Era: Retired from the army at the beginning and returned home.

Chapter 226 Engine Pricing

The next day, sunny.

In the winter after the rain in the south, the temperature did not drop much, but the wind began to blow frequently.It's cold when the wind blows on a person's face. Fortunately, this is the wind after the rain, and the humidity is okay.If there is no humidity and the wind blows in winter, a person's face can easily be shaved like shredded radish.

However, this kind of wind has a little influence on the children. Most of the others are rough-skinned and thick-skinned, and their faces are also hey, so they are not afraid.

In this era, cream and clam cream can be used. At present, there are only these two styles of skin care products in China.Although the effect is not as miraculous as some advertising products of later generations boast, at least the common people have used it for so many years, and there is no negative effect.

When I came to the factory, I held a meeting as usual. First, the assembly of the engine must be the top priority of the factory.In addition, there is the issue of engine pricing. Luo Cheng suggested not to sell it to the outside world until the output is up.But if someone needs to modify or something, there must be a price.

According to the manufacturing cost, domestic labor wages are low, and there is not much money including materials.However, there is no patent fee in China, and there is no emphasis on research and development expenses, because the funds for research and development are also considered national.If everyone wants to imitate it, they imitate it, but if they cannot imitate it, that is another way of saying.

Importing a piece of glass, even if it costs a few hundred yuan, can sell for thousands of dollars in China.The actual ratio is actually more than six times, and the actual import of a piece of glass is only 300 yuan.If calculated according to the current exchange rate, the RMB should be only a few hundred, but people don't want RMB.

In the case of foreign exchange, in fact, imported products are not expensive in this era. It must be known that in the past ten or twenty years, cars exported from Japan to Hong Kong cost only a few thousand yuan per car.At that time, Hong Kong was a free port, and the Hong Kong dollar was not as valuable as the renminbi, but people recognized the Hong Kong dollar.

"Three thousand, this engine is designed by me, although its performance is still being tested. But I think this engine must be more powerful than imported engines. Now the imported engines sold in China cost three to five thousand. Our Good engine, cheap price, no problem."

When everyone was still discussing the price of hundreds of dozens, Luo Cheng directly offered a price of [-]. This is considered a high-tech product of this era. Even if foreign countries want to imitate his engine, they must first crack it. Drawings and labels, it doesn't mean that you can't understand the engine, at least it will take a long time. If there is a long time, Luo Cheng has already upgraded the new engine, and the overseas market will also be occupied first.

As far as the domestic salary level is concerned, it is really not bragging, exporting, as long as the product quality and level are acceptable.Labor costs are really not comparable to other countries.

"Director Luo, the price is too high, the manufacturing cost of an engine is not much."

Director Zhang is in charge of the logistics. Through finance, he knows the production price of those accessories very well. Even if they are processed in other factories, they only earn some labor costs.In this era, there are no products that slaughter people.

"Director Zhang, you can't say that. The engine factory in Tianhu, the diesel engine factory in Hongcheng, and even the one in Sijiu City. How did their factories be established? They need funds and equipment. What's more Our engine is not going to be sold outside, whether others like it or not.”

Seeing that Director Zhang felt that the price he said was outrageous, the others also agreed.But Luo Cheng didn't think so. Assembling an engine for him was more troublesome than assembling a car, and other engine factories were established because of demand at the beginning of their establishment.

Let’s say that other people make cars, just imitate them, merge as many factories, and return 80 R&D funds.Therefore, other factories can not count the investment in equipment and technology.But Luo Cheng can't do it here. If the price is too low, it's better not to sell it. At most, even add a glass to the cube car, install a new engine, and sell it directly for 1 yuan.

If the money invested in the machine is included in the cost, and the algorithm is all self-produced, then there will be too many machines, maybe hundreds of thousands.Wrong, it's just a set of machines, Luo Cheng intends to export them after satisfying his needs.Calculated in millions, Luo Cheng didn't think it was too much.

State-owned enterprises develop products independently without relying on any financial allocations. You can say that the current Automobile No. [-] Factory is doing the same.However, the No. [-] Automobile Factory is a factory that has already developed, and the No. [-] Automobile Factory was also invested by local finance in the early days.

Luo Cheng has nothing to do here, except that he has borrowed tens of thousands of R&D expenses from Automobile No. [-] Factory to make cube cars. Basically, it has developed to the present, and there is no local financial support from the beginning to the end.To put it bluntly, automobile manufacturers are now in debt, and only when the cars they produce are sold can they make a profit.

And at this price, Luo Cheng intends to export it at this price, at most according to the currency ratio, it will cost more than 2000 US dollars per unit.

Anyway, the price of domestically produced engines is of no reference value, because the profits of domestically produced products are not too high these days.

This time Luo Cheng made a speech, but considering the assembly speed of the cube car, unless the parts are processed by other factories, and the planned production contract must be signed, the engine made is really not enough for his own use.It's cheaper to sell, even if you assemble a few more cube cars, it's better than selling the engine.

Just like Tianhu's Automobile No. [-] Factory, the engine is enough to toss by itself. If it is enough, it will not increase production because it cannot be exported.This is also the reason why Luo Cheng couldn't give much amount after he built the cube car.

And when everyone was discussing the price of the engine for sale, the rolling mill sent the raw materials for the forklift.The plates for five forklifts were customized, as well as the forks that were customized according to the requirements.

The sheet alone accounts for more than half of the weight of the car, and two trucks were used to deliver it from the rolling mill.It is mainly used to produce the body panels of forklifts. It is a large overall steel plate. A single panel weighs more than half a ton, and several people need to work hard to remove it.

However, if there is a forklift in the future, at least one must be kept in the factory. Anyway, Luo Cheng looks a little scary in the unloading posture now.Once you miss, the gravity will really cause an accident.

Now that the materials for the forklift have arrived, the meeting will continue, and the HR department will continue to recruit people. Luo Cheng also knows that the workshop is currently not enough.Overcoming difficulties, the construction site workshop of the new site has been expanding, even when it is raining, the ground is being cleaned up.Luo Cheng didn't ask the workers to work outside on rainy days. When it wasn't raining, it would be colder outside, just wear more clothes.

Luo Cheng didn't expect that he would pick up a production workshop of a military factory for nothing, resulting in the occupation of the two newly built workshops at once.

Luo Cheng has almost finished talking about the things he wants to talk about, mainly the production of forklifts and engines.After talking about this, Director Zhang reported on the assessment. There were more than 40 people in the assessment, and three of them failed.Section Chief Liu of the Personnel Department also reported on the recruitment situation. The sub-district office also prioritized people based on conditions, family members of martyrs, family conditions, married young people, and finally the area range from near to far.

This time, Luo Cheng planned to recruit 200 people, including [-] regular workers.Mechanical operators, welders, blacksmiths, fitters, etc. are all required.And now there is no need to poach corners to recruit regular workers. There are now six-level workers in the automobile factory, and they can pass the senior worker assessment.Workers in other factories want to learn better technology and have a higher skill level. If they have the opportunity to come, most of them will come, and the welfare of the automobile factory, anyone who knows the situation knows that it is good.

After the meeting, if there is a task assigned, immediately set off to do it.For those who have not been arranged, in fact, they can infer roughly when they will be able to come to their side according to the direction of development in the factory.

For example, Li Xiaotong in the infirmary, she is a little worried now, if the factory has more than a thousand workers, there will be normal doctor positions to work.Unlike their nurses, they can only prescribe cold medicine, give anti-fever injections, and of course bandage small wounds.But when I encountered a situation where I was not feeling well and didn't have a fever.Then they are really useless.

In fact, it means that Li Xiaotong was used to being controlled by others during his internship, and now he feels like being in charge of his own affairs.She doesn't want others to be on her head, so she is worried, and this also refers to the medical department on her head, not Luo Cheng.

Now the infirmary has recruited another nurse, who was called by Li Xiaotong and became her little attendant.But in fact, their levels are the same, unless the factory continues to expand, the infirmary will become a small outpatient clinic, and the number of medical subjects will increase.Then Li Xiaotong can still be a head nurse.

Of course, Luo Cheng didn't know what this girl was thinking. It was fine for Xu Haitang to come to the meeting. At least some news could be broadcast directly by her.But Li Xiaotong, who works in the infirmary, always came here to hold meetings.If it weren't for her being pretty and making her look a little seductive, Luo Chengcheng would have informed her individually that she would not come to meetings in the future.

At around ten o'clock in the morning, Luo Cheng's father really came again, and the number of visits was more, and Luo Cheng didn't have to come forward to receive his father every time he came.He was watching the excitement at the new factory at this time. How to manually bend the two ends of a board weighing more than half a ton without a high-tonnage stamping machine.

Of course, it is said that it is done by hand, and it is also necessary to use various small tools, such as clamping, shaping, welding and cutting machines, etc.

Luo Chengcheng stood in the workshop, watching the masters making preparations.How long and how big the arc is is marked with a caliper.The prep work is really meticulous.But in fact, this is just a body frame, and the requirements are actually not high.

The steel pipes are padded under the board, and I saw several gas welding masters start calcining directly from the marked positions, and two masters with big hammers, they really hit it directly.

It's really like blacksmithing, very rhythmic beating, no matter how much the bend is made, there are people watching from the side.Where it is not in place and where it needs to be knocked, someone is watching from the side.

That is, in ten minutes, the shape of a surface came out.Except for some knock marks on the surface that need to be polished, judging from the curvature, it really doesn't look like it was made by hand.

But it has to be said that although the workers' skills are good, no matter how deep the basic gas welding and calcination are, and how much force the big hammer uses to strike, they are all stable.But in the case of the hundred-ton and thousand-ton stamping of later generations, one side can be stamped out with one stroke.Especially for things that do not require high precision, many skilled workers have been eliminated.

It takes more than ten minutes for seven or eight people to make a dough, not counting the pre-measurement and marking preparation work.It just needs two sides.If the shape of a car is like that of a Hongqi car, with all kinds of curves, such a group of people may be able to knock out a car frame in a day.

And just such a group of people must be highly skilled workers, ordinary people simply can't make such a cooperation.And don't look at how stable the workers are now, but in fact it is very troublesome to maintain a high frequency and stable output.So even if there are only five car boards, excluding the rest time, it may not be done in a day.

That is to say, after looking at a board and making it into shape, Luo Chengcheng left.Luo Cheng plans to design Cube Car 2.0 (van), and the body sheet metal only needs a slight margin.Moreover, the iron sheet is thin, so it can be knocked out without so many people.

But at such a body manufacturing speed, even if the transmission does not get stuck, the output will not be able to increase.It's no wonder that Hongqi cars can only be matched with people at the level of a certain boss. Anyone who builds a car now can't make it fast in China.

It stands to reason that the time of cold weather is actually the same as the time of hot weather, but for some reason, many people have the illusion that the time of cold weather seems to pass faster than the time of hot weather.If you move it casually, it will be gone for half a day.

At noon, father Luo Wen took people to eat in the factory cafeteria. Yesterday, Xiao Yu kept a box the size of a lunch box for the stewed chicken with chestnuts and mushrooms.Let my father take it back for the family to eat together.

For the new canteen, Liu Yi and his people have already gone there to build it. The canteen is located between the old and new factory buildings, and the area of ​​the canteen is relatively large.The roof is hung with a steel structure roof, so the factory building cannot be built so big.

The new canteen was also designed by Luo Cheng. It was similar to the school canteens of later generations, with many windows and reception rooms for serving food.

The old canteen has not been evacuated immediately, mainly because some facilities in the new canteen are not complete.The old cafeteria is really helpless, every day the kitchen is crowded with people, and when ordering food, there is also a long queue.

Now that there is a new canteen, those who work in the new factory don't have to come here.The old cafeteria here will actually be moved there in a few days.

At noon, Luo Cheng slipped away after eating to say hello to the personnel department.The factory doesn't have a deputy factory manager yet, and Luo Cheng doesn't have time to take a break, so when he leaves the factory, Luo Cheng has to say hello to the HR department.

Luo Cheng went back to his room to get the food book and was going to get the food stamps. Of course, he also had to go to the post to get the letter.

I took the letter first, and then went to the grain store. If I didn't buy grain, I took the ticket for cooperation.Coarse food stamps can be given directly to father Luo Wen, and now there is no shortage of rough wolves in his hometown.It is much more convenient to store some food stamps than food.

In the afternoon, Luo Cheng first watched the letters at the door of the office when no one came, and then went to the office to open them.The last time I wrote back, I asked about the size of Dai Qianqian's chest cloth, and I don't know how the other party replied.If the other party seriously discusses this with him, he can discuss another issue in depth.

Men and women in this era wear square underwear. I don’t know what Dai Qianqian thinks about the triangle underwear.There are people who wear bikinis in foreign countries, and briefs are designed abroad to save cloth, or it is a fashion.

This ~~pretentious~~ thing is really pretentious, and it is worth discussing.
