Chapter 122: The Shipyard's Blessing

Zhou Chenglei pulled Jiang Xia's hand and said softly, "Wait for me."

Jiang Xia didn't understand why, so he just stood there waiting for him.

Zhou Chenglei turned to Director Zhou and said, "Director Zhou, can I borrow a pen and paper?"

Director Zhou handed him the letter paper and Hero pen on the desk.

Zhou Chenglei walked out with paper and pen, used the wall outside the office as a desk, and began to write seriously.

Jiang Xia watched Zhou Chenglei write down a few sets of data, then went in and handed them to Director Zhou: "Director Zhou, see if this helps."

"What?" Director Zhou was looking at the blueprint, so he took it and glanced at it casually. As he looked at it, his eyes widened and he quickly said to the technician, "Go and notify everyone to hold a seminar!"

Director Zhou walked forward excitedly and patted Zhou Chenglei on the shoulder: "Comrade Zhou, you may have helped us a lot! Haha... I will thank you again when we succeed!"

Let him think about what he can put on their boat? Zhou Chenglei said calmly: "Director Zhou, you don't have to be polite. Next time you buy a boat, just buy it cheaper."

"Okay, okay! It must be cheap. By the way, how do you know all this? Have you ever learned it?"

Zhou Chenglei only said: "You will understand a little bit if you have been in contact with it. I don't know if it is right, you try it."

If any of his comrades were here, they would know that he had been exposed to it before, and he knew more than just a little bit about it.

Director Zhou laughed and said, "That's amazing! You two are both amazing! Come on, I'll take you out first."

At this time, another technician came in and said, "Mr. Zhou, no, the weld has cracked again! Everyone suggested using propane preheating instead."

Director Zhou frowned when he heard this: "Are you kidding? The weld is several thousand meters long. How many tons of propane will be needed? At least dozens of tons of propane. Where are you going to find the supply?"

"Well, this is indeed a problem, but the orderer doesn't agree to use acetylene. I can't think of anything else to use? It seems like I've tried everything, but it always cracks!"

It was really crazy! The preheating temperature of the leg welding was not well controlled, so it was easy to crack during the welding process. This had been tried many times. The technical engineer scratched his scalp, which had only a few hairs left.

Director Zhou was also troubled. "Think of another way, think of another way! We have overcome so many technical difficulties, and we don't believe that we will be stopped in the preheating of the pile leg welding!"

This jack-up drilling platform is also an export order. They have overcome dozens of technical difficulties. Today, he doesn't believe that he will be stopped in the preheating of the pile leg welding! Jiang Xia heard it and said, "For preheating, can't we use silicon or carbon rods, iodine or tungsten lamps, or calcium silicate boards?"

The technician looked at Jiang Xia in surprise: "What did you just say? Where did you hear this?!!!"

Director Zhou also looked at Jiang Xia suddenly.

Jiang Xia looked surprised: "Haven't you heard of it? I seem to have read it in a book, but I don't know if I remembered it correctly. I don't even remember the specific name, I don't know anything and I'm just talking nonsense, just listen to it, so as not to mislead you, it's none of my business!"

Jiang Xia just told them about the preheater that she had heard of in her previous life to give them a hint.

As for how those preheaters were made, she really didn't know.

She didn't know whether they could use it, or whether it could be made in this era. Anyway, she didn't understand anything at all.

But with such an obvious name for this ingredient, Jiang Xia felt that people who understand would understand, and people who can make it would be able to do it sooner or later.

Sometimes some scientists, inventors, and technicians just need a little inspiration, a little hint, and then they can break through the bottleneck.

Hope that helps!

This era was an era of rapid development and progress in many domestic technologies, but it was also an era of suppression everywhere. Everyone held their breath and worked hard to make progress, striving to become stronger and stronger so as not to be looked down upon by the great powers.

Director Zhou is a hard-working person, and he is also a person who understands! He looked at Jiang Xia's expression and his mouth twitched: Who are these two couples?

"Hold a meeting! Notify everyone to hold a meeting! No, wait a moment, I have to hold the Kent Ring seminar first. No, I have to hold this meeting first! Go and notify everyone to hold a meeting!"

The technician comrade quickly ran to notify everyone to hold a meeting to discuss the matter.

Director Zhou happily said to Zhou Chenglei, Jiang Xia and the others, "Come on, I'll take you out!"

Jiang Xia knew he was busy so he smiled and said, "Director Zhou, you don't have to send me off. Just go and get busy! Just finish the boat that my family ordered as soon as possible."

Father Zhou also said, "Yes, no need to send us off, we can go on our own. Director Zhou, please go and get busy!"

Another boatman called Director Zhou from the other end. Director Zhou responded and said to Jiang Xia and the others, "It's okay. Let's go. I'll take you there. I promise to make your boat as soon as possible. I'll make it for you the first time! Remember to come to the shipyard more often in the future. Come and have a seat whenever you have nothing to do."

Whenever they come to the shipyard, they either bring orders to the shipyard or give him inspiration. It never goes a wrong to come and visit more often.

This couple is truly the lucky stars of their shipyard!

Some ship workers at the shipyard saw Director Zhou so enthusiastically escorting people out personally and thought that Jiang Xia and others were leaders who came to inspect.

Director Zhou accompanied them all the way to the factory gate and watched them leave on their bicycles before he hurried back.

Yes, they ran, ran very fast, and sang the national anthem: "Arise..."

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

In the distance, Zhou's father was riding Jiang Xia's women's bicycle and whistling. His son and daughter-in-law were so proud of themselves! It's better to be educated!

When the boat goes back, he will go around the village and tell everyone about the scene of buying the boat! Jiang Xia rode his bicycle less than halfway, and he didn't know if he had ridden it for a quarter of the way, when he couldn't pedal anymore. His feet felt like they were filled with lead, and Zhou's father took over.

Zhou Chenglei felt a little distressed when he saw his father glaring at the women's bicycle he and Jiang Xia used for their wedding.

He wanted to keep it for life.

Could his father be more polite?

***After leaving the shipyard, the four of them came to the city, found a restaurant to eat, and then went to the publishing house.

Since I passed by a publishing house on the way to the department store, I decided to go there and deliver the book.

As soon as they arrived at the gate of the publishing house, they met Zhang Fuyan, who was there to have dinner with her aunt.

"Xia Xia!" Zhang Fuyan happily stepped forward and took her hand, "Are you here to see me?"

Jiang Xia smiled and responded, then said, "I have something to do in the city today. I just finished translating a book, so I'll send it over to you guys to see if it's okay."

"So soon? Come on, I'll take you to find my aunt!"

So Zhou Chenglei and Jiang Xia went in together, and Zhou's father and Zhou Chengxin decided to go shopping and then meet at the mall.

Zhang Fuyan brought the two of them to her aunt's office.

The office door was open and there was someone inside. Zhang Fuyan gestured to Jiang Xia and the other person to wait.

The three of them waited outside in the corridor.

Since the door was not closed, it proved that what was said was not impermissible, so Zhang Fuyan did not leave and waited outside.

Inside the office, Wen Wan was sitting in front of a large desk, looking a little listless.

Fan Lili was sitting opposite her, proofreading the translation of the science and technology magazine she had submitted this time, her brows furrowed as she read it.
