Chapter 718 Unexpected Shock

After returning from Africa, Zhao Guoyang devoted himself to all work.

At the end of September, the first batch of all-terrain vehicles "HD300ATV" of "Hongda Machinery Factory" were successfully trial-produced and successfully passed the national quality inspection.

In October, the first hook bridge crane of "SMS Engineering Machinery Company" qd20/5-19.5a5 completely drew all drawings and entered the trial production stage.

In November, the "Mining Resources Development Division" of "Xingtai International Foreign Trade Company" was officially established, and the first foreign-related mining company finally settled in Nigeria.

In December, "SMS Company" welcomed Clement, a member of the board of directors of England's "Jessebo Engineering Company" and the director of the Technology R&D Department, and signed a relevant cooperation agreement with the other party.

In the last four months of 1992, Zhao Guoyang's arrangements over the past year after his rebirth finally began to see his eyebrows and show his sharpness.

His dream of becoming an industrial power has also taken this critical small step forward.

...

Sitting in the office of the deputy director of the "Hongda Machinery Factory", Zhao Guoyang kept typing on the keyboard in front of the computer with both hands and stroking the mouse. The assembly diagram of the all-terrain car on the screen gradually revealed clues.

The knock on the door of "tuk tuk" interrupted Zhao Guoyang's thoughts. He looked up and saw that it was Director Wang Youchang who came over.

Seeing that it was him coming in, Zhao Guoyang quickly stopped the work in his hand and greeted him.

"Hey, Guoyang, you are busy with yours. I just come and see if there is anything that can help you!" Wang Youchang couldn't help rubbing his hands and said.

During this period, with the first batch of all-terrain vehicles "HD300ATV" in the "Hongda Machinery Factory" in the Americas and the European market, the production lines in the factory have almost never stopped.

Although the factory started the production line model early under the guidance of Zhao Guoyang.

But even at this speed, plus the working hours of three shifts, only about 30 all-terrain vehicles can be produced every day.

This quantity is a drop in the bucket for Hongda Machinery Factory, which has accumulated thousands of orders.

This production line has been operating for a month in a row, but it has only made the orders from last month and still owed 1,200 cars on "Xingtai International".

In other words, Hongda Machinery Factory signed a sales commission with "Xingtai International Foreign Trade Company". If it were replaced by other foreign trade companies, it would have been urged to come to the door long ago.

The overseas sales of the first "all-terrain vehicle" made Wang Youchang, the deputy director in charge of technology and production, both happy and worried.

Huanxi is naturally because her own factory has just passed New Year's Day and has confirmed that the orders on hand are enough to make more profits than the whole year.

The concern is that the production speed in the factory is really unable to keep up.

If there were a few more big orders from "Xingtai International", Wang Youchang would probably be so anxious that he would jump off the building.

Of course, such "pain and happiness" is completely acceptable to Wang Youchang.

But every time I see the busy Zhao Guoyang, Director Wang feels a little guilty.

After all, in the completely unfamiliar project of "all-terrain vehicles", I didn't help Xiao Zhao, but was more responsible for arranging production.

But even such a simple job, I didn’t seem to be able to make a comeback.

There is no way. After all, the small Ninghai City has a limited population, so it is too difficult to recruit experienced technical workers.

A fresh graduate of the technical schools and vocational schools in Ninghai City have long been selected by Wang Youchang.

If the school had not had strict rules and regulations, he would have been determined to directly pull the students who had just entered the school into the big truck and leave.

He has been tortured by the production speed problem. Today, while the equipment in the workshop was renovated, Wang Youchang was wondering whether he would come over to discuss this recruitment with Zhao Guoyang.

Zhao Guoyang could guess some of the purpose of Director Wang’s visit.

In fact, Zhao Guoyang had never expected such a glorious scene in the factory before.

When the trial production of "hd300atv" was just successful, Zhao Guoyang carefully analyzed it.

In terms of product quality and workmanship, this all-terrain vehicle from its own factory can only be considered the second and third grade product internationally.

Although it has a complete range of functions and optional accessories, there is still a big gap with famous brands like Bombardier and Polaris.

According to Zhao Guoyang's prediction, it would be very good if this product in his factory can sell more than 100 in a month.

However, Zhao Guoyang still underestimated the absolute price advantage of his own products.

A "HD300ATV" costing less than 300 US dollars is only sold for a price of only 1,000 US dollars in the international market, which is more than ten times cheaper than the top Bombardier product with similar specifications.

Even compared to first-class brands like "Polaris" and "Jacking Deer", this car from Hongda Machinery Factory has a huge price advantage.

In this way, with the performance difference not much, "hd300atv" not only swept the all-terrain vehicle market of second-tier brands, but also had an unexpected impact on the first-class brand market.

In just three months, two thousand "hd300atv" have been sold. Moreover, this number is still increasing.

In other words, in the last quarter of last year alone, Hongda Machinery Factory completed sales of two million US dollars and profit of nearly one million US dollars.

This number is much higher than the previous three quarters.

Such a booming sales performance directly made several leaders in the factory ecstatic.

Now everyone is nervous, that is, how to increase the production capacity of this "all-terrain vehicle".

At this time, Director Wang suddenly came to visit him. Zhao Guoyang believed that it was probably for this matter.

After helping Director Wang pour a cup of tea, Zhao Guoyang smiled and asked, "Director Wang, you are here because you have no time to do something for orders, right?"

Seeing that Zhao Guoyang suddenly guessed his thoughts, Wang Youchang stopped hiding them.

He nodded repeatedly and sighed: "Yes, Guoyang. 'Xingtai International Foreign Trade Company', another call came in the morning, saying that another dealer in Europe asked for ten cabinets."

"Because this batch of orders is urgent, Mr. Zhang from Xingtai International gave us a death order, and we must hand over this batch of goods to their hands before the New Year."

"For this matter, Lao Ma was so anxious that his hair turned white. He just put down Mr. Zhang's phone number and went on a business trip to several small factories in eastern Zhejiang Province to urge parts..."

After hearing Wang Youchang's description of Director Ma's anxious appearance, Zhao Guoyang showed a smile on his lips.

Noting that Director Wang's eyes turned, Zhao Guoyang quickly coughed and said, "Director Wang, I know about the matter on 'Xingtai International'. Teacher Zhang has already made me angry before."

"There is no way, this batch of orders is sent to the Germans. You also know that the Germans are the most punctual, and this order cannot be delayed by one day. It is also difficult for the 'Xingtai International' side!"

Seeing that Zhao Guoyang had no way to go, Wang Youchang's face turned bitter.

He sighed and patted his thighs, "What should I do? Director Mu went to Beijing to attend a meeting of the Inherited Assets Administration and could not come back for the time being."

"If he were there, he might be able to sell his face and go to several technical secondary schools in Guangling City to get some people. But now, we can only leave it to fate..."

Listening to Director Wang's frustrated words, Zhao Guoyang couldn't help but smile and comfort him: "Director Wang, there is really no need to worry about recruiting people."

"The production line in our factory has become saturated in number, and even if we add more staff, it will not be much faster."

When Wang Youchang heard this, he spoke: "Guoyang, in this situation now, we can get one point faster than one point."

"And now, recruit more people. After more skilled workers, it will be much more convenient to open a production line. This is what Lao Ma and I look forward to most!"

Hearing this, Zhao Guoyang suddenly thought of something.

He touched his chin and murmured: "Yes, as long as there are enough people, it is absolutely feasible to open another production line. But where can I find the equipment needed for this production line?"

"The hub assembly requires a pressing machine, and frame welding requires a spot welding machine. These are not something that can be done in a short while..."

Suddenly, Zhao Guoyang seemed to think of something, clenched his fists hard and said, "By the way, there is a way!"

Shocked by Zhao Guoyang's sudden words, Wang Youchang's body shivered.

When he realized it, his eyes immediately became straight.

The Director Wang opened his eyes widened and stared at Zhao Guoyang intently and said, "Guoyang, have you thought of a solution? Hurry up, come and listen!"

When Zhao Guoyang caught a glimpse of the bloodshots in Wang Youchang's eyes, he was stunned for a moment.

However, he quickly reacted and explained hurriedly: "Director Wang, that's it. Do you still remember the 'Xiangyang Machinery Factory' in Jianghai County? It's the one we asked them to borrow laser spot welding machines!"

Wang Youchang nodded like a chicken pecking at the rice and said, "Remember! This factory helped us a lot!"

Zhao Guoyang said "yes", and continued: "That's right, it's time to ask for help again!"

Wang Youchang's eyes lit up and he hurriedly said, "Guoyang, are you talking about borrowing a welding machine from someone?"

"It's not just borrowing a welding machine!"

Zhao Guoyang waved his hand indifferently, "In Xiangyang Machinery Factory, there are very few mechanical products now. We can borrow them from other laser spot welding machines, pressing machines, and die-casting machines."

"Ah! That's so great!" Wang Youchang almost jumped up after hearing this.

Zhao Guoyang shrugged and said again: "In addition to machines, many of the workers in Xiangyang Machinery Factory are from mechanical backgrounds. It just so happens that the plastic products business in their factory is not busy during this period. It should be possible to ask their workers and masters to sponsor them for more than ten days before the New Year!"

Hearing this, Wang Youchang could no longer suppress his joy. He clapped his hands hard and said, "Yes! The plastic parts are manufactured too fast after opening the mold. Xiangyang Machinery Factory must be short of manpower. It is just right to support us. This idea is so good!"
