Chapter 204 [Liu Jiacheng surprised all the old experts
the next day.
The results of the treatment of Yizhonghai by the steel rolling mill have come out.
Since Yi Zhonghai was a skilled veteran, the rolling mill did not choose to fire him directly. Instead, he was asked to do logistical work in the fitter workshop. Based on his subsequent performance, he would be reinstated as a seventh-level fitter.
Normally, I would move iron blocks and transport the blank parts made by the fitters, and my salary would be cut in half from the previous eighty yuan, and even the production bonuses would be wiped out.
When Yi Zhonghai calculated that his monthly salary was only more than thirty yuan... his heart bleeds!
The rolling mill did not report this result to the whole factory, because now the locomotive manufacturing experts have arrived from all over the country.
Director Yang was worried that this matter would damage the overall image of Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill, so he asked the workshop director to handle the matter privately.
…
…
Manufacturing locomotive office area.
"Master!"
Liu Jiacheng saw Zhao Tiezhu at the door of the office and hurried up to say hello.
In this era, there are very few capable engineers in China. Engineers like Zhao Tiezhu, who is a fitter, are indispensable talents involved in the construction of this kind of locomotive.
"Good performance! Let's go to the meeting first."
Zhao Tiezhu patted his apprentice on the shoulder and nodded with satisfaction.
Six years ago, Liu Jiacheng was a fitter apprentice who didn't know much about anything. In the blink of an eye, he was able to participate in the locomotive construction project in a few years.
When Liu Jiacheng entered the big office, it was already filled with a series of engineering experts.
Some of these people are veteran craftsmen with superb skills who participated in foreign railway projects before the founding of the People's Republic of China.
The other part are veteran traffic school experts mobilized from all over the country!
Such a lineup can be said to be a gathering of experts!
Compared with the quiet old craftsmen in the office, these old experts have now begun to make a lot of noise!
"With the technology we currently have in our country, it is extremely difficult to build a locomotive in a short period of time!"
"If this was an extremely simple matter, none of you here would be gathering here."
"This is a great project that can enhance our national strength. As the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning, and our first step is to gnaw off the outermost hard shell."
"The core technology of building locomotives is still in the hands of foreigners. If we just want to rely on ourselves, it will still take a long time."
"The easiest way is to have a mature foreign technology that can serve as a reference for us!"
"..."
The old experts all have their own opinions.
In this era, everything in the country is in dire need.
Although these experts are considered top talents in the country, due to the limitations of the times, their current technology can only produce the earliest gadgets.
In later generations, building a locomotive would have been something that could only be done at hand, but in this era it was considered the most advanced technology!
Especially now, China is like a headless fly in front of this kind of high-end technology.
The superior leaders required that the locomotives they manufactured should be put into use at the Sijiucheng Railway Station. They required that the most advanced technology should be used to let foreigners see the strength of the country.
But...the veteran experts in the room were at a loss when faced with this high-end technology.
Discussions went on and on, but no plan was discussed, but the room was filled with smoke billowing from old smokers.
"By the way, I heard that we now have an engineer in China who can repair the rolling mill, and he is also on the list of our locomotive manufacturing project this time."
"It seems to be called Liu Jiacheng! I wonder if Comrade Liu Jiacheng is here?"
During the discussion just now, a very respectable old man slowly raised his head.
From the discussion just now, Liu Jiacheng learned that this person's name was Shen Chenghui, and everyone called him Mr. Shen.
He is also the overall person in charge of the project to manufacture the locomotive!
"Hello everyone! I am Liu Jiacheng!"
"But I want to correct what Mr. Shen said just now. I am not an engineer now, but an eighth-level fitter in the steel rolling mill."
As soon as these words came out, all the experts in the room showed shock. Almost everyone's eyes were fixed on Liu Jiacheng.
Several experts even pushed up their glasses and looked at Liu Jiacheng up and down very lightly.
There is no other reason! It’s because Liu Jiacheng is too young!
With this appearance, no one would doubt that he is a college student who just graduated this year and came to the steel rolling mill for internship.
Several experts also wondered whether there was a mistake due to the same name. After all, what Mr. Shen just said was not an eighth-level fitter, but an engineer.
"Hehehe~ As I get older, my brain doesn't work very well. I always remember you as an engineer."
"But you can't blame me entirely. You can ask these old experts whether they believe that the eighth-level fitters can repair the rolling mill?"
Mr. Shen smiled kindly.
He also didn't expect that Liu Jiacheng, who he was paying attention to on the list this time, would be so young, but this also shows that there are a lot of talents in the country.
This was a surprise for him at the first meeting!
"So you are Liu Jiacheng. I didn't expect you to be so young."
"I believe you when you say you are still in school!"
"..."
Several engineers came up to chat with Liu Jiacheng. Although news was blocked in this era, experts like them still knew that someone had repaired the rolling mill. They had even read the report Liu Jiacheng made about repairing the rolling mill.
Several experts exchanged pleasantries with Liu Jiacheng, but they also wanted to test Liu Jiacheng's true strength.
When asked about some engineers' professional knowledge, Liu Jiacheng's fluent answers could not help but amaze everyone, and he also continued to win everyone's favor.
Such excellent professional knowledge could actually be spoken from the mouth of an eighth-level fitter, which really shocked the experts and veteran craftsmen present.
Now they completely believe that an eighth-level fitter like Liu Jiacheng can repair the rolling mill, and at the same time, they put Liu Jiacheng on the same level as them.
"If we want to chat, we can wait until we get to the cafeteria at noon. Let's discuss the construction of the locomotive first."
Mr. Shen knocked on the table, drawing everyone's attention back.
The focus of the next discussion is nothing more than the core technology of manufacturing locomotives-steam kinetic energy!
In this era, trains were still mainly powered by steam.
In fact, he has completely mastered the steam kinetic energy technology given to him by the system. If he really wants to build a locomotive, there will be no problem without relying on foreigners as long as he has help.
But...he just thought about these words in his heart.
After all, in this era, if he said he could accomplish a technology that even these veteran experts scratch their heads with, I don’t know how many people would be slapped in the face.
Others will definitely not believe it and will only think that he is bragging.
The good image you just established will be gone!
Who doesn't know how to brag?
It would be better for him to show off his current steam kinetic energy technology bit by bit when he actually builds the locomotive.
