Chapter 782 Change Your Mindset
"I see." After Luo Fei finished speaking, he turned and left.

"These front-line workers in our factory are very poor, and their families are generally not good. They want to marry a wife and let their family live a good life. Working more and overtime in the factory is their only way." Duan Yun saw Luo Fei leave Finally, he turned his head and said to Zhu Junhai: "You can't solve their problems by just talking about honor and dedication with them, so the workers have no motivation. Since the factory is now profitable, it is reasonable to give more bonuses to the workers. I I don’t have strong management skills, but I just know that workers work to support their families, and they should be paid more if they work harder. It doesn't work too well..."

"You are right, material rewards should be given." Zhu Junhai nodded upon hearing this.

"I know that the military has always been the most honorable group. In fact, the workers are the same, but the premise is that they must not go hungry. Everyone yearns for a good life. In fact, bonuses have nothing to do with capitalism. , Socialism can’t make workers work hungry, right?”

"It makes sense... Now I know why Xu Liang can't afford to run this factory. From the army to the locality, some ideas should really be changed." Zhu Junhai said with some emotion in his tone.

"In addition to the factory's bonus system, technological innovation is also a very important thing." Duan Yun pointed to the test bench on the other side of the workshop, and said to Zhu Junhai: "Those who are holding notebooks to record are college students sent by the province. , Their main job now is to develop new products. In the past month, they have scrapped more than 10 samples, and the production cost of each sample is about 2000 yuan..."

"So much waste!?" Hearing this, Zhu Junhai's face suddenly showed a hint of shock.

This account is easy to calculate. The cost of one sample is 2000 yuan. If there are more than a dozen sets, it will cost at least 3 to 3 yuan. It costs 30 yuan a month to trial-produce new products, and it costs 40 to [-] yuan a year. This is already It is equivalent to the annual output value profit of many local small and medium-sized enterprises in Daxing.

"In fact, compared with the new product research and development funds of foreign auto manufacturers, labor service companies are nothing." Duan Yun paused, and then said: "The reason for the slow development of our country's industrial base is that it can only imitate Outdated foreign products, eating leftovers from others, and investment in new product research and development is seriously insufficient..."

"Is this how foreign countries develop new products?" Zhu Junhai asked in surprise.

"You may think it's too wasteful to scrap so many samples every month, but in fact, our investment in research and development of new products is nothing compared to similar foreign manufacturers." Duan Yun pouted, and then said: "Overseas acceptance There are many highly educated talents. The R&D team of a general automobile industry company often has dozens or even hundreds of people. It is precisely because of such a large investment of manpower and material resources that they can occupy the hegemony of technology and lead the development of this world..."

Duan Yun had to let Zhu Junhai know about some things, because the two of them had misconceptions about many things. If Duan Yun didn't explain the investment in product development, it would easily cause unnecessary misunderstandings.

"You said that foreign manufacturers invested so much money? How did you know?" Zhu Junhai asked Duan Yun suspiciously.

Zhu Junhai really doesn't know much about the auto industry, and he doesn't know much about some foreign situations, so when he heard Duan Yun say that some companies even invested millions or even tens of millions of dollars in product research and development, he obviously had some doubts. unbelievable.

"I went to Germany with your former Director Rui to discuss the introduction of automobile production lines. In addition, when the new production line of our Daxing Automobile Factory was assembled, I was also the Chinese liaison, and I was in touch with the German automobile engineer Bain. I also I learned from him." Duan Yun said.

"So you have been abroad..." Hearing this, Zhu Junhai was even more surprised.

Zhu Junhai obviously knew that Duan Yun was definitely not bragging, because he only needed to go back and inquire about this matter, and Duan Yun couldn't possibly lie to him.

At this moment, Zhu Junhai suddenly felt that this Duan Yun was indeed very difficult, even unbelievable. If a young man of his age was in the army, he would at most be a squad leader. It is a factory with hundreds of people, and it is also a key foreign trade enterprise in the province. What is even more frightening is that he can speak foreign languages ​​and has dealt with foreigners when he went abroad. From this point of view, not only in Daxing, but in the whole of Shanxi It is rare, and I have never heard of such young talents in the whole country.

"The research and development of any product technology is a process of burning money. In order to develop their new 8-series car, the German BMW AG has invested as much as 10 billion Deutsche Marks. With a senior R&D team of hundreds of people, we want to compete with others. , The current amount of investment is actually so shabby that it cannot be more shabby..." Duan Yun said with some emotion.

"10 billion Deutsche Marks..." Zhu Junhai was shocked when he heard this.

"Companies in our country do not have as many talents and funds as foreign giants, so even the development of the lowest-end products is inseparable from the support of the country and the government." Duan Yun turned to look at Zhu Junhai, and then said: "Although the products R&D investment is large, but the economic benefits it can bring are also very considerable. A competitive product can invigorate a company, drive the economy of one side, solve the employment problem of a large number of people, and earn foreign exchange through export, so if the Bureau can give our factory If there is more financial and technical help and support, then our factory will definitely bring back more profits and returns..."

"Hehe, you really are a profiteer, after all, you still want money." Hearing this, Zhu Junhai said with a smile.

"Money is one aspect, and the key is the support from the Municipal Bureau." Duan Yun paused, and then said: "This time I brought an order of 1000 million US dollars from the Canton Fair, but our factory's production capacity is seriously insufficient, and we need There are many factories for supporting, and we have cooperated with diesel engine factories before, but even with the main factory, it is still very difficult to complete so many foreign trade orders.”

"That's easy to say. Later, I will hold a meeting with the factories with organic processing capabilities in our city and ask them to provide you with supporting equipment." Zhu Junhai smiled slightly, and then said: "From now on, your factory's business will be our city's Light Industry Bureau. The most important thing to solve, no matter what, the Municipal Bureau will do its best to ensure that your foreign trade orders are delivered on time!"
