Chapter 584 Changchun Fertilizer Plant
Changchun Fertilizer Plant,
Colorful flags fluttered at the factory gate, and the bright red flags fluttered in the breeze, as if cheering for this grand event. The workers were all in high spirits, with smiles of pride and joy on their faces. They came to the factory early in their new work clothes, ready to witness this exciting moment.
With the sound of a clear whistle, the commissioning ceremony officially began.
Mei Ping, along with leaders from all levels of Changchun City, excitedly sat on the temporary podium.
This is the first factory put into production built by Mulan City in Changchun!
On Mei Ping's left, Yin Xinjun was also very happy. Changchun acted quickly and they quickly renovated the old factory!
After this fertilizer plant goes into operation, it will produce 30 tons of synthetic ammonia annually, which can meet the needs of approximately 900 million acres of farmland!
The soil may be fertile or lean, and different types of crops require different amounts of fertilizer. At this time, farmers have begun to use farmyard manure such as manure and wood ash, but the effectiveness of pure farmyard manure is definitely not as good as chemical fertilizers.
Mei Ping, Yin Xinjun and others walked into the workshop of the fertilizer factory, where a faint pungent smell permeated the air. This is the key place where synthetic ammonia is converted into fertilizer, and the roar of the machines interweaves into a unique industrial movement.
The huge synthesis tower stands in the center of the workshop, like a silent and majestic giant. Synthetic ammonia undergoes a series of complex and precise chemical reactions in the tower, laying the foundation for subsequent conversions. Synthetic ammonia slowly flows out of the tower, like a transparent stream, carrying huge energy and mission, and enters the connected pipeline.
Yin Xinjun said,
"Mayor Mei is so efficient. Changchun's agricultural harvest shouldn't be a problem this year!"
Spring ploughing has not yet begun, but these fertilizers can at least meet the fertilizer demand of 50% of Changchun’s cultivated land this year. They can even be used as base fertilizer for some farmland and as top dressing for most farmland!
Mei Ping said,
"The key is to rely on the equipment provided by your Mulan Special Zone, as well as raw materials such as phosphate ore and potash ore. What we need to do is very simple! Isn't it just a simple transformation of the factory?"
Phosphate mines and potash mines are also key resources in Yin Xinjun's space. There are three of each, which can basically meet the fertilizer needs of 8000 million acres of arable land!
Yin Xinjun said,
"This month, Bin County Fertilizer Plant and Fangzheng County Fertilizer Plant are about to start production. Each of them has a 30-ton synthetic ammonia production line. This month, three 3-ton production lines have been put into production!
Unfortunately, the fertilizer plants in the interior are moving too slowly and are still under construction. In addition, the electricity supply cannot keep up. First, the power plant units must be expanded, but it is estimated that they will be put into production by the end of the year. We should be able to look forward to a bumper grain harvest across the country next year!"
Yin Xinjun has calculated that if the production capacity of synthetic ammonia reaches 2000 million tons, the whole country can solve the problem of food and clothing. If the production capacity reaches 3000 million tons, there will be a huge surplus of grain!
By this calculation, at least 100 fertilizer plants need to be built across the country!
A few people left the fertilizer plant and came to the Changchun Engine Factory. This factory was ready, the equipment installation and debugging were completed, and all the personnel were in place. They planned to start production tomorrow!
Yin Xinjun came to the workshop.
Li Chenghua, the director of the engine factory, was originally promoted from the deputy director of the engine workshop of the tank area of the Mulan Arsenal.
As soon as he saw Yin Xinjun, he excitedly reported,
"Reporting to the old factory director, the engine factory is ready and can start production tomorrow!"
Looking at the brand new machine tools in the workshop, Yin Xinjun said to Li Chenghua,
"Have you studied all the drawings I arranged to be sent to you?"
"Old factory director, this is nothing. A 100-horsepower engine is not as powerful as a Type 4 tank!"
"Okay, you are familiar with this job. I only have one request. Starting from next month, deliver 200 engines every month!"
"Yes, I will ensure that the task is completed!" Li Chenghua answered neatly.
Yin Xinjun turned to Mei Ping and said,
"This time I will put all the bus production tasks in Changchun. Starting from July, I hope that buses will be sent to all parts of the country!"
The first batch of factories in Changchun’s automobile industry chain include four: the engine factory, the tire factory, the chassis factory, and the Changchun Bus Factory!
Several core components of the bus, as well as the final assembly, are all produced in Changchun.
Mei Ping said happily,
"The tire and chassis plants will also start operations within five days, and the final assembly plant will officially open next month. Don't worry, this will definitely satisfy you!"
"Well, the production task is still very heavy. I think the workshop of the factory still needs to be expanded. The buses and long-distance coaches in the whole country may rely on Changchun in the next three years!"
Building an automobile manufacturing plant requires huge investments in personnel, sites, equipment, technical drawings, and all aspects. Only the Northeast has the industrial foundation to do this!
The whole country needs to buy buses from Changchun? This market is so huge, Mei Ping is excited just thinking about it!
"By the way, is it possible to outsource those outsourced jobs to business owners in Changchun? Several people are asking this!"
Mei Ping asked again,
Yin Xinjun knew that she was referring to the bus frame, interior, seats, fuel tank, etc. He shook his head and said,
"Don't worry about it. It's definitely not possible this year. There's something big happening at the end of the year, so we have to do it as soon as possible. Currently, only Mulan's private enterprises have the ability to outsource. Of course, you can also arrange for someone to investigate. Starting next year, the outsourcing bidding for the buses will be left to you guys!"
Mei Ping and Li Chenghua couldn't help but ask,
"What's the big deal?"
Yin Xinjun smiled. He couldn’t say that there would be a founding ceremony in Beijing on October 10st!
"Haha, this is a secret. Anyway, the production plan can only be advanced, not postponed!"
After leaving the fertilizer factory, Yin Xinjun went to the Changchun Aircraft Manufacturing Factory alone. This place was under his direct jurisdiction, and it was not convenient for Mei Ping to go there.
Changchun Aircraft Manufacturing Plant is positioned to produce transport aircraft. There are two models, C46 and C47, including passenger and cargo versions.
Mei Ping also found the factory building for this factory. It was previously called Manchuria Heavy Industry Development Corporation. However, Yin Xinjun felt that it was a bit small, covering only 600 acres, and many facilities were not perfect.
The director of the aircraft manufacturing plant is named Xiao Rong, who was formerly the deputy director of the aircraft area of Mulan Arsenal!
This time when he came to Changchun, he brought more than 1800 employees!
Xiao Rong accompanied Yin Xinjun on a tour.
The machines are roaring and all the employees are busy.
A total of four types of aircraft are currently being produced simultaneously.
However, precision parts such as aircraft engines and vehicle-mounted electronic equipment are still produced at the Mulan Arsenal!
Xiao Rong said,
"Mr. Yin, the earliest we can get the first batch of aircraft off the production line is December this year. The current difficulty is that we are seriously short of manpower! And we also need to expand the factory..."
Yin Xinjun said,
"Write a report about the factory expansion and I'll review it. As for the personnel, the Mulan Arsenal is also very short of manpower right now. However, starting next week, a large number of trainees will be coming from the interior. By then, I'll try to assign you a group of veterans!"
However, it would be fine if the transport plane could catch up with the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea by the end of next year!
