Chapter 689: Do we really want to research aircraft engines?
He continued to boost morale: "I hope this achievement can be left in the memorial hall and become a new legend of ours."
The applause continued. Huang Jianmin clapped excitedly, and everyone made up their minds: they must go all out in the days ahead!
"After these devices are installed, please familiarize yourself with their operation. You can choose difficult tasks to train the team."
"Also, you must improve the technical level of your employees as quickly as possible. Old Huang, you must take good care of this!"
"The R&D department will also do its best to assist you, please don't feel too much pressure."
Zhao Wei patted Huang Jianmin on the shoulder, left the workshop and walked towards the office. Looking at his receding back, Huang Jianmin took a deep breath and then turned to everyone.
"Listen carefully! Success or failure depends on this move. It is in our hands."
Huang Jianmin's eyes were sharp: "From today on, everyone will perform their duties and assign tasks. Whoever fails to achieve the goal will be trained again until he is qualified. If you still don't meet the requirements by then, don't blame me for demoting you!"
Hearing this, everyone was horrified - a demotion was something that had never happened before. But from Director Huang's expression, it was clear that this was not a joke.
Zhao Wei returned to the office and sat on a chair, drinking the hot water from the enamel cup on the table. Lou Xiu'e was working attentively next to him, and he nodded slightly.
In preparation for the upcoming work, he focused on the design drawings in his hand. "As long as I am here, the engine development will not be a problem; as long as I have the system in hand, it will be even easier," he thought.
A few days ago, Zhao Wei learned that the Red Star Machinery Factory was upgraded to a directly managed agency, and needed to produce more impressive results to show its superiors and reduce the pressure on the leaders.
In addition, with some production work being offloaded and new vacancies being filled, it is a good time to move forward with this project. The most important point is that turbine engine drawings are time-sensitive - they can become outdated.
So he decided to strike while the iron was hot and seize the initiative in research and development.
Zhao Wei took the opportunity of visiting his hometown to ask several elders about the current situation of aviation engines. He learned that my country is imitating the P-21 engine of the MiG-13, but the progress is not smooth.
In contrast, the AL-21 design he had was clearly more advanced. In order to seize the opportunity and avoid future doubts or suspicions, he had to act early.
Of course, in actual research and development, he also realized that success would not be guaranteed just by having the blueprints, and that the cooperation and support of other domestic factors also needed to be considered.
In short, he decided to devote himself to this complex project and demonstrate his unique abilities.
Time passed silently, and as the afternoon approached the end of the workday, Lou Xiu'e looked at her watch to remind everyone that it was time for dinner. However, at this time, several leaders suddenly visited, making the situation tense.
Liu Huamin, Yang Guoqiang and others gathered around Zhao Wei's desk. "What are you talking about? Do you really want to study aircraft engines?" They looked at the drawings on the desk with doubts on their faces.
Facing everyone's doubts, Zhao Wei explained: "This is not only to prove our strength, but more importantly to maintain the leading position of the machinery factory. We need to continue to innovate and no longer rely on past glory."
Finally, several people seemed convinced and began to listen to the specific implementation steps of this new plan.
Through hard work and persistence, Hongxing Machinery Factory will usher in a new turning point.
This point in particular directly determines the success or failure of the project.
After hearing this, Zhao Zhiming and others fell silent. The four of them had rich experience in the field of mechanical manufacturing, but Yang Xiaotao was more proficient in this area. Everyone knew this and had to follow his advice.
"Then how can we improve the workers' technical level?" someone asked.
"I myself have worked my way up from the workshop, and I know very well that for a worker to improve his skills, it requires not only talent but also persistent efforts and daily practice. If you don't practice for a day, you will become rusty, and if you don't practice for a long time, the skills will be wasted. Sometimes I go to the workshop to practice and keep in shape," responded Yang Xiaotao.
"Do you mean to use projects to hone their skills?" Chen Jianguo finally understood his intention.
"That's right. Not only this department, but several other departments also need to be urged."
Zhang Wenqiang was still a little worried. "But this engine design is not easy! I heard that the design of the Logistics Department in Shengjing has not been finalized yet."
"Indeed, they are designing and manufacturing at the same time, and they have to improve while experimenting, which is very time-consuming and laborious." Yang Xiaotao lit a cigarette, "I think it's better to put this project aside for now? The armored vehicle project is also very good, and we can produce it together."
However, Yang Xiaotao shook his head and said, "I decided to stick to making aircraft engines. I believe I can succeed."
Looking at the determined expression on his face, everyone was silent for a moment.
Lin Weimin then interrupted and said, "Since Mr. Yang thinks it's okay, I think we might as well give it a try."
Others were somewhat dissatisfied, but they also knew that it was useless to object. "You always stand on Mr. Yang's side," Li Guofeng complained.
"It's always the case. Every time he started a new project, it always exceeded expectations and was successful," Lin Weimin said with a smile. "He also seems serious this time. Why should we doubt him?"
"Maybe there really is a possibility of success?" After hearing Lin Weimin's words, several people fell into deep thought.
Yang Xiaotao expressed his approval and promised to report any difficulties he encountered. "We will do our best and hope you will continue to support us."
In the next few days, the entire workshop was busy preparing for new research and development work. The news about the future tasks of the workshop spread quickly and attracted the attention of higher authorities. Upon learning that the factory was determined to develop aircraft engines, some experts from relevant departments such as the Ministry of Aviation expressed mixed feelings.
During the Spring Festival, Yang Xiaotao was talking with members of the security department. Not far away, Ran Xuefen was seeing off several guests, and Ms. Cui would also be returning to Shanghai soon.
"Please take care of me along the way." Yang Xiaotao handed over several packages of gifts to express his gratitude. "This journey is not very convenient for the elderly. Thank you for your help."
The train whistle blew, and people began to prepare to board the train and leave. "Grandma, take care of yourself," the granddaughters reminded Ms. Cui.
With a ding-bell sound, the train started and slowly drove away into the distance.
After leaving the train station, Yang Xiaotao and Ran Xuefen drove back. When passing by the school, they talked about whether to go to see the children's school situation. "No need to go, let's go when the drug harvest season comes."
The two returned home and went to their respective posts: Yang Xiaotao rushed to the machine repair shop to check the progress; while his wife took the team to the fields to manage farm work, leaving the family pets Wangcai and Wangwang to guard the house.
As for the triplets, they have adapted to the new environment in the nursery, and only the youngest brother occasionally cries because he can't bear to leave his parents. They are picked up and taken care of by their grandmother every morning and evening. Although they are naughty, they generally take good care of the family.
