Siheyuan: Craftsmen of a Great Country

Gao Tianliang sighed for no reason, but Jiang Chen became alert.

Is the industrial system changing?

He was thinking about why Gao Tianliang was so emotional.

After thinking for a moment, he suddenly realized that it was time for the Great Streamlining to begin.

Previously, the satellites were placed too high, causing the illusion that we could not finish all the food.

As a result, a large number of farmers supported the construction, and tens of millions of people entered the factory from the fields.

But after the old man chatted with Zhang Cui and Zhang Huajun in the experimental field, he launched an investigation when he returned. The results were surprising.

So, the punishment deserves the punishment.

However, the problem of rural labor shortage always needs to be solved.

As a result, the decision to streamline was finally made.

Reduce the number of factory workers and reduce the urban population.

Let more people return to the land and keep food on the table.

Food is the most important thing for the people, and food is the foundation.

I think the Steel City Steelmaking Plant received the news in advance, so they anxiously approached Jiang Chen for the alloy steel project.

This circle is so big and everyone is well-informed, so it’s not surprising to know something in advance.

They know that only if the factory's output value keeps up can the current scale be preserved to the maximum extent.

For example, Sangang Group is now operating at basically full capacity.

Therefore, there will be basically no downsizing.

The most that can be done is to allow newly hired rural employees to return to the countryside, and then replenish personnel from other channels.

But steel mills are different.

Jiang Chen developed the converter steelmaking, which greatly improved the efficiency of steelmaking and greatly reduced the need for personnel.

So once downsizing begins, steel plants will definitely be a priority target.

Especially for some steel plants with backward production capacity, direct mergers or even closures are possible.

For example, the Steel City Steel Plant has three converters.

According to the above plan, the production capacity of the three converters can basically complete the planned output.

Then the personnel may be matched according to the operation needs of the three converters.

According to the current situation, the number of employees may be reduced by half.

What should we do if we want to maintain the existing scale as much as possible?

That is to participate in more projects, such as Jiang Chen's alloy steel.

Then, through the improvement of its own value, it can retain as many backbones as possible.

Jiang Chen guessed these things, but he didn't say anything.

After all, these things have not been made public yet and are not suitable for discussion in public.

At ten past ten, steelmaking officially begins.

Shangguan Wan'er is also back.

Her position is next to Jiang Chen.

She glanced left and right and found that no one was paying attention to her, so she quietly moved the stool towards Jiang Chen.

Although there is still a certain distance in the middle, it is at least a little closer.

Jiang Chen smiled slightly, stood up slightly, and moved the stool to be close to Shangguan Wan'er's stool.

He said loudly: "Wan'er, the maintenance of this converter should not only include the converter, but also the maintenance of the supporting facilities of the converter."

Then he looked around apologetically: "I'm sorry for disturbing everyone's observation. Let's keep our voices down."

Gao Tianliang smiled: "It seems that Director Jiang has discovered the problem. It's okay. You can discuss yourselves."

"Steelmaking is done by looking, not by listening."

Jiang Chen said: "It's not that I discovered a problem, I just suddenly thought of something."

Then he came close to Wan'er and whispered: "Be generous in whatever you want to do. Being seen secretly will arouse suspicion."

Feeling Jiang Chen's hot breath coming from her ears, Shangguan Wan'er's face turned slightly red: "I'm not as thick-skinned as you."

Jiang Chen whispered: "What kind of seafood do you like to eat?"

Shangguan Wan'er said: "I don't know either, I haven't done any research on this."

Jiang Chen looked at Shangguan Wan'er's cute look and couldn't help but joke: "How about I let you eat my baby tonight to reduce your stress?"

Shangguan Wan'er's face turned even redder: "You are a gangster."

The body is very honest, a little weak.

Although Shangguan Wan'er ended up with Jiang Chen, she was indeed the most open-minded among the girls.

That's why Jiang Chen dared to secretly joke with her here.

The result was no surprise, and the first batch of steel at the Gangdu Steelmaking Plant was successfully refined.

Of course, there are many flaws in the process, at least much more than when Shi Jingshan was making steel.

At this moment, Su Changming had called the people involved in steelmaking aside and started training them.

Shangguan Wan'er also stepped forward to observe the wear and tear of the converter.

Gao Tianliang took a look from a distance and sighed: "It seems that our comrade made a mistake."

Jiang Chen said: "These are all small problems. There were too many people in the previous training. Everyone watched too much and had few opportunities to do it, so their proficiency was not enough."

"When you are actually facing actual combat, you will inevitably feel nervous. But these are all trivial matters. If you refine it a few more times, you will be fine as your proficiency increases."

"Practice is the only criterion for testing truth, and it is the best way to improve your level. But let them pay attention and strictly follow the operation manual."

Wu Ren said: "Don't worry, Director Jiang. We have discussed it before. The security department will send a literate person to come out and supervise their operations with the operation manual."

This method works.

But the disadvantages are just as big.

After all, the process of steelmaking is not static.

Faced with some unexpected things, you need to be adaptable.

This is also the reason why each factory initially selected experienced steelmaking workers to participate in the training.

Although the security department allows them to operate according to the manual, it often becomes a limitation when emergencies are needed.

Unless the worker in the security department is particularly capable and can make reasonable judgments based on the actual situation.

After the steelmaking was over, a dinner party was arranged for noon.

Everyone who comes to observe the ceremony will have a meal together.

The food was rich, but there was no alcohol.

Because many people have to go to work in the afternoon.

And the steelmaking process requires staying awake, so the habit of drinking at noon cannot be carried away.

After dinner, Jiang Chen and Shangguan Wan'er went to Gao Tianliang and Wu Ren to say goodbye.

Both of them wanted to stay with them for another day, but they had no choice but to give up after hearing that they had already made arrangements.

Jiang Chen refused the factory's help in buying train tickets for them, saying bluntly that they were going to Bincheng.

Watching the two people leaving, Gao Tianliang said: "There is no steelmaking plant in Bincheng. What are they doing there?"

Wu Ren smiled: "Brother, have you forgotten that these two are actually engineers, engineers of the steel rolling mill, and steelmaking is not their full-time job."

Only then did Gao Tianliang react: "Look at my brain, their contribution to steelmaking has been so great that I have even forgotten about it."

"Although there are no steel mills in Bincheng, there are still quite a few machinery factories. I wonder what Director Jiang has planned."
