Yuan Chuanwei: a One-Man Production Line

Yuan Chuanwei: a One-Man Production Line

Yuan Chuanwei is in charge of production in a precision equipment company located in Suzhou, Jiangsu province. On January 26, while staying in his hometown of Yancheng for the Spring Festival, Yuan received an urgent order from Wuhan for the parts of hydrogen peroxide sterilization equipment. He was told that due to the serious epidemic, Hubei's hospitals desperately needed hydrogen peroxide disinfectors.

Yuan immediately contacted relevant authorities and completed the procedures for resuming production. Then he found he was the only worker at the factory. Others had all returned home for family reunion and were currently required to quarantine at home, which meant they could not return to work. 

From the night of January 27 on, Yuan lived and worked non-stop in the workshop, only taking a nap on the sofa when tired. Normally it would take five employees to complete 200 sets in 15 days, but Yuan alone fulfilled the order in 16 days. The parts he produced were soon assembled into hydrogen peroxide sterilization equipment by his partner and sent to the frontline of Hubei. Single-handedly, Yuan ran the whole production line all by himself.

As more factories successively resumed production and the shortage of materials was solved, Yuan received more orders. "The work is tiring, but the pain is way better than that of the epidemic," he said.

袁传伟：一个人扛起整条生产线

袁传伟，江苏省苏州市一家精密器械有限公司生产负责人。2020年1月26日，在老家江苏盐城过春节的他，接到了一份为武汉生产消毒设备零部件的紧急订单。合作伙伴告诉他，由于疫情严重，湖北急需过氧化氢消毒器为医院消毒。

1月27日，袁传伟紧急联系相关部门办理复工手续，然而却面临着没有工人的问题，很多回家过年的工人在老家自我隔离，不被允许外出。当晚，他开始24小时吃住在工厂，一天只休息两个小时。通常情况下，做完这一批200套的订单，需要5名员工协同合作15天，而袁传伟一个人用了16天时间完成了这批订单。他生产的零部件，经由合作伙伴组装成过氧化氢消毒器成品，发往湖北抗疫一线，可以说，袁传伟凭借一己之力扛起了整条生产线。

随着工厂陆续复工，材料短缺问题得到解决，袁传伟接手了更多零部件生产任务，他说：“辛苦总比疫情夺去人的生命要好。”
