Chapter 373: The Heavy Weapon of the Country, the Foundation of the Country
Under Bai Weiren's arrangement, Liu Lang, Xiong Huaizhi, and the directors of more than a dozen manufacturing plants and machine tool factories in Shanghai, led by Dong Mingwu, director of the Shanghai Machinery Bureau, took a bus and came to the Volkswagen Group in Shanghai again.
Headquarters.
Along the way, Liu Lang became the center of attention. The factory directors in their fifties and sixties looked at Liu Lang as if they were giant pandas.
"Old Xiong! You've already stepped into the coffin, and you found a student like Liu Lang. It's really not a loss!"
An old factory director in his sixties and Xiong Huaizhi were old friends and joked.
"I can't teach Liu Lang my skills. I'm just very lucky that Liu Lang can do our job. With him, there is hope for our country's future industry!"
Xiong Huaizhi smiled.
"I said little guy, how old are you this year?"
An old factory worker looked at Liu Lang and asked.
"Grandpa, I am five years old this year!"
Liu Lang replied.
"Oh, he's five years old. Well, he's tall and strong. He's about the same height as my eight-year-old grandson. Not bad, he's good at manual labor!"
"Old Hao, Liu Lang is a genius. There are not many geniuses in history. Why shouldn't the country treat him as a treasure? He eats better than you and I... But! Liu Lang, you are a bit incompetent in learning mechanics. Let's
There is a saying in this industry, it is said that in my last life I lacked great virtue and now I am engaged in machinery... In one word, it means tired! If you don’t believe me, ask these old guys, people are exhausted to death every year, you are still young, hurry up and find someone
It’s an easy job to do!”
An old factory manager said with "serious words and sincere words".
"Hahaha, my old man, you are always so talkative. Don't bring us all with you for your evil deeds in your previous life!"
Everyone burst into laughter.
"Sun Fu, get out of here, you guy. What's wrong with working on machinery? I'm also working on machinery. What's wrong? I was also wicked in my last life. I don't think you were wicked in your previous life, but you are wicked in this life!"
Xiong Huaizhi's face sank and he scolded.
Those present were all directors of well-known manufacturing plants in Shanghai. Most of the old people who were famous in the field of machinery across the country knew Xiong Huaizhi. Many of them had even received training from Xiong Huaizhi thirty years ago. They were not even half apprentices.
That's not an exaggeration, so even though Xiong Huaizhi is just a dean of Huaxia University, his administrative level may not be as high as that of directors of some large factories, but no one dares to show off in front of Mr. Xiong. Even some leaders of the National Machinery Department see Xiong Huaizhi.
Also call me teacher.
"Yes, yes, Mr. Xiong, you are always a special case. Your brothers and sisters are all rich people in Nanyang, but you are a teacher at Huaxia University. If I were you, I would have gone abroad to enjoy my life!"
Xiong Huaizhi's ancestors were well-known Chinese tycoons in Nanyang. They were engaged in the shipping business. At its peak, the Xiong family owned dozens of large ships. They spent their own money to transport materials to the country during the war years decades ago. Later, Nanyang was occupied by the islanders, and the family
As a result, they declined, but their foundation is still there
After decades of development, he has made a comeback and is now one of the richest people in Nanyang. His family has written many times asking Xiong Huaizhi to go back and enjoy his happiness. However, Xiong Huaizhi has never had the idea of leaving his motherland. His wife and children are all in China, and he is most reluctant to leave.
What's more, he can't let go of the country's manufacturing industry.
Not going abroad to enjoy happiness but suffering at home was a commendable thing more than ten years ago. However, after the reform and opening up, I don’t know how many people want to go abroad. Xiong Huaizhi’s behavior is a fool’s behavior.
"Sun Fu, you've started to nag again with your bad mouth? At such an old age, can you worry less? If it were more than ten years ago, I would have arrested him for counter-revolutionary crimes. Believe it or not?"
Dong Mingwu, director of the Shanghai Machinery Bureau, who was sitting nearby, shouted.
"Okay! Director Dong, you are a powerful official. I dare not mess with you. I will shut up. I will shut up!"
Sun Fu sat aside obediently.
"Liu Lang, don't listen to that old man's nonsense. This guy always makes sarcastic remarks. I will take care of him when I get the chance!"
Dong Mingwu looked at Liu Lang and said with a smile.
Liu Lang smiled and said nothing.
Sun Fu is not talking nonsense. People engaged in machinery manufacturing are indeed one of the most tiring jobs in the industry. Their wages were not bad a few years ago, but in the past two years due to rising prices, their wages have not increased much, and they seem a bit cramped.
The work is tiring and it is easy to get sick, and the salary is not high. In addition, these people are not very educated, so they are usually full of complaints when chatting, but this Sun Fu dares to speak out.
"Grandpas, let me say a few words!"
Liu Lang suddenly stood up and walked to the middle of the aisle.
"I know that we who work in machinery are very tired. We deal with machine tools and steel every day. It is common for us to have tinnitus and dizziness. Generally, we will have gray hair when we are in our forties. Everyone here is in good health. At least you can get on and off the car.
Cars, but most people are probably already lying in bed and unable to get up!"
"Liu Lang, you are right! Many of my old friends have gone to see each other in the past few years, and some of them are not even older than me!"
Sun Fu answered.
"Master Sun, I understand what you just said. I just feel that working in our industry is too tiring and the salary is not high. Even a hard-working person can't stand it after decades of work. I understand you very well, so before I say
A few days ago, I told the leaders above about these things and asked them to improve the treatment of our industrial workers. I believe the country will implement it soon."
Liu Lang said first.
"What? You want the state to raise our wages?"
Everyone is interested, and the salary issue is a big issue!
"That's right, just wait and see about this!"
Liu Lang knew that the country was indeed working to improve the treatment of industrial workers and also implement a professional title review system. These two measures would be implemented nationwide by the end of the year at the latest.
"Are you telling the truth?"
An old factory manager said.
"Of course it's true, I never tell lies!"
Liu Lang nodded.
"It's really tiring to work on machinery. I admit that. Anyway, I can't do many jobs now. Some parts are heavier than me and I can't move them even if I want to. But why should I learn mechanics? It's because mechanical manufacturing is our profession.
The foundation of the country, why are Americans and islanders so rich? Isn’t it because they have advanced cars, planes and ships? Only with strong industry can we create more goods and sell them to others. Without industrial manufacturing, they can’t even make a single hair.
come out……….
So Mr. Sun, what you just said is that I lacked virtue in my previous life and only engaged in machinery in this life. I completely disagree. Just like this time with Volkswagen, someone bought a car for more than 300,000 yuan. Do you think it’s too much?
Even if it’s expensive, you have to buy it, because you can’t make it yourself. This is the gap! We have to learn! We can’t just stand around and gossip! If you gossip, people will laugh at us as fools... Even one of us will laugh at you.
If you can’t even make spare parts, what are you but a fool?”
"Mechanical manufacturing is the most important weapon of the country, the foundation of the country, and the foundation of a strong country. Some people don't want to do it, but I, a kid, am willing to devote my life's career to it!"
Liu Lang's childlike voice was childish, but there was firmness and confidence in his tone. Everyone present was moved by him.
Liu Lang's words made Sun Fu feel ashamed and wanted to refute, but there was no reason. Didn't he know the importance of machinery manufacturing to the country? Of course he did, but he just felt that the country was too poor now and could not compare with foreign countries.
Why don't we all go make money? Why do we have to live and die in the factory?
"Liu Lang, what you said is so good, have you seen it? A child knows how to serve the country and the people, but you, an old man like Sun Fu, have been living in a dog's belly for many years? You still make sarcastic remarks every day, let's see if I go back.
Get rid of you!"
Dong Mingwu pointed at Sun Fu and shouted.
Sun Fu sat there without saying a word, closing his eyes and pretending to sleep.
Liu Lang's words made the car become silent. Everyone was sitting there thinking about their own concerns. Some were thinking about Liu Lang's words, but more people were still concerned about what Liu Lang said about the country's need to improve their treatment.
problem.
Most people are thinking: If the salary can go up, our hard work will be worth it!
