Courtyard House: Starting in a Ceramics Factory

Chapter 133 Taking on the role of a deputy
When Master Wang saw that most people were looking at him, his face showed no emotion whatsoever.

After thinking for a while, he answered Deputy Factory Director Zhu.

"If an electric kiln is used, it can indeed improve the yield rate to a certain extent, but we don't have an electric kiln here."

"Moreover, our factory has always used wood-fired kilns."

After hearing Master Wang's answer, Deputy Factory Director Zhu couldn't help but say to Factory Director Wei.

"Director Wei!"

"Didn't you send me to a ceramics factory in Tongzhou to learn before?"

"I discovered that the ceramics factories in Tongzhou use electric kilns!"

"Moreover, their electric kilns also have temperature control functions."

"It allows us to clearly know the temperature inside."

at this time
Upon hearing Deputy Factory Director Zhu's words, the three kiln masters, Liang Siyou, Hu San, and Sun Yu, couldn't help but express their envy.

"With temperature control assistance, the yield rate can indeed be improved significantly."

"Moreover, if our factory also switches to electric kilns, we can save a lot of trouble."

"This is much better than burning firewood."

Several kiln masters are now quite envious of the electric kilns at the Tongzhou Ceramics Factory.

However, whether or not they can replace the electric kiln is not something they can decide.

After listening to what the others had to say, Director Wei nodded in agreement.

According to Deputy Factory Director Zhu, he wanted to borrow the kiln equipment from Tongzhou Ceramics Factory to help the factory fire porcelain slabs.

If we can fire more than five porcelain slabs, each about two meters long.

This way, we can ensure that there are no problems with the ceramic tile.

Factory Director Wei wasn't too worried about the splicing method, since the factory already had experience with it before.

The factory's assembly technicians are capable of ensuring that the seams are virtually invisible.

Therefore, at present, Deputy Factory Director Zhu's plan has been approved by the majority of people present.

At this point, Director Wei also favored Deputy Director Zhu's proposal.

then!

Factory Director Wei then began discussing the matter with Secretary Chen.

After discussing it for more than ten minutes, the two of them...

Factory Director Wei began to speak to everyone.

"I just discussed it with Secretary Chen. We will need to borrow kiln equipment from Tongzhou. Secretary Chen and I will coordinate this together."

"The issue of making the porcelain slabs has now been basically resolved."

"Now, let's start discussing the subject matter of porcelain paintings."

"Leader Jiang talked to me yesterday."

"The content of the conversation is the Iron Man Spirit of Daqing Oilfield that you have been hearing about on the streets and alleys recently."

"This time, the country has discovered an oil field with extremely high reserves in the Daqing area."

"They asked our ceramics factory to cooperate with the publicity campaign."

"They asked our factory to make a porcelain slab that is 10 meters long and 4.5 meters wide to commemorate this moment."

"They even said they would hang the porcelain painting in the Great Hall of the People so that people all over the country would know about it."

“I have already made assurances to him.”

"And I guarantee that our factory will definitely complete the tasks assigned by the organization."

When Director Wei finished speaking, he paused for a moment, and then addressed the crowd.

"Comrades!"

"Therefore, we must do everything in our power to complete this mission."

After saying all this, Director Wei seemed to have exhausted all his strength.

Everyone present knew what Factory Director Wei meant.

Many people know that Director Wei is about to retire. If this mission is not completed, it will add the word "failure" to the final chapter of Director Wei's career.

This was something that Factory Director Wei found very difficult to accept.

Seeing that Director Wei was using too much force, Secretary Chen took over the conversation and continued speaking with everyone present.

"Next!"

"Let's discuss the subject matter of this porcelain plaque."

"Based on the requirements obtained by Factory Director Wei."

"The superiors' advice to us is to unite, strive, work hard, focus on the oil field, and utilize our strength and labor." "In accordance with the instructions from higher authorities."

"We should decide on the subject matter and content, and then let the organization make the final decision."

After Secretary Chen finished speaking, he looked at Master Deng, Master Lin, and the others.

After all, in Secretary Chen's eyes...

Only senior painters like Master Deng and Master Lin have a certain level of influence.

At this moment

Master Lin spoke first to Secretary Chen.

"Secretary Chen!"

"Only Master Deng has the right to speak on the subject matter."

"And I don't think this needs to be discussed."

"Because only Master Deng's Western paintings can express the elements you just mentioned."

"for example!".

"strength!".

"Unity!"

"labor!".

"These can all be well represented in Western-style lottery."

"And it's also easy for others to understand at a glance."

At this moment, Director Wei, who was resting to the side, also spoke to Secretary Chen.

"Secretary Chen".

"Regarding the drawing of the porcelain plaque, follow Master Deng's instructions."

Upon hearing this, Secretary Chen nodded to Factory Director Wei and said...

"I see".

Then Secretary Chen looked at Master Deng and said to him.

"Master Deng!"

"You will be in charge of the painting on the ceramics."

Upon hearing Secretary Chen's words, Master Deng stood up immediately and nodded to Secretary Chen.

"Leave this to me."

"However, I need time regarding the subject matter and content."

"And I also need to find relevant information."

Factory Director Wei and Secretary Chen nodded simultaneously.

"Of course!"

"Regarding the subject matter, how long will it take for you to produce the drawings, Master Deng?"

Master Deng thought for a moment, then answered Secretary Chen and Factory Director Wei.

"Ten days should be about right."

"Moreover, I hope that Li Feng will assist me in my work throughout the process, including developing plans and solutions."

Master Deng's words surprised many people present!
Although they knew that Li Feng was very skilled and had earned Master Deng's appreciation, Li Feng was only a level three painter at present, and he had just been promoted to level three painter.

So it's normal that they were surprised when they heard that Master Deng had Li Feng involved in almost the entire process.

After all, this involves more than just drawing; there are other tasks involved as well.

Not only were others surprised, but even Li Feng himself was extremely astonished.

Factory Director Wei was able to accept this, since the leaders had said that Master Deng and his apprentices would be responsible for the ceramic painting work.

So he simply nodded to Master Deng and said.

"OK!".

"Then Li Feng will serve as your assistant, Master Deng, to complete this project."

"As for the assignment of tasks for the project, you, Master Deng, will personally assign them."

After hearing what Factory Director Wei said, Master Deng nodded to him.

"it is good!".

"I will do my utmost to complete this mission assigned to us by the country."
