Courtyard House: Starting in a Ceramics Factory

Li Feng is not in a hurry to make these empty promises.

Since these students have only just started their internships here, they still have time, and Director Zheng is simply trying his best to do these things.

Li Feng pondered the word "try his best" for a while.

In other words, no matter how many people are left, some should still be left behind. If not a single person can be left, then Li Feng will have to explain this to Zheng Si separately.

Director Zheng is still a deputy now; could we remove the "deputy" title?

Director Zheng is relying on this project.

As for what Director Zheng just mentioned about the ceramics factory's upgrade, Li Feng didn't think much of it.

At my current age, it's already quite an achievement to have reached the deputy division chief level, and there's no current push for younger cadres.

Of course, it's not that it's impossible, but Li Feng also knows that he has just been promoted to the deputy director level by special consideration.

It's almost impossible for it to rise again in the short term.

If the ceramics factory were to be restructured and upgraded, that would be a possibility, but it's only a possibility.

As for the final arrangement, that's up to the bigwigs in the department.

At this moment, Li Feng looked at Director Zheng and nodded to him.

"Director Zheng, I will do my best."

"You can rest assured about that."

"The ceramics factory is also at a critical moment now, and it needs a lot of talent, especially high-quality talent."

"Our ceramics factory needs talent in both mechanical engineering and chemistry."

After hearing Li Feng's words, Director Zheng nodded in agreement.

"Yes, you're right."

"Ceramic factories do indeed need people with expertise in chemistry."

At this point, Director Zheng also knew that Li Feng had said a lot, since the glaze and color of ceramics are basically chemical substances.

This requires chemistry professionals to configure and study it.

The color development and temperature control of ceramics are also very important.

Therefore, it is quite difficult to rely solely on mechanical engineering talent.

At this moment, Director Zheng nodded to Li Feng and said...

"You don't need to worry about talent in chemistry; I can get some talent over here."

Upon hearing Director Zheng's words, Li Feng suddenly remembered that Director Zheng was a chemical engineering graduate and had even worked in the Ministry of Chemical Industry.

With Director Zheng's help, there shouldn't be any problem in bringing in chemical talent.

At this moment, Li Feng nodded to Director Zheng.

"With your help, there will naturally be no problem."

At this moment, Director Zheng nodded to Li Feng.

He then looked at Director Zhu and spoke to him.

"Director Zhu".

"You will be giving the progress report at the upcoming meeting."

After saying this, Director Zheng looked at Li Feng again.

"After Director Zhu finishes his report, you will explain the technical aspects."

After hearing Director Zheng's words, both of them said that there was no problem, because both Director Zhu and Li Feng were very familiar with the matters they were in charge of, so there was no problem for them.

As for Factory Director Wu, he was reporting to Minister Jiang about the branch factory's profitability. Since the branch factory went into operation, the ceramics factory's revenue has been steadily increasing. Although the profit margin on ceramic products is not as high as before, the increased sales volume has led to a significant increase in product profits.

Most importantly, with the investment in the second, third, or even fourth phase of the project, the ceramics factory's product structure will undergo a major adjustment.

However, this is a strategic plan for the future.

However, at present, ceramic factories still mainly produce daily-use porcelain, and there is currently a gap in the market for daily-use porcelain in China.

Since the establishment of the branch factory, it has filled some gaps in the production of daily-use porcelain. However, due to the production line, there is still some insufficiency in the production and supply of daily-use porcelain.

Currently, the branch factory mainly produces mass-produced ornamental porcelain and a portion of daily-use porcelain.

Li Feng's current task is to ensure that the second phase of the production line will focus on everyday porcelain, while the first phase will be completely transformed into a production line for mass-producing ornamental porcelain.

Li Feng's design focuses on the mass production speed of daily-use porcelain, which is definitely different from other designs.

However, Li Feng also needs to consider the issue of later modifications when designing the second phase of the production line, since the factory may change the production of ceramic products on the second phase production line in the future.

Therefore, Li Feng had to revise all of these tasks.

Currently, only Li Feng in the entire Ministry of Light Industry can design these, because Li Feng not only understands the design of production lines, but also the process flow and standards of ceramic production.

In this regard, Li Feng's ceramic production line design can be considered a benchmark.

Moreover, Li Feng was also the one who promoted the industrialization of ceramics.

Regardless, Li Feng can be considered an expert in the field of mechanical ceramics.

Time flies, and soon it was time for the department's regular meeting.

Previously, the deputy director of the ceramics factory was not qualified to attend meetings of this level, but because the second, third and fourth phases of the ceramics factory are now key projects of the ministry, Li Feng and Director Wu were also invited to attend the meeting.

Moreover, both Li Feng and Wu Qing have the right to speak.

This is something that other deputy factory directors do not possess.

Currently, both Director Zhu and Director Wu are at the division-level, but unlike Director Wu, Director Zhu will soon be promoted to the deputy director-general level, since he is the top leader of the factory. As for Director Wu, he is the branch factory director, also at the division-level.

However, Director Wu will not be promoted to the deputy director level.

Generally speaking, factory directors and party officials are later promoted to deputy director-general level. However, Director Zhu currently holds both the positions of factory director and party secretary, while Secretary Chen has been transferred to a local position.

Li Feng had no idea what happened in between.

But Li Feng hadn't expected that Secretary Chen would be transferred to a local position.

Of course, that's all in the past. Now, the only person in charge of the factory is Director Zhu.

Soon, Director Zheng, Factory Director Zhu, Li Feng, and others arrived at the ministry's conference room.

At this time, Minister Jiang has not yet arrived.

Li Feng thought this was normal; after all, it's not like the top leaders are always the first to arrive.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be a big leader.

Then Director Zheng and the others took their seats.

There were many people attending this meeting, including staff from other projects.

And the only person they attended this time was their factory's top manager.

As for the ceramics factory, there are three people there.

Li Feng paid no attention to such matters because he was currently focused on the ceramics factory project. He was unaware of the other projects, but even if he had known, he wouldn't have cared about them.

Li Feng believes that this is not something he should be concerned about. He feels that he only needs to do his own job well, while the decision-makers for other matters should be Director Zhu.

Looking at the people in the conference room, Li Feng couldn't help but sigh.

I never expected to be here for a meeting again. (End of Chapter)
