As the conversation between the two ended, Shi Zhen was completely panicked. He quickly said to Ma Guoliang, "Commander, I know I was wrong. It was all due to my confusion. Please forgive me this time!"
Seeing Shi Zhen like this, Ma Guoliang was even more furious and started to scold him: "Look at you, you look like a wretch. Do you still look like a soldier? Stand still!"
Shi Zhen instinctively stood up straight, but his eyes were still full of panic.
Ma Guoliang continued, "Soldiers represent integrity and courage. If you make a mistake, you must have the courage to admit it. But look at what you have done. You keep saying that you know you are wrong, but ask yourself, do you really know you are wrong? Humph, let me answer for you, Shi Zhen, this is not called knowing you are wrong, this is called fear. You are afraid of losing your official position and being demoted! If you really knew you were wrong, when I asked you those questions just now, you should have taken the initiative to admit your mistakes, instead of admitting your mistakes when you heard me call the people from the Military Affairs Department! You, Shi Zhen, have been working at the 523rd for ten years, right? So far, have you produced a light weapons research result that you are proud of? No? The business is sparse and the management is chaotic. Even if you were given the position of deputy director, do you think you have the ability to lead the 523rd Institute to move forward?"
Shi Zhen stood there with his head down, his face flushed. He felt as if he had been stripped naked. All the dirty thoughts in his heart were mercilessly turned out by Ma Guoliang and displayed in front of everyone.
After Ma Guoliang finished speaking, he didn't look at him again. Instead, he swept his eyes over the others and said, "What I just said wasn't just about Shi Zhen. Some of you also played a role in fueling the flames of Comrade Xu Jianguo's incident. I hope these people will come to me and admit their mistakes as soon as possible. If you wait for me to come to you, then the situation will be serious!"
Ma Guoliang's words made some of the people tremble even more violently than before.
"Remember this, everyone. The 523rd Institute is a national scientific research institution. Its success or failure is linked to everyone present here. I hope what happened to Comrade Xu Jianguo is the last. If something similar happens again, take off your clothes and get out of here immediately!" Ma Guoliang paused after speaking, then continued with a look of disappointment, "You are such a bunch of idiots! You have no idea what you've missed this time!"
After hearing this, everyone looked at the people around them and saw a hint of regret in each other's eyes.
Many people even wondered, if they had taken the initiative to help Xu Jianguo do something at that time, would the situation be different today?
At this time, Tai Wei's voice sounded outside the door: "Report!"
After hearing this, Shi Zhen shuddered and his face turned even paler.
"Come in!"
The door of the conference room was pushed open, and Tai Wei walked in with four cadres from the Military Affairs Department.
Ma Guoliang looked at Shi Zhen and said, "Shi Zhen, remember what I just said. I hope you can live up to the military uniform you are wearing!"
Shi Zhen said in a trembling voice: "Yes, Commander, I will definitely remember your words. I'm sorry, I embarrassed you!"
Ma Guoliang waved his hand and said, "Let's go!"
As the others left, the meeting room became quiet again. Ma Guoliang continued, "Pei Zhiwei!"
"Here!" A man wearing black-framed glasses stood up.
"From now on, you will take over Shi Zhen's position temporarily. When your director is away, you will be responsible for the daily management of the entire 523. If you encounter any problems that cannot be solved, you can come to me directly." Ma Guoliang said.
"Yes!" Pei Zhiwei said expressionlessly, not showing any joy at all because he temporarily took over the position of director.
"Okay, let's end today's meeting here. Team leaders, please stay and give me the list. Then I'll go back and tell them to report to Comrade Xu Jianguo at the small workshop at 8 a.m. tomorrow."
After Ma Guoliang finished speaking, everyone in the meeting room who was not involved stood up and walked out, and the six team leaders reported the list of selected personnel to Tai Wei.
After everyone else left, the team leaders of Class 3 and Class 4 stayed and sincerely admitted their mistakes to Ma Guoliang.
"Manage your subordinates well, do your job well, and stay away from other messy things!" Ma Guoliang scolded.
"Yes, please rest assured, Commander, we will never do it again!" said the two team leaders.
"Okay, let's go back!"
"Yes, goodbye, Commander!"
After everyone left, Ma Guoliang led Tai Wei towards the small workshop in the backyard.
Standing in front of the somewhat dilapidated house, Ma Guoliang saw Xu Jianguo drawing at the table through the glass window.
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart: "If there were more young people like Xu Jianguo, Longxia Country would be strong!"
After opening the door and walking in, Ma Guoliang went straight to the inner room. At this time, Xu Jianguo was drawing the blueprints of fragmentation grenades and magnetic grenades. Both types of grenades use a delayed trigger device. The difference is that one is a defensive grenade and the other is an offensive grenade.
The difference between the two is that defensive grenades mainly rely on fragmentation to kill, and are more powerful. They are usually used by soldiers to throw out from fortifications. Because they are protected by bunkers, the commander does not have to worry about the power and killing radius of the grenade and does not have to worry about his own safety.
Offensive grenades need to consider the safety of the soldiers throwing them, so they mainly rely on air waves to kill the enemy. Their power and killing radius are much smaller than those of defensive grenades. Magnetic grenades are a type of offensive grenade. They have the ability of directional blasting and killing, and are particularly suitable for targeting vehicles and other vehicles.
Xu Jianguo did not notice Ma Guoliang's arrival and was still lying on the table, drawing the blueprint carefully.
Forty minutes later, when the drawings of the two grenades were completed, Xu Jianguo put the carbon pen used for drawing into the pen holder and planned to stand up and stretch. It was not until then that he found that Ma Guoliang and Tai Wei were standing in front of the table, looking at him with a smile.
"Commander, when did you arrive?" Xu Jianguo asked in surprise.
"Haha, I've been here for more than half an hour. Seeing that you were concentrating on your painting, I didn't disturb you. How is it, have you finished your painting?" Ma Guoliang asked with a smile.
"Well, the painting is finished!" Xu Jianguo said with a smile, as he moved a chair and placed it behind Ma Guoliang.
After Ma Guoliang sat down, Xu Jianguo said, "Commander, there is no hot water here. Please be patient!"
"It's okay, I'm not thirsty. Can you tell me first what this thing you drew?" Ma Guoliang waved his hand and said.
Xu Jianguo was not pretentious. In the next half hour, he gave a brief explanation of the characteristics, power and usage of the two grenades, which left the two people stunned.
