It almost completely prevents explosion accidents. With them, the pressure cooker will never get out of control and explode."
Chief Engineer Wu held the pot lid, pointed at the several mechanisms on it, and shouted excitedly to Director Sun.
"Great! That's great. With this pressure cooker as our flagship product, our factory can be completely revitalized.
We no longer have to worry about not having enough orders or not having a market for our products.”
Director Sun was also as happy as a child, and immediately shook Lin Huowang's hand excitedly, and said gratefully: "Comrade Lin Huowang, thank you! Thank you so much. You really brought a goose that lays golden eggs to our factory. On behalf of more than 5,000 workers of Jilin General Machinery Factory, I thank you for saving the factory!
To be honest, our factory's previous products are all outdated.
Apart from some unified purchasing and sales orders, it is basically difficult to get other orders.
In recent years, we have been relying on the financial support from the provincial government to barely support the workers' wages and welfare benefits.
This year, the provincial government also issued a final ultimatum to our factory: if we still cannot find a way to be self-sufficient, we will have to consider closing or merging our factory.”
At this point, Director Sun said with some embarrassment: "Our factory is really in trouble! So I'm very... very sorry that I didn't even dare to treat you to a good meal.
But now, with this pressure cooker that won’t explode, our factory is saved.
I will soon instruct the canteen to use up all the meat in the warehouse so that more than 5,000 workers can have a meat meal today.
Comrade Lin Huowang, you should also stay and enjoy the food at our Jilin General Machinery Factory.
It was said before that our cafeteria was notoriously bad, but that was because the chef didn’t dare to use enough oil or meat, so of course it didn’t taste good.
In fact, the chefs in our factory are very good! Alas! It’s just that the budget for the canteen is limited…”
After feeling ashamed for a while, Director Sun made a solemn promise to Lin Huowang: "Comrade Lin Huowang, don't worry. With the design of this pressure cooker, our factory will really make a lot of money this time.
We will take care of all the parts and components that Baishan County needs. There is no problem at all."
"Thank you very much, Director Sun. I have another suggestion for you. You can send these two sample pressure cookers to the business department in Beijing right now and ask them to help contact foreign merchants who are interested in and need them.
The other one will be sent to the National Supply and Marketing Cooperatives for thorough testing and use.
As long as these two sales channels are opened up, you can make as many pressure cookers as you want from our Ji Province General Machinery Factory, even if you make them until they smoke, and they will still be in short supply."
Having achieved the purpose of this trip, Lin Huowang smiled and made another request of his own: "In addition, Director Sun, I have another unwelcome request. I hope that after our Ji Province General Machinery Factory's production capacity increases, it can donate 1,000 pressure cookers to our soldiers guarding the outposts in high-altitude areas."
"Hmm? Donating pressure cookers to these border outposts is no problem. But, Comrade Lin Huowang, is there any explanation for this?"
Director Sun didn't quite understand why these border outposts were chosen for donation.
But Chief Engineer Wu at the side immediately understood and explained to Director Sun: "Director, it is like this. The frontier outposts that Comrade Lin Huowang mentioned are all in high-altitude areas, such as the southern Tibet region and those outposts in the Himalayas, which are generally more than 4,000 to 5,000 meters above sea level.
In these outposts, the air pressure is low due to the high altitude. If you use an ordinary pot to cook food, the boiling point of water will not reach 100 degrees. In some places, it is even only 70 or 80 degrees.
With such water temperature, rice cannot be cooked at all. Soldiers there often have to eat half-cooked rice, and various vegetables and meat are also difficult to cook thoroughly.
But if we have a pressure cooker like this one, the soldiers’ food problem can be completely solved.
Pressure cookers not only speed up the cooking of food, but more importantly, no matter how high the altitude is, the atmospheric pressure will not affect the air pressure inside the pot.
Therefore, it is easy to heat the water in the pot to over 130 degrees, whether it is cooking meat or rice, it is easy. "
"I see! We must donate. One thousand pressure cookers are too few. If we want to donate, we should donate 5,000 pressure cookers.
According to the cost we just calculated, the material cost of a pressure cooker is less than ten yuan at most.
Five thousand pressure cookers only cost 50,000 yuan. For our soldiers to have a bite of hot rice, this little money is nothing. If we export more pressure cookers, we can earn it back immediately. "
At this moment, Director Sun, who was jokingly called the most stingy person by almost all the leaders of large factories in Jilin Province, was really generous beyond description.
Yes!
As the director of a factory, if he had not been stingy, the Jilin General Machinery Factory would have collapsed long ago.
But once the factory found a way out, he was not stingy at all when it came to spending money, and was more generous than anyone else.
"Great! Director Sun, on behalf of the thousands of soldiers at the border posts, I would like to thank you for your donated pressure cookers."
Lin Huowang also shook hands with Director Sun with great gratitude. In his previous life, when he was in the special training camp, Lin Huowang had heard about this issue from some comrades who came from the border outposts.
Therefore, most of the first batch of stable pressure cookers produced by his small electronics factory were donated by him to border outposts.
This time, he also wanted to give it a try to see if Director Sun was willing to donate.
