There are some differences from what Professor Zheng Ping expected. On the day when Zhou Qingfeng's job advertisement was published, he immediately called Nantou Township to inquire about the matter. Others feel that the conditions are right, can't wait to get information on the phone, ride their bicycles through the terrible country dirt road, and take the initiative to ask questions.
The magic of'two hundred yuan a month' is infinite.
Among those who came to apply for a job, some were foundry masters, some were machine tool masters, some had just graduated from technical secondary school, and some were in a design institute in the city. Before night fell, seven or eight outsiders walked into the dilapidated factory door of'Shengguang Machinery'.
For those who are willing to come to apply for a job, no matter who it is, Zhou Qingfeng will give him a good meal and food. He contracted the township guesthouse to house these people.
Even if someone was disappointed after seeing the dilapidated factory building and the rudimentary equipment, they could still receive two dollars for the toll and be sent away politely. This kind of wise corporal's method has given many people a little more confidence. Township and village enterprises are a bit worse, but there is no problem in dealing with others.
Respect for talents,'Shengguang Machinery' has done it.
Everyone who came here registered one by one, and then faced the same interview problem—who can help Zhou Qingfeng design a small gasoline engine
From shell molds, to machined parts, to production and assembly, to testing and leaving the factory, and even external sales. Zhou Qingfeng needs a complete solution. This is a project that one person counts the shortcomings and everyone counts the long-term. Anyone can discuss it, and the opinions that can be adopted will be rewarded.
Is there anything special about this small gasoline engine
It's not special at all, it's even ordinary in performance. It is required to have a displacement of 50CC, a power of three to four horsepower, a small size, and fuel consumption not to be too exaggerated. The key is to be able to facilitate production.
Where is it used? Modified tricycle.
Zhou Qingfeng lived for a few months in 1990, and the biggest feeling about the countryside is that traffic and communication are too inconvenient. Of these, traffic is the deadliest. The people urgently need a cheap and easy-to-use means of transportation.
This reminded him of a common illegal motor vehicle in the villages of later generations, which was a tricycle with a small engine. This kind of car can load and pull people, has enough horsepower, has strong adaptability, and the modification cost is very low. It will be done at most more than 1,000 yuan in thirty years.
This kind of modified three-wheel is not safe in driving, so it can only run on the road of the township. If you drive it and run into a traffic policeman, you will be fined 1,000 to 2,000, with a driver’s license deducted more than 20 points, and administrative detention will start for five days.
But if it can be done 30 years ago, the situation will be different. As long as it is cheap enough and the price is compressed below 300 yuan, Zhou Qingfeng promises to buy this car nationwide.
The hawkers at the roadside retail shop will definitely like it, and the farmers who are going to the city will like it too. Small batches of cheap transportation can also be developed, and the economic vitality will definitely be greatly improved.
The key is that this thing has no technical content, it is a two-stroke gasoline engine. A tricycle is equipped with it, coupled with foot brake, manual gear, fuel tank, battery, exhaust pipe and other accessories, it can become a motorcycle that is not a motorcycle.
This kind of trolley is like playing with a few hundred catties. As for the shortcomings such as high fuel consumption, that is not a problem. Now the price of oil is cheap, only one liter is more than one liter, and ordinary people can afford it.
Facing this whimsical but seemingly reasonable project,'Shengguang Machinery' held a big discussion internally, and everyone from skilled craftsmen to entry-level apprentices can speak freely. Everyone can think about it from a familiar perspective.
For example, small engine casings cannot be machined. In order to use cast iron cylinders for cheap, the masters of sand foundry and molds have a say. But the cylinders and pistons must be machined, as a master who understands lathes can say. Even if you are an apprentice, you can also give your opinion from the difficulty of making it.
Zhou Qingfeng does not exclude purchasing parts from outside orders. Applicants who come from the city can recommend products from their original units. It doesn't matter if this is just a copycat assembly, as long as it can be made.
The initial plan must be very rough, but as more and more people come from the city to apply for jobs, as professional designers agree to be weekend engineers, as various materials become more abundant. A gradually mature plan will be placed on Zhou Qingfeng's desktop.
No matter how poor Tianyang's industrial capacity is, it is no problem to build such a low-tech gasoline engine. All parts are shelf products, all of which can be purchased from a company in the city. 'Shengguang Machinery' only needs to assemble the parts.
Production is no problem, but for such a project to run well, a mature management team is required to control the progress and cost. Zhou Qingfeng's overview of the overall situation is okay, but he doesn't know the specific techniques, and he has to catch the blind if he depends on meticulous work. So he needs a knowledgeable project manager and a responsible person.
Professor Zheng appeared outside the factory gate of'Shengguang Machinery' at this time. It was twelve o'clock in the night when he came, listening to the sound of the factory repairing agricultural machinery-the factory was recently repairing a harvester, and no one in Nantou Township had used it before and didn't know how to repair it.
The factory door was open, and the yard inside was illuminated by the iodine tungsten lamp. The masters in the factory are still figuring out how to drive the cutters of the harvester.
Professor Zheng walked in like a tourist with his hands behind his back. The people in the factory are busy and no one takes care of it. He stood outside the field and watched for a long time. After listening for a long time, he suddenly said, "You don't have assembly drawings and parts dimensions. How can it be repaired?"
At present, most of the mechanics of "Shengguang Machinery" come from the original machine repair shop, and everyone is not too concerned about repairing agricultural machinery that they are familiar with. But the land in Nantou Township was scarce and fragmented. This harvester was purchased from a waste product in another county and lacked a lot of parts.
When Professor Zheng spoke, several repairers also sighed. Someone asked, "Master, do you have a way?"
"Neither did I." Professor Zheng shook his head, "I was just passing by and seeing your lights are still on in the middle of the night, so I will come in and take a look."
Judging from his dress and appearance, Professor Zheng is not a native of the country, and no one believes that he is passing by. It's just that his appearance in the middle of the night was beyond the expectation of the people in the factory. One of the masters greeted him actively: "Master, come in for a cup of tea. This machine can only be left alone."
It is said to be left, but all the mechanics and apprentices gathered the tools on site and cleaned the working surface, even the oil on the ground was cleaned up as much as possible. This was a routine operation, but the factories that were not well managed were left unattended at all.
This made Professor Zheng very surprised. It is rare for the workers in the city to have this habit of hand-cleaning, and they would just throw them everywhere.
"Your management is quite strict."
"Because wages will be deducted."
"Your factory manager's rules?"
"Yes, our factory manager is not very old, everything is fine, but he turned his face very quickly. Just fired two people last week, and he didn't leave any affection. He said,'A hundred yuan of salary requires a hundred yuan of discipline. ', everything is easy to say, this one cannot be changed."
This sounded a bit familiar, Professor Zheng vaguely remembered some foreign entrepreneur who said similar words. He followed a few technicians into the factory's lounge, and was surprised to find... "Do you still have supper?"
Hahaha..., everyone laughed. The grievances brought about by Tie Law dissipated. In terms of welfare treatment,'Shengguang Machinery' is not bad at all.
There are also office staff in the lounge, and a telephone fax machine is placed in the center, glamorous. There is a computer next to the fax machine. This equipment is rare in Tianyang City, and it is matched by a small township factory.
"Are you equipped with computers?" Professor Zheng knew that such a set of office equipment was valuable, tens of thousands.
The supper of the master mechanic was meat buns with soy milk. They divided several portions to Professor Zheng, and asked: "Master, do you know how to use this imported foreign stuff? Our factory manager doesn't understand it. We are looking for someone to use it. "
