Zheng Tong said solemnly: "Then you have to take it easy. The elders are quite old. It would be a blessing to be able to help you make this kind of loader. Let me tell you,
You could just let them go home and take care of themselves, but it's a bit unreasonable to use them like this."
"These few are the treasures of the house. If they want to leave, I will never stop them, and this design will never be centered on them. The reason why I still keep them is because they don't want to leave.
"
Zheng Tong nodded: "That's more like it. It's good to make people tired, but be careful that their children and grandchildren will cause trouble for you."
"We must continue to recruit mechanical design students. The institute will expand every year."
Zheng Tong rolled his eyes at Jiang Hua: "You don't have to say this. Based on our current recruitment scale, I estimate that in another five to seven years, our current research institute will not be enough."
Jiang Hua said nonchalantly: "Then expand outward, beyond the second ring road, and build a branch of our research institute in a circle."
Anyway, the current land price in Beijing is about the same as cabbage price. That is to say, Jiang Hua doesn’t like to engage in real estate or land speculation. Otherwise, if he buys a house, he can become the richest man in the country.
"You're great if you have money." Zheng Tong said angrily: "You're trying to enclose a piece of land. Do you think you're Oboi?"
"In this era of wild growth of capital, there are not many laws and regulations on how to acquire land, and functional departments do not have much experience. It is very similar to the land staking of the past."
Zheng Tong nodded in agreement: "Sooner or later, this status quo will be changed. If that's the case, then I'll run to a piece of land."
Jiang Hua smiled and said: "Try to make it as big as possible, otherwise it will have to expand again in a few years. Try to get it done once and for all. Isn't it all up to you to have a good relationship with the district leaders?"
"Shouldn't this be your boss's business?"
Jiang Hua left the office amidst Zheng Tong's complaints and went to the heavy equipment research group at the back. The research room was quiet.
After entering, Jiang Hua saw that everyone was sitting quietly in their seats, either drawing pictures or reading materials. The same was true for the old engineers.
"Everyone is busy." Jiang Hua said cheerfully: "Not long after we achieved great results, we didn't take much rest. The body is the capital of revolution."
"Boss Jiang, please stop causing trouble." Chief Engineer Liao shook his head and said, "Ten thousand years is too long. Seize the day. Our heavy equipment is so backward. Now that conditions are better, it is time to catch up."
"You elders, please be patient and don't take all the responsibility on yourself, because the heavy-duty loader you designed was successful, and now the situation is very good. Major manufacturers are stimulated by you and are making progress in the design process of new equipment.
Everything goes well, I just came back from the leadership, and hopefully by the end of this year, two new types of heavy equipment will be released."
"Really? That's great." The elders all raised their heads in joy, and Chief Engineer Liao asked happily: "Who are these manufacturers?"
"Your old employer, Huanghe Factory, has basically completed the design of their heavy-duty trucks and will put them into inspection in a month or two at most. Huanghe Factory is very confident."
Chief Engineer Liao's beard stood up with joy. Although he thought he had not made much achievements in the Huanghe Factory, he was a complete Huanghe person at heart, so he was naturally happy for the achievements of the Huanghe Factory.
"So I think there is no need for our institute to waste too much energy on these conventional equipment."
Several old engineers raised their heads in surprise: "What is conventional equipment? We don't have universal equipment, so how can it be called conventional equipment?"
"The so-called conventional equipment is equipment used in regular situations. It does not mean that it is not called conventional equipment just because it has not been mass-produced."
Chief Engineer Liao asked: "Then what unconventional equipment do you want us to study?"
"Shield boring machine."
"It sounds like military equipment."
Jiang Hua shook his head: "This thing has been around for a long time. It has been around for about a century and a half. It is mainly used for tunnel excavation."
"Tunnel boring, then this thing is not in line with our profession. Besides, there are so many tunnels to dig. Isn't it a bit worth the loss to specialize in such equipment?"
"How many years have passed, and I have forgotten the call to dig deep holes." Jiang Hua said with a smile: "If our country wants to develop economically, it must have four well-developed railways and highways. It's okay in the east, but there are so many mountains in the west.
, without a shield machine, it would be much more laborious to just rely on manual digging.”
"And in our country's future urbanization construction, we will definitely dig subway tunnels. There are so many big cities, which will also require a large number of shield machines."
"As well as national defense construction and so on, there are places where shield machines can show their talents."
Mr. Liao agreed very much after hearing this: "Looking at the future development prospects, we are definitely not as good as you. You said it is like this, but the most important problem now is that our majors are not suitable. We have not even heard of what a shield machine is.
However, let alone designing and manufacturing shield machines."
"So, the main force this time is these young children." Jiang Hua pointed to the young scientific researchers who were immersed in studying: "They are young and powerful, and their learning ability is good. They can be the main force, and you senior ones can be in charge.
"Although you don't understand what a TBM is, you still have a say in heavy industry, and your experience may help them avoid some detours."
"You don't look down on us old bones anymore."
Jiang Hua quickly denied it and comforted him with kind words: "We always talk about passing on the fire from generation to generation. The most important task of your generation now is to let these new scientific researchers pass on your scientific research spirit and knowledge.
, we have to think about it for the future."
"Well, we don't dare not listen to such a big name." Chief Engineer Liao said with a smile: "There are two more points. First, we don't have information on the shield machine, so you have to give it to us.
To collect data, even if you don’t help us collect data, you have to give us funds to collect data.”
Jiang Hua nodded: "Don't worry about this. I have an investment group in Xiangjiang. I have asked them to collect information. I have prepared a million US dollars, which is earmarked exclusively for the collection of shield machine information."
Chief Engineer Liao nodded: "If a worker wants to do his job well, he must first sharpen his tools. You have a good attitude. The second thing is that we seniors can't study the TBM, and we still want to continue to use some waste heat on heavy machinery and equipment. We
They will also bring research along with them, so you can’t deduct funds from us in this area.”
"Of course, our institute will continue to expand its staff this year, and there will be more new people for you to lead the research."
