The next morning, the sun rose high in the sky, and sunlight bathed the earth.
Inside the hot rolling mill workshop of Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill, the roar of machines has disappeared, replaced by complete silence.
All the hot rolling mills were shut down, and workers busily moved between workshops, dismantling equipment and cleaning up the site in preparation for the upcoming major renovation.
Sun Zhengguo led a group of technicians and maintenance workers into the hot rolling workshop.
Upon entering the workshop, Sun Zhengguo immediately spotted Section Chief Zhang, who was in charge of coordination.
He strode up to Section Chief Zhang and asked seriously.
"Section Chief Zhang, how's the preparation of the spare parts we need going?"
Section Chief Zhang smiled confidently. He was prepared for the parts issue, and then he spoke.
"Deputy Section Chief Sun, don't worry. We started working overtime yesterday afternoon to produce them. Although they are not all finished yet, the quantity produced so far is enough to support our renovation plan."
Sun Zhengguo nodded in satisfaction, "Okay! But we still need to speed things up. After all, we're currently shut down for renovations, so we can't afford to waste too much time."
Section Chief Zhang nodded solemnly in agreement.
Then, Sun Zhengguo turned to Chen Lianshan beside him and discussed the specific work plan with him.
"Senior Brother Chen, I plan to arrange things like this: you take Zhao Guoping and the others, plus a group of maintenance workers, and let you act independently. Is that alright?"
"Can!"
Chen Lianshan nodded in agreement without hesitation, his eyes shining with determination.
He knew the importance of this mission and was confident that he could handle it.
After all, he had been involved from beginning to end and studied it every day, so he had already thoroughly understood the principles of these modifications.
Sun Zhengguo continued, "Your task is to be responsible for the renovation of the No. 1 rolling mill. You must ensure that every detail is handled properly and that no hidden dangers are left behind."
Chen Lianshan expressed his understanding and said he would do his best to ensure the quality of the No. 1 rolling mill renovation.
Sun Zhengguo continued, "At the same time, I will personally lead another group of technicians and maintenance workers to be responsible for the renovation of the No. 2 rolling mill. We must cooperate closely, support each other, and work together to complete this arduous task as soon as possible."
"Thank you, Deputy Section Chief Sun!"
Chen Lianshan said happily.
In truth, he knew that Sun Zhengguo was taking care of him. The so-called close cooperation and mutual support simply meant that if he didn't understand something, he could go directly to him.
After assigning tasks, Sun Zhengguo spoke to Zhao Guoping one last time.
"Guoping, you need to learn more from Senior Brother Chen. Strive to be able to handle the next batch on your own after this batch of reforms is completed. The organization has high hopes for you, and you have a heavy responsibility on your shoulders!"
This statement was loaded with meaning, and Zhao Guoping knew what it referred to. So he spoke very solemnly.
"Deputy Section Chief Sun, don't worry, just wait and see how I perform!"
"Um!"
Sun Zhengguo nodded in satisfaction and announced loudly.
"Let's all work together, the renovation work officially begins, let's go!"
"Go for it!"
A series of shouts echoed through the workshop, lingering for a long time.
...
Time flies, and 20 days have passed in the blink of an eye. In these 20 days, the renovation of the hot rolling workshop has come to an end, almost 10 days ahead of schedule.
During this period, the renovation work was not as smooth as expected, and some problems arose from time to time.
However, these problems have all been resolved through the team's concerted efforts.
The fact that this renovation was able to proceed so quickly is undoubtedly due in no small part to Chen Lianshan's efforts.
Chen Lianshan was initially quite unfamiliar with the process and often needed Sun Zhengguo's personal guidance, but he gradually became familiar with it and began to be able to complete the transformation independently.
Zhao Guoping, who was learning from him, has also made great progress during this period. He can now occasionally work on his own and still maintain high quality and quantity.
Sun Zhengguo was very satisfied with this situation and had already made a decision in his mind: when the second workshop was being renovated, the personnel would be split up again so that all three machines could be renovated at the same time.
After the renovation of the first workshop was completed, Sun Zhengguo called the electrician team to start connecting the power. This time, it was an acquaintance who came.
Sun Zhengguo greeted the newcomer with a smile.
"Cousin, I'm sorry to trouble you again."
"What are you talking about? What's the trouble? This is my job."
After Lin Jiguo finished speaking, he didn't bother with pleasantries and immediately led his workers to power up the machines.
Once all the machines were powered on, Sun Zhengguo checked the time and realized it was lunchtime, but he still called over Section Chief Zhang.
"Section Chief Zhang, could you please arrange for workers to start the machine? If there are no problems, it can be put into formal production this afternoon."
"Okay! I'll arrange it right away."
Section Chief Zhang said with a smile, and then ran off in a flash.
Soon after, all the workers who had gone to help in other workshops returned.
As the workers arrived, the machines started up one by one, and the workshop, which had been silent for 20 days, was filled with the roar of machines again.
Seeing that all the machines were running without any malfunctions, Sun Zhengguo nodded in satisfaction and then gave instructions.
"Section Chief Zhang, let the workers go eat! We'll stay here and observe. If there are no problems, we'll start production this afternoon."
"Deputy Section Chief Sun, thank you for your hard work. I'll make the arrangements right away."
After receiving the notification, the workers began to grab their lunchboxes and head to the canteen.
After arranging the workers, Section Chief Zhang went to Factory Director Yang's office to report on the matter.
Upon hearing that Sun Zhengguo and his colleagues hadn't even eaten and were still working in the workshop, Director Yang couldn't remain completely silent.
So they arranged for the cafeteria to add two more dishes for them.
When the afternoon shift officially started, the machines in the workshop had been running for about an hour without any problems, so we were ready to officially start production.
Factory Director Yang and a group of cadres also came to the workshop to witness this historic moment.
With the workers in place, the heating furnace was turned on and the feeding device was activated.
Sun Zhengguo glanced at his watch and then spoke to Director Yang.
"Director Yang, you can make the announcement!"
Factory Director Yang nodded kindly before speaking loudly.
"I now announce that production has officially begun."
At Director Yang's command, the workers began to operate the machines in an orderly manner.
Blocks of red-hot metal are fed into the rolling mill, where they undergo high-speed rotation and pressure to begin deforming and stretching.
Once the final product is formed and sent to the cooling device, the workers will start the second round of work following the same steps.
This process was repeated for about half an hour, and after no problems were found, everyone left the workshop.
Upon arriving outside the workshop, Factory Director Yang, in high spirits, immediately offered a reminder.
"Deputy Section Chief Sun, you haven't eaten yet, have you? I've added two more dishes for you. Go and eat quickly, or you'll go hungry."
"Thank you, Director Yang."
After expressing their gratitude, Sun Zhengguo and the others were indeed hungry, so they all rushed to the cafeteria.
