Siheyuan: Craftsmen of a Great Country

Friday, the 27th, next to the experimental steelmaking furnace.

Lu Yuehua looked at the furnace where steel was being made: "Director Jiang, I feel that our ratio has reached the limit, and we should be able to submit it to the Ministry of Industry."

Jiang Chen looked at Su Changming who was leading people to build a converter not far away, and nodded casually: "Well, I think it's about the same. If the data for this furnace steel does not exceed that ratio, we will submit it according to that ratio. ."

For half a month, the test furnace has been almost non-stop and has been verifying the ratio of tungsten-chromium alloy steel.

Yesterday, they refined alloy steel with the highest data. The proportions of the subsequent batches of experiments were adjusted based on it, but the quality was not as good as that batch.

This is basically certain that this ratio is the best ratio.

Of course, Jiang Chen knew in his heart that this ratio was not actually the best, and there was still a very slight gap between it and the real optimal ratio provided by the system.

But this gap is very small, and can be said to be negligible from the perspective of alloy steel.

You can submit this ratio according to the optimal ratio.

Lu Yuehua looked happy: "So, has our first alloy steel been successfully developed?"

He has been waiting for this day for half a month.

He hopes that his own ratio can be perfect, but he is also afraid of being overtaken by Chen Tongshan, who is also developing this kind of alloy steel.

Now that Jiang Chen has affirmed it, it is basically announced that the development of this alloy steel has been successful, but there is still no movement from Chen Tongshan.

It can be said that in this time race, they won.

Jiang Chen nodded: "Yes, it was successful, and it has a very wide range of uses and is used in many fields."

"For example, the cutting tools of Sangang's machine tools, such as the furnace body of the upcoming blast furnace steelmaking experiment."

In fact, Jiang Chen was very happy when he first learned that it was tungsten and chromium.

Doesn't this just fit in seamlessly with his plan? It's a matter of course.

No one can tell the difference.

Lu Yuehua rubbed his hands excitedly: "It's great, it's really great. I've waited for a long time and finally waited for today."

Then there was some reluctance: "Then this alloy steel has been successfully developed, what should we do?"

After the research here was over, he thought he would return to Qingbei and continue his idle life.

For him who wants to do things, it is a bit difficult to accept.

Jiang Chen said: "The development of the converter steelmaking method over there still needs Teacher Lu's full support."

Lu Yuehua curled her lips: "We mainly rely on Su Gong and the others there. I am just a soy sauce person, and the help I can provide is limited."

Jiang Chen probed: "Qingbei didn't ask you to go back? If you can stay here for a long time, I still have a lot of research to do."

Lu Yuehua said: "I am good at research but not good at teaching. I am a transparent person in Qingbei. No one cares about me."

Jiang Chen shook his head: "Maybe no one cared about you before, but once the results of this alloy steel are announced, you will become a star in northern Qing Dynasty, and you will no longer be able to be transparent."

Lu Yuehua gritted his teeth and said, "I'm going to apply for a job transfer now and come to the laboratory to help you."

Jiang Chen was happy in his heart, but he didn't show it on the surface: "You have to think about it. When you come to No.3 Steel Plant, you won't have free days. There are endless research topics and endless experiments. You may be tired every day. Gotta act like a dog.”

"Some confidential projects limit contact with outsiders during the research period, and you don't even have the opportunity to have a family."

Lu Yuehua smiled and said: "That is the life I really want. I said last time that my work will be wherever my stage is."

"Now it seems that at least I have something to do here, and I can use my expertise and show my value! If Director Jiang doesn't mind it, I'm willing to be a pawn."

After the last communication, Lu Yuehua had already planned the future.

As long as there were still subjects and projects here, he would simply transfer his position here. If the school didn't agree, then let Jiang Chen have his say and follow the path of the Ministry of Industry.

Now that the Ministry of Industry has enough power, even Qingbei has to give it some face.

Jiang Chen said: "Okay, you don't have to guard the last furnace of steel this afternoon, just go back and go through the process."

"Come on, it's best to settle things today and tomorrow. Otherwise, when word spreads about the alloy steel next week, it won't be so easy for you to leave."

An ordinary employee will just leave when he leaves.

But Qingbei is absolutely reluctant to let go of a talented person who has made great achievements. After all, even if such a person is left there and does nothing, he still has influence and heritage.

Lu Yuehua immediately clapped his hands: "Okay, I will go through the process this afternoon. If it really doesn't work, please ask Director Jiang to communicate with the superiors and ask the factory or the Ministry of Industry to come forward."

Jiang Chen nodded: "Well, you go ahead."

Lu Yuehua said: "Last question, if I am really transferred to No.3 Steel Plant, where will my main attack direction be in the future?"

Jiang Chen said: "The development of alloy steel depends on various formulas and ratios. There are tens of thousands of types of alloy steel. We need to conduct research to find out the alloy steel for various special purposes that we can independently produce in large quantities. "

"Of course, we cannot be blind and make random combinations. We must first conduct a thorough investigation of the country's steel production to find high-quality steel products produced under accidental conditions such as tungsten-chromium alloy steel, conduct testing and research, and initially determine the formula. "

"Then we experiment with tungsten-chromium alloys and eventually develop alloy steel."

Lu Yuehua said: "What if we can't find these special steels produced under unexpected circumstances?"

Jiang Chen said: "Then find a way to steal and rob, study the special steel developed abroad, and then calculate the ratio through experiments."

"If it still doesn't work, we can only use this method to make steel by adding various elements, mastering the impact of each element on the steel, and then matching the elements as needed to get a preliminary formula. Then we can get the ratio through experiments. Finally, we will master more methods of developing alloy steel.”

Lu Yuehua's eyes lit up: "I think this last method is very feasible."

"We only need to understand the effect of each element on steel, find out the optimal ratio of individual elements, and then match them."

Jiang Chen smiled and said: "Although there are not many elements, there are many different combinations. It is best to have ready-made references, but it is actually feasible without this method."

Lu Yuehua said: "No more talk, no more talk, I'm going to apply for a job transfer. Just these things, I feel like I can do it for the rest of my life."

After saying that, Jiang Chen turned around and left without waiting for a reply.

Jiang Chen smiled and shook his head, this Lu Yuehua is really hot-tempered.
