Chapter 44: The Cornerstone of All Industry

Zou Yongdong was very excited, so excited that he still didn't believe that he had become the first batch of full-time part-time technical school students.

He doesn't think he's a particularly smart person, and his grades in school can only be said to be upper-middle. Of course, this has a lot to do with the fact that he was ignorant and playful before. His strength is good memory, primary school, middle school has a lot of knowledge is backrest, has a good memory, although the understanding is not strong, but every exam can always swing back and forth in the upper middle of the position.

If I had understood the importance of knowledge as I do now, and had been willing to work hard and study hard, I would have probably achieved much better grades.

When the People's Army was defeated in the past, when he retreated to Menghai with the crowd, he had nothing to do all day, so he recalled the textbooks he had studied back then to pass the time. Although his memory is not strong enough to memorize all the knowledge points one by one, he still has an impression.

In this exam, he took the junior high school exam, and he felt that he did not do well. The language is not bad, I scored 59 points in the test, and I passed by one point. In mathematics, because of the impression I had some time ago, I scored 51 points. Physics requires a certain understanding in addition to formulas, and the exam is fifty, which is slightly worse than mathematics. He hadn't learned chemistry well before, but this time it was a mess, with only twenty-five points.

Geography and biology are not bad, but they actually passed the passing line. But history is not good, the basic historical events are still roughly remembered, but the timeline is completely confused. The foreign language is even more unsightly, he has never learned any grammar, and he answered indiscriminately, barely getting seven points.

The total score is 351 points.

This grade was originally pressed to the ground by his father when he was in school, and he was beaten to death with a broom handle, but after not touching a book for many years, he felt that he had done his best.

The mapping test is only used to test the student's level once, and there is no ranking published on it, so everyone is given a thin report card.

At that time, he was very apprehensive and didn't know how this result was.

After checking the report card with other comrades-in-arms in the company, he was relieved: the fifth place in the company was also considered to be among the best.

Reassuring is reassuring, and this is also just because I am not too ashamed to be happy. After all, this is only a junior high school exam, and the questions are very simple. Even Zhang Hong, who scored the highest score of 72 points in the company's exam, didn't think it was a big deal, and if he changed the questions of the previous school and took the exam again, it is estimated that tens of thousands of candidates will be wiped out.

All in all, the ones who did well in this batch of exams can only be said to be looking for tall people among the short ones and using them to make trouble.

But I didn't expect that the above is looking for tall people, even if it's a tall man among short people!

The day after he got his transcript, he received a notice: to keep his military status and enter the newly established technical school for full-time study.

When he was excited to have a round with the others, he learned that the top 200 people in the engineering battalion had come.

After a conversation with the people selected from the field company and the educated youth students, they thoroughly understood the arrangement of the brigade headquarters: There are a total of 600 places for this full-time technical school study, including 300 in the field troops, 200 in their engineering battalions, and more than 12,000 educated youths, but only 100!

"We can't let our fighters shed blood and tears, they don't have enough knowledge to learn, they can't teach skills. It is our duty to arrange the best way out for the soldiers who are loyal to the troops and have made great contributions in bloody battles, so that they can get the rewards they deserve! "This is the secretary of the party branch of the newly established technical school student union, and the news from the inquiry is said to be the original words of the brigade commander!

All the warrior cadets were moved to tears, proud that they had such a chief who always thought about them, and proud of their status as warriors.

This word was quickly spread by the students, and the repercussions caused were even more astonishing.

The jealousy and dissatisfaction in the army were immediately subsided because some of the personnel were transferred, and every soldier felt that his future was secured, and thus settled down. In normal times, the soldiers have trained more diligently and consciously, and they have become more motivated to participate in night school studies, and the political work cadres of the company have generally found that their work is better done.

Externally, the words of the 291 Brigade are more prestigious, and the profession of warrior is more popular!

The field company left 300 soldiers, and naturally personnel were transferred from the engineering battalion to make up for the vacancy, which was equivalent to a 500 fewer men in the engineering battalion. But when the engineering battalion announced the recruitment of soldiers, more than 3,000 people came to sign up, including many educated youth students!

Everyone is not stupid, and there will be hardships to enter the army, and there may be casualties, but there is still an endless stream of applicants.

Why?

Summed up in two words: opportunity!

Everyone understands the policy of the 291 Brigade: give everyone a chance, but give more and better opportunities to those who are with the same heart as the troops!

Educated youth students will be allocated a high school degree, but if they want to get more upward paths, they will have to compete with more than 12,000 other educated youth students. And in the army, even in the engineering army, this opportunity will be available to people of a certain level.

Taking the training quota of this full-time technical school as an example, 12,000 educated youth trainees were admitted to 100 people, a proportion of 0.8 percent; Of the 3,100 members of the engineering battalion, 200 were admitted, or 6 percent; Of the 2,900 field companies, a total of 300 were admitted, and the proportion was magnified to 10.3 percent!

The greater the contribution, the greater the return, what else is there for everyone to hesitate about?

……

Zou Yongdong stood in the queue, holding his head up, his eyes not squinting, motionless.

It was the end of spring and the beginning of summer, and the weather was getting hotter, and although it was a cold mountainous area, the temperature had risen to 21 degrees. Especially when the sun is on his head, it is still a little hot on his body, and he sweats after standing for a while.

But no one in the queue talked nonsense, even the educated youth students had also practiced the basic queue, and they also gritted their teeth and persevered.

Because the head of the unit has not yet come.

Today is the opening day of the technical school, and Brigade Commander Guan has already informed him that he will personally come to preside over it. I don't know if it's because the leaders of the technical school are sycophants, half an hour in advance, they let the students stand in a queue at the gate of the technical school, waiting for the arrival of the chief.

"Sycophants!"

Zou Yongdong slandered in his stomach, he believed that Brigade Commander Guan, who loved soldiers like a son, would never put on such a stand, and it must be the leaders of the technical school who made their own decisions. If Brigade Commander Guan knew that they had asked the cadets to stand in line half an hour earlier just to welcome his arrival, he would definitely be furious.

He pursed his lips slightly, his eyes still looking straight ahead, but he used the corner of his eye to examine the technical school he was about to study here.

The name of the technical school is very simple, it is called the 291st Brigade Technical College.

The place is in another basin two small hills away from the power station, that is, the place where Mr. Ye Hanqing and they set foot in the green. Weeds have been uprooted, the ground has been leveled, and a layer of cement has been placed on the ground.

I heard that the technical school office, school, and training plant are still made of wood, and I heard that this is only a temporary facility, and when the new city school is built, it will be moved to a new campus with better conditions.

The wooden workshop is temporarily suitable for them, and the disadvantage is that the support strength is not enough, and the crane cannot be installed, and the workpiece handling will be more difficult.

All kinds of training equipment, in fact, were purchased before the 291st Brigade, a complete set of machinery of the small general-purpose machine tool factory, including fifty general-purpose small machine tools, five medium-sized machine tools, and a heavy lathe with a maximum processing length of 400 mm.

In addition, there is a full set of welder equipment, fitter equipment, a small heat treatment workshop, milling machine, grinding machine, boring machine, drilling machine and so on.

Just when Zou Yongdong and other students were waiting impatiently, Guan Fei, Zhang Shengguo, Sun Yaohua and other brigade leaders finally came over with Teacher Tang.

It's only a few minutes away from the brigade headquarters, and everyone walks here.

Guan Fei looked at the students standing in a queue from a distance, and then saw Yang Zhiyu, the interim principal of the technical school, standing at the front with a group of technical school leaders, and his face sank. Zhang Shengguo and the others also frowned, and Sun Yaohua had an expression that was about to explode.

Mr. Tang, when they looked at this meeting, what else did they not know, this situation in China is too common. However, when they saw the dark faces of Guan Fei and the others, they slowed down their pace in amusement and quickly fell behind.

Guan Fei quickened his pace, turned a blind eye to Yang Zhiyu and the others who came up, walked quickly to the front of the queue, stood still, and gave a military salute cleanly.

Sun Yaohua was the most anxious, and he didn't care about 3721 when he stepped forward, he raised his leg at Yang Zhiyu is kick, pointed at his nose and scolded: "Yang Zhiyu, you are out of breath!" Relying on a little power, he is here to be powerful! What do you think our 291 Brigade is? Ah, look at the sweat of your classmates, you yourself tell me how long you have been standing? ”

"I didn't ...... Not long after, we also just came out......" Yang Zhiyu was kicked over by him, and the root of his thigh was kicked so painfully that he didn't even dare to get up, trembling.

All the people had eyes, and when they saw Yang Zhiyu being ignored by the brigade commander and kicked over by the deputy brigade commander, their hearts were full of joy, not to mention how happy they were. It's just that no one dares to talk nonsense, and when they see Guan Fei coming, they salute everyone, and the soldiers in the army stand up and salute in return.

"Students, I'm sorry to have you standing here for so long!" Guan Fei's eyes swept and he said by name, "Zhang Chao, how long have you been standing?" ”

One of the fighters stepped forward and replied with a sense of puff: "Report! We've been here for forty-three minutes! Report complete! ”

Zhang Shengguo was angry, but he was not as impulsive as Sun Yaohua, he just raised his eyebrows and endured it.

"What about them?" Guan Fei raised his chin and pointed at Yang Zhiyu and other technical school leaders.

"Report to the chief, Principal Yang, they have arrived in seventeen minutes." Zhang Chao had already been secretly timed, and when he heard this, he hurriedly replied in a standard report tone.

"That's ......" Guan Fei turned his head and smiled at Yang Zhiyu, who was lying on the ground in cold sweat and didn't dare to get up, as well as the leaders of a technical school, "Principal Yang, it seems that you have to stand a little longer." Listen to my commands...... stand upright! ”

No matter what they thought, Yang Zhiyu got up from the ground as soon as he was excited, stood up straight with the other technical school leaders, and didn't dare to move.

When Guan Fei recruited former People's Party cadres, Yang Zhiyu and other middle- and low-level cadres, and senior cadres at and above the regimental level politely refused on the grounds that they were of low rank and insufficient authority.

After these middle- and low-level cadres came, they were sent by Guan Fei to preside over civil affairs work.

There are no more than 10,000 people in the 291 Brigade defense area, and most of them are poor. Guan Fei did not let them collect taxes or collect taxes, so they were basically idle, and after the brigade headquarters decided to send cadres stationed in the villages, they had to work hard to go to the countryside to station.

The establishment of the technical school this time and the transfer of some civil affairs cadres are obviously of great use. Yang Zhiyu and others were very grateful, and in order to shoot Guan Feima's fart, they came up with such a trick. Unexpectedly, the horse's fart slapped the horse's hooves, which made them lose a big ugly face in front of the students on the first day of the establishment of the technical school.

They also have a certain military foundation, and now that they have been ordered to stand upright, they can still maintain a standard standing posture, with the middle fingers of both hands pressed against the seams of their trousers, and they dare not complain.

"You have stood for twenty-six minutes less than the students, and you can dismiss if you make up these twenty-six minutes!" Guan Fei smiled and said.

He won't embarrass these people too much, and he will punish them a little and let them remember them for a long time. These people are also cadres who he has repeatedly investigated, taken the initiative to get closer to him, is quite hardworking, and has a certain amount of experience.

really wiped their positions, and they couldn't find a more suitable person to replace them. It's better to continue to retain, with their own warnings, I believe they will know how to behave better.

"Other students, let's move to the factory, where it's shady."

Driven by him, the trainees happily left the flat ground and moved to the temporary factory. Sun Yaohua glared at Yang Zhiyu and the others fiercely, followed Guan Fei, and entered the factory, leaving several technical school leaders standing alone in the sun, sweating.

Guan Fei saw that the cement floor that had not been worked on was very clean, and simply asked everyone to sit on the ground, so that they didn't have to be so tired from standing. As for himself, he has always maintained a strict military posture, facing everyone, Zhang Shengguo and they naturally will not sit, standing on both sides of him with their hands behind their backs.

"Today is a big day for our 291 Brigade! Of course, for some reason, your leaders need to come in late, but that doesn't stop you from the importance of this day! ”

Guan Fei's humorous words made the students below laugh.

"Our junior high school and high school have already started, why do we have to transfer you out and set up this technical school?" Guan Fei didn't need the students to answer, he gave his own answer, "The reason is very clear to you, that is, this technical school is very important!" ”

The eyes of the students below lit up.

When they were selected, they felt that this was a big deal, and the technical school must have a very high status in the eyes of the troops. Now it has been personally recognized by the top commander of the 291st Brigade, who is even more proud to be a member of the technical school.

"We human beings, from the era of competition of all things, have developed step by step to today, with a high degree of civilization, there is only one reason: we have further developed from learning to use tools to making our own tools and transforming the world through tools!

Throughout the history of human civilization, manufacturing is the cornerstone of the development of our civilization! In the past, present, and even in the future, manufacturing is the most fundamental foundation of all industrial existence, it can be said in a nutshell, without manufacturing, there is no industrial civilization, and there is no foothold for our human beings!

And you are the hope that will support all our construction in the future! Our tomorrow is not in our leading cadres, nor in how much advanced equipment has been purchased, but in you! You are now seeds, and you still need more nutrients to be carefully watered and cultivated, but I sincerely hope that you will grow into towering trees that stand up to the sky and support us in the future! ”

Wow!

Warm applause sounded in the factory, and after the reverberation and resonance of the wooden structure workshop, the sound became more and more agitated.
