Scholars in the courtyard

Yang Xiaotao returned to the office.

As soon as I entered the house, Lou Xiao'e was not there. She must be in the Publicity Department at this time.

As soon as I returned to my seat, I heard a knock at the door.

"Mr. Yang!"

Zhang Guanyu walked in quickly, with a slight hesitation on his face.

"Director Zhang, sit down."

Yang Xiaotao was a little surprised when he saw the person coming, but when he saw what he was holding, he was a little clearer.

Ever since he discussed the aircraft engine with Yang Xiaotao, Zhang Guanyu has devoted all his energy to it.

I guess I came here to show him the drawings this time.

"Mr. Yang, it's okay. I'll just take up your time for a while."

Zhang Guanyu knew that Yang Xiaotao was a happy person and didn't like to mess around, so he came straight to him and spread out the drawings in his hand, "Mr. Yang, this is a simple engine I designed based on the opinions you put forward last time."

As the drawings were spread out, Yang Xiaotao picked up the jar and looked at it.

It can be seen that Zhang Guanyu has put great thought into this, and some design ideas and key positions are handled well.

"I designed this based on the design ideas of our engine, and the workshop workers also gave me a lot of inspiration."

"Chen Chonghan?"

"right!"

"This guy, I haven't seen him since I came back."

Zhang Guanyu was interrupted and was a little at a loss.

Yang Xiaotao quickly apologized and smiled, "Continue. Let's talk about the combustion chamber."

"Yes, the combustion chamber. I will reduce the size of the combustion chamber, and the corresponding data requirements will also be reduced."

The more Zhang Guanyu talked, the more excited and confident he became.

Just when Yang Xiaotao was about to continue reading, Liu Huaimin's voice came from the door.

"Xiao Tao. Mr. Huang asked us to go there immediately."

Yang Xiaotao nodded, then looked at Zhang Guanyu, "Director Zhang, leave me the drawings first. I'll look at them later."

"Okay, okay."

"Mr. Yang, just be busy first."

After saying that, Yang Xiaotao pushed the door open and walked out.

Zhang Guanyu thought for a moment, rolled up the drawing, put it aside, and closed the door expectantly.

One machine department.

When Yang Xiaotao and Liu Huaimin came over, Mr. Xia had already asked director Liu Ruichao to wait at the door.

After seeing the two of them, he immediately stepped forward and said, "You two are finally here. Mr. Huang got furious in the room after receiving the call. This is the first time I have seen you in so many years."

"Mr. Xia is also scolding me, as if he wants to investigate from above."

"You two need to be mentally prepared."

Liu Ruichao said as he walked towards the office building very fast.

Yang Xiaotao and Liu Huaimin looked at each other, and both could see the heaviness in each other's eyes.

When they arrived outside the office, there was no sound coming from the room, but Liu Ruichao's reminder to turn around still made their hearts sink.

Sometimes, silence means explosion.

Knock on the door, the room is silent.

After a long while, the door opened. Mr. Xia nodded after seeing the two of them, and then they walked into the house.

Seeing the messy paper and file boxes on the ground, neither of them dared to say anything.

After seeing the two of them, Mr. Huang stared at Yang Xiaotao and then said, "Have you brought a cigarette?"

Yang Xiaotao quickly took out a box of cigarettes, lit one for Mr. Huang first, and then gave it to Mr. Xia before placing the cigarettes on the table.

"Tell me, what's going on!"

Mr. Huang smoked half of his cigarette, dropped the ashes on the table, and then spoke.

Just as Yang Xiaotao was about to speak, Liu Huaimin stood up and said, "Chief, our machinery factory is responsible for the unfavorable supervision of this matter, and we are willing to accept the punishment."

"Bullshit."

"If you're going to punish me, you need me. I'm here to explain the situation, not to take responsibility."

Mr. Xia cursed at the side, and Liu Huaimin quickly shut up.

"Sit down and speak slowly."

Huang Lao spoke again.

Liu Huaimin then sat down, and then Yang Xiaotao coughed lightly and talked about what happened.

"Chief, this matter has to start when we developed the TiG01 alloy."

“At the beginning, after we developed titanium alloy, when we were manufacturing aircraft engine fan blades, we found that after the hardness and strength of the titanium alloy reached the requirements, the weight it held exceeded the design requirements, so we asked the research institute to improve the alloy again. With TiG01 alloy.”

"After this alloy was manufactured, we followed the regulations agreed upon when the institute was established, and each machine department gave a little away."

"At the same time, corresponding adjustments were made based on the needs of each machine department."

"Because we use a lot, most of it, about nine-tenths, is kept for our own use."

Speaking of this, Yang Xiaotao raised his head and glanced at Mr. Huang and Mr. Xia.

"We did receive it."

Mr. Xia and Mr. Huang whispered.

"Well, continue."

Seeing this, Yang Xiaotao continued.

"Later, Mr. Wang found out about the TiG01 alloy, and he came to make a request."

"At that time, it happened to be a time when metallurgy had problems, and the situation was relatively complicated. Then, after bargaining with Mr. Wang, we gave him half of the remaining nine ingredients."

"Finally, he asked the First Machinery Department, the Third Machinery Department and the logistics department if it was useful, and we didn't know."

"But since no one responded after so long, we thought it was useless."

"So, Mr. Wang also asked for the tenth."

"That's just the way it is."

After Yang Xiaotao finished speaking briefly, Mr. Huang picked up another cigarette and lit it. The room was filled with smoke.

After a long time, Mr. Huang looked at Yang Xiaotao and said, "One question."

"When you first developed this TiG01 alloy, did you know the uses of this alloy?"

Yang Xiaotao frowned, "Chief, we developed this just for the purpose of making airplanes. Of course we know."

"Um."

Mr. Huang responded, "Then why don't you take the initiative to remind them that you have materials that are more suitable for aircraft engines?"

After asking this question, Mr. Xia's expression changed.

This is a fatal question.

Liu Huaimin also realized the seriousness of his words and wanted to speak.

Yang Xiaotao smiled bitterly, "Chief, can I ask you a question first?"

"you say."

"Chief, do you think the engine we are researching is powerful, or is the engine they are researching more advanced?"

Huang Lao's smoking movement paused.

"Put another way, do you think our engine can match theirs?"

Mr. Huang put down his cigarette.

"Chief, you see, you think so yourself, right?"

"You and other comrades all think that the engines built by our machinery factory are just children's toys, right?"

"One of the blades on this kid's toy is broken. I found a new one and I think it's good. Then we took this and told you that this one is more suitable. It's more suitable than the one you use. What do you think?"

"Do you think our child is joking? Maybe he will be beaten."

After Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, Mr. Huang was speechless.

Because at first, when they heard that the machinery factory was working on aircraft engines, they really regarded it as a trivial matter.

Just like Yang Xiaotao said, who cares about a toy made by a child?

Compared with the No. 3 Machinery Department and the Logistics Department, which spent a lot of resources to make the engine, what Yang Xiaotao and his machine factory made was just a small toy.

After hearing what Yang Xiaotao said, Mr. Xia nodded in agreement.

"Old Huang, I think Xiao Tao is right."

"I know it makes sense, but are those two guys reasonable people?"

Xia Lao was speechless.

Mr. Zhang from the Three Machinery Department is a little better. After all, he has been in a relationship with Mr. Huang for many years and is a reasonable person.

But if Mr. Qin from the logistics department and Mr. Wang from the Seventh Machinery Department get into a fight, no one can control it.

"Chief, look at this, you really don't blame us."

"We just want to get some materials and do something, but we don't think too much about it."

"Who knew they didn't use it originally, but then they used it again? It's so difficult to take care of them."

Liu Huaimin was also aggrieved at this time. Mr. Xia raised his eyebrows after hearing this. Why did he feel that these words should be Yang Xiaotao's taste.

"Okay, you are here to solve the problem. Now that we have said it, let's discuss what to do."

Mr. Huang took out a cigarette and threw it to Yang Xiaotao, and then gave another one to Liu Huaimin.

The two of them lit it up and finally no longer had to smoke secondhand smoke.

"If you have any ideas, please tell me immediately."

"At this time, don't think about escaping unscathed."

Yang Xiaotao and Liu Huaimin looked at each other, and then said, "Chief, we have an immature method."

"explain."

"Okay."

"At the beginning, the site for this research center was provided by our First Machinery Department, and most of the people were provided by the machinery factory. Later, the Third Machinery Department and the Logistics Department provided the materials, and the Seventh Machinery Department provided the manpower."

"But to be honest, the people who do the final work are from our No. 1 Machinery Department."

"So I thought, if they think it's unfair, the formula has been handed over anyway, and they have the materials. They can find a steel factory to produce it, so I think it's better to just do it."

"Just do it alone and do what you do individually."

Mr. Xia spoke from the side.

"By the way, I've wanted to do this for a long time."

Mr. Huang glanced at Mr. Xia, "What do you know?"

"Every tree that is beautiful in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. Revolution is not about trying to pull up the mountain, but it is also about making more comrades and less opponents."

"You can't do this."

Liu Huaimin and Yang Xiaotao were speechless after hearing this.

Since Mr. Huang said no, there was nothing they could do.

Although they were not from the First Machinery Department, they did not dare to refute what Mr. Huang said.

Ring ring ring

The phone on the table suddenly rang. Mr. Huang put out his cigarette and picked up the phone.

"Hey, who's there?"

"Zhang Ban? You're back."

"Okay, okay, then let's go tomorrow."

"Okay, that's it."

After a few words on the phone, Mr. Huang hung up.

"This is from Lao Zhang. They just returned to their residence."

Then he looked at Yang Xiaotao and the two of them, "Mr. Chen will have a meeting tomorrow, so don't go late."

"Go to Mr. Chen's place?"

"Nonsense, you are under his control. If you don't go there, why are you here?"

Huang Lao said angrily, but he still felt very useful.

It's like her daughter being bullied outside and returning to her parents' home for warmth.

These two guys just treat them as their mother-in-law.

"Okay, I won't keep you two for dinner, so get out of here."

Yang Xiaotao quickly got up and followed Liu Huaimin out of the office.

"Old Liu, this matter is probably settled."

As soon as he left the office door, Yang Xiaotao said with a smile.

Liu Huaimin still held a cigarette in his hand. He smoked just to satisfy his cravings. The smoke could not even pass through his throat. He could smoke one cigarette for half a day.

"What do you say?"

Yang Xiaotao lowered his head, "Did you see that Mr. Zhang from the Third Machinery Department called first and then said that he was going to Mr. Chen? What does this mean? It means that they have already discussed it."

"The First Ministry of Machine Building, the Third Ministry of Machine Building, plus our immediate superior, Mr. Chen, that's half of it."

"Mr. Qin will definitely fight with Mr. Wang, but they are also weak and have nothing to do with us in the end."

Liu Huaimin took a look and finally asked, "So you are relieved?"

"Well, that's not the case."

Yang Xiaotao restrained his expression and said in a serious tone, "Tomorrow, we still have to pass a level."

"Then you are still proud."

"No, absolutely not!"
