Chapter 20: Mobilization of the Entire Factory
Panshan Machinery Factory.
Factory director ‘Wang Tiezhu’ held a factory-wide meeting.
Wang Tiezhu had a smile on his face, grinning from ear to ear. Liu Tao was right next to Wang Tiezhu. He was worried that this old man would laugh so hard that he would be unable to breathe and die from laughter like Sima Zhao in the TV series.
Wang Tiezhu adjusted the simple loudspeaker and said loudly:
"Comrades, just today, the new automatic rifle developed by our factory has been highly praised and affirmed by superiors. It is temporarily named the '78 Type' automatic rifle. The 119th Regiment of the 40th Division has issued a task of producing 1,200 '78 Type' automatic rifles. The 41st Division The 122nd Regiment also issued a production task of 1,200 'Type 78' automatic rifles."
Wang Tiezhu was so happy in his heart. In the past few days, good news came one after another, making him laugh even in his dreams.
2,400 ‘Type 78’ automatic rifles are planned to cost 600 yuan each, which is 1.44 million yuan!
And this is just a new order. The original 1,200 'Type 63' automatic rifles passed the inspection and acceptance by the army yesterday and were delivered to the army. They did not fall into their own hands, let alone go to military court and be held accountable for it.
The guns, artillery shells, and bullets in the entire warehouse will also be delivered to the troops one by one.
Wang Tiezhu has a premonition that everyone will have a good year this year.
It is also because things are urgent that Wang Tiezhu convened a mobilization meeting for the whole factory today, calling on everyone to work hard and contribute to China's military industry!
As for the good news announced by Wang Tiezhu, the entire factory workers were in an uproar and couldn't help but discuss it in low voices.
Previously, 1,200 'Type 63' automatic rifles were withdrawn in full public view, and many people saw it. Not to mention, in the meeting later, the whole factory had already known about this matter. At that time, it was facing the crisis of the entire Panshan Machinery Factory being banned.
Who would have thought that the crisis would be over in just a short time, and Panshan Machinery Factory would also develop a brand new automatic rifle.
Then, today’s meeting came to the highlight – commendation!
Liu Tao wore a brand new Chinese tunic suit. Wang Tiezhu personally put a big red flower on Liu Tao's head and then gave Liu Tao a big red book.
"Click~~"
The only camera in the audience pressed the shutter to record this scene.
Everyone in the factory was staring at Liu Tao.
A bonus of three thousand yuan. At this time, everyone's monthly salary is dozens of yuan. This bonus is undoubtedly a huge sum of money.
There is envy, but there is not jealousy.
During this time, Liu Tao has developed a brand new pistol, and now he has developed an automatic rifle, which is like a monster.
If you are a little outstanding, everyone will be jealous. If you are too outstanding, everyone will no longer be envious, but will only admire you.
This time, at the commendation conference, Liu Tao not only received a bonus of 3,000 yuan, but his administrative level was raised from level 17 to level 15, a full two levels, and his salary was also increased from 101 yuan to 127 yuan.
Therefore, Liu Tao officially entered the leadership of Panshan Machinery Factory.
At the same time, Lin Shengli abdicated and made way for Liu Tao to serve as the Minister of Technology. Lin Shengli retired from the Minister of Technology to the Deputy Minister, with his position reduced and his administrative level unchanged.
As soon as this mobilization meeting started, all the employees in the factory screamed and screamed as if they had been beaten to death.
Wang Tiezhu kept Liu Tao behind after the meeting, and the two of them took a walk.
"Comrade Liu Tao, is it necessary for so many people to participate in the production of 'Type 78' pistols and 'Type 78' automatic rifles?" Wang Tiezhu was worried.
Production needs to be carried out according to plan.
You can't just produce as much as you want.
Materials are a big problem. Without a plan, where would the materials come from?
Besides, even if the materials are obtained and produced, if the army does not purchase them, they will all have to pile up in the warehouse and gather dust.
Everyone has to go drink the northwest wind.
"Director, I have the habit of listening to the radio every day. I think next, we will beat a dozen monkeys. Now the monkey is jumping up and down happily. It will not settle down unless it is taught a lesson." Liu Tao After pondering for a while, he suggested that Wang Tiezhu hold this mobilization meeting. In fact, according to the current production efficiency of the factory, 2,400 '78-type' automatic rifles can be produced in no time at all. The production capacity in a month is more than 2,400 With just one rifle, there is no need to mobilize so many people.
Not to mention, the entire factory needs to be mobilized, and Liu Tao also needs to produce new production equipment and expand production.
"Moreover, even if we don't fight monkeys, our troops are originally going to be equipped with new automatic rifles. It's just that the '63' automatic rifle is not satisfactory, so it is not installed on a large scale." Liu Tao said sternly: "Director, workers are eager to To do something well, you must first sharpen your tools. Only by preparing in advance can we obtain more planning quota. "
"If the 119th Regiment and the 122nd Regiment are satisfied and the test goes well, then the 40th Division and the 41st Division will have two more regiments. Will other divisions also come to the door? It can't be that time, everyone will be too busy to do anything. ?" Liu Tao's words made Wang Tiezhu's heart firm.
Currently, the People's Liberation Army's infantry divisions have two formations, namely Type A Division and Type B Division.
A type A division is a force that is fully staffed, fully equipped, in a state of combat readiness, and capable of being assembled and dispatched at any time. The Type B Division, on the basis of retaining the force framework and main strength, has compressed the size of the force.
The 40th Infantry Division is a Category A division, and the 41st Infantry Division is a Category B division.
If these two divisions, not to mention the other divisions, are all refitted, then with the current production capacity of Panshan Machinery Factory, it will be difficult to do so in a short time.
If we really want to teach the monkey a lesson, we need to produce hundreds of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of automatic rifles in a short time. The difficulty is even greater!
Wang Tiezhu is a veteran who has experienced hundreds of battles. He knows very well how amazing the guns and shells consumed in a battle are.
Two hundred thousand people, one battle, each soldier shoots two magazines, that is two hundred thousand automatic rifles, twelve million rounds of bullets!
Liu Tao persuaded Wang Tiezhu to expand production with his own thoughts. After all, he knew very well that they didn't have much time left. They must seize the time and cherish every minute and every second. It won't be long before the order from above will come down.
Whether they can seize the opportunity and grow stronger depends on this time.
If they don't seize the opportunity, in a few years, like Panshan Machinery Factory, they will have to transfer from military to civilian, and then in a few years, they will be gradually eliminated by society and finally remain only in the records of history books.
As for the '78-type' pistol and '78-type' rifle, it is true that they were developed by Panshan Machinery Factory in name, but it does not mean that only Panshan Machinery Factory can produce them and other military factories cannot produce them.
The Patent Law of the Republic of China will not be issued until 1984. If it can really be done, even in Liu Tao's time and space, it will still make people laugh.
Liu Tao has feelings for Panshan Machinery Factory. In his heart, Panshan Machinery Factory will also be a stage for him. He hopes that Panshan Machinery Factory can grow and develop, and he can also realize his own value in the process.
