Monster Factory

Group’s sales would plummet by a third.

That was a third of international sales, especially for weak developing countries, their heavy industry was completely filled to the brim with cheap Made In China products.

Asking them was completely out of the question, Li Huaxing even anxiously held 3 technical meetings in a row, yet all those skilled researchers ended up suffering from high blood pressure, and still weren’t able to find a feasible solution.

Under high anxiety, Li Huaxing suddenly remembered of a small time mechanical factory at Dragon Creek Beach.

Recalling the small time factory at Dragon Creek Beach, was completely due to a report submitted by his yacht pilot.

Tiancheng Mining Corporation ordered 5 trucks in one go, and also a bunch of other related mining equipment, so naturally Li Huaxing was happy.
When he heard that Tiancheng Mining Corporation’s jewel Xia Muqing wanted to go sea fishing, Li Huaxing very willingly lent her his private yacht and pilot.

This time, when going out to sea, Xia Muqing was completely out of luck.
Right when the yacht pilot took her out for a spin, as soon as they neared the Dragon Creek Beach, the yacht’s propellers both got wasted.

When Li Huaxing heard the news, he didn’t make a fuss about it.
It was only a couple tens of thousand yuan, and it was his pilot that made the mess to begin with.

So where was the need for Li Huaxing to make a fuss about it?

But there was another small matter that peaked his interest.

The pilot told him that he followed the GPS to a nearby shipyard, for repairs.
But the shipyard closed a long time ago, and was now owned by someone who was using it as a mechanical manufacturing factory.

If it was mechanical manufacturing, than in all of Zhongyun, who would compare to him Li Huaxing?

But this mechanical manufacturing factory, taught him a massive lesson with actual skills.

The pilot told him that this factory’s owner probably resented the yacht for taking so much space, plus he also knew Xia Muqing, so he immediately made two new aluminum alloy propellers and swapped them on.

Wanting to lathe out a pair of 7 fan, high curvature propeller in a short period of time, was definitely impossible for Huaxing Heavy Industry.

Of course, if Huaxing Heavy Industry wanted to make it, then that was as simple as buying some manufacturing equipment.

When Li Huaxing heard this, apart from admiration and curiosity, there wasn’t much else.
Who knew what kind of skills that factory was hiding, maybe it even had some master level worker overseeing everything.

As for those amateur shipyard workers, what DMG CNC center, what precision was better than the original, Li Huaxing almost fell to the floor laughing.

It wasn’t that Huaxing Heavy Industry didn’t have any DMG CNC centers.
Whether or not it could mill out propellers, wouldn’t Li Huaxing know the answer to that question?

If it was the foreign full version, without any castration, then sure.

But Li Huaxing felt the chance of that happening was just too damn small, the likelihood of it being handmade was even higher.

After all, the first propeller driven boat was completed in 1836, back then there was no such thing as CNC center, vertical computer guided mills, it was all done by hand.

The precision level of handmade products, especially when it was rushed, had no way of reaching the needed precision standards.

Li Huaxing, as someone who chases after precision levels endlessly, immediately had someone order a pair of original propellers.

Yesterday the propellers just arrived from their manufacturer.
Li Huaxing took the returning yacht, immediately had it dry docked, and swapped out the propellers.

The two ‘workshop’ level propeller were also brought back by someone.
Because Li Huaxing felt interested, he wanted to see what kind of power that small time factory had, that they could even create the two of them in less than half a day.

As a result, when the two garbage tier propellers were placed in front of him, Li Huaxing almost had the urge to trash the cup in his hand that was worth more than tens of thousands.

Holy shit what kind of workshop level work was this?

This is fking clearly world grade work alright?

Micrometer ruler, spiral micrometer, roundness measuring instrument, angle measuring instrument, and every other inspection technique were all used by Li Huaxing at least once.

When the final result came out, it had Li Huaxing break out cursing, cursing those two propellers from the original manufacturer as garbage, as trash, as useless pieces of shit.

He dejectedly had the workers once more install those two propellers back on, then Li Huaxing suddenly jumped out of his chair when a thought popped out.

Hell yes!

Weren’t the difficult problems faced by Huaxing Heavy Industry in the mechanical processing area?

They definitely had some special processing technique, and some beyond god like master workers overseeing everything.

The next day, Li Huaxing had his driver bring him to the small time factory at Dragon Creek Beach, to pay the owner there a visit.
