Chapter 362 The Road to the Water Conservancy Machinery Factory (2)
"Haha! Doesn't it feel a bit fanciful?
In fact, even after I thought about it, I couldn’t help but laugh!
Because this idea is so unrealistic! How could there be such technology in this world?
But then I thought about it, why is it impossible?
Before Edison invented the electric light, and before Nikola Tesla invented alternating current, many people thought this was a fantasy!
And the mobile phones we use now, a few decades ago, many people felt that this was a fantasy!
Therefore, technological innovation, invention and creation often start from fantasy!
Lao Wu, do it boldly! Think boldly!
Don't be afraid of wasting money, and don't be afraid of wasting time!
We start with imitation, imitating the manufacturing of hydraulic hoists, imitating the manufacturing of winch hoists, and imitating the manufacturing of various new gates.
In the end, achieve independent innovation!
If you want someone, I will give it to you; if you want money, I will give it to you!
I just want to ask, do you dare to do it?" Yu Qingyang stood up from the workbench, looked at Wu Yu and other leaders, and asked seriously.
"I dare!"
Wu Yu and other leaders were also stirred up by Yu Qingyang, and their blood boiled. They stood up straight and shouted loudly.
"Mr. Yu, do you still need to imitate the sewage treatment equipment?" Wu Yubiao finished and asked weakly.
"Haha, yes! But can you do it?" Yu Qingyang smiled and patted Wu Yu on the shoulder, "I sent out a sigh of relief and also gave you an ideological education lesson!
I also hope that you can develop world-class sewage treatment equipment, but that is not realistic!
Let’s focus on the present first, understand the gates and hoists first, and wait until you can independently develop new products.”
It would be more convenient to study sewage treatment plant equipment and hand it over to a water conservancy machinery factory than to find a few universities to fund their research.
In the last life, Yu Qingyang once mentioned this when chatting with his teacher. According to what he said, several domestic universities are engaged in research in this area.
In fact, the country has been conducting relevant research on sewage treatment-related topics since 1992. However, due to insufficient research funds, the progress is not very satisfactory.
Even if there are research results, they have just been researched and are already many years behind foreign countries.
The reason why my teacher resigned from the school actually had this reason.
Instead of running around in schools, begging grandpa and grandma for some scientific research funds, it is better to go directly to the company, use your knowledge, and make some small innovations and inventions based on the company's original sewage treatment equipment. A little can make a lot more.
At that time, the teacher was very proud to tell Yu Qingyang that the current domestic sewage treatment technology has reached the international leading level, and the sewage treatment equipment made in China can be said to be the most advanced sewage treatment equipment in the world.
“We have also achieved new results in sales! We have established a sales department and go to various construction companies to sell our gate hoists!
Next, we are going to participate in the Water Conservancy and Hydropower Technology and Equipment Exhibition and bring our products to the exhibition!" Wu Yu continued to introduce to Yu Qingyang in the workshop.
When Yu Qingyang came to the Water Conservancy Machinery Factory, he rarely went to the office. He usually stayed in the workshop, watching and listening to reports, and occasionally chatting with the workers.
"Having this attitude is good! It deserves praise!
However, if you go to the construction company to promote, you are worshiping the wrong temple and offering the wrong incense!" Yu Qingyang stopped and looked at Wu Yu and other leaders and said.
"Our water conservancy machinery and equipment has its limitations and its scope of application is relatively narrow! If we now have a rich product line and can produce gates and hoists of all specifications, then it doesn't matter! As long as we have a good relationship with the construction companies and let them use us
Just use the gate hoist!
However, this is precisely what we cannot do! The models we can produce are relatively single and there are not many varieties! So at this time, if you go to the construction unit, it is better to go to the design institute!
Let the design institute design according to our product specifications when designing!
Who has the final say on whether to use steel gates, cast iron gates or concrete gates, what specifications of gates to use, and what type of hoists to use? Design Institute!
Therefore, the most important thing for you right now is not to go to construction companies to promote sales, but to go to design institutes and ask them to give priority to the gate hoists produced by our factory when designing!"
"Mr. Yu, we are not familiar with the design institute!" Wu Yu said with a bitter smile.
In the past few years, the efficiency of the provincial water conservancy machinery plant has declined and it is teetering on the edge of bankruptcy. This has also resulted in the low status of the water conservancy machinery plant in the water conservancy system.
Units like design institutes have relatively high thresholds, especially design institutes in the industry. Their status in the water conservancy system is second only to owners, so it is understandable that they look down on water conservancy machinery factories.
"Well! Secretary Zhenyao of our group company used to work in the Policy Research Office of the Water Resources Department. Before working in the Policy Research Office, he also worked in the Planning Department for many years. People in our provincial water conservancy system, whether it is the municipal bureau below
, even Secretary Zhenyao of the Design Institute is very familiar with it!
You can ask Secretary Zhenyao to help pull the strings!" Yu Qingyang did not take the matter personally, but smiled and gave Wu Yu advice.
Zheng Zhenyao has worked in the Department of Water Resources for thirty years. Although he was not promoted due to various reasons, his accumulated contacts cannot be underestimated. There is no leader of the water conservancy system in various cities in the province that he is not familiar with.
This is also related to the closure of the water conservancy system. Promotions and transfers in the water conservancy system are basically internal circulation, that is, the bureau's administrative posts are occasionally transferred in from outside.
For example, Director Su was transferred from the Provincial Department of Agriculture.
"Thank you, Mr. Yu!"
"Don't be polite to me. What I need is not your politeness! I need results! This water conservancy machinery factory has more than one-third of our family's shares. You work hard and make more money, which is the best for me.
Thanks!" Yu Qingyang and Wu Yu joked.
"hehe!"
"Ha ha!"
"Hahaha!" The leaders of the accompanying machinery factory laughed cooperatively.
"I also want to make a request to you! Our group is conducting a seminar on refined management of construction sites. Is your machinery factory also organizing a seminar on refined management of factory workshops?
Look, what kind of chaos is this workshop in?
All kinds of tools are thrown everywhere! All kinds of raw materials are piled up everywhere!
It must be said that there was no management before! What are the rows of cabinets and shelves on the wall used for?
Why are those cabinets and shelves unused? Are things just thrown away like that?
Your current problem is not only that your products are single and your competitiveness is not high, but also that your management cannot keep up, resulting in serious waste.
That's what I said, you'll lose money if you can't sell it, you'll lose money if you sell it!" When Yu Qingyang said this, his tone was very calm, but it made Wu Yu and others blush.
"Mr. Yu, I..."
"Okay, no need to explain! I'm not criticizing you. This didn't happen in a day, it's a bad habit that has been formed for a long time!
You don’t need to be busy reviewing anything, use your review energy on how to improve management!” Yu Qingyang waved his hand, interrupting Wu Yu’s words of review.
In the past, every time Yu Qingyang or other leaders came, the machinery factory would carry out general cleaning to prepare for the inspection.
This time, Wu Yu was a little eager to show off her merits and forgot to arrange a general cleaning.
Yu Qingyang understood this situation very well. It was just like a construction site, which was usually messy. As soon as a leader came to inspect, he hurriedly cleaned up the site, hung banners, and planted colorful flags.
Therefore, Yu Qingyang is not very angry. Management is never easy.
Make corrections step by step.
Just as Yu Qingyang finished speaking, there was a commotion outside.
Seven or eight people came in carrying a stretcher.
Yu Qingyang turned to look at Wu Yu and asked with his eyes, what is going on?
"Yu...Mr. Yu, my...my name is Liu...Liu Yongjun!" The old man on the stretcher was helped up and said to Yu Qingyang with difficulty.
"Mr. Yu, Liu Yongjun is a retired worker from the machinery factory and participated in the construction of Wolongshan Reservoir!" Wu Yu quickly introduced the old man to Yu Qingyang in a low voice.
"Which song is this from?"
"Liu Yongjun has two sons and a daughter!
The eldest son took over the job in the machine factory, and the daughter also took care of her and arranged to work in the machine factory.
Therefore, his youngest son can no longer be taken care of. He graduated from technical school last year and has been unemployed at home!
This year the company has introduced a new employment policy. For job placement, technical school students must first go to Africa to participate in three-year construction aid.
Liu Yongjun has terminal cancer and doesn't want his son to go so far away. He's worried that once he goes, he won't be able to see him again!
So I have been making trouble, even if I want to join the company, I don’t want to go to Africa to aid construction!" Wu Yu introduced the situation.
"Nonsense!" Yu Qingyang changed his face and cursed, looked at the person carrying Liu Yongjun and asked: "Who are you Liu Yongjun's people?"
"That's Liu Yongjun's eldest son Liu Jiancong, that's his son-in-law, his nephew, his son's friends and classmates, and so on!"
"Liu Jiancong, you have a good heart, but you can't bear it!
Your old father is already like this, how can you bear it?
Do you know what your nature is?
Are you trying to force me into the palace?" Yu Qingyang looked at Liu Jiancong and asked.
"Mr. Yu, I..."
"What am I? Take your old father back immediately now, how to treat him, how to treat him!
If you have any difficulties, you can report them to the company through normal channels, but neither I nor the company will accept this kind of forced abortion!" Yu Qingyang said sternly.
With the Liu family's approach, most leaders, no matter how unhappy they feel, will take care of them appropriately.
Because this kind of forced uterus is very embarrassing for the leader. If you don't take care of him, he will be said to be unkind. Take care of him, but you won't be reconciled.
"Yu...Mr. Yu!" Liu Yongjun was a little excited and stretched out his hand.
"Mr. Liu, I know about your son's matter, and the company will consider it as a whole.
You go back first and treat me how you want!" Yu Qingyang bent down, held Liu Yongjun's hand and whispered comfort.
After saying that, he stood up and waved his hands to Liu Jianjun, indicating that they should seize the time to carry the person away.
Under Yu Qingyang's stern gaze, Liu Jiancong and his brother-in-law had no choice but to carry Liu Yongjun away.
"You go back and tell Liu Yongjun's family that his youngest son must help with the construction in accordance with company regulations!
However, considering Liu Yongjun's actual situation, we can postpone going to Africa to aid construction!" After watching Liu Yongjun leave, Yu Qingyang explained to Wu Yu.
"Yes, I will notify Liu Jiancong later!" Wu Yu nodded.
No matter what the situation is, it cannot be used as an excuse not to go to Africa to aid construction.
Today you say you have special circumstances, and tomorrow he will also have special circumstances, and everyone has special circumstances, so how can the company's policies be implemented?
Of course, considering the specific situation, it still needs to be treated on a case-by-case basis.
In Xiang Liu Yongjun's situation, it was obvious that he was about to reach the end of his life. It was understandable that he didn't want his youngest son to be by his side when he died.
Therefore, although Yu Qingyang did not reply to them face to face, after they left, he immediately made a decision to postpone participating in African aid construction.
It's just a temporary delay. After finishing Liu Yongjun's funeral affairs, he still has to go. This cannot be changed.
"Mr. Yu, you see it's already noon, why don't you have something to eat in our factory cafeteria?" Wu Yu invited in a low voice.
"Okay! I haven't tried the food in your cafeteria yet, so I'll give it a try!
If it doesn't taste good, don't blame me for losing your temper and criticizing you!" Yu Qingyang said with a smile.
Yu Qingyang had something that he had been thinking about how to tell Wu Yu and the others.
Now Wu Yu invited him to stay for dinner, and Yu Qingyang just followed the trend and stayed.
"Old Wu, don't add any extra vegetables, you can just eat what you usually eat!"
"Mr. Yu, how can this be done?"
"What's wrong? Your food standards are set by the group company!
I often eat in the canteen at the group's side, and the food is pretty good. If it's not good here, there's something wrong with you, Old Wu!" Yu Qingyang pointed at Wu Yu with a smile.
The canteen invested by Huayu is fully subsidized and buffet-style. Each meal has more than a dozen meat and vegetable dishes for the employees to choose from.
It was now more than half an hour before dinner started, and Yu Qingyang followed Wu Yu and the others to the office.
“I looked at the workshop, although there are still problems of one kind or another!
But despite all the flaws, I can still feel the changes in your machinery factory!
At the very least, I can see that the mental outlook of the employees is different!
I am motivated and proactive.
It’s just that the workshop is too sloppy!” Yu Qingyang said to everyone in the conference room with a smile.
"Mr. Yu's criticism is that we have been busy researching the production of new products recently, so we have neglected hygiene issues!" Wu Yu hurriedly reviewed herself.
“I have been thinking about an issue recently, which is the positioning of our water conservancy machinery factory and the positioning of electric bicycles!
Nowadays, electric bicycle production is only used as a workshop of the water conservancy machinery factory!
It has great constraints on the development of electric bicycles!
So I considered making electric bicycles independent and establishing Huayu Electric Bicycle Manufacturing Co., Ltd. as a first-level subsidiary of Huayu Investment."
"Mr. Yu, how can this be done? Electric bicycles are the hard work of many workers and cadres in our factory!
Just take it from us!
Not only am I unwilling, but the employees of our factory will also be emotional!" Wu Yu objected before Yu Qingyang could finish.
As early as when Yu Qingyang said that he would build an electric bicycle industrial park covering 10,000 acres, Wu Yu had a bad premonition.
