The rejuvenation of a great nation: from educated youth to national treasure scientist

Chapter 76 Invitation Letter
Sun Shitong also comes from a military background, and his current identity requires him to deal with firearms all the time, so he is extremely familiar with rifles.

After the experience, Sun Shitong said to Wang Haoran with a smile on his face: "Comrade Haoran, I have to say that after your improvement, this gun is more useful and easier to use!"

"Let's go to the range now. I want to test it myself."

Everyone went to the shooting range behind the gun shop.

Sun Shitong personally fired the gun in various shooting postures.

Whether standing, kneeling or lying down, Sun Shitong scored beautiful ten rings with this gun.

Moreover, no matter which posture, after a quick adjustment of the buttstock, it is very easy to use, truly achieving the purpose of making the gun adapt to the person.

Wang Haoran was itching to try it out, so he fired a few shots himself.

He had touched a gun in his previous life.

That was the end of the military training after entering school, and I participated in live-fire shooting.

But the shooting results were terrible.

However, the memory capsule contains shooting experience of various weapons.

The body that Wang Haoran occupies now has also participated in militia training and has good shooting results.

Wang Haoran fired a few shots, and every shot hit the mark.

This surprised Sun Shitong: "Comrade Haoran, I didn't expect that your shooting skills are so accurate."

Wang Haoran smiled and said, "You played really well today."

Next, they tested light machine guns and sniper rifles.

In general, both guns are easier to use than before.

After all the tests were completed, Sun Shitong said to Wang Haoran: "Comrade Haoran, I have a feeling that the gun you designed will be welcomed by the vast number of frontline commanders and fighters! It will become a classic standard gun and be widely promoted."

Wang Haoran said: "As long as I can help the country truly improve the combat effectiveness of its troops, I will be satisfied."

Sun Shitong said: "In order to promote the mass production of this gun, we will invite elite frontline fighters from all over the country to experience it and see if they have any other suggestions."

"If not, then we can officially start promoting its mass production process."

"Hopefully, by the end of next year, the first batch of guns will be equipped to the troops."

Wang Haoran silently calculated that the war would take place in February 1979.

Mass production of equipment will only begin at the end of the year, which is a bit slow!

We still need to speed up the process.

We will try to start production by the middle of next year.

The current production of firearms is still far from being automated, and the production speed cannot be considered fast.

"Director Sun, are there any difficulties in mass-producing the Type 77 rifles now?"

Sun Shitong nodded and said, "There are still many difficulties. We need to organize the raw materials needed for production and rearrange the production line for bullets. In short, there is a lot of work to be done."

When it comes to bullet production, this is indeed a problem.

Don’t underestimate the small size of bullets. If they are not produced in a standard or normative manner, it will affect the overall situation.

Arranging a new bullet production line does require solving many difficulties.

As the saying goes: "Amateurs look at guns, experts look at bullets!"

The design, research and development and production of bullets are particularly important.

This 5.8mm caliber automatic rifle requires a series of 5.8mm bullets to match it.

In order to meet the needs of various battlefields, it is necessary to produce rifle bullets, machine gun bullets, general bullets, sniper bullets, special bullets, etc. Of course, in order to solve the difficulty of identification, the best solution is to produce universal bullets! One bullet is matched with all guns, which can reduce production costs and make it more convenient for front-line troops to use.

Wang Haoran actually has a set of drawings of an automated bullet production line in his mind.

However, this production line is CNC equipment.

The chip is needed, but it’s a bit ahead of its time to take it out now.

Wang Haoran thought about it again and again and decided to wait a while before taking it out.

It won’t be too late to break out after you enter university and gain more exposure to electronic engineering and computer software and hardware knowledge.

There are still many smart people in Longguo. As for the production problem of 5.8mm bullets, there will definitely be capable people who can step forward and solve it smoothly.

……

Just when Wang Haoran was working hard at the Firearms Institute to improve the Type 77 automatic rifle, a letter from the Longguo Academy of Sciences was delivered to Li Jieshi, the captain of the Li Cai Brigade.

Li Jieshi took a look at the envelope and saw that it was sent from Longguo Academy of Sciences, and the recipient was Wang Haoran.

Li Jieshi did not dare to delay and hurriedly delivered it to Xiao Lijuan personally.

"Comrade Lijuan, take a quick look at what's in the letter." Li Jieshi stretched his neck to look at the letter in Xiao Lijuan's hand, with curiosity burning in his heart.

Xiao Lijuan hesitated for a moment. The letter was to Wang Haoran, and she felt it would be inappropriate to open it without permission.

However, she guessed that there might be a congratulatory letter in the envelope?

Because she had heard Wang Haoran say before that he had been confirmed to have won the National Science and Technology Award for Progress.

"Let's wait until Haoran comes back before we tear it down." Xiao Lijuan said softly.

Li Jieshi scratched his head and said, "Logically, we should wait for Haoran to come back before dismantling it, but we don't know when he will come back. It would be bad if it delays important matters!"

"Take it apart and have a look. We also need to find a way to notify Haoran as soon as possible."

Xiao Lijuan thought so too, so she opened the letter.

Inside the letter was an invitation.

This is the invitation letter from the Longguo Academy of Sciences to Wang Haoran, inviting Wang Haoran to attend the National Science and Technology Awards Ceremony held in the National Great Hall at 10 am on October 7.

The invitation letter also said that Wang Haoran won the National Science and Technology Progress Award.

Li Jieshi laughed excitedly after hearing this: "Haha! Haoran is really amazing! He actually won a national science and technology award!"

"As the captain of the Li Cai Brigade, I am proud of it!"

"Yes! This is also the glory of our entire Licai Brigade, and even the entire Mafang Commune and Pingu County!"

"Just this one thing is enough for me to brag about for the rest of my life!"

Xiao Lijuan was a little anxious: "October 10th, there are only a few days left, we have to hurry up and inform Haoran, otherwise he might miss it."

Li Jieshi waved his hand and said, "Don't worry!"

"Haoran is working in a large unit in Beijing, doing a task assigned by the country!"

"Someone will definitely notify him! This letter may just be a formality."

Xiao Lijuan said: "What if no one else notified him?"

Li Jieshi scratched his head and said, "How about I report this to the commune and let them find a solution."

So, Li Jieshi reported to Ma Tao, the director of Mafang Commune, that Wang Haoran had won the National Science and Technology Progress Award and was invited to attend the award ceremony on October 10.

After hearing this, Ma Tao knew that this matter was of great importance. Moreover, Wang Haoran was now a member of Mafang Commune, and this honor was also the honor of the commune. So he hurried to report to the county.
