In order to cope with the possible invasion of the Soviet Union and avoid the destruction of important industrial facilities located in the northern industrial zone due to the war, which would reduce the war potential, the high-level at that time decided to evacuate and relocate the important factories in the north, especially the military factories and their supporting industries related to the fate of the country, to carry out a planned evacuation and relocation of the central or southwestern Chinese hinterland or deep areas, which were collectively referred to as the "third line" at that time Construction, Shonan Special Steel Plant was established in this background.

When it was just established, this state-owned medium-sized special steel plant did have a good life, in the era of preparing for war, whether it is guns and ammunition, or tanks and artillery, no weapon and equipment can lack the raw material of steel, so the first furnace of steel smelted on the day of the establishment of the Xiangnan special steel plant, the steel produced can be said to be in short supply.

Not only that, because the Shonan Special Steel Plant is one of the few manufacturers that have the ability to produce armor steel, it has been given special care and tilt in the production quota, so the Shonan Special Steel Mill was basically in full production in those years, but with the end of the war with Vietnam, the military production quota has dropped sharply, and the entire military system has entered a cold winter, and the good days of the Shonan Special Steel Plant, which mainly provides special steel for the military sector, have come to an end

"Although the Shonan Special Steel Mill still has the production task of Type 903 alloy steel, which is urgently needed for the Type 051 destroyers under construction by the Navy, it is the only task, and the Shonan Special Steel Mill is also evenly distributed with other special steel mills across the country. Therefore, the amount of tasks has been further reduced, and even the maintenance of the production line is somewhat reluctant, in general, this little output makes Shonan Special Steel Mill simply not full!"

Near the evening, Lu Jiadong, Wang Chuanchen and Qiao Junfeng and their entourage have settled down in the guest house of Xiangnan Special Steel Plant, at this time, Zhao Wei, director of the factory office of Wanshan Factory, who arrived at Xiangnan Special Steel Plant for liaison and coordination, is sitting opposite Lu Jiadong and introducing the specific situation of Xiangnan Special Steel Plant:

Because of this, Shonan Special Steel Plant is particularly looking forward to the joint research and development project of artillery steel. In their own words, this project can be described as a long drought for the Shonan Special Steel Plant. Therefore, the leadership team of Shonan Special Steel Plant attaches great importance to this joint development."

"Knock knock~~" didn't wait for Zhao Wei to finish speaking, he heard the door knocked gently, seeing this, Zhao Wei quickly got up, walked quickly to the door and opened it, and saw a warm smile on his face:

"Director Guo, why didn't you give a word in advance when you came? Hurry, hurry, come in!" Zhao Wei said and led a middle-aged man who looked to be in his early fifties, wearing a neat and straight Zhongshan suit, with a sturdy figure and a dignified look, to Lu Jiadong and Wang Chuanchen, and then introduced the middle-aged man to Lu Jiadong and the others with a smile:

"This is Guo Zhipeng, the director of Xiangnan Special Steel Plant, Director Guo!"

After speaking, Zhao Wei's hand pointed to Wang Chuanchen and continued to introduce: "This is the director of the Planning Department of the Equipment Department of the General Staff and the leader of the new artillery leading group. Wang Chuanchen, Director Wang!"

"Hello Chief Wang!"

"Hello, Director Guo!"

After seeing Wang Chuanchen and Guo Zhipeng shaking hands, Zhao Wei wasted no time in pointing his finger at Lu Jiadong and said: "Director Guo, this is the executive deputy director of Wanshan Factory and the chief designer of the new artillery. Chief Lu Jiadong, Lu!"

After listening to Zhao Wei's introduction, Guo Zhipeng was slightly stunned. In fact, before this, Guo Zhipeng, director of Xiangnan Special Steel Plant, had heard from many sources that Lu Jiadong, the chief designer of the new artillery, was very young. belongs to the kind of young and promising, although he is somewhat prepared for Lu Jiadong's youth.

But when the handsome face that was just in his early twenties appeared in front of Guo Zhipeng's eyes, he was still inexplicably shocked. However, Guo Zhipeng, as the head of the first factory, is naturally a fox who has won the Tao, and the shock on his face was replaced by a kind smile in an instant, and the transition in the middle was so fast that people couldn't detect it at all, and then stretched out his hand and shook it with Lu Jiadong's hand:

"I have long heard that Chief Master Lu is young and promising, and I can see it today, and it really deserves its reputation!"

"Director Guo is really a fool!" Lu Jiadong responded with a faint smile: "Thank you to Xiangnan Special Steel Plant for cooperating with us in the development of a new type of artillery steel, and in the future, Director Lao Guo will have to worry a lot about the matter of artillery steel!"

"Alas, Chief Master Lu, what are you talking about!" As soon as Lu Jiadong's voice fell, Guo Zhipeng opened his mouth to respond: "The joint development of the artillery steel project is like a long-lost spring rain for our Xiangnan Special Steel Plant, which came not only at that time but also in time, and we want to say thank you to our Xiangnan Special Steel Plant for thanking you, Chief Lu!"

In addition, the new artillery project is also a key research and development project of the country and the army, two days ago the General Staff Equipment Department and the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense issued the spirit of the instructions on the development of the new artillery supporting projects, we have also carried out special study and conveyance, because we know the importance of this development, so all the cadres and workers of our Hunan Special Steel Plant will go all out to complete the development task!

Listening to Guo Zhipeng's words, Lu Jiadong nodded with satisfaction and agreed, and then Zhao Wei introduced Qiao Junfeng and others to Guo Zhipeng one by one, and Guo Zhipeng also introduced the assistant director of the Xiangnan Special Steel Plant who accompanied him to Lu Jiadong, so everyone greeted each other in the room for a while, and Guo Zhipeng invited Lu Jiadong and others to go to the hall on the first floor of the guest house for dinner.

In this way, Lu Jiadong and his entourage, accompanied by Guo Zhipeng, left the room and walked towards the hall guest house restaurant, just when everyone was about to come to the dining place, Guo Zhipeng's brows suddenly wrinkled slightly, and then asked softly to the assistant factory director next to him**:

"Why hasn't Lao Zhu come yet?"

"There is still a furnace of molten steel that has not come out, Lao Zhu is not at ease, so he has been staying in the workshop, and I have also gone to him, but you also know Lao Zhu's temper as the factory director"

"Alas!" Without waiting for ** to finish speaking, Guo Zhipeng waved his hand, then sighed and shook his head helplessly, but at this moment, Lu Jiadong's light but powerful words reached Guo Zhipeng's ears:

"Director Guo, why don't you see Chief Craftsman Zhu Haifeng coming over?"

"Oh, Lao Zhu, he still has work to do. I'm afraid I won't be able to come for the time being!" After listening to Lu Jiadong's words, the helplessness on Guo Zhipeng's face disappeared without a trace in an instant, replaced by a kind smile, and then pointed to the ** around him: "In this way, if Chief Master Lu has any technical questions, you can ask this ** comrade, he is also the technical backbone of our factory!"

As he spoke, Guo Zhipeng turned his head to the side of **. He gestured and said, "Xiao Zhang, introduce the technical situation of our factory to Chief Master Lu!"

"Okay!" listened to Guo Zhipeng's words. ** nodded, and then followed Lu Jiadong as he walked and said:

"Four years ago, our factory carried out a thorough technical upgrade because of the need to produce 903 steel for Type 051 destroyers"

Lu Jiadong quietly listened to the introduction, and from time to time made in-depth inquiries about the issues he was concerned about, and gave satisfactory answers one by one. In this way, the group walked and chatted, and soon arrived at the guest house restaurant

At the same time, in the steelmaking workshop of the Shonan Special Steel Plant, a young man in his twenties, holding a square aluminum lunch box that had just been heated with a towel to wipe his sweat, ran to a thin and tall middle-aged man, and said respectfully:

"Teacher Zhu, the meal is hot for you, eat it while it's hot!"

Listened to the young man. Under this teacher Zhu's heavy eyebrows, a pair of bright Danfeng eyes just glanced at it, and then said softly:

"Put it aside!"

"Oh!" the young man replied, and placed the lunch box on the small platform beside him. Then he raised his head, with a mysterious and excited smile on his face, and asked carefully to Mr. Zhu, who was carefully observing a steel plate blank that was undergoing final heat treatment processing in the distance:

"Teacher Zhu. You know, we have a big project!"

"What big project?" said the middle-aged man called Mr. Zhu, but his eyes were still staring at the steel plate that had already been heated red. However, his attitude did not seem to cause the young man's displeasure, but seemed to be a little accustomed to it, so he blurted out as soon as Mr. Zhu's voice fell:

"Cannon Steel Development Project!"

"Hehe!" the young man's voice just fell. Teacher Zhu's pale and gloomy face suddenly twitched slightly, revealing an unnatural smile, and then rolled up his sleeves, and two arms covered with little burn marks appeared in an instant, and then Teacher Zhu's unnatural smile suddenly closed, and said to the young man gently but not sternly:

"When did you Ma Teng become a 'bag inquiry'?"

"It's not that I want to be a 'bag inquiry'!" Ma Teng grabbed his hair, his face flashed a little embarrassed, but he still said in a fifteen-tenth voice:

"Mainly, I heard from the people in the factory department that the new artillery development team is here for Zhu Haifeng, Chief Craftsman Zhu, so"

"Hmph! These people in the factory department are okay to talk about these nonsense things!" This teacher Zhu is none other than Zhu Haifeng, the chief craftsman of Xiangnan Special Steel Plant, at this time, after listening to the words of his student Ma Teng, his face flashed with a trace of displeasure:

"How many times have I told you, listen less to other people's gossip, do your own thing steadfastly, some words are too much, you are tied up when you do things, what could have been done well, in the end your distraction and unsteadiness may fall short!"

"Teacher, I understand!" Listening to Zhu Haifeng's words, Ma Teng couldn't help but nodded, and then looked at Zhu Haifeng's expression, his face showed a look of wanting to say and stopping, his cheeks bulged for a long time, but he wanted to say but saw Zhu Haifeng's serious expression, and swallowed the words stiffly, Zhu Haifeng didn't know about his students, seeing Ma Teng like this, he naturally knew that he had other ideas in his heart, so he picked up the water cup on the platform, took a sip, and said softly:

"Say whatever you need to say! It's all about the factory, if you want to talk about today's ** thing, just say it, if you are not tired, I will be tired for you."

"Hehe, the teacher still understands me!" After listening to Zhu Haifeng's words, Ma Teng did not forget to behave, and then his smile flashed with a rare seriousness and continued:

"Teacher, in fact, I think that the assistant to the factory director came to you for dinner today, you should go there, after all, Lu Jiadong, the chief designer of the new artillery, came in person, and you went to communicate, discuss and discuss, and lay a good foundation for future cooperation, right?"

"Communication, communication, discussion?" Zhu Haifeng said, and then glared at Ma Teng: "What is communication?

Seeing that Zhu Haifeng's face was a little gloomy, Ma Teng, who understood Zhu Haifeng's character, pondered in his heart for a moment, and finally said: "Of course, of course, it is the issue of communication and discussion of artillery steel!"

"Who are you communicating with?" Guo Zhipeng, ** or that Lu Jiadong?"

"Of course this is Lu Jiadong!"

"Does he understand?" As soon as Zhu Haifeng's words came out, Ma Teng didn't know how to answer, he just puffed out his cheeks, and finally didn't say anything, but Zhu Haifeng didn't pay attention to Ma Teng's expression, but continued in an unquestionable tone:

"I told you a long time ago, what we do is to do the things in hand in a down-to-earth manner, no matter what tasks are assigned by the superior unit, let's complete it seriously, and to communicate, it is nothing more than to say some nonsense that expresses determination, and the real technical things will not make sense, and will not be thorough, rather than wasting time there, it is better to study and study how to develop things, this is the right way we should go!

And in my opinion, to engage in scientific research should have the mentality of engaging in scientific research, one step at a time, and endure loneliness, the gossip of the outside world is really easy to be distracted, especially the words of the leaders, at every turn is a burst of praise, a long time to give some encouragement, look pleasing to the eye, maybe there will be a wish for promotion, these are easy to make people's minds scattered, resulting in not being able to devote themselves to their own research and development!

"But teacher, I heard that although Lu Jiadong is young, he has a comprehensive range of skills, maybe he is different from other leaders!"

As soon as Ma Teng's words fell, Zhu Haifeng pouted: "It may be different, but it's basically the same!" If he doesn't understand, it's okay to say, I'm afraid that if he understands so many sesame mung bean things, he will come over to point fingers, and in this way, a good project may be ruined, so let's be down-to-earth!"

"Uh, teacher, you're still"

"What, do you want to say that I'm stubborn?" Before Ma Teng finished speaking, Zhu Haifeng showed a slight smile and then said confidently: "Stubbornness has the advantage of being stubborn, and I will not be disturbed by the outside world since I was young!"

As he spoke, Zhu Haifeng glanced at the steel plate that had been heat-treated, and nodded slightly: "Today's temperature is very good!" After speaking, he picked up the lunch box on the platform and said to Ma Teng:

"What else to see? Eat!" (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point () to vote for recommendation, monthly pass, your support, is my biggest motivation. For mobile phone users, please go to M. to read. )
