Chapter 269: Hardworking Director Ma

“The recruitment work started before you left.

Now we have completed the recruitment, and the number is the 80 people that was decided before.

But with these machines coming, isn’t it a little less?”

Cao Tianwei once again mentioned the issue of the number of workers.

Hearing this, Fang Xiang was once again certain that the number of a thousand or eight hundred that Cao Tianwei had mentioned was not nonsense.

It turned out that I was too conservative at the beginning.

"That's it for now...

Second Automobile Works is about to be listed.

Further expansion of Luoqi's establishment at this critical juncture is not only unnecessary but also likely to give rise to criticism.

The bad news is that the state will no longer transfer workers for Second Automobile Works from other places to us, so we have to find a way ourselves.

The good news is that I think the pre-recruitment work can start.

For the first batch, let’s just have one thousand people as you said.

Priority will be given to those who have received education, are educated and have skills.

When Second Automobile Works was listed and the staff was determined, they were assigned to the factory.

But still follow the old method.

Old employees should be paired with new employees to try not to delay current production work.

Senior employees with outstanding performance can be given the title of deputy team leader to do the job first.

Once things stabilize, I will become a team leader.

But you have to keep a close eye on the job transfer process.

This door cannot be opened randomly.

Once Second Automobile Works is listed, if all these precious products are transferred to other industries, the production efficiency will be difficult to improve.

Even if you are promoted to the position of workshop director, you still have to go down to the front line to keep an eye on things.

I can’t sit in the office every day.”

Fang Xiang pondered for a moment and made a decision.

Now that he is standing at a higher level, he deeply understands why it is so difficult to switch from a worker to a civil servant in this era.

It’s not that I’m unwilling to give this opportunity.

But once they change their job, those experienced and skilled workers will go to the office.

If these old tricks are missing on the front line, production efficiency will drop visibly.

Now is a critical period. If the output drops, the entire management will be held responsible.

Moreover, this year's planned tasks were completed ahead of schedule, which is a good thing because we worked hard and fast.

But in the eyes of the people above you in the department, the salary you were given was too little.

There is no doubt that there will be more tasks next year.

If a large number of skilled workers change jobs, the additional tasks next year will be difficult to complete.

Although Fang Xiang was not worried about or expecting to be promoted as a result of the planned tasks, he did not want to leave any excuses.

"Okay, I took note of it.

Now there is a very serious problem.

Most of the newly arrived machine tools and equipment have nowhere to be placed.

The original factory buildings have all been relocated.

Nowadays, if we make room, not only will it waste time, it will also easily cause damage to the machine and delay production.

If we build a new factory, it will be hard to say when this will happen.

Now that winter is approaching, it’s becoming difficult to work on the construction site.

By the way, speaking of the construction site, we are hiring so many people, should we also put logistics on the agenda?"

Cao Tianwei nodded, regarding Fang Xiang's concern that the conversion from workers to regular employees would affect production.

He also understood it very well and naturally would not raise any objections.

But I immediately moved on to the new machine.

“Didn’t Second Automobile Works say they would start construction in the summer?

How is the progress of the project now? "

When Fang Xiang heard that Cao Tianwei did not have enough maintenance workshops, he immediately thought of Second Automobile Works.

Although Second Automobile Works has not been listed, the land and planning have been put in place in the summer.

Even the engineering team had five regiments.

We were working very hard at the beginning.

Unfortunately, Fang Xiang was busy designing BMW and finding sales channels at that time, and didn't pay any attention to it at all.

“The venue is too large, and with five groups, we have only achieved three connections and one leveling.

There is water, electricity, roads, and the ground is flat.

There are also some important factory buildings, the ones with the fastest progress have just emerged from the ground.

Even if we want to speed up the process temporarily and wait until the machine can be moved in and used, it is impossible.

I went there before you came back.

There is no need to think about moving the new machine over for the time being.

Otherwise, I wouldn’t ask you.”

Cao Tianwei said this while shaking his head.

"this..."

Fang Xiang was suddenly speechless.

The machinery and equipment he had brought back with great difficulty are now unusable.

Don’t you think this is infuriating?

Besides, it’s already mid-November.

The heating room has been turned on and the heating has started.

As for the project, there is no doubt that it cannot be completed ahead of schedule.

Because the current steel bar grades are not so bad, but the cement grades are still different from those in later generations.

Even in later times, it is not possible to work all year round without being affected by the weather.

Therefore, it is not impossible to carry out construction in winter, but projects done in winter are prone to various problems in summer.

The important factory buildings designed by Second Automobile Works are not ordinary houses. Their spans and depths are often dozens of meters.

If there is a crack or instability in any small place, a major accident may occur.

Especially last year, Henan Province experienced a cold winter that was rare in decades, with the temperature even soaring to more than 20 degrees below zero.

No one can guarantee what the situation will be like this winter.

If it is a pure steel structure, there is no problem, but now it is the 60s, a factory building with a pure steel structure?

I'm afraid I'm overthinking...

"How about we build the foundation and protection of the dormitory and small factory building first?

These are not affected by the weather.”

Cao Tianwei saw that Fang Xiang was also a little worried, and knew that he might not be able to think about these new machines this winter.

So he suggested.

“Why not ask the engineering corps for their opinion?

If they feel it's okay, then do it.

If they say no, then stop working and take a break.

Last winter was so cold that people were frozen to death.

There must not be any accidents this year."

After thinking about it for a while, Fang Xiang decided that he should listen to the professionals.

"In addition, what will so many engineering troops do in winter?

Last year there was only one group, so it was relatively easy.

With so many more people this year, food, clothing, shelter and shelter are all problems.

We'll have to see if there's anything we can do to help."

Thinking of the engineering corps, Fang Xiang felt a little sorry for those engineers.

These days, engineers are better in better places.

If you go to the mountains or remote areas, especially when the weather is bad, you will suffer a lot.

It's not ordinary suffering.

They are all soldiers of the people and children of ordinary people.

Fang Xiang couldn’t take care of what was far ahead, but he could help in any way that was right in front of him.

“Okay, I’ll discuss it with Lao Ma.

Lao Ma has been very busy recently, running back and forth every day.

From the way I look at him, I think he might be thinking about going to Second Automobile Works.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that Second Automobile Works is the future.

Luoqi has done a good job and has good conditions.

But the team is just a small unit.

Once the Second Automobile Works quota is released, I don’t know how many people will come to you.”

Cao Tianwei also nodded and had no objection to Fang Xiang's idea.

However, as the conversation went on, the topic of Lao Ma and Second Automobile Works came up.

“Let’s go and see.

When it comes to personnel matters like these, the higher-ups consider them more than we do, and it’s not our turn to have a say.

I can only guarantee that we are still together.

The old horse piece..."

Fang Xiang sighed.

Second Automobile Works is also part of the Third Line Project, a project coordinated and controlled by the state.

A large group of people were watching from behind as they advanced.

I don't have to worry, because Cao Tianwei was brought up by Professor Xu and has made so many contributions together with Fang Xiang.

There is definitely no need to worry about the future.

But Old Ma worked diligently and conscientiously for a year.

It is understandable that you want to go to Second Automobile Works together.

But his tenure as factory director was rather short, and his contribution... was just hard work at best.

Without anyone to push him, it would be difficult for him to get promoted to an important leadership position in Second Automobile Works.

As for the factory manager? Forget it.

However, Fang Xiang still has a very good impression of Lao Ma.

He knew exactly where his butt was, and he would do whatever Fang wanted to say.

Such a partner is hard to find.

Thinking of this, Fang Xiang came up with an idea.
