Siheyuan: My Golden Finger is updated weekly

Director Yang had his meal in the workshop.

Looking at the machines that kept malfunctioning, many factory leaders were filled with worry.

"Chief Li, you're here."

Seeing Li Meng coming over, Director Yang pointed at the lathe and said with a wry smile: "These useless things are broken again."

"Well, I heard the workers talking, so I took a bite of my meal and came over quickly."

After Li Meng carefully checked it last time, he sighed and said, "It's broken like this, so it's not a big deal to repair it..."

"Yes." Director Yang said worriedly, "It has a huge impact on production efficiency. Our factory engineers want to set up a research and development team to see if we can refurbish all the machines."

Director Yang handed over a stack of industrial drawings and said, "Chief Li, take a look. What do you think?"

Li Meng took a quick glance and pointed out several problems.

Finally, he said: "Refurbishment, to put it bluntly, is still an improvement on the original basis, but this kind of change is not very meaningful and is costly and laborious."

On the left, Zhao Jianhua, the ninth-level engineer at the steel rolling mill, looked gloomy.

It's not because I'm angry, but because I'm frustrated.

He has been in contact with Li Meng for a long time and knows that Li Meng is very capable. He is not only good at repairing machines, but also has a more thorough understanding of many professional issues than he, a level nine engineer.

Li Meng directly rejected it, so this matter would most likely not be accomplished.

"Chief Li, does that mean you have other ideas in mind?" asked Director Yang.

"Yes." Li Meng nodded: "The research and development team still needs to be established. I will take the lead. I have also been thinking about developing a new lathe these days. Here are the drawings. Director Yang, Engineer Zhao, take a look."

Li Meng put his hands into his arms, reached into his personal space and took out a stack of drawings, and even clenched them with his hands.

He had indeed prepared this a long time ago.

He had previously acquired a mastery of mechanical engineering, so making a lathe was a piece of cake for him.

But it can be done based on the existing conditions.

Director Yang looked at the drawings with Zhao Jianhua.

Zhao Jianhua was shocked and asked, "Chief Li, are you going to make it semi-automatic?"

"Yeah." Li Meng nodded.

He didn't come up with anything earth-shattering right away.

According to historical progress, his vertical six-axis semi-automatic lathe will be developed in Northeast China in two or three years.

Therefore, although Li Meng's drawings look amazing, they are not exaggerated, and there is no so-called "dimensionality reduction attack".

Li Meng has the system, and while he enjoys it himself, he also wants to do his part for the motherland.

But for things like this, we have to take it slow. We can’t just throw out 21st century or more advanced things right away. That would be unwise.

"This is incredible!" Director Yang took a deep breath, looked at Li Meng and said, "Chief Li, I have to hold a meeting with the factory leaders on this matter. The research and development team can only be established after the meeting passes. I believe no one will object. Chief Li, you can select some team members now."

After Director Yang finished speaking, he took the drawings and quickly left for a meeting.

......

At the factory leadership meeting, the drawings were passed around and everyone thought the idea was feasible.

Most people agree.

But there are still voices of opposition.

"Director Yang, Section Chief Li is very capable. He has been working in the workshop for less than a year and has taught himself to be better than a ninth-level engineer. Now he is even more amazing. He wants to develop a semi-automatic lathe. The blueprint he drew is also very realistic, and it will probably be good, but..."

"But, Director Yang, once semi-automation is implemented, our steel mill will not be able to retain talents like Chief Li. They will most likely be snatched away by Shougang..."

It is said that a small temple cannot accommodate a large Buddha, and this is true.

Once this lathe is developed, the Red Star Third Steel Rolling Mill will definitely not be able to keep Li Meng.

He has achieved such success in less than a year of self-study. What is this? This is talent.

Such talents will never be employed by a steel mill.

It will be snapped up by all major manufacturers, and it will be unstoppable.

Li Huaide glanced at the person who spoke.

That man is also a deputy factory director.

"Oh, you think about our factory, but you forget to think about the country!" Li Huaide scolded loudly: "Section Chief Li's research and development can be promoted nationwide, allowing our country's production technology level to reach a new level! At this time, you are still only thinking about the honor and loss of a mere factory. Where do you put the country? Where do you put the interests of the people? Do you still have the country and the people in your eyes?!"

Li Huaide's words were powerful and thought-provoking.

He didn't think about the country or the people.

He knew that when someone tried to block his brother Li Meng's path to progress, he had to stand up and speak out.

The higher and further Li Meng goes, the greater the benefits to him.

"This... Deputy Director Li, I didn't mean that! Don't misinterpret it!"

The deputy factory manager who had just spoken was sweating profusely.

First of all, Li Huaide is a powerful figure and he really can't afford to offend him.

Secondly, the hat that Li Huaide put on him was too big and he didn't dare to accept it.

"I...I also agree with Chief Li to set up a research and development team to carry out research and development..."

Once Li Huaide put the big hat on his head, anyone who opposed it would have no regard for the country and the people, so it was quickly passed unanimously.

......

News travels fast these days.

Soon, many workers knew that the factory might set up a research and development team, led by Li Meng, to research and develop a new lathe, a semi-automated one!

As long as you can join this group, it is an honor and will be a credit in the future!

So Li Meng's office was packed.

Those standing were all the master chefs in the factory.

There are fitters like Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong.

There are even some welders and others who say they want to do their bit for the factory.

The research and development of the new lathe cannot be accomplished by Li Meng alone.

If we want the product to be released as quickly as possible, we certainly cannot do without the help and contribution of these experts.

But new problems arise.

Who to use and who not to use?

The research and development team needs people, but not so many people. Wouldn’t those who are not selected bear a grudge against Li Meng?

Although Li Meng didn't care and was not afraid, he didn't want to cause himself unnecessary trouble.

He simply raised his chin towards Liu Haizhong and said, "Hey? Isn't this the second uncle in the hospital? You are here too? That's all right. You are a veteran in our factory, highly respected and capable. I still have to go find Director Yang. The important task of selecting members for the research and development team is now handed over to you. I am at ease with you doing the job."

Li Meng left after he finished speaking.

Xi almost jumped up in bangs!

Especially when Li Meng called him "Second Uncle", he was very happy. Li Meng had been in the courtyard for so long, but he had never called him "Second Uncle" once.

This was the only time that he was used as a gun, a vent for everyone's anger, but this idiot himself didn't realize the problem at all.

"Ahem, well." Liu Haizhong put his hands behind his back and glanced at everyone: "Since Section Chief Li has entrusted me with this important task, I must do my best to do it well."

After looking at Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong said, "Old Yi, you should go back first. You must work overtime to develop a new machine tool. It takes a lot of effort. Your wife is always sick and takes medicine every day. Isn't she in poor health? You should take care of your wife when you have time."

Yi Zhonghai:? ? ?
