Sail across the sea

Chapter 132 The Polyester Device Is Not So Delicate

Zheng Linong looked at Gao Fan with obvious admiration.

My eyes really saw the right person, this half-grown child is a talent to make.

Just as Gao Fan guessed, Zheng Linong came to Shuinan this time for the maintenance of Huanglan Chemical Plant's equipment.

The Huanglan Chemical Factory wanted to keep a Japanese engineer in the factory, and the labor costs alone would cost more than 1000 million yen a year. Huanghua had to report this matter to the Chemical Industry Agency and apply for the relevant expense quota.And the Shuinan Chemical Industry Department must also report to the Ministry of Chemical Industry, because the amount is not small, even if the Chemical Industry Department can get it, it must report to the higher-level department.

More than 1000 million yen, equivalent to 10 yuan, is acceptable compared to the investment of nearly 6 million yuan in Huanglan Chemical Plant.The Shuinan Provincial Department of Chemical Industry used some spring and autumn tricks to whitewash the money as normal maintenance expenses. At first glance, there is nothing wrong with it.

But Zheng Linong is an experienced person, and he was thinking about the introduction of the polyester plant. From the report of the Shuinan Chemical Industry Department, he immediately saw the problem, so he took advantage of this opportunity to go to the south to make a special trip. Etio, understand a fact.

Cao Yangcheng and Chai Huanhua's answers did not satisfy Zheng Linong.But he could also understand the concerns of the grassroots, and did not give Cao, Chai and others a negative evaluation because of this.

In Zheng Linong's view, the main problem of these two people is that they lack responsibility. At the same time, they are too superstitious about foreign technology and lack the courage to challenge. This is not uncommon among grassroots cadres.

With the passage of time, the creed of many cadres is not to seek meritorious service, but to seek no faults.The country entrusts you with such a large factory, and you can guarantee safe production, which is the greatest contribution to the country.If you insist on innovation, if the imported equipment breaks down, even if the country does not hold you accountable, wouldn’t your colleagues and competitors seize this opportunity to blackmail you?

It costs only 10 yuan a year to hire a Japanese engineer here, which is not a lot of money, so it's like spending money to buy peace.

When Japanese engineers were on site, if something happened to the equipment, even if it delayed production for a week or two and caused millions of losses, the factory would have a reason to blame it.

You see, what can we do about things that the Japanese can't handle?
Pan Yue proposed to let the personnel of Shuinan Chemical Equipment Installation Company solve the problem of polymerization kettle maintenance, and Zheng Linong supported it.But on the one hand, Chai Huanhua and the others still had concerns, and he shouldn't intervene forcefully; on the other hand, Pan Yue was only a deputy director after all, and Zheng Linong still wanted to save face for Cao Yangcheng and Chai Huanhua, so he suppressed the matter.

It was inconvenient for him to say anything at the meeting, but after the meeting, he still had to think about it.

After eating and returning to the room, he discussed with Wu Zhefu and came up with some ideas.When he was about to send Wu Zhefu back to rest, Zheng Linong suddenly thought of Gao Fan, and vaguely felt that this Gao Fan might be able to come up with some different ideas, so he asked Wu Zhefu to call Gao Fan over.

As soon as Gao Fan opened his mouth, he said that Pan Yue's suggestion was correct and urgently needed. This conclusion was even more radical than the result of the discussion between Zheng Linong and Wu Zhefu, and it also made Zheng Linong's eyes shine.

"You mean, if we follow Director Pan's suggestion and invite people from Shuinan Hua'an Company to help dismantle the elbow, it can promote the localization of our polyester plant?" Zheng Linong concluded for Gao Fan.

Gao Fan said: "Actually, polyester devices are not so delicate, or in other words, all chemical process devices are not so delicate. The basic principle is in place, whichever pipe is thicker or which pipe is thinner, it can for theoretical calculations.

"The new ammonium-to-urine modification plan proposed by our Canghai factory is a major modification based on the original plan of the Ministry of Chemical Industry, but as long as it does not violate the basic principles, how much impact will this modification have?"

Wu Zhefu interjected: "Huang Hua's polymer bend pipe, I learned from the comrades in their technical department when I was eating, that there are still some special features in the design. There is a certain reason why yellowish operators dare not dismantle it."

Gao Fan said: "This is actually a trick made by the Japanese. A good industrial design should be as simple as possible to reduce the difficulty of maintenance. How can there be any reason to design a pipe so that it cannot be disassembled?
"There are two reasons why they do this. One is that the Japanese are very stubborn by nature. Once a design is proposed, they will not change it easily. Even if they think it is not good, they dare not change it casually."

"How is this possible?" Wu Zhefu said with widened eyes in surprise, "My impression of Japanese companies is just the opposite. I think they pursue innovation, but we follow the rules."

Gao Fan said: "This is just a superficiality. In Japanese culture, there is a lot of hierarchy. If a design is made by a senior designer, and this senior is promoted to a leader because of his good technology, then the designers below will not dare to take it easy." negative.

"Sometimes when we import Japanese equipment, we feel that some of the designs are purely illogical, and we think there is some special purpose, but in fact, the traditional design has not been updated."

"Xiao Wu, after you go back, you can ask some comrades in the technical department to find out. If this is indeed the case, when we digest and absorb Japanese technology in the future, we must be more courageous and dare to Question the design plan of Japanese companies." Zheng Linong said.

"Okay, Minister." Wu Zhefu nodded and wrote down, feeling a little sour in his heart.This little boy Gao Fan really deserves the appreciation of the leader.What he said, maybe he deduced it himself, and the leader actually believed it.

"You said just now that there are two reasons, but now you only said one, what about the other?" Zheng Linong asked.

Gao Fan said: "There is another one, which is to deliberately use this cumbersome design to confuse us."

"Tell me, what does it mean to confuse us?"

"First of all, this kind of cumbersome design can make companies such as Huanghua dare not repair equipment by themselves, thus enhancing the mystery of Japanese equipment and helping them to ask for extravagant prices in future negotiations. Secondly, we can't see Through their design ideas, it is difficult to imitate, which blocks our way of catching up." Gao Fan talked eloquently.

These things were originally mentioned by him in later generations from some old seniors.The predecessors have paid a lot of hardships in order to decipher the mysteries of imported equipment.Sometimes, after understanding the principle of the device, we realize that many of the designs in the device are deceptive. As for whether it is to cheat money or to disturb the sight of imitators, it is not known.

"So, according to what you say, Director Pan must have seen through the tricks of the Japanese, so he dared to boldly propose a transformation plan for the bent pipe?" Zheng Linong asked.
