Chapter 76 – Is There Some Problem

Is there something wrong with Chapter 76?

When Zhao Guoyang came to Liang Hongjun’s office, Minister Liang was sitting at his desk, looking at a note in his hand in a daze.

This note is Mr. Li Kejian’s contact information.

When parting, Li Lao handed the note to Liang Hongjun, naturally asking him to contact him as soon as he found someone.

Seeing off Mr. Li, Liang Hongjun immediately called Wang Hongxi to the office and asked him to check the list of outsiders entering and exiting the factory today.

Wang Hongxi is Liang Hongjun’s confidant, and he is very prudent in doing things. With him in charge of this matter, Liang Hongjun can rest assured.

Actually, Liang Hongjun is still in a state of ups and downs and excitement at the moment. Today, during the inspection process accompanied by Mr. Li, he saw the envious glances from time to time from those directors on the board of directors who usually don’t want to see him.

Liang Hongjun also answered several professional questions raised by Mr. Li. Although it is not perfect, he feels that he can get 80 points no matter what.

At the end of the inspection, Chairman Ma Guoqiang patted Liang Hongjun on the shoulder with great satisfaction, and reminded him not to forget to attend the executive meeting tomorrow.

The hidden meaning of this, even those high-level board members can guess it.

Liang Hongjun never expected that an inspection by the central leadership would give him such a great opportunity, a huge opportunity to step from a middle-level cadre to a high-level one.

While thinking about his thoughts, Liang Hongjun secretly felt a little grateful for the young people that Old Li said.

Thinking about it, if he didn’t appear, Mr. Li would definitely not call his name and let him accompany him, and there would be nothing else to do next.

Zhao Guoyang, who came in a hurry, stood at the door and knocked lightly, and shouted: “Minister Liang!”

However, Liang Hongjun didn’t seem to hear it, and still sat there in a daze.

Seeing his wandering eyes, Zhao Guoyang smiled for a while—it turns out that people like Minister Liang also have moments of trance.

He couldn’t help coughing, raised his voice, and finally woke up Liang Hongjun who was in a trance.

“Ah, Guoyang, you are here!” Seeing Zhao Guoyang, Liang Hongjun smiled embarrassedly and said, “Sorry, I was just thinking about something, and my mind was distracted for a while.”

Zhao Guoyang said indifferently: “It’s okay, maybe I came by accident and disturbed Minister Liang.”

Liang Hongjun was amused by Zhao Guoyang’s words, smiled and put the note back in his pocket, stood up and said: “Guoyang, we are all acquaintances, so there is no need to be courteous. Let’s go and see the frame of your factory!”

Of course Zhao Guoyang wished for it. He could get the frame work done as soon as possible, so he could spare a little more time to discuss with Bai Rou about his small workshop.

Following Liang Hongjun to the workshop inspection department, Zhao Guoyang found that the station master Xiao was standing in front of the imported German desktop Rockwell hardness tester and kept shaking his head.

Beside the instrument, it looks like the C100 frame in my factory.

“Hey, no, no…” Stationmaster Xiao looked at the data displayed by the instrument and said to himself.

Seeing his pensive look, Liang Hongjun said loudly: “Hey, Lao Xiao, what’s going on, what’s wrong?”

Stationmaster Xiao heard the voice, turned his head quickly, saw Liang Hongjun, and then looked at Zhao Guoyang standing beside him, he didn’t know how to speak.

Liang Hongjun didn’t understand what was going on, but Zhao Guoyang did.

With his extraordinary eyesight, he had already glanced at the data on the report, and when he saw that it was QSTE380TM material, he knew it clearly.

Come to think of it, this stationmaster Xiao found out that there was something wrong with the material of the frame according to the drawings, but seeing that he and Liang Hongjun got close, he was afraid that he would be hated if he said it directly, so he didn’t know how to say it.

Thinking of this, Zhao Guoyang immediately opened his mouth and said calmly: “Master Xiao, is this C100 frame produced by our factory, the material of the welding of the main column and the bending part of the main beam does not conform to your inspection drawings?”

As soon as Station Master Xiao heard Zhao Guoyang’s words, he knew that he knew it well, so he no longer concealed it.

“Section Chief Zhao, you are right, this is indeed the case.” Station Master Xiao handed the report in his hand to Liang Hongjun and said.

“Look, Minister Liang, this C100 frame from Hongda Machinery Factory, the material of the welding of the main column and the bending part of the main beam, the test result is QSTE380TM.”

“As for the Shunxin Machinery Factory that supplied us before, this one used Q345. I compared the drawings and found that our drawings are also standard Q345. Is there something wrong with this…”

After listening to Mr. Xiao’s report, Liang Hongjun was overjoyed, he turned his head to Zhao Guoyang and said with a smile: “Chief Zhao, your Hongda Machinery Factory is really serious enough to use the more expensive QSTE380TM instead of Q345? I don’t even know what to say.”

Liang Hongjun naturally knows the difference between QSTE380TM and Q345.

No matter in terms of strength or toughness, QSTE380TM is definitely better, and it is absolutely no problem to replace Q345.

But in terms of price, QSTE380TM is more than 30% more expensive than Q345.

In most cases, the frame manufacturers sometimes choose to use Q235 instead of Q335 on some unimportant parts for the sake of some cheap price. This kind of situation is relatively common, and Liang Hongjun has encountered it more than once.

But Zhao Guoyang and his Hongda Machinery Factory actually replaced it with better materials. This is the first time Liang Hongjun has encountered such a thing in so many years.

Zhao Guoyang didn’t take Liang Hongjun’s half-joking question to heart.

He stepped forward to pat the frame in his factory, turned to look at Liang Hongjun and said, “Minister Liang, I remember when you came here last time, you seemed to mention that after the C100 underbone bike comes on the market, it will Go all out to develop the Southeast Asian and Latin American markets, that is to say, this model is aimed at exporting, right?”

Liang Hongjun was taken aback when he heard the words, and nodded subconsciously: “That’s right, for the C100 model, our tests in all aspects have almost been completed, and a lot of data has been released.”

“According to our estimates, the performance and manufacturing process of this car are very competitive among similar products in the world. As long as the price is not too high, there should be no big problem in opening up secondary markets such as Southeast Asia and Latin America. .”

When Liang Hongjun was talking, the stationmaster Xiao beside him was confused for a while, not understanding why Minister Liang was talking so much with the people from the foreign supporting factory.

After listening to Liang Hongjun’s narration, Zhao Guoyang just smiled: “Minister Liang, if this car from your factory is only exported to Southeast Asia, this modification of our factory is completely meaningless and increases the cost in vain, but if your export target is Latin America This one, then our changes are very necessary.”

“This…” Liang Hongjun’s heart moved, and he immediately thought of something, and stopped talking for a while.
