Scholars in the courtyard

The atmosphere at the scene was intense. Mr. Zhang could not help but sigh while waving his arms vigorously. He tilted his head to Mr. Huang beside him and said, "I kind of like this kid."

Mr. Huang laughed and said, "Old monitor, you can't try to influence him, otherwise I will have to complain to my sister-in-law."

"Ha ha"

The two laughed.

Not far away, Liu Lixue held a camera to record this heated scene.

When the singing stops and people's passion is released, the blood is still surging in the blood vessels.

Zhang Lao and others were also infected and worked hard to restore calm.

"Old monitor, let's get down to business today."

Mr. Huang looked at the people around him and then looked at the time. He came here early this morning. The main business today is the experiment of the oxygen top-blown converter.

Mr. Zhang smiled and said, "For you, it's business, but for me, this workshop in front of me is my business."

Mr. Huang shook his head, "That's not possible. This is for the converter experiment. If you want to use it, just ask the machinery factory to make two units and build a new workshop."

Mr. Zhang pointed at Mr. Huang and smiled, "You guy."

"Let's not talk about anything else. Prepare twenty tons for me within this week. It is needed urgently."

Mr. Huang nodded after hearing this and said to Yang Xiaotao, "Xiao Yang, do you hear that? Twenty tons."

"Yes, chief, I promise to complete the mission."

Mr. Huang nodded and added at the end, "Just leave the warehouse according to the order."

Yang Xiaotao was stunned for a moment, then laughed.

After hearing this, Mr. Zhang pointed and smiled again, "Don't worry, I will definitely give you a lot of what you deserve."

Then he looked at Yang Xiaotao and said, "Twenty tons of bottoming, whatever extra is available is what I want. Give it all together."

Yang Xiaotao smiled and said, "Chief, don't worry, we are not afraid of not being able to complete the task, but we are afraid of not having the task."

Hahaha

Behind the crowd, when Guan Zhiyong heard this, he immediately clenched his fists and whispered to the workshop director next to him, "Did you hear that? Did you hear what the leader said?"

The director nodded excitedly, "Don't worry, factory director, we will start working in two shifts today. Not to mention twenty tons, even if it is doubled, we can make it for him."

Guan Zhiyong nodded happily, these are mission rewards.

I think their steel factory has finally been able to collect wool, but they have to seize this opportunity and compare it.

After finishing the conversation, everyone set off to their destination.

Outside the converter workshop.

An Zhongsheng took Zhang Hongxian and Li Junming for final inspection.

"How are the preparations for the big crane? What's the situation with the blast furnace?"

An Zhongsheng was wearing a safety helmet and long-sleeved overalls. Although the weather was cool, he had his sleeves rolled up to his elbows and held a folder in his hand, looking more dignified than ever before.

"The inspection of the large crane is correct, and the molten iron in the blast furnace is also ready."

Zhang Hongxian reported that although he was the chief of the R\u0026D Department, he had long put this identity aside during this period of work. In addition, An Zhongsheng's own technical ability and the person in charge were appointed by Yang Xiaotao. There was no hesitation about An Zhongsheng's arrangements.

“Has the converter lining been inspected?”

Li Lei stepped forward and said, "It has been inspected and everything is in good condition."

“Where are the oxygen guns, pipes, and water sources?”

"They are all ready, and we have also prepared spares for replacement. If there is a problem, it can be replaced quickly."

Li Lei said and An Zhongsheng nodded.

"How are the fuel crews prepared?"

"Everything is ready, they are all experienced workers, and the operation quantity will not cause any problems."

Li Junming also took the notebook and replied, "As long as you start, the hot air in the furnace can be used."

An Zhongsheng nodded.

"Mr. Pang, please keep an eye on me with the liquid oxygen."

Pang Guo nodded, "Don't worry, there won't be any problems there."

Finally, he looked at Wang Hao who came to assist, "Chief Wang, are the fire rescue in place?"

Wang Hao nodded, admiring a capable person like An Zhongsheng, "Angong's two fire trucks and two ambulances are already in place. We guarantee to arrive at the scene within two minutes."

"good!"

After An Zhongsheng finished speaking, he looked at the people around him and spoke again, "Let's sort out the process again."

"The first is the transportation of molten iron."

Here An Zhongsheng was talking, and everyone below was listening attentively.

This is a first for the steel plant.

It is also the first new technology to be officially used in China.

Don't dare to be careless.

After a while, when An Zhongsheng finished talking about the precautions, a group of people in the distance had already approached.

An Zhongsheng saw Yang Xiaotao leading the chief over, and quickly brought people to greet him.

"Mr. Yang, Chief"

An Zhongsheng stood aside, and Yang Xiaotao introduced to everyone, "Chief, this is the general person in charge of this experiment, Comrade An Zhongsheng."

Mr. Huang has heard of this person, and the Metallurgical Bureau has been trying to get him intermittently. Now it seems that this person is coming, and it's not a loss.

"Hello, Chief."

An Zhongsheng came forward to see him, looking excited.

I met Mr. Xia last time, and this time he was a bigger leader than Mr. Xia.

Not to mention Li Lei, Li Junming and others behind him, you can tell by the expressions on their faces.

There were workers from the steel factory all around, and they had specially dressed up and dressed up for today.

After meeting a few people, under Yang Youning's arrangement, everyone began to board the viewing platform.

This high platform is only over one meter high, with only three rows of tables and chairs.

There was a red cloth pulled at the top, with large letters written in calligraphy on it. Yang Xiaotao took a look at it, and the words were: 'Warmly welcome to guide the test run experiment of the new oxygen top blowing technology. ’

Well

Easy to understand.

Yang Xiaotao found An Zhongsheng, "An Gong, are you ready?"

"Mr. Yang, everything is ready."

"That's good, don't rush later, just follow the steps."

"Yes, understand."

After talking to An Zhongsheng, Yang Xiaotao walked to the podium.

In the middle of the front row were Huang Laozhang and others. Originally, Yang Xiaotao, Liu Huaimin, and Yang Youning were sitting on the edge of the first row. However, when they came up, Huang Lao called them to his side and sat beside him and Xia Lao.

Workers from the steel plant below met and became more aware of Yang Xiaotao's status.

As for the people in the second row, most of them were leaders who came together, as well as comrades from the machinery factory.

As the host of this meeting, Chen Gong stood at the microphone and stole Yang Youning's words.

Looking at a group of workers below, he spoke loudly.

"Good morning to all heads, leaders and comrades."

“On this sunny day”

After Chen Gong finished his opening remarks, he began to introduce the various leaders present at the meeting.

After the introduction, we went straight to the topic, and Mr. Huang announced the start of the test run.

As Mr. Huang's order was issued, An Zhongsheng looked serious and quickly directed everyone to start taking action.

"Attention, hoisting team, the big overhead crane is started, molten iron is ready to be poured in, all departments pay attention to cooperation, repeat, all departments pay attention to cooperation"

"receive."

"clear!"

As the voice fell, under the tall tower in the distance, the large crane moved slowly, preparing to receive the molten iron.

On the rostrum, everyone held telescopes and stared ahead.

From time to time, someone was communicating and discussing in a low voice.

Xia Lao watched for a while and asked Yang Xiaotao, "Why don't you take command this time?"

Yang Xiaotao put down the telescope and said, "Leader, this is steelmaking, and I don't understand it."

"Is there anything else you don't understand?"

Mr. Huang next to him smiled, and Yang Xiaotao hurriedly said, "I really don't know much about this."

Several people laughed, and then listened to Yang Xiaotao's explanation, "The main reason is that there are too few books in this field and there are not enough books to read."

This time everyone laughed even more happily.

Below, the large overhead crane has been loaded with molten iron and begins to move under the operation of workers.

Everyone was looking forward intently, moving with the movement of the big crane.

Finally, the big crane came to the top of the boiler and stopped.

The worker responsible for the observation wiped the sweat from his head, confirmed the alignment, and waved the red flag in his hand.

An Zhongsheng received the instruction and then shouted, "Add molten iron."

Wow

On the rostrum in the distance, everyone saw a blazing torrent pouring from the overhead crane into the boiler. It was like boiling water exploding, and molten iron could be seen splashing around.

It was not until finally that all the overhead cranes were dumped in and moved away.

"This boiler is not big."

Mr. Zhang next to him asked, Yang Xiaotao stretched his head forward and explained, "This was originally a small side furnace, and it can only use one ton at a time."

Mr. Zhang nodded and said no more.

Below, An Zhongsheng continued to shout, "Attention, all groups, the oxygen guns are blocked and ready to start."

"Oxygen gun, pay attention to the oxygen gun, the water pump must continue to work, repeat, must continue to work."

Not far away, after inspecting the liquid oxygen tank, Pang Guo instructed the workers around him to start the water pump.

Under the action of the water pump, the instantaneous water flow quickly flows in the reserved pipe inside the oxygen gun.

"Liquid oxygen is ready."

Pang Guo looked at the power pump on the ground again. It would be needed later to pump liquid oxygen into the oxygen gun, forming high pressure, and then rush it into the boiler for stirring.

As An Zhongsheng's order was issued, the lid with the oxygen gun slowly came to the top of the boiler. After another confirmation, the furnace lid slowly closed.

"Side door, close."

"clear."

The entire converter slowly closed in front of everyone's eyes, and the furnace that was still glowing with yellow flames instantly became quiet.

"Maintain temperature, combustion group on, liquid oxygen, on."

An Zhongsheng shouted loudly with almost all his strength, quickly and simply.

The workers fully understand the essentials.

The people in the combustion team pushed the coal and began to heat it, and the oxygen gun was turned on at this moment.

Driven by the power pump, liquid oxygen enters directly from the oxygen tank along the pipeline, and then passes through the nozzle to spray out high-pressure liquid oxygen.

It's just that at this high temperature, the liquid oxygen has turned into high-purity oxygen when it comes into contact with the liquid surface. Then under the action of pressure, a vortex is formed at the nozzle. The originally calm furnace suddenly dents under this pressure, and then the surface becomes The waves undulate, and oxygen blends into the molten iron in this violent stirring, causing the entire molten pool to stir.

Outside, An Zhongsheng nervously clenched the pen in his hand, for fear of an accident happening at this time.

Li Junming and other people in the R\u0026D department were all watching nervously, and various sounds in the furnace could be heard in their ears.

They need to pay attention to the movement of the boiler at all times and record what they see as first-hand information for research.

Five minutes passed.

An Zhongsheng's clenched palms were already sweating.

On the rostrum, everyone picked up their binoculars from time to time and looked at the boiler in front of them. Although they couldn't see what was going on inside, they still didn't want to put it down.

ten minutes later.

Yang Xiaotao could no longer sit still. This kind of waiting was very painful.

Watching the combustion team continuously transporting coal, watching the observers in front wiping sweat from their foreheads from time to time, I always wanted to step forward and take a closer look.

fifteen minutes.

Seeing that Yang Xiaotao was a little anxious, Mr. Xia smiled and said, "Can't sit still?"

"Where are you? Look at them, they are not even in a hurry."

He said pointing to the workers below.

I saw that the workers on site were not impatient. Instead, some people were sitting on the ground and watching at leisure.

Looking around again, many people had already picked up the enamel bowl on the table and started drinking water.

Yang Youning on the other side told Guan Zhiyong something, and then saw Guan Zhiyong nodding and waving behind him, and saw a group of female workers coming up with a plate of apples and starting to distribute them one by one.

"This steelmaking cannot be completed immediately."

Huang Lao was also explaining on the side, "Sometimes it takes more than half a day to smelt a pot of molten steel. If the time is short, it is useless at all."

"And this requires careful observation by workers, and sometimes the smelting is uneven. The upper part is blue-white, and the lower part is still yellow, which means it still needs to be smelted."
