Rebirth 1975: Tore up the call-back order at the beginning

When Mr. Jiang heard Zhou Yang's reminder, he fell silent for an instant.

This problem is also what they are most worried about at this time. As Zhou Yang said, production capacity and yield rate are all easy to solve.

The real trouble is the equipment and ammunition that have been produced, especially the ammunition. If the stuff is substandard, it will really kill people.

The equipment is better, guns, cannons, and even tank radars. If there is any problem, you will know if you shoot a few rounds of live ammunition. This is still very easy to verify.

But what about those ammunition?

Whether this thing has quality problems, whether it is a dud or not, you can only know if it is fired.

You can't just shoot out all these ammunition in order to verify whether the quality is up to standard!

Of course, in addition to the above-mentioned methods, there are other methods of checking whether the ammunition is qualified, but these methods are relatively backward and time-consuming.

If the quantity is not large, it is okay to test one by one, but the problem is that the current ammunition in the military's inventory is an astronomical number.

In the past ten years or so, in order to cope with wars that may occur at any time, all major military industrial units in the country have been working overtime for production.

Over the years, how much ammunition has been produced by hundreds of military industrial units across the country, even the military itself does not know.

For example, for Type 67 grenades, the inventory of the equipment department alone has reached more than 20 billion pieces, and this is not counting the distribution to the troops!

That's right, 20 million!

In the words of a certain military leader, so much ammunition is enough to fight several world wars, which shows the huge amount of our inventory!

The most important thing is that the equipment department can only count the inventory of each arsenal. As for the ammunition that has been distributed to the field troops and militia troops, there is no way to count them one by one. There are too many.

After taking a deep breath, Mr. Jiang said in a deep voice, "Why don't we know what you said, but the amount of work is too big, and we don't have the ability to conduct a comprehensive inspection of so many ammunition!"

Zhou Yang immediately said: "No matter how large the project is, it has to be done. As the terminal load to damage the target, whether the ammunition is qualified or not is really important."

"Fighting opportunities are fleeting on the battlefield, especially in tough battles. Every opportunity to attack is bought by soldiers with their lives. If the ammunition can't be fired or it doesn't explode, then it's fucked!"

Elder Jiang nodded, and then said in a deep voice, "But we lack a sufficient number of ammunition inspectors..."

"Cultivate what is lacking now!"

Then Zhou Yang said again: "If you really don't have that many manpower, then before the war starts, start small-batch inspections of ammunition, and make sure that every ammunition sent to the front line is qualified. of!"

When speaking, Zhou Yang's tone was quite solemn.

He thought of "Little Beijing" and "Liang Sanxi". The movie was limited in length, and the description of substandard ammunition was only one or two scenes, and because of political factors, it did not describe it in depth.

But it is conceivable that the director Xie Jin can use precious shots to describe this section, which is enough to show that the substandard ammunition is not an exception.

This point can be seen from the grief and helplessness of the company commander Liang Sanxi pouring out the shells after the sacrifice of Little Beijing. Obviously, it is not only a "Little Beijing" that was sacrificed because of the ammunition problem, and Zhou Yang deliberately made this matter Come up with the reason.

"You're right. Although difficulties exist objectively, you can't do nothing just because you have difficulties."

Then Mr. Jiang continued: "I will make arrangements when I go back. From now on, I will conduct a comprehensive inspection of all the ammunition in stock. Although I can't guarantee that all the ammunition sent to the front line will be qualified, I will try my best to ensure that the ammunition shipped to the front line is qualified!"

"Okay, if there is anything we need to contribute to our research, just give an order!" Zhou Yang said.

Mr. Jiang smiled and said: "You have done enough and well enough. I will watch them correct the problems of other units. You can continue to maintain this momentum!"

"Yes!"

At this time, Mr. Jiang said again: "By the way, the Military Agency of Saibei Province submitted a fund allocation application to the Military Commission two days ago, requesting that it settle the equipment purchase funds of your unit as soon as possible. Do you know about this?"

Zhou Yang was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head and said: "I really don't know the specific situation, but I did talk to Comrade Yun Changjie some time ago, and I hope he will ask the military to settle the purchase fee owed as soon as possible, otherwise Our research institute really can’t open the pot..."

"As for it, I know that your unit made a lot of money last year. It is a real landlord's old fortune. How can you have no money?" Jiang Lao said.

"Chief, we did have a lot of surplus last year, but we also spent a lot. This year, we have jointly launched several projects with Qingcheng and Xigong University, but we spent a lot of money, and the landlord's family has no surplus!"

Then Zhou Yang continued: "If it's only our unit, it's nothing. Just tighten your belt and endure it, and it's over. It's not like we haven't had a hard time."

"But you also know that no matter whether it is gun sight radar or airborne radar, we can't produce it alone. There are more than a hundred brothers who supply parts and components to our research institute. This year, big guys Life is hard, and now I'm waiting to use the money..."

Jiang Lao was silent for a while, and then directly interrupted Zhou Yang: "Don't cry poor with me, you boy, it's useless to cry poor, and now the ministry has no money."

"The 5790 million purchase fees owed to you here, the military really can't afford it at once. This is the truth. So after discussion, the Ministry decided to allocate half of it to you first, and settle the rest at the end of the year. However, you The production speed cannot be reduced!"

Zhou Yang smiled wryly and said, "I understand what you mean, that is, if you want money, can't you leave the job?"

"Isn't this allotted half for you, just make do with it, and the rest will definitely be settled by the end of the year!" Jiang Lao said.

"This half is probably not enough for the supply funds of the brothers' units. I can tell that you are here to inspect. This is obviously because you are afraid that we will pick up the pick and come to beat us!"

"What do you mean beating... Hey... let's just beat it. The Ministry is really in trouble now. In order to deal with those white-eyed wolves, the entire Military Commission wants to split every penny into two halves!"

To be honest, Mr. Jiang himself felt that this matter was a little unjustifiable.

Compared with other military scientific research units, the Babaoliang Research Institute is already very worry-free. It doesn't cause trouble, and it doesn't usually go to the Ministry to ask for funds.

Unlike the leaders of other units, they would go to the capital every now and then to cry and beg for money, and would not leave if they did not give. Some leaders even stopped going back to the unit and simply lived in the capital.

The most important thing is that the annual funding of the Babaoliang Research Institute is really not much. Most of the projects are funded by them themselves. If they don't really have no money, he would like to allocate more money to them.

Now not only are there not many research funds, but even their purchase funds cannot be settled in one go, and they have to owe them, which makes Mr. Jiang feel very uncomfortable...

Zhou Yang could also see that Mr. Jiang was indeed in a dilemma. Thinking of the domestic economic situation in the past few years, he also remained silent.

"or..."

"or..."

The two spoke almost at the same time, but stopped at the same time.

"You kid, talk first!"

Zhou Yang nodded, and then said: "Let's take half and half. I'll settle the money from my brother's unit first. Let's find a way to solve the funding gap in our unit. But you have to do us a favor!"

"You really know how to pick the right time to speak up, tell me, what's the matter, as long as it's not too much, I'll accept it!" Old Jiang said.

"You always help us get a batch of printing equipment over here, at least 8 four-color offset printing machines, as well as binding machines!" Zhou Yang said.

"I need printing equipment again. Didn't I just adjust three printing machines for you, isn't it enough?" Mr. Jiang asked with a look of surprise.

"Original enough, but the Ministry only pays half of the purchase fee, which is not enough!"

Then Zhou Yang explained: "You must know that our research institute now has thousands of people, and we need money for eating, drinking, and messing around. If the department has no money, it can only rely on itself, and now our only income depends on this printing factory. , let’s increase production capacity and make more money!”

Jiang Lao nodded and said: "It's hard for you, I'll go back and discuss with other comrades in the ministry, and see where I can get you a whole batch of printing equipment!"

"Then trouble you getting old!"

Mr. Jiang shook his head and said: "It's not troublesome, I just feel a little sorry for you, but don't worry, I won't let you suffer!"

"understand!"

At this moment, Mr. Jiang suddenly looked at Zhou Yang and said, "By the way, I want to ask for your opinion on something..."

Hearing Mr. Jiang's polite tone, Zhou Yang felt flustered for no reason, and an ominous premonition welled up in his heart...

ps: I was so tired yesterday, I almost couldn't get up, I'm really sorry.
