Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 251 Notes
The next day, Duan Yun brought this set of drawings to the unit.

Except for those who attended the meeting yesterday, no one in the factory knew about the translation task assigned by the Municipal Bureau. Even the secretary of the factory director did not take it seriously. After all, this was not a production task, and they did not think that Duan Yun and Cheng Qingyan's English level is so high that she can translate such complicated English drawings and materials.

After cleaning the department in the morning, the others went about their day with their legs crossed, as usual, with a cup of tea and a newspaper.

Colleagues from several departments saw English blueprints on Duan Yun's desk and took a curious look, but they left soon. They didn't know what Duan Yun was doing, and Duan Yun also You can devote yourself to the translation work wholeheartedly.

"Duan Yun." At ten o'clock, Cheng Qingyan suddenly walked into the department, holding a small jar in her hand.

"Chief Cheng, what's the matter?" Duan Yun greeted Cheng Qingyan with a smile when he saw Cheng Qingyan approaching.

Duan Yun and Cheng Qingyan have an agreement. When they are in the work unit, Duan Yun can call Cheng Qingyan's position, but after work, the two are classmates and friends, with a clear distinction between public and private.

"This can of tea is for you." Cheng Qingyan said, and put the can of tea in her hand on Duan Yun's table.

The other people in the department were stunned when they saw this scene. These days, subordinates always give gifts to superiors, but Cheng Qingyan, the deputy head of the department, actually gave Duan Yun something, which is indeed a bit unbelievable.

But everyone also knew that Cheng Qingyan and Duan Yun were classmates of Ye University, and they had a very good relationship, but they didn't expect it to be this good.

"What do you mean?" Duan Yun was stunned for a moment after glancing at the pot of tea leaves on the table.

"Last time you gave me two speakers, my dad was a little embarrassed..." Cheng Qingyan posted it in front of Duan Yun, and said in a low voice: "This time, the chief of the sales department came back from a business trip in the south and brought some for my dad. A can of Biluochun, he asked me to bring you a can."

"Haha, what am I supposed to do." Duan Yun smiled and said, "It was originally something I made myself, and the cost is not much. Your father doesn't need to be so polite."

Duan Yun was actually very happy when he heard what Cheng Qingyan said. Even Cheng Changlin, who likes to be picky, likes this speaker very much, which shows that his speaker design is quite successful, and it should be very popular in the market in the future. of.

"You are still amazing. The speaker is so good. My dad listens to music with these two small speakers in the hut alone every night. Good stuff." Cheng Qingyan said with a smile.

"As long as your dad likes it." Duan Yun pondered for a while, and then said: "If I have new products in the future, I will give them to you for home use..."

"That can't be done..." Cheng Qingyan frowned when she heard the words, she obviously didn't want Duan Yun to spend money.

"It's not in vain." Duan Yun saw Cheng Qingyan's thoughts and said, "I just gave it to your family for trial use. Your father likes listening to music so much. He can tell if the speakers are good or bad. In the future, I will put new products in your house. If it sounds uncomfortable, I still need your father to give me some advice, if it is good, I will also help you sell it to your guests, we are just helping each other."

"Then... alright." Hearing what Duan Yun said, Cheng Qingyan could accept it, and then she nodded. After seeing the materials being translated on Duan Yun's desk, she asked, "How is the translation going? Yes?" Isn't it difficult?"

"Anyway, I have nothing to do, take your time." Duan Yun said with a smile.

"Okay then, go ahead." Cheng Qingyan waved to Duan Yun, turned and left.

After seeing Cheng Qingyan leave, Duan Yun picked up the jar of tea and took a look, then opened the lid and smelled it.

Biluochun was also known as "Scaring Fragrance" in ancient times. The aroma of tea leaves is very strong. The moment the lid was opened, Duan Yun smelled a fruity aroma.

In his previous life, Duan Yun preferred to drink coffee, but these days coffee is a rarity, and tea is the most popular drink.

Putting some tea in his model worker enamel cup, Duan Yun got up and went to the door to pick up a thermos to make himself a cup of tea.

All the people in the department looked at Duan Yun directly, and couldn't tell whether it was envy or jealousy in their eyes.

Just now they all saw Cheng Qingyan delivering tea to Duan Yun with their own eyes. The personal relationship between the two of them is obvious, so some people who were displeased with Duan Yun's late arrival and early departure before were completely convinced this time, and never thought about it again. I'm thinking of making a small report with the leader...

Duan Yun was oblivious to the gazes of everyone in the department, returned to the table, took a sip of tea comfortably, and continued to translate the documents...

……

By around four o'clock in the afternoon, Duan Yun had basically translated all the more than 100 pages of materials.

In fact, the main reason why the translation is so fast is that most of them are drawings and materials. You only need to simply translate some remarks and nouns.

If according to Ruiyang's request, Duan Yun could go to the city bureau this afternoon, but Duan Yun obviously didn't intend to do so, he had other ideas.

Duan Yun has been in contact with many stamping machine products in his previous life, and he also has a deep technical understanding of this equipment. In addition, compared with the advanced digitally controlled high-power stamping machines of later generations, this obsolete stamping machine imported from Germany is obviously too much. too far behind.

In fact, this kind of stamping machine is not a German product, but an equipment imported from the United States after World War II. At that time, Germany was divided into two parts after World War II. West Germany suffered a lot of industrial damage during World War II, and finally relied on American technology. The blood transfusion of the equipment gradually restored the industrial system, so the drawings and technical instructions of this equipment are all in English.

The equipment that the United States provided to West Germany in the 60s after World War II will naturally not be the most high-end equipment, so this machine is already quite backward in the world, and there are some problems in the design principle and use, so Duan Yun can easily understand this equipment. Put forward some suggestions for improvement and optimization.

In the evening, Duan Yun still went to class with Cheng Qingyan as usual. After returning home, Duan Yun helped his sister with her homework and added a lot of notes and optimization explanations to the drawings.

On the second day, Duan Yun spent another morning to complete the final remarks. After getting off work at noon, he put the original drawings and translations into the file bag and left the unit.

When returning home from get off work with Cheng Qingyan, Duan Yun took the excuse of submitting translation materials in the bureau to ask for an afternoon off. Cheng Qingyan was amazed at Duan Yun's translation speed, but also readily granted Duan Yun a half-day leave. After all, this was originally a bureau. The assigned task, besides, Duan Yun did the work of two people by himself...
