November in the capital is already in late autumn, and the wind is blowing coldly. It's about six o'clock in the morning, the sky has just brightened, and the spacious streets are empty. Except for the occasional two cars passing by, there are also sanitation workers.
Cleaning along the street with a garbage truck, collecting large pieces of fallen leaves into the truck, a day in the city begins at their feet.
The train from Fucheng to the capital stopped at the Capital West Railway Station. At this time, the West Railway Station was not as grand as it would be more than twenty years later, but it could accommodate tens of thousands of people at the same time. The train stopped steadily, and Liu Lang and
Sun Hu and the two walked out of the sleeper car with their suitcases in hand. Pedestrians getting on and off the train secretly looked at the suitcases in their hands. This kind of trolley-like suitcase was really rare.
Liu Lang raised his head and glanced at the tall waiting building not far away. It still had the same familiar shape.
In the past six months, he has been to the capital frequently. Although the time each time was short, he did a lot of things. For example, he went to the capital in August to meet with the crew of "Forrest Gump" and took time to shoot with Tom Hanks in the Forbidden City.
A day's play, for which the Forbidden City was specially closed for a day. This was also the second time that the Forbidden City
The museum was closed for foreign film crews. The last time it was closed for several days two years ago was for Italian director Bertolucci's "The Last Emperor". This film also enjoyed great reputation internationally and won many awards, including
The male and female protagonists are all Chinese, which can be regarded as a boost to the morale of the Chinese people.
Of course, the national cultural department paid much more attention to "Forrest Gump" than "The Last Emperor". The reason was naturally Liu Lang. They knew that this was a film produced by Liu Lang's company, so they spared no effort to provide help, because this
The movie will definitely have a lot of Chinese scenes, and will promote this country to the world through the strong influence of Shengtang Company.
In fact, this is also the case. Liu Lang specially added a lot of drama in the capital to the scene when Forrest Gump comes to China to participate in the table tennis competition. Forrest Gump is walking alone on the street. At this time, he is actually very lonely in his heart and feels that his whole life
It's like a small boat traveling from the United States to China, completely out of my control.
Forrest Gump accidentally walked into a small alley and got lost. He couldn't turn out no matter how hard he turned. At this time, he saw an old man doing Tai Chi. He was curious and walked over to ask about this kind of thing.
What is the slow movement?
The old man said.
"This is an ancient health-preserving boxing technique in China. Although these movements are weak, it is like water, which is endless and endless. Isn't this the same as our life? Many people feel that they cannot control their own destiny. This
It's just that they don't see themselves clearly. Everyone is like a drop of water. No matter how it flows, it will eventually flow into the sea. Young people, you just need to find the sea in your heart!"
The old man's words have a very profound philosophy, and they also point out the direction for Forrest Gump. This is a very important plot, and it can be said that it gave Forrest Gump a huge inspiration.
A-Gump asked again about the way to leave, and the old man pointed ahead: Keep walking and don't be disturbed by the side roads around you, so that you can find the scenery you want to see.
A-Gump followed the old man's guidance and moved forward. Because he had a goal, he really saw a different scene. The ancient buildings made him realize the long history and profound cultural heritage of this country.
When he left the alley, he saw the tall and majestic Forbidden City in the distance. When he walked in along the road, he saw a child sitting on the "lion". This child was naturally Liu Lang. He was holding a book.
"World History", there was another conversation about openness between the two.
There is a metaphor hidden in this scene. An old man and a child represent the two cultures of China. The former is a long history, and the latter is a symbol of openness. This clearly reflects the attitude of this ancient civilization towards reform and opening up.
, and adds depth to the film.
In addition, this scene captures the Forbidden City in a very grand and beautiful way, and every shot can become a landscape painting. After the movie is released, it will definitely attract many people to travel to China.
Of course, in addition to filming movies, Liu Lang had many other tasks in the capital. The most important one was to discuss cooperation with the Capital Steel Plant in smelting high-carbon steel.
Liu Lang has a deep connection with the Capital Iron and Steel Plant. They had a happy cooperation in the manufacturing process of stainless steel smelting furnaces. Later, the Iron and Steel Plant and Huaxia Industrial Technology Co., Ltd. also signed a technical training agreement. Employees of Huaxia Industrial Technology can provide
The other party provides technical services, while the other party provides internship opportunities for students from Huaxia University. The cooperation between the two parties has been very pleasant over the years, and the Capital Steel Plant has also made great technological improvements.
Liu Lang had already mastered all the technology of the high-carbon steel smelting furnace and gave it to Huaxia Industrial Technology Co., Ltd. two years ago. The improved smelting furnace can not only smelt better alloys, but also save 3%.
Tens of energy, but because the transformation requires funds, probably tens of millions, no company took the lead in this matter, so for more than a year no one paid attention to this matter.
Later, the Ministry of Industry, Chang Jiang Botao, learned about this project and ordered the Capital Pressure Vessel Manufacturing Factory to be responsible for the transformation of the project.
This job is actually very easy, at least much easier than manufacturing a stainless steel smelting furnace. It just requires a large amount of funds. After the funds were obtained, it only took more than three months to successfully manufacture it.
As a result, this latest smelting furnace became the flagship product of the Capital Pressure Vessel Factory. Each unit cost 400,000 yuan. More than 30 units were sold within two months. Within half a year, all the initial investment was recovered.
At this time, those smelters realized that they had suffered huge losses. Two years ago, Huaxia Industrial Technology Co., Ltd. came to them and wanted to cooperate in manufacturing. Unfortunately, they did not agree because they thought it was too expensive. Now a manufacturing plant that was originally losing money relies on this smelting furnace.
After coming back from the dead, not only did it turn losses into profits, it was also featured in the People's Daily, becoming a typical enterprise established by the country, and the factory director was also elected as a national model worker. Who can reason with this?
Of course, there is no room for reasoning. I can only blame them for their lack of vision and allowing the Capital Pressure Vessel Factory to receive a big gift for no reason.
The container factory is grateful to Huaxia Industrial Technology Co., Ltd., but the biggest contributor to this matter is Liu Lang. It was Liu Lang who came up with a set of drawings. Huaxia Industrial Technology Co., Ltd. overcame all difficulties based on this set of drawings, and then let the pressure vessel factory
It was just produced, but his name was not disclosed at Liu Lang's request.
Of course, Liu Lang has no connection with the pressure vessel factory. After the success of the smelting furnace, many manufacturers bought it, especially the Capital Steel Plant, which bought five units at one time, with an annual output of 20,000 tons. Liu Lang now needs a large amount of high-carbon
Two thousand tons of steel were ordered at one time, with a total value of more than four million yuan.
The smelting furnace was designed by Liu Lang. Now he is buying the product he created. It is quite interesting to think about it. But Liu Lang doesn't care. For him, equipment such as stainless steel smelting furnace is just a casual one. There are many
He is too lazy to make something that every company can do. Such low-end products are simply not worth spending too much energy on.
Two thousand tons of high-carbon steel have been shipped to Fucheng a long time ago. Workers have begun to make cutting tools, starting with molds, then turning, milling and other processes. It doesn't matter if they make mistakes, or if the scrap rate is high. There is plenty of steel, but it doesn't matter if it is used or not.
High-quality technical workers are not only trained, but also produced with money. Norinco has enough money to produce more than 200 workers.
