Scholars in the courtyard

After hearing Mr. Huang's assurance, Mr. Xia nodded.

But Mr. Sun still had some concerns, "There are more machines and higher efficiency, which is naturally a good thing."

"But we also need to have corresponding tasks!"

"Without tasks, production capacity cannot be utilized. This is not a long-term solution!"

Mr. Huang frowned, then looked at Mr. Xia, "Old Xia, what do you think?"

Mr. Xia tapped the table lightly, "The workload is finite. We can increase it appropriately, but it is impossible to increase it all the time."

"Otherwise, a bunch of unused stuff will be produced and piled up in the warehouse, and we won't be able to account for it!"

Mr. Sun agreed, "And this may waste resources, occupy other production needs, and affect production!"

"right!"

Mr. Xia responded, "So I think we can work on the quality requirements of the mission!"

"Quality requirements?"

Mr. Huang was suspicious, "Why does it sound a bit like the internal audit department of a machinery factory?"

"Yes, that's where I got the idea. I plan to raise the level to a higher level for all the next tasks."

"Just like screws, the normal requirements are practical grade, and then everything produced and processed must reach high-quality grade. If not, the task is not completed!"

"If you can't complete the task, what benefits can you talk about?"

"I still want to deduct their money."

After Mr. Xia finished speaking, Mr. Sun took a deep breath.

"Lao Xia, if you do this, you are destroying their iron rice bowl!"

Mr. Xia raised his head and looked out the window, with a heavy look on his face, "You are right, I just want to break this iron rice bowl!"

"We just want to tell them that what we want are revolutionary workers, not workers who are unenterprising and greedy for pleasure!"

"You think that if you hold an iron rice bowl, no one can cure them?"

"dream!"

"Well said!"

Mr. Huang stood up again, "This is a golden rice bowl, an iron rice bowl!"

"People say outside that we hold an iron rice bowl, eat from the food supply, and live the life of city dwellers!"

"Some people take it seriously? They think it's effortless."

"joke!"

Mr. Huang glanced at the two of them with stern eyes.

“What kind of worker do you call yourself if you don’t work hard? If you don’t have a hammer in your hand, what kind of worker do you think you are?”

"I work all day long and wait to die as a foreign worker. Is this called a revolutionary worker?"

"Lao Xia is right. Some things cannot be justified just because there are many people, and you cannot be afraid to touch them just because there is an iron rice bowl."

"I want to tell these people this time that the iron rice bowl has weight. If you can't hold it, don't blame me for smashing it to the ground!"

After the three people finished talking in the conference room, Mr. Xia and Mr. Sun left one after another.

Seventh Machinery Department.

Mr. Wang walked in from the outside with his head held high with a straight step, sat on his seat, then picked up the cigarette pot, pressed the cut tobacco into the pot, took out a box of matches, carefully took out one, and lit the cigarette pot with a hiss.

"A pack of cigarettes in the morning is better than a living god."

Mr. Wang leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes, enjoying himself before going to work.

But just when Mr. Wang was about to click again, someone walked in from outside.

He is not tall and sleepy, but his clothes are very neat.

The person standing at the door looked at it, thought of something, and walked in.

"Good morning, old money."

Mr. Wang said hello. The person coming was the second in command of the Seven Machinery Department. The two of them had not worked together for a long time, but they cooperated very well with each other.

One is in charge and the other is in charge of outside. It can be said that they complement each other.

"Old Wang, it's early for you too."

Qian Lao walked in and ignored the smoke in the room.

Wang Laoduan sat down, put the pipe and pot aside, and then asked, "The research team will set off today."

"Yes, Comrade Ran Zhiqiang will lead the team this afternoon."

"Will it succeed this time?"

Mr. Qian shook his head, "It's hard to say. Any experiment has the risk of failure. All we can do is identify these risks to ensure final success."

Mr. Wang chirped twice more, his eyes twinkling.

"They spent a lot of money and food this time."

Hearing this, Mr. Qin nodded, "This is the last level of testing. It affects whether our satellite can be put into orbit."

"Critical."

Mr. Wang curled his lips and said, "Last time, you said this the last time, but the result was that there was nothing left except a lot of flowers."

"If this fails again, we really won't have any food left."

Mr. Qian was silent for a moment, "This is not the solution."

"In order to increase revenue and reduce expenditure, we have almost reached the extreme in reducing expenditure. The food subsidy for comrades is the lowest among several units."

Mr. Wang also showed helplessness after hearing this, and then raised the cigarette pot in his hand, "Look, I can only smoke broken leaves now, and there are several other old guys who don't have cigarettes in their pockets."

"But what can I do? Now the national resources are being allocated to the third party and logistics. Just for the sake of small planes, we all have to move to the back."

"If you want to eat meat, it depends on your own abilities."

Mr. Wang said helplessly, "But there are more wolves and less meat. We were established late, so we can't compete with others."

After hearing this, Mr. Qian sighed again, "There is no way. Our experiment itself is a bottomless pit. Once it rises to the sky, all money is spent."

"Who says it isn't?"

Mr. Wang also understands the other party's difficulties, but the reality always makes him unable to accept it calmly.

"I'll confirm with Director Ran later to ensure success the first time, which can be regarded as saving money."

"I hope so."

Mr. Wang does not have much confidence in this kind of experiment.

The main thing is that there have been too many failures, not to mention him, even the experimenters are used to it.

Before the two of them finished speaking, there was the sound of walking in the corridor.

After a while, Ran's father came to the door with a folder and said, "Chief, leader."

Seeing that both of them were there, Ran's father stepped forward and asked.

"Director Ran, I was talking about you just now. I really said Cao Cao and Cao Cao are here."

Qian Lao smiled and said, "Are you here for this experiment?"

Ran's father nodded and put the folder on the table, "Chief, leader, this is the plan for this experiment. The focus is on overcoming the last problem in a targeted manner. If everything goes well, we will take another step forward."

"In addition, there are also the consumption of materials for this test, the personnel arrangement of the test, and safety issues, all of which are included."

Mr. Qian took it and looked at it seriously.

He had to deal with these matters himself.

Mr. Wang put the pipe pot away and started joking.

"Director Ran, you were able to get a threshing machine from the machinery factory last time, and you took great credit for it."

"The funds obtained in this way have been of great help to us."

Ran's father smiled after hearing this, "Chief, I just did something insignificant. The people who really should be grateful are the comrades in the machinery factory."

"Well, you're right. I'll go to the machine factory with you when I have time. We should thank you in person."

Hearing this, Ran's father said nothing more.

He knew in his heart that if he went to a machine shop to say thank you, he might as well go to catch the autumn wind.

He couldn't afford to lose that face.

Especially since the machine shop has made so much money this time, if he finds out, he will definitely jump up and attack the rich.

After Mr. Qian finished reading it, he handed the test report to Mr. Wang for review.

"In principle, there is no problem. It just depends on the specific details."

"You need to keep good records here so that if something goes wrong, you can find it quickly..."

Father Ran nodded, this was his job.

At this time, Mr. Wang also finished reading the report. Although he only glanced at it, the expenses marked in the last column still made his eyes twitch.

Half a million.

The consumables for one experiment cost 500,000 yuan, not including the food and accommodation of the personnel.

In fact, in terms of personnel treatment, their Seventh Machinery Department has done its best, but it is suffering from a shortage of materials and there is no way to improve it.

Mr. Wang closed the report and did not think about the numbers above.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and the three of them looked up. It was Mr. Qian's secretary who came in and put a document on the table.

Mr. Qian glanced at the document, then frowned, then opened it and read the contents inside.

After a while, Mr. Qian reluctantly let go.

"What's wrong? What happened again?"

Mr. Wang saw something was wrong with Mr. Qian's expression, so he asked, "I think this is from the Intermediate Court. What are they doing?"

Mr. Qian nodded, "It's a notification from the Intermediate People's Court."

Then he looked at Ran's father who was standing, "They added another three kilograms of weight this time."

"What? Added it again?"

"Or six pounds?"

Ran's father asked in surprise. He really couldn't figure out what the guys in the middle courtyard were thinking. How could they experiment by just adding weight casually?

"Leader, this, this is too hasty."

"I told them last time not to keep changing. Our experiments need stable data, but with these changes going back and forth, we can't continue at all."

"Chief."

Ran's father said excitedly. He originally had objections to the overweight of the satellite, but now it's okay. Not only is it overweight, but it also needs to be heavier.

Doesn't this make it more difficult for them?

"Well, you can see for yourself."

Ran's father took the document and looked at it, then his expression changed.

The other party made it clear that a logo should be mounted on each component to show the national honor.

this.

This is all flying up into the sky, who can I show it to?

But Father Ran didn't dare to object to this.

I don't object, this added six pounds will be an important change for the Rockets.

At the very least, this experiment is somewhat redundant.

"Chief, leader, is this experiment still going on?"

Mr. Wang's face darkened and he didn't speak. He didn't understand the experiment, but he also understood the impact of changing the weight.

It's just that everything that needs to be prepared has been prepared, and the money that needs to be spent has been spent. You can't give up halfway.

"conduct."

"The experiment continues, let's find a solution to the problem first."

Finally, Mr. Qian agreed.

After hearing this, Ran's father nodded slowly. Mr. Qin also stood up from the side, and the two of them were about to leave the office.

Just as he walked into the corridor, Mr. Qin suddenly asked, "This test must be done more carefully."

“We don’t have much research funding left.”

After hearing this, Ran's father hesitated in his heart, should he tell the chief about the machinery factory?

If that's the case, wouldn't he be cheating his own son-in-law?

But if we don’t talk about it, how can we do research if we don’t have the funds?

Father Ran thought for a while, then sighed.

Anyway, it’s not just once or twice that my son-in-law has been tricked. As his father-in-law, if he fails, he should fail.

At the very least, it’s worthy of your own research.

Thinking of this, Ran's father made a decision in his heart.

"Leader, I heard that Red Star Machinery Factory reached a deal with a foreign country yesterday, and said it earned nearly 10 million."

"Ten million?"

"Yes, it's still alliance currency."

Ran's father said categorically, and Qian Lao listened thoughtfully.

"Who did you listen to?"

"We talked about it at the dinner table last night."

Mr. Qian understood instantly that the people who had dinner with Ran's father were probably family members.

And who else in the family knew about this news except Yang Xiaotao?

It would be a lie to say that he was not moved by the information provided by Ran's father.

Especially now, it is even more urgent.

10 million foreign exchange funds, converted into more than 20 million, if given to them, the experiments in the second half of the year will be settled.

No, it should be the cost of next year.

Even if it is divided a little, it will be enough for them.

"Leader, I will prepare it first."

Seeing that Mr. Qian was still thinking, Ran's father said softly.

Mr. Qian nodded, "Go, don't think too much about other things, do your work first."

Ran's father nodded and left immediately.

For this matter, just a nod will do, as for whether it can succeed, he has no idea.

I came to watch Ran's father leave, and sighed in my heart, "Old Ran has sacrificed too much for his work."

Then I walked into Mr. Wang's office again.

"Old Wang, it's your turn now."
