Scholars in the courtyard

"Expansion?"

"Lao Xia, you have to think carefully. This expansion is not a trivial matter. If there is no reasonable reason, the superiors will not approve it."

Mr. Sun, who was still fighting with Mr. Xia just now, frowned and said, speaking of it, the two of them still have a good relationship in private, but they just have different positions.

"Yes, Lao Xia, this expansion involves all aspects. Personnel transfers can only be arranged and work adjusted. You are old, why bother?"

Mr. Duan beside him also started to persuade. They all knew that this expansion would definitely reshuffle the steel rolling mill and even add some departments. This was a big deal for the First Machinery Department.

Everyone persuaded Mr. Xia not to be impulsive.

But only Mr. Huang remained silent and agreed with Lao Xia's courage.

In his eyes, does the First Machinery Department need so many mediocre factories?

No, what he wants is a locomotive that can drive a unit to take off and sprint on the track, not a carriage that relies on an old locomotive to move slowly.

What Mr. Xia said has already happened to him.

It's just that the time was not yet ripe at that time. Now, Lao Xia has brought up this matter, which is exactly what he wants.

Mr. Xia heard everyone talking, but he didn't care. He stood up and rubbed his chest, "Old Huang is right. The work done in this steel rolling mill seems to be a lot and very complicated. It seems to be some other lathe factory, It’s work in a machine shop, but don’t forget it.”

Mr. Xia straightened up and said seriously, "Don't forget, you guys, this was made by people themselves, not by robbing some machine tools or machinery factories. On the contrary, it was the machine tools and machinery factories that took a lot of advantage. "

"This relationship of priority cannot be reversed."

"You might say, let the steel rolling mills do their job, and let the professional machine tools and machinery factories do professional things."

"But have you ever thought about it, if a professional can't even compete with someone else's hobby, then who is more professional?"

Everyone was silent, they all knew what Mr. Xia said.

Call them selfish or shameless, but this is the current situation in the country.

The whole country is playing a game of chess. If we want to promote revolutionary construction and develop industry, we can't live behind closed doors, we can't be selfish, and we can't be selfish.

Because of this, they are thinking of splitting up the steel rolling mill and promoting the development of related majors.

This split is not only the split of the technology industry, but also the mobilization of relevant personnel, allowing them to exert their light and heat in more important positions.

However, all this seemed a bit pale in Mr. Xia's questioning.

"Besides, there is the most important point."

"What can the steel rolling mills do now? Who can guarantee what they can do in the future?"

"Who can guarantee that this is the limit of the steel rolling mill?"

A figure flashed in Mr. Xia's eyes, as if all the causes could be attributed to this person.

Perhaps he made the steel rolling mill what it is today, but without the stage of the steel rolling mill, who made him?

"Lao Xia, you are right."

Seeing that everyone was silent, Mr. Huang stepped forward and said, "I have been thinking about what the locomotive of revolutionary construction should look like?"

"Is there something I can learn from? What should I do if I can't?"

"Following the trend and lying down together? Then who will drive?"

"After so many years of liberation, have some people gotten used to it and forgotten the hardships and simplicity, the difficulties of starting a business, and the original oath!"

Huang Lao said at the end, everyone's spirits were lifted, and their faces turned red when they thought of the recent reactions below.

Those guys have become pigs in the pen. They only work according to their tasks. Without their tasks, they are like herding sheep.

This is still a big factory, and key units are like this, so what do the small factories down there look like?

"We don't need people like this, and we don't need people with this kind of mentality. I will never see a sheep factory like this in the Machinery Department."

Then he looked at Mr. Xia and said, "What Mr. Xia said this time is good. I agree with it."

"I just want this steel rolling mill to be like a wolf, a wolf that eats meat when it is caught. Look at those sheep mills, how dare they stay there."

Hearing what Mr. Huang said, everyone felt a chill in their hearts. They knew Mr. Huang too well, he was definitely a 'cruel' master.

He said that if he wanted to unleash a wolf, then this wolf would definitely be the most ferocious weapon.

Everyone looked at each other and thought, 'The wolf is coming'.

You must have a meeting when you go back, hold a meeting, let your men move and work, and don't become prey under the wolf's kiss.

Mr. Xia opened his mouth, did he mean this?

He just wanted to say that the steel rolling mill can do a lot of things, so expand it and do these things well, that's all.

Lao Huang, you spoke too loudly, I can't understand you.

"Lao Xia, you go back and plan carefully to see how to expand."

"Write it down and give it to me. I'll report it to my superiors."

"As soon as possible."

"Okay, put the table back in its place, I have something else to do."

After speaking, Mr. Huang opened the door and left, leaving a group of old men staring at each other and sighing.

"I, that's not what I meant."

"Old Huang, he used me."

Mr. Xia suddenly reacted and shouted.

Everyone also reacted and smiled bitterly.

"Lao Xia, our fight was in vain."

Mr. Sun rubbed his lower back and stepped forward with a wry smile. Mr. Xia nodded when he heard this.

After a moment, he shook his head and said, "Monkey Sun, don't try to fool me. Fourteen to eleven, I win."

"Bah, you are cheating"

"This is called skill."

As they talked, the two came together again and discussed going to the steel rolling mill to attend the handover ceremony tomorrow.

"Don't go if you're busy."

When Mr. Xia heard that Mr. Sun wanted to follow him to have a look, he immediately refused. This guy couldn't hold it in. He didn't know what he would do if he went there.

"Of course you have to go for such an important thing. Otherwise, if you ask Lao Wang, they will go too."

As he said this, he looked at the people behind him. Mr. Xia turned back, and they smiled when they saw him.

Yes, these guys must go.

Thinking of this, Mr. Xia felt that these guys must have bad intentions.

"Lao Xia, don't worry, let's go and see what this wolf is like."

Mr. Sun said with a smile, but there was something he didn't say, "If it's flashy, they can be more careful. If it's sharp, then they have to be more careful." ’

"It's up to you, but I'll say it first. I haven't decided on the candidate yet. Who wants to leak the secret? Humph."

"I know, I know. Let's go, kill two games, let's go."

Hearing this, Mr. Xia's body froze, and he wanted to refuse.

The next day, at dawn, Yang Xiaotao put on clean clothes and tidied up before getting on his bicycle and going out.

Today is the day for the handover of machine tools and the day for the handover ceremony of the steel rolling mill.

In fact, according to Yang Xiaotao's idea, just disassemble the machine tool into several parts, pull it onto the truck, and drive away.

The factory is very busy, so it’s not a good idea to spare some time to do something.

But Yang Youning couldn't do it. Not only did he have to hold a handover ceremony, he also had to make it bigger and more formal.

In Chen Gong's words, it is just a show to let others understand the hard power of the steel rolling mill.

Not only in this regard, Yang Xiaotao, as the team leader and designer, also has to give a speech.

Well, the kind of speech you prepare yourself.

Headache.

After riding to the steel rolling mill, Yang Ning ran over to greet the guests together after sitting in the office for a while.

Yang Xiaotao followed him downstairs and immediately stared at the group of old men in front of him. Well, a group of big guys were coming towards him, and Mr. Xia was only in the second row.

This shows how high the status of the two big guys in front is.

"Those are Mr. Huang from the First Machinery Department and Mr. Qin from the Logistics Department!"

Next to him, Chen Gong was doing some popular science for Yang Xiaotao, and then gave a thumbs up, "It's all about this."

At this moment, Yang Xiaotao finally understood why Yang Youning wanted to make such a big fuss.

Soon, the big guys came forward and met with the people from the steel rolling mill one by one.

"Old Qin, what should we do? Let's go for a walk first?"

Mr. Huang looked like he was introducing guests to his home. Mr. Qin was not young but energetic. He was wearing a pair of round-frame reading glasses and was very serious.

"Guests do as they please. When you get to your place, you make the decision."

"Haha, okay." Mr. Huang smiled, "There are many things worth seeing in this steel rolling mill, especially the memorial hall. Let's go and take a look later."

"OK!"

Yang Youning listened and immediately stepped forward to lead the way, the smile on his face never falling.

While he was in a hurry, Mr. Xia waved to Yang Xiaotao. Yang Xiaotao didn't dare to hesitate and ran to him.

Mr. Xia introduced Yang Xiaotao to several old people, and they quickly met Yang Xiaotao. Their eyes stayed on Yang Xiaotao for a while.

Everyone around saw it, but they pretended to be fine and continued walking forward.

"Chief!"

"Well, the machine tool task was completed well this time."

"Thank you for the compliment, chief."

Mr. Xia nodded, then

"How are the arrangements for the diesel engine going?"

"Chief, it is already under trial production. Some materials need to be mobilized, but it should be ready for trial next Monday."

"Okay. I heard that this diesel engine is a single-cylinder type?"

"Yes, it is a one-cylinder diesel engine that uses diesel fuel."

Yang Xiaotao followed Mr. Xia and briefly introduced the diesel engine as he walked.

He didn't stop until he reached the workshop. Both the leaders and people from the steel rolling mill around him were very envious of Yang Xiaotao's "favor".

"Two heads, this is the production workshop of Feiying pressure cooker. We have now achieved independent production."

"What you see now is the Hong Chong No. 1 punch press, which uses the high efficiency of the punch press to produce pot bodies and lids..."

Yang Youning came to the punch production line to introduce the production status.

Everyone watched the workers skillfully operate the punch press. Under the action of the machine, a piece of steel was extruded according to the designed mold to complete the production. Then it was put to one side and the quality was inspected by specialized workers. After passing the test, it was sent along the work conveyor belt. Arriving at the assembly area, another piece of steel was already being rapidly formed.

Seeing such an efficient production model, Mr. Huang clapped his hands in admiration, while Mr. Qin kept nodding.

Everyone was so surprised that they were thinking for a while.

Mr. Sun followed Mr. Xia with a solemn expression. When he saw Yang Xiaotao beside him, he took the initiative to ask, "How many units can you do in a day with this efficiency?"

Yang Xiaotao didn't know this person, but if he could work side by side with Mr. Xia, his status would certainly not be low, so he answered seriously: "Leader, if we work full time now, a thousand units can be produced."

"If you need to rush the work, you should be able to do it with 1,500!"

"A thousand? My dear, this punch can hold up a car."

Mr. Sun opened his mouth, feeling that none of the factories under his command could compare with him.

"A workshop? Old Sun, you think too highly of yourself."

Mr. Xia was smiling on the side. Mr. Sun opened his mouth, but still had nothing to say in reply. He really had nothing to say.

"Did you design this punch yourself?"

Mr. Sun ignored Mr. Xia, pointed at the machine tool, and asked.

"Yes, now we can have two units offline per week, but we may be able to increase that in the future."

Yang Xiaotao said and everyone nodded.

"Two units a week is still too slow. This is a lot of orders!"

Hearing this, before Yang Xiaotao spoke, Mr. Xia glared at him, "It's not your fault that there are so many orders and tasks."

Mr. Sun shrank his head after hearing this.

Half of the orders placed for the steel rolling mill were made by him. "It's all normal procedures. Besides, Lao Xia, you've placed a lot."

After saying that, he looked at Yang Xiaotao again, "After you speed up, adjust it and make my few units first. I need them urgently!"

Yang Xiaotao was a little embarrassed after hearing this. When Mr. Xia saw it, he immediately understood what was going on.

"It doesn't matter if it's urgent or not. Didn't you say you have to follow the procedure?"

Mr. Sun was so angry that he wanted to speak again, but he just remembered what Mr. Xia had told him before and didn't say much.

It’s just that I have a deeper understanding of the strength of the steel rolling mill in my heart.

This is definitely a hungry wolf licking its fangs.
