Siheyuan: My Northeastern Farmhouse

Chapter 362 Angle (Transition Chapter)
Look, everything just needs to be changed from a different perspective!

Originally, Gu Weijun was beaten by Gu's mother because he concealed the fact that Si was admitted to the hospital, but after changing a few more words, the meaning was completely different.

It can be regarded as Gu Weijun laying the foundation for the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in advance.
Because the red marks on his face were unsightly, Gu Weijun sent Zhu Lin to the gate of the military camp without entering, so he just left without going to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Instead, he called Deputy Director Zheng to ask for a few days off, saying that he was working in Shougang and There is something going on at the Beijing Second Automobile Company.

I am a cadre myself, so why is there a red mark on my face? It's detrimental to your own dignity.
Gu Weijun didn't lie. He did go to Shougang. Last Saturday, the fat old man Qian Wei told him two things with a long sigh. The Soviet Union's Mars probe made a soft landing on Mars, and the American Mars probe also made a soft landing on Mars. Taking photos while orbiting Mars.

And our satellites have just been launched into the sky. We, the people, have a long way to go.

The fat old man relayed the details of his conversation with Qian Xuesen. We must catch up in the aerospace industry. Our strategy is to defend and counterattack, but we must also accumulate enough strength to achieve this goal.

Whether it is thirty years or fifty years, we will definitely catch up with the two hegemons, the United States and the Soviet Union!
At that time, Gu Weijun felt very excited after hearing what the fat old man said. He looked at the fat old man's thinning hairline with compassion. He wanted to tell the fat old man loudly that we can catch up from behind!
Our launch vehicles, our satellites, and our Tiangong Space Station embody the efforts of all scientific researchers who are dedicated to serving the country, and are developed through independent and self-reliant research and development.

However, Gu Weijun swallowed the words as soon as they reached his lips. The food had to be eaten one bite at a time and the road had to be walked step by step. What was the use of just shouting it to himself? No one believes it, but some people believe it, so how do you know?
Therefore, Gu Weijun took the rare initiative to ask for more computing workload.

The fat old man looked at his disciple with approval, nodded slightly, then turned around and continued working, with a smile unconsciously appearing on the corner of his mouth.
Shougang has changed a lot in recent years, from the 64-ton oxygen top-blown furnace started in 30 to the 50-ton oxygen top-blown converter in the past few years, and now to the 100-ton steelmaking furnace being tested now. It has to be said that Shougang has In the area of ​​steel smelting, it has always followed or reached the international advanced level.

Moreover, breakthroughs have been made in the smelting and rolling of special steels, breaking the difficult rules of steelmaking in various countries for more than a hundred years: ordinary steel is smelted from blast furnaces, open hearths or converters, and then smelted into various alloy steels, but China's Steel workers broke this rule!
Ordinary low alloy steel with extremely high corrosion resistance is smelted directly from iron ore. In the past, we thought this was absurd and had always adopted a repressive attitude. By 1965, only a few common alloy steels could be made.

Chief Ji pondered for a while, whispered a few words to Leader Qiao, and then asked Director Miao for his opinion again: "Director Miao, is there anything else you want to say?"

"This is the top priority of our Ministry of Foreign Affairs!"

"In his current job, he has never delayed the work of trade and economy, whether it is wool spinning in the northwest or cotton in Xiangjiang. Doesn't this explain the problem?"

"Just because his previous work in trade and economics was outstanding and it didn't affect other jobs, we can't continue to let him be responsible for all kinds of messy and trivial work in the Western Europe Department?"

Chief Ji looked around at the other people present at the meeting, "Does anyone else have a different opinion?"

Director Miao also closed his notebook and smiled slightly, "I completely agree with Director Zheng's statement."

"Leader Qiao has also worked with Comrade Gu Weijun and knows that he is very comfortable in communicating with friends from various countries."

Not only that, a large number of high-quality alloys have been used in domestic replacement of large-scale ammonia fertilizer plant equipment introduced in 64, ocean freighters, railway vehicles, Yangtze River bridges, high-pressure vessels, etc.
In particular, the Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge boldly adopted technologies that have never been seen in foreign bridge construction materials. Many of these new technologies are jointly created by ordinary workers, technicians, and young engineers.

"This not only distracts his energy, but also affects his ability to continue to make more outstanding contributions to trade and economy, isn't it?"

"If Gu Weijun is transferred to the Economic Department, who will be assigned to do this work?"

But after the rise, steel workers followed the teachings of self-reliance and dared to create boldly. Within two years, new varieties of low-alloy steel were increased by more than ten times, output increased by twenty times, and quality was also improved.

“Shouldn’t our first principle for promoting cadres be to place the right people in the right positions?”

"Let's not talk about anything else. The American emperor is coming again to conduct pre-visit coordination. I am very optimistic that Comrade Gu Weijun will be responsible for this work."

"But someone has to be responsible for other tasks, right?"

Chief Ji nodded in agreement, whispered a few words to Leader Qiao again, and finally made a conclusion: "Then let's arrange it this way first."

Both Beijing Second Automobile Works and Changchun Automobile Plant have benefited from the large-scale supply of this alloy, and the production of automobiles has also increased year by year.

Deputy Director Zheng, or the incoming Director of the Economic Department, closed his notebook, smiled lightly and spoke slowly: "Didn't Director Miao's words just now further confirm Comrade Gu Weijun's ability in trade and economics?"

"Comrade Gu Weijun's abilities and contributions are obvious to all. Arranging him to the newly established International Economic Department is a waste of his entire talent."

In the Ministry of Foreign Affairs office today, the debate about Gu Weijun was filled with smoke.

"I disagree!" Director Miao clearly expressed his opinion.

It’s such a turbulent time
How come there are only storms left in the future?
Gu Weijun was in Shougang's office, seizing the time to calculate various formulas and data. In the afternoon, he went to the test site of the 100-ton steel-making furnace and continued discussions with the master workers, striving to complete the 72-ton steel-making furnace before the Spring Festival of 100. put into use.

"Director Zheng, you are responsible for setting up the Economic Department first and getting it up and running. This work is related to our country's export earnings and is also urgent."

Director Zheng nodded.

"As for Comrade Gu Weijun, we will first arrange for him to be responsible for the detailed docking with the American imperialists and assist Leader Qiao. After successfully completing the visit and reception of the American imperialists, we will transfer his work to the Economic Department in March next year."

"Director Zheng, what do you think of this arrangement?" "I agree."

"Okay, let's arrange it this way!"

After the meeting, Director Miao and Director Zheng walked out of the conference room one after another. Director Miao was the first to speak: "Director Zheng, I definitely did not deal with the issue or person during the meeting."

"It's not that I want to keep Comrade Gu Weijun, but the current reception work for the American emperor cannot be done without him."

Director Zheng turned his head slightly and glanced at Director Miao, his eyes inexplicable, and replied meaningfully: "Comrade Gu Weijun was not included in the two previous receptions."

"Haha!" Director Miao laughed heartily, "The first two times were not on such a large scale, right?"

"We must send out our elite soldiers and generals."

"Really?" Director Zheng raised the corners of his mouth and decisively changed the topic. It had already been discussed and it would be useless to talk more. "Director Miao, I will go to the Economic Department in the New Year. We have to do the work at hand. Take the time to pair up.”

"You also need to think carefully about the personnel arrangements of the Western Europe Department?" Director Zheng stabbed Director Miao lightly or not.

Director Miao's expression froze, and then he replied with a hearty smile: "Haha, it should be, it should be."

"We comrades are all aiming for the same revolutionary goal. Even if there were some small personal conflicts before, it will not affect normal work."

"Well, Director Miao is right!" Director Zheng continued to raise the corners of his mouth in agreement, but there was a bit of yin and yang in his tone.

Looking at the back of Director Zheng going downstairs, Director Miao shook his head helplessly and the smile on his face gradually faded. This woman is so petty. What's the point of just saying these two sentences? It can’t affect me? well.
In the afternoon, as they were about to get off work, Director Miao and Director Zheng were making arrangements for their work in the office. There was a knock on the door, "Come in."

Yu Qiang opened the door and came in. He was about to speak, but when he saw that Director Zheng was there, he quickly changed his words and said, "Director Miao, Director Zheng, are you two busy?"

"Will I send you this feedback document from CCTV and the Propaganda Department later?"

"No, it's almost time to get off work. Don't delay your work." Director Zheng glanced at Yu Qiang lightly, closed his workbook and stood up: "Director Miao, we will continue with the rest tomorrow."

Director Miao smiled and stood up to shake hands, "Okay, as expected of Director Zheng, this work is meticulous. If it weren't for the fact that the Economic Department really needs you to take the lead, I would really be reluctant to let you go."

"We must also give opportunities to young comrades in a timely manner, just like Comrade Yu Qiang. His work during this period is obvious to all."

"Haha, we need to put more burdens on the young people, but we still need the support of the old comrades to hold the direction."

After Director Zheng left the office, Director Miao's expression returned to calm, and he pointed at the thermos, "What do you say?"

Yu Qiang put down the documents in his hand and immediately changed the tea leaves for Director Miao and brewed it again. He carefully brought it to the desk and then said respectfully: "Uncle Miao, I heard about the reception work of the American imperial envoys. , Gu Weijun wants to join in?"

"What? Do you have any objections?" Director Miao blew the tea gently, took a sip, moistened his throat, leaned back in the chair, relaxed and closed his eyes to rest.

"How could it be?" Yu Qiang quickly denied, "I just don't understand. Isn't this an opportunity to add credit to Gu Weijun?"

Director Miao opened his eyes slightly and reprimanded: "Stupid! How do you know that it must be credit? Have you forgotten what you did in Xiangjiang before? As the saying goes, more efforts lead to more mistakes. Are Americans so easy to deal with?"

Director Miao mentioned the incident in Xiangjiang, which made Yu Qiang a little embarrassed, but he immediately returned to normal and tried to resolve it himself, "Uncle Miao, aren't I asking just because I don't understand?"

"There's one more thing I'd like to ask your opinion on?"

"Say." Director Miao continued to calm down.

"Isn't the Economic Department established? Gu Weijun is also scheduled to go there in March. Although I have opinions about Gu Weijun, I also admire his work ability."

"If he goes to the Economic Department, it is conceivable that China Resources in Xiangjiang will have great development."

"Tell me, can I be transferred to China Resources Company first, so that I can take advantage of it?" Seeing Director Miao open his eyes again, Yu Qiang quickly added: "It's just because I didn't handle the work in Xiangjiang well, but also It’s like gaining experience.”

"I believe that if I have another chance, I can definitely do better!"

Director Miao nodded thoughtfully, "That's it."
