Two days later, a reply from the bicycle factory was delivered to Lin Zhen.
The pedal tricycle he designed was adopted.
The bicycle factory not only expressed its gratitude and commendation to him, but also sent him an invitation letter.
Invite Lin Zhen to work as a senior engineer at the bicycle factory.
Naturally, Lin Zhen would not be tempted by this request. Not to mention the senior engineer, even the deputy director would not go.
Lin Zhen handed the letter to Deputy Director Li to read.
Deputy Director Li frowned after reading this.
"This bicycle factory is real. My engineer gave you a good idea. Just thank you. How can you poach me?"
Lin Zhen smiled and said: "Don't worry, Director, I won't feel comfortable working anywhere without you and Director Yang."
"Okay! Xiao Lin, I am very pleased with your attitude. I have decided to discuss with Factory Manager Yang and arrange an assistant for you. How about Xiao Su, who has just graduated and started working? That girl is smart and has a good eye."
"Ah! I'm so sorry. There are four engineers in our factory, and I am the only one with an assistant."
"Oh, don't care about them, I'm still going to give you a separate office?"
"Oh, no need for that. Thank you very much, director. I will work even harder to live up to your high expectations."
Xiao Su is the niece of Director Su of the No. 2 Forging Workshop. Her name is Su Yumei. She has just graduated and been assigned to the rolling mill as a workshop assistant.
Director Su, like himself, is a popular person in front of Deputy Factory Director Li.
The two of them usually have a good relationship. If Deputy Factory Director Li wants his niece to be his assistant, he will certainly not refuse.
After all, Su Yumei is a real factory flower, much more beautiful than the self-styled Yu Haitang.
She is on par with Lou Xiaoe and Qin Huairu before she got married, and beats Qin Jingru who just entered the city.
Lin Zhen understood that this was a means by Deputy Director Li to win over his subordinates.
Su Yumei works as her assistant, which is much easier than working in the workshop, and she still has a future.
Director Su will definitely be grateful to Deputy Director Li for his arrangement, and Lin Zhen will naturally never forget his kindness.
Although Deputy Director Li has no moral bottom line in excluding dissidents.
But to your own people, you have nothing to say.
Deputy Director Li took the reply from the bicycle factory and went directly to Director Yang, proposing to assign Lin Zhen an assistant so that he could research more good stuff in the future.
Factory Director Yang immediately approved it, and he was reluctant to let Lin Zhen go.
Moreover, he is the only one in the whole factory who knows the best about Lin Zhen’s relationship with the top leaders.
Of course they won't wear small shoes.
Lin Zhen got an assistant, and the other three engineers were convinced. There was nothing they could do about it. There was a gap in strength. They couldn't accept it.
Su Yumei was extremely happy. She had long heard that although Lin Zhen was an engineer, he was actually more powerful than the workshop director.
And he is a very legendary person, there is almost nothing he can't do.
There were no star-chasers in those days, but Lin Zhen was already a popular figure in the steel rolling mill and the one the girls talked about after get off work.
"Forest worker! I'm here to report!"
Lin Zhen was looking at the drawings. When he looked up, he saw Su Yumei had arrived at the desk.
His two big eyes can read people's thoughts, and his playful face is full of youthful vitality.
"Well, take the notebook and follow me to the workshop and learn to record the efficiency of the equipment."
"yes!"
Su Yumei was full of expectations and asked as soon as she left the office: "Lin Gong, are all your inventions inspired by the workshop?"
"Haha, that's about it. From now on, I will have to send documents to the boss for signature, but you will have to run errands for me."
"Yes, I promise to complete the task!"
When getting off work in the afternoon, Su Yumei went to deliver documents to Director Yang on behalf of Lin Zhen.
After returning, he made a mysterious report: "Lin Gong, Director Yang said that your old friend wants to eat the dinner you cooked again, and asked you to take some time to go."
Lin Zhen smiled slightly and said, "Okay, I got it."
Su Yumei laughed softly and asked: "What kind of old friend is he? He has such great honor and allows you to cook at his house. I heard that the foreman of the kitchen in our canteen is still your apprentice."
"Hey~ don't ask around, just know that he is an old friend."
"ah!"
Su Yumei hurriedly covered her mouth and said in panic: "I was wrong. I forgot what I just said. Lin Gong, you must have forgotten too."
"Tch! What a little girl!"
"Lin Gong, I'm not young..."
"Shut up!"
…………
When he got off work, Lin Zhen asked Yu Li to send a message to Lou Xiao'e, telling him to cook dinner for an old friend and not to wait for him for dinner at night.
When we arrived at the big leader's house, Master Du was already waiting for us.
He was originally going to make dinner for his boss and then get off work. As soon as he heard that Lin Zhen was coming in the evening, he immediately decided to follow him. It would be good to learn a few tricks from him.
"Forest worker, you are here. What are you planning to eat tonight?"
"I just went to ask. The boss just wanted to chat with me. Just a home-cooked meal will be fine. I'll finish it in a while. You can get off work."
"Ah? You want me to help you?"
"No, it's just food for three people. If you really want to learn cooking, you should first master the basic knife skills I mentioned."
Master Du said disappointedly: "I'm already this age. If I practice knife skills and reach your level, I'll be in my fifties or sixties. Forget it, I still don't have the luck to learn."
"Hahaha, don't say that. If you really want to attack me, just chop the vegetables for me, right?"
"Okay, let's keep it or cut the vegetables. I admit it, let's cut it now."
The big boss came to Lin Zhen because he wanted to eat the food he cooked.
On the one hand, I heard that the bicycle factory invited him to be a senior engineer, so I asked Lin Zhen specifically what his attitude was.
The big boss at the dinner table smiled and asked: "I heard from Factory Director Yang, do you have any plans to go?"
Lin Zhen shook his head and said with a smile: "No, designing cars is not my specialty. I modified the tricycle because there were many children at home and it was troublesome for my wife to go out. After the modification was completed, I wanted to give back to the society, so I sent the drawings to the bicycle factory. Unexpectedly, the bicycle factory
You think so highly of me."
"Hahaha... No matter which department is now trying to grab technical talents, does our motherland lack energy? It seems to be in short supply, but in fact it is not! Our motherland is full of treasures, with a lot of coal and oil, but the efficiency of mining is too high.
Low, what we really lack is technical talents and more basic equipment!"
Lin Zhen couldn't help but nod, "Yes, many of our basic equipment are not independently developed. They are technically blocked and difficult to upgrade."
"Well, you can do some research in this area. Start with basic equipment and see which equipment can't keep up with production. If you are confident that it can be updated, then go for research and development. Don't be afraid of failure. Failure
I will guide you and apply your interest in studying pedal tricycles to the metallurgical industry. This is another important reason why I called you here today."
When Lin Zhen heard this, he immediately became energetic, "Yes, leader! I accept your task. Speaking of which, there is really a piece of equipment that is so out of line. I have wanted to improve it for a long time, but it will be difficult to succeed in just a few years."
"What device?"
"The existing air compressors are too old. The two newly put into production are imitations of old foreign products from the machinery factory, and the rest are leftover from the former Jiefang steel rolling mill."
The big leader nodded and said: "Although this equipment is only an auxiliary, it has a wide range of uses. Not only does the metallurgical industry depend on it, but the mining industry is also indispensable. It is too scarce. Go ahead and try to improve it."
Lin Zhen said: "I just didn't know how long it would take and how many resources and manpower would be invested at the beginning."
The big leader thought for a while and said: "Tomorrow I will discuss with Factory Director Yang to set up a small R&D department in the steel rolling mill first and do it step by step. As for the R&D plan, you can write an overview when you get home later.
