Chapter 404 Duan Hongxuan: We cannot be arrogant, but we must be confident
The solar cooker took 21 minutes to boil a pot of cold water weighing 5 pounds!
Everyone present happily congratulated and praised each other!
It was lively for a while, and Director Yang said loudly: "Dear leaders and comrades.
The solar cooker is one of the products that our steel rolling mill presented as a National Day gift today. Next, I would like to invite all leaders to move to the fitter workshop to take a look at another product that our steel rolling mill presented as a National Day gift. This is a prototype of a new type of machine tool newly developed by our steel rolling mill. By the way,
Ask experts in the field of machine tools from the ministry to test the performance of our new machine tools!
I invite you, leaders!"
Everyone followed Director Yang into the fitter workshop with curiosity and excitement.
Everyone present except Director Liang and Director Wang from the Light Industry Bureau knew that there was a new machine tool to be tested today.
Director Liang followed everyone and asked Director Yao in surprise and curiosity: "Old Yao, this steel rolling mill has more than just solar cookers? It also has machine tools?
Awesome! The National Day gift of the steel rolling mill is really not simple this time, your old comrade is really in the limelight this time!"
Director Yao looked at the high-spirited Director Yang who was walking in front, and responded to Director Liang with a sour heart: "Yes, my old comrade is really not simple, and he showed his face today!
Alas! Just like my old leader criticized me just now, Lao Yang has pulled me down far away now!
I have to hurry up and catch up when I get back, otherwise I will be really embarrassed to see my old leader in the future!
Even for me, an old comrade-in-arms, I’m afraid I’d be embarrassed to drink with him again!”
Director Liang patted Director Yao on the shoulder and said: "You, old Yao, still have some ability, otherwise the bureau would not appoint you as the director of this thermos bottle factory!"
Then Director Liang sighed with emotion: "Old Yao, you are such an old leader! The leaders of this committee are extremely knowledgeable and have a sharp understanding of the situation in our country!
Today, thanks to you, Lao Yao, I had the honor to hear this inspiring speech from the leader of the ministry. It really opened my eyes!
In the past, all the leading cadres of our Light Industry Bureau, including me, who were not following the steps, who regarded the current development of the country as a war without smoke, and who could realize that if we did not catch up, we would not be able to catch up.
If we don’t work hard, we will fall further and further behind!
I decided to go back and summarize Minister Lu’s speech today, and then organize all the leading cadres of the Light Industry Bureau, including the cadres of all the enterprises under the Light Industry Bureau, to hold a serious ideological review meeting. I want to convey the spirit of Minister Lu’s speech today.
Please spread the word, let all our leading cadres have a sense of crisis and a sense that time waits for no one!
For those leading cadres who do not strive for advancement, follow steps, or even stay in their positions, we must give them a hard beating, and if they are no longer good, replace them!
I was really taught a lesson by Minister Lu today! This trip is really worth it!"
At this time, Director Wang also interjected: "Yes, Director, Director Yao, I also received a great education today!
The ideological consciousness and vision of the leaders of this committee are extraordinary. I feel that I am so honored today!
Director Yao, I didn’t expect you to have such an old leader. I’ve never heard of you mentioning it before. You are so lucky!
If I were you! I would go to the old leader's house more often and listen to the old leader's teachings. This is much faster than studying by myself!"
Factory Director Yao responded to Director Wang with a smile on his face, but he knew in his heart that this guy named Wang was nothing but a guy who only flattered the leader!
Although he was not ashamed of Director Wang’s conduct, Director Yao still agreed with Director Wang on the surface and was very polite in his words!
Director Liang just took office this year, but he also knows what kind of person Director Wang is. This is a cadre promoted by the previous director. Director Liang does practical things, and he deeply hates and looks down upon officials like Director Wang!
Now that I heard Director Wang's words, I saw clearly the nature of this director's flattery. I secretly decided that I have been the director for a while, and I have a good grasp of the situation in the Light Industry Bureau.
It’s time to take action against some cadres who need to be adjusted and dealt with. Director Wang will be the first to do it later!
This is a war without gunpowder. With Director Wang being dragged down by subordinates like Director Wang who have little success but only failure, how can I fight the war with peace of mind!
The group of people quickly arrived at a brand new machine tool in the fitter workshop. Before Director Yang could introduce it, Secretary Zhang, Director Zheng and Professor Wu from the Department of Mechanical Engineering of Shuimu University, as well as two mechanics invited by the ministry,
The machine tool experts from the institute couldn't wait to hurry up to the machine tool, and they kept observing the machine tool, moving their hands from time to time, with an inexplicable gleam in their eyes, and discussing a few words with each other from time to time!
Next to the new machine tool stood Yi Zhonghai and Section Chief Zhao. After assembling the machine tool overnight yesterday, Duan Hongxuan personally explained the various performance and technical parameters of the machine tool to Yi Zhonghai in detail, and asked Yi Zhonghai to process several parts by himself.
To further understand the performance of this machine tool more intuitively!
Now Yi Zhonghai can be said to be very familiar with this machine tool and knows it like the back of his hand.
After Yi Zhonghai used this machine tool, he praised it greatly. From his most intuitive feeling, he felt that this machine tool was much better in all aspects than other domestic machine tools of the same type that he had used.
, he even felt that this machine tool was no worse than imported machine tools of the same type. This made Yi Zhonghai admire Duan Hongxuan's ability and at the same time full of confidence in the machine tool project of the steel rolling mill!
Now, Duan Hongxuan arranged for Yi Zhonghai and Section Chief Zhao of the Technology Department to explain and demonstrate this machine tool to everyone. This would further help Yi Zhonghai become famous. On the other hand, it would also be a sign of gratitude to Director Yang for nominating Yi Zhonghai as the deputy director of the machine tool workshop.
A helping hand!
When everyone saw several experts inspecting the machine tools, everyone watched quietly, and no one said a word!
Several experts took a look at the machine tool, and then asked Yi Zhonghai and Section Chief Zhao in detail. Section Chief Zhao took out the technical parameter information about the machine tool that had been prepared and gave it to several experts.
The experts each received a copy, and they also came over and gave it to the leaders!
Several experts over there looked at the information in their hands and asked Yi Zhonghai and Section Chief Zhao from time to time.
The leaders here took a look at the information in their hands and then gathered around Duan Hongxuan to ask. Duan Hongxuan also introduced the performance of the new machine tool to the leaders in the most popular and intuitive language!
When everyone heard Duan Hongxuan's introduction that the performance of this machine tool had completely surpassed that of domestic machine tools of the same type, and was not inferior to imported machine tools, everyone was surprised. Minister Lu and Deputy Minister Xie were even more surprised.
I don’t believe it!
Because Duan Hongxuan’s words are really hard to believe. Those are imported machine tools. Although the two ministers don’t know much about machine tools, they are very clear about the gap between imported machine tools and domestic machine tools!
Because every year, people come to beg grandpa and grandma, and apply to the ministry for a few imported machine tools. It is true that the performance of domestic machine tools is a bit too backward, and some equipment cannot be processed with domestic machine tools at all, and only imported machine tools can be used!<
/p>
The Ministry of Machinery Industry also has a headache every year about this matter. Let’s not talk about whether the imported machine tools are easy to buy or whether they can sell them. Even if they can find channels to buy them, the prices are still extremely expensive and they require foreign exchange!
But the current situation in the country requires money everywhere, let alone foreign exchange!
The Ministry of Machinery Industry is not the only one in the country that needs to import equipment, other ministries, commissions, and other units also need foreign exchange to import urgently needed things!
The current foreign exchange gap is very large for this country. There is really too much food for the people, and the ministry has a headache every year!
Now Duan Hongxuan actually said that the performance of the machine tool he developed is no worse than the imported one. No matter how you look at it, it seems a bit like a pedant!
If it weren't for the sake of the solar cooker just now, Minister Lu and Vice Minister Xie would have already reprimanded Duan Hongxuan. The young man has achieved a little success and then fell behind!
Duan Hongxuan saw the expressions of the two ministers and knew exactly what they were thinking. Although he was slightly unhappy, he could still understand!
Thinking of this, Duan Hongxuan smiled slightly and said to the two ministers: "Uncle Lu, Uncle Xie, this machine tool was developed by me after all, no matter what I say, it's inappropriate!
I think it’s better for the two experts invited by the ministry to test the various performance parameters of the machine tool!
I think the results tested by professionals like them will be more convincing!"
When the two ministers heard Duan Hongxuan's words and looked at Duan Hongxuan's confident smile, they couldn't help but feel surprised, but at the same time they were vaguely expecting and happy!
"Oh? It seems that Hongxuan, you are very confident in yourself and the products you develop?" Minister Lu asked Duan Hongxuan in surprise.
Duan Hongxuan smiled and said: "Uncle Lu, our country is relatively backward in all aspects now, but this is due to historical reasons. This does not mean that the people of our nation are not smart enough!
Our country wants to develop, build, break the Western blockade, and catch up with Western countries in all aspects as soon as possible. Let’s not talk about technology. First of all, we need to have confidence!
We must first believe in ourselves and believe that with our own efforts and our own hands, we will definitely be able to narrow and catch up with the gap between us and Western countries and build our country well!
If we don’t have this self-confidence, we will first think that we are definitely not as good as foreign countries before things are done and the results have not come out. Then how can we narrow the gap with others? How can we catch up with others?
We cannot be blindly arrogant, but we cannot underestimate ourselves either!
In the 1950s, when we defended our country and fought across the Yangtze River, we were far behind others in terms of logistical support and weapons and equipment. But we still dared to fight across the Yangtze River and won the victory in the end.
Victory in this war!
Without this confidence, let alone a war, we would not have dared to cross the river, and there would be no victory at all!"
