Material Empire

() In the large conference room of Agricultural Engineering University, the heating was very sufficient. Although there was still a large amount of snow on the lawn outside the window, the room was as warm as spring. Delegates who came from all over the capital to participate in the "Seminar on Agricultural Machinery System Catching up International Advanced Technology Action Plan" gathered together, everyone took off their heavy coats and wore only sweaters, but there was still red light on their faces. Slightly fat representatives also sweated on their foreheads.

Before the meeting started, everyone was looking for their acquaintances and shouting loudly. The atmosphere in the entire conference room was extremely warm:

"Oh, old horse, it's been a long time since I've seen you. How about it?"

"Haha, Professor Niu has made a joke on me, and I'm still the same as before. By the way, I heard that you won another science and technology progress award?"

"It's just a nomination, and it won't necessarily be evaluated ... Hey, isn't that Director Lu, your girlfriend's college entrance examination this year? How about it, there is no problem with the focus ..."

"..."

China's agricultural machinery research system is very large. Simply listed, it can be roughly divided into five systems: research institutes directly under the central ministries and commissions, local research institutes at various levels, scientific research institutions in universities, scientific research institutions in large and medium-sized agricultural machinery enterprises, and individuals outside the system. Or collective agricultural machinery research institutions, some people dubbed it as the five major army.

Within the army, the composition is extremely complex. For example, the research departments affiliated to the central ministries and commissions can be divided into industrial and agricultural outlets. The so-called industrial outlets are agricultural machinery research institutions under the Ministry of Machinery, while agricultural outlets are agricultural mechanization research institutions under the Ministry of Agriculture. This is the case in the central government, as well as in the local government. Repeated configurations of the top and bottom have created thousands of agricultural machinery departments.

Stimulated by the international agricultural machinery exhibition, Cui Hongchun instructed to formulate an action plan to catch up with the international advanced level. Wang Changsong did not dare to neglect, and immediately contacted the Agricultural Engineering University, asking his organization to take the lead in handling the matter. To come up with a plan of action, of course, opinions from all sides must be sought. Subject to traffic conditions, it is impossible for the Ministry of Agriculture to convene all the country's agricultural machinery researchers to the capital, only to let the main units in Beijing send someone to participate in the discussion. But even so. Swipe casually, and there are forty or fifty people.

Although they belong to different systems, they are all engaged in agricultural machinery. Everyone usually cooperates and competes with each other, and there is also a flow of personnel between each other during several institutional adjustments. Therefore, they are basically acquaintances. There is no time for no trouble.

The presiding officer was Wang Changsong, the deputy director of the Agricultural Machinery Department of the Ministry of Agriculture, and the participants were very familiar with it. He looked at his watch. I looked at the situation at the conference hall again, and found that a few heavy figures had already arrived, so I came to the conference table, cleared my throat, and announced to everyone:

"Well, except for a few comrades who are temporarily unable to attend important work, the participants are all here today. Let's have a meeting."

I heard Wang Changsong's voice. The chattering people remembered that they had come to the meeting, not to catch up. They reminded each other. Returning to this seat, some people started to take off the reading banner hanging from the reading room of the reading glasses and muttered in fog: "Catch up ... action plan, what do you mean?"

"Everyone is quiet. This meeting today is very important!" Wang Changsong emphasized with a strong voice. "This is a meeting to implement the important spirit proposed by Minister Cui to speed up the pace and catch up with the advanced technology of international agricultural machinery ..."

Next, Wang Changsong introduced the recent international agricultural machinery exhibition, and listed the gaps between Chinese agricultural machinery and the international advanced level. It also specifically mentioned that Qingfeng Agricultural Machinery Factory was brave in tackling key problems and producing products that could be compared with Japanese products Advanced deeds comparable to rotary tillers. of course. Regarding the grievances between Qingfeng Factory and Fenghe Factory, Wang Changsong did not mention it. He should not make a rash statement about such negative things.

Most of the representatives present at the agricultural machinery exhibition have visited this time, so Wang Changsong said that they have some understanding of the situation. As the saying goes, good things do n’t go out, bad things spread thousands of miles, and the rotary blades produced by the Qingfeng factory did not attract much attention. However, Lou Fuxiang was reprimanded by Cui Hongchun at the exhibition, but it has already spread. The discussion started. The main points of everyone's discussion are mainly whether Lou Fuxiang will be exiled, and what message Cui Hongchun intends to convey through this incident. As for the fact that the blades produced by a county-level agricultural machinery factory can be exported abroad, everyone's comments are common: bragging, who won't.

Of course, Wang Changsong knows what the following people are muttering. However, these people are also some origins. They have real-power corporate leaders and academic bulls. Wang Changsong should not ban them from holding small meetings like middle school students. After finishing the relevant matters, he gestured with his hand and said, "Well, this is the main background of today's meeting, please let everyone speak freely."

Wang Changsong stopped talking, and the crowd stopped talking. Everyone looked at each other, and some of them even gestured to each other with their eyes, meaning they asked the other to speak first. After a few minutes of stalemate like this, Tang Kezhong, a senior professor at the Agricultural Engineering University, stood up and smiled humblely at everyone, saying, "Since everyone is polite to each other, let me start by saying a few words."

"Okay!" Wang Changsong softly echoed and patted his palm a few times, so everyone at the venue applauded sparsely.

Tang Kezhong claims to be the "theoretical authority" in agricultural mechanization. He originally engaged in dialectics of nature. After the state proposed a large-scale agricultural mechanization in the late 1950s, he turned his research direction to agriculture. Before the meeting, Wang Changsong had already greeted Tang Kezhong, so at today's meeting, he was extremely well prepared:

"The issue of agricultural mechanization is an extremely important issue. In order to achieve the goal of quadrupling the total output value of industry and agriculture by the end of this century, we must transform from traditional agriculture to modern agriculture, and this must first be achieved by agricultural mechanization.

Regarding the significance of agricultural mechanization, I say three points: First, the historical experience of the development of agricultural mechanization in the world. Since the mid-19th century when Britain and France began using steam power in agricultural production, the world ’s agricultural mechanization has gone through more than a century ... "

When Tang Kezhong began to speak, the participants who were still alive just now began to slap themselves. Some people pretended to record in the notebook, but actually painted the villain. Some people pretended to be intoxicated and narrowed their eyes into a line. Take the opportunity to raise your soul. At least eight of the ten people in the entire venue were old smoke guns. At this time, naturally they took out cigarettes and began to swallow the clouds at the leisurely place. The whole room was suddenly filled with nicotine and pm2.5.

As the chair of the meeting, Wang Changsong was naturally not good enough. While writing down the main points of Tang Kezhong's speech in his notebook, he nodded from time to time, showing concurrence. In fact, Tang Changzhong said these things, Wang Changsong is too cooked to be cooked, because the old gentleman said this every time, according to the classics, Yunshan mist cover. You said he wasn't on the side. He could really give you some guidance from a historical and philosophical level. You said he was on the side. All the things he said were already mentioned by a mentor in 1870, nothing new.

But such an old gentleman, you can't help but let him talk, because it is said that there are leaders above him who appreciate him very much and say that he has a high level of theory. If he is not involved in a major project, the leader above will ask why he is not looking for him. In fact, Wang Changsong also inquired. The leader above only had a long chat with Tang Kezhong when he was in trouble and was deposed. He admired him at that time. After the leader's return, there is no shortage of opportunities, how can I have time to care about what Tang Kezhong is studying now.

Tang Kezhong finally finished speaking, and seemed to be quite tired. Wang Changsong quickly combined with what he said, picked out a few comments that agreed a little, and then started looking for the next speaker.

With a beginning, the people behind will not hesitate. These people have mixed scenes. Such a meeting does not have the problem of stage fright at all for them, but they are unwilling to be the first protagonists to speak.

"Let me talk about this from the perspective of our research institute ..." An expert from the Agricultural Mechanization Research Institute began to speak. As usual, he first talked about the domestic background in the spirit of the recent speech by the central leadership, and then talked about the international background in the light of the world's scientific and technological development trend. Finally, he realized it and put forward some development directions.

"Our suggestion is that we should give priority to the development of engines, focus on development, and develop vehicles as quickly as possible. This machine refers to the engine, which must be a combination of gasoline and diesel, a reasonable division of labor, a high and low mix, and a system ..." Experts in Chinese all learn with Chinese teachers. UU reading www.uukanshu.com is a parable with a mouthful of mouth, easy to learn and easy to remember.

After the experts from the National Academy of Agricultural Machinery said, the experts at the Beijing Institute of Agricultural Machinery stood up, fully affirmed the previous expert's opinion, and then proposed a few "additions". The meaning of the supplement was to negate the order proposed by the experts of the National Academy of Agriculture. Tractor as a priority development target, small agricultural vehicles should be a key target.

Then came the agricultural machinery plant, the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, and the Agricultural University. Everyone said that it was more lively, but it did meet the requirements of Wang Changsong. There are contradictions in the ideas proposed by various units, and there are similarities between the heroes. It is often that these two units jointly deny the views of the other two units, and then they quarrel with each other internally, and other families find it useful. Taking advantage of this opportunity, they came in and pulled a family.

The kind of harmonious atmosphere has changed quietly. Although everyone ’s titles are still so intimate, they are called “Lao Zhang”, “Lao Li”, or even nicknames like “Wang Fat” and “Liu Mazi”, but in On the issue of stance, they refused to let it go, picking each other's softest ribs into the knife.

This pass is lively! (To be continued ...)
