Peng Miaomiao said with a questioning expression:
"Teacher, it's like this, I have a friend..."
"Then he took me to his friend's factory to train him in welding techniques."
"I've never dealt with this kind of thing before."
"Teacher, do you have any advice for me?"
After hearing the whole story, Teacher Ji...
He was greatly surprised: "You mean, someone has asked you to train them in welding techniques?"
Yes, that's right.
Professor Ji frankly stated, "We must support this project, after all, it is a national project, and as scholars, we have an obligation to provide assistance."
"There aren't many factories like this that are so focused on making money, especially after the reforms. These people only care about making money and don't care about improving the industry's technology."
Peng Miaomiao strongly agreed with what her teacher said.
Welding is an essential part of industrial tailoring.
But it is precisely this crucial step.
However, technology in mainland China is in a state of stagnation.
Of course.
In theory, it's not much different from what's done abroad.
The only difference is the lack of practical application.
Most factories still rely on experienced workers passing on their skills and knowledge.
The new welders didn't have much theoretical knowledge; they all learned by trial and error.
Under this model, it is simply impossible to train a large number of skilled welders.
Advanced welders are trained through countless hours of practice with welding rods; this requires a significant amount of time.
This is clearly contrary to the development direction of the mainland.
Teacher Ji has also suggested on several occasions that aspiring welders should be trained together.
We need to improve our skills repeatedly so that when we need advanced welding techniques in the future, we won't be left without options.
But the proposal wasn't even approved by the school, let alone heard by higher-ups.
The school unanimously agreed that Professor Ji's proposal was too far-fetched and too expensive.
We'll talk about the future later.
Can you guarantee that advanced welding technology will be needed in the future?
Wouldn't that be a complete waste of time and money?
It would be a thankless task, so it was rejected.
Teacher Ji had no choice but to focus on teaching her students.
Let them master more theory and practice, which may come in handy someday.
Teacher Ji is very supportive of Peng Miaomiao's situation today.
One of them quit because the master welder gave up.
But the idea of training other welding workers in a unified manner is progress!
As a teacher, I am happier to see others make progress than to see myself make progress.
Of course, we should give it our full support.
Peng Miaomiao asked, "Teacher, what should I do?"
Teacher Ji replied, "You've always been the one learning; teaching and learning are two different systems."
"A good teacher can elevate a student to an unlimited level."
"This requires time to hone."
"However, you have to take the first step in everything."
"My suggestion is to simplify the theoretical terms and make them easy to understand, since factory workers are unlikely to have very high levels of education."
"Don't talk about anything too complicated. Focus on what the factory needs to do and what kind of welds it needs."
"I won't talk about anything else, or it will only make things more confusing."
Peng Miaomiao shook her head: "So troublesome."
"Of course, I was terrified when I first became a teacher. The more I was afraid of not teaching well, the worse I taught."
Teacher Ji continued, "Just don't feel guilty."
Peng Miaomiao nodded: "Then I'll go to the site and check the situation before I decide."
"Um."
"Thank you for your guidance, teacher. I'll be going now."
Teacher Ji nodded with satisfaction.
The only female student was someone that Teacher Ji doted on.
If it were any other male student, they wouldn't have offered such comforting words.
The criticism was definitely tinged with masculinity.
"Oh, right!" Teacher Ji said to Peng Miaomiao as she was leaving, "According to the rules, you might receive a gift from the other party. Don't be shy, be sure to accept it."
"You deserve it."
Peng Miaomiao smiled, her eyes crinkling: "They said the appearance fee would be no less than this amount."
Peng Miaomiao held up two fingers.
Teacher Ji was immediately startled: "Twenty thousand?"
"Uh-huh!"
Teacher Ji stroked his chin: "This factory is quite wealthy!"
"ah?"
Teacher Ji quickly corrected herself: "No, I meant you're quite capable!"
"Okay, I'll go with you tomorrow!"
"ah?"
“I’ll back you up in a factory that’s so ambitious.”
"ah?"
"I don't want your appearance fee, and I don't need to pay you one. I'm just here to cheer you on!"
"oh."
Peng Miaomiao, who had been harboring her own thoughts, finally came to her senses.
I thought the teacher was going to steal my money.
If that's the case, then it doesn't matter.
With a teacher on-site, the results will be twice as good with half the effort!
"Thank you, teacher!" Peng Miaomiao said with a smile.
Teacher Ji chuckled: "Don't mention it! You're my student, so of course I have to help you."
After Peng Miaomiao left.
Teacher Ji paced back and forth in the office.
He muttered to himself, "No matter the outcome, I'll get a 20,000 yuan appearance fee. If things go well, I'll definitely get more."
"This shows that this private factory is quite wealthy."
"If that's the case, could I also use that help to work on the research topic I want to study?"
"This welding technology for Invar steel, although not needed now, must be planned for in advance!"
"Other countries are already far ahead of us."
"The school's funding is too tight and not enough for our own use at all."
"If we pull some strings and get some sponsorship, it shouldn't be a problem, right?"
