Chapter 49 Uncle, I want a computer Chief Engineer Li held the paper with the test results in his hand and did not tell Lu Peng the results immediately. Instead, he walked up to the testing equipment and took out the spring inside. The spring did not deform or break, and withstood the test of continuous tension and compression. Chief Engineer Li was speechless as to why the data from the testing equipment was better than the quality of the springs produced by the main factory! Lu Peng became anxious and tried to grab the note, but Chief Engineer Li dodged him. When Lu Shan saw this situation, he knew that things should be stable. Apart from anything else, the family shouldn’t worry about the price when buying New Year’s goods today, and Lin Yan should also be willing to buy herself two beautiful clothes. "Old Li, what's going on? Please show me, I'm so worried! Do you know that the door of the second branch (Lisheng) is blocked? I don't know if I can go back alive today!" Chief Engineer Li then said, "Old Lu, you have also worked as a technician in the factory for so many years. You know that the most important thing for us technicians is honesty." Lu Peng: "Why are you talking so much nonsense? Show me the report quickly to see if it has met the standards and whether it complies with the standards for the production of automobile front suspension springs by the main factory!"
Chief Engineer Li then handed the report to Lu Peng and said, "Did you buy springs from outside and come here for testing?" Lu Peng was delighted when he saw the report! "It's done! It's done! The quality of this sample is better than the one produced by your main factory! All indicators have met the standards, and the stiffness performance is 7% higher than yours." "I'm not buying shit from outside. I've improved the equipment and production process here to produce it. You can report directly to Mr. Yu and ask if you want to buy our products." One of the pillar industries in Jiangzhou City is automobile. The automobile industry has brought about many supporting industrial chains, and the front suspension spring produced by Jiangzhou Machinery Factory is one of them. But Jiangzhou Machinery Factory also faces competition from some private factories along the coast, which have lower production costs and better quality. In order to support old state-owned enterprises, Jiangzhou City encourages major automobile manufacturers to purchase springs produced by Jiangzhou Machinery through administrative means. But the current contradiction is the contradiction between the strong demand from major automobile companies and the low output, low quality and high selling price of Jiangzhou Machinery Factory. When it comes to the market economy, the invisible hand is more effective than the visible hand. Under the impact of the market economy, if Jiangzhou Machinery Factory is unable to improve in terms of technology and cost, then as soon as Jiangzhou City's support policy ends, they will be hit hard by the market economy. Now many automobile manufacturers are getting impatient waiting for the output of Jiangzhou Machinery Factory. If the output of the second branch can be increased to help with production, the main factory should be able to survive the crisis. No matter what, the Second Branch is our own company. We can’t let Jiangzhou Machinery Factory spend money to buy products from coastal areas and then put them in our own packaging! Chief Engineer Li immediately arranged for Lu Dehai and Lu Shan to rest in the reception room, and took Lu Peng to meet General Manager Yu. "Dad, when Lu Peng discusses cooperation with you later, you must insist on a 40% to 60% split. You get 40% and he gets 60%. Don't give up even a penny. I'll take care of the rest." "Forty percent? So high?" Lu Dehai had never thought about getting a share of the profits. He thought that he would be satisfied if he could get a salary of more than two thousand yuan a month. Lu Shan said, "In fact, with your skills, if you go to a factory in a coastal area, you can earn at least 4,000 to 5,000 yuan a month. If you take the springs you just produced to the main factory, you will be made the person in charge of the technical department." "We don't work too hard. As a partner with Lu Peng, we must get a share of the profits. If the factory does well in the future, you will also get shares." Lu Shan said at dinner that night: A man cannot be too poor and stable. Working won’t make him rich, but it will definitely make him poor and stable. This sentence gave Lu Dehai a lot of insights.
He thought that he had been doing odd jobs for more than ten years and could only barely support his family, and he didn't know what he had done. All the energy you put in is wasted. If Lu Shan had not been admitted to Jiangzhou University without taking an entrance exam and paying tuition fee, he would have had to grit his teeth and take on another part-time job to raise money for Lu Shan's tuition. "Okay!" Lu Dehai was not a person who did not know how to adapt, and he insisted on listening to advice. After a while, Lu Peng came out with a smile on his face, holding a stack of documents in his hand, which should be the contract. "Lao Lu, we are old acquaintances! You must supply the goods according to the requirements, don't let us off the hook!" Lu Peng said confidently, "Don't worry. The material supplier has come to my house and wants to cut off my debt. I dare not let him go." Chief Engineer Li added, "Purchasing and Finance have also told you that 30% of the first batch of payment will be credited to your account soon, yuan, and the balance will be paid after delivery." "We have enjoyed our cooperation with the first batch, and will give you big orders later." "Okay, I understand. Master Lu, let's go and eat hot pot!" Lu Dehai said: "I won't eat hotpot, I have something else to do in the evening." Lu Dehai is naturally not fond of socializing and only wants to do technology. It is precisely because of Lu Dehai's character that Lu Shan thinks he is not suitable for doing business. In addition to technology, what is more important in doing business is shamelessness. Lu Peng has this kind of temperament, but Lu Dehai does not. At the same time, Lu Dehai has skills, but Lu Peng does not, so the two have the possibility of cooperation. Seeing that Lu Dehai was unwilling to eat, Lu Peng said, "Okay, Master Lu, I'll tell Director Wang tomorrow and I'll process your formal employee status. You'll get 2500 a month and social security will be purchased for you." If Lu Shan hadn't said those words just now, Lu Dehai might have agreed. Lu Dehai stretched out his hand and made the number four. "Four thousand?" Lu Peng put away his smile. He was no longer in the mood to eat hotpot. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, four thousand is four thousand. We are very sincere and I'm only offering you this price!" If Lu Shan hadn't said hello in advance, Lu Dehai would definitely have agreed and even bought some wine to celebrate. He cleared his throat and said, "40-60, I'll split 40 and you'll split 60." It was really embarrassing. Lu Dehai was a little nervous, afraid that Lu Shan would disagree. Lu Peng was not happy at all and looked unhappy. Lu Shan said, "Uncle Lu, my dad will provide the technology and you will provide the equipment. This was agreed upon at the beginning." "With my dad's skills, let alone working in a coastal factory, even if he works in a Jiangzhou machinery factory, he would have to be paid four or five thousand. If it's just to earn four or five thousand, why would I follow you, Uncle Lu?" "But without me and my dad, Uncle Lu, you might not have any pants or clothes when you go back to the factory later." Lu Shan showed his white teeth. Lu Peng gritted his teeth and said, "Forty percent, forty percent!" Lu Shan nodded. "It's clearly signed in black and white. My dad is the chief technical engineer. He has to be involved in the quantity and price of the shipments. If there is a discrepancy even once, the cooperation will be cancelled."
Lu Peng knew that he could outwit those creditors, but he couldn't outwit Lu Shan. Lu Shan is good at math, and Lu Peng is most afraid of people who are good at math. He was not good at math when he was in school, and now for decades, he has nightmares about math exams. Lu Shan added, "Uncle Lu, I just looked at the contract. The order volume is quite large and the time required is urgent. However, there is only one device that can be used. If I refresh the system one by one, I may not be able to deliver the goods in time." Lu Peng: "If you have any requests, please raise them as soon as possible!" 陆山心中早就想好了，“如果有一台酷睿2E6300+1GB双通道+GeForce7900GS显卡+160GB硬盘的电脑再加17英寸显示器的电脑，应该能够加快刷电路板的速度。” "Uncle Lu, you don't have to write it down. I have written it all down. Here you go." Lu Shan tore off a page from the notebook he carried with him and handed it to Lu Peng. Lu Peng: “!!” Lu Peng wanted to cry. Apart from a bunch of equipment and factory buildings, he was penniless. How could he afford to buy a computer? The advance payment from Jiangzhou Machinery Factory had to be used to pay salaries and repay debts, and he couldn't use it. But don’t panic! My daughter Lu Meng seems to have one that she just bought at the beginning of this year! Lu Meng's playing computer games affects her studies. Hmm! It's a happy decision!
