Siheyuan Back to the 1950s

The next morning, the newly modified machine tool was still in use, and the factory was preparing to test it to see what was different from before.

Sun Zhengguo ignored this test and continued to modify the next machine tool as if he was an outsider.

By noon, the test results of the new machine tool had come out. Compared with before, the output increased by 30% and the yield rate increased by 35%, which amazed several cadres present.

Some people may ask, why are machine tools transformed so quickly, but rolling mills so slow?

There are several reasons for this.

First, Sun Zhengguo had been working with machine tools for his entire life and was very familiar with them, which could be said to be his strong point.

Second, compared with machine tools, rolling mills are much more complicated, and not just a little bit.

Third, rather than saying that he modified the machine tool, it would be more accurate to say that Sun Zhengguo directly moved out the knowledge in his mind. These are all proven data, so there will be no mistakes.

To sum up, this is why the transformation was so fast this time.

During the afternoon working hours, Director Li couldn't wait to call Deputy Minister Li.

"Hello! Deputy Minister Li, I'm Li Zheng, I have something to report to you."

"Oh! It's Li Zheng. What's going on?"

"Deputy Minister Li, Engineer Sun sent by the Ministry is amazing. He transformed a machine tool in just one day, and increased the efficiency and yield rate by more than 30%."

"What? Li Zheng, you're not kidding, are you sure you didn't say anything wrong?"

Director Li was not surprised at all when he heard Vice Minister Li's questioning voice, as he had felt the same way at the beginning. But the facts were eloquent and could not be denied.

"Deputy Minister Li, I guarantee with my party spirit that what I just said is absolutely true."

"Okay! I'll go over and take a look this afternoon. Don't hold any welcoming ceremonies to avoid disrupting their renovation work."

"okay, I get it."

After hanging up the phone, Director Li was still excited, but thinking that the leader was coming, he still had to make some small preparations so as not to alarm Sun Zhengguo and others.

An hour later, Sun Zhengguo was still working and explaining the technology to the technicians next to him so that they could master it as quickly as possible.

What Sun Zhengguo didn't know was that a group of cadres including Deputy Minister Li had already come to them, but everyone was so busy studying that no one noticed.

"Does anyone know why this gear needs to be replaced?"

Faced with Sun Zhengguo's question, no one could answer.

"Mr. Sun, please tell me about it! We don't seem to have learned these things in our textbooks before?"

one of the technicians asked.

Ever since Sun Zhengguo became a level 9 engineer, everyone prefers to call him Engineer Sun rather than Section Chief Sun. This is a recognition of his ability by the technical staff.

"This is not difficult, because this gear affects the operation of the entire machine. If you calculate the parameters, you should understand that if the diameter of this gear is 2 cm smaller, it will be more perfect."

"Mr. Sun, I still don't understand. If this one can only be made 2cm smaller, what if the other gears can't bite?"

"Of course, we need to add a few more gears at the back. Look at the improved drawings again and see if the industrial parameters are optimal. If not, why should we modify the machine?"

The group of technicians probably didn't understand what Sun Zhengguo said.

But these are not important. What is important is that Sun Zhengguo wants to use this as a purpose to instill some theories in them, and they don't have to recite anything by rote.

Just as a great man later said, no matter whether the cat is black or white, as long as it can catch mice, it is a good cat.

"Okay! Pah pah pah!"

"Papa..."

As Vice Minister Li cheered and applauded, everyone also followed suit and applauded enthusiastically.

When the applause stopped, Sun Zhengguo also stopped what he was doing.

"Deputy Minister Li, why didn't you tell me you were coming to inspect? I could have gone to greet you in advance!"

"Haha! Comrade Zhengguo, you are now the treasure of our mechanical department. I dare not disturb you while you are working."

"Hahaha……!

Vice Minister Li's joke caused laughter at the scene.

"How is it? Was the transformation of this machine going smoothly?" Deputy Minister Li asked.

"The machine is basically finished. If it weren't for explaining it to them, I would just install these gears."

After listening to Sun Zhengguo's words, Deputy Minister Li also became interested.

"Oh! Really? Okay then, you guys install it now and we'll wait here. I'll also take a look at the scene today to see what other surprises you, Sun Zhengguo, can bring us."

The cadres at the scene were all envious. Sun Zhengguo was really lucky. Even the ministerial leaders were willing to wait for him.

Sun Zhengguo did not disappoint Vice Minister Li and he personally took care of it and completed the final installation in no time. His skillful movements stunned the people present.

You know, not all engineers have hands-on skills, and people like Sun Zhengguo are rare.

After installing the machine, Sun Zhengguo started it immediately. The machine worked great without any malfunctions and started perfectly.

"Director Li, call someone!" Sun Zhengguo said without even turning around.

"No need, Chief Sun, the people are already here."

Sun Zhengguo then turned around and saw that it was the same Level 6 worker from last time.

"Master, I am going to trouble you again."

"It's no trouble, it's no trouble. It's my honor to be the first to use the machine tool modified by Mr. Sun."

The worker said proudly.

After saying that, he began to operate the machine. This newly modified machine was still as smooth and silky as yesterday, making him feel like he was being assisted by God.

"Comrade Zhengguo, is there any difference between this machine and yesterday's?"

Seeing the workers processing parts, Vice Minister Li didn't understand, so he asked Sun Zhengguo.

"Deputy Minister Li, there is not much difference between the two machines. It's just that the processing diameter of this machine is larger, and the processing range is also larger. It's like it used to be able to process an egg, but now it can process an apple."

Sun Zhengguo's explanation was simple and easy to understand. After listening to it, Deputy Minister Li nodded.

"There is still a universal milling machine that has not been modified. What functions does it have?" Deputy Minister Li asked.

"The universal milling machine is mainly reflected in the word universal. In fact, it is also an extension of ordinary machine tools. It has many more functions and can process with one button, saving a lot of manpower and material resources. However, it is also relatively complicated."

While the two were asking and answering questions, the worker also completed the parts and, after measurement, found that they fully met the standards.

"Dear leaders, the new machine performs very well, and is no worse than the one we had yesterday. The parts are processed perfectly."

"Bah bang bang...!"

After hearing the report, there was warm applause at the scene.

"Great! Comrade Sun Zhengguo, congratulations. I will commend you for your achievements when you complete this mission."

"Thank you, Vice Minister Li."

After looking at the machine, Vice Minister Li gave a few more words of encouragement before leaving in a hurry, but he returned in a very happy mood.

On the way back, Vice Minister Li was still considering whether to add more burden to Sun Zhengguo.

After all, Sun Zhengguo has already proven his ability. If he is used well, he will be a treasure for the country now.
