The Rise of Heavy Industry 1980

Early the next morning, I wanted to have a simple breakfast near the guest house, but I didn't expect Chen Xianglong to buy fried dough sticks, soy milk and side dishes and send them over. Chen Xianglong had already eaten it himself, and went to work after delivering breakfast.

In this way, Wang Chaoyang and his father had breakfast in the room, and then went to find Zhang Lianjun. Zhang's mother and daughter were not at home, saying that they had something to do and went out early in the morning. Zhang Lianjun sat on Wang Chaoyang's Santana and drove towards the unit.

Zhang Lianjun's work unit was subordinate to the logistics department of a certain military region, and according to the rules, it was inconvenient for the leaders of the military region to meet with outsiders, so Zhang Lianjun temporarily arranged a rest room for Wang Song and his son, and went to meet the leaders alone.

After waiting for about an hour, Zhang Lianjun returned to the lounge with a complicated expression on his face. Wang Song immediately became nervous and asked what was going on.

Zhang Lianjun said that he had just told the leaders about the idea that the Red Star Factory planned to purchase processing equipment, and the leaders were very interested in this matter itself, after all, it was a waste that a lot of equipment in the warehouse was idle. However, the equipment is an inherent asset of the logistics department, and it is very cumbersome to resell it to local enterprises. From debriefing to review to approval, it takes two months to say the least...... And it may not be approved.

"It's so troublesome!" Wang Song was very anxious, according to the situation described by Hu Qingbin yesterday, two months would definitely be too late.

"The procedures of the logistics department have always been like this, Lao Wang, you should understand. But you don't have to worry, I know you're in a hurry, so I discussed another idea with the leader. Zhang Lianjun said.

"What's the idea?" Wang Song hurriedly asked.

"There is a lot of idle equipment in the logistics department, and there are different records according to different backgrounds. Some of them are second-hand equipment of the local logistics department, which does not need to be reported to the higher authorities, and we have the right to dispose of this kind of equipment by ourselves. The leader said, if you need this kind of equipment in the Red Star Factory, you can give it to you. Zhang Lianjun said.

"Oh, that's not bad, can you take a look at the equipment first?" Wang Song is now full of thoughts on how to increase production, and is interested in any processing equipment.

Then under the guidance of Zhang Lianjun, Wang Song and Wang Chaoyang entered the idle warehouse of the logistics department. It was a huge brick factory with a dark blue raincloth on the roof, and the interior was huge, more than four basketball courts.

After Wang Song and Wang Chaoyang entered the door, they were shocked by the densely stacked equipment.

Turning, milling, planing, grinding, all kinds of processing lathes, almost all available, and there are many scattered electric equipment. The devices were not sorted and were laid out on the ground, all covered in a thick layer of dust.

"What a waste! I said Lao Zhang, your logistics department is too wasteful. So many good things are put here!" As a person who wanted to buy equipment but couldn't buy it, Wang Song's eyes lit up.

"It's wasteful, but there's nothing you can do. Our country's military equipment is backward, and the leaders above are bent on promoting equipment upgrades, and if the military industrial enterprises do not do well, they plan to let our logistics department do it, but I am not afraid of you to tell you, most of these people in the logistics department have not even studied in elementary school, how can we improve the equipment...... In the end, the projects assigned by the superiors are one after another, and the equipment is purchased one after another, but few projects can be completed, and the equipment is piled up into a mountain......"

When he said this, Zhang Lianjun sighed for a long time, looking very helpless and ashamed.

"Hey, it's not your fault, the soldiers in our era were all children of poor families, not to mention reading, and they didn't even know much to read. Wang Song couldn't help but sigh.

Wang Chaoyang asked: "Uncle Zhang, the logistics department can't do the projects you mentioned, haven't you thought about asking people from outside to help? Some experts in enterprises are still very powerful, right?"

Zhang Lianjun sighed: "This thing is easy to say, but it is difficult to do, and it is still a problem of procedures...... If the logistics department wants to entrust the project to a local enterprise, not to mention the cumbersome procedures, the audit system is still very strict, and some confidentiality regulations are involved...... In short, this road is very difficult to follow.

Wang Chaoyang nodded thoughtfully and didn't say anything more.

The three of them walked inside while talking, and finally came to the middle of the warehouse, Zhang Lianjun pointed to a space separated by canvas and said: "Here, the equipment in this area is from the local logistics department, and it has been idle for a few years, and you can take it away directly if you find something that can be used."

Wang Song and Wang Chaoyang stepped over the half-meter-high canvas fence to look at the equipment placed inside. There are more than 20 sets of equipment in it, including commonly used lathes and milling machines, but Wang Song and Wang Chaoyang are more and more depressed, because more than seventy percent of the equipment has been completely scrapped, which is no different from scrap iron.

In the remaining three percent, only one lathe can barely be, the nameplate says that the 78-year-old single-shaft lathe produced by Shenyang Machine Tool Factory, the general shaft hole can be processed. As for the rest, they are all scattered pieces of equipment, which are of no use to the Red Star Factory.

"It's better to have one than to go back empty-handed!" Zhang Lianjun said.

"That's right, it's just a pity...... Lao Zhang, can you report to the leader again, other equipment really can't be sold to me? I can't eat the braised pork in my mouth, I'm not reconciled!" Wang Song stretched his neck and looked at the other equipment in the warehouse, his heart itching.

"I'm afraid it's difficult, the system of the logistics department has always been very strict. Zhang Lianjun shook his head and said.

"Oh well. Wang Song sighed.

Next, Zhang Lianjun took Wang Song and his son to the office of the logistics department, paid the money for the selected lathe, issued a receipt, arranged the time to pick up the goods, and then the three of them left the logistics compound together.

Wang Chaoyang was driving in front of him, and he heard the father in the back row sighing incessantly. Equipment is his heart disease, but he returns empty-handed when he enters Baoshan, and everyone will sigh.

At this time, Wang Chaoyang asked: "Uncle Zhang, you just said that there are many projects in your logistics department, all of which are tasks assigned by your superiors, can you tell me a few? This is not a violation, right?"

Zhang Lianjun said: "Simply put, it's nothing." Let's talk about a task we received last month, X20 is the side steel plate material of a certain type of tank, and the superior asked us to test the anti-armor penetration ability of this steel plate...... Hey, I'm not afraid of your jokes, when I got this task, the leaders of the entire logistics department were dumbfounded, and I had no clue at all.

Wang Chaoyang said: "The meaning is not difficult, that is, to test how much penetration the steel plate can resist when the thickness of the fixed plate is fixed." As long as you know the mechanical properties of the steel plate, as well as the parameters of the armor-piercing projectile, this project is not very difficult. "

What are you talking about?" said Zhang Lianjun loudly.

"I said that this project is not very difficult, what's wrong Uncle Zhang, have you finished this project?" Wang Chaoyang asked.

"Done with a fart...... Chaoyang, don't interrupt, what did you just say, that this project is not very difficult? What ideas do you have, tell me quickly!" Zhang Lianjun was originally sitting in the back row, but at this time, he was in a hurry, and leaned forward vigorously and asked.
