Siheyuan: Xu Damao, I want to go to the moon

Chang Hongjun's face looked very unhappy. You want me to pay for the experiment myself?

I'm the deputy factory director!

Transferred from the Ministry of Commerce!

However, he concealed his expression very well. He had already thought that Xu Damao was not easy to get along with. Wasn't it just the cost of experimental research and development?

How much can you spend?

"No problem. I wonder how much the R&D cost of a speaker is..."

At this time, Liu Guangqi took out a notebook from his bag, flipped through it and started talking to everyone.

“1-15号音箱研发费用427块6、50斤白面、70斤面值粮票、20斤猪肉——”

As soon as this data was reported, Chang Hongjun and the five college students behind him changed their expressions - are the R&D costs so expensive?

How come there are both small and large amounts, as well as flour coupons and pork?!

刘光齐继续说着：“平均下来，一台的研发费用大约是28块5、3.3斤白面、4.7斤粮票、1.3斤猪肉。”

"By the way, the average construction period is three days. If it exceeds the limit, you will have to pay extra money. Otherwise, it will affect the work progress of others. Please understand, Deputy Director Chang."

"If there are no problems, I will open a special account book when I return to the office. Deputy Director Chang, do you have any other questions?"

Liu Guangqi, the factory director's secretary, was very competent. On his first day, he copied all the development materials and account books from Li Huaide. It can be said that he knew more about the whole process of the speaker factory than Xu Damao and Li Huaide.

The money was not much, but it was a bit embarrassing. Chang Hongjun was forced to pay money just after joining the factory and had not yet made any contributions. This made him lose face.

But there is a precedent for this matter. As the deputy factory director, it is not okay for you to break the precedent yourself. So Chang Hongjun has to take this loss and cannot avoid it.

"Okay, no problem. I'll let you know when I get everything together this afternoon."

Chang Hongjun is flexible and will not confront Xu Damao for such a small amount of money. There is no need for that.

"Deputy Director Xu, how about we go to the factory office and sit down and talk?"

"please."

The two deputy factory directors were arguing with each other in the factory. Isn't this a joke to the workers?

So everyone came to the factory office in the office building, and someone went to inform Li Huaide. As soon as he came in, Li Huaide gave Xu Damao an apologetic look.

I didn’t protect my home…

Liu Guangqi consciously poured tea for the leaders.

"Da Mao, this is Comrade Chang Hongjun, who was transferred from the Ministry of Commerce. He has experience in foreign trade and is now the deputy director of our speaker factory."

"Comrade Chang Hongjun, this is Comrade Xu Damao, the deputy director of our speaker factory and also our chief designer."

"From now on, we will eat in the same trench. Since the speaker factory is a new experimental factory, we will discuss everything together. We will support each other and make progress together."

Li Huaide briefly introduced both parties and made his meaning very clear: since they were here, they should work together to make the speaker factory bigger and stronger.

Xu Damao nodded to Chang Hongjun. So what if he was unhappy? It was an arrangement from his superiors, and he, Xu Damao, couldn't send people back.

"I'm sorry for what happened before. We have a small workforce and a lean administration, so we're dealing with issues, not people. There are three departments overseeing finance, so any R&D experiments or extra benefits must have clear accounts. I hope Deputy Director Chang will understand."

Chang Hongjun also nodded: "I understand. Clear accounts are a good thing. However, I suggest that the key departments of our speaker factory, such as the Accounting and Finance Department, the Technical Department of the Production Department, and the Distribution Department (Sales Department), should be established quickly. The current management of the speaker factory is too extensive, which is not conducive to the expansion of production in the future."

Xu Damao knew a little about these things, but not very clearly, and he didn't care.

In his impression, making 3000 pairs of speakers in a month is nothing.

It can only be considered a small workshop. He thinks 100 people are too many. Why does it need so many management agencies?

Li Huaide - Personnel and logistics are centrally coordinated by the steel rolling mill.

The Accounting and Finance Department is the financial department, which is under the supervision of the higher-ups. The foreign exchange sold never reaches the speaker factory, but is divided up by the higher-ups. Not a penny is left. However, the speaker factory does not lack the funds it needs. It can directly contact Li Huaide to have the steel mill advance the money, and then settle the bill with the ministry. This is not something Xu Damao needs to worry about.

Xu Damao - in charge of both production and R&D, he knows the processes best.

Liu Guangqi - mediates between the two parties and is responsible for the implementation of tasks assigned by Xu Damao and Li Huaide.

And as soon as Chang Hongjun arrives, he will be in charge of finance, R&D, and sales?

This hand is stretched out long enough...

Xu Damao frowned. He hated these official affairs. There was no result yet, so why did we need so many departments?

Xu Damao didn't care about the basic structure of the steel rolling mill before, but Li Huaide explained it to him during their chat.

Factory director, secretary (deputy department level), deputy factory director (director level);

Directors (deputy director level) and deputy directors (section level) of each department, and heads of sections (deputy section level) under each department;

Section is the smallest administrative unit in a steel rolling mill, under which there are groups or sections. It has no administrative rank and is just a leader.

1. Office: the central office, a department directly managed by the factory director (the Propaganda Department is directly under it, and is managed by Director Yang);

2. Political Work Department - responsible for ideological construction (Secretary Nie's main department);

3. Personnel Department - responsible for the personnel of the entire factory;

4. Accounting and Finance Department – ​​responsible for managing money;

5. Production Department - the most important department, in charge of production (the technical department, R&D department, workshop, maintenance department, etc. are all under it. Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong and others work in the workshop. The team leader that Liu Haizhong is obsessed with is actually the head of the workers in the workshop and has no administrative level);

6. Sales Office - Allocation Office, which is responsible for sales recovery, external relations, and reception;

7. Logistics Department - Provides production and living services for the entire factory (Li Huaide’s headquarters, including the canteen management center, purchasing department, factory clinic, etc.);

8. Security Section - affiliated to the steel mill, but also has a certain range of independent law enforcement power (Chief Xie's base camp);

9. Others - Women's Federation, Youth League Committee, Discipline Inspection Commission. (The information is from the Internet, just for reference)

Many administrative structures of the speaker factory are dependent on the steel rolling mill and are under unified management there. After all, there is a six-month trial period, and setting up other departments at this time would be a complete waste of manpower and material resources.

Xu Damao didn't waste any words and asked directly: "Deputy Director Chang, I don't know the other things, but you want to set up a technical department? We don't have any plans for new product development yet?"

As the chief designer, I have no intention of developing new products. What are you doing with this technical department?

Chang Hongjun seemed to have just remembered something, smiled and said, "Oh, I forgot to tell Deputy Director Xu, you just came back today so you don't know."

"The leaders from the Ministry of Metallurgy, the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of Commerce came to inspect a few days ago. At that time, Deputy Director Xu was still out collecting materials and had not returned yet."

"The three leaders decided to take advantage of the hot sales of the Legend subwoofer to produce a batch and develop a batch of new products as backup, so as to thoroughly promote the Legend brand. This is also in line with what Deputy Director Xu mentioned before, which is to give users more choices."

"These five are all outstanding graduates from various universities this year. They are just right to assist Deputy Director Xu in designing new products."

Was it decided by the three top leaders?

Then there was no need for Xu Damao to refute. Although he always felt uncomfortable, if someone really came to help with the design... at least it would be less labor-intensive to draw pictures and develop new products by himself, so Xu Damao did not resist this arrangement.

We are all here to earn foreign exchange for the country. I will accept your placing of personnel there.

If I can really train a few designers, I will have made a contribution to the country. I need to expand my vision.

But when Xu Damao looked over, he saw that those college graduates were older than him, around 22-23 years old.

They were well-mannered, and the arrogance of a top student was almost written directly on their faces. There were also two girls among them, who were quite pretty...

etc--

What is that black thing in the boy's hand?

Tape?!
