Chapter Sixty-Eight: This Is Our Time

On August 20, the precision machine tool factory and the precision instrument factory held a grand official completion ceremony.

The main leaders of the military sub-district were all present, and He Tao participated in and presided over the ribbon-cutting ceremony as a special guest.

As a social practice class, under the organization of the school, all the students were also present to observe. Fourteen thousand educated youth trainees formed ten huge phalanxes in the open space in front of the two factories that were about to be opened.

In front of them, there was a slightly smaller horizontal phalanx, which was the 2,000 newly recruited general workers.

In front of the general workers, there were 200 small phalanx of technical school students wearing blue uniforms.

Kong Lingchen stood excitedly in the first row of the phalanx, looking at the magnificent factory façade in front of him, and then at the black crowd behind him, his heart was surging.

Since last week, the technical school has talked to them individually, introduced the scale, equipment, and work content of the machine tool factory and instrument factory, and then asked them to go back and think carefully about which factory they would like to work in. He spent two days thinking carefully, then went to the recruit training base, called out Xue Zhen, asked for her opinion, and finally chose the precision machine tool factory.

In his opinion, there is also the word precision, but as the mother of industry, it is obvious that the weight of the machine tool factory is heavier. And he thinks that his technology is the most outstanding among the same batch of students, and only the precision machine tool factory is the place where he can give full play to his personal strengths.

On the way here, he overheard the students who were still studying in the school, full of envy and jealousy for their first batch of technical school students, and felt even more fortunate and proud that he was so lucky.

He quietly touched the blue uniform on his body, and a great sense of satisfaction welled up in his heart.

This dress is much better looking than the green military uniform of the hammer, it is very close-fitting, and the texture is excellent, it is said to be made of imported denim fabric, which is extremely durable. He remembered that when he wore this blue overalls to find Xue Zhen, the envious eyes along the way, as well as Xue Zhen's surprise, admiration, and eager expression when he saw it, all made him feel that he had not lived in vain in this life.

It was this blue overalls that clearly separated them from the rest of the people, giving him a unique sense of superiority.

Behind them, the two thousand newly recruited general workers have not yet been issued with uniforms. They must first go through a month of military training to cultivate their discipline and obedience, and then they must go through a short month of training in a technical school to learn the basic work skills before they can take up their posts.

As for the school students in the back, it will be a longer wait. They have to complete the junior high school course, and then go through the high school course training, and pass the examination before they can be assigned to various enterprises. Of course, if they are willing to learn and can endure hardships, they can also shorten the time in school by taking the initiative to sign up for cross-level exams at the end of each school year.

I think that after today's stimulation, they will study harder and harder.

Not to mention them, it was Kong Lingchen, who felt a sense of excitement when he saw the beautiful factory in front of him.

The tall and thick walls of the factory are both dignified and beautiful, and there is a sense of heaviness when it looks like it.

The gate of the factory is not as general as in China, with two fence doors or large iron gates installed at will, but a metal automatic retractable door with a very exquisite appearance. The sliding door is made of pure stainless steel with a chrome finish that shines in the sun.

Behind the telescopic door, there is a long strip of granite lying on the flower bed, and the top is engraved in the way of engraving, writing "Precision Machine Tool Factory of the First Army Division", and the font is vigorous and powerful.

Looking beyond the factory nameplate is a spacious cement clearing, and behind the clearing, a ten-story building. The building is both tall and wide, standing in front of you, like a giant standing up to the sky, blocking the eyes of outsiders from peeping into the internal factory area.

But just like that, it's enough for outsiders to be envious.

Such a huge building, not to mention here, is also a high-rise building in China, and can be used as a landmark building in the city.

What could be more fascinating?

In front of him, a wide, but not long, red carpet was laid, and in the middle of it was a podium, where the ceremony was held and the chief spoke.

And he is facing the rostrum!

They didn't have to wait long, and the chiefs who presided over the opening ceremony walked out of the factory office building. At the front, wearing a military uniform and carrying a pistol at his waist, Guan Fei, the supreme head of the military sub-district, looked extremely happy today, with a smile on his face, talking and laughing with a strange old man, and sometimes waving his arms.

Kong Lingchen stared at Guan Fei tightly, his eyes full of admiration.

This is his idol!

This person, with his own strength, led all the people in the military sub-region to create an almost impossible miracle from the wasteland where there was nothing, so that tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in the military sub-region could no longer go hungry, and even more created a bright road with an infinite future.

Everyone in the military sub-district was grateful to him and admired him, and some even proposed to make his portrait badge to wear on his chest, but this proposal was quickly stopped by Guan Fei himself.

Kong Lingchen worked hard to improve his operation skills in the technical school, and he saw many ordinary people under the glamorous appearance, more real Guan Fei. He was a very amiable person, and although he was the highest head of the military division, he never put on a show in the face of the students who asked him for advice, and he always patiently explained to them. From the theory, to each specific technical action essentials, operating know-how, he all unreservedly taught, than the domestic invited with a group of rich work experience, but lack of theoretical knowledge of the master, explained in more detail, the context is clear, people suddenly understand when they listen to it.

And he is often in the Seiko workshop, silently operating the machine tool alone, working for a few hours, more than ten hours!

Guan Fei did not go around proclaiming how capable he was, how much he thought about the military division, and how hard he worked, but he just silently buried himself in serious work. Kong Lingchen more than once, in the dead of night and when everything was silent, he saw him quietly lock the door of the workshop and leave quietly.

He is deeply proud to be a soldier under him, and under his leadership, he is deeply proud to create a more brilliant tomorrow for the military division!

On the rostrum, all the principal cadres of the military sub-district were in place, and everyone had a happy smile on their faces.

This is the first batch of enterprises that have been built from scratch in the military sub-district.

They are happy, not only that these two factories have been completed and can be put into use, but more importantly, the grand blueprint drawn by Guan Fei for everyone, with the joint efforts of all commanders and fighters and the masses, has now become a reality!

Sun Yaohua's expression was the most excited, he had always been emotional, but his eyes were a little moist at the moment. He kept trying to restrain himself, clasping his hands together, very hard, very hard, so that he would not cry.

Zhang Shengguo's face was as calm as one, but under the calm appearance, there was also great joy that seemed to break out of his chest.

When Guan Fei formulated the construction plan, they actually had deep doubts, but out of trust in Guan Fei, they chose to support it without regrets. Seeing that the military division has come to this day step by step under their hard work, this sense of accomplishment of creating happiness with his own hands makes him feel like he is drunk, smoky and intoxicated.

It is not easy to come by today, and everyone has a common answer to who is the greatest hero.

When Guan Fei invited He Tao to come forward to give a speech, he humbly refused and resolutely pushed Guan Fei to the microphone.

The 200 technical school students, the 2,000 newly recruited general workers, and the 14,000 trainee phalanx on the rostrum and below all sounded as warm applause as waves proved that everyone silently supported and recognized him for his first speech.

This is the honor he deserves!

Guan Fei didn't shirk anymore, he stood on the stage, looking at the tens of thousands of excited eyes below, and there were countless words in his heart that he wanted to say. He felt a little choked in his throat, and tried to adjust his emotions for a while before he spoke, and said his first sentence: "Today is a happy day, because we rely on our own hands to make the picture a reality!" ”

Oh!

This was like a signal, and a huge cheer suddenly sounded, and everyone, regardless of the technical school students, or the students who were still studying the junior high school curriculum, and even the newly recruited general workers, were cheering.

In the middle of this, the 500 ordinary workers recruited from China did not have a sense of participation in the construction themselves, but the others, even those who had been studying in the school, had witnessed how the military sub-district had come to this day in a first-hand way.

They used to be educated youths, and when they first went to the mountains and went to the countryside, they left the city without hesitation and came to the countryside with difficult conditions with the ideal of creating a better tomorrow.

Years of suffering have left them mentally exhausted, but at this moment, they have relived the passion of rekindling their old ideals.

In the phalanx, many female intellectuals with rich feelings left tears that couldn't tell whether they were joy or what.

After the tears flow, their hearts will become purer and clearer.

This is an opportunity to say goodbye to the old ideals and re-establish new ones, and at this moment, they are not only witnessing history, but also participating in it!

Guan Fei was on the stage, slightly excited, his speech was not very exciting, but every sentence would attract countless cheers from the audience. Those young people who are still studying in school have also seen their bright future through the successful completion of these two factories.

Everyone is cheering for Guan Fei, for the military division, and even more for themselves.

It had been said countless times, but it was only at this moment that they really found that feeling, and that was – this is their time!

As Guan Fei and He Tao cut the red silk ribbon with scissors, the cheers reached the peak when the flowers fell on the tray. People shouted and laughed and cried with all their strength to welcome the arrival of a new era.

At the door of the factory, Guan Fei held up a special copper brick and solemnly stuffed it into the front doorpost, which was specially set aside for the vacancy.

In the external part of the bronze brick, the time of this moment is inscribed: August 20, 1977.

Countless people can no longer restrain their emotions and burst into tears.

(Well, I've been thinking about how to speed up the pace, but I haven't found a chance yet, so I've messed up my mind, sad.) Today's chapter was written and deleted, deleted and written, deleted and written, and I was a little exhausted, and it was too late to write the second chapter, sorry)
