Shen Mingzhu took over the conversation, "Once this batch of assembly lines is assembled, employees will no longer need to work long hours, and can get off work a full eight hours a day and leave on time."

"This batch? Mr. Shen, for a production line like this, how many do you plan to install?"

Shen Mingzhu did not answer, but looked at the person in charge of the laboratory nearby, "At this stage, how many production lines can be set up at most?"

The other party replied: "For the time being, we can set up five complete production lines, and more will have to wait a month."

“How long will it take to install all five production lines?”

"Transportation, installation and commissioning will take at least three days."

Shen Mingzhu nodded, "Then install five first. I'll be waiting for them. Please hurry up and make arrangements."

"no problem."

It was already half past ten.

After finishing their business, Shen Mingzhu, Xia Wushuang, and two engineers from the laboratory went to the restaurant booked by Meng Xiaoyang to have dinner and discuss the follow-up matters of setting up the production line.

After dinner, Meng Xiaoyang drove the two engineers home.

Shen Mingzhu and Xia Wushuang stayed in a nearby hotel.

"With five production lines, the daily output is 6,750 boxes, which means 270,000 boxes in 40 days. With the workers working overtime, it is not impossible to produce 350,000 boxes of mooncakes before the Mid-Autumn Festival."

In the elevator going up to the hotel room, Xia Wushuang counted on his fingers while settling accounts with Shen Mingzhu.

Shen Mingzhu smiled and shook her head. "Your idea is too idealistic. The production line cannot be put into production immediately after it is assembled. The employees still need to be trained in operation. At most, the production time of this batch of production lines can reach 35 days at most."

"Ah, then we won't be able to fulfill the order quantity?"

Seeing Shen Mingzhu's expression of smiling but not saying anything, Xia Wushuang became excited again, "Boss Shen, do you have a solution?"

Shen Mingzhu kept it a secret, "The secret cannot be revealed."

…

"What are these new devices used for? The factory hasn't developed any new products recently?"

Seeing the workers busy moving various machines and kits from the truck to the empty workshop, employees from the entire factory stopped to watch curiously.

"I heard that this is a newly added mooncake production line. In the future, we won't need to hire workers to make mooncakes. It will be all automated."

"I heard that a production line can produce at least 13,500 mooncakes a day, and only two operators are needed to supervise it. How much labor cost can this save?"

"Hiss, if that's the case, won't all those mooncake makers be laid off?"

The production capacity of the new production line amazed the employees.

The food factory employs 20 mooncake workers in a group. They can produce 3,000 mooncakes working twelve hours a day.

It takes ninety people to produce 13,500 mooncakes, but such a fully automated production line only requires two workers.

The difference is too huge.

…

"Boss Du, the food factory got a new batch of production equipment today. They say it's a fully automated mooncake production line. We won't need to hire temporary workers to make mooncakes in the future."

As soon as he received the news, Mai Qiu called Du Juan.

The entrepreneurial team led by Du Juan and Shen Chaobei arrived safely in Australia last night.

When they received Mai Qiu's call, they were visiting Fuwang's headquarters factory under the guidance of Fuwang's reception representative.

After dealing with Mai Qiu's report in a few words, Du Juan returned to Shen Chaobei.

Noticing that she was in a bad mood, Shen Chaobei couldn't help but show concern.

Looking at the orderly production line scene, Du Juan felt indescribably complicated.

Half an hour ago, she was still amazed by Fuwang's advanced and standardized production lines. She thought the trip was worthwhile and was ambitiously planning to bring these advanced production technologies back to China to broaden the eyes of her peers.

Unexpectedly, Shen Mingzhu had already taken action.

"I just realized that I had misjudged Mingzhu."

Hearing her say this, Shen Chaobei couldn't help but get nervous, "What's wrong with my little sister?"

Du Juan told him about Shen Mingzhu's introduction of a fully automated production line. "I used to think she was backward, stuck in the old ways, and didn't know how to adapt. It turns out I didn't understand her. She's already ahead of us."

Shen Chaobei held her hand and asked, "Do you regret leaving the food factory?"

"Of course not."

Du Juan's eyes revealed a resolute look of not admitting defeat. "Since Mingzhu is ahead of us, we should catch up. Temporary lag does not mean that we will lag behind forever. I have great confidence in Fuwang's products."

Shen Chaobei was stunned.

The wife in front of him gave him a complex feeling of being both familiar and unfamiliar.

"Juan, you seem to be becoming more and more like my little sister."

Du Juan was silent for a moment and then said, "I hope I can be the second one."

…

At 9 o'clock in the morning, Shen Mingzhu led the management team to gather in the newly established mooncake production workshop.

All five production lines have been installed and debugged, and fifteen workshop operators who have been trained and qualified are ready to go.

The workshop entrance and windows were crowded with employees watching the fun.

Today is the day when the mooncake production line is officially put into production.

At Shen Mingzhu's command, fifteen operators went to their respective posts.

As the production line was turned on and materials were put in, light yellow mooncake embryos appeared on the conveyor belt one after another. After being uniformly molded, they were sent into the oven for the first baking.

The entire process is fully mechanized and automated, and the operator only needs to stand in front of the production line and watch.

This scene not only opened the eyes of the managers who followed Shen Mingzhu to visit the production process, but also stunned the employees who were watching outside the workshop.

When we first heard that the factory was installing an automated production line and that manual labor would no longer be needed for production, everyone was skeptical.

Machines have no brains, so how can they be as flexible as humans and do whatever they are told to do?

But what you hear is not as good as what you see.

Seeing with their own eyes these huge and complex lumps of stainless steel being used to produce 500 mooncake bases in a very short period of time, the perceptions of those present were completely overturned.

Machines can really replace humans in doing things, and they can do it quickly and beautifully.

As the first batch of mooncakes finished their first baking and were transferred out of the oven and placed on a cooling table, the managers were amazed.

"Hiss, this color is very beautiful."

"The pass rate is much higher than that of manual work. Almost none of this batch of mooncakes are burnt."

Shen Mingzhu explained: "The ovens in this production line use constant temperature control. The temperature of the entire oven is not only balanced, but also accurate to one decimal place, which basically eliminates the problem of mooncakes being damaged due to uneven heating in traditional ovens."
