next day,
Ding.
Ding.
Ding.
Ding.
“Let’s eat and eat.”
Someone rang the lunch bell.
“Is it lunchtime already?”
I haven’t been able to do anything all morning, but time has passed.
After thinking all night last night, I couldn’t decide whether or not to meet Saraswati Sinha.
“I must have aroused the curiosity of her…”
It seemed that she had heard me once through Maitra, and investigated my dealings
If it weren’t for that, would such a person even leave a phone number saying that she would see me?
“Boss, enjoy your meal.”
“Ah, yes. Eat a lot and work hard.”
“thank you.”
An employee passing by greeted me.
He told me to eat a lot and cheer up.
In this era, it was a virtue to eat a lot.
Abandoned factory… No, Nayara Chemical has become a factory in its own way.
Beside this there is also a Rayon Plant that is already operational and a fertilizer plant that is under construction in this factory surrounding the plot by Nayara Construction my 3rd Company.
Only skilled technicians were selected and selected as employees, and many technicians from chemistry or physics departments were also selected.
In all, there are close to 200 people.
In Nayara Construction the number is a bit higher; it’s 500 people.
The restaurant was built with a frame made of steel beams and stacked with cement blocks.
It would have been better if it was made by stacking containers with insulation inserted, but there were no containers yet.
“! No, boss! Where have you been? I’ve been looking for you all morning.”
“Oh, Abir ! What’s going on ? No phone?”
Abir was waiting in front of the restaurant.
It was nice to see his face after a long time.
“Ugh, why didn’t you pay for the restaurant lady’s meal vouchers while paying the employees’ salaries? He called me directly.”
“Did I make that mistake? The lady also really… says something.”
“It must have been difficult to tell you. It seemed that he suffered alone. I paid 1 lakh₹ with bank interest.”
“Haha, well done. After all, you are my friend.”
It was a very good thing to leave Abir as the accountant.
If I didn’t, I would have become an evil dealer.
“Do you know how the company works? Don’t you see the settlement report I send every week?”
“Why am I seeing that? do you see it?”
Counting money takes more time than you think.
You have to use your heart to analyze it.
I’d rather work one more minute or sleep one more minute than spend my time there.
I should focus on making money, not counting money.
“You have to figure out whether it’s a deficit or a surplus, and what your main expenses are. You are the boss.”
“Can there be a deficit? Isn’t our business going very well? A lot of dollars and pounds are coming in from Cairo.”
If it was in the red,Abir would have jumped up and down.
What I care about these days is investing in the right place.
“CFO Abir! I knew it!”
Pak!
“mind! What are you doing! It hurts, bitch.”
Abir has been hitting headbutts all of a sudden.
“Business is going well. very! very! It’s ridiculously good. But, your spending is even more outrageous!! look! Look! Look at the money you spent a month!”
The guy unfolded the ledger.
“Eh? Is the balance of $30,000 all there is?”
It was absurd.
The money for Cairo exports continues to be deposited, and I am earning 100,000 dollars a week by supplying catalysts to ONGC.
What is the balance like?
“Look at the money you spent.
Let’s say that’s the salary of the employees in the repair cost of the factory.
Can an alternative factory dormitory be a hotel?
Why build a flush toilet in the bathroom?
Yeah, I’ll admit that pooping is important.
What is this though?
The factory site is so large, why buy the surrounding land?
Are you investing in real estate?
Yes, let’s assume that the price of land in this village will rise someday.
By the way, stainless steel piping?
Bentonite?
calcium carbonate?
zeolite?
Ammonium butyral?
Why buy something like this!!!
Why do you import things like this with the precious barter rights you received from exporting fabrics!”
Damn, I’m here to ask you for using the barter ticket.
In fact, I’m not even going to follow it.
If I can afford it, I want to sell the barter ticket at a premium.
But what can I do?
Plants work only when there are raw and subsidiary materials.
“calm down. Calm. It’s because you can’t spin synthetic fibers just because you have naphtha.”
“naphtha? What is it?”
“Naphtha!”
“Naphtha? Was this a naphtha factory?”
At this time, naptha was called naphtha.
It can be called naptha in English pronunciation, but naphtha in German pronunciation can be said to be the origin.
Chemical technology was historically strong in Germany, Well we all know why it’s… Because of a Painter.
“Yes, polyester and nylon raw materials will be extracted from this plant. Then you’ll be spinning a thread from that material. You are picking fabrics at the factory. By the way, didn’t I tell you this?”
“Bitch tell me! Both you and the president Raj kept their mouths shut, saying that work here is confidential.”
“Hey, our company’s security is great, isn’t it? To think that even the head of the head office, the sole manager of the head office, was not aware of it.”
Fuck!
“Wanna die!”
Abir must have been embarrassed, so he went head-to-head.
If they had known that they had imported raw materials for localization of yarn, they would not have made such a fuss.
“Stop being annoyed, I’ll show you. let’s go.”
“Ugh. Aren’t you going to let this go?”
“If not at this time, when will you enjoy the luxury of being briefed by the president?”
I put him under my armpit and went to the back of the factory.
The front of the plant was still under construction, but the rear plant was able to operate normally.
It was the highest security area of Nayara Chemical.
***
Iron lump.
I opened the security iron door and entered.
Only those with the key can enter.
“Chief Raj!”
“Chief, have you finished lunch already?”
“I want to go out to eat after work. It’s been a while since this manager came down.”
Today, President Raj postponed lunch and was working.
If you go 10 minutes before lunchtime ends, you can eat right away without standing in line, so you work until then.
Few people work as passionately as President Raj.
Of course, it is directly related to the growth of Pioneer Nylon, his 2nd Company that’s a JV between Nayara Chemical and his Pioneer Industries, so there will be a taste of hard work.
Well, Yes we guys already formalize our relationship, holding structure and ownership relationship, because in future we don’t want our relationship to break for mere arguments.
“Ah, Abir has come down.”
“No, what is this?”
Abir’s eyes widened.
It was a natural reaction.
Compared to the crappy front of the factory, the back of the factory had dazzling polymerization reactors standing tall.
“It is a polymerization furnace for synthetic fibers.President Rohit called it the microphone tower.”
To be honest, I didn’t know how to set up a polymerization furnace so quickly.
Since there were numerous large and small polymerization reactor parts in the factory warehouse, it was only necessary to weld according to the process flow chart.
Perhaps the original concept of the factory was a refinery and a polymerization reactor complex plant that got dropped because of WW2.
“Mike Tower… Huh? Stand… Could this be a pellet?”
Abir , who looked around, was surprised once more.
Because rice grain-shaped pellets were pouring down on one side.
Instead of directly spinning yarn in a polymerization furnace, in a polymerization furnace, small pellets of nylon or polyester are first made, melted, and threaded through a machine called a spinning machine.
The important thing is that the lumps of raw materials made in this polymerization furnace are not low-grade flakes, but the highest quality rice grain-shaped pellets.
Abir, who also worked in the textile industry, was surprised to see the piles of pellets.
“Isn’t it pretty? It is polyester pellets. All you have to do is take it to the factory and spin the thread.”
“Could we have localized polyester?”
“President Rohit, not us, succeeded in localizing it. President Rohit personally designed all the plants here and set the process conditions. He is indeed the best chemical engineer in India.”
The man, who had been moved to tears just a few days ago, now spoke calmly.
“Chemical Engineering? Rohit, are not you from the Department of Business Administration.”
“I have always been interested in chemistry. Didn’t you know?”
I smirked and shrugged.
“Is this something you could do if you are interested in it?”
“Isn’t it true that I’m a bit of a genius?”
“no it’s not. I… don’t want to talk.”
Contrary to expectations, Abir’s reaction was quite calm.
Rohit, it’s possible if it’s you, what’s this feeling?
It was a way to acknowledge that I am a genius.
“Ah, Mr. Raj. Yesterday afternoon, ONGC opened the remaining naphtha valve. It opens the valve on our side as well.”
“Is that so? Are you finally mass-producing polyester?”
“Don’t worry about pulling Rayon. I tried it several times with Unit 2.”
There are several polymerization furnaces in the backyard, the larger Unit 1 is assigned to polyester and the smaller Unit 2 is allocated to Rayon, and yes I have to send samples back to Omer if he needs nylon or polyester or a tri-bend.
It was a natural assignment as the demand for polyester would increase over time.
After I successfully supplied to the Indian Army and Minister of Home Affairs.
“Rohit, how much yarn does it pour when mass-producing?”
Abir asked with half expectation and half worry.
“Well, if you look at it annually, it seems like 20,000 tons of polyester and 20,000 tons of nylon will come out? 8,000 tons of plastic to be used as other coatings will come out and 20,000 tons of Rayon after completion of fertilizer plant. I think 60,000 tons of Nitrogen based fertilizers.”
“it’s crazy? What materials are pulled out by tens of thousands of tons? How are you going to sell that much?”
“Ah, boss. Worried about not being able to sell? Later on, they would make a fuss over why they could only pick this one.”
I called Abir the Boss and made fun of him.
I can assure you that after 2-3 years, Abir will be begging for an increase in production of all things.
“Is this a joke? 20,000 tons of nylon is also a huge amount, but what if you pull out 20,000 tons of polyester, 20,000 tons of Rayon! And fertilizers, do you have sales channel don’t you know which direction the country is moving”
Abir’s voice grew louder and louder.
“Don’t worry. It will sell so well that we can’t sell it because we don’t have our fabric. We will sweep the market not only in MENA, but all over the world.”
“Swept the world?”
“We can pull out all the ingredients we need. How would you feel if you used water-repellent coated nylon as the outer shell and polyester as the inner? Waterproof, windproof, breathable, washable, dry, etc. all the quality will overwhelm other fabrics?”
“… You mean the fabric has a double structure? Is that possible?”
“Of course it is possible.”
“Are you… really a genius…?”
“maybe.”
Sambok was speechless at my answer.
Really, the fabric is the product of a genius idea.
In the 1990s, under the name Polytech, it dominated sportswear around the world.
The important thing is that not only sportswear but also Marine crops of many countries’ uniforms were made with polytech fabric.
What I like more is that the company that first made the fabric went bankrupt in the 2000s after overextending its business.
In other words, even if I preoccupy the technology, the butterfly effect will not be very large.
It is at a level that is sufficiently controllable.
“Chief Raj, please take care of me here for a while. I will go to Calcutta l for a while.”
“You want me to take over here?”
“Please bear with it for about a week. I should hand over the pellets and Rayon I have produced so far to Your Father, spin polyester, make nylon fabrics by color, and send them to Cairo Of course, with the double fabric, we also penetrated the uniform market.”
“A uniform?”
“Yes, either the Indian Army or Ministry of Home Affairs.”
“!!!!”
My words took both of them by surprise.
Doesn’t it make sense to think about it?
” MHA and IA!
Rohit, you are truly a genius!”
“Why do you keep talking about being a genius?”
“This time it’s for real. you are a genius! A genius in business.”
“Stop it and load the truck. Let’s go up to Calcutta.”
“Let’s go up!!!”
Abir, who had come down with a grumpy expression at first, jumped up and said he felt good.
President Rohit also happily loaded polyester and nylon pellets onto the truck.
The pellets in my mind were already turning into dazzling polytech fabrics and boarding export ships.
“Put on your seat belt.”
“Step on it! Rohit!”
“Get your truck license. If you don’t win, I’ll fire the manager.”
“Oh, be scared!”
“I’m not kidding.”
“Ah, yes.
president.
We joked and went up to Calcutta.
I remembered that I had skipped lunch on the way, so I bought food at a dhaba.
***
Pioneer Rayon.
“Old Man!!”
“Glory!!”
“Oh, where have you been?”
Since we arrived in the evening, I was about to take off the pellets and get some rice, but old man was not there.
“Oh, who is this? It’s not the boss.”
“Oh, madam. Where are you, old man? I have something to ask of you.”
“Rohit, this is not the time to talk about work. Come on, let’s go to the factory. Well it’s like..”
“factory? What happened?”
“Every time it happens. Thug attacked the factory and Miss Roy and the staff were captured. It’s crazy. Come on. Hurry!”
“Yes? Are our employees being held?”
What kind of nonsense are you talking about?
I looked at Abir, but he didn’t know why either.
“Let’s go, Rohit.”
“okay!”
I rushed to the factory without measuring before and after.
