Chapter 454: Coming to the Destination
"Secretary Li is on a plane for the first time?"
In the cargo compartment of the propeller transporter, which leaks air and light everywhere, more than a dozen simple seats are arranged at this moment.
Li Weidong clutched the seat tightly with both hands, and his face was a little pale.
His appearance is by no means a disguise, but a real fear.
In his previous life, Li Weidong didn't remember that he had the habit of airsickness, could it be because of this body?
After taking off from the plane, he found that there was an inexplicable panic in his heart, the uncontrollable kind, as if the transport plane under him would disintegrate at any time.
This time, he was the assistant secretary of Meng Dongqing, director of the Major Equipment Division.
In addition to him and Meng Dongqing, as well as the special operations team as security personnel, there were three middle-aged men and an old man.
All of them were experts in the chemical field, and this time they were ordered to go over there and inspect the batch of chemical equipment and make an evaluation.
So their identities are all real.
And without them knowing, they also became 'accomplices' to cover for Li Weidong.
At this moment, the person who came back to talk to Li Weidong was the old expert in his sixties, with gray hair but good health, and when he introduced it before, Li Weidong remembered the other party's name, Xu Yuanshan.
"Yes, for the first time."
Li Weidong reluctantly replied.
Because there is so much noise in the cabin, you have to talk loudly to each other.
Hearing his words, several experts in the front row also turned around and smiled at him in a friendly manner.
"Don't be afraid, don't look at this thing shivering, but it's sturdy."
Xu Yuanshan said, and also pounded the cabin hard.
Suddenly, one of the rivets above popped out.
For a moment, Li Weidong felt that his soul was about to go out of his body, and a dense layer of cold sweat appeared in his brain.
It's an instinct for danger.
Even, it is precisely because of Li Weidong's strong spiritual perception that he can more and more experience that dangerous feeling, and then feed it back to the top.
To put it bluntly, the more powerful a person is, the more radical he reacts when he cannot guarantee his safety.
This is the case with Li Weidong.
He is confident that on the ground, he will not be afraid of even the number of enemies.
But now that he is at high altitude, the transport plane under his feet looks like it is about to fall apart at any time, so it is strange that he can feel a sense of security.
No matter how good he is, as long as he can't fly, falling down is death.
"Ahem, it's okay, there's a lot of this thing, it's not a big problem to drop one or two."
Xu Yuanshan didn't expect that his two hammers would be so powerful, so his old face turned red.
Fortunately, everyone was shivering with cold, so they didn't notice anything unusual about him.
"Be careful."
Li Weidong reminded him stubbornly.
At this moment, Meng Congwei, who was beside him, got up and went to the front.
Although Li Weidong was a little puzzled, he didn't ask.
After a few minutes, I saw Meng Congwei coming back with an umbrella bag.
"Secretary Li, try it on your back."
Meng Congwei said, then gave the umbrella bag to Li Weidong on his back, and explained how to open it.
The people around him all showed strange eyes.
Even Meng Dongqing tried his best to maintain a serious expression.
Compared with those experts, he knows Li Weidong well, and after reading many of Li Weidong's materials, it is really hard to imagine that Li Weidong's tiger on land has turned into a sick cat when he reaches the sky.
And looking at that appearance, it was obviously not pretending, which was really much beyond his expectations.
It can be regarded as knowing the other side of the other party.
After Li Weidong put on his parachute bag, his heart felt like a big stone falling to the ground, and he suddenly felt a sense of security, and his nervous spirit was also relieved.
Because reason told him that with this thing on his back, even if he really disintegrated in the air, his chances of survival would be greatly increased.
With a sense of security, I was no longer nervous, and my face eased.
"Thank you."
Li Weidong nodded towards Meng Congwei.
"You're welcome, you're mainly flying for the first time, so it's a little uncomfortable, just take a few more seats."
Meng Congwei knows Li Weidong's strength very well, and he doesn't blink an eye when he kills, such a person must not be like this because he is timid, and the biggest reason is his lack of security.
That's why I went to the cockpit and borrowed a parachute bag.
As he expected, after Li Weidong was on his back, he was immediately relieved.
"Secretary Xiao Li, you still need to exercise your psychological quality, if you want me to say, the more you are afraid of something, the more you have to bear something."
Xu Yuanshan looked at Li Weidong, who was getting better, in amazement, and couldn't help but joke.
He was the oldest among the crowd, and he should have been the most stable, but on the contrary, he behaved a little out-of-this, like an old child.
is also because Li Weidong is the youngest among everyone, so he wants to 'bully' it.
"Old Xu, Secretary Xiao Li is nineteen years old, and his good life has just begun, and he can't compare with you."
A middle-aged expert next to Xu Yuanshan couldn't help but say.
"What? Think I'm old? I said Xiao Cai, why don't we compare the two of us and see who lives longer. ”
Xu Yuanshan said disdainfully.
"Okay, it's comparable, when it comes to technology, I'm definitely not as good as you, but I'm not afraid of the years I live."
That expert Cai was not false, and shot back directly.
"Then you have to live for two more years, or you may not see the day I die."
Xu Yuanshan said even more calmly, not taboo at all.
In this way, with Xu Yuanshan here, he was not depressed along the way.
It wasn't until the transport plane landed at a military airport and slowly stopped that Li Weidong's hanging heart was completely put down.
Then, Meng Dongqing stepped forward, and everyone got into a truck and went straight to the location of the chemical plant.
The air here is obviously much drier, and even if it's cold, it doesn't feel the same.
As the truck swayed, soon, on the Gobi Desert, a magnificent giant city appeared in Li Weidong's sight.
The grandeur at this moment does not refer to high-rise buildings, but to a magnificent spirit.
Under the blue sky, the black and white style, and the huge factories that rise and fall one after another, form a magnificent picture.
Not only Li Weidong, but almost everyone looked out, so that there was no sound in the carriage.
A steel bridge over the banks of the Yellow River.
In the distance, there is a white tower towering into the sky, and its shadow is immersed in the Yellow River, sparkling and shining.
In the distance, oil refining towers can be seen rising from the ground.
People can't help but be stunned.
This is the first time in Li Weidong's two lives that he has come to this city on the Gobi Desert, and he finally understands that supporting the construction of the great northwest is never an empty word.
And what he sees now is actually a city that has been built, and you can imagine what it would have been like a few years ago.
"Secretary Li, how is it here? Isn't it shocking? Actually, this is the second time I've been here, but the last time I came, it was still barren and full of wind and sand. ”
Finally, Xu Yuanshan's voice pulled Li Weidong back.
"It's shocking."
Li Weidong nodded.
"Do you want to stay? If you want me to say, young people like you should come to this kind of place and start building from scratch. ”
Xu Yuanshan instigated.
"Elder Xu, Xiao Li is the focus of our unit's training, and his skills are not suitable for play here, so he should be placed in a more useful position."
Without waiting for Li Weidong to answer, Meng Dongqing had already blocked it first.
What Li Weidong represents, he knows very well.
Let the other party come here to engage in support construction?
Isn't this overkill?
He was really worried that Li Weidong was too young and had not experienced this kind of baptism, so he was suddenly shocked, and then agreed, so he refused for Li Weidong.
"Aren't you in the Heavy Equipment Division? Look here, oil refineries, chemical plants, weapons factories, aircraft factories, which is not major equipment? Staying away from those intrigues here, it is more suitable for young people to grow up. ”
Xu Yuanshan pursed his lips disdainfully.
He has applied many times, but the office has not agreed to him coming, so he has lost his temper for this.
So, he wanted to come, he really wanted to come.
"Let's talk about this later, let's come this time, the main thing is to inspect the equipment in the chemical plant, and then write a certification report to determine that the equipment is really backward technical equipment."
Meng Dongqing immediately changed the subject.
He also has no problem with an old expert like Xu Yuanshan, who has the ability.
You can't beat or scold, you have to coax well.
If it weren't for Li Weidong, he would definitely not have spoken.
"What's there to see? When I first saw the reports here, I knew that there was a problem with this batch of equipment, and I wrote several letters at that time, but did anyone believe it? Now, even if it is proved that these technical equipment are backward and belong to the obsolete, what is the use? Is it possible to expect those people to lose money? ”
Xu Yuanshan's eyes widened, and he finally found an outlet.
"No matter what, there must be a result, and it is precisely because I know that you know how to do it, so I ask you to take the pulse and see if there is a way to minimize the loss and try to fight for compensation from the other party."
Although Meng Dongqing, the director of the Major Equipment Division, is pretending, it doesn't mean that he doesn't understand anything.
Even before I came, I deliberately found a lot of information and memorized it all.
It can be said that it is completely 'back'.
"Hmph, it's late."
Xu Yuanshan retracted his gaze angrily, sat in the car and stopped talking.
also because of the dialogue between the two, the atmosphere in the carriage was a little solidified, especially the experts, and their mood was also heavy.
That's about 20 million pounds to bring in these devices.
What is this concept?
At the exchange rate at this time, 1 pound can be exchanged for 10.8 yuan.
Twenty million pounds is two hundred and eighty million.
Such a large sum of money is definitely an astronomical amount at the moment, and I don't know how many people have tightened their belts to save it.
In exchange for what others have eliminated.
How can people not be aggrieved?
How can you not be angry?
"Xu Lao, this is also a helpless thing, people are blocking us, not a single screw is willing to sell to us, this time smashing the pot to sell iron, spent several times the price, turned several turns to buy these technologies and equipment, even if it is backward, it is worth it, according to the opinion of the department, this is a breakthrough from 0 to 1.
The leader said that a temporary backwardness is nothing, as long as we roll up our sleeves and work hard, we will be able to catch up with them sooner or later. ”
Meng Dongqing said solemnly.
"Well, why didn't I know that? But the price is too great, and I feel pain here. ”
Xu Yuanshan patted his chest.
There is no one here who is not distressed, but what can be done if they are distressed?
And the 20 million pounds were paid with a small amount of foreign exchange.
"Old Xu, don't worry, the current difficulties are nothing, everything will be fine."
Li Weidong also comforted him.
At this point, it's hard to say whether the deal was a win or a loss.
But from the point of view of the future, it is earned.
As Meng Dongqing just said, this is a breakthrough from 0 to 1.
Even if you are a toddler in Handan, you have to have something to learn, otherwise a blank piece of paper, you don't even have a goal, how to paint?
"Hmm."
Xu Yuanshan nodded, but he didn't take Li Weidong's words seriously.
At the moment, many people are full of enthusiasm and hope, but there are also many people who are full of despair.
Because the gap is so great that there is little hope.
Soon, the truck crossed the steel bridge and made its way through the heavy industry-style city to the site of the chemical plant, and everyone was in good spirits.
The chemical plant had obviously received the letter a long time ago, so they sent someone to greet them at the door.
Although Xu Yuanshan was old, he didn't need anyone to help him, and he flipped off the truck by himself.
Then the expressionless face swept past the greeting man, and landed on the huge factory.
"Old Xu, I finally looked forward to you."
A middle-aged man with a weathered face walked out of the crowd and looked at Xu Yuanshan excitedly.
"It's useless to say this, Hao Laosan, take us directly to the factory to see the equipment."
Xu Yuanshan said angrily.
"You've been running all the way, and the canteen in the factory has prepared a catch-up wine, why don't you rest for a while with a few experts? Even if you look at the equipment, you are not in a hurry. ”
Hao Sanlei couldn't help but say.
"Hao Laosan, when did you learn this? What if I need to travel all the way here for your wine? Don't I have any alcohol at home? Either hurry up and get to work, or I'll go home now. ”
Xu Yuanshan's temper also came up.
"Then you have a few other experts, please come with me."
Hao Sanlei's waist was bent a little, with a smile on his face, but he looked so bitter.
"Deputy Director of the Chemical Plant, Chief Engineer."
seemed to see Li Weidong's question, and Meng Dongqing explained in a whisper beside him.
"Oh."
Li Weidong was stunned, and then he didn't say anything, and followed the other party directly.
He had come here mainly to find out how the two rats had ended up in George's hands.
George, on the other hand, is one of the experts dispatched to the chemical plant.
This will, George will be stabilized on the Yangcheng side, and the purpose of Li Weidong's trip is to find out everything before the other party reacts.
There are still many of George's accomplices in this chemical plant, and Li Weidong must first make sure that there are any accomplices of the other party among the remaining experts.
Then he followed the vine and found the man who had handed the two rats into George's hands.
And 'get rid of' these experts with ulterior motives.
It can be said that Li Weidong's trip is an arduous task, not only to arrest people, but also not to affect the mood of the remaining experts, after all, the equipment has to continue to be installed, and it is impossible to put it there as scrap metal.
We must continue to learn technology from others.
Even if Xu Yuanshan is dissatisfied, he has to admit that even if these are eliminated by others, they are still of great significance to his side, and they are the object of learning.
Li Weidong and Meng Dongqing followed everyone to the inside of the factory, only to see that it was completely a steel jungle, and many staff were busy.
And in the innermost, in front of a huge tank, there are many people around at the moment, among which the person in charge of directing the construction is a blonde and blue-eyed foreigner, whose expression is full of arrogance.
Because he spoke English, there were two translators next to him, and there were people in the back who were quickly recording, according to the instructions, every word the other party said should be recorded, and these things should be used as important information in the future.
Only when you have thoroughly learned and mastered it can you truly belong to yourself.
There is no way to do it.
Xu Yuanshan did not immediately step forward to disturb the other party, but listened to it for a while before striding forward and communicating directly with the other party in English.
Despite his stumbling words, at least the meaning is quite clear.
At this time, Li Weidong stepped forward quietly and began to observe those experts.
In fact, as early as when he came, Meng Dongqing handed him a document, which was the superficial identity of these construction experts.
With George, the other party sent a total of twelve experts this time.
And the daily allowance of these experts alone is not a small number.
Right now, the expert who is in command is named Abby, who is also the deputy leader of the expert group.
Li Weidong must not understand the various terms in the other party's mouth, but he understands that this deputy team leader named Abby is definitely good at technology, and when he talks to Xu Yuanshan at this moment, he is even more arrogant, obviously looking down on Xu Yuanshan, and even more down on the land under his feet.
Li Weidong just observed the other party for a moment, and then looked away, and now he is not sure whether the other party has a problem, because the other party's emotions at the moment are only thick contempt, and without guidance, there will definitely be no problems.
There are three experts gathered here, and the rest of the experts are either teaching technicians here and teaching technology, or directing the installation work in other workshops.
Li Weidong observed all three of them and kept them in mind.
Because he was too young, no one paid attention to him at the moment, only thinking that he was an inconspicuous follower.
In particular, he just stared at the foreign experts, as if he had never seen the world.
When he came back, Meng Dongqing showed an inquiring look.
He knew what kind of micro-expression psychology Li Weidong had, so he understood what Li Weidong was doing just now.
In the face of his inquiry, Li Weidong just shook his head slightly.
No matter how powerful he is, he can't read minds, and if the prerequisites are not met, he naturally has no way of determining whether the other party has a problem.
But at least, the three experts in front of them are focused on the equipment at the moment, even if they have contempt, there is no hostility.
Soon, the dispute between Xu Yuanshan and the other party in front of him ended, not that he won, but that people simply stopped paying attention to him.
Even if Xu Yuanshan jumped to his feet, it was useless, but he was dragged away by Hao Sanlei.
After leaving from here, Xu Yuanshan still did not give up, and went around the workshop from workshop to workshop, which also allowed Li Weidong to meet most of the foreign experts.
It's just that so far, there is still one person he hasn't seen, and that is the leader of the opposing expert group this time.
Trutz.
