Chen Yongsen just went out to use the toilet. On his way back, he happened to see Yang Xiaotao getting out of the car. He thought of something and ran back immediately.
At this time, Lao Dao was leading Xu Ning and others to wait for the workers to drive the big crane over and pour the molten iron into the converter.
Then I saw Chen Yongsen running in from outside, shouting as he ran.
"Oh no, Mr. Yang is here?"
"What? Who? Mr. Yang is here?"
Chen Yongsen was startled, and then subconsciously looked at the materials on the ground.
The other people looked at each other, and then all looked at Lao Dao.
The old man was stroking his beard and thinking about alloys.
He also knows a thing or two about the recent situation in the machinery factory.
Nowadays, the machinery factory does not lack opportunities, nor does it lack methods for good things, but the only thing it lacks is materials.
Especially alloy materials.
The last time I had a drink with Yang Xiaotao, we mentioned the improvement of machine tools. At that time, Yang Xiaotao said that with the current technology of the machinery factory, it is completely possible to make some improvements to the Venus machine tool.
You can even make a new design on this basis to further optimize Daystar.
But the difficulty is that once the design is made, there is no material to support the change.
Just like when the Venus was first made, the core components required tungsten alloy. If you want to improve and increase precision, you need more tungsten alloy and even better alloy materials.
In other words, if you want machine tools to improve higher and higher, this material is a difficult problem that must be overcome.
In addition, things like eight-cylinder engines, aviation engines, etc. have high requirements for materials.
Although Lao Dao left the Second Machinery Department to live in peace, he has been working in the local area for more than ten years. He always has a few good friends, so some things cannot be hidden from him.
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw a group of people looking at him, and then heard Chen Yongsen's voice.
"Mr. Yang? Yang Xiaotao?"
Suddenly, several beards were torn off with force from my hand, and it felt like needle pricks.
"No way, Mr. Yang can't stop us!"
Zang Wei didn't answer, but said with some worry, and looked at the materials that had been sorted around him, which would be added to the furnace later to prepare for smelting.
After hearing this, several people around him looked at Zhang Laodao.
"No way, it can't be that fast!"
"I just handed the documents to the office this morning. Even if I read them, it would be noon!"
The old Taoist was still a little scared. After all, this matter was simply his "arbitrariness".
He was talking to himself seasonedly, but the people around him were furious when they heard it.
"You just gave it to me this morning? Didn't you agree to it yesterday?"
The old Taoist blushed, admitting that he had let something slip, and immediately explained, "I originally wrote the report yesterday, but I didn't prepare these things, so I forgot about it for a while!"
"But it doesn't matter. I gave you what I gave you this morning. There is no problem with the process."
After hearing this, several people did not believe his lies. If there was no problem, why would Yang always come so early?
I didn’t even make a call, I came directly!
Obviously asking for guilt!
Several people felt anxious, just like children waiting for their parents after making mistakes.
At this time, Yang Xiaotao and Guan Zhiyong walked in from outside. They were in a hurry, which made everyone's hearts sink.
When he came outside the workshop, Yang Xiaotao saw Lao Dao leading a group of people waiting beside the small converter. There were some materials on the trolley beside him, and several workers further away were waiting for orders.
You'll know what to do at a glance.
I still feel a little angry in my heart.
But this anger slowly calmed down as he got closer.
After all, what the other party does is not just a waste, they are experimenting.
This process is not like what Yang Xiaotao can do by sitting at the table and writing and drawing in a pencil book. Each of their experiments requires a lot of calculations.
In comparison, they are the real researchers.
How could Yang Xiaotao be angry with such a researcher?
Amid the shrinking gazes of everyone, Yang Xiaotao came closer.
I thought there would be some criticism, but when Yang Xiaotao approached, he just looked at the converter and the materials around the converter, then looked at the old man, and did not embarrass others in the report.
The matter has already begun, and there is no point in asking. Besides, this is not the purpose of his coming here this time.
"How sure are you?"
When everyone saw that Yang Xiaotao did not come up to stop him, but asked about the success rate, they immediately felt much less anxious.
Hearing the voice, the old man stepped forward and said, "I'm still sixty percent sure."
"We tested it before. After adding tungsten, the steel we obtained was harder than ordinary steel. This time we changed the formula and we are more sure!"
After saying that, Xu Ning stepped forward and handed a list in his hand to Yang Xiaotao.
"Mr. Yang, this is the data from our experiments over the past few times. There has been improvement every time."
Yang Xiaotao took the data sheet, which was filled with rows of data, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.
I feel a little helpless in my heart. It would be great if I could leave this kind of thing to him.
For him, all it takes is pen and ink.
But here, it requires a lot of material and manpower.
However, this is the normal state of research.
As for the card system bug like Yang Xiaotao's, take shortcuts unless you have a system.
Yang Xiaotao calmed down and saw the final experimental data.
Read it carefully from beginning to end.
It can be seen that the research on tungsten alloy by several people is still fruitful. Yang Xiaotao, who is proficient in first-level steelmaking, also feels that this formula is somewhat interesting.
only…
This recipe was just a hint, and he didn't think it would be successful.
After looking at Xu Ning and then at the others, Yang Xiaotao was about to refuse, but he held it back.
The enthusiasm of these people cannot be dampened.
Taking a deep breath, Yang Xiaotao handed the order to Xu Ning, nodded and said, "Since you are confident, then give it a try."
Xu Ning laughed when he heard this, and the others behind him were also excited.
Zhang Laodao put down the hand stroking his beard and nodded gently. This hurdle was finally over.
With Yang Xiaotao's consent, the group of people started working with full enthusiasm.
Yang Xiaotao then handed over the scene to a few people, and the workers not far away received instructions to start operating the converter and started working.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "You didn't go back last night? Is it because of this?"
Yang Xiaotao took out his cigarette and handed it to Lao Dao, "Also, what do you think about killing first and showing off later?"
The old Taoist nodded and smiled, "Why kill first and tell later? This hasn't even started yet!"
"If you were in the machinery factory right now, you would probably have seen it!"
"Yes, I saw it, but even if I didn't agree, you started."
Yang Xiaotao glanced at it, "Also, with so much experimental data, I don't remember agreeing to it so many times!"
But the old man showed a sly smile, "You can't blame me for this. Every time I sign with you, I can't use up all the application materials, so I can only use them again and again?"
Yang Xiaotao almost cut off the cigarette in his hand, "What do you mean, what you submitted is not for an experiment?"
"You didn't say you had to use it for an experiment!"
Yang Xiaotao took a deep breath, looked at the old man carefully, and then smiled bitterly, "Did you come up with this idea?"
The old man said nothing, and the two of them immediately focused on the converter.
As the workers operated and under the command of Xu Ning, the molten iron was poured into the converter.
The first small converter in this steel plant is functioning again.
"They are all good young men."
The old Taoist looked at the few people, and they all followed the steps step by step, but in an orderly manner.
"No, you don't know these people, but they are worth a lot of money."
"What do you mean?"
The old Taoist was a little surprised. He had been staying at the steel factory these past few days and did not go back to the courtyard at night. In addition, not many people in the machinery factory knew about Mr. Wang's affairs and did not publicize it to the outside world. Therefore, the old Taoist, including Xu Ning and others,
Do not know at all.
Yang Xiaotao threw the cigarette butt on the ground, and then told what happened that day.
The old Taoist was stunned for a while, and then burst into laughter.
"According to what you said, these little guys are indeed quite expensive."
"However, based on the current situation, in the future, the benefits of the machinery factory will definitely outweigh the disadvantages."
"I estimate that the Seventh Machinery Department will regret this matter in the future."
"You guy, you took advantage of me again this time."
The veteran didn't feel that he was at a loss, especially after getting to know them, he felt that the machine factory had taken advantage.
Of course, the veteran also knows that as long as he continues to invest in this matter, there will be results.
At that time, even just one research result was enough for the machinery factory to recoup its costs.
Yang Xiaotao glanced at the old man, but he didn't expect to speak so highly of these young people.
However, the old Taoist misunderstood something, because if he doesn't need it, Mr. Wang will probably regret it in the past two days.
The two of them were talking and had no intention of telling anyone.
Half an hour later, the liquid oxygen stopped and the converter stopped heating.
Then, under the operation of workers, the converter was dumped, the alloy mixed with various metals was tilted into the barrel, and then moved aside.
Because the converter is small and there is not much molten steel, the cooling rate is relatively fast.
Yang Xiaotao and others didn't wait for it to cool down completely before they stepped forward to check.
The old Taoist held a steel spoon in his hand and wore thick gloves. He came to the bucket, inserted it hard, and then quickly scooped out a spoonful.
You can see that the steel fork is quickly scalding red. The old man quickly pours the molten steel in the spoon into the mold to speed up the cooling.
"It's almost done, give it a try."
After a while, the old Taoist felt something was wrong and said to the people around him.
With that said, he took out the embryo from the mold with iron clips and placed it on the iron felt aside.
Zhao Chuan and Liu Buhui on the side immediately hit it with small hammers, and the outer layer of molten steel was immediately knocked off.
Yang Xiaotao didn't understand it at first, but after being indoctrinated by his proficiency in steelmaking, he knew that this was confirming the hardness of the metal.
As the temperature dissipates and solidifies as it cools, the higher the hardness, the less likely it is to deform when struck.
It’s just that this process is not simple, it requires not only technology, but also a certain degree of vision.
Guan Zhiyong watched for a while and saw that the frequency of beating was a bit low, so he stepped forward and picked up a larger hammer and joined in the beating.
Yang Xiaotao looked at it for a while, then frowned.
Obviously, the hardness of this alloy does not meet the requirements.
Gradually, several other people also discovered something was wrong.
Xu Ning closed his eyes in disappointment, and the others were also sluggish.
The experiment has reached this point and it has been proven that it has failed.
The few people who were wielding hammers also put down their hammers, with frustration on their faces.
Only Guan Zhiyong's face remained unchanged.
I have become accustomed to this kind of failure.
The old Taoist shook his head and muttered a few words about Infinite Heavenly Lord, but did not dare to look at Yang Xiaotao.
The previous 60% certainty was now 10% gone.
Yang Xiaotao stepped forward and looked at the beaten embryo carefully for a while, then looked at a few people and said, "Okay, I won't say any more."
"We are all adults, not children anymore. There is no need to be so downcast if we fail."
"If you don't even have the courage to endure failure and setbacks, then don't do any research."
"Keep your heads up, don't follow me like a girl."
Yang Xiaotao walked up to Zhao Chuan who was sitting on the ground and kicked him on the butt. The latter stood up angrily, and everyone else also regained their composure.
"Since yours failed, try my recipe."
Looking at everyone's appearance, Yang Xiaotao slowly spoke.
In an instant, the old Taoist opened his mouth wide and rubbed his ears, unable to hear something clearly.
None of them understood what was going on, but Yang Xiaotao took out a piece of paper and handed it to Xu Ning.
