Chapter 24: The Celebration Banquet

The trial production of new carbon-carbon composite materials has been a great success, and the performance of the finished product has basically reached 95% of the laboratory performance.

For this result, both the workers of the 703 factory and the members of the technical guidance group of the research institute are relatively satisfied.

Even Zhang Xingyang, who has strict production regulations, does not have too much dissatisfaction.

In fact, in my own expectation, the material performance can reach 80% of the laboratory performance during trial production.

In order to celebrate the imminent success of the mass production of new carbon-carbon composite materials, the factory and the technical guidance team held a celebration banquet.

A large round table with a large red tablecloth was filled in the factory cafeteria.

The skills of the chef in the canteen of the 703 factory are also good, and he makes the best Hunan dishes.

The big red table is full of chicken, duck and fish with the color of red oil and chili peppers.

The few leaders present were not people who liked formalism.

Hu Deming and Zhang Xingyang said a few words together, eating and drinking well, and then beckoned everyone to start eating.

Zhang Xingyang was a person who liked spicy food in his previous and second lives, so today's meal was actually very much in line with Zhang Xingyang's taste.

Pick up a chopstick, and stuff the shiny back pot meat into your mouth, and the fine and dense spicy sensation bursts in your mouth like a small bomb.

I felt my whole body come alive and was just ready to try the chef's spicy chicken.

Hu Deming on the side picked up a large glass of beer and toasted to Zhang Xingyang:

"Dean Zhang, I salute you, if it weren't for you, our factory would probably go out of business."

Zhang Xingyang casually picked up the cup containing apple juice, touched it with Hu Deming, and said:

"Everyone just takes what they need, but Factory 703 is now a subordinate unit of our Rocket Research Institute, so you don't have to be so restricted, just be natural."

Drinking the apple juice in the cup, Zhang Xingyang was just about to continue eating.

Xu Yuanchao stood up with a wine glass again, wanting to toast Zhang Xingyang.

At this time, the representative of the military is Xu Yuanchao, and the old chief who came to check the trial production activities has returned to the northern capital to report the production of new materials in the 703 factory.

"Dean Zhang, I'm a rough person, I don't know what to say, it's all in the wine."

Xu Yuanchao picked up the wine glass as he said and drank it all.

There was no way, Zhang Xingyang picked up his drink cup again and drank half a glass of apple juice.

In order to prevent a steady stream of people coming to toast him from behind, Zhang Xingyang took the initiative to stand up and said to the dozens of people at the table in the cafeteria:

"In order to celebrate the successful completion of the new material trial production activity, let's have a drink together."

An enthusiastic response rang out in the cafeteria.

"Good!"

"Thank you, Dean Zhang!"

"Dean Zhang is free, we did it!"

Most of the people present were workers engaged in production work, and everyone still had great respect for the Rocket Research Institute, which brought them job opportunities.

So when Zhang Xingyang proposed to have a drink together, everyone was very happy.

Zhang Xingyang picked up the cup, raised his head and drank it all, and then said:

"Don't be busy toasting, eat and drink!"

Hearing this, a few people in the crowd who originally planned to toast with Zhang Xingyang and show their faces in front of the leader had no choice but to retract their thoughts and sit down to eat.

Zhang Xingyang was finally able to taste the chef's craftsmanship at this time.

The spicy flavor of the chicken can be felt in the mouth, and the spicy sensation spreads in the mouth, and the muscles are tender and smooth, without the slightest sense of firewood.

Food is one of Zhang Xingyang's few hobbies in this era of backward entertainment methods.

So he cherishes the opportunity to eat like this, after all, many times when he is busy, what he can eat depends on luck.

Just as Zhang Xingyang picked up another chopstick and steamed bacon and stuffed it into his mouth.

The bacon that has been precipitated over the years, shiny and oily, eats in the mouth, spicy and lubricated.

"Dean Zhang likes to eat this bacon very much, I'll ask the chef to bring you some when I leave."

Hu Deming, as the director of a state-owned factory, is naturally not a stupid person, and he can see Zhang Xingyang's love for bacon at a glance, so he proposed to let the other party take some away.

Zhang Xingyang's eyes lit up, this bacon was really to his taste, and said with a smile:

"Then I'll thank you, please help me talk to the chef then, the craftsmanship is good."

When talking about food, everyone seems to have opened the conversation, which can enhance the relationship between both parties.

"Then I will thank Dean Zhang on behalf of the chef, the chef and their family's ancestral craftsmanship were set aside before the founding of the People's Republic of China."

Hu Deming heard Zhang Xingyang's praise and said happily.

The celebration banquet ended in such a jubilant atmosphere.

That night, Zhang Xingyang, who took the night train back to the research institute.

Looking at the pitch-black mountains and fields outside, and the starry sky clear to the naked eye, I thought.

At present, as the material problem of the basis of the rocket engine, the core of the new carbon-carbon composite material has been able to be mass-produced, and a stone in my heart can be regarded as the ground.

What is still in front of him is the soul of the rocket engine, the control system.

In this regard, the domestic mainstream still uses imported components from abroad, and the localization rate in this regard is still very low.

This is also a big problem that bothers me, after all, I can't continue to run to produce electronic components.

It's not that Zhang Xingyang doesn't know the technology here, but it's another problem.

The production chain of these components is too long, and it is not possible for a single manufacturer to handle it.

Moreover, there is a shortage of raw materials and production equipment in China.

After all, he is just one person, and it is impossible to take everything on himself.

In that case, even if your body is still strong, you will be crushed sooner or later.

So is the only thing in front of me is to continue to import from abroad?

Zhang Xingyang frowned deeply.

attracted the attention of Su Xiao, who was sitting opposite and going back together, and asked suspiciously:

"Brother Xingyang, what are you worried about?"

Generally, everyone only calls Zhang Xingyang as Dean Zhang when they are working, and they call Zhang Xingyang a lot more casually when they communicate in private.

Most people call themselves Xingyang or Brother Xingyang, after all, Zhang Xingyang is not much older than these young people.

"I'm thinking about the control system."

Su Xiao also understands that this aspect is still a domestic shortcoming, and even the last rocket accident is said to have a problem with the control system.

Su Xiao's understanding of this aspect was not much different from that of ordinary people, so he did not continue to speak.

In the end, Zhang Xingyang looked at the bright South Gate II in the sky and thought.

It is still necessary to try to take the road of localization, after all, after all, Eagle Sauce will only become more and more severe for various domestic high-tech industries.

If you don't take the road of localization, there will only be a dead end.
