Chapter 208
"Xiao Shen, you don't know yet, Hanhua Machinery Factory has set up a chemical equipment base in Xunyang, specializing in the production of export equipment. The Light Chemical Department said that our equipment is also idle, so we might as well sell it to them. Look, Manager Lin and the others are here to pull these devices today." Wei Dongqi explained to Shen Jiale.

Shen Jiale is a child of Shihuaji, and Wei Dongqi is her father's generation.After Shen Jiale entered the factory, she quickly became the best welder in the whole factory and even in the whole province. As the technical section chief, Wei Dongqi naturally treated her differently, and his relationship was very good.If it were someone else, Wei Dongqi wouldn't bother to explain so much.

"Such a good device, why don't you just let it go?" Shen Jiale said as if talking to himself.She walked forward slowly, like Wei Dongqi did, reaching out to wipe the nameplate on the argon arc welding machine.

Next to the model nameplate of the equipment, there is also a small aluminum plate nailed by the petrochemical machine itself, on which is written the serial number of the equipment, the date of purchase, and the bottom is the inscription: Jiangnan Petrochemical Machinery Factory.Due to the relatively long time of use, some oil stains have been stained on the aluminum plate. Shen Jiale wiped it a few times, but it was not wiped clean. He simply took out a small handkerchief from his pocket and rubbed it vigorously until the plate was wiped. Polished as bright as new.

Everyone present was inexplicably moved, no one said a word, just silently watching Shen Jiale doing this meaningless thing, with mixed emotions in their hearts.

Whether it is Wei Dongqi and Fan Shibin who are engaged in technology, or Feng Xu and Yang Chunshan who are engaged in front-line operations, everyone has a common characteristic, that is, they are all engaged in industry and deal with machines all day long.When complaining, everyone naturally complained that their work was tiring and dirty, envied that the cadres in the organization could dress clean all day long, sit in the office, smoke, drink tea and read newspapers.However, if it is true that they never deal with these machines again in this life, everyone will feel hard to leave.

Veterans will be nostalgic for the smoke on the battlefield, old farmers will love the fragrance of the soil, sailors will find it difficult to sleep when they leave the sea, and industrial workers, the most difficult part is the roar of the machine and the fragrance of the oil.

"Lin Zhenhua, promise me not to pry this sign off, okay?" Shen Jiale turned her head, looked at Lin Zhenhua, and said in an almost begging tone.

Speaking of which, this request is really unreliable. This kind of brand is a symbol of the ownership of a piece of equipment.When the Hanhua factory bought the equipment, it would naturally have to pry off the original plate and put on its own equipment plate. This is a routine, and it is impossible for Shen Jiale to understand.However, she just had such a faint feeling that Lin Zhenhua should agree to her request.

She didn't think about what kind of friendship she and Lin Zhenhua had. In fact, they didn't spend much time talking together.But in her heart, she felt that Lin Zhenhua was the same person as her.What they have in common is that they all have a kind of innocent love for one thing, which cannot be measured by money and interests.

When bidding farewell to these beloved devices, Shen Jiale felt a tingling pain in his heart, and there was no one to talk to.In the whole world, she felt that only Lin Zhenhua could understand her pain and give her a little comfort.

As Shen Jiale expected, upon hearing her request, Lin Zhenhua nodded without hesitation: "Xiao Shen, I promise you."

"Thank you, Lin Zhenhua." Shen Jiale's voice was choked with sobs, "That's fine, you pull them away, it's much better than letting them rust here. At least, they can continue to work, better than me... "

At this point, she couldn't go on anymore.She turned her head, took a last look at the batch of welding machines, then turned and trotted away, not even having the courage to say goodbye to everyone.

"This girl..." Wei Dongqi said with a sigh, "Oh, she is the one who suffers the most from selling these devices."

"Then she doesn't do electric welding anymore?" Yang Chunshan asked from the side.He and Shen Jiale are in the same industry. Although they are a generation older, they are not as good as Shen Jiale in electric welding technology. Because of this, he has always admired Shen Jiale very much.

Wei Dongqi said: "I won't do it. The electric welding in the refrigerator is not the same as what we used to do. Now all the workers in our container workshop have been transferred, and most of them are now engaged in assembly on the assembly line. Xiao Shen's My lover is the assistant to the factory manager, and I helped her move around a bit, she is now sitting in the office of the administrative department."

Feng Xu said: "That's fine. Burning electric welding is too harmful to the body. It's fine for a female comrade to sit in the office and take care of the housekeeper and children. I think she seems to be a little fatter now, and her face is fair. "

Wei Dongqi shook his head and said: "No one knows what she thinks. Others are very happy when they go to the office. It's her, who seems to be reluctant. It turns out that although she didn't talk much when welding, But it makes people feel energetic. Over the past year or so, I feel that she has grown old all of a sudden, she is still the same person, but she has no air."

"Chief Wei, are there many transferred workers like Xiao Shen in your factory?" Lin Zhenhua asked.

"There are quite a lot." Wei Dongqi replied, and just after he finished speaking, he understood what Lin Zhenhua meant, and said with a smile: "Manager Lin, don't try to get their ideas. Our workers have been working in this factory for so many years They work in the factory, and the factory is their home. If you want to break the wall, it may be very difficult."

Lin Zhenhua smiled and said, "Where did Mr. Wei say that? How dare I pry the corner of our petrochemical machine. I just think that the skills of some workers are really wasted. If you talk about these things on the assembly line, find a few migrant workers It can also be done, isn’t it a pity to let these seventh-level and eighth-level mechanics do it?”

"Workers, what do you do?" Wei Dongqi shook his head and said, "I was still a college student studying chemical equipment, but now, don't I also switch to designing refrigerator handles?"

"Refrigerator handle?" Fan Shibin was puzzled.

"That's right, it's the handle on the refrigerator door. Old Fan, don't underestimate this handle. It's very knowledgeable. Our factory manager's request is that it should be beautiful, practical, strong, conform to the world trend, and reflect European style. Style. I’m so old, I still don’t know what European style is.” Wei Dongqi said teasingly.

"A while ago, didn't you say you were working on compressors?" Fan Shibin asked meaningfully.

"What kind of compressor are you doing?" Wei Dongqi was full of complaints. "In my opinion, the principle of the compressor is just an arithmetic problem for elementary school students. I can draw the drawings with my eyes closed. But the technology can't solve it. What should we do? We used to For chemical equipment, they are all big machines, so it doesn’t matter if they are slightly different in size. Refrigerator compressors are just a little bit smaller, and the accuracy of parts is much higher than our current equipment. Our factory can’t solve the problem of measurement in the process of processing. .They have pneumatic gauges, roughness gauges, micrometers, roundness gauges, and three-coordinate measuring instruments, but we don’t have any. Should I raise an accuracy requirement and ask the workers in our metalworking workshop to measure it with their palms?"

Fan Shibin gave Lin Zhenhua a look. Lin Zhenhua hesitated for a moment and asked, "Mr. Wei, what you mean, if these things can be solved for you, you can definitely make the compressor?"

"I don't think it's a problem." Wei Dongqi said, "I've read some information on the compressor these days. Most of the design and process requirements are now public knowledge. The difficulty is mainly in terms of equipment. I heard that Shanghai is negotiating with Japan's Mitsubishi to introduce a compressor production line. There is also another aerospace factory that plans to introduce a line from West Germany. They mainly solve equipment problems."

"Well, it seems that Chief Wei is really an expert in compressors. We will definitely ask you for advice when we have the opportunity in the future." Lin Zhenhua nodded and said.

"Why, your Hanhua factory wants to make compressors?" Wei Dongqi sensitively heard the subtext in Lin Zhenhua's words.

Lin Zhenhua smiled slightly: "It's just an intention at the moment, whether to do it or not depends on the opportunity."

"Oh..." Wei Dongqi replied thoughtfully.

Fan Shibin looked at Lin Zhenhua, opened his mouth, wanted to say something but didn't say it.He didn't quite understand what Lin Zhenhua meant, and it was not convenient for him to say anything more on this occasion.

Everyone stopped talking about this topic. Wei Dongqi called a crane and started hoisting the equipment one by one onto the truck from Hanhua Factory.There is a large shearing machine whose size and weight have exceeded the loading range of Jiefang trucks. Lin Zhenhua will rent a flatbed truck for shipment in the future.

"Okay, it's all installed, Manager Lin, please sign it." Wei Dongqi handed a notebook to Lin Zhenhua and asked him to sign for confirmation.

Lin Zhenhua signed it, handed the notebook back to Wei Dongqi, shook hands with him, and said, "Thank you, Chief Wei, I hope we will have the opportunity to cooperate in the future."

"Definitely, definitely." Wei Dongqi said, "These equipments can be used to the best of their ability when they arrive at your place. Manager Lin, I really admire your courage. A factory as big as ours has stopped producing pressure vessels. How dare you Four sets of fertilizer equipment can be brought back from Thailand."

Lin Zhenhua said proudly: "These four sets of fertilizer equipment are nothing, they are just 10 tons of side dishes. Mr. Wei Ke, look at it, next step, we have to go to the Middle East to sell oil refining equipment."

"Really?" Wei Dongqi's eyes lit up, "I can give you some advice in this regard. In the past, when the Ministry of Machinery Industry and the State Planning Commission were engaged in the research of 11 tons of ethylene equipment, we also participated in it. A lot of experience."

"Okay, let's make a deal." Lin Zhenhua agreed happily.

Four large trucks slowly drove out of the factory area, pulling the equipment abandoned by the petrochemical machine.Workers stopped from time to time along the way, pointing at the equipment on the car and discussing in a low voice.As employees of the same system, most of them know that Hanhua Factory has taken over the export equipment, and they also have various feelings in their hearts.However, the efficiency of refrigerators produced by petrochemical machines is very good nowadays, and the benefits in the factory are better than in the past, so everyone doesn't have too many ideas.

Of course, there are also people who are dejected.In the small building of the factory headquarters, Shen Jiale stood in front of the window of the administrative department, silently watching this scene, tears streaming down her pretty face.

"Xiao Lin, I thought you wanted to pry Lao Wei away." Fan Shibin said to Lin Zhenhua on the truck.

Lin Zhenhua smiled and said, "You're right, I'm thinking about it. I've heard from Director Xie that Lao Wei is very good at chemical equipment."

"That's right, his level is higher than mine." Fan Shibin said unabashedly, "Xiao Lin, since you have this idea, why don't you tell him face to face?"

Lin Zhenhua said: "It's not appropriate for me to say it? After all, he is the technical section chief of a large state-owned factory. How can I openly pry the corner? Lao Fan, I want to ask you to do this matter. You invite Lao Wei to drink in private." Let's have a drink, let's find out what he has to say. As long as he is willing to come, we can talk about the conditions."

Fan Shibin nodded and said: "You are right. We are all of our age. If we change the unit, there will be a lot of troubles. I think Lao Wei will also have concerns. His two children are in the petrochemical plant. When it comes to work, the whole family is equivalent to the people in the factory. If he leaves like this, it will be inconvenient for the family."

Lin Zhenhua said: "It doesn't matter, you listen to what he has to say first. Things like children and houses are easy to talk about. For real talents, we don't hesitate to pay any price."

Hearing what they were talking about, Feng Xu also interjected and asked, "Xiao Lin, I don't like Lao Wei, but I think Xiao Shen is pretty good. In our factory, there really isn't a welder as good as her. Master Yang, don't be angry." His last words were addressed to Yang Chunshan.

Yang Chunshan said: "Why am I angry? This girl is pretty good. She won four or five No. 1 items in the provincial electric welder competition. I have seen the things she welded, and the welds are the best. Others are much more level-headed, so you can’t accept it.”

Lin Zhenhua said: "Actually, I also thought about poaching her. However, she is the wife of the assistant to the factory director, and she is quite comfortable at work now. How can I drag her into the water again?"

Feng Xu smiled maliciously and said, "Xiao Lin, I remember that you had a good relationship with her in the past. Didn't you bet with her when we were engaged in submerged arc welding last time?"

Lin Zhenhua said embarrassingly: "Old Feng, don't hurt me. You don't even look, my father-in-law is right next to you."

"Oh, oh, I forgot, I'm damned." Feng Xu laughed haha, and at the same time bowed to Yang Chunshan, "Master Yang, I'm just joking, don't take it to heart."

Yang Chunshan countered: "I watched Xiaohua grow up, and I have [-]% confidence in his character. If it were you, Director Feng, I would be a little worried. If it weren't for Mrs. Feng's strict control, you would I don’t know how many people have been harmed.”

"Old Yang, you have to be responsible for what you say." Feng Xu blushed, "Xiao Lin is a junior, you can't say these things in front of juniors."

"I'm hard of hearing, hehe." Lin Zhenhua said proudly, it feels really good to have his father-in-law backing him up.
