Rebirth 1990: I have three golden fingers

As the company holiday approaches, Fang Bai is busy finishing work at the machinery company and technology company.

VCD players have been in mass production for more than a month. New tooling fixtures have been put into use, work efficiency has been greatly improved, and quality has also been improved. Currently, 155,000 VCD players have been stocked and packed into boxes.

The size of a VCD player is 350 mm long, 210 mm wide, and 35 mm high. After packing, it is 400*250*60. Ten thousand units is 60 cubic meters, which almost occupies the space of a small room.

If there are one million units, just to store these goods, a large warehouse will have to be prepared, and they cannot be piled too many together.

If it catches fire, it will be a complete disaster.

One million units, not to mention the market value, would cost two to three billion yuan.

This is not because Fang Bai is worried, but because this situation is very easy to happen, a lot of effort has been put into fire prevention work alone.

In addition, since it will take a long time to go on the market, it is still necessary to do a good job in preventing moisture.

The machine is packed with plastic film and placed in a box, with a moisture-proof and mildew-proof desiccant bag inside.

The company's management didn't understand that the company had stocked up so many products, and Fang Bai was still unwilling to go public or promote it.

Fang Bai just replied: "Wait!"

What are you waiting for?

They couldn't understand and couldn't guess. At the same time, all employees were prohibited from publicizing that the company was producing this thing, and they were prohibited from accepting interviews with the media. They could probably guess that the chairman was playing a big game.

The management couldn't figure out the chairman's specific thoughts. If it were them, they would have been unable to resist the listing.

But for Fang Bai, these one million units in the early stage are just a side dish. He wants to occupy a large share of this market and does not want to affect sales due to insufficient production capacity and insufficient inventory.

The laser head and micro servo motor are under development and a patent application has been submitted. After the development is successful, it is planned to outsource the production of most parts.

As for decoding chips, stock up!

After the Chinese New Year, Fang Bai plans to go abroad to discuss cooperation with Chou Guo Si Gao Bai Company, hoping to get a more favorable price. With a golden finger, he can guess the lowest price.

In addition, Fang Bai has another purpose.

It would be even better if you could visit the factory equipment. As long as Fang Bai touched the products and equipment, the virtual drawings after analysis can be saved.

Fang Bai analyzed the chip and was able to know the design drawing of the chip, but he did not know what equipment it used to produce it, or even the drawings of these equipment.

In the early 1990s, due to economic conditions and policy restrictions, there were not many opportunities to study abroad.

Only a few wealthy families or through various scholarships and exchange programs can realize this dream.

At the same time, applying for and arranging to study abroad is relatively difficult and requires tedious procedures.

Of course, it is not difficult for Fang Bai. Asking John or Scoop Company to send invitation letters, going out is also a business matter, earning foreign exchange for the country, and will bring a few people out when the time comes.

Fang Bai really didn't want to go out if it wasn't necessary.

A few days later, January 15th, the Northern Lunar New Year.

Light snow fell from the sky, gently covering the factory buildings and equipment.

Workers in the factory are wearing thick military coats, hats and gloves. Some are checking the power supply of equipment, and some are painting lines.

The weather is a bit cold, but the employees are in a very good mood. The company is officially on holiday today, and they will start receiving year-end bonuses in the afternoon.

Workshop employees who have worked for more than half a year will receive a one-month year-end bonus.

The year-end bonus for Xinghai Technology Company's technical staff is two months' salary, and the managers' salary is also two months' salary. This is a guaranteed year-end bonus.

Xinghai Machinery Company has good profits. The year-end bonus for workshop employees is two months’ salary. Technicians and managers receive two months more than workshop workers.

The year-end bonus is paid directly in cash, after tax, and can be claimed after signing.

One afternoon, the air in the whole company was filled with joy. Everyone had a crooked smile on their face. When they saw a colleague they didn't know, they would say hello, "Brother, get your money."

Only some employees who joined the company later felt depressed because they could not receive the full year-end bonus, especially those who had not yet become full-time employees and received even less.

It's a bit psychologically unbalanced, but considering that other senior employees have paid so much for the company, it's normal for them to get more than them.

In addition to year-end bonuses, there are also technology, craftsmanship, and tooling optimization awards. At the end of the year, the bonuses are also very generous and will be distributed together today.

There are several levels, the lowest is a hundred yuan, the highest is more than 10,000 yuan, you can get it based on your ability.

However, there are no major problems with the company's technology and workmanship, and it is not easy to get it, and the chairman personally makes the final review.

At this time, Fang Bai was drinking tea and reading various year-end reports in the office.

Qin Shuyu was already on vacation and was sitting on the sofa to help him review his finances.

The New Year is almost here, and he has not assigned new tasks to the management. He must let his subordinates have a good New Year, otherwise they will not forget about the company and complain about the boss throughout the New Year.

Outside the office, the management was queuing up to report on the past year, which was also a report on their work. After listening to it, Fang Bai came to a conclusion. He usually doesn't have time to read the year-end report, so he saved it until today.

"We did a good job last year. Celebrate the new year well. The new factory will be put into use next year. Work hard this year." Fang Bai only briefly looked at the year-end summary and did not mention any problems. He was an encouragement to every management.

"Thank you, Chairman. I will work hard! I did not do some work well this year, and I feel a little ashamed."

Hearing the chairman say this, every management breathed a sigh of relief.

They don't dare to falsify their work reports. The chairman often goes to the workshop and pays attention to every work.

Moreover, the chairman has a very good memory and can remember the names of most employees, and can even call out the names of some old employees in the workshop.

Well, he is a super academic!

"Haha, it's normal to make mistakes when doing things. The main thing is to see if you can correct it and not make the same mistakes again. It's not a big problem. Have a good New Year and pay attention to safety on the road." Fang Bai smiled and didn't take it seriously.

Every once in a while, he detects the information status of the company's management and knows whether it has done a good job.

Throughout the day, Fang Bai listened to the management's work report, especially explaining the daily inventory inspection work at the technology company, and doing a good job in fire prevention and theft prevention during the holidays.

In the new factory in Pudong New Area, the steel structure factory building is being constructed very quickly and the equipment will be installed after the year. Fang Bai still has to find time to visit the equipment manufacturer.

There will be a lot of work after the new year, including business negotiations abroad. At the same time, he is responsible for scientific research work such as computers, 45-meter pump trucks, concrete mixer trucks, concrete mixing stations, and small 45-kilowatt diesel engines.

Although most of the scientific research work is left to employees, he is responsible for the final review and evaluation, as well as managing the company and studying. There is always endless things to do.

Last year, the machinery company's revenue was good. It completed the sales of 300 ground pumps very early, and the actual sales volume reached 710 units. It has started to increase sharply since the end of the industrial exhibition.

The number of pump trucks has also reached 100.

Last year's sales reached 690 million yuan, of which exports were approximately US$25 million.

There are still some new orders that have not yet been delivered, and those for export have already been shipped.

In 1993, Fangbai formulated a sales plan of 2,000 ground pumps and 400 pump trucks.

As for new products, no sales targets have been set yet.

Fang Bai planned to ask his parents about the revenue of the real estate company and Xinghai Plaza after returning home.

Today, the machinery company is Fang Bai's main source of income, followed by the real estate company, Xinghai Plaza and Xinghai Construction Company.

But Fang Bai has never touched the company's funds outside the machinery company, which are all used for continued expansion.

After the year-end is over, Fang Bai has no plans to hold an annual meeting or have a year-end dinner.

Today's hotels are not large in scale. There is no place that can accommodate thousands of people for annual meetings and year-end dinners. The company's cafeteria is too small. If you really want to hold year-end dinners, you can only set up tables outside the cafeteria. It's so cold that it's hard to eat.

After the new factory in Pudong New Area is put into use, the space will be spacious enough to host annual meetings every year.

Fang Bai is full of expectations for the new factory. (End of chapter)
