Xie Changning didn't have them make parts for the printer. Instead, she gave them a different assignment.
But her proposal was immediately rejected.
"We want to make the printer parts!"
"Right!"
"It's the only way to show how seriously we're taking this and to see the real difference in our skills!"
Xie Changning was speechless. Since more than half of them voted for it, the assignment was changed to making printer parts.
I had to admit, their enthusiasm was incredible. While they were still waiting for news from the steel mill, the competition within Xie Changning's research group had already concluded.
Three people were selected for each of the various roles: lathe operator, miller, planer, grinder, fitter, and others.
The more critical roles of process planner and technician were personally selected by Xie Changning, who appointed several workshop directors.
