Chapter 203: Get it right from the start

After talking about this, Han Songlin asked about training the workers. Fuxing Industry didn't have much work to do right now, and Han Songlin wasn't interested in taking on the job of processing machinery parts outside.

So he decided to provide technical training to the workers.

Led by Lai Youshan and the other senior technicians, they will do their best to improve the technical level of the workers.

Only when the technical level of the workers is high can they produce better industrial products.

Han Songlin understands this.

Why is German industrial machinery so good? It's because they have a large number of highly skilled workers.

This is the right way to learn from the Germans.

Unfortunately, it is really difficult to change the mentality of the Chinese after thousands of years.

It was changed for a short time under strong suppression, but now it seems that it is required to go back to the old ways.

Han Songlin wants Fuxing Industry to make a difference, so he must pay attention to the workers.

When it comes to this, Lai Youshan is happy.

'Now, those little brats seem like a different person. They are serious about learning technology. In the past, I have never seen them so serious.'

Han Songlin chuckles lightly. Naturally, he knows why there has been such a change.

The wage gap between a first-class worker and a second-class worker is too big.

The higher up the ranks, the bigger the gap.

A few hundred yuan a month makes a difference, and no one is happy about it.

But the gap is not due to anything else, but skill.

There is no way to fake skill level.

Once skill is linked to money, everyone's motivation naturally rises.

Chinese people have never been afraid of hardship or hard work; they are afraid that their efforts will not be rewarded.

'This is a good thing! Lao Lai, what do you think about the factory recruiting some good students from vocational high school to train?'

'From vocational high school?' Lai Youshan subconsciously wanted to refuse. No one knew what vocational high school was like.

'Yes, the children in vocational high school have their own future development direction as skilled workers. Although there are many slackers in vocational high school, there are also many good students.'

The reputation of vocational high school has really been ruined by some people.

Many junior high school students choose to go to vocational high school, not because they can't get into a regular high school, but because they have to due to their family's financial situation.

They have to get a job as soon as possible to relieve the financial pressure on their families.

'So why don't you just choose from the children in the third year of junior high school?'

Choose from the children in the third year of junior high school?

They are child labourers, aren't they?

Wait, who cares about that now.

State-owned enterprises themselves used child labour in the past.

In the past, when state-owned enterprises took on junior positions, many of the children in the family were not old enough, not even sixteen years old, but they were still able to take on their parents' positions.

'I need to think about this carefully.'

Han Songlin's own plan was to cooperate with vocational high schools.

Let the children learn technology, but Han Songlin also did not plan to stop them from continuing their cultural courses.

Having only technology, but no spirit, is not what Han Songlin wants. The spirit of the nation is in the books.

'Anyway, we'll do whatever you say,' Lai Youshan still gave Han Songlin, his boss, face.

Han Songlin wasn't talking about this, but something else: 'Lai Lao, you should know some workers with good skills, right?'

'Ah, I know some!'

Lai Youshan really knew quite a few people with good skills.

In the past, technical competitions were not organised very often.

Those who could participate were all well-known figures in their respective factories.

Han Songlin's face broke into a smile, and those who knew him well knew that this smile was definitely up to no good.

'So, do you know of anyone who is not doing well in their factory, and we could try to invite them to work in our factory?'

Han Songlin had been thinking along these lines.

Lai Youshan hesitated for a moment, and thought it was not a bad idea. It would be better for everyone if their skills were not wasted, and they could come to Fuxing Industrial.

At the very least, Fuxing Industries is full of vitality.

As for the future production of Fuxing Industries, Lai Youshan is not worried at all.

The tractor that is currently being tested in the factory was built by him and his team.

He just doesn't know if the tractor will sell well.

Thinking about this, Lai Youshan looked at Han Songlin.

It should sell well, after all, Han Songlin chose it.

Han Songlin is so rich, so it must be right.

'Then, I'll write a letter and ask.'

Write a letter?

Han Songlin wanted to say, 'Just call them!'

But then he thought about the current state of communications, and decided that it was better to write a letter.

'Lai, you can tell them in your letter that they can first come to visit Fortune Star Industries. If they are satisfied, they can stay. If they are not satisfied, they can come to visit you and have fun. The factory will reimburse their travel expenses and food and accommodation costs.'

Lai Youshan was really surprised. Is that really possible?

'Good!'

Lai Youshan decided that after returning home, he would ask his son and daughter to help him write letters.

He would read them and they would write!

Who could ask Lai Youshan not to read?

Han Songlin didn't feel anything, but if a few Grade 8 workers came, he could smile in his sleep.

It was very comfortable.

Han Songlin was talking to Lai Youshan when he saw Yang Zixing come in, so he waved to greet him.

Yang Zixing came over after he had finished cooking.

Although stir-fry can be cooked in the kitchen, it is rarely cooked.

This is because you have to pay for it yourself.

Big pot dishes are very good, so why bother with stir-fry?

Seeing Yang Zixing sit down, Lai Youshan asked, 'Yang, you have been testing the tractor for a few days now, when will you be able to make a decision?'

'Well...' Yang Zixing was a little embarrassed. To be honest, he also wanted to make a decision sooner.

But the tests haven't been completed, and there may be some problems that haven't been discovered.

If a decision is made directly, and then problems are discovered after the product is sold to the customer, it will be troublesome.

Han Songlin has always emphasised that Fuxing Industrial sells its customers not just a product, but also a guarantee of quality.

Han Songlin also looked at Yang Zixing, who, to be honest, wasn't really panicking about this either.

It didn't make much difference whether it was sooner or later.

'We still have to do the long-distance load test, but we'll start that tomorrow. There are also some other tests. We expect to be able to finish all the tests in a month at most.'

After each test, a comprehensive inspection of the vehicle will be carried out.

This will determine the wear and tear of the parts.

The worn parts will be analysed to determine the cause.

Was it because the parts were defective, or was it because of a design problem?

Building a tractor that can be driven on the road is easy!

It is difficult to build a tractor that people can use with confidence.

Fuxing Industry could actually have produced the tractor and put it on the market without going through all kinds of tests.

The market really doesn't have high demands when it comes to product quality.

Han Songlin knew this as well.

But Han Songlin did not do this. Fuxing Industry had to establish the mindset of valuing quality from the very beginning.

This had to be integrated into the company's blood.

Otherwise, if it doesn't attach importance to quality at the beginning, how can we expect it to suddenly produce high-quality products one day in the future?

That's ridiculous!

The essence of a company is not something that can be easily changed.
