Chapter 120: Hopeful, Ministry Approves Research (4k)

Gao Zhendong's advantage lies in the fact that there is no trial and error process. In terms of characteristics, right is right and wrong is wrong.

His current achievements in this area also allow him to bypass a lot of explanations and applications and just do it first. As for the procedures, he can just make up for it slowly.

Gao Zhendong took the two materials and made a careful comparison, but this comparison brought both good news and bad news.

The good news is that after comparison, he was very sure that what he drew was used for this matter.

The bad news is that he has to find a way to explain this matter clearly to others, especially in principle. Of course, it is not impossible not to explain it clearly, but it would feel incomplete.

In general, this thing in hand was first made public in the 90s, but it was clearly applied in practical applications in the 80s and underwent large-scale actual engineering tests. After years of operation, the final conclusion was that it could be used to replace imported materials.

But the problem is that for the description of the same requirement, the requirement specification and the paper are two different things, and they have to be matched in principle.

For example, take the copper-infiltrated graphite material that Gao Zhendong helped Northeast Carbon Research Institute solve.

From the application perspective, the requirement description is that the ablation rate should not be higher than xx microns/second at a jet pressure of xx MPa and a jet temperature of xxxx.

However, from a technical point of view, the description is that copper and graphite are combined in a certain way to form a certain form of material structure organization, and the organization meets certain conditions. The mechanical conditions are how much tensile strength, how much compressive strength, and how much shear strength.

It seems that there is no connection between the two, but in fact, from the working principle, it is the copper-graphite organizational form that meets the mechanical conditions that determines that under the specified working conditions, the copper melts into intercrystalline copper liquid, taking away the heat and satisfying the conditions described in the requirements.

It sounds a bit complicated, but for Gao Zhendong, he needs to explain the last step clearly. There is no doubt about it. Just look up the principle in the book. Fortunately, he is looking for the principle with the answer, so it is much easier.

What if I still can’t find the principle? That’s easy. I can use a common sentence in papers: “The principle is not clear yet.” Anyway, I have met the requirement.

Out of the idea of ​​perfection, Gao Zhendong was prepared to try his best to explain the principle and make it clear, to help people to the end.

Starting tomorrow, I will prepare the materials and understand the principles, doing both.

However, making this material involves a technology that does not exist yet, which is a bit troublesome.

Fortunately, the equipment for this process was developed in China in 51 and is now in mature use, which reduces a lot of difficulty.

At this time, there was a knock on the door. Gao Zhendong opened the door and saw Qin Huairu standing at the door with Banggeng and Xiaodang.

Gao Zhendong had not originally planned to let Qin Huairu into the house, mainly because there was something that was difficult to explain clearly. If you have anything to say, just say it at the door.

However, seeing Banggeng and Xiaodang were there, Qin Huairu probably thought that this would avoid suspicion, so he invited the three of them in, but left the door open.

Qin Huairu came to thank Gao Zhendong. The night before, Gao Zhendong spoke up for her and helped her family a lot.

Qin Huairu did not come empty-handed, but brought a gift.

Gao Zhendong did not refuse, as it would be embarrassing for the other person if he refused.

He brought out a plate of melon seeds and peanuts mixed with a few hard candies, which made the two children's eyes light up.

Gao Zhendong asked Qin Huairu about the pension issue.

The result of Qin Huairu's replacement was the same as in her previous life. She had no cultural knowledge, so there was no hope for her in technology or administration.

Although she was not well educated, she was not stupid. She knew that the ceiling for odd jobs was too low, so she did not choose this type of job.

The rest are technical jobs in production. Although it is hard work, most of the work is done by machines, so it is not so bad for people, and the ceiling is high. Although Qin Huairu has worked for many years, he is still working in a basement with a salary of 27.5 yuan.

Qin Huairu also mentioned Jia Dongxu's funeral expenses. As Gao Zhendong said, it was higher than Jia Dongxu's three months salary.

Gao Zhendong and Qin Huairu chatted briefly for a while, and then Qin Huairu prepared to go home. The two children were enjoying their meal and were very clean, so they didn't throw the candy wrappers and fruit shells everywhere.

Seeing that the two children were eating happily and a little unwillingly, Gao Zhendong simply went to get a bag of fruit hard candies and handed them to the two children.

Firstly, it was a return gift, and secondly, Gao Zhendong liked children, and everyone in the hospital knew it.

Qin Huairu tried to refuse but failed, so she had to accept it.

Holding the candy, Qin Huairu stood at the entrance of the middle courtyard, looked at the lights in Gao Zhendong's house and sighed. She went to thank him and ended up bringing back a bag of candy. Director Gao is really generous.

The next day, Gao Zhendong went to work and went to Lao Chen's place first.

Old Chen saw him coming again and asked with a smile, "What's up? Is there any good news about yesterday's incident?"

Gao Zhendong smiled and nodded: "That's right, Master. I've been thinking about it all night and I think there is a way, but the details still need to be verified in actual work."

Gao Zhendong then added: "But there is a problem. In my conception, there is a new process that requires the use of a side-blown converter, which is pure steelmaking equipment and we don't have it. It also requires a large amount of argon gas, which also needs to be solved."

The side-blown converter is a converter steelmaking method that blows gas into the side of the converter body to remove impurity elements in the molten iron and provide heat to obtain higher quality steel. It was first successfully put into production in China in 51.

When Lao Chen heard this, he was scratching his head a bit, but when he heard that there was a way, he was already very happy: "Is there really a way? You have thought so deeply about it? Even the process has been figured out?"

It's not what I thought, it's already in the paper, Gao Zhendong thought, but he still said, "Well, it took me a lot of time."

When Old Chen heard this, he wanted to kick this guy a few times. You are redefining "a lot".

After pacing around the office excitedly for a few times, Lao Chen said, "Don't worry about the equipment and materials. I'll go to the department to get them, or ask the department to mobilize a professional steel mill to cooperate with you. Regardless of whether it can be done or not, we're taking this gamble."

Gao Zhendong nodded and said, "Okay, Master. I'll go do something else first."

After saying that, he left Lao Chen with a rough list of equipment and material requirements and went back to work.

This is an informal report. It is not yet time to write a research project application, but having this list is enough to make the point clear.

Watching Gao Zhendong walk out of the office, Lao Chen excitedly turned around in circles in the room, muttering to himself: "This kid really figured out something. I have to report to the department."

While Gao Zhendong was continuing his work, Lao Chen had already rushed to the ministry and asked to meet the leader of the 17th Ministry of Machine Building.

Secretary Zheng saw that the chief engineer of the third steel rolling mill was in urgent need of help, so he did not hesitate and immediately arranged for him to join the queue to meet the leader, which made the other waiting comrades look envious. Chen first told the general manager about his request for help, and the leader was very interested: "Haha, I didn't expect that your factory is so famous that people would come here just for your reputation."

Mr. Chen was a little ashamed: "In this regard, it's all thanks to Gao Zhendong."

The leader shook his head and said, "Your factory has provided him with sufficient support, environment and conditions, which is also a great contribution. Speaking of what you said, it is indeed very meaningful. What did Gao Zhendong say?"

Mr. Chen reported seriously: "He said that there is a possibility, but it requires some support, and our factory does not have the conditions."

Mr. Chen has reduced the possibility expressed in Gao Zhendong's original words a lot. As for the reason, those who understand will understand.

The leader listened and said without hesitation: "Let's do it! Tell him not to feel pressured and to make every effort to make this 'point' come true. It doesn't matter if he fails, we are willing to pay for it! What support does he need?"

Lao Chen handed the list of equipment and materials Gao Zhendong gave him to his leader, who smiled and said, "That's it? Your factory doesn't have it, but other factories have quite a few. Gao Zhendong knows how to adapt to local conditions and make do with what he has."

He continued reading and laughed, "Hey, we still need nickel. Haha, luckily he is very capable and forced others to open the door to export nickel. Otherwise, we really wouldn't be able to get much. Haha, he is taking advantage of others."

The leader put the list aside and said to General Manager Chen, "Let us consider the most appropriate support plan. You go back first and ask Comrade Zhendong to put aside the issues regarding the source of equipment, materials and personnel and directly write a report and apply."

Mr. Chen smiled bitterly and said, "Leader, he just came back from the 12th Ministry of Machinery's Computing Institute and is now preparing for the Project Management System training, which will begin soon."

The leader was stunned: "Oh, I forgot about this. It doesn't matter. It will take some time for the department to determine the support plan and coordinate the organization. It should be in time."

Mr. Chen got the confirmation and was about to leave when his boss suddenly stopped him and added, "By the way, go back and inform Director Yang that you should implement the matter we discussed with him last time about Gao Zhendong's promotion to a higher level at the end of the year."

Although the promotion to a higher level was a bit modest compared to Gao Zhendong's achievements, the fact that the 17th Ministry of Machine Building personally cared about such a small matter still showed the attitude of the higher-ups.

Old Chen happily agreed and walked towards the factory.

On the way, he thought about it and went to the post office.

A certain chemical research institute received a registered telegram from President Xiang, which said: "It is promising. The Ministry has approved the research."

These seven characters, which had no beginning or end, were extremely brief, and lacked words or symbols, excited Mr. Xiang. He finally saw a glimmer of hope. Although it might not necessarily lead to success, it was at least better than having no hope at all before.

These seven characters translate to: "There is some hope for what you want. I have reported it to the ministry, and the ministry has approved the research."

He will never know that what he needed was not solved until the 80s.

As for why this telegram was written in such a mess, we have to talk about the miserable conditions of telegraph sending back then: every word was charged, including symbols, and the price was 3 cents per character.

The minimum consumption is 10 characters.

Don't complain about this minimum consumption, because in addition to the content of the telegram, the receiving address and recipient's name, the sender's information is also charged.

A telegram cost only seventy cents or one dollar and it was gone.

Therefore, at that time, telegrams were sent with extreme economy, and the final period and the like would not be included unless necessary.

Mr. Chen paid for the telegram to Mr. Xiang out of his own pocket, so of course he just had to make it clear.

If it were someone with a lower salary, the only thing he would get would be “approved by the ministry for research” or even “acceptable”.

Gao Zhendong was checking and reviewing the ESR situation. When he met the editors of the Project Management System, they all smiled and at least said "Thank you, Director Gao."

It seems that Lao Chen distributes money very quickly, Gao Zhendong thought.

After reviewing all the situations of the ESR, Gao Zhendong called several sub-project leaders of the ESR project team to his office and said, "Well, it's OK. Let's start the work related to the project conclusion. I hope everyone will be on the last shift of this project."

All the participants cheered, as more than two months of hard work were finally bearing fruit.

But think about it, such a thing can be completed in more than two months, the speed is really amazing.

After receiving the task from Gao Zhendong, everyone was full of energy and got busy with their work.

Gao Zhendong himself invited a comrade who was good at taking shorthand and started to do two things at once.

But today, he did not program. Instead, he was looking at 5DL's firepower materials in the storage library while orally reciting the contents of the "Safety Production Management System".

The sooner this thing comes out, the better. Although it seems useless and even gets criticized every day, it may be able to save a few more lives invisibly.

This is what the safety production management procedure is all about. When it takes effect, people can’t feel it at all and may even feel annoyed.

By the time you miss it most, it is often too late.

Then came the three regrets: “I didn’t expect it”, “I knew it earlier”, and “If I could”.

Those with good luck will lose money; those with bad luck will have to operate a sewing machine; those with even worse luck will have to cook Meng Po's soup and sit in a private seat.

When we were busy, Deputy Director Li came over. He was also a participant in the editing of the "Project Management System". He must have received the editing fee and came over to say hello.

The money is secondary. It is still some distance from his monthly salary. But on the one hand, Gao Zhendong expressed his respect for him, and on the other hand, he wanted to show his respect for Gao Zhendong.

After vaguely mentioning the participation fee, the two chatted for a while, and Deputy Director Li smiled and said, "Speaking of which, I also want to thank you. You have also made contributions to our logistics department."

Gao Zhendong didn't understand what was said and looked confused: "What? Director Li, I didn't do anything in logistics."

Deputy Director Li pointed in the direction of the guesthouse and said, "This is where you are so smart, Zhendong. You don't have to take care of it, it will be done naturally. The number of people attending the training has filled our guesthouse."

Gao Zhendong suddenly realized that this was the reason. He really did help a little. Although all profits and taxes had to be turned over, the cash flow could still bring a lot of benefits to logistics.

While Gao Zhendong was busy, a contradictory story was about to unfold at the shooting range of the Grassland Tractor Factory.
