After eating, Chen Shu did not leave like the leaders of some enterprises, but directly followed the production line, and Guo Huaiyi has been by his side.

Even if Chen Shu doesn't come, Guo Huaiyi can't leave, and even stay here for the past few days, how can he be missing in this critical period.

In consideration of safety concerns, the final ignition time was set for the first day of the new year, and now it is time to make final preparations. If the No. 1 blast furnace is successfully ignited, then the second furnace will be ignited.

Of course, the unsuccessful situation is also taken into account, and then it is necessary to coordinate the investigation. Originally, Zhao Youtian, Wang Xizhu and the production leaders of Rongwei Dingsheng were all ready to come over, but they were all supported back by Chen Shu.

Since the time was set for the first day of the Lunar New Year, there was no need for people from other companies to continue to watch, but everyone rushed over early the next morning.

"How's it going? can you light a fire today?" Zhao Youtian asked after rushing over.

"Well, it's almost long to prepare, I did an inspection last night, and now it's more convenient to check during the day, and Ma Shan has to be cautious when I do the last inspection, so I have to be cautious about such a big furnace. Guo Huaiyi said.

"I've never seen you so careful when I worked for the government, hehe!" Zhao Youtian said.

"Isn't this for yourself, it's strange if you're not careful!" Guo Huaiyi said, but it was just such a few simple words that eased everyone's tension a little.

It's time to ignite in a while, although Chen Shu is not a metallurgical professional, but he has the experience of Rongwei Peak, so he understands the whole process very well. At that time, the three furnaces of 1080 m³ were all hot-air ignited, and this time was no exception.

The furnace requires a large heat reserve, and initially it is generally high-temperature pig iron, which is often referred to as cast pig iron, which is easy to precipitate graphite carbon, which is conducive to protecting the furnace cylinder and bottom of the blast furnace.

Everyone was very nervous when they started to send hot air, including Chen Shu, not to mention Guo Huaiyi, who was standing on the side, perhaps because Chen Shu felt pressure beside him.

After Chen Shu thought of this, he turned around and left for the office building, but only Chen Shu left, and it was impossible for others to leave, so that he could report all kinds of data in time.

Guo Huaiyi didn't say a word on the walkie-talkie, and kept listening to the reports of the team leaders, and after a while, Guo Huaiyi reported to Chen Shu once.

From nine o'clock in the morning until ten o'clock in the evening, Chen Shu did not leave the factory for a moment, and Wang Xizhu, who was in his prime, and several directors of the blast furnace also stayed here, taking turns to keep an eye on the situation of the blast furnace.

The blast furnace is the most troublesome, especially the new furnace needs to pay attention to too many places, which is also the reason why the company's oven is so long, at this time the first furnace ignition and the second furnace have also begun to charge, once there is no problem here into the stable tapping, there will also be ignition.

After dinner, Chen Shu did not sleep, and leaned on the boss chair after lowering the angle, his eyes squinted as if he had fallen asleep, how could he really fall asleep with something in his heart.

Guo Huaiyi was not around, and in the afternoon, Wang Xizhu slept for almost three hours, and then went to the blast furnace to stare at it.

At half past three in the morning, Chen Shu's mobile phone suddenly rang, Chen Shu looked at his watch and reached out to answer the phone.

"Chairman, now that the iron has been produced, everything is normal!" Guo Huaiyi said excitedly.

"Okay!good!" Chen Shu said three good words in a row, excited and didn't know what to say later. But it was just an instantaneous thing, and Chen Shu calmed down again.

"Mr. Guo, you have been tossing for so long, go back and sleep for a while, you can't postpone the ignition time of the No. 2 furnace by one day, you can't stand it like this!" Chen Shu rubbed his temples and said.

"Isn't there still Wang Xizhu staring at them, I rested for a while, I'm not so tired!" Guo Huaiyi said.

"You're also fifty years old, your body can't stand such a toss, go sleep for a while, if there is anything to ask them to call you, they are all old employees who have been working for more than ten years. Chen Shu said.

"Wait for the dawn! When the day dawns, the head of the No. 3 furnace over there will come over, and then I will go to sleep again, one more person and one more guarantee, not to mention that we have been partners for many years. Guo Huaiyi said.

"Okay, you look at the arrangement, don't be tired!" After hanging up the phone, Chen Shu felt a lot more relaxed, although the No. 2 furnace had not yet been ignited, but it gave people a different feeling.

If the ignition of the No. 1 furnace fails, the blow to people's confidence is too great, and the ignition cost of such a large furnace is not a small number, so everyone is determined to succeed once, and there is no room for mistakes.

This may be the most troublesome time for Chen Shu since he came out to start a business, and it is also the only time that Chen Shu has barely spent the Spring Festival at home.

The Rongsheng Iron and Steel Office has registered all the employees who participated during the Spring Festival, as well as the employees and leaders of other branches, and even made detailed records of the number of overtime days here, which Guo Huaiyi and the others know very well.

Guo Huaiyi doesn't need to worry about how to reward these people, but Guo Huaiyi's work must be well known, and the leaders above can give a detailed detail when they want it.

After the Lantern Festival, Rongsheng Iron and Steel stopped selling slabs and began to roll steel by itself, and the hot coil rolling line was officially announced to be put into operation, which also marked the official operation of the two 2,000 cubic meter blast furnaces of Tangshan Rongwei Industrial Group.

Since moving to Beijing, Chen Shu has spent less and less time in Tangshan, and every time he comes back, he is to deal with the company's affairs, either to hold meetings with the leaders of various branches, or to analyze the market, etc.

With Zhao Youtian, the general manager of the group, in the middle, Chen Shu has a lot less to worry about, and the specific work is basically shared. Now that Rongsheng Steel's two blast furnaces are all in operation, Chen Shu has turned his attention to his neighbor, Hebei Xinsanjiang Iron and Steel.

"Brother Liu, when is the furnace on your side?" asked Chen Shu.

"It will take more than half a month, but I don't have so much trouble for you here, it turns out that the workers of the factory have come, and many people have gone to study during this time, or they are not sure to manage such a large furnace. Liu Chunyu said.

"With more self-confidence, aren't we a good example, it's not that difficult, once it is operated, it is no different from our 1080. Chen Shu said, Liu Chunyu was happy when he heard it.

"I've never asked you what you're going to produce here, have you thought about it?" asked Chen Shu.

"It's still rebar, and we're also producing wire rods, but we're focusing on high strength. We will produce all the specifications of rebar from small to large, and plan to make the finished rolled thread market. ”

"Now there are not many domestic manufacturers of finishing rolling threads, and the technology of small factories is not up to par, and it is impossible to invest so much energy in this area, which can be regarded as a breakthrough for us in the future! Zhao Guoheng's ability is really good, and I will set up a group company after this is put into production, and officially appoint Zhao Guoheng as the general manager of the group. How's the situation on your side?" asked Liu Chunyu.

"I have already made a plan, and I don't plan to be involved in the specific management of the company in the future, but this does not mean that I care about the company anymore, and it is possible to contact the company more frequently, so as to put pressure on their managers. Chen Shu said.

No one can say what will happen in the future, at least Chen Shu has made more efforts and ideas in this regard, and it is man-made!
