[88] Iron and steel plant construction progress

Xiaoqiang washed his face and brushed his teeth after breakfast, got into the Ford car driven by the driver Liu Zhen and came to Zhongnanhai, checked the documents and entered the six places, and was not late, it was exactly half past seven, he trotted all the way into his office, which was just sat down, and was notified by his colleagues to go to the conference room for the morning meeting of the secretariat. As soon as Xiao Qiang arrived at the door of the conference room, he was stopped by Secretary Yang, who pulled Xiao Qiang to the far side of the secluded corridor and said complainingly:

"Xiaoqiang, didn't you just come back last night? Why don't you take a good rest, get up so early to come to work, Minister Li informed me early in the morning, and asked me to let you have a good rest. ”

Xiaoqiang laughed.

Seeing him like this, Secretary Yang also nodded with a smile, and paused: "You don't have to attend the regular morning meeting, the chairman instructed you to report to him as soon as you come back to work." ”

Xiao Qiang blurted out with some surprise: "What's the matter?" ”

Secretary Yang said: "It must be a matter of work, you will know if you go, you can go quickly, ah, I will go to the meeting." ”

Xiaoqiang hurriedly walked out of the office building in three steps and two steps, crossing the small bridge by the lotus pool, the winter pool water was frozen, reflecting the bright morning sun into a dazzling color. When Xiaoqiang walked on the lakeside path, he began to get a little nervous, and at this moment, he had finally just entered the state of work, and remembered that he had something to report to the chairman.

When he came to Juxiang Bookstore, it happened that Yujian's old acquaintance Li Yinqiao was on duty, and Xiaoqiang asked while taking out his documents: "Yinqiao, is the chairman here?" I will report back to the Chair. Li Yinqiao is the chairman's chief guard, and when he saw Xiaoqiang coming, he hurriedly beckoned Xiaoqiang to go in and said, "The chairman is taking a walk in the yard after breakfast." ”

Xiaoqiang entered the courtyard and saw that the chairman was wearing a half-new cyan sweater, and a navy blue cotton jacket was casually put on the outside, and the buttons were only casually buttoned in the middle two, and he was smoking a cigarette at this time, pacing around a few pine trees in the yard. Xiao Qiang then walked to the side and waited, the chairman obviously had some worries, and slowly paced and pondered in the bluestone paved yard, and only after a circle did he notice that Xiao Qiang was coming.

The chairman was obviously in a much better mood after seeing Xiaoqiang, and joked with a smile: "Our big engineer is here, you see that I was only thinking about things, and I didn't even notice it." Silverbridge, you didn't remind me. ”

Xiaoqiang hurriedly smiled and said, "Good morning, chairman, I also just arrived, and I didn't bother you when I saw that you were exercising." ”

The chairman smiled and nodded, and beckoned Xiaoqiang and said, "I have something to do with you, let's go, let's go into the house and talk." ”

Walking into the chairman's study, Xiaoqiang rushed to help Li Yinqiao serve tea and pour water, just like he had arrived at his own home, but Li Yinqiao hurriedly said no. Seeing this, the chairman smiled and said: "Yinqiao, Xiaoqiang is his own family, if he likes to do it, let him do it, I think he has memorized my tea, and wants to put more for himself." As soon as he finished speaking, all three of them burst into laughter.

After pouring the tea, only the chairman and Xiaoqiang were left in the room, and the chairman asked Xiaoqiang with concern: "How are you doing recently?" I see you're a little pale. ”

Xiaoqiang was grateful: "Chairman Xiexie cares, every time I come back, I have a supplementary blood transfusion, and my health is fine." ”

The chairman looked at him and nodded: "Well, you still have to pay more attention, the body is the capital of the revolution, young people should exercise more, don't stay at home all the time, wait for the beginning of spring, I will take you to climb Xiangshan, let's call Mr. Zhu and the prime minister together, and give him a day off." ”

"Yes! Chairman. Xiaoqiang looked at the chairman and excitedly agreed.

The chairman looked at Xiaoqiang and said: "Xiaoqiang, the steel plant equipment you brought last time, after our experts from the Northeast Bureau estimated, as long as the construction tools and materials are sufficient, the blast furnace can be erected by the end of May and start to produce iron, but to produce steel, you have to wait for another half a year, this is until the end of the year, I really can't wait, you say, is there a way to speed up this?" ”

Xiaoqiang said solemnly: "The construction speed is already very fast, I didn't expect that these builders can only rely on drawings and materials, and it only takes half a year to build the blast furnace, I don't know if the tower lifting equipment I brought is enough?" And the five sets of welding tools for construction, have the technicians been trained? ”

As he was talking, he heard a knock on the door, and the chairman answered, and the prime minister pushed the door in. Xiaoqiang hurriedly stood up and greeted: "Good morning, Prime Minister." ”

The prime minister sat on the side of Xiao Qiang on the three-person sofa, smiled and joked: "Don't be polite to me, you see me come in, and I didn't be polite to the chairman." ”

The chairman looked at the prime minister and said: "We are discussing, whether the construction speed of the steel plant can be accelerated, I am still a little anxious, many places in the country are still using wooden farm tools, all places are shouting for steel, cement, rubber, mainly steel, this is the big head." ”

The prime minister nodded, and said to Xiaoqiang: "I just heard Xiaoqiang talk about the construction equipment outside the door, I want to say, Xiaoqiang, these construction equipment you brought is indeed very good, but it is too little, our engineering personnel of the Northeast Bureau applied, hoping to have another 10 to 20 hoisting towers, more than 50 sets of welding equipment." There are also refractory bricks, to tell you the truth, we are even preparing to remove the refractory bricks used in the blast furnace of the abandoned steel plant in Northeast China, and the gap is very large. ”

Xiaoqiang hurriedly said: "Prime minister, don't worry, these are small money, I will ship them when I go back, and please tell your comrades not to use those old refractory bricks, we should still put quality in the first place in this project." ”

The prime minister said with satisfaction: "I am relieved to have your words, you remember, the engineering accessories and construction equipment should be as much as possible, the comrades below reflect that the construction of this blast furnace is very difficult, if it is not for the hoisting tower and welding tools and other equipment provided by you, then it will not be able to be built at all." Xiaoqiang, you still think about the problem very thoroughly, in the future, you have to do the project, not only to buy equipment, but also to buy enough construction equipment.

Xiaoqiang thought for a while and said sincerely: "Prime Minister, you are reminding me euphemistically, I am really touched by your feelings of being so concerned about me, everyone treats me as their own family, and I should not let go of my mistakes easily." Chairman, Prime Minister, I'm really sorry, I don't need you to say, it seems that the current construction period has been delayed due to mistakes in my work, and I have overestimated the level of construction in the 1950's. I heard the seller say that there is no construction difficulty at all in the drawings of the 5 million tons of iron and steel complex, and there are several such small steel mills in China, which is a very mature small iron and steel enterprise program, he said that this blast furnace is five 1000 cubic meters of joint type, the construction speed is fast, and the construction difficulty is zero, I believe it. In 2011, the volume of a single blast furnace in the large steel mill exceeded 5,000 cubic meters, and the construction difficulty of this 1,000 cubic blast furnace did not exist at all. Fortunately, I was a little uneasy at the time, so I purchased an iron tower, five sets of electric welding and some construction equipment from a construction company......"

The prime minister patted Xiaoqiang on the shoulder and said: "I didn't mean to criticize you, in fact, this blames me for not doing a good job as the prime minister, the preparation is not solid enough, the task is not detailed enough, it is I who should be reviewed, Xiaoqiang, you have done a good job, in case you don't think of it, don't bring those construction equipment here, we don't know what to do here." ”

The chairman smiled and pointed at the two of them and said, "You see that you all regard me here as a review room, do you want me to join in the fun and review?" Saying that, the chairman laughed loudly, and he continued: "But Xiaoqiang's consciousness is very high, you have such an awareness, the prime minister and I are very pleased, you do things, I am very relieved." ”

The prime minister pinched Xiaoqiang's shoulder, smiled and said: "Xiaoqiang, although you can rest assured, the construction has only started for less than a month, and the progress has not been delayed, these problems are also raised by our engineering personnel when reviewing the drawings, you must not blame yourself for this, if that happens, I, the prime minister, will be even more uneasy." ”
