CHAPTER XXVI
Compared with the soldiers, taking away thousands of Jishu workers and teenagers with better potential is a greater harvest in Hu Weidong's mind. In order to persuade them to go with him, Hu Weidong's discipline fell to the ground, and all the tricks were used to abduct and deceive, and for some talents who he was determined to win but refused to listen to persuasion, Hu Weidong even took coercive measures, even if he was kidnapped, he would kidnap them. "Xiucai meets soldiers, and it is unreasonable." In order to avoid being collapsed by the Red Army division commander who behaved more like bandits, the Jishu backbones of the major industrial and mining enterprises in Pingxiang had to roll up their bunks in despair and board this unpredictable thief ship with their families
For Hu Weidong's domineering approach, many old revolutionaries, including He Huzi, couldn't stand it, but Hu Weidong said with a heartfelt remark, "In order to build China's big industry, I have no other choice, if I leave them behind, these people will probably be satisfied with earning money to support their families for the rest of their lives, but under my organization, they can become the founders of China's industrialization." China, including the three eastern provinces that have fallen, does not have more than a million industrial workers in the heavy industrial sector, while in the West there are hundreds of millions, which means that according to the normal model, they will be engaged in scientific research hundreds of times faster than ours! If we take into account the disparity in quality, it is even more desperate, and the only way for us to quickly catch up with the West is to concentrate a limited number of talents to focus on tackling key problems in certain fields like the Soviet Union, so we must not waste every talent, every bit of time! ”
"Then we should also take the way of persuasion and education, how can we be like bandits", although He Huzi knew that what Hu Weidong said was not unreasonable, his brows were still tightly furrowed.
"These jishu workers don't have a low income, just by lip service, who is willing to risk losing their heads to follow us?" , Hu Weidong asked rhetorically.
He Huzi sighed and was silent.
"Don't worry, Old He, if the central government is held accountable, it's all on me." , Hu Weidong said with a smile.
He Huzi immediately blew his beard and glared at him, "How can this work?" ”
Although Hu Weidong was stubborn, he still listened to some of He Huzi's words, after all, now the independent division may be involved in the battle at any time, and ensuring military victory is the first place, if the independent division is scattered, it is useless to bring more technicians, but it will cost him his life in vain. Therefore, although Hu Weidong was very reluctant in his heart, he still reluctantly left behind those technicians who were old and weak and could not keep up with the team, and whose children could not travel far because of age or physical reasons, and only took away more than 1,000 technicians, dozens of experts, and thousands of potential teenagers with a certain cultural foundation and ingenuity. Among them, those teenagers were only selected by Hu Weidong for his future plans, and he did not have time to educate himself for the time being, but when Hu Weidong browsed the list, he unexpectedly saw a thunderous name - "Wu Yunduo"
"Yes, how did I forget, it seems that this year Grandpa Wu was forced to follow his father to escape to Daye, Hubei because of the layoffs in Anyuan Coal Mine, it seems that I am lucky, if I come a little late, I don't know when I will meet", Hu Weidong patted his thigh and said, because the name "Wu Yunduo" is not common, coupled with his unique face shape, Hu Weidong immediately confirmed that this young man who is still a little shy is the "China Baoer" who later became known as Shijie
This young miner, who had only a fourth-grade education at the beginning, relied on simple tools to manufacture a high-quality rifle in the third month after entering the New Fourth Army Arsenal in history, and a year later, he became the backbone of the military industry of the New Fourth Army, and two or three years later became one of the most outstanding figures in the red military industry. Otherwise, with his outstanding talent and rare diligence in the world, he is very promising to become a first-class military industry bull in Shijie. …,
For Wu Yunduo, a genius with great potential in the application of science and technology, Hu Weidong's educational method is to let him learn while practicing, understand the subjects and specific content he needs to learn through practice, and then apply them in practice after studying for a period of time to test the results of his learning, if he still can't do it, he will continue to study, until the project is completed, during which there are really insurmountable difficulties before he can come to himself for advice, so as to cultivate his habit of independent thinking. This kind of education (learning) method is the successful experience of great inventors such as Watt and Kalashnikov in history, and it is almost like tailor-made for Wu Yunduo, who is stronger in practice than in theory, so that he has grown rapidly into a first-class military expert at an astonishing speed
Hu Weidong took away not only people, but also a large amount of wealth, materials and industrial equipment from Pingxiang, although the mines, railways and arsenals are really not the same number, but Hu Weidong was still able to rely on his many years of military experience to find out the machinery and equipment and even parts that the arsenal might use. What's more, what Hu Weidong wants to build is not just an arsenal, but a complete industrial system with it as the core, so machinery such as railways and mining itself is actually useful, provided that it can be taken away
In the process of handling and disassembling the equipment, Wu Yunduo, who had just learned mechanical drawing, showed an innate unique talent, he actually memorized the fine structure of several most important pieces of equipment in his mind, and then disassembled them into various parts that one person could carry and took them away, until he found a stable foothold and then reassembled these machines by himself by memories, and scared a person on the spot. Only then did Hu Weidong understand that it was not all a lie when people called Wu Yunduo "what kind of guns and bullets can be made at a glance".
However, this talent alone can only be a "king of cottages" at most, and because the Chinese material industry in this period is extremely backward, it is not enough to just draw a scoop according to the gourd, because many times we have to use alternative materials with much worse performance, so the mechanical mechanism must be adjusted to adapt to this change, otherwise it is inevitable that there will be various safety accidents. Therefore, for Wu Yunduo, metallurgy, chemistry, machinery, mathematics, materials and many other related disciplines can not be left behind, and the weight of the academic burden far exceeds the so-called "test-oriented education" in later generations (in fact, China's academic burden is heavier than that of Western countries, Japan, South Korea and Maozi Eastern Europe are heavier than ours, the problem of China's exam-oriented education is actually that the amount of knowledge is small and the questions are difficult to do, forcing students to use their brains to solve problems and other clever things), but for Wu Yunduo, who is extremely studious, But it's fun
