Siheyuan: This driver is too arrogant

Chapter 443: Enter the tractor industry and accumulate talents! (Please subscribe)
Liu Weidong did not directly enter automobile manufacturing, but chose to manufacture tractors, which were relatively difficult to manufacture, which surprised Liu Yuwen and Han Cuilan.

"On my last trip to Southeast Asia, I felt a lot. A country cannot survive without heavy industry. However, heavy industry is not something that can be achieved overnight. It has to work hard and endure for 50 to [-] years to cultivate a group of experienced technicians to make machines. Eat the essence and eat it thoroughly, only then can you lay a foundation."

"Think about how many years has Western industrial civilization developed from the Industrial Revolution to the present? What is other people's technological accumulation and precipitation like, and what are we like? Let's not talk about anything else, let's just talk about Hongqi cars. Since the founding of the People's Republic of China It’s been almost 30 years now, and the engine problem has not been solved yet. Not to mention the engine, it’s the gearbox..."

Liu Weidong grabbed the wine glass on the table and poured himself a glass, "It's better that we provide it, otherwise their car won't be able to run away!"

The two sisters looked at each other. Liu Yuwen's family has always been engaged in light industry. It does have a shipyard, but it is more like shipbuilding than shipbuilding. The heavy oil engines used in the [-]-ton giant ships are all imported from the West and installed directly. , there is no technical accumulation to speak of.

"To engage in industry, we have to take one step at a time, one step at a time. It is really difficult. Brother, I think it would be good for us to engage in light industry. We can just make money!"

Liu Yuwen advised.

"Of course you foreign businessmen can think so, because your main task is to make profits, but our factory cannot. We shoulder the heavy responsibility of promoting industrialization. This is the obligation and responsibility of state-owned enterprises."

Liu Weidong drank the glass of wine in one gulp. "If everyone goes to make quick money and no one engages in industrialization in a down-to-earth manner, within 30 years, the fate of mainland China will not be better than that of Siam."

"Ugh!"

Liu Yuwen also sighed. No wonder his brother worked so hard to make the food factory so big, just to use the profits generated by the food factory to support heavy industry. He probably knew that it was a bottomless pit!

Investing in light industry, especially the food industry, may pay back in one year, but investing in heavy industry, especially manufacturing, will take ten years?Or 20 years?
You can never even get your money back!

"Brother, don't worry, you can do it boldly, sister, I support you!" Liu Yuwen raised his cup, "I wish my tractor factory a complete success!"

"This is the sentence I want to hear the most!" Liu Weidong smiled, it's great to have such a sister!

"Brother, I support you too!" Cai'e and Cuilan also raised their glasses, "We support you spiritually!"

"Haha, okay! They are all my good sisters!"

Liu Weidong felt warm in his heart.

He had reported the plan to build a tractor factory to the ministry a long time ago, but the ministry kept withholding it without even a reply. Liu Weidong simply went to the leader directly.

"Weidong, it's good that you want to engage in industry. You are a person who can achieve things. If you set up a tractor factory and beat the long tractor to death, people will poke our spines!"

A leader surnamed Zhang cordially received him and frankly expressed his concerns. Liu Weidong smiled and said, "The market is competitive and the fittest survive. I have seen the tractors they produce over long periods of time. They are all junk and they sell them so expensively. They are simply ridiculous." To defraud farmers and harm them, in a word, I will do it even if the Ministry supports me, and I will do it even if the Ministry does not support me. Please give me an answer!"

"You kid, why are you so unorganized and undisciplined, and you are threatening your superiors!" The leader surnamed Zhang glared at him, "Then you go back and wait, and we will study it again after we have a meeting."

"No, it's a waste of time. If not, I'll go find Mr. Zheng..."

Liu Weidong moved out the old man to scare him, and Leader Zhang's face turned very ugly. This was the first time he had seen such a stubborn subordinate.

"There must be a result today?"

"That's right!"

Leader Zhang's face turned gloomy. Isn't this trying to defeat the superior?
However, he suppressed his anger. Nowadays, foreign capital is pouring in like crazy and competing fiercely with domestic enterprises. The industrial front is generally not very profitable. Only Beijing Iron and Steel Co., Ltd. is booming and pays hundreds of millions in profits and taxes every year. For this kind of mother who can lay golden eggs, Chicken, even he doesn't dare to offend easily.

"Sit back now and I'll go ask the leader for instructions."

The senior leader had just returned from the meeting and heard that Liu Weidong was coming, so he immediately took the time to see him.

"You boy, if I can't take care of you for a while, you will cause trouble for me. How can you do a good job in steelmaking and also build tractors?" The big leader admired Liu Weidong very much, otherwise he would not be able to do it. Promoted to be the youngest chairman, seeing this kid trying to act like a monster again made me feel happy but a little scared.

This kid can make things happen, and he can also make trouble!

"Our factory raises its own funds and does not need to allocate a penny from above." Liu Weidong expressed his attitude with a smile, but this is also nonsense. Nowadays, loss-making factories are everywhere, and many of them have not paid wages for several months. Old state-owned enterprises Facing the fierce market competition, the set couldn't survive at all, and was beaten to a bloody pulp!

The superiors are already in dire straits, how can they still have money allocated to them?
They are also expected to pay profits and taxes, and they will retain part of it to supply other factories!

We can’t watch the workers starve to death!

"Also, I heard that the higher-ups are going to implement profit-to-tax reform, so will the profits we turn over also..."

If you don't let me work in the tractor factory, then I'm sorry, I will also threaten you with the interest-to-tax reform!
"This one……"

Liu Weidong's words touched everyone's heart. What the higher-ups now want to do is to immediately implement the profit-to-tax reform to reduce business operating costs. As a result, the profits and taxes paid to the higher-ups will be greatly reduced. However, the number of state-owned enterprises currently in operating difficulties is There are not a few who come here every day asking for money and support...

The leaders looked at each other, and finally the big leader spoke, "Well, Wei Dong, you have done a good job, and the results have been seen by the superiors, but you can't take advantage of paying profits and taxes. Our purpose of employing people has always been... …”

He was just about to give this arrogant boy a lesson when someone stepped on his foot under the desk, causing him to grit his teeth in pain.

"Let's study it first. You can go back and wait for notification!"

"I heard that the ministry cafeteria is doing a good job. I'll have lunch here!" Liu Weidong said he would not leave if he didn't give me an answer, which made these little old men look helpless.

After lunch, Liu Weidong went into the leader's office again, lay on the sofa and fell asleep, making the leader's head hurt from looking at him!

"Liu Weidong, get up!" The big leader got angry and grabbed him by the ears. "You brat, are you still sleeping here at night and treating me as your home?"

"Ouch, it hurts, it hurts!" Liu Weidong waved his hands repeatedly, "My wife took the children to my father-in-law's house on the grassland. There is no one when I go home at night, so it's not bad to sleep here."

He touched the sofa reluctantly, "It's quite soft, but you have to give me an extra blanket if it gets cold."

"You, you!" The big leader had no idea about him. He sat down and poured himself a glass of water. "I know what you think. To engage in heavy industry, start with simple things first and accumulate experience and technical talents." No? But do you know that if you do this, many state-owned enterprises will be driven to a dead end? "

"What you said, leader, is biased. What do you mean I drove them to a dead end? It was they who drove themselves to a dead end!" Liu Weidong retorted. The leader lowered his head, smacked the words carefully, and nodded, "That's it. That's not bad, I often go to various factories to inspect, and on the surface they are prosperous, but I know how many of them are just pretending to cope with things."

"Okay, you kid has been making trouble here for a little while. I'll ask my superiors for instructions and see what they decide!"

He stood up and glared at Liu Weidong, "Next time you dare to come here and act bad, let's see how I deal with you!"

"Hey, you're a wise leader!" Liu Weidong laughed evilly, and the path to the top was indeed very effective!

Liu Weidong hummed a little tune and returned home. Three days later, an approval document was sent directly to the factory. In principle, they agreed to build the Jingang Tractor Manufacturing Plant. They just needed to raise funds themselves and be responsible for their own profits and losses. The superiors only provided approval documents and policies, and everything else It's all up to them.

"As long as the superiors don't blindly give orders, it will be fine!" Liu Weidong made hundreds of copies of this approval document and had it posted on the factory door. He also transferred technical backbones from various production lines and planned to establish a tractor factory.

The last time Tang Xinmin organized people to reversely copy the gearbox, he had trained a lot of skilled workers, and now they have been directly recruited into the tractor factory. Moreover, Liu Weidong also invited two old mechanics: Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong to come out and join the company. Go to the R&D team.

It’s not enough to have a team without production equipment!

It seems that we have to turn to "overseas relations" for help!
Liu Weidong opened up the system space, and this time the system came in handy again. He packed up the entire John Deere tractor production line and sent it to Tianmen Port. He then made customs declarations in the name of "overseas import" and transported it back with a large truck. I went to the factory and played a game of "transferring flowers and trees".

Anyway, there are very few people who are proficient in foreign trade these days. No one doubted Liu Weidong's actions. He ran to the empty factory building with excitement and stroked the huge containers with a smile on his face. Our factory Something big is about to happen again!

"This is the original machine of a John Deere 15-horsepower small tractor. We will start by imitating this machine." Liu Weidong's path is nothing more than the path from imitation to self-manufacturing, a mature path taken by Western industry. Is it possible that I still have to explore it all over again?
joke!

The workers immediately dismantled the brand-new John Deere wheel tractor into eight pieces, and all the parts were numbered one by one for imitation.

The production lines "transported" from the system space were also installed in place. Looking at the thick mechanical arms, everyone was very excited, but they didn't know what this thing was for.

"This is an industrial robot, look!"

Liu Weidong grabbed a robotic arm, put his hand on the control ring, and with a slight movement, the robotic arm also moved, hoisting a steel plate weighing more than 300 kilograms and installing it to the designated location.

"You must be familiar with the mechanical operations of your position within a month. You will take the exam one month later and the fittest will survive." Liu Weidong ordered, and the workers rolled up their sleeves with their arms exposed, gesticulating like a group of children who got a fun toy.

"Brother, industrial robots are one of the core technologies that are prohibited from being sold to the mainland in Batumi. How did you get it?" Liu Yuwen, who was also visiting, looked surprised. Liu Weidong smiled, "You don't often watch the news. Now the vice president of Citigroup is a good friend of mine."

"You mean?"

"Yes!" Liu Weidong smiled. He had no choice but to give this credit to the foreigner with the tall nose!
"No wonder..." Liu Yuwen looked excitedly at the various high-precision equipment, especially the main control computer. There were various blue and green strips on it, connected to various machines through countless finger-thick wires. As long as people went to that area, Sitting down, the production status of each production line can be seen at a glance.

"The future era is the era of computers and intelligence, and our tractors will also need to be upgraded." Liu Weidong walked to the door, where there was a 15-horsepower small four-wheeler bought from Long Tractor. He reached out and patted it. The red casing shook his head, "Really, a tractor that sells for tens of thousands is not even willing to install an electric ignition, and has to let farmers use a crank to shake it. Do you know how many people are cranked every year? Did this thing get injured and go to the hospital?"

The tractor uses a crank handle, and the reason is actually very simple. This kind of internal combustion engine that uses diesel uses a compression ignition method for ignition, and requires an initial speed to start the carburetor.

But what these manufacturers are unwilling to do is something that only requires a small-power motor!

Liu Yuwen shook his head, "Although this machine looks new, the technology it uses is too old. If those large foreign tractor companies really come in, who will buy their crappy gadgets!"

"Who said no!"

Liu Weidong felt deeply anxious.

Gotta hurry up!

Liu Weidong even thought about installing a computer on the tractor, but after thinking about it, he gave up. Firstly, they didn't have a computer to install it. Secondly, even if it was installed, farmers wouldn't be able to use it.

The manufacturing principles of agricultural machinery are simple structure, strong and durable, and Liu Weidong added another one on this basis: comfort.

As for this electric ignition function, he strongly requires every tractor to be equipped with it!

In terms of diesel engines, the current mainstream ones are the Changzhou Wujin brand, which is an old domestic brand with good quality and simple structure, but the heat conversion rate is too low;

Or choose Liuzhou Wuling, which has the same quality.

Liu Weidong had no choice between these two engines, but decided to make them himself.

They build tractors not to seize the market, but to cultivate technical talents from simple to difficult, from easy to difficult, and then enter the automobile manufacturing industry. This is his ultimate dream!
Whether it is laying out light industry or preparing to build a tractor factory, it is all to achieve this core goal!

The level of our existing technical workers is no worse than that of Changzhou Wujin and Liuzhou Wuling, so why not build an engine with a high thermal efficiency ratio ourselves?

John Deere, I am sorry, this time we have to take advantage of you!

　Happy National Day everyone!
