“If we don’t have it in China, we can just go abroad and buy it.”
Just when there was a slight embarrassment in the conference room, Mr. Chen opened his mouth to resolve Wang Junhong's dilemma.
Then he looked at Yang Xiaotao and said, "If you are given enough raw materials, will the machinery factory have the confidence to make it?"
Yang Xiaotao immediately assured, "Don't worry, chief, we are confident that we can make it happen."
"Okay, I will inform the foreign trade department about this matter."
"It just so happens that we have made some money, so it would be most appropriate to exchange this colorful paper for supplies."
Mr. Chen smiled, and everyone laughed after hearing this.
Only then did they remember that now was not the time before when they had to save their foreign exchange.
Nowadays, there are many profitable businesses.
"That's right, this money must be converted into physical objects as soon as possible, otherwise it will be no different from waste paper."
Mr. Zhou also laughed, and then looked at Mr. Chen, "Chief, our big ship is really short of..."
"Stop it, stop it."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Mr. Qin on the side.
"Lao Zhou, you have taken advantage of a lot today, what else do you want?"
"And the alloy hasn't come out yet, so you're going to take action?"
Mr. Zhou didn't hide it after hearing this. He glanced at Mr. Qin and said, "What's wrong? You're staring at me too."
"I did it for the submarine..."
"Don't say this, I'll get angry if you say this. This is obviously a project of our Sixth Machinery Department, and it was snatched away by your logistics department. How shameless."
"This is the decision of the superiors. They gave it to us because we have excellent technology and can trust us..."
"Haha, it's so hard that it falls off."
Mr. Wang on the side suddenly interjected, and Mr. Qin immediately turned his head and glared angrily.
"Shameless guy, who are you talking about..."
"Say who knows..."
"Laugh at fifty steps and laugh at a hundred steps. Is this what you are capable of?"
"That's better than being blind..."
The originally evenly matched situation quickly turned into one versus two, and gradually more people joined in, gradually becoming chaotic.
In response, Yang Xiaotao and others just walked aside silently, leaving the battlefield and acting as qualified spectators.
Yang Xiaotao was sitting next to Mr. Chen and was talking about how he had developed this skill. Mr. Huang and Mr. Xia also looked proud.
Mr. Qian would ask questions from time to time, and Yang Xiaotao would also answer solemnly.
"Just observe more, remember more, think more..."
Mr. Chen looked pleased after hearing this, "You have to pass on your skills. Find a few apprentices and teach them well."
"By the way, I heard that the workers in the workshop are all led by masters and apprentices, right?"
"You are also an eighth-level master. Do you have any apprentices?"
Speaking of this, Liu Huaimin on the side immediately interjected, "Chief, this happened a long time ago, when we were still in the steel rolling mill, we wanted him to take over as an apprentice."
"You also know that if you don't have a successor to this skill, it wouldn't be a loss."
"But later, guess what he said."
Liu Huaimin ignored Yang Xiaotao's wink and looked like he was sharing a secret with others. He was extremely excited.
"He said that he was too young to be a master. He also said that if someone called him a master, he would be called old."
"Look, is this a reason?"
Mr. Chen and Mr. Qian laughed after hearing this. Indeed, if you don't look at his identity and the things he did, Yang Xiaotao is indeed a young man.
Even if I put it to work in the workshop, no one would think it was inappropriate.
"It's not that I don't accept apprentices."
Yang Xiaotao hurriedly explained, "Isn't this the new trend of the new society? This is the master-apprentice style. It's the same old style."
"We, the workers of the new era, don't do that."
"I think you just want to be lazy."
Mr. Chen exposed Yang Xiaotao's lies at the side, and Yang Xiaotao could only laugh.
"Me too, I don't have much time."
"You don't know, there are machinery factories, pharmaceutical factories, chemical factories and steel factories."
"In addition, there are several research projects, including this titanium-rhenium alloy. I only thought of it recently..."
Yang Xiaotao was talking about his own affairs. Mr. Huang looked at Mr. Qian and said, "Haha, why do you think you are busier than us?"
Hearing this, Yang Xiaotao was greatly embarrassed, and quickly explained, "I'm just busy, I'm just busy, I'm far behind you."
"Yeah?"
"Yes, absolutely!"
Mr. Huang asked curiously, and Yang Xiaotao immediately answered correctly. Mr. Xia and others were laughing at the side.
Several people talked for a while, and the conversation was not limited to alloys, but about factory management, development directions, breakthroughs, and other aspects of communication.
Of course, Yang Xiaotao is a serious and good student. He listens to most of the questions and only speaks a few words when asked.
After listening to the discussions of these people, Yang Xiaotao could feel the development of various industries.
Especially for the Second Machinery Department, hearing Mr. Qian talk about the research on hydrogen bombs made him even more fascinated.
The bigger this thing is, the safer it feels.
Then talking about the satellites studied by the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Mr. Qian even lamented that if the titanium-rhenium alloy could be manufactured in time, the weight problem that troubled the Chinese Academy of Sciences would no longer be a problem.
In this regard, Yang Xiaotao can only say that once the raw materials are in place, research will be carried out as soon as possible.
Mr. Chen also said that he would ask the foreign trade side to buy back the raw materials as soon as possible.
Even if you spend a little more money, it doesn't matter.
The few people communicated again, Mr. Chen looked at the time, and then Mr. Chen waved his hand, "Okay!"
"Everyone, please calm down."
Qin Lao and others who were still arguing on the other side also stopped.
Yang Xiaotao looked around and saw that although the people were arguing vigorously, no one had moved their butts off their chairs.
Obviously, everyone is very 'restrained'.
"It's a rare visit to this machinery factory for everyone today. As the owner of this place, as a landlord, I will be the host this noon."
"Let's go eat."
After Mr. Chen finished speaking, everyone immediately agreed.
Then, under the guidance of the machine factory staff, a group of people went out to the reception room on the same floor.
"Old Chen, have you made arrangements in the canteen?"
After leaving the door of the conference room, Yang Xiaotao saw Chen Gong busy at work.
"Don't worry, everything is ready."
"Each table has four dishes and one soup, two meat and two vegetarian dishes, and the staple food is steamed buns and noodles. The main thing is to eat in large portions to fill your stomach."
Chen Gong has been busy all morning, and this work has been arranged very properly.
"Okay, let comrades work hard for a while. After this time, there will be rewards."
"Haha, I've said this a long time ago."
Chen Gong smiled and the two of them came to the reception area.
This was originally a conference room, but was temporarily used as a reception room.
The room is not small, with four large tables placed inside, surrounded by tables and chairs.
When Yang Xiaotao came in, Mr. Chen waved, "Xiaotao, come and sit here."
After the words fell, there was silence all around.
Originally, Yang Xiaotao's seat was at the same table as Mr. Niu and the others. As the owner of the machinery factory, he naturally had to accompany the guests to eat.
Mr. Chen's table is occupied by various big shots. There are not many people, but the standards are the highest.
Even Liu Huaimin had no place and could only entertain the leaders who came with him.
Yang Xiaotao was holding wine in his hand. When he heard Mr. Chen's words, he didn't react for a while.
The people around him were also staring at him, with something unusual in their eyes.
"What are you doing standing around? Come and sit here."
Mr. Chen spoke again, and Mr. Huang patted the chair next to him, "Hurry up."
After taking a look, he saw that he was surrounded by big guys from the machine department, including Mr. Chen and Mr. Huang.
As for Mr. Qin and Mr. Qian, they all smiled and nodded.
Yang Xiaotao couldn't be pretentious now, so he stepped forward and sat down while carrying a bottle of wine.
When he thought about it, he was just accompanying the master and drinking.
But in the eyes of other people, the meaning is naturally different.
Which one of the people who can sit at that table is the simplest?
Even if Yang Xiaotao's current status is not reached, Yang Xiaotao has the biggest advantage.
That is, young.
At this moment, people from various machine departments looked at Yang Xiaotao differently.
This is the future boss.
Moreover, he is also the boss of Mr. Chen.
Maybe, he might become Mr. Chen's successor.
After all, everyone knows that Mr. Chen is not in good health and is not young anymore.
Now is the time to start looking for candidates.
Everyone had different ideas, but they all raised Yang Xiaotao's status to be equal to that of their own boss.
Even Mr. Wang and others at the same table thought it was appropriate for Yang Xiaotao to sit at this table.
If you go to other tables, that's not a dimensionality reduction attack.
As everyone sat down, the staff of the machinery factory immediately served the prepared meals to the table.
While Chen Gong was on his way out, he quickly called for Wang Guodong to take the vacant spot.
What's next is a drinking battle, and he can't handle it alone.
"Chief, I'll fill it up for you!"
Yang Xiaotao opened the wine bottle skillfully. The wine was Maotai specially made by the machinery factory to entertain distinguished guests.
This is also the share given to them by their superiors, and will only be taken out on this occasion.
Mr. Chen nodded with a smile, and Mr. Huang was even more pleased, looking at Yang Xiaotao as if he were one of his own children.
"Is this wine enough?"
"If it's not enough, I still have some in the car."
Mr. Zhou saw that the cups on the table were all in twos and a half, and if they were turned around, two bottles of wine would have to reach the bottom, so he said to the side.
"Chief, we need you to bring wine with you when you come to our place. Don't worry, the good wine is gone, but Erguotou is enough."
After hearing this, Mr. Zhou immediately rolled up his sleeves and said, "Just what you said, we have to have a good time today."
After hearing what he originally wanted to say, Mr. Wang immediately swallowed it.
"Okay, don't worry, I will definitely accompany you to have fun."
Yang Xiaotao also said, then picked up the wine bottle and came to Mr. Qian.
The more Qian Lao saw Yang Xiaotao, the more he liked him. It is rare for young people to have ideas, courage and responsibility.
"Chief, I'll pour you a drink!"
"Okay, I can't bear to drink, so this half glass will do."
Mr. Qian has a bookish air, speaks softly and is very contagious.
"Old Qian can't drink well. I'll give you some more."
Mr. Qin, who was sitting next to Mr. Qian, said immediately and then put the cup forward.
Yang Xiaotao immediately poured the wine carefully.
Mr. Qin took the opportunity to ask, "How advanced are your aircraft engines?"
The wine line stretched, Yang Xiaotao slowed down, and then replied, "We have made the fan, but the turbine is still being made. I believe it will not take long to make it."
"Then do the combustion chamber..."
"Oh, you did it pretty quickly."
"It's okay, it's just a small fuss."
Yang Xiaotao responded, then filled the bowl for Mr. Zhou before walking down.
Mr. Qin had a slight smile in his eyes when he heard what Yang Xiaotao said.
Just now, they have reached a new distribution plan. Although it is less, when the scale increases, they will get more.
What's more, there is a better titanium-rhenium alloy.
With these, the submarine's progress will be greatly increased.
The future is promising.
But that doesn't mean he gave up on aircraft engines.
Isn't there a saying that says, get up wherever you fall?
He never admits defeat in his life. Now that he has fallen, he should try again.
Therefore, he turned his attention to Yang Xiaotao.
If their engines are good, he wouldn't mind working together.
Of course, except for Mr. Wang, who was sitting next to Mr. Xia, who was a little bitter, everyone else returned home with a full load.
"Chief!"
When Yang Xiaotao came to Mr. Wang with the wine, Mr. Wang asked in a low voice, "Did you go to do this yesterday?"
"Well, yes."
"You kid, you are not authentic."
"Hey, aren't you avoiding me too?"
"Yes, I am busy."
"Yes, yes, you are very busy."
"Fuck you."
Mr. Wang leaned forward, and then said rather sentimentally, "Oh, how pitiful, we have no one in the Seventh Machinery Department, and we are bullied everywhere."
The hand that Yang Xiaotao used to pour the wine shook and he almost spilled it.
"Who dares to bully you? That's not causing trouble for the Lord of Hell."
"Stop saying that."
After saying that, he hurriedly walked aside and sat down.
This old fox might have to play the emotional card again.
When Mr. Wang saw him, he burst into laughter. This guy is good at everything.
Especially the emphasis on feelings, this is the best.
Although he suffered a loss here today, he was prepared to be made difficult before he came.
Now we can still retain 10% of the materials, which is considered to be an overfulfillment of the task.
