I built an armada

Chapter 42 Awarding! First-class personal merit!

Captain!

Su Dingping stared at the military officer's ID card closely, and his heart surged: From now on, I will also be a person with an identity.

As for hiding his name and being an unknown hero, he doesn't care at all.

"Comrade Su Dingping, please rest assured."

Zhang Zhaoxin said seriously.

"When we overcome the current difficulties, when we become stronger, you and the countless unknown heroes will become famous all over the world and become a model for countless people to learn from. Your achievements and contributions will never be forgotten!"

"This is nothing." Su Dingping said with a smile: "I don't do scientific research for the sake of honor."

Picking up the military uniform, he looked around and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it.

Zhang Gongnong said: "Try it!"

"Okay."

With that said, Su Dingping quickly changed into military uniform.

He carefully put on his epaulettes and straightened the brim of his hat. He stood in front of the sink and looked at himself in the mirror, and found that he looked quite presentable.

The whole person's mental outlook took on a new look, and he became more heroic for no reason.

"Professor Zhang, don't mention it, this dress fits you quite well."

After cleaning himself up, almost subconsciously, he held his head high and took a few goose steps based on what he learned from Zhou Qinglei.

In an instant, he felt a very strange feeling in his heart, and an inexplicable sense of honor enveloped his heart.

Seeing Su Dingping constantly looking at themselves, Sun Yongguo and others had smiles on their faces.

The more they looked at this young guy, the more they liked him.

"It's a pity that my family is not a daughter, otherwise..." Zhang Zhaoxin sighed with emotion.

Zhang Gongnong on the side laughed twice and said nothing.

He knew the inside story. The girl named Guo was beautiful, well-educated, had a clean background and a good family background. In his opinion, she and Su Dingping were both talented and handsome.

Putting away his emotions, Zhang Zhaoxin said seriously: "Comrade Su Dingping, the next step is the formal part."

Su Dingping quickly puffed up his chest and looked at Zhang Zhaoxin with bright eyes.

Zhang Zhaoxin took out a sealed document from inside the box.

After confirming that it was correct, he tore the seal, took out the certificate of honor and military rank order inside, and picked up the military officer's ID card in the box.

Zhou Qinglei shouted from the side: "Stand at attention!"

Immediately, everyone straightened up and became serious.

It was obviously Sun Yongguo's room, but at this moment it became a solemn auditorium.

Facing Su Dingping, Zhang Zhaoxin said, holding the certificate.

"Dear Comrade Su Dingping, in recognition of Comrade Su Dingping's major scientific research breakthroughs, after discussion and decision, Comrade Su Dingping will be awarded the rank of captain, with deputy battalion status."

"On behalf of Commander Xu, I would like to issue you a military rank order!"

Deputy battalion position?
  Su Dingping was secretly shocked.

The deputy battalion position is already the limit for captains, and many majors also hold deputy battalion positions.

It is no exaggeration to say that he is one step away from being a major at this moment.

After reading it out, Zhang Zhaoxin handed Su Dingping the military rank order, certificate of honor, and military officer's ID card.

Su Dingping solemnly accepted it and gave a military salute to Zhang Zhaoxin.

Zhang Zhaoxin straightened his epaulettes for Su Dingping and then returned the salute.

"Comrade Su Dingping, from now on, you are a member of our navy!"

After doing all this, Zhang Zhaoxin took a few steps back.

Su Dingping put away his military officer's ID card and his eyes lingered on the military rank order. In addition to Xu Dongguo’s signature, there is also Liu Huaming’s signature.

Seeing this name, Su Dingping felt a little familiar. Just as he was thinking about it, Zhang Gongnong suddenly walked out in goose steps.

He took out a merit medal and another certificate of honor from the box and walked to Su Dingping.

At this moment, he was filled with emotions.

When he made an exception and recruited Su Dingping as his disciple, he really valued Su Dingping's talent and wanted to cultivate it well.

Little did he know that less than two years later, that student had already become the target he needed to learn from.

When he showed Su Dingping the photos of 956E, he never dreamed that just six months later, he would personally award Su Dingping a medal of merit.

The 20-year-old captain also has a first-class personal merit, which is unique in peacetime.

Times have changed, and Zhang Gongnong is full of joy.

He was very lucky that he had recruited Su Dingping, otherwise, such a good prospect might have been poached abroad.

Su Dingping glanced at what Zhang Gongnong was holding and was suddenly shocked.

and also?

Gongnong Zhang gathered his mind and said seriously.

"In view of the outstanding skills and professional knowledge demonstrated by Su Dingping in this 956E research operation, he provided valuable guidance and support to the 335 Research Institute and made a significant contribution to the development of the Navy. After discussion and decision, Comrade Su Dingping Record your first-class merit!"

"First-class merit? Professor Zhang, I..."

Before Su Dingping finished speaking, Zhang Gongnong said: "Comrade Su Dingping, you deserve this! The leader said at the beginning that no one should be rewarded less."

With that said, Zhang Gongnong personally gave Su Dingping the first-class merit medal to wear.

Looking at the merit medal hanging on his chest, Su Dingping's heart was ups and downs.

He didn't expect that he would receive such a major award just because he conquered the core technology of 956E out of his own heart.

After patting Su Dingping on the shoulder, Zhang Gongnong's eyes turned red.

"Comrade Su Dingping, good job. I was right about you. You have conquered the core technology of 956E, which is very important to us."

"Dean Sun, myself, Professor Li, and the researchers involved in the research, we were so excited that we couldn't sleep at night."

While speaking, he glanced at Sun Yongguo and Li Mingrui, then turned back and continued.

"At the beginning, many people thought we couldn't do it, but what about now? You used your practical actions to prove to those who doubted us that if others can do it, so can we!"

Zhang Gongnong's mood gradually rose.

"You have inspired many researchers!"

"Now everyone is working hard and wants to make some achievements to prove that we Chinese people can do it!"

"Dean Lu and the others are the best examples!"

For Dean Lu, he has the most say.

He clearly remembered that when he learned from Sun Yongguo's office that the 956E attack plan was suspended, he was completely confused and lost his direction.

If Sun Yongguo hadn't explicitly prohibited it, he would have wanted to go to Lu Guangjun and Cheng Yiqiang to settle the score.

Why do you say we can't conquer it? Why do you say we can't do it? Is that a warship that I bought with money? No, that is the hope that was cut off in the middle!
  If 18 billion US dollars are thrown in, there will not be enough money to tackle the problem for at least three years.

But at that time, he had no choice but to wait silently for the 956E research plan to be restarted for the second time in an unknown year.

Just when he was at his most desperate, Su Dingping appeared with hope.

Thousands of thoughts came to his mind, Zhang Gongnong's body trembled slightly, and his voice was a little hoarse.

"Dingping, thank you! On behalf of all the researchers at the 335 Research Institute, I would like to express my solemn gratitude to you!"
