Chapter 420 Suppliers

When Su Cheng returned to Dahua Shipping Industry, the first five low-tonage ships had been launched for use.

Most of the second batch of five experimental ships were completed.

Board processing workshop, plane segmented production line, standard segmented assembly area, hull segmented assembly table, trailer, overhead crane, downstream shipbuilding station and other shipyard institutions, along the first line of the Huangpu River...

or new or old equipment is constantly transported from the dock, and then installed forward along the layout of Dahua's factory.

Dahua Gas Company and Jichai Power Plant have sent hundreds of people to help. The 200 senior technicians promised by Jiangnan Shipyard are also busy on the front line of production. There is no problem with their skills. At least a skilled worker with ten years of experience is also a good hand abroad. At this time, it is thrown to Dahua Shipping Industry, which makes the workshops much easier.

Nevertheless, the internal atmosphere of Dahua Shipping Industry is quite solemn.

The fastest time is 250 days, that is, 8 months to make a boat, which often happens abroad, but for the shipping companies in China, they have never thought about it.

Put on the journals of colleges and universities, the ship will immediately fill the gap of the country, which is enough for at least two professors and five associate professors.

Su Cheng invited more than a dozen ship experts from colleges and universities through Li Cang. In fact, he also had the same idea. Su Cheng acquiesced that they could write their work in their own articles. Those experts who usually play big are immediately obedient like thin scalpers.

Dahua Shipping's own engineers do not need to publish articles to evaluate professional titles. These benefits given to colleges and universities will not affect Dahua, but can attract more people to help.

In heavy industrial production such as the shipbuilding industry, there are many technical experts who are not free.

A ship is a set of engineering projects. In other words, the design of a table can find a theoretical basis. In reality, there is always nothing wrong with the guidance of more theoretical basis. The media in later generations always like to describe the goods made in China by the lack of humanization. In fact, the lack of humanization is the lack of professional designers and professional theoretical engineers. Apple and Sony's things are really beautiful. They are piled up by countless designers. It is also a button. Foreign designers spend 200 hours on design, which means that the company pays more than 100,000 US dollars for half a year in exchange for just a button. The budget of a domestic enterprise to make a product may be more than one million yuan, and the result is naturally different.

Put it on a ship, and the things made by 10 designers and engineers are naturally rougher than the things made by 100 designers and engineers.

On the other hand, the design of the process method of the production process is quite helpful for the improvement of productivity.

Lay the steel plate first and then weld it. It sounds simple. You can lay the plate first and where to weld it first, but the result may be different.

Especially in the narrow hull, the welding robot is not used, and the welder can't even reach in. In this case, considering welding in advance can reduce a lot of trouble.

Sucheng is running around the shipyard, Dahua Laboratory and Dahua Group headquarters day and night. Fortunately, other companies have entered the formalities. Setan Oilfield, Dahua Gas Company and Dahua Transportation Company have a perfect organizational system and management team. Although Dahua Petrochemical is in the process of further expansion, the steps and procedures are determined, and there is no part that Sucheng must participate in. Not to mention the joint-venture Deppon water heater, Shu Hao has long developed it into a cash cow, and they deal more with Shenzhen Development Bank.

Saved time, Su City contributed all to these 9 ships.

Their total price may be only $500 million, and the profit may be less than $100 million, but they represent a door. Once completed, Dahua Shipping will not only be a supplier of offshore oil equipment, but also a major supplier of civil ships.

After all, it is enough to be proud of a shipbuilding company that can complete 300,000 tons in nine months, which will also be the best qualification of Dahua Shipping Industry.

But not everyone is optimistic about the future of Dahua Shipping Industry.

In 1993 [China], there is no such thing as the Internet. The only way for people to get foreign advice is to know what the mass media says on TV and in the newspaper. A better college can occasionally get some periodicals and TV clips from abroad, but it is also popular internally.

Even if the senior cadres of the country are not deliberately looking for, it is difficult to determine the degree of industrial development abroad. They only know that they are stronger than the Chinese themselves.

In this context, Dahua bid for ships that foreigners dare not bid for, bringing not only the cheers of shipyard workers, but also the worries of suppliers.

If Dahua Shipyard cannot deliver the goods on time, the compensation can cause it to go bankrupt. At that time, if Dahua Group is hopeless and let it go bankrupt, what should we do? There is no need to repudiate the bill. Many suppliers are unwilling to bear the arrears of goods.

Taking advantage of the approaching the end of the year, many suppliers came to the door one after another and asked to settle the previous payment.

There are not only small suppliers who owe hundreds of thousands of yuan, but also large enterprises that owe tens of millions of yuan. In the first two days, the supply chain department didn't take it seriously. Dahua's cash flow is abundant, and it has always been very happy to give money. According to the requirements of the supplier, it is almost paid by looking at the time.

However, when the undue payment application for accounts payable reached 20% in just a few days, Zhang Chao finally woke up.

While arranging his men to understand the situation, he drove to the shipyard to report the situation to Sucheng.

Recently, Sucheng worked at Dahua Laboratory or Dahua Group Headquarters in the morning and at the shipyard in the afternoon.

The process of shipbuilding is full of clues, and the preparations in the early stage alone are a headache, especially the procurement and other contents. If Su Cheng is present, he can directly approve the signature, which obviously make the progress much faster.

Zhang Chao drove by himself, and then walked along the road by the river. When he met the place where the crowd gathered, he shouted, "Is Su Dong there?"

It didn't take long to see Su Cheng.

Ser several engineers are surrounding Sucheng to determine the mechanical equipment. Each of them has written a report and is debating it.

Li Cang and several members of the procurement committee sat on the Mazha, besieged the city, and listened to them explain the reasons.

Although Zhang Chao is an international student, he still feels depressed when he listens to terms such as "emergency fire pump", "welded size" and "dical pores".

After standing for two minutes, he desperately winned at Yang Ming, pulled him to the back and talked about the payment application.

Yang Ming was first shocked and asked, "Is it a run?"

"We are not a bank, and we are not afraid of running runs." Zhang Chao said in a erratic voice, "I'm worried about something else."

"What?"

Zhang Chao didn't want to say it and had to say, "So many suppliers, if you act independently, I'm afraid they will unite. Recently, more than 300 suppliers have applied for payment. Once they stop supplying, the supply chain of Dahua Industry will be half paralyzed.

"What about the shipyard? Will the shipyard be affected? As the office director, Yang Ming can participate in the important business. It is clear that the most important thing for Dahua Industrial Group at present is the shipping company. Other projects can withstand short-term labor pains. If the shipyard is working overtime to catch up with the progress, it will have to die of pain.

Zhang Chao nodded slowly and said, "The initial construction of the shipyard's supply chain is the most brittle and weak."

"Wait a minute, I'll inform Su Dong." Yang Ming turned back and whispered softly to Su Cheng.

Su Cheng, who has been the chairman for 4 years, looked unchanged. After finishing the matter at hand, he got up and smiled and said, "Let's take a break."

Leaving the engineer arguing with the finance department, Su Cheng simply took Zhang Chao to the riverside and asked, "How much is the total amount?"

"There are 120 million in Dahua Shipping Industry. In just a few days, I'm afraid that other companies will also be affected." Yang Ming said and said his guess.

Su Cheng pondered for a moment and asked, "Which company has the largest withdrawal amount?"

"The steel structure of Shougang, 4 months ago."

"How long is the payment period of the contract?"

Flying month, there are still four months left. They were in a hurry, and the sales director of the other party was sitting in my office. Zhang Chao said solemnly, "I'm afraid of beating the wolf. If you don't give it, I'm afraid that people will say that we have no money in Dahua. Maybe it will really turn into a run. Moreover, those who want money are all our suppliers, and what they want is also their own money, but the time is a little earlier. "If you give it, I'm also afraid that the wait-and-see suppliers will come up to ask for money. No matter whether you use it or not, you can take the money in your hand in advance. I'm afraid

The payment period from half a year to a year is an industry rule. Because the payment period of heavy industry is already very long, it takes about a year for steel and other materials to be produced into ships. Shipowners often only pay a deposit and will not pay until they see the ship. Naturally, the shipyard will not pay the upstream factory until the other party pays.

This system will not change slightly until the Internet era, but it will not become a drug trading mode of one-hand payment and one-hand delivery.

If Dahua pays the upstream company in advance, and the downstream company does not pay, it will be empty, and if you are not careful, you will be grinded to death.

Therefore, after a moment of meditation, Su Cheng decided: "If the payment is due, if it is not due, it cannot be paid. It must be done in accordance with the contract. Dahua Industry has not only Dahua Shipping Industry, but also Dahua Petrochemical. If we pay, BASF will also ask to pay the billions of dollars in advance for the equipment. Aren't we going to sit on the wax?

"I understand.

" Yang Ming was instructed, calmed down and said, "I'm afraid of bad rumors."

Su Cheng thought about it and said, "The Spring Festival is only one month away. Well, you can reply to the supplier first, and wait until next week, we will make dividends in advance. Yang Ming, let the finance department prepare cash.

"Cash? That's..." Yang Ming was shocked. Halfway through, he lowered his voice and said, "That's hundreds of millions of yuan."

"It's just more to have an effect." The leader of Su City said, "In terms of security, there is always a way to solve it."

Dahua's dividend system gives generous rewards to employees with "special contributions". Its nature is similar to equity incentives, but it is mainly for non-management, and the amount is calculated according to the group's profit in the previous year. As long as the company's profit exceeds that of the hospital, it will pay dividends, and the amount is about the excess of Wei. Based on the income of Dahua Industrial Group in 1992, this money is not only hundreds of millions of yuan, but also hundreds of millions of yuan, far more than the payment applied by suppliers.

Zhang Chao was the first to understand and said happily, "Let them see if we have money. I will reply to them immediately and invite them to our Spring Festival Gala.
