Comrade Su Tang made outstanding contributions in cracking major enemy spy cases and overcoming major technical difficulties.
After deliberation by the Party Committee of the Military Region, it was decided to grant Comrade Su Tang temporary permission to resign from his position as Deputy Chief Physician of Surgery at the Military Region Hospital.
He was officially appointed as the leader of the newly established "Military Region Energy Technology Innovation Project Team", with an administrative rank equivalent to deputy regimental level.
He is fully responsible for the research and development and mass production of the thermal circulation furnace!
In recognition of his outstanding contributions, he was awarded a third-class merit and a cash reward of 500 yuan.
The news spread quickly throughout the entire military compound.
Su Tang's reputation reached its peak at this moment.
She was no longer just the highly skilled "Dr. Su," nor was she Commander Qin's beautiful new wife.
Instead, everyone in the family area would greet Su Tang with shining eyes and admiration, calling her "Team Leader Su" and praising her as a leading figure in scientific research.
Su Tang did not get carried away by this, but immediately led the project team composed of Lin Fan, Chen Xue and others to start the research and development of the furnace.
Although I'm so busy every day that I'm far from home, I feel incredibly fulfilled.
However, just as the project team was working hard and the first sample of the thermal circulation furnace was about to be completed.
To strengthen ideological and political work in Tibetan areas, the higher authorities dispatched a new deputy political commissar, Zhou Huaian, from Chengdu to the Riguangcheng Military Region.
Commissar Zhou was about forty years old, wore gold-rimmed glasses, had a refined demeanor, spoke slowly and deliberately, and had an impressive resume that was frightening. It was said that he had a powerful background in Beijing.
On his first day in office, at a meeting to introduce military region cadres, he expressed great interest in and high praise for Su Tang's heat-gathering circulating furnace project.
The next day, Zhou Huai'an personally brought his secretary to inspect the project team.
"Oh, Comrade Su Tang, I've heard so much about you! You're a treasure of our military region, a model of women who are just as capable as men!" As soon as Zhou Huai'an entered the room, he shook Su Tang's hand and smiled warmly.
He also showed great concern for Geng Xiangdong and others, even making a phone call to the logistics department on the spot to resolve several scarce materials that the project team had been struggling to obtain. His decisive and efficient style won him widespread praise from the entire research institute.
Everyone felt that the new political commissar was a good leader who got things done and was approachable.
Only Su Tang, at the moment she shook hands with Zhou Huai'an, instinctively sounded an alarm in her heart.
This man's smile was so perfect, so perfect it was like a mask.
Su Tang observed him discreetly. She noticed that when Zhou Huai'an mentioned slogans like "serving the people" and "supporting frontline scientific research," the crow's feet at the corners of his eyes, or the so-called orbicularis oculi muscle, did not contract at all.
In psychology, this is a typical "fake smile," which is social rather than genuine.
As his gaze swept over the core design drawings of the thermal circulation furnace on the table, Su Tang keenly noticed that his pupils contracted extremely rapidly.
That wasn't appreciation; it was a look mixed with extreme longing and possessiveness.
Su Tang had a clear idea of what was going on, but on the surface she still maintained that humble and respectful demeanor, dealing with the situation flawlessly.
After his inspection, Zhou Huai'an highly praised the thermal circulation furnace project and expressed his full support to promote its mass production as soon as possible, so that soldiers and their families throughout the military region could enjoy a warm winter soon.
The project team members were greatly encouraged and became even more motivated.
A week later, the first prototype of the thermal circulation furnace was finally completed amidst great anticipation!
On the day of the public test, the project team's courtyard was surrounded by three layers of people, a dense crowd of people, including officers and soldiers in military uniforms, as well as family members and military spouses with their hands in their pockets, all craning their necks as if they were going to a market.
