In the large conference room of the University of Agricultural Engineering, the heating is running full. Although there are still large tracts of snow on the lawn outside the window, the room is as warm as spring. People came from all over the capital to participate in the "Agricultural Machinery System Catching Up International"
Representatives of the "Advanced Technology Action Plan Seminar" gathered together. Everyone took off their heavy coats and only wore sweaters, but their faces were still glowing red, and some of the fatter representatives even had red spots on their foreheads.
Sweat.
The meeting has not yet begun. Everyone is looking for their acquaintances and greeting each other loudly. The atmosphere in the entire conference room is extremely warm:
"Oh, Lao Ma, long time no see. How are you? You've been promoted again, haven't you?"
"Haha, Professor Niu laughed at me, I'm still the same as before. By the way, I heard that you won another Science and Technology Progress Award?"
"It's just a nomination, it may not be judged... Hey, isn't that Director Lu? Is your daughter taking the college entrance examination this year? How about, it's okay to take the key points..."
"..."
China's agricultural machinery scientific research system is very large. Simply listed, it can be roughly divided into five systems: scientific research institutes directly under the central ministries and commissions, local research institutes at all levels, university scientific research institutions, scientific research institutions of large and medium-sized agricultural machinery enterprises, and individuals outside the system.
Or collective agricultural machinery scientific research institutions, some people jokingly call them the five front armies.
Within each frontal army, the composition is also extremely complex. For example, the research departments under the central ministries and commissions can be divided into industrial departments and agricultural departments. The so-called industrial departments are the agricultural machinery research institutions under the Ministry of Machinery, while the agricultural departments are
Agricultural mechanization research institutions under the Ministry of Agriculture. This is true for the central government and the local governments. Thousands of agricultural machinery departments have emerged after repeated configurations up and down.
Stimulated by the International Agricultural Machinery Exhibition, Cui Hongchun instructed to formulate an action plan to catch up with the international advanced level. Wang Changsong did not dare to neglect, and immediately contacted the University of Agricultural Engineering and asked its organization to take the lead in handling the matter. To come up with an action plan, of course it is necessary
Solicit opinions from all parties. Due to traffic conditions, it is impossible for the Ministry of Agriculture to summon all agricultural machinery researchers from all over the country to the capital. It can only first ask the main units in Beijing to send people to participate in the discussion. But even so, I can draw it casually.
Soon, forty or fifty people came.
Although they belong to different systems, they all work on agricultural machinery. We cooperate and compete with each other on weekdays, and there have been personnel changes during several organizational adjustments, so we are basically acquaintances.
There is no time when there is no fight.
The person presiding over the meeting was Wang Changsong, deputy director of the Agricultural Machinery Department of the Ministry of Agriculture, who was also very familiar with everyone attending the meeting. He looked at his watch and then at the venue, and found that several important people had already arrived.
Then he came to the conference table, cleared his throat, and announced to everyone:
"Okay, except for a few comrades who have important work and cannot attend, everyone attending today's meeting has arrived. Let's just have the meeting."
Hearing Wang Changsong's voice, everyone who was chatting animatedly remembered that they were here for a meeting, not the market. They reminded each other. Returning to their seats, some people began to take off their reading glasses to observe the banner hanging at the end of the conference room.
, muttered in confusion: "What does the pursuit... action plan mean?"
"Everyone, be quiet. Today's meeting is very important!" Wang Changsong emphasized in a sonorous and powerful voice. "This is a meeting held to implement the important spirit proposed by Minister Cui to speed up the pace and catch up with international advanced agricultural machinery technologies.
…”
Next, Wang Changsong introduced the recent international agricultural machinery exhibition and listed the various gaps between China's agricultural machinery and the international advanced level. He also mentioned in particular that Qingfeng Agricultural Machinery Factory has the courage to tackle key problems and produce products that are comparable to Japanese products.
Of course, Wang Changsong did not mention the grievances between Qingfeng Factory and Fenghe Factory. He should not express his position rashly on such negative things.
Most of the representatives present had visited this agricultural machinery exhibition, so they had some understanding of what Wang Changsong said. As the saying goes, good things never go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles. The rotary tillage blades produced by Qingfeng Factory did not
It has attracted everyone's attention, but the fact that Lou Fuxiang was reprimanded by Cui Hongchun at the exhibition has already spread a lot. At this time, there were even murmurings below. The focus of everyone's discussion was mainly whether Lou Fuxiang would be masturbated, and
What message does Cui Hongchun intend to convey through this incident? As for the fact that the blades produced by a county-level agricultural machinery factory can be exported abroad, everyone's comments are the same: bragging, who can't do it?
Of course Wang Changsong knew what the people below were muttering, but these people also had some backgrounds, including powerful business leaders and academic leaders. Wang Changsong should not prohibit them from holding small meetings like he did with middle school students. He put
After talking about the relevant matters, he gestured with his hand and said: "Okay, this is the main background of today's meeting. Now everyone can speak freely."
Wang Changsong stopped talking, and everyone also stopped talking. Everyone looked at each other, and some people even gestured to each other with their eyes, meaning to ask the other party to speak first. After a silent stalemate for several minutes, Tang Kezhong, a senior professor at the University of Agricultural Engineering, stood up
He stood up, smiled modestly at everyone, and said: "Since everyone is polite to each other, let me start by saying a few words."
"Okay!" Wang Changsong agreed softly and clapped his hands a few times, so everyone in the venue also sparsely applauded.
Tang Kezhong claims to be the "theoretical authority" in agricultural mechanization. He was originally engaged in dialectics of nature. After the country proposed a large-scale agricultural mechanization in the late 1950s, he shifted his research direction to agriculture. Before the meeting, Wang Changsong had already informed Tang Kezhong
He said hello, so he was extremely well prepared for today’s meeting:
"The issue of agricultural mechanization is an extremely important issue. In order to achieve the goal of quadrupling the total industrial and agricultural output value by the end of this century, we must transform from traditional agriculture to modern agriculture, and this must first achieve agricultural mechanization.
Regarding the significance of agricultural mechanization, I would like to say three points: First, the historical experience of the development of agricultural mechanization in the world. Since the United Kingdom and France began to use steam power in agricultural production in the mid-19th century, the world's agricultural mechanization has experienced more than a century of development.
time……"
When Tang Kezhong began to speak, the delegates who had been lively and vigorous just now began to wilt. Some people pretended to record in their notebooks, but were actually drawing villains; some pretended to be intoxicated and narrowed their eyes into a line.
Take the opportunity to rest your mind. At least eight of the ten people in the venue were heavy smokers. Naturally, they took out their cigarettes, lit them leisurely, and started puffing away. The whole room was suddenly filled with nicotine and PM2.5.
As the host of the meeting, Wang Changsong naturally did not want to appear too dismissive. While writing down the key points of Tang Kezhong's speech in his notebook, he nodded from time to time to express his agreement. In fact, Wang Changsong was already very familiar with what Tang Kezhong said.
Because every time this old gentleman says the same thing, citing scriptures and classics, the clouds are shrouded in mist. If you say he doesn’t step aside, he can really give you some guidance from a historical and philosophical level; if you say he steps aside, what he said
Everything was said by teachers in 1870, nothing new.
But for such an old gentleman, you still have to let him speak, because it is said that the leaders at the top admire him very much and say that he has a high theoretical level. If he is not involved in a major project, the leaders at the top will ask why they did not find him.
In fact, Wang Changsong also found out that the leader just had a long night chat with Tang Kezhong when he was in trouble and was decentralized. He admired him very much at that time. After the leader came back, he had so many things to do, how could he have time to care about what Tang Kezhong was studying now.
Tang Kezhong finally finished speaking, and he seemed quite tired. Wang Changsong quickly combined what he said, picked out a few comments that he agreed with, and then started looking for the next speaker.
With a good start, the people behind you won't feel shy anymore. These people have all been in the scene before. For them, there is no stage fright in such a meeting. They just don't want to be the first one to speak.
That's all.
"Let me talk about this issue from the perspective of our research institute..." An expert from the Agricultural Mechanization Research Institute began to speak. As usual, he would first talk about the domestic background based on the spirit of the recent speech of the central leadership, and then combine it with
Let’s talk about the international background of the development trend of world science and technology, and finally put it into practice and put forward some development directions.
"Our suggestion is that we should give priority to the development of engines, focus on the development of tow trucks, develop tools as soon as possible, and develop cars in the gap. This engine refers to the engine. We must develop both gasoline and diesel engines, rational division of labor, high and low matching, and form a system..." That era
All the experts learned Chinese from Chinese teachers. When they open their mouths, they can make parallel sentences, which are catchy and easy to learn and remember.
After the experts from the National Academy of Agricultural Machinery finished speaking, the experts from the Beijing Institute of Agricultural Machinery stood up and fully affirmed the opinions of the previous expert, and then put forward a few "supplements". The supplementary meaning was to deny the order proposed by the experts from the National Academy of Agricultural Machinery and believe that it should be
Treat tractors as a priority development target and small agricultural vehicles as a key target.
Then there were those from the Agricultural Machinery Factory, the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, and the Agricultural University. The more everyone talked, the more lively they became, and they did meet Wang Changsong’s requirement to speak freely. There were contradictions in the ideas put forward by each unit, and there were also heroes’ insights.
The difference is that the two units often jointly deny the views of the other two units, and then start to strangle each other internally. When the other units find that there is an opportunity to take advantage of, they step in to pull one against the other.
The harmonious atmosphere before has quietly changed. Although everyone still calls each other so affectionately, calling each other "Lao Zhang", "Lao Li", and even "Fat Wang", "Liu Mazi" and other nicknames, but now
On the issue of stance, they refused to give in an inch of ground and stabbed each other in their weakest ribs.
This place is so lively! (To be continued...)
