Scholars in the courtyard

At the scene, the crowd surged.

People from all over the world greeted each other with various accents. Some looked tired, some were in high spirits, some were looking at the surrounding scenery, and some were looking for acquaintances to communicate with.

All around, there was chaos.

Yang Xiaotao looked at the scene, stood there, and did not rush forward to communicate.

Of course, he didn't know anyone else, but others were very interested in him.

After hearing the names of Yang Youning and others, many people stopped to watch, and some came to say hello.

Of course, most people feel strangely alienated from the fact that Yang Xiaotao has made achievements in their circle at such a young age and still sits in this position.

However, they also know that Yang Xiaotao's more abilities are in machinery, and the steel plant still depends on them.

As everyone gathered and communicated in the square, the cars bought later started to drive in. The cars unloading people in front could only move to the side to get out of the way. In an instant, all the people were in front of them.

This time alone, the number of people has exceeded 200, and there are more to come.

Among these people are elite personnel from various steel plants.

Some factory directors led the team, some secretaries led the team, and there were even local groups that organized themselves and a group of factory directors came together.

There are large steel plants and small steel plants.

People who come here have only one purpose, to see what the new converter technology is.

What are the benefits.

How to use it.

It's past eight o'clock.

A row of cars came in together from the outside as if they had made an appointment. Everyone quickly got out of the way and watched quietly.

Wait for the car to stop.

Mr. Xia and Mr. Huang got off the first car. Before Liu Huaimin and others came forward to greet them, they looked at the car behind them.

On the second car, Mr. Zhang from the Third Machinery Department and Mr. Qin from the Logistics Department got off together.

The third person who got off the bus was Mr. Wang from the Seventh Machinery Department and an old man of the same age. There was no need to guess which machine department boss he was.

There were also two or three elderly people getting off each of the fourth and fifth cars.

Everyone got out of the car, said hello, and then waited in front of the car.

Mr. Huang also waved to Liu Huaimin, Yang Xiaotao and others, and they hurried forward to look at the last car together.

The door of the last car opened, and one person got out first. Yang Xiaotao looked around and saw Chief Wang from the northwest. He felt strange, but he also smiled and nodded at Wang Hu, who was looking over.

Then on the other side of the car, Mr. Chen came out with a smile on his face.

Behind these cars, several more jeeps came in one after another, and Mr. Sun and Mr. Li waited for the people from the First Machinery Department. They also greeted some unfamiliar faces.

All of a sudden, more than a dozen leaders came down, making the originally lively scene quiet.

Yang Youning was counting the number of leaders in his mind. Halfway through the calculation, he immediately made a gesture to Guan Zhiyong behind him.

Guan Zhiyong received the instruction, understood it immediately and ran to the podium.

Yang Xiaotao followed behind Mr. Huang and Mr. Xia and came to Wang Huzi and Mr. Chen.

He was quickly surrounded by people.

"Hello, comrades."

Mr. Chen looked at the group of people around him. Most of them were unfamiliar faces, but there were also many familiar faces.

Mr. Chen smiled, and Wang Huzi on the side greeted the people in front and came to Yang Xiaotao.

"Chief, I didn't expect you to come back."

"Haha, I came back with a mission this time, but you broke your promise. Last time you said you would go to the northwest, why didn't you go?"

Yang Xiaotao was a little embarrassed. When he came back last time, he said he would watch the corn pollination, but he didn't want to think that there were too many things going on in the machinery factory and they couldn't be separated at all.

But breaking a promise is breaking a promise, and I really didn't do it.

"Chief, when this is over, I will serve you a drink to apologize."

Yang Xiaotao could only say this now. Wang Huzi laughed after hearing this, "Take it, I'm waiting for this drink."

When Mr. Huang and Mr. Xia beside them heard what Yang Xiaotao said, they suddenly felt relieved. They were just afraid that Yang Xiaotao would say something and follow them to the northwest. No matter how they stopped it, they would not be able to justify it.

Fortunately, it was just a drink.

"Comrade Yang Xiaotao."

At this time, Mr. Chen also came forward. The two met when they were investigating the accident, but they were in a hurry to investigate and did not communicate much.

But it doesn't mean that Mr. Chen is not familiar with Yang Xiaotao.

On the contrary, after a little inquiry from the superiors, it became clear how important what the boy in front of him was doing.

Especially the corn.

Seeing Wang Huzi and Yang Xiaotao being so close, they understood the importance of corn to the country.

Of course, achievements in the mechanical industry are only stronger than those in agriculture.

"Chief."

Compared to Wang Huzi, Yang Xiaotao has more respect for Mr. Chen.

This has nothing to do with the level of the position. If he has had a drink with Wang Huzi, it is purely because he is more familiar with them.

Mr. Chen nodded with a smile, his slim figure and wise eyes.

"I heard that you made the pressure cooker, and you also presided over the assembly of the flying eagle behind it?"

"Yes chief."

Yang Xiaotao was not modest, and Mr. Chen nodded.

"The national economy needs to be built, and we cannot rely solely on macro-control. It also needs to comply with the laws of the market."

Mr. Chen spoke softly as if he was instructing his juniors.

Yang Xiaotao comes from a later generation, so he naturally knows the direction of subsequent economic development. He also has a thorough understanding of what Mr. Chen said, nodding his head in agreement from time to time.

Mr. Chen also discovered that Yang Xiaotao's response was not blind, but only nodded when he got to the key points, which aroused his curiosity even more.

Behind the crowd, the directors and secretaries from various factories looked at the scene in front of them with great surprise.

At first, it was shocking enough that Chief Wang valued Yang Xiaotao, but then Chief Chen started talking again, and next to him, Mr. Huang and several other bosses from the Ministry of Machinery seemed to have a good relationship with Yang Xiaotao.

With this popularity, Yang Xiaotao was probably the only one present.

I was a little proud at first, but when I saw this scene, I lost all thoughts of comparison.

"Old Chen, let's talk about it later. Let's get down to business today."

Seeing that Mr. Chen wanted to continue, Wang Huzi hurriedly spoke.

Mr. Chen smiled and said, "Look, I lose track of time as soon as I talk about it."

"Let's go, today is a big day and a good day."

"Let's go see it together."

Mr. Chen said and everyone nodded.

Yang Youning and Liu Huaimin led everyone to the stage that had been set up.

The crowd was headed by Mr. Chen, followed by hundreds of people, and all came to the rostrum.

At this time, the workers of the steel plant were also gathered around. Seeing so many leaders coming, they couldn't stop talking. Even those workers who participated in the next action felt a heavy weight on their shoulders.

Under the arrangements of the staff, everyone came to the venue and sat down.

In front of the rostrum, the heads of each machine department sat on both sides of the rostrum, with Mr. Chen and Wang Huzi sitting in the middle, and Yang Youning and Liu Huaimin at the ends of both sides.

Behind them were Lao Xia, Lao Sun and others.

As for the various factory secretaries, factory directors and key personnel who came together, they sat on both sides of the rostrum.

Fortunately, the experimental factory area is large enough. With so many people sitting there, we can do a lot of things around.

Everyone was seated, and while the staff was pouring water for everyone, Yang Xiaotao and An Zhongsheng had a brief exchange to confirm the process, and then looked at Liu Huaimin and Yang Youning, as well as Chen Gongguan Zhiyong and others who were entertaining the staff.

The two looked around and saw that everyone was already in place and all preparations were completed, and they nodded to Yang Xiaotao.

In front of the rostrum, two large iron speakers were hung on wooden poles. In the front left position, there was a stool on a table with a microphone on it.

Yang Xiaotao arranged his clothes and sorted out the process in his mind. Then he raised his head, took a deep breath, and stepped on the bench to the podium.

Everyone's eyes were instantly intertwined with Yang Xiaotao.

When Yang Xiaotao came to the center, he first saluted Mr. Chen and other people in front of the rostrum. Everyone looked at Yang Xiaotao, and many people nodded lightly.

Then he faced the workers in front who were preparing to take action, as well as the steel plant workers watching from all sides.

At this moment, all the eyes that can be seen are on this body.

"Good morning, fellow workers."

"I am the host of this meeting and the on-site conductor of this experiment, Yang Xiaotao."

Yang Xiaotao spoke into the microphone with a loud voice that could be heard by the whole audience.

Then he looked across the audience and said, "Welcome everyone, come here on this sunny day to watch this oxygen top-blown converter experiment that we have been preparing for, long awaited, and eager to succeed."

"On behalf of the comrades of the Red Star Machinery Factory and the Red Star Steel Factory, I welcome all of you comrades from all over the world who have come despite your busy schedule."

bang bang bang bang

Applause came from all directions, and the sound was thunderous.

"And the leaders who have been paying attention to us and encouraging us, thank them."

"Thank you to them for trusting us, and thank them for steering the ship we are moving forward."

bang bang bang

When the voice ended, Yang Xiaotao faced everyone with a serious expression.

“Safety is more important than Mount Taishan!”

"This is not a slogan, but a matter of life and death that is closely related to our workers and each of us."

"Now, please everyone stand up and observe a minute of silence for our comrades who died in the accident."

As Yang Xiaotao's voice fell, the leaders who were sitting in front of the rostrum stood up one after another, and those wearing hats even put their hats on their arms.

The soldiers from the security department who were on guard around him also straightened their guns.

At this moment, the entire venue was silent.

This moment is sacred and solemn.

Time passed by second by second, and instead of being anxious, everyone felt calm.

A kind of perseverance to move forward.

"It's time, please sit down."

Yang Xiaotao lowered his wrist and everyone sat back in their seats.

After this scene, the scene was in order.

No one spoke anymore, no one looked at the book in their hands, as if everything had become solemn.

Yang Xiaotao took a deep breath and said, "Comrades, let us work together to complete the unfinished business of the martyrs."

"Let their souls in heaven hear the cheers of our success and witness this inspiring moment!"

Yang Xiaotao showed his hands, raised his arms and cheered.

bang bang bang

This time, the applause that rang out from the surroundings was far more violent than ever before.

"Report to the commander-in-chief that the defense brigade is all in place."

When the sound stopped, Wang Hao strode forward, came to the rostrum and shouted loudly.

"Report to the commander-in-chief, the fire brigade is all in place."

"Report to the commander-in-chief, the medical team is all in place."

"Report to the Commander-in-Chief, all staff of the Red Star Steel Plant are already in place, requesting instructions."

Finally, An Zhongsheng ran to the podium with an excited expression and shouted to Yang Xiaotao what he had been holding back for a long time.

Yang Xiaotao glanced at the people below, turned around, came three meters in front of the rostrum, and faced Mr. Chen, "Report to the leader, Hongxing Steel Plant, the oxygen top-blown converter experiment is ready, please start."

Yang Xiaotao's voice is loud and can be heard by people nearby.

Mr. Chen had already stood up and looked at Yang Xiaotao, "I agree to start."

"We, comrade workers, will win."

"Yes, I, comrade workers, will win!"

Yang Xiaotao shouted excitedly, turned around and came to the podium, "Comrades, the experiment begins."

"Our steel factory will definitely win!"

"Must win!"

beep beep beep

When the whistle sounded, a group of workers ran towards the intended target and quickly entered their posts.
