Chapter 229: Fresh Blood

Lu Jiadong didn't know the problem that plagued Chen Zhen all night, and even if he knew, he didn't have time to think about what the future would be, because even if the current new artillery project had made Lu Jiadong busy like a spinning top spinning at high speed, it could be said that he kept spinning all the time. +◆,

Since the new artillery project was formally approved, the research and development of the new artillery has officially entered the fast lane, for the Wanshan plant to undertake the development of the new artillery, it can be said that it is a golden opportunity, by this opportunity, the Wanshan plant can update its own equipment, master more advanced production technology and manufacturing technology.

That is to say, through the development of this new type of artillery, the Wanshan Factory can complete a gorgeous industrial upgrade, so as to master the manufacturing process and related technologies from ordinary firearms to large-caliber artillery, full-caliber body-controlled weapons and equipment, and officially grow from a small factory with a single product type to a comprehensive military factory with a variety of weapons and equipment production capacity.

However, as the saying goes, opportunities are often accompanied by challenges, and the development of new artillery is also the same, and the biggest challenge faced by the Wanshan factory is that it has never produced any large-caliber body weapons, and it can be said that the manufacturing experience in this area is almost zero, you must know that the Wanshan factory has mainly produced light weapons since its establishment, and the largest caliber is the 40mm light automatic grenade launcher.

Although this caliber is divided according to the traditional meaning of 20mm as the demarcation line of guns, the aperture of this weapon has far exceeded the minimum requirements of the caliber of the gun, but because the grenade launcher adopts the principle of high and low pressure, the lying pressure when firing is not large, and the muzzle velocity and firing range are much worse than the real sense of the "gun", so even the Wanshan Factory, which has not touched the small cannon of about 20mm, suddenly has to undertake the development of more than 100 mm and large-caliber full-bore pressure guns. The difficulty is imaginable!

The most important reason for this problem was that a large amount of machinery and equipment seized from the secret military factory in Vietnam last year was distributed to the Wanshan factory because of the support for the expansion and transformation of the Wanshan factory.

Among them, there is a complete set of large-caliber artillery production lines, which can be said to be among the best in the domestic production line of the same type at that time. Now the new factory of Wanshan Factory has been completed, and the artillery production line has also been installed in the new wide workshop, from the perspective of hardware, Wanshan Factory has fully equipped with the ability to produce artillery, and what is lacking is nothing more than the processing technology of artillery production and the software of skilled operators!

As for the situation in terms of these software, the Armament Department of the General Staff Headquarters and the Commission of Science, Technology, and Industry for National Defense actually had preliminary arrangements for the expansion of the Wanshan plant as early as the Wanshan plant; you must know that the original number of workers in the Wanshan plant was only about 500 when it was full, and now the number of original workers and workers in the expansion into a comprehensive military factory is far from sufficient, and it has become an inevitable choice to transfer cadres and workers from other military factories to supplement them. The key is how to transfer and what kind of personnel to transfer, which has become the root knot of the leaders of the General Staff Armament Department and the Commission of Science, Technology, and Industry for National Defense who have not been able to make up their minds for a long time.

Now, the new artillery project has settled in the Wanshan Plant, and the leaders of the higher-level departments have finally determined the specific direction of supplementing personnel, that is, to supplement the Wanshan Plant as many talents in the field of artillery manufacturing as possible, with the issuance of a letter of dispatch from the Equipment Department of the General Staff and the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense.

Hundreds of cadres and workers, together with the families of thousands of people behind them, rushed to the Wanshan factory from all directions. Among them are skilled workers, and there are recognized technical experts. There are also experts in related fields, and these people from different factories and regions have converged into a fresh and energetic blood, which has been injected into the body of Wanshan Factory, making the original energetic heart of Wanshan Factory beat more surging!

But this injection of fresh blood. After all, these foreign cadres and workers have their own long-term work style and living habits in the previous units and departments, and they are somewhat uncomfortable with living and working in this strange place in Wanshan, especially in the process of integrating into the new family of Wanshan. This reaction is even more pronounced.

As the executive deputy director of the Wanshan Factory, Lu Jiadong is currently facing the most difficult problem is how to completely integrate this fresh blood into the vigorous life of the Wanshan Factory, so as to pave the way for the development of new artillery.

At the same time, we call on other cadres and workers of Wanshan Plant to care more about and take care of the new workers and their families, so that these new employees can enter the factory with peace of mind, work at ease, and care about life.

"Slow down! Slow down! Slow down!" Wanshan factory's new plant is extremely large, ventilation and lighting are also very good, and the previous small workshop in the ravine can be described as a world of difference, in the first area of this large plant, a large artillery special horizontal boring and milling, Liu Liang and Zhang Aiguo are nervously operating next to the machine tool, and standing next to them a middle-aged man of nearly forty years old, wearing a little oil stained overalls, his face is sometimes relaxed, sometimes nervously guiding Liu Liang and Zhang Aiguo's operation:

"Yes! Yes, the scale must be adjusted accurately, not the slightest difference, otherwise this drill bit will go down, the blank will be scrapped, the steel used to make artillery is special steel, each one is precious, but we can't afford to waste, so we must be very careful when processing!"

"Director Cui, do you think this will work?" As soon as Director Cui's voice fell, Liu Liang straightened up, wiped the fine beads of sweat on his face, and asked Director Cui, while Director Cui leaned down and glanced at it, his face instantly flashed a trace of incredulity, and then looked at Liu Liang and Zhang Aiguo in front of him and praised him:

"I, Cui Mingjun, have been doing this kind of artillery boring and milling machine for so many years, and I have taught countless apprentices, but none of them have learned so fast like the two of you!

Cui Jianjun is just one of the new personnel who have just been transferred from other factories, in the original military factory is a technical expert in artillery manufacturing and processing, for the operation of various processes and mechanical equipment in the field of artillery production can be described as proficient, the technology is very good, and he is also down-to-earth and willing to work, so he was quickly promoted to the director of the military workshop by Lu Jiadong not long after he was transferred to the Wanshan factory, but Cui Mingjun said and said, his eyes couldn't help but light up, as if he remembered something, and then asked Liu Liang who was standing in front of him curiously:

"It seems that it's not just the two of you who learn fast! Master Zhang on the other side of the line, Master Ren of heat treatment, and Deputy Section Chief Qi of the technical department have all said that young people like the two of you under their hands are not only fast but also very hard, I wonder, I am also a person who has worked in a military factory for half my life, but I have never seen so many diligent and studious young people like your Wanshan Factory, Liangzi, how did you do it?"

"With our Deputy Director Lu here, is there anything else that can't be done?" Without waiting for Liu Liang to answer, Zhang Aiguo, who had just stood up straight from the side of the machine tool and was wiping his hands with a rag, said first, and after listening to Zhang Aiguo's words, Cui Mingjun couldn't help but be stunned, but Zhang Aiguo didn't stop talking:

"When we were still in the old factory, Deputy Director Lu established a training course for young workers, organized big guys to learn knowledge, discuss technology, many technical experts in the factory will go where to give lectures and impart knowledge, don't look at Deputy Director Lu is so busy, as long as he will find time in the factory to give lectures in the training class, most of the young workers in the factory have studied in this training course, their own foundation is very solid, and some are also involved in the development of a number of weapons and equipment, so they naturally learn everything quickly!"

"Deputy Director Lu personally went to give a lecture?"

Looking at Cui Mingjun's surprised eyes, Zhang Aiguo paused slightly, and then nodded lightly: "Yes, how?"

"It's no wonder!" Before Zhang Aiguo finished speaking, Cui Mingjun's face showed a sudden smile: "Let me tell you, what I admire most in this Wanshan factory is our deputy director Lu, when I first came, I saw that he was in a high position at a young age, and I was not convinced, but after contact, I knew that this deputy director Lu is really not simple."

His understanding of artillery manufacturing technology is more familiar and familiar than that of me, who has been doing artillery processing for half my life, and I have discussed with him the problems of artillery processing when I entered the factory.

Not only that, Deputy Director Lu also has in-depth research on the new processing of artillery, and he proposed the self-tightening technology of the body, which my old Cui heard for the first time, but fortunately, this time Deputy Director Lu went to Yangcheng on a business trip, just to introduce several key artillery manufacturing machinery and equipment, and my old Cui was also fortunate to open his eyes, what is the use of these good things!"

As he spoke, Cui Mingjun's face flashed with irrepressible gratitude, and then continued with a little excitement: "Not to mention the character, when my old Cui first came, someone in the family had a serious illness due to water and soil adaptation, and I had no money on hand at that time, if it wasn't for Deputy Director Lu to pay me medical expenses, my family really doesn't know what would have happened."

"Old Cui, Old Cui," before Cui Mingjun finished speaking, an urgent call suddenly reached the ears of Cui Mingjun and others, which made several people can't help but follow the prestige, only to see Qiao Junfeng standing at the door of the workshop, waving to Cui Mingjun and them, and then shouted loudly:

"What are you doing in a daze, come over and help! Our new equipment has arrived" (to be continued......
