"Technician Wang, excellent! This process is truly eye-opening." Director Yan was beaming; this was a great achievement.
Although he didn't propose this theory, its widespread adoption by him has been immensely beneficial to him. At the very least, in the future, whenever this theory is mentioned, he'll be mentioned in passing. This will also make his future promotions much easier. Furthermore, this theory is extremely important to the factory.
The two experienced technicians that Director Yan brought to help were also quite capable.
As soon as they came on, they pointed out several problems.
One of the older technicians was initially worried that Wang Shouren might think they were there to cause trouble, so he spoke very politely.
But after Wang Shouren said, "We're all here to debug, so just say what the problem is. This is an experimental workshop; we need to keep modifying it until it's suitable," he felt more at ease and the progress accelerated.
After a busy day, Mr. Wang hummed a little tune and rode his beloved little bicycle home.
This reform is of great significance.
In a sense, the reform of the steel rolling mill can only be described as Wang Shouren finding a path that belonged to the steel rolling mill.
However, the reforms at the machinery factory further proved that his approach was correct; this served as validation. The reforms were nearing completion, and Wang Shouren was essentially only working on leftover scraps at the factory. Just yesterday, Li Weiguo came down to inquire about the progress, obtained some information from Factory Director Sun, and then rushed back.
I reckon the higher-ups are also waiting for his report.
While pondering this, he turned onto a side path he usually took.
Transportation wasn't very convenient these days, but there was one problem: there were a lot of back roads.
Once you get used to it, a 40-minute drive can be shortened to 30 minutes.
Unfortunately, a bicycle suddenly appeared around the corner on what was supposed to be a quiet, deserted path. Luckily, he reacted quickly, swerving the handlebars and pulling the bike to a stop with a stylish slam. The guy on the other side, however, wasn't so lucky; he was practically thrown off his bike.
He cursed his bad luck inwardly.
If we run into them, we should always lend a hand.
Wang Shouren parked his bicycle and walked over.
"Comrade, are you alright?"
"Wang Technology?"
"Huh? You recognize me?" Wang Shouren was a little puzzled. The man in front of him looked to be about thirty years old. He searched his memory but couldn't remember who this man was.
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "You don't recognize me, but I recognize you."
Then, he suddenly pulled a dark object from his pocket and pointed it at Wang Shouren.
Gun?!
The thought flashed through my mind, and cold sweat broke out instantly.
In that instant, my mind went completely blank.
The middle-aged man sneered, "Wang Jishu, if you want to live, come with me obediently. If you want to die, I'll send you on your way right now."
The man's words brought Wang Shouren back to his senses in an instant.
spy?
Having never experienced these things in his previous life, in that era, even walking alone at night probably wouldn't have been a big problem. Now, suddenly encountering something like this, he was momentarily unable to react.
The other party threw a black cloth at him and said, "Blindfold yourself. Don't make me say it twice, you're just a technician. It's not worth risking your life for them. Come to our side. We'll guarantee you a life of luxury!"
"Uncle, have you seen my Shouren?" Qin Jingru knocked anxiously on Uncle's door.
The third uncle opened the door, looked at Qin Jingru, and paused for a moment: "Oh right, why hasn't Wang Shouren returned yet? That shouldn't be the case, since today isn't any special day."
Wang Shouren always returned home at a very regular time. According to him, he followed standard working hours, worked hard during work hours, and rested well after work, avoiding the bad habit of working overtime. Of course, he only said this to Qin Jingru; if he told others, who knows what kind of rumors would spread.
"Yes, I haven't replied yet. Haven't you heard from me either?"
It was already eight o'clock. Normally, Wang Shouren would be home around six o'clock.
"No, something's not right. Wait a minute, I'll go with you to find Uncle San." Uncle San said, then turned and went back into the house.
"What's wrong?" The third aunt had already lain down when she saw the third uncle preparing to go home to get his clothes. She asked, "I don't know what happened to Wang Shouren. He hasn't come back today. I have to go and check on him, just in case something happens."
"Okay, then go and take a look."
"Father, I just heard about Wang Shouren, what's wrong?" Yan Jiecheng also came out of the house.
He's currently riding high on success; his marriage to Yu Li is finalized, and they'll probably get married sometime this year or next. Then, his family will be the envy of everyone—a dual-income household. All of this, besides his own father, is thanks to Wang Shouren's abilities. Therefore, the disdain he held for Wang Shouren in his younger days is long gone. Now, the mere mention of Wang Shouren makes him incredibly quick-witted.
Moreover, it was only at the steel rolling mill that one could truly understand the extent of Wang Shouren's influence.
"Okay, you can come along too. He hasn't come back yet today, and I have to go see my uncle."
The night was bright and the weather wasn't too bad. A few people knocked on the door of an old man's house.
Seeing so many people, the old man knew something was wrong. He went back into his house to get his things while asking, "What happened?"
"Wang Shouren hasn't returned yet, we don't know where he's gone. We need to go look for him. Don't you think he might have encountered a spy?" the third uncle suggested.
Qin Jingru's heart leaped into her throat, and her voice trembled slightly: "No...no way..."
At this moment, the Qin family, whose house was next to the old man's, also came out.
"What's wrong?"
In an instant, many households in the courtyard were awakened by the commotion.
"Sister, Brother Shouren, he... he's gone missing." Qin Jingru burst into tears as soon as she saw Qin Huairu.
Qin Huairu didn't think much of it when she heard this, and looked at the old man and asked, "Uncle, could it be that Wang Shouren has some social engagements or something?"
Having gained some experience, she wasn't as anxious as Qin Jingru.
"I don't know, I'm not sure, we have to go out and look for it." The old man said with a gloomy expression. In fact, he already had a vague guess in his heart.
He looked around and said, "Alright, alright, no need to stand around here anymore. I'll go out with the Yan family and look for it. Go do whatever you need to do. It's not a big deal."
