After the economy experienced stagnation, chaos, and even recession, China began a new round of infrastructure construction in the 1990s. In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the main infrastructure projects were heavy industries such as steel and minerals and water conservancy facilities. Nowadays, it has begun to strengthen urban and rural construction.
To put it bluntly, the urban and rural construction level of flower growers in the 1990s was too poor. Not to mention compared with Europe and the United States, it was not even comparable to the monkeys in Southeast Asia. Many people went abroad and found that not to mention Singapore, Bangkok, Thailand, was better than Shanghai.
Well constructed.
We need to build infrastructure and build buildings. Naturally, it cannot be a one- or two-story brick house, it cannot be a low earth wall, and it cannot be built by manpower to build a high-rise building tens to hundreds of meters - the famous Empire State Building in the United States, which is 381 meters tall.
meters, it was built in 1931. It relied on machinery.
In terms of building materials, China's steel and cement production has rapidly soared to the first place in the world, and the huge amount of building materials produced is basically consumed by itself. Similarly, construction machinery that replaces human labor also has a broad market.
Zhou Qingfeng considered that it was impossible to cover everything. He found that the countryside was in urgent need of cheap transportation vehicles, so he decided to start a modified motor tricycle. However, he accidentally discovered that the most basic mixer had not yet been widely used in the construction team.
A super simple drum-type concrete mixer, the loading, discharging, and water intake are all done manually. The maximum productivity is five cubic meters per hour. According to the standards of future generations, this is a garbage product that cannot be used anymore.
.
Ask the construction team contractor to pay for it, but he refuses. But he is willing to rent it. Zhou Qingfeng is still too young, so he would definitely buy it directly. But renting is also possible. Anyway, this thing is cheap and has high technical content.
Super low.
"Produce ten mobile simple concrete mixers for me." Zhou Qingfeng felt that this business could still be done. After all, the conversion of production to leasing would also be a GDP. He could even set up a company to carry out this business.
With the experience of the first mixer, the second mixer was produced in just two days. Zhou Qingfeng immediately arranged for a university lecturer to standardize the entire production process and record the standards in detail. Materials, working hours, testing, everything must be in place
specification.
Thinking about what products were shown in TV commercials every day in those days that met the 'ISO******' standard, Zhou Qingfeng heard it very well, but he didn't know it was serious. He didn't understand what 'ISO' was, but he followed the example
, this is still no problem.
"Nowadays, there are more and more people in the enterprise, and it is impossible for me to manage everyone. So I repeatedly emphasize the standards. From design, procurement, manufacturing, sales, maintenance, finance, and training, I must come up with a reasonable and operable
Standardize.
From now on, I will only look at the standards and not the people. Each type of work must have its own standards. Even if the standards are wrong, they must be followed before modifications. Those who can establish or modify the standards and put forward more reasonable opinions can get bonuses.
The wages of everyone in the factory are higher than elsewhere, and high wages should lead to high efficiency. Even the cleaning in the factory must be standardized. If you mess around with your work, I will definitely fire you."
Zhou Qingfeng is lazy, too lazy to do too many things internally. It is best for all employees to be like machines and work according to the set procedures.
When it comes to local methods, if there are no standards, just create your own. The process of establishing standards is also a learning process, which may be better than simply copying other people's standards.
Leaving the matter of setting standards to others to worry about, Zhou Qingfeng did not put the second mixer into the construction site of his own factory building renovation. Instead, he asked foremans from other construction teams in the county and city to drive and tow it to people to demonstrate and sell it - do you want to buy it?
Question, it can be rented.
Not only can it be rented, 'Shengguang Machinery' has also urgently trained a group of mixer operation and maintenance personnel. Each mixer is equipped with two people, ensuring that customers can use the equipment immediately after receiving it, and it can run continuously for 24 hours without any problems.
The customer is not God, the customer is the boss. If the boss is not satisfied, he will not get paid. This kind of service awareness is absolutely advanced, and it is much better than the zombie faces of enterprises and institutions.
In the urban area of Tianyang alone, more than a dozen construction sites have expressed their willingness to try out mixers from 'Shengguang Machinery'. There are anywhere from 100 to 80 large and small construction sites below the county level. Everyone is very interested in renting equipment.
'Shengguang Machinery' finally found a short, flat, and fast product that it could produce. The purchasing staff began to place orders with manufacturing companies in Tianyang City, purchasing thin steel plates, motors, gears, reducers, tires, and bearings. One piece per day was purchased.
Fast production speed.
A special leasing department was set up within the factory, and more than a hundred people were hired for simple training, and they would run around with the mixer in teams of two. The renter had to cover the food and accommodation of the service staff.
The rent is a bit expensive, but with a mixer, you can save at least a dozen ordinary workers' wages on the construction site, and you can also reduce the number of management personnel. The construction period is accelerated and the work efficiency is improved. Who doesn't like it?
'Shengguang Machinery' employs many unemployed young people in towns and cities, who can be happy with just forty yuan a month. Most of them only have primary school education and have few jobs to choose from. They are either unemployed at home or making trouble with nothing.
.
Forty yuan a month is a lot of money in the countryside. The parents of many families can't make that much money. When they hear that "Shengguang Machinery" is recruiting people, they grab sticks and ears to hold their children.
Come sign up and force them to go to the construction site.
Young people are completely unwilling to do this. What they yearn for is the city and a leisurely and prosperous life. But how did the British Industrial Revolution drive landless peasants into factories?
It’s better to avoid past mistakes and avoid future ones, and to treat illnesses and save lives.
The township police station took action. There was no need for any reason. It was a crime to be unemployed. For disobedient young people, they were arrested and imprisoned in the police station for a night, and they were tortured next to a urine bucket all night. They went to work in high spirits the next day.
This trick is very effective. Every one is arrested and punished. Today's police officers are no better than those in later generations who are unable to hit back or retaliate. With such efforts, the little gangsters running around in Nantou Township are almost extinct, and they are all for socialism.
Construction has gone on.
The township health center is close to the township primary school. Doctor Yu, who is familiar with Zhou Qingfeng, can see through the window that the dilapidated school is changing day by day. With a "loan" of tens of thousands provided by Zhou Qingfeng, the school was immediately renovated and groundbreaking was started.
Next to the broken teaching building, a new two-story building is under rapid construction. The floors are not high, and the foundation does not need to be very deep. Dozens of workers marked lines on the ground, and the excavation was completed in a week. What follows is really fast.
.
The construction site was under construction all day long, and steel, cement and other materials were brought in as if they were free of charge. Zhou Qingfeng's network of contacts built by selling electrical appliances was at work. Building materials were transported by waterway from the city, and there was never a shortage.
Dr. Yu's wife was also watching from the window, and asked in confusion: "Isn't it said that there is a shortage of steel bars now? It is rare for our town to buy several tons a year."
"Don't you even look at whose construction site this is? Whose building materials are missing? Who can be short of Mr. Zhou? He spends a lot of money and clears it. From the countryside to the city, who doesn't give him face?"
Doctor Yu turned to look at the repaired fan on the table, and then thought about the 'imported' bicycle that he had given to his in-laws. He sighed and said with conviction: "Young boy Zhou is indeed very capable, and he doesn't look like someone who can be produced in our hometown."
."
Zhou Qingfeng had arranged his work and was sitting side by side with Teacher Ma Jing in the grass at the back of the primary school. In front of him was the rapidly changing primary school teaching building - the school got a new building, the construction team made money, and he got tens of thousands of GDP.
Everyone is happy.
Teacher Ma smiled charmingly under the sunset. Zhou Qingfeng took the opportunity to secretly kiss her cheek, which made the female teacher blush and beat him hard. But after beating him, the female teacher still had to be held in his arms, struggling coyly.
.
The two of them were deeply in love. A certain threshold was touched in Zhou Qingfeng's mind, and he suddenly said, 'The GDP task has been greatly exceeded. Do you want to receive the reward and end it early?'
