It was drizzling and cloudy.

On a small hillside in the northern part of Bandon Island.

In front of an unnamed tombstone built last year, Li Qingye placed a bouquet of white chrysanthemums on a stone platform and filled three wine glasses with green plum wine.

The sound of ticking rain is the only sound at the moment.

Filip, who was standing behind Li Qingye, held an umbrella dutifully.

Today is April 4, 20, the Qingming Festival of the lunar calendar.

Standing in front of the tombstone, Li Qingye, who had been silent for more than ten minutes, put away the sadness in his eyes, and he turned around: "Go back!" ”

Meanwhile.

In one of the Donghua Group's factories in Pengcheng, all employees are working overtime.

Kong Zhaolin, who was entrusted with the important task by Wu Heguang, was holding a meeting in the office of the factory at this time.

"Li Gong, how is the situation of the equipment now?"

The thin middle-aged man rubbed his temples: "It's almost there, the conversion system, synthesis system, secondary transfer system, and control system of the synthetic ammonia production line are all in place, and the final inspection will be done today, and the factory test can be carried out tomorrow or the day after tomorrow." ”

"Great, it's not easy!" Kong Zhaolin breathed a sigh of relief.

Don't look at the nearly two months before the delivery date, a complete set of synthetic ammonia production line can be disassembled, subassembled, transported, and assembled in the factory after parts production and customization, component assembly, complete machine assembly, and complete machine testing.

Although Kaile requested that the equipment be transported to the Luzon plant in June this year, Donghua Group would be given three months to install and debug it.

But the time is still too tight.

As the chief engineer, Li Xinyi is so busy these days that his feet don't touch the ground, and he is forced by this construction period.

At the same time, he was also very dissatisfied with Kong Zhaolin and Wu Heguang in his heart, and in order to grab the contract, he set the deadline so tightly.

Kong Zhaolin also saw Li Xinyi's exhaustion and dissatisfaction, and hurriedly comforted: "Li Gong has worked hard, I will ask the company to hold a celebration banquet for everyone when I go back, and the bonus is absolutely indispensable." ”

"Hehe, thank you so much, Vice President Kong." Li Xinyi still understands some people and worldliness to some extent.

After chatting about work, the two went to the test site to inspect together.

Such equipment was supposed to be installed at the factory, and then, through commissioning and commissioning, if there were no problems, it could be delivered to the factory, and if there were problems, the equipment manufacturer needed to solve the problem.

It's just that Kaile Company in Luzon, if the previous plan is adopted, the construction time of the entire project will be at least doubled.

Therefore, Donghua Group can only choose to manufacture the whole product first, test it in its own site, and then disassemble and transport it to the factory in Luzon for reassembly and commissioning.

Kong Zhaolin and Li Xinyi inspected it and found that there was no problem.

"Li Gong, let's have a trial run tomorrow!"

Li Xinyi nodded: "Yes, after all, many problems cannot be seen without actual testing." ”

This is also the reason why Kong Zhaolin hurriedly prepared for the test, because time waits for no one, from Pengcheng Railway to Haizhou Port, and then from Haizhou Port to Manila, the whole process takes about 20~25 days, which is almost a month.

It's April 4th, and the time left for them is only a month.

Within a month, they had to complete the commissioning, commissioning, and resolution of any problems that might exist, and then disassemble and pack them up, which was obviously very tight.

Kong Zhaolin, who was worried about the problem, even arranged for security guards to be stationed 24 hours a day.

That same evening.

In a brightly lit test ground.

More than a dozen cockroaches entered the core parts of the equipment from the corners and crevices one after another.

The goal of these little things is very clear, staring directly at the radiation section of a reformer, and there are hundreds of reformer tubes in the radiation section.

The inside of the reformer tube is filled with a special catalyst, and the inside of the pipe is mainly a reaction link with hydrocarbons and water vapor.

The outside of the pipeline is a heating furnace, usually the operating temperature will reach 900~950 degrees Celsius, the pressure inside the pipeline is about 4Mpa, and the operating conditions are relatively harsh.

After the cockroach burrows into the furnace, it begins to cling to the surface of the conversion tube, releasing a stream of mucus, which is a special acid that can destroy the alloy lattice structure by absorbing the carbon in the alloy steel.

After more than five hours of corrosion, more than a dozen weak spots with a diameter of about one centimeter appeared in the conversion tube.

The cockroaches who completed the task quickly returned the same way.

The next day, in the morning.

Li Xinyi and Kong Zhaolin both came to the remote control room of the test site.

"Let's get started!"

"Yes, Li Gong."

Workers quickly poured in the raw materials and then began to electrify and ventilate.

The people in the test site have been evacuated, after all, this kind of test is risky, even Li Xinyi, who is full of confidence, does not dare to stay in the test site.

Anyway, now that automation and inspection technology can be used, remote control can be used, so no one wants to stay in the test site.

"Pressure 1.5......"

"Pressure 2......"

"Start injecting ......"

With the injection of water vapor and hydrocarbons, the natural gas in the outside furnace is blazing, causing the temperature and air pressure inside the reformer tube to rise rapidly.

At first, there were no anomalies.

Until the 13th minute, under the devastation of high temperature and high pressure, four of the weak points on the wall of the conversion tube cracked.

Poof......

The mixture of water vapor and hydrocarbons at high temperature and high pressure is quickly ignited by the flame of the heating furnace.

Rumble......

The terrifying explosion directly tore through the entire heating furnace and conversion furnace, and affected the shell of the synthesis furnace not far away.

What's even worse is that the gas pipeline of the heating furnace is broken.

"Damn! Turn off the gas! Li Xinyi yelled with a pale face.

Employees who have just woken up from a dream are in a hurry to close the air valve, feeding valve, and pulverized coal injection valve.

At the same time, the emergency system was activated and the flames were extinguished.

It's just that at this critical juncture, Li Xinyi and Kong Zhaolin sat paralyzed with bloodless faces, and they were not in the mood to care about firefighting at all.

"It's over! We're finished! Kong Zhaolin muttered to himself.

Li Xinyi was also depressed.

If it is other small problems, then it can be repaired, the problem is that now the entire transformation system has been scrapped, and other systems have also been damaged to varying degrees, this kind of big problem is not at all something that can be solved in a week or two.

Not to mention remanufacturing, just investigating the cause of the accident is enough for them to be busy.

Half an hour later, the flames were extinguished, and the damage was preliminarily estimated.

Looking at the converted furnace and heating furnace that were blown up in front of him, Li Xinyi trembled his lips and said, "Vice President Kong, this synthetic ammonia production line has been scrapped. ”

"I ...... I ......" Kong Zhaolin almost went into cardiac arrest: "Huhu...... What to do? ”

"Vice President Kong, let's notify the chairman as soon as possible!" Another executive reminded.

Kong Zhaolin, who has no owner of the six gods, took out his mobile phone but did not make a call.

Obviously, he doesn't know how to report it now, Wu Heguang gave him this important task just to train him as a successor, and now he has messed things up, which makes Kong Zhaolin not have the courage to tell Wu Heguang about it.

And others didn't dare to make their own claims, after all, this matter naturally had to be topped by the highest position on the scene.

Kong Zhaolin took a deep breath, and finally dialed Wu Heguang's phone.

"Hey...... Zhaolin? What's the matter? ”

"Uncle! ……”

Wu Heguang, who was on the other side of the phone, heard this title, and immediately felt that something was wrong, usually Kong Zhaolin rarely called him uncle on the phone or on formal occasions.

"What's wrong?"

“……”
