1977: It all started with a wrong love

Chapter 34 Sensation
Facts speak louder than words.

The news that Lu Yifan had developed a new type of special alloy steel material at the county agricultural machinery factory, whose quality and performance indicators were unprecedented, quickly spread to the military research experts at the 1387th Factory hidden deep in the branches of the Qinling Mountains not far away, and they all came to the site to observe the situation.

This situation was naturally what Lu Yifan had been expecting and it set the pace!

At first glance, I saw that extremely cool and multifunctional military shovel.

All the military research experts were amazed and praised it highly.

"Tsk tsk, this is definitely a novel weapon design idea beyond imagination!"

"Oh my god, this design is so genius! Compared with this multifunctional military shovel, the military shovel we designed for the army before is just like stinking shit!"

"Not really. If I hadn't seen a real thing like this, who the hell could have imagined that an ordinary military shovel could be integrated with so many new features, and it's all so damn practical. Everything is in line with the needs of the front-line battlefield. This is the most amazing design point..."

"Genius! A true genius!!"

"Ha, let's say that if every officer and soldier in our army had a shovel like this, their combat effectiveness index on the battlefield of the Northern Dynasty would have been increased by 30% to 50%. This is the culmination of cold weapon design. It is definitely the king of cold weapons that is still indispensable in the modern hot war environment..."

"Engineer Lu, come work at our 1387th Factory! The army needs talented designers like you!"

"Yes, yes. With your unique ideas and advanced thinking in military equipment design, you can directly become a project leader when you come to our 1387th Factory!"

"Yes, yes, yes. Our military research department is now frantically trying to make up for the lost ten years. There are too many projects that need to be picked up by design experts urgently. Time is running out!"

"Hey, you laymen, stop saying such ridiculous things. Mr. Lu is a talented man who has been admitted to two of the most famous universities in Beijing, Yan University and Tsinghua University. After a few years of further study in college, the industry he can work in may be dozens or even hundreds of times higher than the starting point of a local military factory like ours. You are so crazy that you want to cut him in..."

"That's right. Right now, what is obviously more valuable is this new special alloy material that Engineer Lu and his colleagues have successfully developed..."

"It's not that great. This new type of special alloy steel material not only has strength, toughness, stress and other indicators that far exceed those of ordinary steel, but its most important feature is that it is a lightweight composite steel with a light texture. This is its most valuable feature..."

"Director Wang, Engineer Lu, have you calculated the cost of this new alloy steel material?"

When Director Wang heard this, he first looked at Lu Yifan expectantly. When he saw Lu Yifan nod to let him speak, he immediately puffed out his chest and raised his head and said, "Compared with the ordinary steel and crude steel materials in the factory, the cost is at least 30% cheaper."

"what?!"

"How is this possible?!"

"Yes, Director Wang, you got the data wrong!!"

"The cost of this kind of lightweight composite steel with excellent performance is actually more than 30% cheaper than that of ordinary steel and crude steel? If the data is correct, this means that when you synthesized this new material, the cost of the newly added special elements is very cheap, and it is also another major material after steel?"

"Oh my god! If this is really the case, then the importance of this new alloy material will completely rewrite the foundation of our country's industrial modernization construction..."

Among the military research experts, there are still some talented people with broader knowledge, and their words directly hit the nail on the head.

Director Wang didn't dare to take credit for it anymore, and hurriedly pulled Lu Yifan forward, "Engineer Lu is the real creator of the new alloy material. These details are crucial, and you need to communicate with Engineer Lu."

***
Soon, as everyone expected, another furnace of alloy steel came out.

After further testing and verification, all aspects of performance indicators are stable.

Now, the military research experts who really know the subject are becoming increasingly unable to remain calm.

One thing that must be understood is that the steelmaking furnace at the county agricultural machinery factory, in terms of equipment and conditions, cannot be compared with a real steel plant at all. To put it bluntly, there is almost no technical difference between it and the traditional steelmaking furnace that was popular throughout the country more than ten years ago.

But even in such a simple environment.

They can actually ensure 100% production achievement rate of this new lightweight composite steel.

And then it undergoes more complex and harsh destructive experimental testing.

This alloy material still received an extremely excellent test result. Director Luo of the 1387th Factory said solemnly:

"Engineer Lu, Director Wang, all fellow workers at the Agricultural Machinery Factory, this is a serious matter. Our military's opinions on this new alloy steel material must be reported to the central government immediately. At the same time, all those who know about it need to sign an S-level confidentiality agreement. Before you memorize the confidentiality agreement, please do not leave the factory for the time being..."

He Zhengwei, the Party Working Committee of Factory 1387, said:
"Yes, for the sake of the country's future development, we must temporarily let you all down..."

After carefully evaluating the importance of the situation, the military representatives and military research experts from Factory 1387 attached great importance to it, issued a curfew on the spot, and organized all those who knew about the situation to start studying the confidentiality regulations on the spot.

The military attaches great importance to this attitude.

Naturally, everyone at the agricultural machinery factory had no complaints.

The times are different, and today's people often unconditionally cooperate with anything needed in national construction.

The people of this era are generally poor in terms of material foundation.

But the centripetal force in everyone's hearts to build a strong motherland is definitely the highest peak of the era. It cannot be matched by the hedonistic thinking of "everyone is looking at money, and life is about making a lot of money" in the next few decades.

at the same time.

The news was also quickly reported to higher-level central agencies through a confidential hotline.

A new alloy steel material with excellent performance and super low cost has been introduced to the world.

This is a top-level event that can completely rewrite the pace of the country's industrial modernization construction. Once the news is detected by the outside world, it will be an industrial foundation innovation invention that will shock the whole world...

The capital city was shocked!

Immediately, a higher-level expert group boarded a military plane and flew directly to Qinxi.

For the sharp and intuitive reactions of military representatives and military research experts.

Lu Yifan also admired him very much.

Originally, he was a little worried that such a super-light composite steel would be used in major projects such as aerospace and the construction of the East China University of Technology's moon base in the future. It would be one of the most widely used and basic super-light alloy composite materials.

He was brought into this world half a century earlier than expected.

If the relevant departments do not have this awareness and vigilance.

He still has a headache. How can he make the country pay attention to it and not treat it as a special steel in the ordinary sense? Otherwise, if a few years pass and the disgusting East Japanese business investment group enters the country in large numbers, the formula secrets can be easily deceived by the Japanese business spies...

I will not go into detail about what happened next.

To sum it up in one sentence, Lu Yifan's talent as a genius scientific researcher was clearly registered in the special department.

Furthermore, Lu Yifan, the top science student in Qinxi Province who received admission letters from two top universities in Beijing, Yanjing University and Tsinghua University, was a high-ranking leader. After learning about such interesting things, he was actually full of expectations and wanted to sit back and watch the super show that would be staged next year.

Okay!

This is the first year that the national college entrance examination system has just been fully restored.

Such a wonderful thing actually happened.

The two top universities in Beijing were competing for who was the real top university in Beijing, but they actually let a student who hadn't even entered the school take control of them...

To describe it with the chief architect's slightly sarcastic words.

Who will win the prize? This competition for the top school in Beijing can really show the new era and new atmosphere. It is definitely an interesting event in the education field worth looking forward to! ~~
