I want to be emperor

Chapter 857
Wang Liqing did not get what he expected from the banquet held after the Spring Plowing Ceremony in Songjiang Mansion...Knowing more business leaders and gaining more development opportunities.

It was so hard for a friend to introduce him to the general office of the Songjiang branch of Hantian Machinery Company, but he was squeezed out without saying a word, and he didn't even have a chance to exchange names.

This disappointed Wang Liqing.

You must know that getting acquainted and establishing a certain relationship with the general office of Songjiang Branch of Hantian Machinery Company is his main goal for attending the dinner this time.

It's a pity that there are too many people who have the same plan as him.

In the end, he had no choice but to wander around the venue and meet some other people, but the gains were not great.

Interestingly, quite a few people also came to know him... and these people, without exception, were the heads of weaving factories or integrated textile companies with weaving factories.

Their purpose is also very clear, that is, to obtain new cotton yarn from Anhua Textile Company... After a year of brewing, the market is now very familiar with the advantages of new cotton yarn, lower cost with the same quality, At the same time, if good enough long-staple cotton is used, better quality cotton yarn can be processed, reaching the quality limit of mass-produced cotton yarn.

And these have made the market highly sought after for new cotton yarns.

But... there are not many new cotton yarns on the market today. After all, the new spinning equipment produced by Hantian Machinery Co., Ltd. has only been on the market for about a year, and the total output of machinery and equipment is very limited... It is impossible to compete with It is comparable to the number of spinning equipment powered by steam engines accumulated over the past ten years.

The limited equipment means that the total output of new cotton yarn is also limited.

Therefore, most of the cotton yarns on the market today are still old-style cotton yarns, and the proportion of new cotton yarns will not exceed 5.00%.

And the most important thing is that of the new cotton yarns that account for only 5.00% of the cotton yarn supply in the market, more than 90.00% of them are concentrated in major comprehensive textile companies, such as Hantian Textile Company, Su Qin Textile Company, etc., and these large comprehensive textile companies are affiliated The new cotton yarns produced by the cotton mills are not sold externally, they are all produced for their own use, in order to strengthen the comprehensive competitiveness of their cloth and finished textiles.

There are only a few independent spinning manufacturers like Anhua Spinning Mill that can really supply new cotton yarn to a large number of ordinary weaving mills and small and medium-sized integrated textile companies.

It's just that the new cotton yarn output of these independent spinning manufacturers only accounts for about [-]% of the total output.

This means that there is a serious shortage of new cotton yarn in the market.

Moreover, this phenomenon cannot be alleviated in a short period of time, even within two or three years...

Still the same sentence, the output of new cotton yarn equipment of Hantian Machinery Company is limited... and the textile industry of the Great Chu Empire is extremely large. If you want to carry out a comprehensive equipment upgrade, the new spinning equipment required will be a huge Incomparable numbers.

Relying on Hantian Machinery Company alone, even if it continues to expand production and work overtime for production, it is estimated that it will not be completed within 20 years...

You must know that the current large number of spinning equipment in the Great Chu Empire is a huge number achieved by at least a hundred manufacturers of various spinning equipment in China after more than 20 years of cumulative production.

It's not Hantian Machinery Company...

Although Hantian Machinery Company also produces cotton yarn equipment, they have always only produced high-end cotton yarn equipment, and their market share is only more than ten percent at most.

This market share refers to the annual sales...it does not refer to the sales volume.

If it refers to the sales volume, then it is only seven or eight percentage points to the death.

Wang Liqing believes that the supply problem of new cotton yarn can be alleviated within three to five years...mainly because he thinks that it is impossible for Hantian Machinery Company to monopolize new spinning equipment for three to five years.

There are quite a few powerful spinning equipment manufacturers in China... For example, the well-known Lee's Iron Manufacturing Company, and their subsidiary Songjiang Lee's Machine Tool Company have cotton yarn equipment business.

The cotton yarn equipment it produces is also good in the mid-to-high-end market. Their products can probably provide customers with 80.00% of the performance of Hantian products at a price of 90.00% of Hantian products... Although the product performance is not really high-end , but it is also much better than mid-range products.

Its market share is also very good. In recent years, it is said that a lot of research and development funds have been invested to impact the field of high-end spinning equipment.

There is also Zhenjiang Textile Machinery Co., Ltd., which is an enterprise that focuses on the research and development and production of various equipment in the textile industry.

In the textile field, their equipment is the most professional!
Maybe their equipment does not apply advanced and advanced technologies, but the equipment they produce is the most suitable for textile enterprises. There are very unique patented technologies in many details, which can effectively solve many pain points of textile enterprises. , At the same time, the quality control of the product is very strict, the failure rate is extremely low, and it also has a relatively complete after-sales maintenance system in major industrial cities across the country.

In addition to their self-built maintenance system, they have also established a third-party after-sales maintenance system through cooperation with some local machinery manufacturers.

They can proudly say that any industrial city with more than 10 people in the whole country has their after-sales service system.

After the customer's equipment breaks down, he can get on-site repair service and other installation and debugging from the manufacturer or the manufacturer's partner in a short time.

Zhenjiang textile machinery focuses on strict high quality and perfect after-sales service system, so that customers can rest assured to buy and use... and reduce the maintenance and repair time of equipment, which means that the production time of equipment is longer, which can Produce more products.

Therefore, the products of Zhenjiang Textile Machinery Co., Ltd. are not very advanced in terms of some textile-related performance parameters, and basically remain at the mainstream level... They never even make so-called high-end textile equipment, because they rarely use them. What advanced technology is used is the mature technology used by others...

However, Zhenjiang Textile Machinery Co., Ltd. often makes use of these seemingly mature technologies...

Therefore, the equipment of Zhenjiang Textile Machinery Co., Ltd. seems to have poor performance parameters. Although they are not expensive, they have nothing to do with being cheap. They belong to the standard mid-range level, but they are still popular among major textile companies. welcome.

As the owner of an ordinary textile company, you naturally hope that during the service life of your equipment, there will be no problems on weekdays, and the time interval between downtime and maintenance is relatively large, and the maintenance time does not need to be too long... and it is not What is needed is too high a level of engineers to take care of the maintenance.

Keep the production efficiency of the equipment as high as possible, reduce the average cost and increase the average profit.

And these are also the pursuit of Zhenjiang Textile Machinery Company in products.

The first slogan they shouted back then was: Workers need to rest, but our machines don't.

Zhenjiang Textile Machinery Company, they are the veritable giants of domestic textile equipment, with a very high market share, reaching more than 30.00% at one time!

This is a rather terrifying statistic.

You must know that there are at least 100 domestic companies engaged in various types of textile equipment, and one of them occupies more than 30.00% of the market share. Considering the huge scale of the textile industry, its revenue scale is extremely large.

It's just that their profits are not high, and their high-quality production and perfect after-sales service system have devoured a lot of money from them, so their gross profit margin is not high...but even so, their cash flow is very high. adequate.

And after Hantian Machinery Company developed a new type of spinning machine, it immediately invested a huge amount of money in related research and development, trying to overcome the technical difficulties of the new type of spinning machine.

According to the guesses of many people in the industry, within two or three years at most, Zhenjiang Textile Machinery Company should be able to come up with similar products...or in other words, within two or three years, they will be able to bypass Hantian Machinery Company in the new textile industry. A series of patent walls built on the yarn frame.

The new spinning machine... The key points are some internal structural changes, not to say that the materials or processes of the production equipment have changed too much, but the structural changes, these can actually be replicated...

The problem is that Hantian Machinery has a patent, and you cannot copy it casually, otherwise it will be a patent infringement and you will be sued for bankruptcy.

You have to bypass the patent of Hantian Machinery Company to achieve the same function in other ways.

But it's not easy...Because Hantian Machinery Company, like many high-tech companies, likes to register patents for the technical approaches used in new products before releasing new products, and they also use other technologies they have thought of. All approaches to achieve the same function have been patented.

So don't look at the fact that Hantian Machinery Company only used one technical approach, but in fact they applied for dozens of similar technical approaches, which directly blocked more than half of the paths of latecomers.

This approach is even more serious in the field of steam engines. The competition among the three major steam engine manufacturers is a process of continuously building steam engine patent walls and finding ways to bypass the patent walls of the other two.

This is why after so many years, in the field of naval steam engines, there is still a joint steam engine factory dedicated to the navy, and only the joint steam engine factory supplies shipboard steam engines to the navy.

Because there are too many patent barriers between the three major steam engine manufacturers... Although as time goes by, the three major steam engine manufacturers have also overcome some technical problems one after another, and they can all produce steam engines that combine multi-expansion cylinders, ultra-high pressure, and water pipes at the same time. A steam engine with a boiler integrated, also known as a combined steam engine.

But in fact, the steam engines of the three major steam engine manufacturers have more or less defects, and it is impossible to integrate the most advanced technologies of the three major steam engine manufacturers at the same time as the United Steam Engine Factory.

In order to maintain the leading technology, Hantian Machinery Co., Ltd. also did the same. In the new technology of new products, it did not say that it used one, but also applied for patents for dozens of other technical routes that it could not use.

Otherwise, other machinery companies can easily bypass some structural changes.

But now, even companies like Zhenjiang Textile Machinery Co., Ltd. have invested huge sums of money in research and development, and it may take two to three years to come up with corresponding products.

Wang Liqing's judgment is based on the situation of the upstream industries of the textile industry.

It's just two or three years too late... During this long period of time, the cotton spinning industry will inevitably usher in a major reshuffle.

Wang Liqing was glad that he went ashore early enough, and made up his mind early last year to order a large amount of new spinning equipment from Hantian Machinery Company.

These equipments are enough for Anhua Spinning Company to complete a comprehensive equipment upgrade.

It's just that it will take time for these devices to be in place.

This made Wang Liqing extremely anxious... The new type of cotton yarn continued to be hot, and the market was in short supply. At the dinner party, four groups of people came to look for the new type of cotton yarn, and the prices offered were very attractive!
But what makes people very helpless is that the production of new cotton yarn in Wang Liqing's own factory is limited... the existing production has been sold out, and even the follow-up production has been booked.

At the same time, it will take time for the new equipment to arrive, and the production capacity of the existing equipment has basically been tapped to the end... The factory directly produces in two shifts day and night, workers rest, and machines do not rest.

A large number of equipment personnel work overtime every day to ensure the operation of the equipment. Even the chief of the mechanical repair department, Wang, turned into an ordinary mechanic and started to work on it himself. However, in two months, I have been responsible for leading a machine repair team alone.

In addition, there are several old skilled mechanics who have also started to lead a mechanic team after training.

A total of dozens of mechanics are divided into two shifts, day and night, dedicated to these new spinning equipment day and night... and there are only a few people in charge of repairing and maintaining the more old spinning equipment.

At the same time, in order to appease the backbone technicians of these new equipment, Wang Liqing also gave money and promised various comforts, fearing that these backbone technicians would be poached away.

Especially the new Sun Xu, according to Section Chief Wang, this young man is very talented in machine repair, and he is also down-to-earth and willing to work... Well, these are not important, the important thing is that he is now in the Anhua Textile Factory. There are only six technical backbones who can be solely responsible for equipment maintenance and overhaul... For the time being, this is the case.

These six technical backbones each lead a machine repair team. A total of six machine repair teams are divided into two shifts and are on duty day and night.

In other words, at any one time, in the huge Anhua Textile Factory, there are actually only three backbone mechanics working on new equipment... If one of them is randomly poached, Anhua Textile Company will immediately lose one-third of the shift Technical strength, which means that there may be problems in the maintenance and repair of one-third of new equipment.

The people below have already heard the rumor that people from other spinning mills have been coming to inquire about the technical backbone of their factory in the past two weeks... Those competitors almost said that they would come to poach people.

So without any hesitation, he personally issued instructions to promote Sun Xu and the other four technical backbones before spring plowing.

Sun Xu's position was promoted from ordinary mechanic to team leader, officially leading a fixed mechanic team.

The monthly salary was directly increased by more than 300%, and it was raised to [-] Chu Yuan without discount, and a three-year long-term contract was directly signed.

During the contract period, there will be follow-up salary increases. Within three years, if Sun Xu's performance can meet the contract requirements, then the salary may rise to 50 yuan a month.

Wang Liqing's thinking and approach is: I can give you the so-called high salary promised by others when they come to poach you, even more than the competitors who come to poach you...

Such a quick promotion and salary increase directly stunned Sun Xu... You must know that he has only been in the job for only three months.

This is almost once a month, which makes Sun Xu feel a little unrealistic, even very magical... Xiao Sun Dawei heard that he was promoted again, and he directly received a monthly salary of 30 yuan, and the signing continued to increase The three-year-long contract of salary...the face has changed...

I want to be happy for being a child...but I think that I have been in Songjiang for several years, and I have worked hard. I have worked hard from an ordinary worker to a skilled worker, and my monthly salary has increased from more than three yuan to more than seven yuan. Compared with ordinary young people, I am also It was considered a success...but...it took me less than three months to start my childhood, and my monthly salary soared from eight or nine yuan to 30 yuan!
Nima... Sun Dawei really couldn't laugh!

Brother, I am afraid that you will be poor, and even more afraid that you will drive a road rover.

Sun Wei's salary increase shocked himself, and even more shocked Sun Dawei, a young boy...

After Ms. Meng heard about it after getting off work that day, she not only took the initiative to hold Sun Xu's hand, but also half-pushed and half-rejected, letting Sun Xu embrace her with a shy look...

At the beginning, some people said that Ms. Meng had poor eyesight, and that she would fall in love with such a young man from the countryside, who was not very good at talking, and had an average appearance... But Ms. Meng always believed in her own vision: Sun Xu is definitely a potential man. stock, and it is also a potential stock that can realize its potential in a short time.

When I met Sun Xu for the first time, it was only through simple conversations and chats. From the eyes of countless people, I knew: this is definitely a potential stock, a potential stock that can take her to a higher level and see higher scenery !
The only thing she has to do is hold him firmly!
Ms. Meng felt that if she could live in a villa in the outer suburbs, ride in a private carriage, and become a customer of Huidong Department Store instead of a salesperson, she could count on being able to lock Sun Xu...

Sun Xu's promotion and salary increase is an extremely important event for himself and even for the people around him.

But for Wang Liqing, the boss, the salary increase for Sun Xu was not worth mentioning.

A monthly salary of tens of yuan is only a few hundred yuan a year... But a machine repair team led by a technical backbone can earn tens of thousands more a year as long as he can ensure the normal operation of the new cotton yarn machine.

So, this kind of thing belongs to: you may earn, but I definitely earn more!

A similar situation also happened to other technical personnel, not only the equipment maintenance personnel such as mechanics, but also some backbone technical personnel of spinning... Therefore, the salary increase this time is not only limited to Sun Xu, but actually involves All the staff of the new spinning equipment, not only the technicians, but even the ordinary workers on the new production line have been given a little overtime subsidy.

It’s just a temporary overtime subsidy, don’t expect a formal salary increase. Most of the ordinary workers in Anhua Factory’s salary is the general salary in the textile industry in Songjiang Prefecture, which is only slightly higher than the minimum wage standard in Songjiang Prefecture. ,.

Anyway, at this salary level...do you like to do it or not.

If you quit, the factory can recruit enough new workers to replace the existing workers at any time.

Ordinary workers with no skills, don't expect to have any good professional competitiveness, because there are too many people who can replace you.

However, in order to avoid any trouble during this period of time, Wang Liqing still added an overtime subsidy to ordinary workers, and this subsidy would be canceled after a few months of recovery.

But now, in special times, we do special things.

But it is difficult to find technical personnel, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to find within two or three years...

It is not easy to use new spinning equipment to produce new cotton yarn of higher quality and control the cost well.

For many things, equipment alone is not enough, and it is necessary to cooperate in various aspects such as raw materials and production technology, and this requires equipment technicians like Sun Xu and professional engineers in the spinning field.

These people are irreplaceable, or the replacement cost is too high... So Wang Liqing didn't need them to ask, and he took the initiative to raise the salary of the technical staff. The salary increase of several technical backbones is very exaggerated, at least double Doubled, there are a few who directly tripled like Sun Xu.
