The three hundred and eighteenth chapter is also indecent to come and go

Called by Nagai Masaki, Li Weidong turned around again and asked, Is there anything else Mr. Nagai has to do?

Mr. Li, please sit down, I have something to say! Nagai Masaki asked Li Weidong to sit down again.

After the two sides sat down again, Nagai Masaki said, Mr. Li, I think that according to the current work progress, this microwave oven production line cannot be put into use within the time specified in the contract!

Li Weidong smiled coldly and said nothing.

Nagai Masaki said, If the microwave oven production line cannot be activated at the time stipulated in the contract, then Mr. Li, you are bound to bear the risk of breach of contract! The penalty for breach of contract is hundreds of thousands of dollars!

Li Weidong continued to sneer and still did not speak.

Nagai Masaki continued: I think Mr. Li is definitely not willing to breach the contract, right? So I have a bold suggestion. I can find a way to persuade the top management of our club to terminate this contract!

Mr. Nagai, what do you mean by termination of the contract? Li Weidong asked knowingly.

It's just that we ship the microwave oven production line back, and the money for the production line will be returned to you. This contract for purchasing the production line, we have never signed. In this way, you don't have to bear the risk of breach of contract! Nagai Masaki answered.

Li Weidong shook his head without hesitation: That's not good, I have already built a factory for this microwave oven production line! In this case, wouldn't my money for building a factory be wasted?

Nagai Masaki immediately persuaded: Mr. Li, even if there is no microwave oven production line, your factory can produce other things! As the foundry of Xizhi Electric, it is a matter of time to expand the production capacity! You can build the factory well in advance. Don't waste it.

Li Weidong pretended to be thinking, as if weighing the pros and cons.

Nagai Masaki saw that this matter was interesting, and he said earnestly: Mr. Li, this suggestion of mine is absolutely beneficial to you. A set of production lines that cannot be used is no different from scrap iron. Use this production line to exchange valuable funds!

Li Weidong nodded thoughtfully, and then he sighed: Mr. Nagai, I need to think about it!

Nagai Masaki also knew that it was impossible to make a decision right away, so he said, Okay, if Mr. Li has thought it through, I welcome Mr. Li at any time!

Nagai Masaki personally sent Li Weidong out of the door, looking at the back of Li Weidong's departure, a smug smile appeared on his face.

It seems that it won't take long for my mission to be completed, and then I will be able to return to Japan! Masaki Nagai thought triumphantly.

Nagai Masaki did not know that after Li Weidong left, he immediately went to Tang Renjie to check the work progress of the scientific research team.

In the laboratory, Tang Renjie held a disassembled magnetron in his hand.

The opening introduced: This is the thick and short cathode lead. When the microwave oven is used, the cathode must be connected to high voltage, so it will cause the temperature to be too high. However, I have encountered this problem in the fifth component factory before.

The solution we adopted is to use a tungsten wire to make a spiral shape, and to have the ability to emit electrons after being heated to a specified temperature by a current. This cathode has the advantages of short heating time and strong resistance to electron bombardment. Now, just do a few more tests and adjust the heating power of the cathode.

Li Weidong nodded in understanding, then asked, Gong Tang, apart from this cathode temperature problem, what other difficulties do we need to solve?

We also need to solve the problem of low output power of the magnetron. Tang Renjie paused, then continued; If the output power of the magnetron is low, the heating effect of the microwave oven will be poor, and the heating will be slow and the firepower will be insufficient. This is also the most common situation we encounter in our experiments.

Have you found the reason? Li Weidong asked.

Tang Renjie smiled confidently and said, The reason is that the magnetic field of the magnetron anode is weakened, which leads to the decline of the magnetic field.

Li Weidong's face was confused, indicating that he didn't understand at all.

Tang Renjie went on to explain: When the microwave oven is working, the cathode and anode will only form an electric field. Under the action of the electric field, the cathode emits electrons to the anode, and the anode receives the electrons to generate an anode current. The electrons resonate when they reach each sector-shaped anode. When the cavity is opened, it oscillates according to its resonant frequency, while the constant magnetic field generated by the ring magnet is perpendicular to the direction of the high-voltage electric field...

The more Tang Renjie explained, the more question marks appeared on Li Weidong's head. He really couldn't understand this kind of professional knowledge.

Li Weidong patiently listened to Tang Renjie's explanation, and then he asked, Tang Gong, can all the problems you mentioned be solved?

This problem can be solved by connecting the anode voltage of the magnetron and the leakage inductance transformer to supply power. Of course, it has to be explored through experiments! Tang Renjie replied.

It's good if you can solve it! Li Weidong paused, and then continued; Gong Tang, the dozen or so apprentices I sent to you, you can order them as much as you can, and let them do the repetitive experiments. That's it, don't worry about wasting experimental materials, just let them practice!

The dozen or so apprentices Li Weidong mentioned were the dozen or so high school graduates that Lu Jianli helped recruit.

Originally, Li Weidong planned to let these dozen apprentices learn a little bit of technology from Japanese engineers, but Masaki Nagai was basically here to cause trouble, so Li Weidong immediately changed his plan and sent these dozen apprentices to Tang Renjie to fight.

Although the ability of these high school graduates is not enough to engage in R\u0026D work, they can learn a little bit of knowledge from these serious engineers.

...

Three days later, in the afternoon, there were five microwave ovens in front of Li Weidong, and Tang Renjie stood proudly beside him.

Tang Renjie's technical team finally overcame the final difficulty in microwave oven production. The first batch of five microwave ovens that were officially produced were all placed in front of Li Weidong.

As a veteran engineer of No.5 Component Factory, Tang Renjie is very good in theory and practice.

In the past, Tang Renjie studied microwave transistors used in the military industry. Now, it is not easy to make microwave ovens for civilian use!

Moreover, Tang Renjie didn't start researching microwave ovens until he came to Qinghe. When this research team was first established, Tang Renjie had already started research on magnetrons and had a certain theoretical basis.

After arriving in Qinghe, with Hitachi's microwave oven production line, it is possible to combine theory with practice and achieve multiplier effect with half the effort.

Therefore, Tang Renjie led the scientific research team to overcome the difficulties of microwave oven production in just over a month.

Li Weidong touched the five microwave ovens and asked subconsciously, All five are qualified?

Tang Renjie nodded smugly: All of them have been tested, and all five units have passed the test! Director Li, do you want to try some hot steamed buns?

Okay, let's try it! Li Weidong nodded.

Tang Renjie took a cold steamed bun, put it in the microwave, heated it for 30 seconds, and when he took it out, it was already soft.

I tested it and found that this steamed bun is just hot for forty-five seconds, but a minute is over. Thirty seconds is still a little hard. Tang Renjie said.

Li Weidong squeezed the steamed bun in his hand, and sighed in his heart: A microwave oven was made so quickly, and a suite in Shanghai City is worth the money!

Then Li Weidong said, Gong Tang, you and your team have worked hard these days. Tomorrow I will have someone send 30,000 yuan over and give you bonuses!

When they heard the prize money, everyone cheered.

Tang Renjie's scientific research team has a total of more than a dozen people. If it is 30,000 yuan, each person can get an average of nearly 2,000 yuan. Even in a big city, it is equivalent to half a year's salary of a state-owned enterprise employee!

Li Weidong knows that if he wants to retain talents, he must not be stingy in spending money. If you don't give the money in place, talents will not give you their lives.

In the early 1990s, talents were very scarce. At that time, the best talents in the country were monopolized by state-owned enterprises and public institutions. If private enterprises wanted to poach talents, the only way was to spend money.

This is the most obvious point in the wave of the sea after 1992, in which private enterprises often offered five or even ten times the remuneration in order to poach talents from state-owned enterprises.

Especially the kind of self-employed small bosses, many of them have little culture, relying on the word break to complete the initial capital accumulation. These small bosses have a ruthless entrepreneurial spirit. For technical talents, they spend a lot of money and simply.

A young engineer in a state-owned enterprise with a monthly salary of more than 100 yuan goes to a small private boss in the Pearl River Delta to work, and his salary rises directly to more than 1,000 yuan just for technical instruction.

Under the temptation of this kind of high salary, many technical and technical people left the system one after another, and going to sea became the most popular word at that time.

30,000 yuan, for Li Weidong, is just a drizzle, but it can be exchanged for the loyalty of the entire technical team, which is definitely cost-effective.

Li Weidong sent someone to the cafeteria, brought the leftover meals at noon, and began to test the five microwave ovens. It didn't take long for the aroma of the meals to waft in the entire laboratory.

At this moment, Ma Zhongyi came over from outside.

Weidong, there is news from the hotel that Masaki Nagai wants to see you!

This Nagai Masaki can't sit still anymore! Li Weidong smiled slightly: I've already made a microwave oven, and it's time for a showdown with Nakano Co., Ltd.!

...

Nagai Masaki stared at Li Weidong with a victorious attitude.

Mr. Li, what are your thoughts on the suggestion I made earlier? Masaki Nagai asked.

Li Weidong smiled calmly, and then said: I've thought about it, we have an idiom in China called Being Your Word, which means that what you say should be counted and be trusted.

Now that we have signed a contract, I naturally have to abide by the credit. Isn't it often said in the Western world that there must be a spirit of contract? So I intend to continue the contract we signed!

Nagai Masaki never expected that, after waiting for several days, he waited for such an answer, and he hurriedly persuaded: Mr. Li, the microwave oven production line is destined to be unable to start on time, and you will face the risk of default by then, but you are We will pay huge liquidated damages!

But if I return the production line to you, I also have a lot of losses. Li Weidong said.

How could that be? We'll pay you back! Nagai Masaki said.

What about the interest? Li Weidong continued: I spent one million dollars to buy your microwave oven production line. It has been half a year since the payment was made, and I still have to bear the half-year interest.

Our loan interest in China is very high, up to 12%. Even if you pay me back the one million dollar loan, I still lost more than 60,000 US dollars in half a year!

Mr. Li, you must know that the liquidated damages are more than $60,000! If you breach the contract, your losses will be even more! Nagai Masaki said.

Mr. Nagai is very reasonable, but in my opinion, since it's all about losses, I might as well take a gamble!

Li Weidong's eyes instantly became sharp: I won't change the factory, and I don't plan to buy an air conditioner. I decided to start the microwave oven production line directly!

Nagai Masaki was stunned for a moment, and then asked sharply, Mr. Li, do you mean that you don't need our technical support?

I need it, but will you give me technical support? Li Weidong shook his head and continued; From beginning to end, you have not given me any technical support! Not only do you have no technical support, but you are still making things difficult for me!

Mr. Li, you misunderstood, I didn't make things difficult for you, I just asked you to abide by the production standards we set! Masaki Nagai defended.

Well, I don't want to waste time on this meaningless topic. Let me put it another way. I can't meet your Japanese production standards, so I will follow our Chinese production standards! Li Weidong said. said.

However, Masaki Nagai smiled disdainfully: Mr. Li, you are too whimsical. Do you think microwave ovens are an easy-to-produce electrical appliance? You are wrong! The production of microwave ovens is very technical, and we don't have our technology. Support, you can't make a qualified microwave oven!

Really? I don't think so! Li Weidong shook his head and continued; I believe we can overcome difficulties!

Mr. Li, I appreciate your self-confidence, but self-confidence can't solve scientific problems! If nothing else, just adjusting the magnetron is a complex and advanced technology! It took our engineers a lot of time to master it. With this technology, without our technical support, it is impossible for you to complete this work! Nagai Masaki said proudly.

Mr. Nagai, I am disappointed, we have solved the problem of magnetron regulation. Li Weidong said.

What? Nagai Masaki was stunned for a moment, then shook his head violently: This is impossible! With your Chinese technical level, how can you solve such a complex technical problem!

Mr. Nagai, you underestimate our Chinese technology!

Li Weidong said, and clapped his hands outside the door, and Ma Zhongyi walked in with a microwave.

Mr. Nagai, this is the microwave oven that our factory just rolled off the production line! Li Weidong said.

It's really finished! Nagai Masaki sucked in a breath of cold air.

Masaki Nagai looked at the microwave, his heart was numb, he tried to calm himself down, and then said stubbornly; Mr. Li, it is not difficult to assemble a microwave, but whether the assembled product can be used normally, Not necessarily!

It seems that Mr. Nagai doesn't trust me! Then I will demonstrate on the spot whether my microwave oven can be used normally!

Li Weidong said, picked up the microwave and walked to the power supply, plugged it in, and took a few slices of toast from Ma Zhongyi next to him, put it into the microwave, and twisted it for thirty seconds.

The microwave oven started and made a humming sound. Thirty seconds later, only a ding sound was heard, and the microwave oven stopped working.

Using chopsticks, Li Weidong took the slice of bread out of the microwave oven, and turned to look at Masaki Nagai: Mr. Nagai, would you like to try it? Or I'll use the microwave again to warm you up with a glass of milk?

At this time, Masaki Nagai already realized that since Li Weidong dared to demonstrate the microwave oven in front of him, it means that the microwave oven production line has been activated and can produce qualified microwave ovens!

Without our technical support, how could the microwave oven production line be put into operation normally! There are so many technical difficulties in the production process that the Chinese have overcome? How did they do it in such a short period of time?

Nagai Masaki suddenly realized two problems:

It is impossible for Li Weidong to solve all the technical problems of the microwave oven production line in just a few days.

Solving these technical problems definitely requires a professional technical team!

Do you have a technical team for microwave oven production? Masaki Nagai asked.

Yes, this summer, I have set up a technical team to study microwave ovens.

Li Weidong didn't hide it, he went on to explain: I didn't plan to use my technical team so soon, I still hope for your technical guidance, after all, your technology should be more mature.

But after you came, I just found out that you didn't intend to give me technical guidance, but only made trouble. So I called in my technical team and started to solve the various problems of the microwave oven production line by myself.

Fortunately, my technical team are all experienced engineers. They have studied microwaves for many years, so it only took more than a month to solve the problems on the production line, and our microwave oven production line can be used!

More than a month? Masaki Nagai calculated the time, and he finally understood: I just came here at that time! You have already given up our technical support and let your own technical team intervene!

But you are still negotiating with me, and you also wrote to the headquarters to complain to me, promised to install air conditioners, and even said that you would consider my suggestion! Even now, you have made a finished product, and you are still talking about $60,000 in interest to me! So you've been playing with me!

You played me first! Li Weidong snorted coldly: We have an old saying in China, calling it out is not indecent!
