"Researcher Wen is really excited. If I could develop a machine like this, I'd be happy too. Please let him take it easy for a while."
Director Fang nodded.
It's not possible not to give him some time to calm down. Looking at him like this, it seems that he won't be able to talk properly for a while.
After a long while, Wen Jinyuan slowly calmed down and felt a little embarrassed.
"I'm so sorry, I'm so happy. I made you laugh."
Shen Annian smiled and said, "Don't say that, we are just as excited as you are.
Therefore, I leave this application document to you. You are an expert in this field, so you should write it in more detail."
Wen Jinyuan nodded and said, "Okay, leave it to me. I can give it to you in two days, no, I can give it to you tomorrow."
Shen Annian: "Don't be so anxious, you guys should have a good rest first, and we'll talk about everything after you've rested."
Wen Jinyuan hesitated for a moment and said, "Then I'll write it tomorrow. I should be able to finish it in one day and show it to you then."
"Can."
No matter how anxious she was, she couldn't rush these old comrades.
But now she still needs help with something, which is to ask Wen Jinyuan to write down the technology he used for her, so that she can talk to others about it later.
She wants to find someone for help but knows nothing. Will others trust her or help her?
Wen Jinyuan found a pen and paper and wrote down everything Shen Annian wanted to know.
After handing the paper to Shen Annian, he asked, “Director Shen, the refrigerator research has been successful. What should we do next?”
If he had nothing to do, he would feel that this salary was too much to handle.
He was even more worried that with nothing to do, they would send him back to where he came from.
Shen Annian folded the paper carefully and put it in his pocket.
After hearing what Wen Jinyuan said, she said, "I plan to research urea. It would be great if we could develop our own machines to produce urea."
Wen Jinyuan was stunned for a long time after hearing her words.
This young lesbian is so bold.
In 1973, the country spent a lot of money to import fertilizer production equipment from abroad. To this day, their country's urea still relies on foreign machines.
With just a small number of people like them, it is nothing short of a fantasy to want to develop a machine.
Director Fang had no idea how difficult it was to produce urea, and he thought this was a good idea.
The amount of urea they are allocated each year is limited and not enough, not to mention the common people.
If they can really produce urea, it can be said to be a benefit to the people.
But when he looked at Wen Jinyuan's expression, things didn't seem that simple.
"What's wrong? Can this machine be built?"
Yao Chong had been listening to their conversation, and upon hearing this, he said, "It's not just difficult, it's harder than climbing to the sky.
Our country has imported a complete set of equipment from abroad. Do you know how much it is worth? "
Director Fang saw their expressions and tried to boldly say a number of words, the largest number he thought.
"Millions?"
Yao Chong shook his head. "One set of equipment is worth hundreds of millions of dollars."
Director Fang gasped. Hundreds of millions, and in US dollars.
Even if you sell all the officers and soldiers of the three regiments by weight, you still can't raise enough money.
"This...hundreds of millions of dollars."
He felt hot just saying it.
How much money does this cost?
Yao Chong nodded, "Just one set of equipment costs hundreds of millions of dollars, plus transportation and installation fees, which are also considerable.
Alas, the machines we purchase from abroad often encounter various minor problems. Those people take advantage of us because we cannot produce spare parts and no one knows how to repair them.
When a machine breaks down and can't be used, we have to hire someone from abroad to fix it, which is both expensive and time-consuming."
Director Fang was so angry that he cursed, "How can these bastards be so wicked?"
So shameless.
Shen Annian: “There is no other way, we don’t understand, so we can only ask them for help.
That’s why I think we need to develop our own machines so we won’t be controlled by them in the future.”
Who doesn't want to? But do they have the ability to do so?
Yao Chong was afraid that Shen Annian was just being impulsive and making such a decision without thinking. Once he started researching, it would be a bottomless pit.
"Do you know how big the synthesis tower for producing urea is? It weighs over 300 tons. When it was first shipped back to China, it needed to be cut up and then reassembled after it was shipped back to China.
"Transporting equipment is already difficult enough, and manufacturing this equipment is even more difficult. The pressure of synthetic ammonia compressors is very high, and the pressure and temperature resistance are even stronger than the hull of a submarine."
Director Fang's facial expression went out of control. Doesn't this mean that as long as they can research that tower, they can build a submarine.
This is too difficult.
"That sounds like it's impossible to do. Why don't we just forget about it?"
He looked at Shen Annian, and seemed to be asking for Shen Annian's opinion, but in fact he had already rejected the proposal.
Shen Annian certainly knew how difficult this matter was.
There is a saying in later generations that the threshold for judging a great power is whether it can produce urea.
There are fewer countries that can produce urea than countries that own aircraft carriers.
They only have so few people, so doing this is really nothing short of a fantasy.
"Researcher Yao, I've thought about what you said. If we can apply for a patent for our refrigerator, I believe we will be able to recruit more people in the future.
If we can’t build it in three years, we’ll spend five years. If we can’t build it in five years, we’ll spend ten years. We’ll always succeed.
Agriculture is the foundation of a country, and producing fertilizers can ensure food production and benefit the people."
