Chapter 1919 The end of the inspection and the beginning of the prologue
Yang Mingzhi's easy-going answer shocked Umov greatly.
Why? Today is the second day after he returned. After this urgent inspection of the factory, he had a good impression. It seemed that everything had been resolved and the factory would start operation in 36 hours.
"You...were you too hasty?" Umov asked cautiously, "There are still many unresolved issues in the factory, right?"
"That's true." Yang Mingzhi shrugged. "Nothing is in the way. I feel that Factory 834 is fully prepared for production, and it must be the same for Factory 835. There are still some small things that need to be resolved, and the personnel arrangements are still there.
We need to plan more carefully. They are all small things, and I think everything will be solved in one day tomorrow."
Umov suddenly felt for the first time that Yang Mingzhi might be unreliable.
The reason was too straightforward. Yang Mingzhi's decision was extremely hasty. Umov couldn't believe it. There was only a small group of key personnel in a factory, and the rest were all students who had just graduated from technical schools.
With a small backbone, the factory can start production in just seven days after the personnel are in place?
Umov further suggested: "Comrade Berekov, I agree with your enthusiasm for work. But you should not be too anxious."
"I thank you for your kindness, but I have made up my mind. Think about it, what will it be in two days?"
"Huh?" Umov pinched his fingers, "It's October 19th, a very ordinary day. What's wrong?"
"It's Monday!" Yang Mingzhi said loudly: "We start production on the first day of the week. After working for six consecutive days, we complete a standard work week, and then conduct a work summary on Sunday. That's what I think, starting from next Monday
Starting, factories 834 and 835 must be put into production. When the time comes, the factories must be on track. This is a combat mission, and I must complete it!"
When Yang Mingzhi said this, Umov somewhat understood.
"So you're stuck at this point in time?"
"Of course! Whether you are managing an army or a factory, my management experience tells me that it is very important to seize this time. You don't have to worry. When the factory starts production, I will be here to supervise you wholeheartedly. All you need to do next is
Do one thing well."
"What's the matter?!" Umov asked urgently.
"Just like delivering goods to other arsenals, starting from tomorrow, supply me with all production raw materials. Even a large amount of high-quality beech wood and steel, as well as some other alloys, you just need to assign tasks to your relevant subordinates, and they will
I will do it. Tomorrow I will go to the factory to make final preparations. On the 19th, the production line will be started."
It sounds like the development of the matter is that simple, and there will be no twists and turns. Umov saw that the young general had great confidence, as if his factory could produce hundreds of assault rifles every day once it started operating.
Rifles, waiting in line to be transported to the army's shooting range for calibration.
Now that the matter has come to this, doubts are unnecessary.
Umov nodded: "According to your decision, I can give the order. I hope there won't be any setbacks. Then we should go to the 835 Factory next door to have a look."
"Okay, let's go..."
The current configurations of the two factories are almost identical. Yang Mingzhi saw roughly the same lathe equipment and other small equipment.
The workers are also composed of a small group of technical backbones poached from other factories and a large number of newly graduated technical school students.
Yang Mingzhi stayed in the two factories for almost an afternoon. It was not until the sun went down that the inspection work was basically completed.
The time was actually not too late, just because Novosibirsk was three hours ahead of Moscow. It was only five o'clock in the afternoon, and the sky was already full of stars.
There was also an advantage at night. Yang Mingzhi saw that all the lights in the factory were turned on, especially the road between the two factories, where the street lights on both sides were lit.
The snow enhanced the brightness of the street lights, which was even a bit dazzling.
Yang Mingzhi stepped on the snow. Before leaving, he called the two factory directors to his side.
"Now the workers have returned to their dormitories to rest. I'm afraid this will be the last leisurely night for all of them." Yang Mingzhi said in particular, "Comrades, I have decided that after the final preparations are made tomorrow, Starting next Monday, the two factories will start operating at the same time. Our focus at this stage is the production of assault rifles."
Andrenov confirmed that the 834 factory he is responsible for will be the absolute main force in future production. Now he maintains absolute confidence and promised: "You can rest assured that all our employees will maintain abundant energy and great fighting enthusiasm. can give you a satisfactory result.”
"We are the same," Antonov said.
"Very good, I believe in your strength. Now is not the time to chant slogans. What we need after all is the finished product." Yang Mingzhi sighed, "Although I don't think it is that difficult to produce the firearms I developed, I I'm just a little worried. There are nearly 800 people in the two factories. It is not easy to maintain such a huge group to carry out complex operations. After all, this is not an army, but a factory. Each department is engaged in different work, and each process They are all interlocked, and if there is a problem with one of the reliefs, the structure will cause obstruction of the entire system."
"I completely understand what you mean." Andrenov nodded, "So I will supervise their work carefully, and if there is a problem, I will go there to solve it as soon as possible. I can guarantee that in the area I am responsible for, no problem will be solved." Any problems will arise.”
Both people have exactly the same attitude, they are very confident and confident about the future.
Confidence is of course a good thing. Yang Mingzhi now feels that they are already a bit conceited. After all, the two factory directors have no experience in supervising the production of firearms.
Yang Mingzhi nodded and said: "I trust you, but I may stay in the factory for a long time in the future. Various problems will definitely be exposed in the initial period. I believe in your momentum, but I cannot fully trust the abilities of all workers. Tomorrow I will come back, and I will bring a large number of production design drawings, as well as professional technicians from the design bureau. Since the two factories currently produce the same products, I think it is enough to set up a process department."
Yang Mingzhi held his chin and continued to mutter thoughtfully: "There must be a process department dedicated to solving problems during the processing. In this way, my subordinates will play a major role. I will also organize a full-time inspection department to Arrange a specialist in each production link to conduct the first inspection, and set up a general assembly inspection office in the final assembly workshop. Maybe those brothers from the design bureau will have to come over."
To be honest, Yang Mingzhi took it for granted at first.
The so-called joint production between the two factories means that although each department is mainly composed of new employees, there will probably be no major problems when they are processing and producing. It is enough for you to take a look at the final assembly after it is completed.
Nowadays, factories must become formal. In order to ensure the final quality of products, they must not only install a full-time craftsman to supervise the workers' operating procedures. They also need an inspector to ensure that all parts meet the standards.
Yang Mingzhi looked carefully and quickly, and deeply felt the lack of thermal resources.
Don't look at the fact that there are as many as 800 workers in the two factories under your command. You have to select experienced people to serve as grassroots leaders. Currently, you can only select a small number of key positions such as inspectors. Therefore, in the inspection position, only a small number of people can be selected.
I'm afraid that just a small group of people will inspect the work of hundreds of people, and the work will be equally distributed to everyone. The pressure will be too great.
As he thought about it, Yang Mingzhi couldn't help but have a look of worry on his face, and slapped his face hard with a pair of big hands.
"Comrade Berekov, what's wrong with you? You suddenly feel out of sorts?" Umov asked with concern.
"Ah! Nothing's wrong, I'm just a little worried."
"Huh? Don't you have a high opinion of the situation in the factory? What's wrong?"
"Alas..." Yang Mingzhi sighed and looked at Umov, "The work should continue step by step. You give the logistics department all the production raw materials we need for our work, and they will start transporting them tomorrow morning. For the time being, they will all arrive
In the warehouse of Factory 834."
"Okay, this is no problem."
"I will bring a large number of people from the design bureau over tomorrow and I will assign tasks to them. Hopefully, after the final preparations tomorrow, production can start stably."
"Of course." Umov blessed.
"I hope so. By the way, Comrade Governor, I have another question."
"Please speak."
Yang Mingzhi also suddenly thought of something. When inspecting the factory today, he always felt that there was one missing person around him.
"Comrade Governor, where are the comrades from the military region assigned to the factory?"
"Oh! Tell me about this." Umov slapped his forehead, "Oh, I forgot to tell you. Comrade Commander told me that they will only send representatives when the factory can officially operate."
"Very rigorous." Yang Mingzhi nodded.
"But looking at your current situation, I think only one representative is enough."
"Is it because of the special situation of the 835 factory? It doesn't matter." Yang Mingzhi shrugged, "When there are too many people, things often become complicated. In fact, I only need one liaison officer. You can tell Comrade Commander that I only need one
Representative, I hope this person is smart enough and capable of doing things seriously. Perhaps, I can contact him personally, after all, the headquarters is also in the city."
"Let me explain it," Umov said. "You are very busy at work and have a lot of pressure on your shoulders. I don't need to trouble you about this matter."
"Okay, let's just say goodbye?" After that, Yang Mingzhi looked at his watch and said, "It's not very late yet. I'll go back now and arrange work for the comrades in the design bureau as soon as possible."
"Ah! Are you so anxious?" Umov patted Yang Mingzhi on the shoulder again, "Young comrade, I want to entertain you again in my cafeteria tonight."
"drink wine?!"
"Yes! You are the hero of New Siberia. As the governor, of course I want to formally invite you."
Dinner party, another dinner party...
Yang Mingzhi shook his head: "Thank you, if you decide to invite me to a dinner, let's do it after my factory has stabilized. I am not a greedy person, I am what you call a doer. I will eat whatever you want tonight.
A piece of dry bread is enough; the rest of the time I must devote myself to work."
Seeing that Yang Mingzhi's attitude was so resolute, Umov was too embarrassed to say anything. He was afraid that if he tried to persuade others to stay, would he be considered lazy by others? That would not be a good thing.
Yang Mingzhi got into the car and, together with Grishenko who was accompanying him, went to the Pripyat Weapons Design Bureau on the campus of the Academy of Sciences.
It’s dinner time, what’s next tonight?
I'm afraid it must be beetroot beef stew, as well as black bread and white flour steamed buns. All in all, they are very homely and friendly delicacies.
The coldness of the night could not erode a fiery heart. Yang Mingzhi came back after a long journey. His eagerness really made Yang Tao doubt. It was said that her husband went to inspect a subordinate factory. Was he stimulated by something?
After dinner, Yang Mingzhi didn't care to chat with his wife anymore and ordered all designers to gather in the big office.
The atmosphere became tense, but everyone could see from the director's eyes his expectations and even desires for the future.
Yang Mingzhi stood in the most conspicuous position, and the others lined up, waiting for his orders.
With three violent slaps, Yang Mingzhi attracted everyone's attention.
"Okay, comrades! You all know what I did in the afternoon. Yes! I went to inspect our subordinate factories. Now I have made a decision that starting from next Monday, the factory will start running."
As soon as this statement came out, the team became restless.
Because everyone has already estimated that as long as the factory starts construction, the design bureau will definitely send personnel to supervise it. It will be a very honorable job. Firstly, it will contribute to the motherland, and secondly, it will be a qualification for a better future for oneself.
Therefore, everyone couldn't help but whisper among themselves, hoping to get further instructions from the director.
Yang Mingzhi clapped his hands again: "Please be quiet! Seeing your performance, I believe you attach great importance to this matter. Very good, so I will assign some personnel to be stationed in the factory. We must set up a process department to solve the problem of workers' production
All kinds of troubles in the process. At this stage..."
Yang Mingzhi gave Popov a gesture: "Bring over the roster."
Russians generally don't like to mess around. Yang Mingzhi got the roster and read out the list of his chosen people straightforwardly.
Who exactly shoulders this important responsibility?
Among them, the young Dobrov is highly anticipated. Everyone knows that this person is the key trainee of the director. The other one is not new either. He is Kalashnikov, a talent specially poached by the director.
In addition to the people, it is not surprising to think about their selection, because they are all the director's old subordinates, senior craftsmen who have followed the director as early as the swamp period. Of course, these people not only have qualifications, but also their academic qualifications.
Very high.
Yang Mingzhi directly selected ten people. They broke away from the queue and stood alone in a row.
Looking into their eyes, Yang Mingzhi believed that his choices were very correct.
He clapped his hands at the end: "Comrades, we will now set up a small organization of the Pripyat Weapons Design Bureau in the factory office. You actually have two major tasks at this stage. First, supervise and solve workers' processing problems.
