Rebirth of science and technology to rejuvenate the country

When his grandfather passed away, Yuan Xia was overly sad, many things were arranged by Yu Xing and his team, and they forgot to notify Si Haibo.

Later, when Si Haibo heard the news of his grandfather's death, he was very angry, saying that he didn't consider himself a friend, that he didn't tell him such an important thing as his grandfather's death, and just looked down on him.

Yuan Xia apologized several times, but Si Haibo always moaned and said that he would not forgive him.

Yuan Xia didn't dare to hide anything about Yuan Dong's marriage this time, so he notified him immediately, so Si Haibo brought his whole family from Wenzhou to Yuecheng to attend the wedding.

The bride and groom are talented and beautiful, a pair of lovers.The guests at the wedding were all smiling and praised the couple for their good match.

The only one who was lost was probably Hu Meilian. The excitement belonged to everyone present, except her.

Guo Zhiqiang has already retired. He is lucky. Although the factory's efficiency is not good, he survived until retirement smoothly.

However, their daughter Guo Aiyun has not yet graduated from junior high school, so they have to support this daughter to go to school, and their life is tight.

Guo Zhiqiang was complained by his own children, saying that if he didn't marry anymore, he would be happy with his salary and be able to help them, so why would he need to raise Guo Aiyun and Hu Meilian.

Guo Zhiqiang also complained to Hu Meilian from time to time, sneering at her children who are all so promising, she should ask them for pension money as a mother.

Hu Meilian remembered Yuan Xia's words of persuasion when she remarried back then, and regretted it all. If she had listened to her eldest son, that is, in the first few years of suffering, she would have enjoyed a happy life today. I don't know how many people would envy her.

But if she asked Yuan Xia for money, she couldn't open her mouth.Fortunately, the environment is relaxed now. As long as you work hard, you can still make money. Hu Meilian set up a small stall on the street and sold pancakes to earn a little money.

It is very ironic to say that, back then, my grandfather also sold noodles in order to support his grandchildren.Isn't what she's doing now the same job as grandpa did back then?Moreover, her situation is far worse than that of her grandfather, and there is no end in sight.

When Hu Meilian left, Yuan Xia gave her 200 yuan: "This is the pension that our brothers and sisters gave you for one year. I will give you a sum of money every year in the future. It is not that you yourself are seriously ill. Don’t come to us for money. We have an obligation to support you, not others.”

Holding the money, Hu Meilian had mixed feelings in her heart. She heard from Li Yuying that the nanny Yuan Xia hired was 500 yuan a month, and she could do all the things she did.But they would rather invite outsiders than ask her to help. This is really to distance themselves from themselves.

Relatives and friends left one after another, only Si Haibo's family of four remained, saying that it was a rare visit, and they wanted to have a good time for a few days.

As soon as Yu Xing arranged for him to live in his own home, Si Haibo couldn't help gossiping about him: "Now that Yuan Qiu and Yuan Dong are married, when will you and Yuan Xia, two golden bachelors, get married? Baby born."

Yu Xing said with a smile: "Then don't save it. I probably won't need it anymore."

"Why?" Si Haibo stared at him with wide eyes, then looked Yu Xingyi up and down, and then lowered his voice and said, "Professor Yu, you are—"

Yu Xing looked at him puzzled: "What?"

Si Haibo leaned closer to his ear and said, "What kind of dysfunction is that male."

Yu Xing's ears turned red: "Don't talk nonsense, it's nothing like that. It's just that you don't want to get married."

He almost forgot that Si Haibo was not a serious person, and he was the only one who would say such unserious things to himself. The others were either not familiar enough for this, or they just couldn't make such jokes.

Si Haibo chuckled, his eyes were a little playful: "I don't believe it. If you really have some minor ailment, go to the hospital to see it. It's not shameful."

Yu Xingyi could only stare at the sky speechlessly after being told by him, Yuan Xia naturally knew about his obstacles, but he couldn't let Yuan Xia come out to prove himself.

However, the single issue between him and Yuan Xia did attract the attention of many people. At this Yuan Dong's wedding, there were seven aunts and eight aunts trying to help Yuan Xia introduce someone.

Although they were all declined by Yuan Xia, it also means that their single status has aroused more and more people's curiosity and doubts.My sister and Yuan Dong can see it, but others can't?Maybe I can see it, but I just have doubts in my heart and don't say it.

When Yu Xing thought of his and Yuan Xia's future, he couldn't help sighing, hoping that the rumors would stay away from them.

After the wedding ceremony, Yuan Dong took his newlywed wife back to his hometown to pay respects to his grandfather and father.

Yuan Xia was still a little worried that Chang Le, a girl who grew up in a big city, would not be able to bear the harsh conditions in the countryside. Yuan Dong told him not to worry. Chang Le went to the mountainous area for a short-term research during his university term to know what real life in the countryside is like. .

But Yuan Xia soon had no time to worry about Yuan Dong and his wife, because something happened to the company.

One of the long-arm excavators rushed out of their factory this year broke its arm while cleaning the river!

According to the feedback from the construction party, the bucket was stuck on the rocks at the bottom of the river. The driver thought it could be dug up and lifted it up with force. After several attempts, only a crisp sound was heard. disconnected, and the bucket fell into the river with its forearm and middle arm.

The key point is that there were superior leaders present for inspection at the time, which made the person in charge of the project lose face. The person in charge directly approached the person who was in charge of purchasing at the time, scolded him, saying that he was greedy for cheap and had no good products, and ordered them to return the products.

An accident such as a broken arm is a very serious failure for a machine.

However, this is not uncommon in the excavator industry. Powerful excavators such as Caterpillar and Komatsu will also have broken arms.

But Xingyuan was unlucky this time, because he caught up with the leader's inspection, so he had to bear the thunderous anger of the project leader.The other party strongly demanded the return, and not one, but all the long-arm excavators were returned.

Yuan Xia heard about this on the phone, and personally called to communicate with the person in charge of the other party's procurement. Other products are not damaged, so they cannot be returned.

The other party said that although the arm was not broken, there were many other problems. He said directly: "Mr. Yuan, if you don't believe me, come here and see for yourself to see if I have lied to you. I trust you and Chief Ma , I also want to help a bunch of domestic brands, so I bought your products and took such a big risk for you, you can't make me lose my job, right?"

At the beginning, the bidding information was given to Yuan Xia by Ma Jianshe. He is also a small leader now. Yuan Xia was silent for a while before saying: "Your projects have not been started all the time, and all of them have been withdrawn. What about the projects?"

The other party said: "We rented some excavators for use, and bought a batch of second-hand Komatsu and Caterpillar excavators, which are already on the way."

Why buy a used phone?Because new phones have to wait for several months, only second-hand phones are in stock, and you can buy them whenever you want.

In the 90s, China was the largest second-hand mobile phone sales market for construction machinery. Due to backward technology and poor performance, domestic excavators could not compete with foreign brands of second-hand mobile phones. This is the bloody reality.

Yuan Xia couldn't care less about sadness, he quickly calculated an account in his mind, fifty long-arm excavators, calculated to be more than 2000 million, the final payment for this batch of goods has not been received yet, but more than 1000 million still has to be refunded payment.

Yuan Xia called the company's management department and the main person in charge of the R&D department to a meeting. Everyone was silent when they heard this situation.

Teng Zhifei was the hardest hit. He stayed up for so many days and nights for this batch of goods, and even fell ill, but this turned out to be the case.

Liang Hongchang said: "Mr. Yuan, do you really want to refund all the purchase price? The machines they gave us are not new either."

Yuan Xia said: "They would rather pay the depreciation fee than return all the products. It's my fault, I was too confident, which caused the current consequences."

Teng Zhifei's nails dug into the flesh: "No, it's my fault, the quality of the steel is not up to standard."

Yuan Xia waved his hand: "I can't blame you, I proposed the strength standard of Q500, I thought that if it reached this standard, there would be no problem. I ignored other factors."

Q500 steel may be usable in 20 or [-] years, but the performance of the supporting parts and material processing technology of the current products are still far behind, and he did not fully take these factors into consideration.

Yu Xingyi said: "Then what should we do? Shall we continue to produce long-arm excavators?"

Yuan Xia said: "I think it's time to stop. Let's find out all the existing product problems and eliminate them one by one."

Liang Hongchang said: "Yuangong, there is a saying that I don't know if I should say it or not? I have been thinking about whether it is necessary to continue to make excavators. We have been doing it for several years, and we have sold less than [-] units in total. The cost has not been recovered. Now it has to be returned, and the loss will be even greater. Why not focus on dump trucks and cement pump trucks.”

Yuan Xia's reaction to Liang Hongchang is not surprising. It is estimated that many managements think so. In the past two years, they have been subsidizing money to make excavators, all supported by the profits of dump trucks.

As soon as Liang Hongchang said this, the faces of those in the R&D department were a little unsightly.

Yuan Xia smiled a little: "I can actually understand Mr. Liang's words. But since I set up the factory, although I haven't gotten rich overnight, it can be regarded as smooth sailing. Maybe it's because it's so smooth that everyone doesn't like it. I am too used to setbacks. In fact, it is extremely normal for factories to have problems or even crises. You cannot cut off a product just because of a small accident. Excavators must be made, and the investment in the future will only be greater .To make the product more perfect, so that people can't find any faults."

"Yuangong is right." Yu Xingyi also nodded in agreement, "We have put in so much hard work and effort in the research and development of excavators, and we have not even achieved good results. All our efforts have been in vain. The country is now vigorously developing its economy, and China is changing rapidly. The demand for excavators is increasing exponentially every year, and the sales volume of domestic excavators is very low. We cannot give up this market to foreign brands.”

Yuan Xia said: "Yes, I plan to adjust the company's strategy. Excavators are still made of miniature and small ones. We need to improve the shortcomings of long-arm excavators one by one. At present, we mainly focus on dump trucks and cement pump trucks, domestically produced high-rise buildings There are more and more, and the conveying height of the cement pump truck is getting higher and higher, let's conquer the 50-meter-high cement pump truck first."

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but be speechless. The current height their pump truck can reach is more than 20 meters, 50 meters. Can it be done?
