Siheyuan: Taking over the steel mill

After all, his goal is to achieve the effect of the drawing. No matter how these people understand it, as long as it can be produced according to the drawing, it will be fine.

Only those old employees in their fifties and sixties can understand this outdated technology, while others can only watch or help.

Because they have no experience in producing this old-fashioned **.

At this time, the old employees were very proud and began to study the drawings with great interest.

"The crawler tracks here should be the old crawler track structure, which can still be manufactured based on our current production line."

"I think these guide wheels only need the rims. Since the factory manager requires the old ** structure, there is no need to produce other redundant parts."

“To change to the old-style design, the entire upper part of the tractor would need to be adjusted.”

"Let's modify it according to our existing production line. If the design changes too much, we won't be able to make it at all."

Everyone discussed the drawings, and started to study them one by one.

At first, these old employees were worried that the drawings drawn by Su Chen would be too complicated and difficult to understand, but they didn't expect that they would touch upon an area that they were familiar with.

As a result, the old employees seemed particularly excited and determined to prove their own value with practical actions and show it to Su Chen.

This is the only way to demonstrate Su Chen's correct decision to acquire the tractor factory, and at the same time show his backbone as a worker of the old tractor factory.

They have always had a spirit of not giving up: if the current environment is good, they will be able to produce all the products.

With this belief in mind, they devoted all their efforts to studying the design drawings.

Seeing that everyone was so engaged and focused in the discussion, Su Chen did not disturb them any further.

"With the inspiration from this blueprint, we must build the tractor that the factory director wants in the next few days!" "Of course I can do it. I still have enough energy to stay up all night to finish the work!"

Su Chen turned and left. Listening to the excited discussions of several old employees, he smiled with satisfaction. These old predecessors in the tractor factory did a good job. As soon as they got the design drawings, they knew what to do next. However, they still did not understand Su Chen's good intentions in devoting himself to civilian products.

If it is **, it is just a tractor with tracks.

Su Chen shook his head slightly, thinking that the workers in the tractor factory still had a lot of room to learn about this. Even though some young people didn't know much about it, they were also using their own practical actions to try their best to help the elders analyze the design intent of the drawings as soon as possible and complete the development.

In the production area, everyone was busy thinking about all the areas in the design that could be further improved. Seeing the workers' enthusiasm and drive, Su Chen felt that the day to get the new tractor was not far away.

Even if the design he drew looks rough, it doesn’t matter whether the material is old or new, the most important thing is whether it is practical. The first criterion for making a finished product is whether it can meet market demand, rather than just piling up high-end materials.

When Su Chen designed this product from the beginning, he did not intend to make it very sophisticated.

Because he knows the potential buyers well and clearly understands their needs. Whether the product is high-end and layered is important, but in the end it all comes down to the actual needs of the users.

Customer needs are always the most important issue to consider when developing products.

Su Chen was confident that the design he provided would meet Colonel Ka's requirements. As soon as he left the tractor factory, he told the driver to take him back to the steel mill.

The driver of the steel mill had been waiting outside for a while, and he would not move the car at will before receiving specific instructions.

Although Su Chen's diagram is simple, there are still several technical obstacles that need to be properly handled. It is estimated that it will take two or three days for the tractor factory to produce a trial sample vehicle.

During this period, Su Chen was not idle. He would continue to guide the various manufacturing operations of the steel rolling mill.

Now that the tractor factory part has been taken care of, the next step is the outer layer of armor, and this work will depend on the steel rolling mill to complete.

Based on this consideration, Su Chen did not go home to rest, but came to the steel mill again. After getting off the car, Su Chen immediately went to find Assistant Zhang.

"Excuse me, Assistant Zhang, where is our new worker?" Assistant Zhang hurriedly guided Su Chen to the newest factory production line.

Since Su Chen had not yet assigned clear tasks to the newly recruited employees, he only asked them to familiarize themselves with the basic operations of the production line and the types of materials currently being produced in advance.

In the first two days after joining the company, the new employees adapted well to the new job. The operation procedures of the machinery and equipment were not difficult to master, and they could easily handle the workload required at the current stage.

Because of this, many novices have become proficient in operating mechanical equipment, which has greatly relieved the pressure on the production line.

Su Chen took big steps forward and arrived next to the new workers.

Although these people have only recently joined and have not yet fully integrated into the assembly line environment; even so, they have begun to participate in production practices with the company of more experienced people, but they occasionally seem a little clumsy when operating.

Therefore, they are also unable to take on overly complex tasks.

Suchen did not expect to discover any elite talents among this group of employees; in fact, the reason he recruited so many people was simply because there was a widespread basic labor shortage in the company.

For example, he immediately planned the work projects for these new employees. "From now on, your job is to manufacture 20mm thick steel plates in this workshop." While talking, Su Chen took out a design he had drawn on the road and hung it on the notice board. "The required steel form is very simplified, just manufacture it according to this pattern."

Manufacturing steel plates with a thickness of 20 mm can be easily achieved with the help of mechanical equipment. Even though most of them have no experience in actually operating the relevant machines, they can quickly master this process. The design of the plates to be processed is not complicated and only needs to be slightly trimmed using cutting tools on the production line.

Regardless of the role they played in their previous workplace, it was quite simple to produce the five millimeter thick steel plates that met Su Chen's requirements.

Fortunately, there are also many experienced technical staff who can help new employees. Under the guidance of their predecessors, in less than half a day, new joiners should also be able to operate various machines skillfully.

Suchen's arrival greatly excited all the new joiners. Although most of them had never met Suchen in person, they were familiar with Mr. Zhang, who was responsible for the interview and recruitment.

When everyone saw Mr. Zhang respectfully accompanying Su Chen, they soon realized that this person should be the director of the steel plant who was well-known in the city.

Many people admired Suchen from the moment they saw him. He successfully saved a factory that was on the verge of bankruptcy, which was a unique example in the country. Therefore, Suchen established a lofty image in their hearts. They knew that once they became part of this steel plant, their quality of life would be guaranteed.

They learned from other old steel mill workers that their salaries had recently increased, and they were filled with hope that if they worked hard, they would be rewarded generously.

With a big order expert like Su Chen, everyone was sure that the steel plant would no longer be at any risk of bankruptcy.

However, what Su Chen did not expect was that the new employee cared more about the rise and fall of the steel plant than he did.

After issuing the production guidance drawings, he observed the operations of these new forces.

With basic induction training and an introduction to the various equipment on the production line, these personnel did not need much assistance to start working. After seeing the goals set by Suchen, they quickly began to reasonably allocate various production links.

Directed by several production team leaders from among the veteran employees, who are more familiar with the specific operations of the production line, the entire production process is in good order.

There is only one reason for choosing to sell such an old "tractor" to Colonel Ka, that is, Su Chen firmly believes that this type of "tractor" can help Colonel Ka achieve better results in agricultural development.

He is not a man who acts casually. His decision to do so is based on his consideration of the actual situation in the Black Continent.

The Black Continent has fertile land, which is extremely suitable for planting. There are few mountainous areas, and most of them are vast plains. Therefore, this traditional "tractor" is more suitable for promotion and use here. As for the simple and rough style produced, it was also specially designed by Su Chen.

According to the current production capacity of the Black Continent, it is difficult to ensure production efficiency if a new type of "tractor" is sent. In addition, the traditional "tractor" has another advantage, that is, it is easy to maintain, and the simpler the mechanical structure, the less likely it is to be damaged.

Su Chen firmly believed that the "tractor" produced by their factory would definitely win the approval of Colonel Ka.

Thinking of this, Su Chen looked at the new employees in the workshop who were full of energy, nodded with satisfaction and left. Although these new employees were novices, after a short training and with the guidance of senior employees, they were now able to handle various tasks on the production line.

Seeing Su Chen leave, the new employees began to discuss. "Why are you suddenly asking us to produce such a strange thing? What is this for?"

"Did you get another big order? You want to sell these things to other countries? Like Eagle Country?" "Wake up, there aren't so many big orders coming in every day."

The new employee was busy with his work and talking in a low voice. The senior worker next to him was full of questions but didn't say much. He just urged: "Let's not meddle in the factory director's affairs. Just do your own job well."

"You are still chatting here. If you earn less than one cent based on the piecework salary, you will lose several cents. Think about whether you want to chat anymore." After hearing the reprimand from the team leader, the new employees immediately stopped talking and lowered their heads to concentrate on their work. Since they lost their original jobs and came to this well-paid steel mill, they never wanted to lose the opportunity to make money because of a few words of idle chat.

There are still hungry family members at home!

Seeing the new employees working hard, the experienced old employees feel relieved. These new members enjoyed good conditions as soon as they entered the factory, while they had to work hard in the factory for many years before they gradually gained a foothold.

Therefore, they always have a sense of superiority in front of these new employees; they also have a dignified attitude when supervising the new employees' work these days. Fortunately, although the treatment of new employees is good, it has not exceeded the standard of old employees. Therefore, they do not feel too threatened.

However, the arrival of so many new employees has to some extent caused potential career insecurity among old employees. If they do not perform well in the factory and successfully complete the targets, they may face the risk of being fired.
