After Huang Er was expelled, the atmosphere in the workshop was somewhat oppressive, and the workers were noticeably distracted.
Even at lunchtime, everyone was listless.
Upon discovering this situation, after lunch, Li Shengli came to the workshop and began to talk to everyone about it.
"Comrades, don't feel burdened. Huang Er's case is just an isolated incident. I believe that all of us here are good comrades...!"
However, no matter how eloquently Li Shengli spoke, the workers remained unconvinced.
Just then, Sun Zhengguo arrived at the workshop. When Li Shengli saw him coming, he offered his seat and gestured for him to say a few words as well.
Sun Zhengguo didn't stand on ceremony and walked directly to the center of the field, speaking loudly.
"Comrades, I know you're all in low spirits, but I won't say anything nice. I just want to say one thing."
If everyone can assemble the CNC machine tool within two days, I'll get you a whole pig to improve your lives. I wonder if you can do that?
With a loud "boom!", the entire workshop stirred, and then a worker asked a question.
"Chief, you're not lying to us?"
“Why would I lie to you?” Sun Zhengguo then promised.
"In this way, if you complete the task within two days and I fail to keep my promise, I will pack my bags and leave without you even having to remind me, and go home to take care of my children."
"Oh oh oh...!"
Seeing the workers' happy faces, Master Geng stood up voluntarily to make amends for his mistake.
"Stop grinning like an idiot, everyone. The director is so generous, we can't let him down. Let's get to work!"
"Yes, yes, let's get to work."
The workers then returned to their posts and began working meticulously.
Seeing the workers regain their former confidence and cheerfulness, Li Shengli, who had watched the whole thing, shook his head with a wry smile.
I've said a whole bunch of nice things, but in the end, it's not even worth as much as a pig. Where can I even complain to them?
As Sun Zhengguo's car was leaving get off work in the evening, it was stopped by a person who suddenly jumped out.
"Damn it, who is this? Are they looking to die?"
With quick reflexes, Sun Zhengnan slammed on the brakes and stopped the car, cursing under his breath.
Then, upon seeing who it was, he turned around and said, "Brother, it's Huang Er."
"Hmm!" Sun Zhengguo nodded upon hearing this, but simply opened the car window and showed no intention of getting out.
Upon seeing this, Huang Er quickly ran over and said with a sorrowful expression.
"Director Sun, I know I was wrong. You are a magnanimous person. Please give me another chance and don't send me back to my original unit."
"Huang Er, are you joking? This is not my decision alone, but the result of discussions by the entire Party Committee. I have no right to change it."
"Go! Go back to your original unit and work hard. Don't try to be clever in the future. I believe that with your abilities, you won't have to worry about making a living even if you go back to your original unit."
After Sun Zhengguo finished speaking, he prepared to close the window.
If this person had made other mistakes, he could have forgiven him, but someone like Huang Er would only be a menace if kept around, and there was no point in saying anything more.
"Director Sun, please give me another chance. I will definitely correct my mistakes in the future. I have a level seven worker skill, and I believe I can definitely make a difference. Please..."
Seeing Huang Er still pulling the window shut, pleading desperately.
Sun Zhengguo remained unmoved and simply waved his hand, signaling his cousin to drive.
Seeing his elder brother's actions, Sun Zhengnan didn't hesitate for a moment, immediately shifted gears and accelerated, and the car sped off.
The car's sudden start caused Huang Er to stumble, and before he could react, he was almost knocked over.
He knew the situation was hopeless, and could only watch the car drive away with resentful eyes.
For a fleeting moment, he considered revenge, but upon further reflection, he dismissed the thought.
I have elderly parents to support and young children to raise, and I also have a decent skill; I don't think I'd end up like that...
Given the unequal social status, what recourse do you expect him to have for revenge?
Meanwhile, inside the jeep, Sun Zhengnan also had a question that puzzled him, so he asked.
"Brother, why do you think Huang Er is so resistant to being sent back to his original work unit?"
"Haha! Why do you think that is?" Sun Zhengguo said with a very disdainful laugh.
“Someone like him, who is sent back to his original unit with a disciplinary action, will at least be demoted, or at worst be dismissed. He will have no hope of being evaluated or promoted for the rest of his life.”
“It’s that serious?” Sun Dahe, who was sitting next to him, was very surprised because he didn’t understand these things.
"It's alright! Huang Er has the skills to back him up, so firing him is probably unrealistic, but he'll definitely be demoted."
After hearing Sun Zhengguo's explanation, everyone in the car fell into deep thought...
Two days later, the workshop of the research institute was unusually lively.
Technicians and workers are putting the finishing touches on two CNC machine tools.
Meanwhile, all the research institute's staff arrived at the workshop, ready to witness the birth of my country's first CNC machine tool.
Looking at the two machine tools with very different styles that were about to be completed, everyone was very happy. This was all thanks to the walking machine. Li Shengli asked happily.
"Director Sun, this machine tool looks very different from ordinary machine tools. I wonder how it is to use?"
"Hehe! Don't rush, Deputy Secretary Li. If time allows, you might be able to see its performance before dark."
Sun Zhengguo was in a good mood at the moment and replied cheerfully.
"Oh my! Director Sun, stop keeping us in suspense. You designed the entire machine tool, so I don't believe you don't know its performance. Please explain it to us."
"To avoid being caught off guard when leaders come to inspect and I have no idea what to do. Otherwise, it won't just be me who loses face, but the entire institute."
Deputy Director Zhang's words resonated with the cadres, who all echoed his sentiments.
"Yes, yes, Director Sun, please tell us!"
"Yes! Director Sun, we don't even understand how to start a machine tool. Could you please explain it to us so we can learn more?"
"..."
"Alright! Then I'll tell you all about it."
Seeing everyone's eagerness to learn, and since he had nothing else to do, Sun Zhengguo began to educate the cadres about machine tools.
"The biggest difference between CNC machine tools and ordinary machine tools lies in the word 'CNC.' Ordinary machine tools are operated entirely manually, while CNC machine tools have the biggest advantage..."
As Sun Zhengguo's explanations became more in-depth, the cadres were generally able to understand them, and that was sufficient.
After all, there's no point in saying more; they won't do any research and development anyway. As long as they don't embarrass themselves when the boss asks, that's enough.
Half an hour later, while everyone was still watching, Chen Lianshan ran over to report.
"Director, we have completed the assembly of both machine tools as required. Please provide your instructions."
With Chen Lianshan's report completed, it also signifies that the development of China's first domestically produced CNC machine tool has been finished.
