Intelligent Industrial Empire

Chapter 406 The Insidious Hidden Behind the Olive Branch (2)

Wu Zhongda was stunned.

How does he know what else is there?

"The 132 factory and Ye Xuanmei's shareholding were not the orders of the old man?" He asked Yun Fei in surprise.

Originally, Wu Zhongda was not qualified to take care of these things, but Yun Fei told him these things at first, mainly for his future work.

"I will give you the bottom of this matter today, and I hope you will not spread it out." It stands to reason that the production of monocrystalline silicon crystallization furnaces is a profitable business.At least, the local collective enterprises that sell tungsten and molybdenum ore are very wealthy owners.

Wu Zhongda wanted to tell Yun Fei that he didn't want to hear the secrets of Shenma, but his curiosity prevented him from making any objections.

For those profitable projects, Yunfei is generally unwilling to let outsiders get involved. Just like the current Jiuyi Heavy Industry, if Yunfei agrees to sell a part of the shares, it will be easy to expand the scale, and it will not be like now. Scale up little by little, and have to send out most of the machining business.

"Tungsten and molybdenum materials are heavy metals, do you know this?" Yun Fei asked Wu Zhongda with a serious face. This secret has a lot to do with the quality of tungsten and molybdenum raw materials.

Hearing Yun Fei's question, Wu Zhongda nodded hurriedly, but he was thinking in his heart, what is the purpose of Yun Fei's mentioning this now.

Tungsten is a chemical element with the chemical symbol W and atomic number 74. It is a very hard, steel gray to white transition metal. The density of pure tungsten with a purity of 99.995% is 19.35gcm?.Its physical characteristics are very strong, especially the melting point is very high, as high as 3340°C, which is the highest among all non-alloy metals.Pure tungsten is mainly used in electrical and electronic equipment, and many of its compounds and alloys are also used in many other applications (the most common is the filament of a light bulb, and it is also used in X-ray tubes and in high-temperature alloys. Of course, it is metal cutting tools. ——The most important component of alloy cutting tools).

Molybdenum is a chemical element, the chemical symbol is W, the atomic number is 42, and the physical characteristics are also very high. The density of 99.99% pure molybdenum is 10.2gcm. The nickel-based superalloy containing 18% molybdenum has a high melting point (over 2600°C) and density. Low thermal expansion coefficient and other characteristics, used in the manufacture of various high-temperature components for aviation and aerospace.More than 50% of molybdenum in the world is used to make stainless steel every year.

"If these elements are only used for steelmaking, there is no problem, especially molybdenum, which is a trace element necessary for the human body. But in the production of various parts on our single crystal silicon crystallization furnace, these heavy metal elements Human body inhales too much..." Yun Fei believes that Wu Zhongda, who studies mechanical manufacturing, should be able to understand the hazards inside.

"So what? Since the establishment of Factory 754 in the 1960s, hasn't there been any problems?" In this era, occupational disease inspection and protection are far less formal than later generations.

Otherwise, it will not wait until the 21st century when countless silicosis patients in China will die unwillingly after suffering torment.

"..." Yun Fei was speechless. How could he tell Wu Zhongda about the research report that later generations almost bankrupted in 7 May 4?

"In the processing of tungsten and molybdenum products, because the melting point is too high, it is impossible to smelt them into blanks like ordinary metal elements. Generally, they are sieved through powder (select those with larger particles in the microscopic state)-billet-isostatic Pressing—powder turning (powder turning)—metal sintering—finishing turning—polishing these processes. These heavy metals, after entering the human body through the respiratory tract, can no longer be eliminated from the body. After a long time in such an environment, the human body will accumulate Too much, you will get silicosis, do you know?" Yun Fei had to explain to Wu Zhongda.

He needs Wu Zhongda to understand, otherwise, if this product is urged to use 91 materials to produce tungsten and molybdenum products without his knowledge, he will be overthrown by public opinion.

"What's the matter? The density of these two metal elements is inherently large. Where can they easily enter the human respiratory system?" Wu Zhongda did not expect that Yun Fei would give up such a large market for this reason.

"You know what a fart, masks, etc., there is no way to stop those fine dusts that are invisible to the naked eye from entering the human body! They are state-owned enterprises and can produce such things, but we are a private enterprise. If the employees in the enterprise With an occupational disease, when the media hype, who can afford it?" Yun Fei almost roared.

Since China's reform and opening up, it has been continuously attracting investment and many foreign-funded enterprises have entered China.

Among them, high-tech and some of the more advanced foreign investment in production technology are mainly concentrated in China's rare resources.

For example, China's tungsten and molybdenum, China's rare earth, these advanced production technology and advanced equipment, all come from abroad.The production technology of tungsten and molybdenum products in China can be said to be the only advanced production technology in the world that is not kept secret from China.

The main reason why these companies export advanced production technology and advanced manufacturing technology to China is to import finished products from China!

Is the foreigner so kind?

No!

The reason why they would rather spend a high price to purchase finished products from China is because in the production process, these heavy metal materials not only pollute the environment, but also harm the workers in the workshop.

In terms of environmental protection, China will never catch up with foreign countries.

Similarly, regarding workers' rights, although the country has clear laws and regulations, not many people will enforce them.Because most companies that produce such products are state-owned enterprises and township collective enterprises that are leading local economies.

"..." Wu Zhongda did not expect that Yun Fei would have such a big fire.

"I tell you, if you work in such an environment for a long time, the average person's life span will not exceed fifty!" Yun Fei didn't want to explain to Wu Zhongda again.

It is tiring to communicate with people in this age of changing the environment for development.

If this kind of thing is not personally experienced, no one will believe it.

After Yunfei entered the 754 factory that year, he often dealt with the tungsten and molybdenum production workshops, and he knew the environment very well.In any workshop, no matter how clean it is, within a few days, whether it is equipment or the ground, the entire workshop will be covered with a layer of tungsten and molybdenum powder.

When the 754 plant was selling the plant land in the center of Chengdu, an Erdao dealer who specializes in recycling tungsten and molybdenum spent tens of millions to clean the sewers of the 754 plant. They made millions in a few days!Moreover, the sewers of the 754th factory were scoured again after being spent several times.

These powders in the sewers are flushed into the sewers by people in various workshops directly flushing the ground with a tap when they are doing general cleaning on weekends!

Back then, Yun Fei experienced a crisis in Factory 754, and that was a temporary labor incident in Factory 754.

Perhaps I also know that the 7 May Fourth management seldom go to the production workshop, unless a particularly serious accident or other things are discovered, many leaders will not even appear in the production workshop once a day.Is it because they are busy?

Wrong, they knew that the invisible powder in the air in the workshop would kill them.

After entering the 21st century, as China began to provide work eight years later, these Chinese companies have had a lot of flexibility under the employment mechanism. The employment system of the 754 Factory has been changed to contract workers and temporary workers coexist.

Technicians and management are basically using contract workers, while the main production force in the workshop is all recruiting temporary workers in the labor market. The contracts for these temporary workers are signed every year. Under normal circumstances, temporary workers in the 754 Factory, The company will not sign contracts with them for five years.

Of course, if people continue to work and perform well, the company will find ways to transfer them to work in workshops where the environment is slightly better and the dust is not too heavy.The company’s official statement is to reward workers who perform well.

Ordinary temporary workers will not spend more than three years in the 754 Factory, because not many people can afford the 20-hour shift system.Since factory 754 has temporary workers, they don’t want other companies to shift shifts. They work for 24 hours in each shift for eight hours a day. After a 48-hour break, they will continue to work for 24 hours!In other words, temporary workers at the 754 Factory have no rest time at all, except for national legal holidays.

Even for contract workers, there are not many college students and few can stay in the 754 Factory for a long time.

In the 21st century, the 754 factory did not have the technical strength of the era when the state package was allocated. Many college graduates would leave as soon as they entered the factory and practiced for a few days. Wearing several layers of masks, when you get off work, there will be a thick layer of powder in your nostrils that is so thin that you can't see what the naked eye means.

It is precisely because of this that, just after the first ten years of the 21st century, a contract worker who had resigned from the Seventh Five-Year Plan was diagnosed with an occupational disease. He revealed on the Internet that it was too tricky, almost making the entire Seventh Five-Year The fourth factory went bankrupt.At the same time, it also allowed their group company's stock to fall to the limit for one week in a row!

"I know you still don't believe it, you don't need to deny it, wait a day or two, when we go to the 754 factory for inspection, you will be able to understand it after seeing the environment yourself!" Yun Fei was speechless.

He really didn't want to go to such a harsh production environment to recall his tragic experience.

Although he was in the machining workshop back then, the dust hazard was far less serious than that of the isostatic pressing workshop and wire drawing workshop.
