"Boss, great news! Great news!"
As soon as Director Yang entered Vice Minister Bai's office, his face beamed with joy. He quickly walked up to Vice Minister Bai and excitedly began to report.
"Zhenhua is here. What good news do you have? Tell us."
Vice Minister Bai smiled and put down the documents in his hand, looking at Director Yang with great interest and anticipation in his eyes.
Why is it said that there is more good news?
That morning, the Iron and Steel Research Institute announced a major breakthrough in steel quality.
The person who made the greatest contribution to this breakthrough was the newly joined Comrade Wang Lefeng.
"Sir, the hot rolling mill modification work was successfully completed this morning, and all tests have been completed. Here is the relevant report for your review."
After finishing speaking, Director Yang hurriedly handed the report in his hand to Deputy Minister Bai.
"Oh!" Upon hearing this news, Vice Minister Bai felt a surge of excitement.
After a long period of preparation and effort, this work has finally made substantial progress.
He eagerly reached out, took the report, and began to carefully read through it.
Vice Minister Bai probably doesn't know much about hot rolling mills.
However, this report is full of data streams, which, when compared with data from older machines, make the information readily apparent.
"Zhenhua, you didn't falsify this report, did you? The data after the modifications is astonishing. If it's true, that's incredible! You wouldn't...?"
After reading the report, Vice Minister Bai asked in confusion.
I was really scared by some of the false reports from the past two years, so I have to be careful.
"Boss, the data in this report is absolutely accurate. We were all present at the time, and it even omitted a little bit. If the workers could use the machines skillfully, the yield and output could be improved even further."
Upon hearing what Director Yang said, Vice Minister Bai smiled.
"I trust you, but we still need to be cautious, after all, this involves the interests of the country."
"Don't worry, boss, we will be careful," Factory Director Yang nodded and said.
"Um!"
"Zhenhua, since the new machine performs so well, let's start a large-scale modification! How exactly should we modify it? Go back and discuss it with Comrade Zhengguo. Listen to his opinions; you can't be laymen directing experts."
"Don't worry, leader. We won't interfere with Deputy Section Chief Sun's work. We'll just provide him with logistical support so he won't have any worries."
"Um!"
Vice Minister Bai nodded in satisfaction, showing great approval of his former subordinate's attitude.
"Alright, keep this report for now and go back to assign tasks! All our focus must now give way to the renovation work. Anyone who dares to hold us back will be severely punished."
"Okay, boss, I'll go back and arrange it right away."
Director Yang rushed over and then left in a hurry, but his mood was completely different from when he arrived. This time, he had made a significant contribution.
The leader has indicated that, if possible, he will serve as both Party Secretary and Factory Director, at which point he will truly hold both Party and government positions.
Upon returning to the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill, Director Yang did not even go back to his office. Instead, he went straight to the warehouse, found Sun Zhengguo, and conveyed the instructions from his superiors to him.
After a moment of silence, Sun Zhengguo immediately presented a detailed plan:
First, we must go all out to produce the parts needed for the renovation; second, the renovation project will officially begin tomorrow morning.
In addition, the renovation work will be carried out in batches, completing the renovation of one workshop first, and then moving to the next workshop to ensure that the renovation and production are not disrupted.
Finally, an additional maintenance team will be added to modify 2-3 machines simultaneously. The entire modification process is estimated to take about three months.
After listening to Sun Zhengguo's renovation plan, Director Yang expressed his support without hesitation and said he would fully cooperate with the work.
After the two discussed it, Director Yang made arrangements, asking some key technical personnel to work overtime to ensure the quality and quantity of parts production in preparation for tomorrow's renovation work.
At the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill, everyone is working hard and full of energy.
The Ministry of Metallurgy was also busy. Vice Minister Bai instructed his secretary to revise the two reports and then urgently send them to the General Office.
The General Office took these two reports very seriously and immediately delivered them separately to General Manager Lai's desk.
It was late at night, and General Manager Lai, who was still working, had finished a huge pile of reports and instructions, and finally picked up the two reports from the Ministry of Metallurgy.
After reading the two reports, even the tired-looking General Manager Lai couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.
This good news came at just the right time. Last year, many military projects were halted because the steel did not meet the standards.
Unexpectedly, not only have the machines been improved, but the quality of the steel has also met the standards, and even far exceeded them.
This is somewhat puzzling. Why has progressed so quickly?
After reading the two reports, it seemed that General Lai understood. Both reports mentioned the same name: Sun Zhengguo.
Including a previous report, this is the third time Mr. Lai has seen this name. The last time was apparently a report about machine tools.
That report received unanimous approval from the Northwest expert group, and Mr. Lai still remembers it vividly.
Upon seeing this, Mr. Lai became interested in Sun Zhengguo and pressed the switch button on the table.
"jingle!"
Hearing the bell, the staff outside carefully pushed open the door and came in, asking softly, "Mr. Lai, what can I do for you?"
"Make a note of this. If this renovation plan is completed, I plan to go and inspect it," said Manager Lai, pointing to the plan on the table.
"Okay, Mr. Lai, we will notify you in advance."
The staff member made a note of the incident, and then mustered up the courage to speak.
"Mr. Lai, it's late. You should get some rest. Staying up late every day is bad for your health."
"Alright, I know. I'll rest after I finish approving these documents," said Director Lai with a smile and a calm tone.
He has no airs of a leader and treats his subordinates like friends, which is kind and natural and makes people feel like they are basking in a spring breeze.
Seeing Mr. Lai's behavior, the staff members were helpless but could not refute him, so they could only silently leave the office.
Meanwhile, Sun Zhengguo, who was in the courtyard house, had finished organizing the renovation materials and was preparing to go to bed.
He was unaware that at this very moment, he had already attracted the attention of Boss Lai.
If he knew this news, I wonder if he should cry or laugh?
I imagine the feeling was mostly one of happiness! After all, being able to meet that kind and approachable General Manager Lai made up for the regrets of ordinary people.
When I get old, this is something I can brag about for the rest of my life.
