Chapter 4 It must be overturned
Speaking of which, it is really impossible to blame Lu Jianyong and others for this matter. This time, Nanjiang Iron and Steel Plant introduced complete sets of rolling mill equipment, and RB Sanli Steel was responsible for the integration of equipment. Nanjiang Province only put forward capabilities requirements. The specific equipment used and which equipment to use are decided by Sanli.
The plan proposed by Sanli Steel includes the equipment of the rolling workshop. Qiao Ziyuan and Luo Xiangfei know this. The reasons given by Sanli are also very sufficient: the power supply system, cranes, station arrangements, etc. of the factory have professional requirements. If the Japanese side does not provide a complete set of equipment for the factory and the Chinese side builds it themselves, how can it cooperate perfectly with the rolling mill?
Lu Jianyong had negotiated with Sanli technicians, but he was soon defeated. Sanli technicians casually raised a question about steel structure resonance, and Lu Jianyong was stunned. The hot rolling mill has its own working frequency. If the vibration frequency of the steel structure of the factory is the same as that of the hot rolling mill, then when the hot rolling mill is working, the factory will vibrate, and may even lead to collapse. If the Chinese side does not master this technology, how can the steel structure be constructed?
However, Lu Jianyong never expected that behind the Japanese excuses, what he concealed was a series of commercial fraud. In the middle of a complete set of factory drawings provided by the Japanese side, in addition to the parts that China could not build, there were also luxurious locker rooms, toilets, and even flush toilets electronically controlled. The computer responsible for controlling the flushing flow of the toilet also quoted a high price of nearly 10,000 US dollars.
Luo Xiangfei in another time and space felt pain and anger because he saw that the precious foreign exchange turned into a toilet after the equipment was put into production. He asked someone to ask the Japanese side to argue, and the Japanese side's answer was so arrogant:
All the drawings have been reviewed by you, and you voluntarily imported them. In addition, our RB workers use this kind of toilet to solve physiological problems. Their butts are carefully cared for, so they can operate happily and ensure the quality of steel... Regarding this, should I recommend several RB industrial psychology experts to you to popularize them?
Humiliation, what Luo Xiangfei has experienced is endless humiliation. If you fall behind, you will be beaten. This is an eternal truth. If you are not as skilled as others, you can only let others slap a toilet firmly on your face.
"Notify the Japanese side that given the information they previously provided, all the principles and agreements reached have been invalidated. The other party must re-modify the design to meet our requirements, otherwise... we would rather not introduce it!"
Luo Xiangfei slapped the meeting table heavily and said firmly to the room.
Qiao Ziyuan and Liu Huimin exchanged glances with each other, and then nodded heavily. After so long negotiations, they certainly did not want to push back and start over. With the arrogance of the RB people, if they proposed to push back and start over, the other party would be likely to leave directly. The introduction of equipment from Nanjiang Iron and Steel Plant would have to be delayed by at least more than a year.
However, the reason given by Luo Xiangfei is so powerful that Qiao Ziyuan and others also agree from the bottom of their hearts that introducing steel rolling mills requires the factory to be introduced at the same time, which is barely acceptable. But what is this matter if you have a super luxurious toilet in the factory? Indeed, you have not seen other drawings and don’t know the specifications of this toilet. But you can see from a toilet that the butts of Chinese workers are not that expensive. If we mention humanized management, we are not too luxurious to get a set of flush toilets for the steel rolling workshop.
"That's all." Qiao Ziyuan turned his head and said to Lu Jianyong, "Old Lu, please work hard, take someone to carefully review the drawings, pick out all the things that are in a fancy way as the basis for negotiating with the RB people. We must make it clear to the RB people that China is still very poor now and cannot completely copy their capitalist style."
"When talking, we must adhere to principles. If the Japanese side insists on not changing its wrong position, we can consider introducing technology from other aspects, and we will never accept any form of blackmail!" Luo Xiangfei said solemnly.
There is no need to continue this meeting. Lu Jianyong called his subordinates and, together with several Beijing engineers brought by Hou Shoupeng, began to look through the drawing catalog, preparing to sort out the possible problematic parts from it to confront the Japanese side.
Qiao Ziyuan and others accompanied Luo Xiangfei to the conference room, complimenting as they walked: "Director Luo is really a sword. The flaws that Mr. Lu and others have not found after looking for so long. You can see it casually by looking for a drawing. By the way, when did Director Luo know this problem? Why didn't you mention it in the morning?"
"It's a coincidence." Luo Xiangfei replied perfunctorily. He turned to Liu Huimin, who was in charge of the reception work, and asked casually: "By the way, Lao Liu, when we go out for lunch, who else do you stay in the conference room?"
"Stay in the conference room?" Liu Huimin was stunned, thought for a while, shook his head and said, "No one, why, what did Director Luo throw away?"
"No, no." Luo Xiangfei said quickly, "It was the notebook I placed on the table that I moved a seat. In fact, there was nothing secret."
"Oh, maybe it was the waiter who moved when he cleaned the ashtray." Liu Huimin said. He knew that this was not a great thing, but since Luo Xiangfei had mentioned it specifically, he certainly had to ask about it, so he turned to the door of the conference room and shouted: "Xiao Feng, Feng Xiaochen, come out and I have something to ask you."
Feng Xiaochen arrived in response, sweat dripping on his head, and he looked a little panting. Just now, Lu Jianyong and others went to check the drawings, and he was responsible for helping everyone move the picture album, and he put in a lot of effort.
"This is Xiao Feng, a temporary worker in the logistics department. At noon, he cleaned up the room in the conference room. By the way, you should know him, Lao Luo, too. He is Mr. Feng's grandson." Liu Huimin introduced to Luo Xiangfei.
"Old Feng? Are you talking about Mr. Feng Weiren?" Luo Xiangfei asked in surprise. Feng Weiren is an old engineer of the Nanjiang Provincial Metallurgy Department. He worked in Krupp in Germany in his early years and is a master of the metallurgical system. Luo Xiangfei had dealt with him more than ten years ago and was a disciple-oriented etiquette in front of him. In recent years, the domestic movements have been frequent, and Luo Xiangfei has not heard of Feng Weiren for a long time. When Liu Huimin said that Feng Xiaochen is Feng Weiren's grandson, Luo Xiangfei felt a little surprised. No wonder when he saw Feng Xiaochen just now, he felt a little familiar.
"Yes." Liu Huimin said, "Old Feng has passed away. He was a little shocked during the exercise. After the exercise, he just implemented the policy and was unable to do so. It was because of this relationship that Xiaochen came to work at the Metallurgy Department."
"What a pity." Luo Xiangfei sighed.
After talking about Feng Weiren's affairs, Liu Huimin turned to Feng Xiaochen again and asked, "Xiao Feng, you were cleaning the table in the conference room at noon. Did you move Director Luo's notebook?"
Feng Xiaochen looked up at Liu Huimin, then looked at Luo Xiangfei, nodded and said, "Yes, I saw that there was ash under Director Luo's laptop, so I picked it up and wiped it. I did the same for other people's tables."
"You didn't open it, did you?" Liu Huimin asked again. In fact, this was to Luo Xiangfei. There was probably nothing that could not be read by Luo Xiangfei's notebook that could be thrown in the conference room. Not to mention that a handyman would not be interested in reading any notebook. Even if he read it, what's the matter?
"I didn't see it." Feng Xiaochen replied affirmatively.
"Haha, it's okay, I just talked casually. It was because I saw the ash under the laptop being wiped off that I felt someone moved the laptop." Luo Xiangfei said with a smile. At that moment, he had already got the answer he wanted. Feng Xiaochen, when he replied that he was not looking at the laptop, exchanged a look with Luo Xiangfei at a fast speed. Luo Xiangfei felt that he knew very well what the meaning of this look was.
"Director Liu, if nothing is done, I'll go back to work. General Engineer Lu and others are waiting for me to help them find drawings." Feng Xiaochen said to Liu Huimin with a harmless look on his face.
"It's okay, go." Liu Huimin waved his hand, like a fly.
Feng Xiaochen ran away, and Liu Huimin turned to Luo Xiangfei and said, "Oh, he is such a tiger father and a dog son. With such great ability, there is still a little left to his son Feng Li, and there is no shadow at Feng Xiaochen. This guy is ignorant all day long, and he is good at smoking and drinking with a group of young people. When other children in the hall take care of him, he can arrange a mailroom, a library and other seats in the office. This kid can't even write his own name well, so he can only do diligence in logistics... But, Director Luo, don't worry, although his education is not good and his character is good, he will never do such things as stealing."
"Is that?" Luo Xiangfei responded with a smile. He was somewhat skeptical about Liu Huimin's evaluation. He had never taken Feng Xiaochen's knowledge, but from his eyes, Luo Xiangfei could feel a kind of bookish spirit. This was definitely not something that a young man who was ignorant of ignorant. Just the look that Feng Xiaochen just passed to him clearly implying that he was the one who wrote the "KBS-3720" picture number, but he was just unwilling to admit it in front of the directors. A person who can give himself such an important inspiration is a ignorant person?
