Siheyuan Great Craftsmen

As for Nie Guodong, he was also speechless. Looking at Zhou Tian, ​​a trace of relaxation appeared on his face. But after relaxing, he remembered that he was indeed a little confused by Master Zhou's words.

Otherwise, how could he not have thought that the part of Master Zhou's file that recorded his academic qualifications clearly stated that he only had a high school diploma, and as far as he knew, this was something Master Zhou had obtained recently after passing the night school exam.

Now that he has regained consciousness, he still has doubts about whether Master Zhou Tian can complete the transformation of the lathe and boring machine.

However, compared to the initial rumors, he could still accept this result.

Hearing what Deputy Factory Director Yang said, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Yes, Master Zhou, you don't know that what you just said really shocked me. I thought you really wanted to complete the overall machine tool transformation that everyone dreams of completing?"

Zhou Tian was immediately teased by Deputy Director Yang and Nie Guodong, so he couldn't help but touch his head and said with a silly smile: "I just expressed it wrongly. I'm sorry to have made Deputy Director Yang and Technician Nie laugh at me!"

"No! No! No! How can it be embarrassing? Although we misunderstood just now, in the end, Master Zhou's suggestion has helped us a lot! After all, we have never thought about machine tool modification. In this regard, Master Zhou has seen further than us!"

Deputy Director Yang said this and looked at Zhou Tian with admiration. What he said was indeed what was in his heart. He had been in the steel mill for almost a month, but in this month, he had only just sorted out the logistics.

Originally, he had no intention of intervening in the production, but who would have thought that, perhaps because Deputy Director Yang had been making some big moves during this period, or perhaps Lou Jiancheng had really seen the situation clearly and planned to retreat while the tide was rising, Lou Jiancheng had not appeared in the factory at all during this period.

This forced him to start managing the entire factory. Originally, he had not planned to achieve results in such a short period of time, but Zhou Tian's words today suggested that he might be able to achieve results in such a short period of time.

If Master Zhou can really complete the modification of the lathe and boring machine, no, even just one, then it will be a huge help to him.

Nie Guodong, who was standing by, couldn't help but nodded in agreement when he heard what Deputy Director Yang said. Originally, he should have raised this kind of technical issue, but when he was in the Northeast, he had seen too many examples of failure, so when he came to this unfamiliar place, the steel rolling mill, he didn't think about this problem at first.

But now that Master Zhou has brought it up, if he can take the lead in solving this problem, maybe after the formal public-private partnership, he might be able to go a step further and become the first engineer of the steel rolling mill.

Since they had already made up their minds, there was no need for them to delay any longer. Nie Guodong and Deputy Director Yang looked at each other and nodded in tacit understanding.

"Well, Master Zhou, since you are sure you can complete it, then from today on, you don't have to do anything else. You can use the scrapped machine tools in the abandoned workshop. As for what parts you need, you can find your workshop director. If it really doesn't work, you can find me and I will help you find a solution. What do you think?"

Deputy Director Yang said to Zhou Tian.

"Thank you, Deputy Director Yang. I will do my best to live up to Deputy Director Yang's expectations of me!"

When Zhou Tian heard Deputy Director Yang say this, he immediately felt grateful.

"Well, Old Nie, you should worry more about Master Zhou's affairs. Tell me anytime if there is anything!"

After hearing Zhou Tian's assurance, Deputy Director Yang nodded, then looked at Nie Guodong and said.

After all, he has not yet completely grasped the affairs of the factory. Now that Lou Jiancheng has recognized the situation, he naturally needs to take control of all the affairs of the factory as soon as possible. This is his most important task at the moment.

As for technical matters, he still felt it would be better to leave it to Nie Guodong.

"Don't worry, Deputy Director Yang, I will definitely cooperate with Master Zhou!"

Nie Guodong nodded. He naturally understood what Deputy Director Yang meant. He was asked to support Master Zhou. In fact, he would have done it even if Deputy Director Yang hadn't said it.

After all, as long as Master Zhou really completed the transformation of the lathe and boring machine, his superiors would not ignore his contribution even if he didn't say it.

What's more, Master Zhou is highly valued by the old leader. He would never let anything go wrong with Master Zhou, and he also plans to give Zhou Tian more guidance when the time comes.

After all, he has a heart that appreciates such a rare talent.

After the discussion, Nie Guodong and Zhou Tian left Deputy Director Yang's office and walked towards the scrapping workshop together. As they walked, Nie Guodong and Zhou Tian also discussed how to better transform the lathes and boring machines.

As they talked, Nie Guodong gradually realized that he seemed to have underestimated Master Zhou's foundation in these two areas, perhaps because Master Zhou had the most opportunities to work with lathes and boring machines.

When talking about the transformation of these two machine tools, Zhou Tian seemed to be very confident. After talking about it for a while, he even benefited a lot from it.

"Master Zhou, I didn't know until we talked. I thought you were bragging when you said you were 80% sure about rebuilding lathes and boring machines. But I didn't expect that your knowledge of lathes and boring machines is indeed better than mine. This really makes me ashamed!"

Nie Guodong couldn't help but say with some admiration.

As a technician from Northeast China, he considered himself to be not weak in the field of mechanics. However, through the conversation with Zhou Tian just now, he clearly felt the gap between himself and Zhou Tian in the field of machine tools.

It can be said that with the plan Zhou Tian just mentioned, even if it were an engineer, he probably wouldn’t be able to think of it. Yes, he just couldn’t think of it. This is not just a problem of knowledge, but a different kind of thinking.

This mode of thinking can be said to bring great thinking value in any field.

"Thank you for the compliment, Technician Nie. I just have no other options, so I'm just daydreaming. If there is a way, I would rather research new machine tools than modify them!"

Zhou Tian said politely that he was not wrong in saying this. In fact, transformation was not a good thing for the mechanical field. Innovation was the greatest progress in industrial development.

If he had enough knowledge, why would he choose to modify it? After all, even if it was modified, the performance of the machine tool would only be improved slightly, but not much.

After all, the upper limit of these machine tools has been determined, and there is not much room for improvement. At most, it is only one or two times.

After hearing Zhou Tian's words, Nie Guodong couldn't help but nodded in agreement. Obviously, he also agreed with Zhou Tian's idea.

The abandoned workshop is located on the far right side of Workshop No. 3. The entire workshop looks very old from the outside. The door of the workshop is not locked but tied with wire.

The two men came to the abandoned workshop. Zhou Tian walked forward and unscreaked the wire. Accompanied by the creaking sound of the dilapidated door, the entire abandoned workshop suddenly came into their sight.

There were a lot of old machine tools piled up in the workshop, including one that was scrapped this morning and was also placed aside. The workshop was filled with dust, and it was obvious that no one had cleaned it for a long time.

"Master Zhou, when do you plan to officially transform the lathe and boring machine?"

After taking a quick glance at the abandoned workshop, Nie Guodong asked with no expression on his face.

"Tomorrow!"
