Chapter 30: Facts
For Mr. Wen, an almost all-round engineering warm man, thirty years later, in the propaganda of major domestic media, there is a very classic and tear-jerking bridge, and even Wang Zhengguo was fooled at the beginning, and it was only later that he deliberately went to the vicinity of Shudu to squat and meet the retired old man of Shudu, which can be regarded as restoring the facts and truth.
Even now, that bridge section is still very clear: in the most difficult project of the No. 10, that is, when the Su-27 was introduced in China, the sound of the army asking to dismount the No. 10 was endless, and the No. 10 project had been established for nearly ten years, but not even a prototype was made, coupled with the supporting turbojet 15 to launch the horse, the whole project was already in jeopardy.
Then, I looked at it, and the sensational place came: at that time, the funding problem in the institute was quite prominent, and even the salaries of technical personnel were often not paid, as the chief engineer of Project No. 10, Mr. Wen had to go out to set up a stall to sell noodles in order to subsidize his family after work.
Listen, this is said to be more sensational, followed by another popular sentence in that era: "It is better to sell tea and eggs than to build missiles", which is the true writing of military scientific research units. ”
In fact, if you are willing to delve into the essence behind these propaganda, you will find that there are many loopholes. First of all, we must admit that the 10th in the early nineties did experience a turmoil, but it was only a turmoil, at that time, the deputy chairman of the army, who was in charge of the modernization of the national defense military, personally decided to continue the project, and the power was launched by imported Russian 31FN, so the project continued.
Let's not talk about whether the chief engineer is so embarrassed that he needs to set up a stall to buy noodles after work, just looking at the professionalism of a chief designer, it is absolutely impossible for him to work from 9 to 5 in the morning, and then run to buy noodles after work, which is simply funny.
Although the No. 10 project of Shudu Institute is a little bumpy, it has always been under development, and it has never been dismounted, there is such a big project in it, and it is too late to work overtime every day, and I go to buy noodles, just pull it down!
For the older generation of scientific researchers in the republic, they are people who would rather do projects hungry and hungry, how can they run away from doing their jobs when they have completely solved the problem of food and clothing?
Mr. Wen is indeed a super warm man who can cook, but he is also a chief designer who is responsible for the national mission and the research institute, and he is a big man with deputy department-level treatment in terms of job treatment, yes, the chief engineer of Shudu Institute is treated as a deputy department-level, such a person will really be so poor that he doesn't do his job to buy noodles?
To be more realistic, let's directly say whether the Shudu Institute in the early nineties couldn't afford to pay salaries, and how much it was, about this, Wang Zhengguo in his previous life also deliberately checked the relevant data.
In an internal reminiscence of the Shudu Institute "Eagle Strikes the Sky", it was clearly stated that the average salary of the Shudu Institute in the early nineties was 400 yuan, which was admitted by the director himself, and the chief teacher revealed that his income was the highest level in the institute, about 800 to 900 a month, although the basic salary was indeed only about 200 yuan, but various subsidies were the main part of the income.
In Shudu in the early nineties, in terms of the consumption level at that time, Mr. Song's salary alone could be about 800 yuan, which was already quite good, who would run to buy noodles after work all day?
Maybe in the 90s, there will indeed be some senior engineers and designers of state-owned research institutes who can get off work to do side jobs, after all, at that time, not all research institutes can have national key scientific research projects like Shudu Institute, and life can still be a little passable.
Some families have a heavy burden, and it happens that there are several children in the family who have grown up, and when they are waiting for money, plus the unit has no projects, the efficiency is low, and there is nothing to do all day, so it is normal to engage in some side jobs.
In the early nineties, the salary of the chief teacher was not low, and his lover was also a middle-level scientific research and design staff of the Shudu Institute, and there was an only daughter in the family, where would there be any huge expenditure gap?
At least when Wang Zhengguo went to Shudu to inquire in his last life, some people bluntly said that at that time, Mr. Wen's daughter was dressed up beautifully all day long, and she was definitely a flower in the entire Shudu.
In fact, this is the case, but the official media is still the same old propaganda drama, Wang Zhengguo really doesn't know what to say, even if you publicize it, please be able to have a degree, take 10,000 steps back, based on Wang Zhengguo's personal inference, it is indeed possible for Mr. Wen to guard the noodle stall, but it is definitely not a matter of running to buy noodles after work for a living.
It is more likely that Mr. Wen's relatives and friends in the institute have a small noodle stall in their families. And it is impossible for Chief Teacher Song to work overtime every day, maybe when he doesn't work overtime one day, he can't be busy watching the noodle stall when he passes by after work, or the boss has something to do temporarily, and Chief Teacher Song will help him take a look.
This kind of accidental help to see the situation of the store, should be the real fact, this is a very common thing, the last Wang Zhengguo did it many times, a friend opened a very Shudu characteristics of the hot and sour noodle shop in the snack street next to the school, after work, sometimes it is normal to help with the handle, and even from time to time you can meet students to eat, at this time you have to take out the pride of being a teacher: free order!
It should have been after work to meet a friend to open a noodle stall busy, Mr. Wen as a warm man who can cook, people are also kind, occasionally help to look at the stall, just like that, stunned is able to be packaged by various propaganda into the economic embarrassment of the chief engineer of the national key model development, after work as soon as he ran to set up a noodle stall.
In fact, this is also a common paragraph of the Republic's media propaganda: brainless exaggeration, if during a project, a staff member involved in the project dies due to a sudden illness, the official media immediately publicizes what is the accumulation of work, Wang Zhengguo also admits that the pressure on the Republic's scientific research personnel is great, and there will be some people who have accumulated work and become ill, they are the backbone of the country, but in the propaganda of a project with more than double digits of personnel overwork and illness, what kind of trouble is this?
I would like to ask the propaganda media of the Republic if they can not always be all kinds of bitter dramas, after all, it is not a positive thing, and it can sometimes even cause negative effects, so that young people who are interested in the defense industry can see that the work intensity of the industry is so great, and it is not for nothing that they will be discouraged in the end.
Therefore, after Wang Zhengguo has seen too much bitter propaganda, when he digs out the truth of the matter, he will find that all kinds of propaganda are simply full of loopholes. Instead of this, it is better to change the way of publicity, less bitter dramas, and more lofty, positive, and happy things, which is the normal path of the propaganda industry.
......
Wang Zhengguo's father works in the Imperial Capital Aviation Industry Department, and naturally lives in the family compound, but the father who originally served as the chief designer in Shudu, when he arrived in the imperial capital, he can only be regarded as average, and in terms of housing, he can only be assigned a set of relatively general housing, but fortunately, Wang Zhengguo's parents are two in the imperial capital, and there are no too high requirements for housing.
Seeing this home that he had never been to before, he racked his brains to search for relevant memories in his mind, but he couldn't find too much relevant information, even if it was Wang Zhengguo who was 83, he only came twice during the college holidays, and spent the rest of the time at that home in Shudu.
