Chapter 233: Sprint with all your strength, same thing every month
Although many workers said they would continue to work hard in the factory and voluntarily gave up their holidays.
But Jiang Hui still asked everyone to go home to celebrate the New Year on New Year's Eve, and the next day was also a day off on New Year's Day.
Wait until the second day of the Lunar New Year to start producing subsequent prototypes and do various testing work on the prototypes that have already rolled off the production line.
After all, we all live not far from the factory, so it’s really hard to justify not taking a holiday at this time.
Of course, with military morale available, Jiang Hui would not miss such a good opportunity.
A series of relevant rules and regulations will be officially promulgated one after another after the year.
In order to give on-site workers the opportunity to improve their level and even transfer to technical positions, the R&D center will also set up study classes after the new year.
After get off work, many workers took time to learn two hours of professional and technical knowledge related to motorcycles.
For example, workers responsible for installing bolts not only simply learn which operating manuals should be followed to assemble parts, but also learn some bolt processing knowledge and various torque-related knowledge.
Anyway, the factory has not yet started large-scale production, so the workers' time is generally quite sufficient.
During this process, the internal situation of Chaoyang Motorcycle Manufacturing Factory can be said to be the same every day, changing very quickly.
Goals that many factories have been unable to achieve after years of hard work were achieved here in just a few months.
If outsiders come to visit, they may even feel that the on-site management of the factory is a bit out of tune with other factories in China.
"Xiao Jiang, is this your BMW 70? It looks very good."
Just after the Spring Festival holiday, Qin Hao, as a representative of the First Machinery Department, came over for inspection.
Zheng Haiming, the new vice minister, and Zhou Jian will also come for inspection in the future.
It can be said that Chaoyang Motorcycle Manufacturing Factory is now a typical case of the First Machinery Department's reform of a poorly managed factory, and everyone attaches great importance to it.
“Our BMW 70 is a BMW technology that fully integrates internationally advanced motorcycle technology and introduces classic designs from overseas.”
“Although it cannot be said that its performance has reached It has reached the most advanced level in the world, but it is not far behind the international mainstream level.”
"The most important thing is that by promoting the production of BMW 70, our factory has gradually formed a complete system and is ready to introduce more new products in the future."
Jiang Hui personally gave Qin Hao Introducing the BMW 70, Jiang Hui himself, as the driver, even drove Qin Hao around the factory to fully experience the riding experience of this motorcycle.
“During a meeting last year, the Fifth Machinery Department showed off to us that Jialing Factory had produced the first civilian motorcycle in China.”
“But the back of their products After confirmation, there are still a lot of problems that need to be improved, the cost is very high, and there has never been large-scale production.”
“Now we have caught up with the latecomers in the first machine department and successfully achieved overtaking in corners. It’s definitely a gratifying thing.”
There is naturally competition between the First Machinery Department, the Fifth Machinery Department and other departments.
Especially as the factories under the Fifth Machinery Department began to convert from military to civilian, the competition and comparison between the factories under the First Machinery Department and the Fifth Machinery Department began to increase.
In the past, the same department was responsible for the same type of factories, and whether it was good or bad was the matter of this department.
Now they are in different departments. If the difference is relatively large, the comparison effect will come out.
The superior leaders can naturally see this.
So Qin Hao was actually under pressure.
Especially in the field of automobiles and motorcycles, and even related products such as televisions, many factories that have been converted from military to civilians have set their sights on this product.
If the factories under the First Machinery Department fail to live up to their expectations, Qin Hao and the others will definitely lose their face, and even their future prospects will become bleak.
Especially now that the above-mentioned emphasis is placed on economic construction, the impact in this area is even greater.
“At present, our BMW 70 is still in the leading position.”
"But I heard that the Jialing factory is negotiating with Japan's Honda Motor Co., Ltd. to introduce some motorcycle technology from them. By then, the quality of their products should also have a big change, and they may even directly introduce Honda motorcycles. As for products, the competition with us will still be fierce.”
Although Jiang Hui is confident of surpassing Jialing Honda’s market performance, there is no need to be so confident at this time.
In the field of motorcycles, Honda is still very strong.
At least the current BMW 70, if compared with the imported Honda 70, I dare not say that it is better in terms of quality.
Especially the finishing of some parts, this aspect is closely related to the accuracy of the equipment.
Without advanced machine tools, even if you design the parts perfectly, the final production will not achieve the desired effect.
This gap will take some time to catch up.
“I have also heard about this. There are many factories in the Fifth Machinery Department that want to develop motorcycles and cars. The Jialing factory is not the first, and it will not be the last.”
"But I have confidence in you."
Qin Hao's words are really not a joke.
Through the two years of understanding, he has a very deep understanding of Jiang Hui's strength.
Chaoyang Motorcycle Manufacturing Factory, which was originally a backwater and in a deadlock, underwent such a huge change in just half a year after it was contracted to Jiang Hui.
Now it has become the object of much attention from the First Machinery Department.
According to the information reported by Jiang Hui to the First Machinery Department, once the BMW 70 is officially mass-produced, their number of employees will quickly expand to 500, and is expected to exceed 1,000 by the end of this year.
Qin Hao thinks this number is conservative.
Even Chaoyang Motorcycle Manufacturing Factory only has 1,000 people after taking into account various overtime production conditions.
Otherwise, once this year's production exceeds 10,000 vehicles, it would be normal for the number of employees to reach 2,000.
“Thank you, Bureau Qin, for giving our factory the opportunity to participate in the National Machinery Industry Exhibition this time. I will not embarrass you then.” “The five motorcycles we saw today are our first batch. There are still some problems that need further improvement."
"We will make rapid improvements this month and continue to produce the second batch of prototypes next month. Sent to the exhibition”
"At the same time, our shareholder BMW Technology will also purchase the first batch of 100 BMW 70s from the factory to be sold in Hong Kong City, and even further sold to Southeast Asian countries in the future."
Let BMW 70 Appearing in more countries, even if it sells very little in each country, is of special significance.
When the time comes, we will take some photos together and use them for domestic publicity. It will definitely have a good effect.
Jiang Hui has already thought about this aspect of work.
Although BMW Technology is still a leather company, the entire company now has more than a dozen employees.
It is worth giving everyone a try when it comes to selling motorcycles.
No matter how difficult it is, it is necessary to clarify the various customs clearance procedures and make preparations for further market expansion in the future.
"Can we earn foreign exchange through export this year?"
Qin Hao's eyes immediately lit up after hearing Jiang Hui's words.
Which leader in this era doesn’t like earning foreign exchange through exports?
In particular, industrial products such as motorcycles are exported.
“Yes, we can definitely earn foreign exchange through exporting.”
Looking at Qin Hao’s expectant eyes, Jiang Hui answered with certainty.
"That's great. If there's anything that needs to be coordinated within the ministry, you can boldly tell me. No need to be polite."
Qin Hao circled around the BMW 70 After a few laps, the more I look at it, the more I like it.
"Not yet. If there are any difficulties in the future, I will report to the leader as soon as possible."
...
After Qin Hao came to visit, within a week, Zheng Haiming, the newly appointed deputy minister, also Officially came over for inspection.
"Xiao Jiang, after Leader Zheng took office, your Chaoyang Motorcycle Manufacturing Factory was the first target of inspection."
Qin Hao and Jiang Hui accompanied Zheng Haiming on the left and right, Visit inside the workshop.
In order for Zheng Haiming to have a clearer understanding of the production of the BMW 70, Jiang Hui specially asked people to dismantle a prototype today, and reassigned the various parts to the workshop for assembly.
This can also be considered as giving workers more opportunities to practice their skills.
"Xiao Jiang, I have long wanted to come and take a look. When I was still at the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant, I heard a lot of news related to your factory."
"Now It really didn’t disappoint me.”
As the former director of the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant, Zheng Haiming had visited many supporting factories before.
But what was the on-site management of those factories like, and what is the on-site management of Chaoyang Motorcycle Factory like now? A comparison...
No wonder Zheng Haiming was so emotional.
Although the cleanliness and tidiness of the site cannot be directly equated with the quality and performance of the product, for a large international company, the on-site management of their factory must be very good.
Otherwise, there will be no way to support the company's continued expansion of production.
“We also combined the various experiences accumulated when we worked at the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant, plus the on-site management we saw during our last inspection trip to the United States, and then we contacted the Capital Internal Combustion Engine Plant. After some exchanges, and finally combined with some opinions from BMW Technology, we have the current situation.”
Jiang Hui is quite satisfied with the current workshop status of Chaoyang Motorcycle Manufacturing Factory.
Except for the less automated equipment, the overall feeling is at least a bit like a modern factory of later generations.
This is actually very rare.
People who have worked in the automobile industry may have felt that in the early years, going to the production sites of Japanese parts manufacturers or European and American parts manufacturers was completely different from going to private parts factories. Same.
Although we don’t know how to describe some gaps in words, those gaps can be seen with the naked eye.
"The mental outlook of the workers in your factory is also the best among all the factories I have seen. It seems that you have put in a lot of effort in the past few months."
Zheng Haiming visited the site very seriously Throughout the production line, I even exchanged a few words with some workers during the process.
Overall, he felt very good.
“The future of workers and the future of the factory are organically combined. Everyone is very optimistic about the new product BMW 70. In addition, the relevant incentive plan has been officially announced, so that every worker can understand I know that everything I do is closely related to the future of the factory and the individual, and the overall situation has gradually changed significantly.”
In fact, from Jiang Hui’s point of view, the spirit of the workers has changed. The most critical reason for the change in appearance is whether the money is in place.
But this reason naturally cannot be put on the table, so I can only talk about other viewpoints.
Anyway, Zheng Haiming has been the factory director for so many years, and he actually knows some things well, but it is very difficult to change them.
"Work hard and strive to become a model for this year's reform in the ministry."
"As long as you do well, the ministry can be more bold in promoting some reform measures."
Zheng Haiming obviously also supports Chaoyang Motorcycle Manufacturing Factory.
These speeches were also heard by many workers, and everyone was full of confidence in the future of the factory.
Chaoyang Motorcycle Manufacturing Factory, a factory that is about to have a huge impact on the entire Chinese industry, will soon be ready to fly.
