Jingxi Hotel is actually very close to the Foreign Affairs University, and Gu Biao can usually see it from the roof of the dormitory - the Foreign Affairs University is on the east side of Yuyuan Lake, and the Jingxi Hotel is on the south side of the lake, and there is a lake between the two places.

It was a ten-story Russian-style building, completed in the early 60s, and it was a very tall landmark in the center of the capital at that time.

However, inside the Jingxi Hotel, Gu Biao went to the capital to study for a year, but he never entered it once. It is only known that it is a guest house for the military.

After following the flow of people inside, Gu Biao saw more than a dozen "stalls" in a large conference hall, with signboards such as "Military Commission", "Ministry F of the State Council", "Ministry of Propaganda C", and "Ministry of Foreign Trade".

Of course, it is definitely much more formal than the booths in the talent market in later generations, and the layout of the aura is completely different, very quiet, and there is absolutely no chaos.

And everyone's general destination has been decided, and they are not here to "look for a job". There are only some details to talk about in terms of specific job settings, and then it is good to adjust.

And most ministries and commissions, even just a few words of chat, received the materials, set the level of treatment, and then the rest waited for the file to be slowly determined - this was also very common at that time, or not a main post followed by a dozen or even dozens of deputy positions.

In many cases, the receiving department does not consider what the people who are stuffed in are suitable for doing, but only ensures that the administrative level is not reduced, so as not to chill the hearts of the heroes.

Gu Biao took the letter of introduction very low-key and came to the booth of the Foreign Affairs Bureau of the First Ministry of Aircraft.

He looked at it and found that there was not a single queue that could be described as a crowd.

The situation is similar in the Foreign Affairs Bureau of several other technical departments.

It seems that because many of the old-fashioned hawkish diplomats in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs are transferred from the army, they have no understanding of technology at all and have no foundation in science and engineering. I went to the Foreign Affairs Bureau of the industrial department, but I couldn't do a lot of things, which led to this situation.

Nowadays, there are very few compound talents who understand foreign affairs work experience and engineering technology.

He also generously put the materials on the reception staff's table: "Hello comrade, I am Gu Biao from the Foreign Affairs University, and the school leaders recommended me to come to your department for an internship, and this is my material." ”

The on-site responsible comrade of the Foreign Affairs Bureau is a division chief named Bao Chengcheng. Before Gu Biao appeared, he was a little idle, so when he saw Gu Biao, he was quite enthusiastic.

"Why do you look so young? It's 20 years at most. Director Bao secretly thought in his heart, took the recommended materials and glanced at them a few times, and was actually in awe:

"You are the Comrade Xiao Gu who 'poverty is not socialism', I know you, you write well, and you are also hard-hearted and reasonable in dealing with foreigners. ”

Gu Biao didn't expect it to be such an opening statement, and he had a more thorough understanding of his "tree typical" effect.

It's good to listen to it once, especially on the front page. Even the officials at the county level will be close to you when they see you.

He hurriedly humbled himself: "You have won the award, I also specialize in the art industry, and I happen to solve new problems that no one has ever seen, and I have occasional gains." ”

Director Bao just nodded, and did not respond to Gu Ao's modesty, obviously not really focusing on politeness.

However, after continuing to look at the resume, Director Bao's heart really rose a little bit of love for talent: "It turns out that you also played a technical contribution in the helium machine project of Project No. 1?"

That's very good, I have a foundation in science and engineering, why did I go to the Foreign Affairs University in the first place? You can enter Tsinghua University or USTC. ”

"It turns out that I am still the cadre of the Qiantang Oxygen Concentrator Factory, no wonder -- by the way, what is your father's name? I went to Qiantang with the leader 10 years ago, maybe I know each other. ”

When he said the last sentence, Director Bao's expression was already relatively kind, and it was completely the attitude of "his own people" in the same system, at least like an elder promoting a junior.

"My father's name is Gu Yong, and he is currently the head of the technical section. "Gu Biao is not good at friendship, but he has to answer questions.

Director Bao thought for a while and said to himself: "Gu Yong...... I don't have any impression, maybe I wasn't a senior cadre back then, I remember that the technical department was in charge of Shao Gong at that time, and I was quite impressed. By the way, do you recognize Qin Hui? I still have contact with Lao Qin. ”

Gu Biao hurriedly replied: "Of course Uncle Qin recognizes that after Uncle Shao was 'Bai Zhuan', it was Uncle Qin who promoted my father to be the technical section chief. ”

"Shao Gong was beaten into a white dict......atorship? He's done a great job, how can he do this. Bao was shocked, and sighed quite emotionally, as if recalling something,

"10 years ago, I went to your factory with the leader to inspect. At that time, it was also the famous No. 1 project......"

In every era, there is the "No. 1 Project" in each era, that is, the most important scientific research project of the country during this period.

Gu Biao listened to the time when Director Bao said, about the end of the 60s, and knew that he was referring to "two bombs and one satellite".

Maybe there are too few people who come to "apply", and Gu Biao is also a person in the system, and he can listen to less confidential information. Director Bao was so idle that he actually set up a dragon gate formation and showed off what he had seen and heard back then:

"At that time, the nuclear bomb of the two bombs was in the exclusive management of the Second Aircraft Department, and it had nothing to do with us. The manufacture of missiles themselves is carried out by the Ministry of Ordnance Industry, so we are left with the Ministry of Aircraft to make supporting facilities for ballistic missiles.

At that time, the country did not have ballistic nuclear submarines, and all nuclear missiles relied on underground silos. Underground bases for nuclear combat readiness must be equipped with wartime oxygen production equipment. The state required 60,000 cubic meters of large-scale oxygen production, but at that time, the country could only produce 30,000 cubic meters.

Our current director, who was still the director of the Thermal Engineering Institute ten years ago, took me to Qianyang with him, and even went to Qianyang to investigate and find foreign aid to tackle key problems, and lived for a long time. In the end, Shao Gong had a way, and he deserved to be a top student of Jiaotong University, and he had a hand in thermal machinery! He didn't sleep much for several months, and he just put out the drawings of 60,000 square meters -- how could such an expert who made a major contribution to the cause of national defense ...... this kind of expert?"

Director Bao sighed a few times, and couldn't say any more.

His example, Gu Biao can generally understand.

The big oxygen production equipment is similar to the big chemical case seen in the general industrial literature - 400,000 tons of ethylene must be higher than 200,000 tons of yield, low unit energy consumption, 800,000 tons of ethylene is better than 400,000 tons of cattle.

The equipment for separating air is also 60,000 cubic meters of oxygen generator, and the power consumption per unit output is much lower than 30,000 cubic meters, and 120,000 cubic meters and 150,000 cubic meters are further awesome.

During the Cold War, when preparing for a nuclear war, in order to ensure the survivability of underground nuclear bases, it was necessary to support large-scale oxygen production.

Because water and food are easy to store strategically, and oxygen cannot be stored in cylinders, it is a drop in the bucket. Once the surface atmosphere is polluted by a nuclear strike, the underground base without a large oxygen production equipment will not be able to hold on to it.

(At that time, underground nuclear warfare bases were equipped with small reactors to generate electricity, and large oxygen generators could theoretically last a long time by relying on nuclear power to drive them.) Of course, no one knows how effective it will be in actual combat, because there has never been a nuclear war. ）

This is also why Gu Biao's father's factory, as well as Section Chief Shao himself, survived the first seven or eight years during the indescribable period of ten years, and was not affected by the movement - at that time, no one dared to harass the industrial units that were fighting with the Soviets on Zhenbao Island and had a little bit of contact with the nuclear deterrent.

It's a pity that three or four years after the completion of the two bombs and one satellite, diplomatic relations were established with the United States, and the orders for oxygen concentrators for various nuclear bomb silo bases in China were almost supplied, and the external threat was greatly reduced.

However, this example also gave Gu Biao a temporary reassurance: no matter how the national policy changes, generally speaking, a technician who has participated in the No. 1 project, as long as he contributes, even if he is radical, can at least ensure that he will be okay for three or four years after completion.

(Academician Deng, the father of the two bombs, was also engaged in three or four years after the successful explosion of the hydrogen bomb.) Previously, President Zhou had been trying to protect him against public opinion, but later it seemed to be customary. ）

He Gu Biao has now participated in the membrane helium machine project, and his contributions have been recorded in history, so he also has a three-year talisman, during which he can make the young people retreat and dare not frame him.

Everything that happened to him, right or wrong, will basically be left to observe and observe, and he will be counted right for the time being.

As for the expiration of the three-year period, Gu Biao still wants to be the pathfinder of the times, so he needs other forces to be a talisman.

However, by that time, the direction of the domestic situation was almost clear, and the famous purge of economic crime in 82 had passed. As for the "YD" in the future, it is to deal with vicious criminal offenses, not to economic problems.

……

Director Bao and Gu Biao have talked so much about the past, and they have all talked about some friendship, so there is naturally no need to go on seriously for the interview.

After saying some words of encouragement that Gu Biao would contribute to the export of domestic technology/equipment after arriving at the Foreign Affairs Bureau, Director Bao stamped the letter of intent and other documents.

People who are accustomed to the meticulous HR interview system of listed companies and foreign companies in later generations may be dumbfounded by today's style.

However, in the era of package distribution planning, industrial organs, large central enterprises, and state-owned enterprises used people in this way.

Where did you come from, one side and three sides, seeing that you are your own person, you use it directly.

What's more, Gu Biao is only here to be an intern, and he is not transferring files to get compiled.

"Is this okay?" After the process was completed, Gu Biao himself felt that it was too smooth.

"You're here to work, not to fight for treatment. It's too late for us to welcome it. Director Bao was obviously in a good mood, and he said everything to Gu Biao,

"If we were to stuff someone who had been an ambassador in Eastern Europe and give us a pension, it would be miserable. The rank of your Ministry of Foreign Affairs is notoriously high-matched. The ambassador is higher than our director, this is not to invite someone to work, but to invite a master to come back and provide for it. ”

Gu Biao suddenly realized: It turns out that he is still a high-end cheap laborer, and he doesn't have to pay his salary, and at most he will be given a little field allowance. To hell with the fact that the departments are not welcome.

It's also to blame that the level of the tea party early in the morning is too high, and all I see are big people, so I worry in vain.
