"Alas, I'm old, I'm too tired, this thing is really not as good as it used to be......" Zheng Yucheng sat on the turret and complained as the tank drove to an abandoned factory on the outskirts of the base.

Xie Kai, who felt a sour feeling in the tank for the first time, didn't want to move when he lay on the turret.

From the garrison regiment to the base, it was not too far.

Sitting in 59, the old guy Zheng Yucheng was driving at maximum speed, and the shock absorption effect was not good, and the smell of various engine oil and diesel after heating up made Xie Kai get out of the tank and vomit wildly on the turret.

Originally, I thought that after being an artillery commander, why would I have to turn the turret to find a target to aim, right?

When the tank starts, the stomach turns upside down, where is the heart to do anything else?

What's more, Zheng Yucheng's skills are not good, the road that was originally quite smooth made this old guy drive crookedly, constantly maneuvering and turning, braking, raiding or something, so that Xie Kai had already vomited once inside.

"Uncomfortable, aren't you? You've only been a little longer? Nearly 10,000 of these things have been produced in China, and tank crews are often trained, and they are in this state every day. You have the ability to change, do you think, isn't it appropriate not to do something?" Zheng Yucheng looked at Xie Kai, who was retching on the turret with a pale face, and asked solemnly, not caring about the smell in the air.

"Lao Zheng, did you do it on purpose?" Xie Kai didn't call Director Zheng at this time.

A look of anger.

The old guy is so bad, big bad!

"It's not intentional. When fighting, operations are more frequent than this, and the environment in the tank is worse than that. Especially after the cannon is fired, the smell of gunpowder inside is difficult to dissipate, and it will even smoke so much that people's eyes can't open it......" Zheng Yucheng is still serious.

Xie Kai looked at Zheng Yucheng with hatred on his face, and he didn't speak.

But in my heart, I didn't think much of his words, the 99 tank is good, and after 30 years, the country spends hundreds of billions of dollars a year on its military, and it can't be equipped much.

Tens of thousands of 59 tanks for 99 tanks will bankrupt the military.

Otherwise, since the M1 was equipped with troops in the eighties, the US imperialists have only upgraded tanks and have not come up with new equipment?

"You have talent in this area, why waste it? We don't expect anything else, even if it is just to make the environment inside a little better, and the conditions inside the tank are higher, it will improve the combat effectiveness a lot! Although the equipment is important, the personnel who operate it are even more important. ”

Zheng Yucheng's cognition impressed Xie Kai.

No matter how advanced the weapons and equipment are, no one will operate them, and they will all be in vain.

Even if it's a drone, doesn't it have to rely on the keyboard pilots in the command center to control it in order to fly and perform tasks?

"I don't have any talent!Director Zheng, don't lift me up...... The task of students is to go to school seriously, work hard to get into the university, and learn more knowledge to serve the motherland......" Xie Kai said with a serious face.

"Smack!" Zheng Yucheng slapped the tank turret hard, looking at Xie Kai with an angry expression, "Don't give Lao Tzu nonsense! Since you were in junior high school, you have spent more time skipping school than you are in the classroom, thinking that Lao Tzu doesn't know?"

Xie Kai's words really angered Zheng Yucheng.

"Tell me about you, you can be regarded as a child of the base, you grew up in the base, and the whole base is also your home, you bear thing, why are you so emotionless to this family?" Although Zheng Yucheng was angry, he was more helpless. "To serve the country, with your ideological awareness, do something to benefit first, this is an act of serving the country?"

Xie Kai said that he was not angry when he said anything else.

As soon as he said this, he couldn't accept it, people like Xie Kai were a scourge to the base.

Once this kind of thinking infects others, everyone in the base thinks about themselves, then it is still a ball.

"I want to make my life better with my family, is it wrong? I don't ask for anything in return, who is willing to pay? My parents have dedicated their lives to educating me like this since I was a child, and I made that electromagnetic bomb a while ago, if I hadn't come to you myself, the military would have been shot if I hadn't come to you myself, and the military would have been interested in the project?" Xie Kai was also angry.

There are really not many selfish people in the base.

In the previous life, the follow-up development of the base was unable to fall into difficulties, and selfish people used their various means to either make the first pot of gold with the resources of the base and leave, or they were promoted.

The result is left with them.

"It's not that they weren't shot? Even if the military wasn't interested in the project, even if it couldn't be repaired in the end, they wouldn't be shot. Your parents will go into another project and use their wages to pay for the country's losses......" Zheng Yucheng said, shaking his head. "This is your father asking me to intercede privately, and he even gave me three thousand yuan!"

He kind of understood that the last time this kid was locked up in prison for a few days, it had too much impact on his character.

Zheng Yucheng didn't lie, especially when Zheng Yucheng said in front of him that his father gave him 3,000 yuan, which made Xie Kai open his mouth wide.

"Are you afraid that I will report you?" Xie Kai asked incredulously.

"Collect a fart, if Lao Tzu collects it, dare to say it? To be honest, Lao Tzu really wants to kill you, the whole base only has the finishing workshop to do the work, tens of thousands of people rely on this workshop to earn wages, but you blew up Lao Tzu...... Zheng Yucheng raised his eyebrows, his face was full of unhappiness. "But anyway, you're a kid of the base, unless you put the base in serious danger! If you don't fix it in the end, don't get shot, and your parents pay them for the rest of their lives, you don't want to get better!"

"Whoever is the enemy of the base, Lao Tzu will kill him!" Zheng Yucheng said through gritted teeth.

Seeing the old man's distorted expression, Xie Kai's heart was furious.

The old guy killed his own son with his own hands, and no one will doubt the credibility of this statement.

"You boys are the most naughty group since the establishment of the base, but no one has repaired you, because you could have a wider world and more room for movement...... But unfortunately, you are the future of 404, you are the children of the base, and the vast world that the children outside have, you have not had since you were a child, so all the talents in the entire base indulge you ......"

"It's not wrong to want to live a good life. Now that the country is engaged in economic construction, the technical performance of the military industry is not high, and it will definitely be eliminated! The bases are gone, do you think that the little friends you grew up with can live well at home because of the closure of the base? You live well alone, your family is good, and you can live a down-to-earth life?" Zheng Yucheng's words made Xie Kai also begin to question his own ideas.

Because he was too depressed, he was ready to fight for a better life for himself when he was reborn.

But it's better to live alone, okay?

Mao Zi, an old man in his forties, cried in front of his brother for his son's marriage room; a madman was shot for killing people for more than 100 yuan; Xiao Er was imprisoned for stealing because he couldn't continue to live in the factory in the most difficult years; and more children who stayed at the base to take over lived in a mess all day long......

"It's like eating at home, if there's no pot in the pot, how much can anyone have in their bowl? There are no projects in the base, and there is no opportunity for development, so who can live well? People like Sun Jiaming are absolutely not unique in the base, and there will definitely not be many! You kid, what's the difference between him and him? I know that the base can't pay my salary, and I have to ask for 100,000 ......."

Zheng Yucheng's attitude softened, but the last sentence made Xie Kai's heart like a knife.

If he hadn't been in his forties and had experienced a lot, he wouldn't have been touched by these words.

Living again, he knew what he was supposed to care about.

You have to live a good life, but the people around you can't be down, otherwise, you are people from two worlds.

"This tank is yours, and it will stop in this workshop in the future, do you like to do it or not! Walk back by yourself!" After finishing speaking, Zheng Yucheng took off the bicycle hanging behind the turret of the tank and rode back to the base.

Really leave Xie Kai here.

Let Xie Kai ask Qingtian speechlessly.

Zheng Yucheng's words really touched Xie Kai a lot.

In any case, the countless people in the base are fighting for it, and the idea of not talking about returns has taken root in his bones.

Now the problems faced by the base are also clear, if they do not change, they will only end up like the original trajectory, except for a small number of processing plants to other units supporting processing, a large number of units go bankrupt and go bankrupt.

Those who have skills and experience can still get a job, but they are outsiders, and promotions and salary increases will not be prioritized, and there is no chance of sharing a house or something.

No technology, no experience, laid-off!

Like the old man's pole, after Mo Qi died unexpectedly, the old man saw that he was going to retire soon, but as a result, the unit couldn't stand it and went bankrupt directly, and the man in his fifties went home to farm......

He has the power to change the future of the base.

Zheng Yucheng said that he had, not to understand, but to gamble, betting on the future of the entire base on their father and son.

The excavator project and the simple four-axis machining center project are all in charge of Xie Jianguo, and no one is allowed to interfere, so you can understand Zheng Yucheng's thoughts.

"Dad, why do you say people live all their lives?" He kept lying on top of the tank turret, and it was almost dark that Xie Kai went home.

Xie Jianguo actually did not work overtime for the first time.

Faced with the problem of their son, Xie Jianguo and Liu Xu both looked at him in surprise.

"Son, what's wrong with you? Did the girl reject you?" Liu Xu first suspected that his son was hit by the girl he liked, "I was preparing to transfer her father to our factory in the past two days." ”

Xie Jianguo glared at her, foolishly.

Looking at Xie Kai, he sighed secretly, and said seriously, "Everyone's pursuit is different, but everyone will have their own goals. If you don't have a goal, you will feel that life is meaningless...... A lifetime of life is not about how much achievement, how good a reputation is, and the most important thing is not to forget the original intention. Only by not forgetting the original intention and forging ahead can we always be ......"

Xie Kai chewed on his father's words, and for a while, he suddenly understood what he needed.

"Dad, thank you!" Xie Kai stood up and bowed deeply to his father.

"What are you father and son doing?" Liu Xu looked puzzled.
