He was a 'barefoot veteran' and a chopper

With a cheaper price to buy a blender, in an hour, the machine could " handle " 2-3 quintals of duckweed or vegetables, grass. Its author, Nguyen Nhu Linh is a " barefoot engineer" .

The sunken fields in Thuy Thanh (Thai Thuy-Thai Binh) have smeared people's faces. A young man still hung on the lagoon with heavy burdens. He hurriedly took it back, rushed to the yard and chopped, chopped, chopped . in the " torture " sound of the pigs calling for food because of the meal . It was 1999, the days were extremely strenuous. by Nguyen Nhu Linh.

From information soldier to " barefoot engineer "

" Because my mother is poor, so I have to chop, cut potatoes " - the verse of the knife seems to imply the fear of hashing extremely itchy, itchy to the skin of the hand . That's what it means thinking " if there is a hash machine " keeps haunting him.

" Capital " to Focus on just a little knowledge of machinery and electronics when I was an information soldier in Military Zone 3 and then "supplemented" from workshops that train " garden " scale in the commune behind when he was demobilized in 1986. Linh began to explore the model of hashing machine from having to see machines . rubbing rice in the town.

Master the principles, go find materials. Motor from " landfill " air conditioners is not missing. For years, Linh kept on himself, sketching all kinds of things, but the results were still not in place. The original machine was as big as a milling and blasting machine, but it was crushed like . powder. There is a boat, so it flies like a thresher. Until you find a " door " with a shield, the " technology " is minutely perfect. Bèo came out evenly, the small wings were the same as the needy knife of the village women. Accomplished! Linh jumped around and bragged throughout the village.

When the machine was finished, it was his best friend in his hometown with Linh who was also in a state of " husband and wife " Love you, Ling immediately gave you the first machine. Then he tinkered to make a few more to sell to the people in the village, his stomach said: " probe the market?". But wait forever but the market still has no signal. The relatives are very " happy " the hash machine, but they have not dared to buy much because it is easy to believe the machine of a gardener, not qualified, not labeled.

Another part made the hash machine unable to make a good sound because many households in the village bought the machine, they hid it, feared it would be borrowed and taken away.

From " barefoot engineers " into . business owners

Only when the hash machine " falls " to a district leader. This comrade visited Linh's civilian electrical repair facility and was completely convinced by the products of the barefoot engineer. He suggested Linh should register the copyright and quality standards of hash machine, water pump and establish a business, expand production scale to turn products on goods.

The procedures for registration of quality standards are supported by the Department of Science and Technology (Science and Technology) of Thai Binh province. The district also supports more than VND 80 million to Linh register to research and develop his products into a scientific topic. Along with that, the government created conditions for him to rent premises outside the city, to open private enterprises.

In February 2004, a machine manufacturing enterprise called Thien Thuan was born in Thuy Thanh commune, right next to the rice field, just over 15km from Thai Binh city. Although the initial scale was small, the company also sold hundreds of water pumps and duck milling machines each month, attracting more than 30 local workers, ensuring income for workers from 700 thousand to one million VND. What is special is that Linh not only receives middle-level young people in the field of electrical engineering but also " fetches " both ordinary workers and organizes them to learn and do it, turning the machine-building assembly into one effective vocational training center.

Currently, Linh's water pumps and hash machines have a strong brand. Particularly, the hashing machine was displayed at the Thai Binh Small and Medium Enterprises Congress and will continue to be displayed and introduced at the " Friends of Farmers " fair which will be held in Thai Binh city in October.

Mr. Nguyen Van Lich, Deputy Director of Thai Binh Department of Science and Technology highly appreciated the self-made products of Nguyen Nhu Linh. The precious thing is that this farmer engineer refuses to stop at processing and making products from old machines, but now he has been able to make water pumps, hashing machines with 100% localization from the factory. Small machine in his poor village.

The Chairman of Thai Thuy district likened Nguyen Nhu Linh to Nguyen Duc Tam, Nguyen Van Dung or Nguyen Cam Luy . of farmers in the South. But Linh: " Making the machine first to save yourself, my hometowns support the hand and the leg. Open the company, let the younger brothers find a job, to avoid having to beg for real . ". He whispered, his hands still wrapped in a motor, working like every other worker .
