"So, we can't do that project without that?" asked Zheng Yucheng.

Xie Kai was stunned.

The budget of the base, isn't there money for the 65,000-ton large press project?

Why did Zheng Yucheng ask like this!

"Originally, if 45,000 tons could meet the use, 65,000 tons would be allowed first. Priority will be given to the ......renovation of Super 7 and Yun 10," Wang Guilin explained, "These two projects will require a lot more than our budget. And the engine ......"

Xie Kai rolled his eyes when he heard this.

What a misappropriation.

"At the beginning, we wanted a 65,000-ton press, the technical reserve was insufficient, and the time was too long, so we chose to build 45,000 tons first, if there was no 65,000-ton press, many of our projects would be severely restricted, and then we would start to do this, and time would have to be wasted. Xie Kai said solemnly, "Even if the aircraft carrier pre-research project is stopped, the funds cannot be misappropriated." ”

"The misappropriation of funds cannot become a habit!" Xie Kai's face was extremely resolute.

So far, there has been no misappropriation of funds in the base, but Zheng Yucheng and they are becoming more and more accustomed to spending money directly from the small treasury, and now that the supervision of funds has become stricter, it is not so easy.

Actually began to embezzle project funds.

"Once you open your mouth, you can't stop it. Just like the big press project, once it is misappropriated, the misappropriated funds can be used to build a large press, can the aircraft carrier be developed? No, in order not to let the money invested in the past go down the drain, we can only invest more money in it, and then create a vicious circle, the aircraft carrier can be built, but the construction cannot be ......

"Okay, okay, isn't this still misappropriated!" Zheng Yucheng's old face was a little unbearable, and he interrupted Xie Kai's words.

Wang Guilin next to him snickered.

I had already told Zheng Yucheng that it was not feasible, and he couldn't help it if he didn't believe it.

"Rest early, tomorrow morning the big press will be tested, as long as the test is successful, the trial production of turbofan engine turbine dis......cs will begin at three o'clock in the afternoon," Wang Guilin saw that the time was already very late, and reminded him to rest.

The matter of the switch factory has been arranged, and after the matter is finished here, it will have to be done there again.

Xie Kai looked at Wang Guilin suspiciously, "What is the auspicious time of the zodiac?"

"Where is so much nonsense, the overall turbine disc in the heating furnace will start ignition heating until the test machine is successful, the test machine will be tested at nine o'clock, ignited at ten o'clock, and the temperature will reach three o'clock in the afternoon. Wang Guilin glanced at Xie Kai.

Hearing this, Xie Kai was a little relieved.

If you really rely on the auspicious day of the zodiac, how to think about it.

In the guest house of Xinyue Factory, Xie Kai couldn't sleep over and over, this big press is too important, and many follow-up projects have to be successful.

In addition, several large presses of more than 10,000 tons in China, due to the immature technology and immature technology, have begun to enter the late stage of life, and this large press bears too many key components of engineering projects.

I couldn't sleep, so I simply ran to the big press workshop, where there were technicians, Chu Guorong and others didn't live in the guest house, and stayed in that workshop every day, just to ensure that the big press test was successful.

At night, the big press workshop is brightly lit, and almost every corner is illuminated brightly.

The 45,000-ton press with a huge fuselage gives people a heavy sense of oppression under the illumination of the lights.

The huge parts made of steel look so strong.

"Why are you here?" Seeing Xie Kai coming, Minister Shen Hong took the initiative to ask, the old man's eyes were red, but his face was full of energy.

"Leader, you don't rest? The body is the capital of life. Xie Kai didn't say why he came.

"If you don't look at the successful trial production of this big press, where can you sleep. This is a small step in the progress of forging technology, but it is a big step forward in the overall manufacturing strength of our country. ”

"Leader, the increase in pressure of 10,000 tons is no longer a small step. Xie Kai couldn't understand that in the eyes of such a big man, the increase in forging pressure of 10,000 tons was just a small step.

A big step forward in the country's overall manufacturing strength, indeed.

Shen Hong looked at Xie Kai, smiled, and didn't speak.

"Hey, Uncle Zheng and Uncle Wang are also here?" Xie Kai was a little embarrassed, he didn't know how to chat, he turned his head and saw that at the gate of the workshop not far away, Zheng Yucheng and Wang Guilin also came.

"What do they say about the big press?" Shen Hong suddenly asked.

"Next year's budget is 150 million yuan, and our foundry base in Jiayuguan will be laid at the end of the first month. Xie Kai looked at Shen Hong, "Minister, what's the big project?"

"If you don't have a big project, you can't do it? People who are engaged in industry always hope that the country's manufacturing strength is as strong as possible, right? We are a big country, but we are not a big manufacturing country, let alone a manufacturing power. The old man's tone was a little lonely.

"Yes, at the current rate, in twenty or thirty years, our country will begin to become a manufacturing power from a manufacturing power. Xie Kai told the old man with certainty, "Which other country has not developed for hundreds of years? Less than 40 years after the founding of the People's Republic of China, our country already has such an industrial scale, which is already very good." ”

Although dissatisfied with the status quo of domestic industrial technology, Xie Kai also knows that this is already a very fast speed.

Even, when the Soviet Union collapsed, China was the only country left in the world with a complete industrial system.

"The Soviet Union was developing faster than we did. ”

"There's no way, people have caught up with the good time, the world economic crisis, they have evacuated almost the entire United States; and later, it caught up with World War II, more than half of the Germans' troops were used to force them to develop industry, and then, wrestling with the Americans, competing to be the big brother, the country is all for the military industry......" Xie Kai knew that the old man was clear, but he still comforted him.

If there is no Shen Hong, the country's industry may not be able to reach such an extent.

When the 12,000-ton free forging press was built, there was no experience and technology in the production of large-scale machines in China, especially the four columns, which were completely under the auspices of Shen Hong, mobilizing all the technical bulls in the country to work together for public relations, using the electroslag welding technology that had just appeared, and the four columns with a length of 18 meters and a weight of 80 tons, and then the 12,000-ton free forging press was successfully built.

At the same time, the manufacturing process of other high-pressure vessels, high-pressure cylinders, etc. has been solved.

Not only Zheng Yucheng and Wang Guilin came, but even Long Yaohua and Li Mingshan also entered the workshop at three o'clock in the morning.

"All the bigwigs are here, if a missile comes and everyone is killed, how much will China's industry be affected?"

Until the day slowly dawned.

I don't know when, Xie Kai fell asleep in the office next to the big press workshop, and when he woke up, there were already many people in the workshop.

"It's begun?" Xie Kai hurriedly ran out.

The crane on the big press has already begun to move.

All parts of the entire workshop will be thoroughly inspected.

In order to ensure safety, except for specially designated areas, non-staff are not allowed to approach the area around the large press.

"Preparation of each system, preparation of each system, 30-minute countdown to the test ......"

Chu Guorong personally presided over the test work.

Xie Kai couldn't help but wonder, didn't he say that he wanted to cut the ribbon?

It's done without a sound?

"They thought it was too wasteful, so they put the big red flower on the big press, you see the top. Zheng Yu drilled into Xie Kai, who was beside him, and pointed to the top of the big press.

Sure enough, in the top area, a large red flower hung in the middle of a red satin, which was wrapped around the top of the press like a scarf.

The waiting time always passes so slowly.

A bunch of bigwigs were silently waiting on the side, watching.

Xie Kai became more and more impatient.

"Ten second countdown starts, ten, nine......"

Finally hearing this voice, Xie Kai became excited, and he didn't know why he was excited.

"Three, two, one, hydraulic system start!"

"Hum~"

A small buzzing sound, built separately outside the workshop, the water with the medium is added to the work of the hydraulic water pump, through the huge hydraulic pipe to continuously increase the pressure, quickly moving towards the various mechanisms of the hydraulic press.

Except for the sound of the hydraulic motor, almost no other sound can be heard in the whole workshop.

"Pressure 20%!"

"Pressure 30%!"

"Pressure 50% ......"

"Die Lifting ......"

Although it has been inspected many times and the pressure mechanism has been checked separately, this is the first time that thousands of tons of moving parts have been lifted in a huge pressure environment.

Fine beads of sweat were already forming on Chu Guorong's forehead, and as the order was given, his eyes kept staring at the moving mechanism of the middle part of the huge machine that was motionless.

Zheng Yucheng and others were also nervous.

Shen Hong's eyes widened, and the green tendons on his neck popped up.

"It must be successful! it must be successful!" Xie Kai didn't know when he became so expectant.

He used to look forward to it, but he didn't expect it like he does now.

"Ga~"

There was a cacophony of metal grinding.

"It's moving, it's moving!" Zheng Yucheng said excitedly.

"I'm excited, I don't know until I lift it......" Xie Kai despised the old guy for not seeing.

Shen Hong looked at the old and the young, smiled, and did not speak.

Under the action of huge hydraulic pressure, thousands of tons of steel were slowly lifted, and then slowly lowered.

"Isn't it a hammer?" Zheng Yucheng was a little disappointed when he saw this situation.

What he hoped was that the hydraulic press would be lifted high and then slammed down, preferably to the ground.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

The crane on the top of the plant moved, and the huge metal pliers hanging under the crane clamped out a red-hot disc blank with a diameter of more than one meter from the heating furnace next to it, and sent it to the feeding port next to the big press, and slowly moved to the middle of the mold of the big press with the assistance of workers wearing thick insulating clothing.

Driven by the hydraulic pressure, the stamper slowly descends and gently rests on the reddish blank......
