Chapter 280 Surprise: Getting Rich

Chapter 280 Surprise: Getting rich

April 14

Mu Yang patrolled the workshop every day, and felt that the workshop was much empty.

The company moved most of the machining equipment to the headquarters base, leaving mainly the welding business. With the expansion of surfacing STL6 and nickel alloy surfacing business, the monthly turnover of the machining company rose to 70 million yuan.

In a workshop, nearly a hundred plasma surfacing equipment and dozens of hot wire automatic TIG welding equipment are arranged and operated in an orderly manner, which looks very spectacular.

Two or three years ago, Mu Yang planned to sell plasma surfacing equipment, worrying that the new equipment developed by other companies would affect his company's business.

So far, some companies have indeed developed and manufactured new plasma surfacing STL equipment, but the equipment's work efficiency and welding quality are not as good as Xinghai Group.

The main reason is that Xinghai Group has formed a scale effect and has a good reputation in the industry. Many domestic and foreign customers have designated Xinghai Group for welding.

Even Kawei Valve Group, the leading valve company in China, now entrusts Xinghai Group with most of the surfacing STL6 and nickel alloy surfacing business.

I remember the first time when Mu Yang came to ask for cooperation with Kawei Company's production director Li Kaikai, but the cooperation failed that time.

More than two years later, Li Kaikai no longer works in Kawei Company, and the matter of holding shares in foreign companies was still found out by the company. Because he took advantage of his position to seek benefits, he was accused of embezzlement by the company. This guy will have to sit for a few years prison.

I often walk by the river without getting my shoes wet.

Don't let others know, unless you do nothing.

In the Xinghai Group, employee corruption and bribery also existed. After the year-end bonus was distributed, this phenomenon was much less.

These employees are more worried about being fired from the company and losing a good job than receiving a small profit of hundreds or thousands of dollars.

As long as it is not serious, Mu Yang never cares about this kind of petty and cheap things. He really needs to investigate deeply. With the size of thousands of people in the group, more than a dozen people can definitely be found out.

With the current size of the company and the fact that there are so many companies coming to seek cooperation, even if employees don’t want it, others will try to give benefits to their employees, such as topping up phone bills, gas cards, shopping cards, New Year’s goods, alcohol and tobacco, etc. With the wisdom of Chinese people and the smoothness of businessmen, there are many ways to bribe.

If there is a relationship of interest, this kind of thing cannot be completely eliminated. As long as it is not excessive, Mu Yang will pretend to be ignorant, but it cannot be made public. Whoever dares to make it public will be shot first, because the impact is different.

Not to mention ordinary employees, there are many people who give gifts to Mu Yang.

Every month, Muyang receives some special products from partners such as Liu Chunfeng, owner of STL6 welding consumables manufacturer Rongtai Welding Consumables Company, and Zhu Shengli, owner of nickel alloy welding consumables manufacturer Jingqun, such as wild tea, special cigarettes, health wine and other special products. .

These things are not expensive, and it is not easy to buy them with money, and it takes energy and time to find them.

Either the boss came over in person, or other high-level executives of the company came to Xinghai Group to contact each other at a fixed time every month. These people knew that Mu Yang was busy, chatted for a while, put down the special products and left.

For them, the things are not expensive, and Mu Yang also accepts the kindness. If he is free, he invites them to have dinner together.

Jingqun Zhu Shengli likes to complain to Mu Yang the most: "Boss Mu, Yao Ni, Yao Ni! This month's nickel market has fluctuated too much, we are going to lose money."

Every time Mu Yang heard him complain, he rolled his eyes at him: "Liu Chunfeng's STL6, the cobalt market fluctuates greatly, and it is not necessarily that he complains to me."

"Cobalt is not the same as nickel."

"What's the difference? Your price is the same as the domestic oil price. Set a double standard."

Looking back on the development in the past two or three years, Mu Yang has grown from an unknown boy to a well-known entrepreneur in China, and he is full of emotion.

Thinking about it now, he takes the lead in accepting gifts from clients, no matter how big or small, it seems that this kind of style is very bad. Reciprocating gifts will bring a psychological burden to the other party. Things are not expensive, but you have to spend your time looking for them.

Mu Yang thought for a while, and quickly made a decision: No matter who it is, he will not accept gifts from his partners in the future.

When he was free in the afternoon, Mu Yang went to patrol the headquarters base.

The Xinghai Building is getting taller and taller. Seen from below, it towers straight into the blue sky, and looks like a rocket rising from the ground from a distance. It is magnificent and majestic.

There are super large flats selling six to seven hundred square meters or even close to one thousand square meters in City H. With Mu Yang's current vision, it is naturally out of his sight.

His request, of course, is that the height of the room must be four meters high so as not to be oppressive, the room should be about a hundred square meters, the wardrobe should be enough to store clothes and shoes for various occasions throughout the year, and the bathroom should have a super bathtub big enough for two people No interference with movement, each bedroom must have a large balcony, and the balcony must have a large garden. When you get up, you can see the spring and flowers blooming, and you can look at the scenery of H city. For such bedrooms, two families have one room, and each has five or six rooms. Well, that’s not counting the fact that there will be children in the future... The kitchen has to put two or three large refrigerators, one for fruit, one for raw meat, and one for cooked meat. There are also Chinese and Western kitchens. He doesn’t like to cut raw and cooked meat. They all use one place... Needless to say, the living room can enlarge the piano. He likes to read books, so naturally there should be a large study room to store some reference books... There must be a storage room for wine, calligraphy and painting, an independent film and television room and KTV room, Rec room, exercise room, swimming pool...

According to Mu Yang's plan, there is no more than 1,500 square meters, which is not enough to arrange.

For the vast majority of people, this is simply a fantasy, but for Mu Yang, it is not difficult to realize it.

Mu Yang was looking forward to the completion of Xinghai Building and moved in. Every time he came, he had to look in front of Xinghai Building for a long time before leaving.

The headquarters base has been officially put into use, all the steel structure workshops have been completed, and some experimental buildings and frame buildings can be used. Even the staff dormitories can be opened and some dormitory buildings can be used to arrange occupancy, which solves the problem of difficult accommodation for employees.

Mu Yang came to the employee dormitory area.

The staff dormitory buildings are all 6 floors, without elevators. Each building is about 90 meters long and 16 meters wide.

There are two types of staff quarters.

The first specification is an ordinary dormitory. Each dormitory is 7 meters long and 3 meters wide, and is well-decorated. Each dormitory building has about 350 rooms, and ordinary employees and low-level employees are arranged to live there.

The second specification is the high-end dormitory, with a larger area, 7 meters long and 5 meters wide, luxuriously decorated, each building has about 210 rooms, arranged for managers, senior engineers and above to live in, with their salary level, already With the ability to buy a house, most people may not live in the company's employee dormitory.

The dormitories are equipped with wall-mounted air conditioners, private bathrooms, water heaters, and washing machines on the balcony, but there is no kitchen. Employees can cook on the balcony if they want, but the company prohibits the use of gas.

Mu Yang also considered this at the beginning. Although the company cafeteria is open at night and on weekends, it is only open for overtime employees. No matter how delicious the food in the cafeteria is, the employees will get tired of eating too much, so they can cook it themselves, or eat it in a restaurant for a change.

There are about 20 meters between the dormitory buildings, and there are rows of parking spaces on both sides of the road in the middle of the dormitory buildings. These parking spaces are paved with green grass-planting bricks, and grass has been planted, which is much better than the concrete floor.

For every 100 mu of land, 75 mu of which are equipped with 10 general-scale dormitories and 4 talent dormitories, with a total of 4,340 employees.

The other 25 mu of land is still divided into parking spaces and greening.

The staff dormitory area covers an area of ​​about 400 mu, and can be arranged with 40 ordinary dormitory buildings and 16 advanced dormitory buildings, with a total of 17,360 staff dormitories.

It also includes 4,000 to 5,000 parking spaces. The ratio of employees to parking spaces is about 4:1. After a few years, more and more employees will buy cars.

The canteen and employee activity center cover a total area of ​​about 100 acres, and the remaining 1,500 acres are office areas, workshops and laboratory buildings.

When Mu Yang went to the dormitory area, he saw some employees moving the dormitory.

"Hello, Chairman."

Mu Yang replied with the same enthusiasm: "Well, hello, maybe you are not used to living here?"

"It's very good, but the place is too big, so I have to buy a bicycle, so it's much more convenient to travel."

"This is possible. The company has a parking shed and is also equipped with a charging station. You can also buy a battery car and go shopping around after get off work. There is a park next to it.

However, there is no business near the headquarters base yet, so it would be a bit troublesome to eat on weekends. "Mu Yang said with a faint smile, as long as there are more people in the headquarters base, business will also rise.

Mu Yang chatted for a few words, went to the staff dormitory to have a look, and felt pretty good. He was very happy to see a few staff moved to the new dormitory, which meant that the money was not wasted.

After Mu Yang left, some employees who had just moved here saw that there were many parking spaces around the dormitory, and they were a little strange:

"Wow, so many parking spaces!"

Not only the open spaces between the dormitory buildings are designated as parking spaces, but also a large area of ​​open space in other directions of the dormitory buildings is also designated as parking spaces.

"The company thought we could afford a car, what a waste of space, haha."

"That may be, maybe after a few years, our salaries and benefits will increase, and every employee can afford a car, so there may not be enough parking spaces."

When Mu Yang came to the machining workshop, he saw that most of the machine tools had been put into use, and some were still waiting for installation, which had already affected the production progress, and the production workshop could not do anything. When encountering urgent work, he had to apply to the production manager and temporarily entrust outsourcing Factory processing.

The company has sufficient funds. When Mu Yang just established the company, all those second-hand equipment were eliminated and sold, and replaced with CNC machine tools as much as possible. If you can’t buy CNC, it will be transformed by the R&D department, and sometimes Muyang will also participate in the guidance to form an automated production line as much as possible.

It can be said that the degree of automation of Xinghai Group is much higher than other companies in the machining industry.

Most machinery companies say that they are automated production, but they are basically independent CNC equipment. Few of them can be connected into a production line. Money is not enough. Experts in automation are required to design and transform, and the boss must be willing to smash it. money.

Even some large companies are still using lathes from the 1970s and 1980s. These machine tools have gone through many hands, but they can still be used. The service life of old machine tools is very long.

In the past, machine tool materials had to be stored for several years for aging treatment after they were purchased, and the internal stress of casting and forging was slowly released before machining.

Some large companies buy a lot of thick steel plates and put them in the open air for aging treatment.

Of course, this is not the reason for some enterprises. Most of them purchase more materials because they are cheap, and if there is no place to put them, they just throw them in the open air, regardless of rust, and then remove rust when they are used. Quite a proportion.

The price of steel is relatively stable. Only in 2021, the price of materials will skyrocket, and the steel price of about 4,000 yuan per ton usually sells for 6,000 to 7,000 yuan.

Therefore, at present, Xinghai Group does not have to hoard a large amount of steel, raw materials take up too much space.

With his hands behind his back, Mu Yang finished patrolling the workshops and laboratories that are currently in use. The headquarters base is too large, and the patrol alone took an hour or two. Normally, he only patrols the key areas of concern, and only patrols every few days once.

For the titanium alloy project, Junfang has already produced the results. The Xinghai Group has obtained the Jungong four certificates and officially placed an order with the Xinghai Group. Secrecy work training is being held recently.

The aviation titanium alloys TC4 and TA7 supplied by Xinghai Group to Junfang are priced at 1,000 yuan and 900 yuan per kilogram respectively, and the specific specifications and sizes may vary slightly. This is the price negotiated by the two parties.

This price is roughly equivalent to 25% off the market price of the international top aviation titanium alloy.

With the excellent performance of Xinghai Group's titanium alloy, if it is placed on the international market, TC4 can be sold for about 1,600 yuan per kilogram, and it can even be sold for 2,000 yuan without any problem.

It is normal for the domestic price to be lower than the overseas price. After all, the comprehensive cost of overseas production, transportation and sales is high.

Junfang asked for only 700-800 yuan, and said it would be compensated from other places. Mu Yang complained that the cost of research and development was very high, and he had already invested 600-700 million yuan. 1000 RMB.

No matter how high the price was, Mu Yang didn't dare to mention it anymore, he had to make Junfang feel that Xinghai Group was at a disadvantage in terms of price, Xinghai Group was a disadvantaged group, and they would cry to eat NAI.

Doing business with Junfang, it seems that the more you earn, the more you may lose.

Xinghai Group is not short of money, what it lacks is all kinds of scarce resources, and Junfang just happens to have the resources that Xinghai Group needs, and this is what Mu Yang values.

In fact, the production cost of Xinghai Group is very low, currently about 100 yuan per kilogram, plus other costs, this comprehensive cost depends on the order quantity, the larger the quantity, the lower the comprehensive cost.

For Mu Yang, it is enough to sell to the country and guarantee a small profit.

Today, this meager profit, if you count the unit price, is simply a huge profit.

But if the order volume is small, it may not make money in two or three years.

Junfang's first batch of orders is about 100 tons, and the order value is about 100 million yuan.

It is estimated that the annual order volume will reach more than 2,000 tons, or even more.

Although Mu Yang was open to buy technology, the real research and development cost may be as low as only a few hundred thousand yuan, but his research and development expenses have to be calculated according to the normal research and development situation, even if it is one billion yuan, it is not too much.

If the cost is calculated in this way, an order of about 2,000 tons is needed to pay back the cost, and it will be profitable in the future.

According to Muyang's production line plan, the annual output of titanium alloy is 5,000 tons, which is very small. In the first year, the purchase volume of Junfang will be relatively small, and it will gradually increase in the future. It is estimated that the demand will reach more than 5,000 tons in three years.

The cost will be paid back on the first day, and the annual gross profit will be more than 1.7 billion yuan from the second year. If the sales volume can reach 5,000 tons, it will be a gross profit of more than 4 billion yuan.

In this way, it is simply a huge profit.

However, Junfang felt that the Xinghai Group had lost a lot and had to make various compensations, such as not collecting taxes on the titanium alloy project. (Normal tax payment, after the annual accounting, and then refund the tax)

Other compensations will be discussed slowly in the follow-up.

this evening.

Before going to sleep, Mu Yang received a reminder from the reading system just as he had put in the "tai" shape.

Come to achievement point.

After such a long time, I finally have achievement point income.

[System prompt 1: The company's handheld laser welding equipment has won the honorary title of "Jiangnan Province Famous Brand" and achieved +5 achievement points]

[System prompt 2: The company's handheld laser welding equipment has won the honorary title of "Jiangnan Famous Trademark" and achieved +5 achievement points]

[System prompt 3: The company's handheld laser welding equipment has won the honorary title of "Huaguo Famous Trademark" and achieved +10 achievement points]

[System prompt 4: The company's handheld laser welding equipment has won the honorary title of "Huaguo Famous Brand" and achieved +15 achievement points]

[System prompt 5: Honor is covered, this technology can obtain a maximum of 25 achievement points in terms of honor titles]

Total Achievement Points: 85.5

After receiving 25 achievement points all of a sudden, Mu Yanggang squinted his eyes, and suddenly regained his energy.

After a while, Mu Yang received another series of system prompts!

Another achievement point!

This time, there are several system prompts.

It turned out that it was the aluminum alloy paper that was published, and his paper had been reviewed and approved long ago, but it has not arrived for a long time.

Mu Yang knows that achievement points may be late, but they will never be missing.

Aluminum alloy 6009, published two articles in SCI District 2, and gained achievement points +20

Aluminum alloy 6010, published three articles in SCI District II, due to the existence of homogeneity, the highest achievement point +20

Aluminum alloy 7090, published two articles in SCI District 2, and one article in SCI District 3, there is also homogeneity, the highest achievement point +20

All of a sudden, there are 60 more achievement points.

"Lie down!"

Mu Yang almost yelled, afraid to wake Song Xuelu up, so he shut up quickly.

After a while, Mu Yang received achievement points again.

This time, the fiber laser invention patent was authorized, and the achievement point was +25.

After 18 months, finally obtained the invention patent authorization.

This means that the technical authorization cooperation with IGP has officially come into effect.

In addition to IGP, it has also negotiated cooperation with two other international laser giants. For these two companies, Xinghai Group can get 6.1 million USD per year.

Overnight, Mu Yang's achievement points skyrocketed, reaching a total of 170.5 points.

This time, Mu Yang was so surprised that he couldn't calm down.

He likes this kind of sudden wealth.
