Chapter 8 Non-performing rate 55%

Guanda Company’s office building, fifth floor, general manager’s office.

General Manager Yang Lu sat upright in the boss's chair, with a pretty face full of power and anger.

Five senior executives of Guanda Company: Cai Jiaming, director of the sales center, Li Yahu, director of the manufacturing center, Chen Zhengsheng, director of the material center, Liao Yukun, director of the R&D center, and Yuan Meiling, director of the general management office, held her hands behind her back, looked solemn, lowered her head, and stood in front of Yang Lu's office desk, not daring to speak out.

Yang Lu gently knocked on the office desk, "I heard from Director Cai that there are US customers who have orders of inverters worth 20 million US dollars a year, but we can only accept orders worth 100,000 US dollars a month. Can anyone tell me what's going on?"

Inverter, that is, step-up transformer.

The industry in mainland China has developed lately, and most transformer factories can only make some high and low frequency transformers with low process requirements.

The main production base of inverters is in the United States. Due to the extremely cheap manpower in mainland China, Americans began to transfer orders to mainland China.

The exchange rate of US dollars at this time was 8.27, with a year of 20 million US dollars equivalent to RMB 165 million. Guanda Electronics' current annual sales are only RMB 2.2 billion. If it can be taken over, it will be equivalent to an increase of 75%.

The most important thing is that according to financial prices, the profit margin of this product can reach a huge profit of 45%!

Now that things can't be made, Yang Lu is of course anxious.

"Because the failure rate of inverter products reaches 55%, we lose one by one, and we can only cooperate with customers to do a little bit." Chen Zhengsheng, director of the Materials Center, answered accordingly.

The Materials Center is responsible for material procurement, material control, order arrangement and follow-up, warehousing and logistics, and is under the management department, procurement department, warehouse department, transportation group, and order arrangement and follow-up are the responsibilities of the Materials Center.

Yang Lu's eyes were cold and she looked at Li Yahu, director of the manufacturing center.

The manufacturing center is the largest entity in the company, including the production department responsible for production, the quality department responsible for quality control, and the biotechnology department responsible for equipment, tools and process technology. 90% of the company's manpower is in the manufacturing center.

Li Yahu coughed and said slowly, "The main responsibility for the quality of this product is for me. Because this product uses copper wire with a diameter of 0.05 mm, which is much thinner than hair, and it is easy to break the wire. In the final analysis, the quality management work of the production process is not done well, especially IPQA, which they are responsible for. I also specifically reminded Deng Jianlong to follow up on the quality of this product, but it has no effect. Of course, as the head of the manufacturing center, I have to bear the main responsibility."

This is so easy to say, and there is nothing wrong with it.

On the surface, he said that he took the initiative to review and take responsibility, but in fact he stabbed Deng Jianlong in secret.

Yang Lu obviously didn't sell the account, and her face showed anger, "What I want is the result! What are you responsible for the loss of sales of more than one billion yuan a year? You are here to solve the problem, a bunch of waste!"

Yang Lu was furious, everyone's heads lowered, and no one dared to speak anymore.

Most people have about 0.08 mm hair, and the copper wire of this inverter product is only 0.05 mm, which is too thin and too easy to break the wire.

Because the wire is too thin, employees will cause disconnection during operation and handling. Even the stress caused by the grinding of the product will cause a large number of disconnection.

In the early stages of inverter production, this was an unsurpassed technical problem.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Yang Lu stood up angrily, "Let's go with me to the manufacturing site and solve it on the spot! If it can't be solved, everyone stays on the site every day to find solutions until the problem is solved!"

After saying that, he walked out of the office first.

The senior executives looked at each other, with a helpless look on their faces, and had to follow her and come out one after another.

Yang Lu looked back at the dejected executives behind her, and even more angry, "Call all the cadres at the manufacturing center's department head and above, and the newly recruited PQE Hu worker who was hired yesterday, also called him over. Within ten minutes, all must be in place!"

…………

In the workshop on the third floor of Building B, Deng Jianlong was taking Hu Xiaohu to explain the situation in the factory in detail, very patient and careful.

Hu Xiaohu knew in his heart that Deng Jianlong was so kind to him, in addition to being a fellow villager, his character himself was also excellent.

Therefore, except for Xiao Xiaoming, everyone under the department respects him very much.

If he could help Deng Jianlong, he would not be stingy.

"Please Deng Jianlong, Hu Xiaohu will go to the inverter workshop on the fourth floor of Building C immediately!" The radio in the workshop rang.

Deng Jianlong frowned and sighed, "It's the problem that the inverter is disconnected again..."

Along the way, Deng Jianlong told Hu Xiaohu the problem, and Hu Xiaohu already knew it.

When the inverter was just put into production in China, the defect rate of product line breaks was extremely high due to the thin wire diameter, which was a common phenomenon. After three or four years, this problem was almost solved. Later, when using fully automated equipment to wind the wire, the defect rate can basically be controlled below 2%.

When they arrived at their destination, a group of people formed a group in the workshop.

In the middle of the crowd, there were a bunch of large cartons filled with bad products

"So many bad products are piled up like mountains. It's not a waste of your money. You won't feel sorry for you, right?" A crisp scolding came.

Hu Xiaohu looked at the cold and beautiful woman standing in the middle, a little confused.

My luck is a bit good...

Yi Bin, the production department manager, said excitedly in a heavy and heartbreaking voice: "Mr. Yang, so many scrapped products are made by our production department with great effort. Just like our children, we feel distressed! This quality is abnormal. We have been feedbacking to Director Deng of IPQA, but there has been no results."

Deng Jianlong became anxious when he heard this. He was about to walk over, but Hu Xiaohu grabbed him and whispered: "Boss, don't explain..."

This problem is ultimately a process technology problem, and should be solved by the Biotechnology Department, but it points the finger at ipqa. This is obviously targeting Deng Jianlong.

However, the bad debt rate is so high, no matter how many explanations are, it is pale and powerless. In front of the boss, arguing is a taboo.

Deng Jianlong was not stupid, and he understood instantly and nodded.

The two walked over gently and respectfully shouted "Mr. Yang".

Yang Lu turned around, covered with cold frost, looked at Deng Jianlong with cold eyes, glanced at Hu Xiaohu, a rare smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, nodded at him, and returned to her cold and gorgeous appearance.

"You have so many directors, managers, deputy managers, and section chiefs. You are here to argue? Who can solve this problem? I want the bad debt rate to be reduced to below 10%, which is not an excessive amount? If you can't solve it, you will be fined all of them and your salary will be reduced by one level!"

Under Yang Lu's scolding, everyone lowered their heads.

"Li Yahu, you are the top supervisor of the manufacturing center. How can you reduce the defect rate?"

"I'll think of a way."

"What's the solution?"

“…”

Yang Lu didn't get an answer from Li Yahu, and asked Xiang Biotechnology Manager Yang Donggui, R&D Director Sun Yi, and Quality Manager Xiao Yiguang, but there was no result.

Finally, Yang Lu looked at Deng Jianlong, "Is there any way to solve the problem with ipqa?"

Deng Jianlong: “…”

Hu Xiaohu replied: "There is a way!"

At this moment, the sight of more than a dozen people present was concentrated on Hu Xiaohu, and even Deng Jianlong was stunned and at a loss.

Manufacturing director Li Yahu, quality manager Xiao Yiguang and others showed mocking expressions in their eyes.

There are so many experienced technicians and on-site managers in the audience who can't figure out a solution. Can a newly graduated person have a way to solve it? This is not about answering questions in the exam.

In their eyes, Hu Xiaohu is just a ignorant young man who knows the height of the world.

Yang Lu looked at Hu Xiaohu, surprised and happy, a little confused and worried.

She valued this young man very much, and was a little afraid that he would make a mistake.

Facing the crowd of senior executives around, Hu Xiaohu said slowly: "Actually, our section chief has given me some guidance on this issue. We have discussed it on the road just now. We have a way to control the bad rate below 5%.

Yang Lu's eyes showed a look of hope, "What should I do?"

Hu Xiaohu smiled, "Can I start with the wire winding process and operate the improvement method on site?"

"Okay, agree!" Yang Lu's eyes lit up.

Hu Xiaohu came to the wire winding station with more than a dozen eyes.

I skillfully checked and adjusted the semi-automatic equipment for the winding, and then found a fine plastic rod and used a blade to open a groove in the middle of the plastic rod.

The skillful movement made everyone's eyes full of surprise.
