed by the machine tool.
"Fat man, what do you want this for?"
The workers on the night shift in the metalworking workshop were very surprised when they saw Ningmo sweeping away the iron filings beside the machine tool as if picking up treasures, and carefully packing them in several different boxes. In the factory, scrap steel is sorted to make various
It is not uncommon for people to pick up things, and this can be regarded as relying on the people. But this kind of iron filings have always been removed as garbage, and I have never seen anyone even picking up such things.
Ning Mo chuckled and did not answer. Instead, he asked the questioner: "What kind of steel did you use for the parts you just processed?"
"What steel?" The other party was puzzled, "Probably No. 20 chromium steel, it says it on the material pick-up list."
"Well, No. 20 chromium steel..." Ning Mo carefully wrote the corresponding steel number on the paper box containing the iron filings. As for what the word chromium was written, no one knew.
Although Qingfeng Factory is just a county-level agricultural machinery factory, it has developed to a certain scale in the past 20 years. It produces various types of products and the steel grades involved are also complicated. For example, it manufactures small steel used on tractors.
Gears are made of No. 20 chromium alloy steel; for cold work mold processing, chromium 12 molybdenum vanadium steel is used. Ordinary workers do not care about the performance differences of these steels. They just go to the warehouse to collect the designated grades according to the process requirements.
steel and then processed.
Qin Hai plans to make a military dagger with outstanding performance for Mangu's nephew. First, he must find a suitable steel. To have excellent toughness, strength, wear resistance, etc., this steel must be some kind of alloy steel.
Qin Hai has a lot of formula information for various alloy steels in his mind. If you pick out any one, it will be much better than the common steels on the market today. To smelt this kind of alloy steel, you need to use chromium, molybdenum, and vanadium.
Nickel and other metal materials, but with Qin Hai's current status, it is very difficult to obtain these raw materials.
Fortunately, Qin Hai is an eclectic person. He thought that the various alloy steels currently used in factories contain these metal elements. If a variety of alloy steels can be cleverly combined and smelted in one place, what will be obtained is
The kind of ultra-high-strength steel he needs.
With this idea, he assigned Ningmo and others the task of collecting scrap steel and iron filings in the workshop, and asked them to clearly record the steel types and models of these scrap steels for preparation. Ningmo and Miao Lei went there respectively
He went to the metalworking workshop and foundry workshop to look for scrap steel. Yu Haitao, a warehouse statistician, took advantage of his position to collect scrap turning tools, gears and other items recycled in the warehouse. These items also contained the rare metals Qin Hai needed.
Qin Hai did not go with Ning Mo and others to collect scrap metal. This was not what he was good at, and there was no need to waste his time on it. He returned to the single building alone, entered his room, took out the white paper, and began to
Several kinds of ordnance that I thought of were turned into processing drawings.
"Duk duk duk, duk duk duk." Someone knocked on the door outside, followed by Wang Xiaochen's voice: "Xiao Qin, are you back?"
Qin Hai stood up and opened the door for Wang Xiaochen, let her into the room, and asked with a smile: "Is something wrong, Xiaochen?"
Wang Xiaochen was holding a thermos bottle in his hand and said, "I brought an extra bottle of boiled water for you to use. You left with Ning Mo and the others as soon as you got off work. You must not have opened the water, right?"
"Thank you so much Xiaochen." Qin Hai quickly took the hot water bottle and thanked Wang Xiaochen.
Wang Xiaochen said: "By the way, there is one more thing I want to inform you. After get off work today, Section Chief Xiang, Section Chief Xiao and Section Chief Leng came to see you. I don't know what it was. Section Chief Xiang said, called You have to go to work in the foundry shop on time tomorrow."
Qin Haidao: "I originally had to go to work in the foundry workshop. Isn't this unnecessary? However, I know what they came to see me for. It must be the high-frequency induction cladding welding thing I told Section Chief Leng today."
"They didn't say." Wang Xiaochen said. After saying that, she lowered her voice a few degrees and asked: "Xiao Qin, have you heard that our factory is going to change production again."
The contents of the mid-level cadres meeting in the afternoon had already spread throughout Qingfeng Factory before the night passed. There are only 200 cadres and employees in Qingfeng Factory, and more than 30 of them are middle-level cadres. Each middle-level cadre has three or five
A good employee friend came out from the meeting and naturally wanted to reveal the contents of the meeting to his friends. As a result of more than 30 people disclosing it to the outside world at the same time, the news naturally spread to every household.
"Transfer? Change to what? What does this have to do with me?" Qin Hai asked in confusion. He was taken away by Ning Mo and the others as soon as he got off work today. He had just come back now, so naturally he didn't know what happened at the middle-level cadre meeting.
of.
In addition, he only reported to Qingfeng Factory yesterday. The past grievances and grievances of Qingfeng Factory are also quite distant things to him. In his opinion, whatever Qingfeng Factory is willing to produce, that is the factory's responsibility.
What does it have to do with the things that the president wants to think about? He does have a lot of knowledge in materials and technology, but it also depends on whether the factory needs it. If the factory doesn't need his knowledge, then he will simply stay silent.
They go and do private work to make money.
Wang Xiaochen obviously planned to have a good chat with Qin Hai about the production change, because from her perspective, she believed that the rise and fall of Qingfeng Factory was directly related to her own interests, so she had been worried about this matter. She felt that Qin Hai was an educated man
She was a person with no pretensions and was willing to communicate with her, an ordinary flaw detector, so she wanted to hear Qin Hai's opinion on this matter.
"Xiao Qin, you don't know." Wang Xiaochen sat down on Qin Hai's bed and said: "Our factory has changed its production this time, and the change has been very dramatic. Director Wei means to completely abandon the production of agricultural machinery and switch to the production of washing machines.
"
"Convert to the production of washing machines?" Qin Hai saw Wang Xiaochen sitting down and knew that she was planning to have a long talk with him, so he also sat down on the chair and listened patiently to Wang Xiaochen's story. When Wang Xiaochen said that Qingfeng Factory planned to convert the production of washing machines, Qin Hai couldn't help but
He laughed: "Wei Baolin's head was kicked by a donkey? How long has it been since this happened? If you still switch to washing machines, isn't this asking for your own death?"
"Really?" Wang Xiaochen looked at Qin Hai with wide eyes and asked in confusion: "Isn't it bad to switch to washing machines?"
Qin Haidao: "It would have been a good choice to switch to washing machine production three years earlier. Of course, the premise is that our factory can solve the supply problem of motors, plastics and other raw materials. Today, washing machines are already so popular, so switching to washing machine production at this time
Washing machines are a dead end. Do you know how many prefectures and cities across the country are building their own washing machine factories?"
"Ah!" Wang Xiaochen was stunned by Qin Hai's words, "You are saying that if our factory switches to washing machines, it will definitely fail, right?"
Qin Haidao: "No one can say for sure whether it will fail, but this is indeed not a good decision. According to my impression, in the past two years, a large number of various home appliance companies have been launched across the country, including televisions, washing machines, and refrigerators.
Wait, there will be a surplus soon. Our factory has no advantage in this regard. If there is a surplus in the market, the first to collapse will naturally be factories like ours."
"Is that so?" Wang Xiaochen thought thoughtfully, "Today we heard middle-level cadres come back from a meeting and talk about switching to washing machines. Everyone said everything. Some people think that making washing machines is more profitable than making agricultural machinery, and some people think that making washing machines is more profitable than making agricultural machinery.
I think our factory may not be able to make a washing machine, but no one thinks like you."
Qin Hai smiled slightly and did not explain. At that time, China was still a country with a shortage of materials. People only thought about whether they could make things, and never considered whether they could sell them.
In later generations, when materials were highly abundant, selling things became more important than making things.
Qin Hai was able to plan ahead and think of the crisis of oversupply in the washing machine market simply because he was a time traveler from later generations. If he had not had such foresight, he would probably have limited his thinking to production capacity just like the cadres and workers of Qingfeng Factory.
on aspects of the issue.
"Qin Hai, please tell Director Wei your thoughts and tell him not to build a washing machine." Wang Xiaochen pleaded. She was really worried about the future of the factory. The reason Qin Hai said was that she
She felt that if Qin Hai explained these principles to Wei Baolin, Wei Baolin would definitely realize the risks of switching to washing machines and change this wrong decision.
Qin Hai thought to himself: Wang Xiaochen is only a 20-year-old girl after all, and it is too simple to think about the problem. Wei Baolin and the others have not paid attention to the risks of producing washing machines. They insist on launching this idea. I am afraid that it is more of a blind move. This is not
It can be changed by others just talking about it.
Thinking of this, Qin Hai shook his head and said: "I am a soft-spoken person. It seems inappropriate to go to the factory director to talk about this kind of thing, right? Section Chief Xiang and Section Chief Xiao are all experienced people. Couldn't they have thought of this?
?”
Wang Xiaochen said: "I don't know if they have thought of this, but I talked to several masters about this today, and none of them mentioned this. Only you, Xiao Qin, thought of it. Oh, if it is true,
As you, Xiao Qin, said, our factory will be in dire straits."
Qin Haidao: "Meat eaters, think about it. This kind of thing is not something we small workers can worry about."
Wang Xiaochen was also a little depressed. She stood up and walked out, saying, "Well, okay... Xiao Qin, you should go to bed early."
"Okay, Xiaochen, walk slowly." Qin Hai said.

I had a meeting yesterday and came home very late. A friend who is always reliable recommended a new book called "The Birth of an Entertainment Empire" on Q, saying it was very similar to my book.
After reading it, I thought it was really well written. Many entertainment-themed novels start with killing all directions, the supporting characters have zero IQ, and the protagonist is full of bastard spirit. This book writes about the world of normal people, and the human feelings and sophistication are all from the normal world.

In fact, what I want to say is that I am obsessed with reading... I forgot to post this morning's update. Students who are obsessed with reading can click the link below.
