Chapter 643: Civilian Research Institute's Achievements
Liu Weimin frowned as he listened to Zhou Tian's words, but only sighed after he finished speaking.
"Xiaotian, you're not the only one who knows these things. I've known about them for a long time, too. But even if we know, what can we do?"
As he spoke, Liu Weimin picked up the teacup and drank a sip of tea. He said bitterly.
"In the final analysis, we lack talent, equipment, technology, and everything. However, it takes time to train talent. As for advanced equipment, the country is so big, when will it be our turn? I also know that you developed advanced machine tools in the research institute, but the number of machine tools needed by the military alone is not a small number. If we have to wait for our turn, how long will it take?"
"Technicians, that sounds good, but how many of them actually have the right skills? You know that without me telling you!"
“Each of these is a difficult problem to solve!”
After that, Liu Weimin stood up, put his hands behind his back, and paced, saying: "It is precisely because we have so many difficulties that we asked you, Xiaotian, to come here. As long as it can help the development of the factory and change the lives of the people, no matter what the problem is, we will support you!"
"So, Xiaotian, whatever ideas you have can be implemented. This is our common understanding, isn't it?"
Turning around, Liu Weimin looked at Zhou Tian with eyes full of expectation.
"Yes, I understand Secretary Liu!"
Zhou Tian took a deep breath and nodded heavily. In an instant, he felt a weight on his shoulders.
Time flies, three months have passed.
During the three months, Zhou Tian summarized the problems of each factory. First, he completed the "Worker Safety Code" for worker safety issues, and then, through the government's leadership, invited representatives from each factory to come for training and study.
We hope that through safety codes, we can minimize the safety issues for workers in factories, and we will select a small group to form a safety inspection team to conduct inspections in various factories from time to time. As long as any safety issues arise among the management of the factory, the factory director will be directly held accountable, and in serious cases, he will be directly dismissed.
The inspection team consists of three people appointed by the government, and the remaining three are randomly selected from various factories. This avoids mutual communication between team members and ensures the fairness of the team.
Afterwards, after completing the safety code, Zhou Tian selected engineers from all factories to form the SX Comprehensive Research Institute. The purpose of the institute was to research civilian technology and complete the upgrade and replacement of equipment in various factories in the province.
The third action was to establish a large number of vocational schools, and to transfer technicians from various factories to vocational schools for training. Among them, teachers from vocational schools in the suburbs of Changping, Sijiucheng were hired to provide vocational training to a large number of technicians.
Thereby strengthening the capabilities of technicians in each factory.
Of course, all of this was the final result of discussions between Zhou Tian and Secretary Liu. Fortunately, with Secretary Liu's support, everything went very smoothly. The only difference was that Zhou Tian had not yet entered the research institute, so the research progress was a bit slow.
Within three months, Zhou Tian was very busy trying to eliminate the drawbacks of various factories. At the same time, in order to prevent the development of the factories from being constrained by conservative ideas, he established a balance between the trade union system and the management system.
As long as workers find that factory leaders are corrupt or inactive, they can report it to the trade union. After the union investigates, if the factory leaders are confirmed to have committed the crime, they can directly investigate. If the evidence is conclusive, the factory can re-elect the factory leaders.
Increasing the rights of the union was the first step Zhou Tian took in the factory. In order to make the union fair, Zhou Tian racked his brains to come up with such a solution. Although he also knew that no matter how strict and fair an organization was, there would be loopholes, but now he could only make the transition in this way temporarily.
To put it bluntly, what he actually wants to do now is to integrate and merge a large number of factories to complete the overall upgrade and transformation. Unfortunately, the time is too short now.
If you want to completely merge and integrate all the factories in the province, it will not be accomplished in a short period of time.
Only after completing a series of union reorganizations did Zhou Tian go to the Civilian Research Institute with ease.
Zhou Tian had studied a lot of civilian technology before. Now studying civilian technology again can be said to be like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut. It is extremely simple, especially since he has actually been involved in these devices before.
Such as threshers, tillage machines, water pumps, well-drilling machines, deep well machines, water pumps, irrigation machines, three-wheeled transporters, combine harvesters, flour mills, oil presses, and so on in civilian technology.
In short, after Zhou Tian joined, the research results of the entire Civilian Science and Technology Research Institute instantly burst out with a large number of technological crystals, and countless civilian technologies were delivered to the machinery factory through the institute.
The various machine tool problems of the machinery factory had been solved as early as under Zhou Tian's contact. Combined with the operation of various semi-CNC machine tools, it can be said that the equipment of TY Machinery Factory is now one of the best in the whole of China.
With the blueprints and the help of engineers from the research institute, various machines were continuously produced and deployed in rural areas throughout the province.
As the deep well machines were brought into the countryside as the first batch of machines, the Red Star Research Institute of Sijiu City distributed high-yield grain seeds to various rural areas through the Ministry of Agriculture, and the rural areas throughout SX began a vigorous self-rescue operation.
Especially as deep wells were drilled and there was no shortage of water, people's enthusiasm was high. Then, with the introduction of various measures by the provincial government, the public grain tax was reduced by one third. It can be said that everyone's enthusiasm was mobilized.
The changes in SX Province naturally attracted the attention of several surrounding provinces. After knowing the reasons for the changes, several neighboring provinces immediately purchased a large number of various equipment from the machinery factory through it.
As a result, the machinery factory alone has had this year's orders scheduled for next year, the factory's profits have increased significantly, and the workers' welfare has also improved accordingly.
Soon, in June, after completing the transformation and upgrading of various equipment in the machinery factory, the Civilian Research Institute turned from the machinery factory to the textile factory. After a month of day and night research, a new generation of textile machines was manufactured by the machinery factory.
When the first textile machine appeared in the textile factory, after debugging, both the engineers from the research institute and the director of the textile factory were shocked by the efficiency of the new generation of textile machines.
Compared with traditional sewing machines, textile machines can be said to have opened a door to technology for them!
