Great Power Heavy Industry: Rise

Chapter 23 5 yuan of research and development funds
11 month 11 day.

In the morning, the sky was clear and it was a rare good weather.

Zhong Cheng took the bus outside to the machine tool factory in Xinkai District.

Since he came frequently recently, the guards were already familiar with him and let him in without registration.

He came to the third floor of the office building of the machine tool factory and found Zhao Wei in the software development room.

Zhao Wei has already printed out the drawings he needs today.

He had to register with the engine business department to print these zero-numbered drawings, which were nearly two square meters, and he had no choice.

"Old Zhao, let's go. We have to convince Manager Li no matter what today, or the previous work will be wasted."

At the critical moment, Zhao Wei began to worry about gains and losses again, Zhong Cheng grabbed him and walked upstairs.

The two knocked on the door and entered Manager Li's office.

Manager Li looked at the two very strangely, and after a while he slapped his head, remembering why these two people came together to find him.

"Xiao Zhong, Mr. Zhao, it seems that your CNC grinding machine control system is ready."

Manager Li was a little surprised. He didn't expect much from the beginning. After several months, there was no movement at all. He thought Zhong Cheng had given up a long time ago.

Zhong Cheng put a stack of drawings on Manager Li's desk with a smile, "Manager Li, please read the drawings before we talk!"

It's useless to just talk about this kind of thing with your mouth.

"12-axis 9-station linkage CNC machining center?!"

As expected by Zhong Cheng, Manager Li exclaimed.

But after all, Manager Li is the person in charge of a large unit with thousands of people. Although he was taken aback at first, he calmed down immediately and continued to look at the drawings.

The drawings are accompanied by detailed design instructions, which can be understood by anyone who understands machine tool design, and Manager Li is an expert in machine tool design.

Manager Li looked at it for more than two hours, and only looked up again after reading the design blueprint of the entire set of Nuwa Industrial Mother Machine.

He looked Zhong Cheng up and down with an expression as if he had seen a ghost, and asked in disbelief: "Xiao Zhong, did you really design this industrial mother machine?"

Zhong Cheng smiled wryly and said, "Manager Li, from your professional point of view, can this kind of industrial machine be plagiarized?"

"Yes, this kind of performance machine tool is definitely not available in China, even in the world, it has never appeared before. I am not dreaming, can this kind of machine tool really work?"

Manager Li still feels like falling into a dream.

Zhong Cheng winked at Zhao Wei, and Zhao Wei stepped forward and began to introduce his Cangjie CNC system, how to ensure the realization of machine tool functions.

The three of them communicated for more than an hour, and continued after having lunch in the office.

It wasn't until after 3 o'clock in the afternoon that Manager Li fully believed that this Nuwa industrial mother machine was not a fantasy.

He walked back and forth in the office with great excitement, making Zhong Cheng and Zhao Wei dizzy.

"The headquarters of the group company has made a decision to conduct public bidding for the purchase of [-] CNC cylindrical grinding machines for the engine business department before the end of this year, and our machine tool factory has also bid."

"At first, I had no hope. The CNC grinding machine of the machine tool factory has no advantage except the price."

"With this kind of industrial master machine now, the machine tool factory can produce CNC grinding machines with performance superior to that of Deman and Dongyang, so it is entirely possible for us to win this large order."

"Xiao Zhong, Mr. Zhao, you have done a great job!"

How much does it cost for 6 CNC cylindrical grinding machines? According to the price quoted by the Deman people, it will cost 3 million yuan, and the price quoted by the Dongyang people will also cost [-] million yuan.

Zhong Cheng no longer has an intuitive impression of so much money. He only knows that he can buy thousands of two-bedroom, two-living-room houses with a kitchen and bathroom in his hometown.

Absolutely cannot let foreigners make this money, how short of money is the national defense construction now!

Manager Li had already calmed down. He thought for a while and said, "I can't make the decision on this matter alone. I'll hold a meeting of cadres above the middle level in the factory to discuss this matter."

He paused, and then said: "It's not convenient for you two to participate, so just wait for the news here, and it will be fine in a while."

After speaking, he took the drawings and left the office in a hurry.

Zhong Cheng and Zhao Wei looked at each other, and both heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed that this matter was done.

Zhao Wei said excitedly that with the full support of the factory, a prototype can be manufactured within a month, and then trial production will be made for a period of time to form a standard process document. This matter is considered a certainty.

At that time, he will let the people in the software design office take a look to see if his system is rubbish.

The two imagined to their heart's content in Manager Li's office until the tea was gone, and Manager Li hadn't come back yet.

The two of them fell silent, feeling that something was wrong, could this matter be more complicated?

After more than three hours, it was 7 o'clock.

It was already past the off-duty time, and Manager Li returned to the office with the drawings in his hand and a tired face.

As soon as he entered the office, before the two of them could ask questions, Manager Li began to curse.

"This bunch of waste, usually can't see it, and they are afraid of taking responsibility when it comes to critical times, for fear that this industrial mother machine will not be built, which will affect their official positions."

"They still can't see that the times have changed now. If the branch factory can't make money, the group company will no longer invest money to support it. What can't be bought in the market."

Zhong Cheng and Zhao Wei's expressions were ugly. It seemed that this matter was not passed at the meeting, and it was yellow.

Zhao Wei was furious, and began to curse, "These officials are not afraid of the bankruptcy of the branch company. At worst, they can change positions in the group, still be officials, and still get high wages. It has nothing to do with them whether the branch company goes bankrupt. "

An embarrassing expression appeared on Manager Li's face, Zhao Wei's words hit him too.

"Mr. Zhao, you can't say that. Our leadership still hopes that the branch company can operate well, and the income will be high if it is profitable. We can also speak in the group company."

Zhong Cheng quickly winked at Zhao Wei, this guy is not young, and sometimes he is more impulsive than himself.

Zhao Wei was still furious, and said loudly: "The branch company is really going to collapse, and it's only suffering for ordinary workers. They have been in this factory all their lives. What can they do if they are laid off?"

"Cough!" Zhong Cheng interrupted Zhao Wei, and he couldn't let him talk about this topic anymore.

"Manager Li, you are the leader of the machine tool factory, so there is no hope for this matter?"

If he could not get support from the machine tool factory, Zhong Cheng really didn't know what to do. Could he sell this technology to private enterprises?
This completely defeats his original intention.

Manager Li said in a deep voice: "I thought about it at the meeting. They dare not take responsibility. I will take it. I will personally support you in this matter!"

Zhong Cheng's eyes lit up, and Manager Li's image instantly grew taller. This is the role model of Huaxia industrial people.

"Manager Li, what should we do if there is no project in the factory and no funds? Are you kidding me?"

Zhao Wei clearly understood the operating mode of the company, and immediately poured cold water on the two of them.

Manager Li became embarrassed again, "As long as I support it, you can use the people from the machine tool factory as you like, and take the leftovers left over from the machine tool manufacturing."

Seeing that the two were unmoved, Manager Li gritted his teeth and added: "I can allocate 5 yuan from the factory director's fund as a special fund, and if there is more, there will be nothing."

"Leader, what we want to manufacture is the most advanced industrial mother machine in the world today, and one machine will cost hundreds of millions of yuan at least, so you just give 5 yuan in research and development funds to send off beggars, did you teach your mathematics by a physical education teacher?" ?”

Zhao Weiyi lost control of his emotions, screamed, and lost his sense of speaking.

The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

He is completely out.

"you!"

Manager Li's face turned red with anger. Although he knew Zhao Wei's bad temper, he didn't expect it to be so unscrupulous.

"Old Zhao, enough is enough!"

Zhong Cheng loudly stopped Zhao Wei's anger, and said to Manager Li, "Thank you for your support, we will try our best to produce the prototype before the end of the year."

He thought about it in his mind. With the familiar workers of the machine tool factory and the machine tool raw materials, in fact, there are not many places to spend money. Many components can be disassembled from other machine tools.

But the prerequisite is the acquiescence of Manager Li.

Manager Li obviously understood Zhong Cheng's thoughts. He patted Zhong Cheng on the shoulder, "Xiao Zhong, the future of the machine tool factory is in your hands. Except for asking for money, just do other things. If you have anything, I will help you." You carry it."

"Thank you!"

Zhong Cheng sincerely thanked Manager Li this time, and he should bear a great responsibility for his words.

If the Nuwa industrial mother machine project fails, and someone seriously pursues it, Manager Li's official position will definitely be lost.

"By the way, Manager Li, I have one more thing to ask you. To manufacture a prototype, I have to be at the machine tool factory all day. I would like to ask you to go to the engine business department to apply for a secondment order for me."

"Haha, Xiao Zhong, what kind of secondment do you want? I'll transfer your relationship to the machine tool factory directly. They don't use a talent like you. You really have no eyes!"

"Of course it's the best!"

Zhong Cheng didn't have any nostalgia for the engine business department, anyway he was dispensable there.

The transfer from the engine business department to the machine tool factory is an internal transfer within the company, so it should be no problem.

Manager Li and Zhong Cheng think so.

After the matter was settled, Manager Li happily invited Zhong Cheng and Zhao Wei to the small cafeteria of the branch factory for dinner.

During the meal, Manager Li and Zhong Cheng persuaded Zhao Wei.

Zhao Wei had to accept the reality that 5 yuan was spent to manufacture the world's most advanced CNC machine tools.
