Chapter 186 Chapter 184 The Steel Rolling Mill Is Like a Biological Father
China is crazy about infrastructure construction. Luo Cheng thought it was just after the reform and opening up. But it had only been a few days since the last time he came to the steel rolling mill. It seemed to Luo Cheng that the previous expansion of the steel rolling mill had not been started yet. This time, many large factories were being roofed. Some buildings already have one or two floors.
It can't be compared. The steel rolling mill has capital or financial support and is rich. Automobile manufacturing plants and factories dare not build large buildings and cannot afford steel structure roofs. Moreover, only five workshops can be built at a time, because warehouses, walls, medical rooms, canteens, security rooms, etc. also need to be built, all of which require the automobile factory to raise its own funds.
When entering the steel rolling mill, because it was not Luo Cheng who was driving, the guard at the steel rolling mill originally wanted to test him, but when Luo Cheng stretched his head out of the back seat, he let him go. Wang Hui, the accountant who was in the car, was immediately shocked. What kind of situation was this? If someone came to the automobile factory, even the director of the factory would have to register. When Luo Cheng entered the steel rolling mill, he could be let in as long as he showed his face.
Luo Chengcheng liked Wang Hui's unfamiliar expression and told her to be more respectful when she saw him in the future. I found a parking place and asked the temporary driver Wang Cheng to wait beside the car. Of course, it was okay to get out of the car and get some fresh air, as long as it didn't feel cold outside the car.
He went directly to the office building to find Director Chen. Then in the office building, people who had met Luo Cheng before greeted Luo Cheng enthusiastically and called Factory Director Luo. This confused Wang Hui again. If she didn't know that Luo Cheng was the director of her own factory, she would have suspected that Luo Cheng was the director of the steel rolling mill.
"Director Luo, do you know all those people just now?"
"I should have~~ seen him before. I know the director here's surname is Chen."
Luo Cheng shook his head and replied. When others greeted him just now, he responded enthusiastically with "Hello, hello," but he really didn't recognize anyone. But there are indeed a few familiar faces. It seems that Director Chen took him here last time and showed him how to use a manual forklift.
When I came to the director's office, Director Chen was drinking tea. It was tea, not boiled water. Although Luo Cheng doesn't know how to taste tea, as a factory manager, he doesn't even have tea leaves to brew with water.
Explain to Director Chen the purpose of your visit and that you need pipes, iron sheets and other materials to build a shelter from the rain.
Director Chen nodded and asked someone to issue a receipt and just tell them the quantity and profile. At this time, Luo Cheng also laid out the plan and asked Wang Hui to connect the materials that needed to be built in the factory with others. As a factory director, he can't really be like an errand boy.
"Director Luo, I heard that our factory is recruiting a lot of people these past two days."
Director Chen took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it and chatted with Luo Cheng.
Luo Cheng didn't expect that Director Chen knew about this. He couldn't have accidentally dug up the welder in the steel rolling mill. But when he was about to say something, he discovered that the cigarette Director Chen was smoking was actually Zhonghua. Hua Zi, he has never seen the supply and marketing cooperative selling it.
"want to?"
Seeing Luo Cheng's eyes, Director Chen asked with a smile.
Luo Cheng nodded politely. He didn't smoke much, but he could show off. However, he didn't stop at this topic. He felt that Director Chen was quite a good person, so he directly told him about the current situation in the factory. The production of cars also involves dealing with steel rolling mills, so some things don't need to be hidden.
"Director Luo, actually you don't need to go to great lengths to recruit workers. Your method is fine in the short term, but it will be unbearable in the long term."
"There is no way. I don't have the time to cultivate it slowly. Other methods are not feasible."
Luo Cheng also understood what Director Chen meant. Now that there were fewer people, he felt some pressure. Most of the people brought by the master can only be unplanned temporary workers. Buying work clothes in a garment factory is not considered a cost. In many factories, it takes several years for workers to get their second set of work clothes. This is not because the factory is reluctant. But there are local restrictions, and garment factories will not sell it.
"Actually, if you want to recruit workers in the future, I can help you. I can't provide you with people, but some masters want to improve their skills, so I can help you with training."
"Really or not, Director Chen, what are the levels of workers in your steel rolling mill?"
Luo Cheng did not expect that Director Chen would say such a thing. Nowadays, many workers' goal is to become more advanced skilled workers. They are even unwilling to hold management positions in order to specialize in technology. And some senior technicians, to be honest, after working in a factory for a long time, will give priority to their family members when recruiting internal workers.
It really allows some motivated masters to have the opportunity to learn, and they will really take the initiative to apply for transfer without any conditions. When Director Chen made an eight-level gesture, Luo Chengdu couldn't help but take a deep breath. There was actually an eighth-level worker in Ngee Ann. But it may not have happened before, but steel rolling mills generally face the whole country, and having eighth-level workers is really nothing.
After repeated confirmation, Director Chen also promised that Luo Cheng's automobile factory workers could come here every year for advanced skills assessment. Luo Cheng finally confirmed that Director Chen was not joking.
When it comes to purchasing materials and iron plates, it's faster to place an order, but it takes at least noon to find the materials, load the car, and send it to the car factory.
Luo Cheng, who was still talking to Director Chen, saw Wang Hui coming back, and Luo Chengcai discussed two other serious matters with Director Chen. Is it possible to get an agreement on stable supply and purchase of manual forklifts? Although it is said that production is as much as possible, without an agreement it means that there is no planned output. Without planned output, you cannot apply for formal worker quotas in advance.
When Luo Cheng raised this matter, Director Chen still asked him lightly, how much does your automobile factory want them to purchase stably every month. This asked Luo Cheng again. The quantity was small, and if the amount was not high, he would not be able to apply for many places. The quantity is too much. The factory currently only has one set of equipment. It will definitely be added next month, but not much.
In the end, Luo Cheng could only use the phone here to call back and ask Director Zhang how many sets of accessories this machine could produce in a day.
After receiving the reply, Luo Cheng conservatively quoted the quantity of 500 manual forklifts. A manual forklift costs RMB 200, which means the steel rolling mill has to buy a manual forklift worth RMB 100,000.
After Luo Cheng said the quantity, Director Chen still waved his hand and asked someone to get the agreement. Seeing Director Chen like this, Luo Cheng was also a little confused. Manual forklifts are tools. Five hundred a month means six thousand a year. How many vehicles can a steel rolling mill use? But the steel rolling mill ordering agreement must be stamped. If the automobile factory produces it, it needs to buy it if it is not needed. At least it must be declared in advance if it is no longer needed.
However, Luo Cheng can't control so many future things. Once you have a contract, you can apply for a formal job quota first. After giving a final greeting to Director Chen and waiting for the steel to be delivered to their factory, he asked their truck to bring back the iron pallets and manual forklifts that had been produced by the automobile factory, and then Luo Cheng left with the others.
On the way back, Wang Hui looked at the contract in her hand and felt a little weird. This is a purchase of 100,000 yuan a month, and it was done in just a few sentences. You should know that some small factories do not make so much profit in a year.
The most important thing is that Wang Hui feels that Luo Cheng is really a person there at the steel rolling mill, and he agrees to everything. The delivery and pulling of goods are all done by the steel rolling mill with trucks and people, but here we don't get a penny out. This is steel material for sale. Even if someone comes to buy it with a receipt, they have to arrange a car themselves. If they don’t have a car, they have to politely spend money and ask others to help deliver the goods.
The delivery driver must be treated with at least a pack of cigarettes, and when it's time to eat, he may even be given a meal.
Luo Cheng didn't need to worry about anything. He even took a pack of cigarettes with him when he left, but Luo Cheng personally paid ten yuan.
Wang Hui didn't dare to say anything after looking at the brand of cigarettes. There were some things that it was better not to ask. She had to talk to her uncle in the personnel bureau when she went back today, and she had to try her best to take care of the automobile factory. It was not because she worked here. But the director of this factory is a bit evil.
