The Pentium Era - South to North

Zhang Chen and the three of them arrived at the factory, but they were shocked to find that the factory was in a mess.

There was no problem in the cutting room, everything that needed to be cut had been cut, and there was no problem in the sewing workshop. Today's task could basically be completed, but at this last moment, there was a problem in the last link.

The cutting room was tense a few days ago. Zhao Zhigang sent people from the back office to the cutting room. The manpower at the back office was actually very tight, but it was still manageable. There were more than 900 workers in the sewing workshop working intensively every day, making more than 10,000 pieces. For each piece of clothing, more than 40 people followed them closely to keyhole, button, press, hang tags and package them.

It’s just that the clothes that are made in the workshop every day are also finished every day in the backend, and all the goods are put into storage. No one feels that there will be any problems in the backend, but they have forgotten one of the most critical things. This time and the past It's different. In the past, after their clothes were packaged, sent to the distribution center, and put into the warehouse, all the back-end work was completed.

But this time, after they finished packaging and sent it to the warehouse, it was not completed. There was still the last packing work to be done.

The bad thing is that there are no cartons. If there are cartons, after they finish packaging, they put every fifty pieces of one hundred strips or twenty-five sets into the corresponding cartons. Once the box is sealed, all the work is done. This final packing process does not add much time. At most, I get off work half an hour late every day, and this work is done.

But because there are no cartons, they can only wrap the finished products in large plastic bags and pile them neatly in the warehouse. More than 40,000 pieces of clothing are piled up into a small mountain. Even today, when they pack them together, the boxes are still there. There are three specifications. The box mark of each box must be filled in with a marker, and the style of the box and the clothing must be matched.

The most annoying thing is their clothes. Many of them are still the same fabrics. They are piled up in piles. You don’t know which is which. The clothes piled there are not coded. You have to put the outside of each bag. Open the sealed large plastic bag and look at the tag of the clothes inside to find out what style it is.

At the beginning, the supervisor arranged for three people to do the packing work. She thought that it was just a matter of packing a box, and three people should be enough.

They took a package from the hill-like pile of clothes, opened the plastic bag outside, checked the model number, sealed the plastic bag back, and then found the corresponding carton from the three sizes of cartons. Use a marker to fill in the corresponding content on the box label.

Then seal the box. When sealing the box, the two horizontal and vertical sealing tapes must be of the same length, otherwise several boxes will be stacked together and it will be ugly. This alone will stump a few behind the scenes. They I have never done the job of sealing boxes before. With the tape in my hand, I don’t seem to be very obedient.

After the box is sealed, put the whole package of clothes in, and then you still need to seal the box, two horizontally and one vertically. The sealing tapes still need to be the same length, otherwise you will have the same white hair down there.

The most time-consuming thing is to fill in the box mark, because it contains the gross and net weights, and the gross and net weights of each style are different. They have to find this style from the more than 200 styles on several pages, and then put the following The recorded gross and net data must be filled in again, which takes time to find and fill in.

The three people worked for an hour. Later, the supervisor came over to take a look and sealed less than 20 boxes. The supervisor thought that they were just trying to do foreign work and scolded them in anger. They were not convinced and asked the supervisor to try it himself. The supervisor When I tried it myself, I found that the entire sealing process really took four or five minutes to complete, and I immediately realized the seriousness of the problem.

Based on this calculation, even if all the people behind me came to do this work until ten o'clock in the evening, they would not be able to pack all the more than a thousand boxes, not to mention that I would not be able to spare a single person.

The clothes in the workshop are still being shipped out. For these more than 3,000 sets, I have to finish packaging all the keyhole buttons, ironing, and hanging tags, and I only have a few hours.

What's even more serious is that there are still more than 8,000 pieces of old models that have not yet had their tags replaced. There are not many processes. Just cut them, hang them, and repackage them. But all the simple processes only need to be done more than 8,000 times. , it is a very long process that requires you to raise your hands more than 8,000 times. In the end, you will not be able to raise your hands, right?

Later, the supervisor called Zhao Zhigang. Zhao Zhigang ran over and took a look and was shocked.

He also discovered a problem, why filling boxes of labels is slow, that is, the middle-aged and elderly women in rural areas who are doing the work are basically uneducated. There are so many English letters in the model number, and they can't even read, let alone speak and write. They traced the model number completely according to the list. There were many letters and they were traced wrongly.

Zhao Zhigang immediately called Zheng Huihong over and asked her people to come over to help. After Zheng Huihong and the others came over, the speed of filling in the boxes and labels was faster, but other processes were still the same, including unpacking, finding styles, and finding gross and net weights. The order of filling, marking, sealing, packaging, cartoning, and sealing is a series of processes that cannot be reversed.

Even for them, two minutes per box is considered very fast. After working for an hour and sweating profusely, they only sealed thirty boxes. If this happened, Zhao Zhigang would cry again. He must have eight groups of people, It took five or six hours of continuous work to finish. Where could he find eight groups of people?

Zhao Zhigang asked Zheng Huihong if there was any other way. Zheng Huihong said yes, that is to simplify and professionalize all the processes.

"How to simplify and specialize?" Zhao Zhigang asked.

"I can send someone here to fill in the boxes. He doesn't have to worry about anything. He just takes the form and fills in all the boxes. There are more than a thousand boxes and it takes two or three hours to fill them out.

"Assign two or three people to do nothing else and just seal the boxes. In this way, you can seal hundreds of items in an hour. Then you only need to put the goods into the boxes, and then arrange for two or three people to seal the boxes, or wait for the few people in front. , after sealing it, just seal the top below."

After Zheng Huihong finished speaking, Zhao Zhigang nodded, yes, you are really a genius, but tell me, with the filled-in box, how do you find this style among the clothes in the pile? Crawling in like a mouse? Or take a bag of clothes and go to more than a thousand cartons to find the carton that belongs to it?

Zheng Huihong was asked.

When Zhang Chen and the others arrived, Zhao Zhigang, Zheng Huihong and the others were stumped by this problem.

Zhang Chen thought for a while and said he had a way. Zheng Huihong's plan was right and the fastest. He Hongmei would have to fill in all the box labels. Zheng Huihong, is your distribution center the most familiar with all the products? Basically Can you tell the difference by looking at the tag inside without opening the big plastic bag?

Zheng Huihong said yes, and Xiao Zhao said, so can I. I take stock at the distribution center every day.

Zhang Chen said ok, then, He Hongmei, you go fill in the box labels, Zheng Huihong, you and Xiao Zhao go to the basketball court, and based on this table, find a place for each of the more than 200 styles, just click on the front of the table Arrange the serial numbers in order and write the serial numbers on the ground.

Others, go and seal the boxes. If He Hongmei writes them by serial number, it must be like fifteen numbers per number. Once you finish writing, you will seal one number each. After sealing, you will be responsible for taking the empty boxes to the stadium to respond. The serial numbers are arranged one by one.

Zhao Zhigang, take a few people from the cutting bed and move the bags of clothes out of the warehouse and let Xiao Zhao and Zheng Huihong identify them. They can tell them at a glance. Tell him the number, and he will go to the stadium to find the number. That place If there is a box, put it directly in the box. If there is no box, put it on the ground. Seal the front of the box and seal it on the court.

Everyone thinks this method is very good, and it may be the fastest method at the moment.

Everyone immediately took action, and the huge basketball court was gradually filled with boxes of goods and cartons. At this time, the sky gradually darkened, and the lights on the top of the court turned on, illuminating the people on the court. People are as busy as ants.

Zhang Chen looked at his watch. It was already past five o'clock. The container truck could drive in from outside the factory at any time. Zhang Chen found that the more than 8,000 old models had not been moved yet, and inside the factory, the workers upstairs were still rushing. In other departments, whether they are back-end or cutting-room, their wealthy personnel are already busy on the court, and it is impossible to allocate more manpower.

Zhang Chen made a call to the design center and asked Ge Ling, how many of you have not got off work yet?

Ge Ling stretched her head and looked at it, and said to Zhang Chen, eleven.

"You find the second-hand guy immediately, let him drive my car, and call a taxi. All of you, come to the factory immediately to help with the work." Zhang Chen said, he came in Xiao Zhao's car. The car was still parked on Stadium Road.

"Okay, Mr. Zhang, Xiao Sheng just delivered something here." Ge Ling said.

"Okay, then you just take Erhuo and Xiaosheng's car and come right away."

Ge Ling said yes.

Twenty minutes later, Erhuo and Xiao Sheng arrived. When the people in the car got off, Zhang Chen saw Zhao Jingjing coming with them. She heard that there was a rush for work in the factory and followed her. Zhang Chen Say yes, thank you, we are short of people.

Zhang Chen handed Ge Ling, Zhao Jingjing and the others to the back-end supervisor and told her to quickly arrange for them to change the tags. The back-end supervisor was overjoyed and said she was worried about this.

She quickly took a dozen designers to provide back-up support.

As soon as they left, the container truck also drove in from outside the factory gate. As soon as the container truck arrived, the atmosphere in the factory suddenly became tense. Everyone knew in their hearts that there was not much time left for them.

The container truck stopped in front of the office building. The driver stretched his head and saw the basketball court in front. He was relieved that he could turn around later.

He parked the car and jumped out of the car. Zhao Zhigang walked towards him. The two greeted him, and Zhang Chen heard him say: "You are a forced-raised person. It's hard to find this place."

Zhang Chen was happy when he heard this. He quickly called the second person and told him, go and see if this container truck driver is one of your fellow countrymen. Your task today is to accompany him and take him to the canteen. I want to Just ask the chef to fry whatever you want to eat, and fry a few more. If you want to drink whatever you want, just drink it with him and let him cook it for me.

"You're a forced driver, why do you want to deal with him?" The idiot was puzzled.

"I'm probably going to be very nervous today. If you can help us buy a few hours in the end, it might be him, do you understand?"

The second-rate guy understood and hurriedly walked towards the driver and Zhao Zhigang. The three of them stood and chatted for a while. Zhang Chen saw the second-rate guy put his arm around the driver's shoulders and walked towards the canteen. As he walked, he raised the OK sign to Zhang Chen. gesture.
