1959Siheyuan, a Turnaround

"Brothers, this mechanical competition is a great opportunity for us to shine. Look at the machines on the market now. Most of them are still stuck in the semi-automatic stage. The efficiency cannot be improved and the labor cost cannot be reduced. This is our breakthrough. If we can overcome the difficulty of fully automatic conversion, the championship will surely come easily!"

Li Weiguo gestured vigorously on the drawing with his fingers, his voice steady and full of confidence.

Zhao Shuheng scratched his head, his eyes full of curiosity and longing: "Weiguo, your idea is really great, but how do you implement it? This fully automatic sounds complicated. Nowadays, there are very few mechanical semi-automatic ones on the market. You really dare to think of it."

Su Jincheng pushed his glasses and agreed, "Yes, it's not easy, but if it's done, it will definitely amaze everyone at the mechanical design competition."

At this time, Chen Yuxuan, who had been reading in the corner, stretched and yawned and said, "Hey, why are you guys going through all this trouble? It's just a competition, is it that important? Why don't you just enjoy your college life with me!"

His roommates rolled their eyes at him. Zhang Jianguo laughed and scolded, "You are just lazy. Wait until we win the championship and see if you will regret it."

Zhao Shuheng also smiled and said, "Chen Yuxuan, we don't have your conditions, we really can't compare!"

"That's right, Chen Yuxuan, you are just talking nonsense. We came to college to change our fate, but you went to college just to go through the motions. We are different people with different fates!"

Su Jincheng finished speaking in his unique Tianjin accent, and everyone started laughing.

They were discussing the matter heatedly, but they didn't notice the constantly changing expression of Yang Qiming sitting in the corner.

In fact, Li Weiguo had already noticed that Yang Qiming was eavesdropping, and he deliberately skipped the key points without making a sound.

He knew it clearly in his heart. Over the past year or so, Yang Qiming had always been deliberately picking on him, overtly or covertly. How could he not know about it?

But now all his energy is focused on this competition, and he doesn't want to pay any attention to Yang Qiming at all.

After all, as a person who traveled from the future world, he had seen too many advanced mechanical concepts, and he didn't take Yang Qiming's little tricks seriously at all.

From that day on, the six of them would go into the laboratory whenever they had free time, repeatedly testing various parts, adjusting parameters, and discussing problems together when they encountered them. Staying up late became commonplace.

Once, when debugging a fully automatic conversion device, the machine kept jamming and we couldn't find the cause.

Everyone gathered around the machine, brows furrowed, feeling the pressure like a mountain.

Liu Fusheng was so anxious that he stamped his feet: "What should I do? The competition date is getting closer and closer, and I failed at this critical moment."

Li Weiguo took a deep breath and said calmly, "Don't worry, let's check step by step, from the circuit to the mechanical transmission, we will definitely find the problem. Fusheng, you and Shuheng check the circuit connection; Jincheng, Jianguo, the three of us will dismantle and reinstall the mechanical transmission part and carefully check the installation of each part."

Under the command of Li Weiguo, everyone divided the work and cooperated with each other. After more than ten hours of hard work, they finally discovered that the problem was caused by a tiny deviation in the sensor installation position.

When the machine started running smoothly and making a regular humming sound, everyone cheered and their fatigue instantly disappeared.

Lin Wanqing has known Li Weiguo since she entered school, and she was attracted by his unique temperament.

The two of them entered the core group of the school at the same time. Lin Wanqing often asked Li Weiguo for advice on the difficulties she encountered in the learning process. Over time, she secretly developed a feeling of admiration for him.

As a talented woman with solid basic skills in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, she also led a team to sign up for the mechanical design competition organized by the school.

She secretly made up her mind to win the competition through her own efforts, and she was also full of confidence in her team's creativity.

After class that day, Lin Wanqing took the initiative to find Li Weiguo, and said with a blush on her cheeks: "Li Weiguo, the mechanical case you analyzed in class last time was so wonderful. I thought about it for a long time after returning home and benefited a lot. By the way, you must have prepared well for this competition, right?"

Li Weiguo smiled slightly, looked at her and said, "Thank you for the compliment. Our team is indeed working hard. Also, there should be no problem on your side, right?"

Lin Wanqing smiled confidently: "Well, we are also working hard to get a good result in the competition. We will see the truth in the competition then."

As the competition date approaches, the atmosphere on campus becomes increasingly tense.

Each group is racing against time to perfect their work.

Yang Qiming followed what he overheard and assembled a mechanical model with his classmates. He was very proud of himself and boasted to his classmates from time to time: "Our design is very advanced, and we will definitely win the championship."

In order to build up momentum and to give himself some confidence, he deliberately sought out two outstanding junior students in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Zhang Wenshu and Huo Rong, to join his team.

When Huo Rong and Zhang Wenshu heard this design concept, they felt that it was indeed a good innovative design, so they joined without thinking twice.

That day, Wang Yong happened to pass by and heard the research ideas discussed by Yang Qiming's group, which were exactly the same as theirs.

He was a straightforward person, so he immediately went to Li Weiguo and told him about the matter.

"This Yang Qiming is going too far. He is clearly plagiarizing our ideas. No, I have to find him to argue with him!"

Wang Yong was very annoyed by Yang Qiming's behavior. They all lived in the same dormitory and they had never thought of guarding against him.

But Yang Qiming is not a human being and does such a thing as plagiarizing other people's ideas.

Li Weiguo, however, remained very calm. When they were talking in the dormitory that day, he was keenly aware of Yang Qiming's emotional fluctuations.

Looking at his expression, Li Weiguo knew that this man must have been holding back his fart, and now his guess has been confirmed.

Li Weiguo grabbed Wang Yong and said in a deep voice, "Wang Yong, don't be impulsive. Things are not that simple. If we go to him now to make trouble, it will only alert him and make us look impatient."

"Don't worry, I have my own plan for this matter. Besides, we only discussed the general direction in the dormitory at the beginning, and he can only study in that direction. I didn't tell him the core content, so he couldn't figure it out even if he racked his brains."

Although Wang Yong was unwilling, he could only suppress his anger since Li Weiguo said so.

Li Weiguo realized that from now on they could no longer discuss issues in the dormitory as they did before.

Their group now needs to find a quiet place, and he will use the little time left to make final improvements to his work.

At the same time, Li Weiguo also wanted to let Yang Qiming remember this lesson through this incident.

He didn't want to argue with Yang Qiming over the trivial matters in daily life, but that didn't mean Yang Qiming could continue to push his feet unscrupulously.
