Chapter 139: Fiery Technology Award (3k)
The leader took the document, opened it and read it, and Secretary Zheng turned and left the office.
As he watched, a look of joy appeared on his face, and his smile became more and more obvious.
The other people at the meeting were a little puzzled. What could have made him put down the ongoing meeting and concentrate on reading a page of paper, and become happier and happier the more he read?
However, for such urgent matters, the leader doesn't say anything and other people can't ask, so I can only feel itchy but unable to do anything.
Finally, the leader raised his head from the documents, looked around at everyone, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, everyone. This matter is really important. I'm sorry for taking up your time."
A colleague who had worked with him for a long time and was very familiar with him couldn't help but say: "If you have good news, just say it, don't keep it to yourself. If it's something confidential, just pretend I didn't say it."
The leader thought for a moment and said, "There's nothing that can't be said. It's not confidential, which is a good thing."
After saying that, he raised the document in his hand and said, "The joint material trial production team composed of our comrades from the Third Steel Rolling Plant and the Beijing Steel Plant, under the leadership of Comrade Gao Zhendong from the Third Steel Rolling Plant, has successfully trial-produced our own urea steel!"
Although none of us are engaged in agriculture, we all know very well what urea is used for and what its significance is.
The venue was in an uproar and full of emotions.
The industrial production of urea has nothing to do with our department, but it is enough for us to produce the steel used for urea.
"Is it true? I remember that not long ago, people from the Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of Applied Chemical Industry complained to me that our 17th Ministry of Machinery could not provide the steel they wanted, which caused the industrial production process of urea to be indecisive and unable to move forward."
The Department of Applied Chemistry, everything related to applied chemistry is there.
"This time, we have cleared one obstacle."
"Food!"
"This time I can finally stand up straight with my wife. She is in the agricultural sector and scolds me every day because of this matter."
"."
Although he was not a direct researcher on the industrial production of urea, nor was he engaged in grain production in the agricultural sector, this urea steel was undoubtedly the greatest support that the 17th Ministry of Machine Building could provide in this matter.
Everyone present breathed a sigh of relief. In this matter, the 17th Ministry of Machine Building had delivered a good answer.
Being in a relaxed and happy mood, as we talked, the main topic deviated.
"Why is it that the new material is not led by the people in the steel mill, but by Comrade Gao from the steel rolling mill? Logically, the people in the steel mill are more familiar with this aspect than the people in the steel rolling mill."
"Gao Zhendong? This name sounds so familiar."
"How can I not be familiar with him? This young man has come up with a lot of good things recently."
"If it was someone else from the steel mill, they would generally not be as familiar with him as the one from the steel mill. But this Gao Zhendong is different."
"Think about it, those confidential materials were just recently converted to production."
"Oh, I remember now, it was him! No wonder."
Seeing that everyone was in high spirits, the leader also smiled and said, "Yes, Comrade Gao Zhendong is good and deserves a reward."
At this point, the leader's words suddenly got stuck.
Everyone looked at him in surprise.
The leader smiled bitterly and said, "This comrade has made many achievements, so it seems difficult to reward him."
So if anyone doesn't understand the situation, please ask the leader to tell you what is going on.
The leader gave a brief list of Gao Zhendong's achievements. Everyone present was surprised. They knew that this comrade was very productive, but they didn't expect his productivity to be that kind.
Now I understand why the leader is stuck. It's not easy to reward him because this person has achieved a lot, and they are all very important.
In fact, it’s not that bad. Gao Zhendong has been promoted from a level 10 technician to a level 7 engineer, and his administrative level has also risen to deputy director. Putting aside the importance, the number of promotions and the number of achievements are basically corresponding.
But the importance of something is not easy to put aside.
After everyone thought about it, they felt that it was a bit unfair to Comrade Gao Zhendong. It was rare to see a group of big men who were several levels higher than them fighting over a small deputy director.
Everyone thought about it for a while, and a deputy said, "How about this? We set up an honor for technical personnel and award it once a year. It just so happens that besides Comrade Gao Zhendong, there are actually similar cases, but not as exaggerated as his. We use this honor to recognize their contributions, which is also a good thing."
What this means is that for those who are not convenient to increase their level or professional title in a short period of time, just give them an award first.
Another deputy nodded: "Well, I think this is a good idea. When evaluating job titles and levels, we should fully consider the role of this honor."
Well, this is a good idea. Even if I don’t use it in the short term, I can just save it for next time.”
When everyone heard this, they all thought it was a good idea. Suddenly, a comrade asked, "How many will Gao Zhendong give? One? A bunch?"
The leader thought about it and made the decision: "Give it to as many people as you can. This is for projects. As long as you rank in the top three in project contribution, no matter who you are, you can get it. It's an objective evaluation and seek truth from facts."
This kind of situation of awarding prizes in a cluster was actually not uncommon at that time. There were many gaps, opportunities, and talented people on all fronts, so many prizes were awarded.
For specific details, you can refer to the tough guys whose medals can be used as bulletproof vests at several military hero conferences.
Everyone thought that this was a one-time deal anyway, and it wasn't like levels that needed to be stacked and couldn't be lowered once they went up, so it didn't matter if there were more, because they were so powerful.
If anyone has any objections, you can also produce so many results at once. As long as you have this ability, I will give it to you with great fanfare. So everyone finally agreed to set up a science and technology award to reward major scientific and technological achievements within the system and technicians who have made outstanding contributions to these achievements. In combination with the characteristics of the 17th Ministry of Machine Building, the award was named the "Liehuo Science and Technology Award."
True gold can only be refined by fierce fire.
As for when the awards will be given out, we will have to wait. The formulation, preparation, evaluation and awarding of award rules will take a lot of time.
As for the steel mill, there was not much stir because the matter was only circulated among a few people. Only a small number of people knew the situation and were secretly excited.
At a certain chemical research institute, Mr. Xiang received another telegram, this time with only six words and punctuation marks.
"It's done, come quickly!"
Looking at the familiar sender and these few concise words, Mr. Xiang jumped three feet high.
"Xiao Feng, Xiao Feng, buy a ticket and go to Beijing!!"
Gao Zhendong, who had successfully trial-produced urea steel, took a vacation for himself, and the trial-production of the third and fourth furnaces was handed over to comrades from Beijing Steel Plant and the Third Rolling Plant.
Everything that needs to be explained has been explained, and everything that needs to be produced has been produced. You are a mature scientific research team, and you must learn to make your own steel.
The comrades in the joint trial production group of corrosion-resistant materials were not the least dissatisfied with Gao Zhendong's behavior. It has come to this point, and Director Gao is still needed to guard here. It is a shame for us.
Do what you should do.
What was Gao Zhendong doing? He was going to keep his promise.
At the Lou family, Lou Xiao'e held up the three sample books that Gao Zhendong had brought over and smiled brightly.
This is the publication of Gao Zhendong's "Project Management System". When the two were buying books at Xinghua Bookstore, they made a promise to Lou Xiao'e that he would publish more books in the future.
The same sentence was written on the title pages of the three books in Lou Xiao'e's hands.
——"To Xiao'e: This is the Xth book. Gao Zhendong"
This is a little fun thing between the two of them.
The letters are the same, except that X becomes two, three, and four.
As for which one is the second and which one is the fourth, it is actually a confusing account, just like triplets, who is actually bigger? They are all the same size.
Fortunately, books are not like children, and they don’t try to rank them in order of size.
Lou Xiao'e is very satisfied with Gao Zhendong's seemingly boring and somewhat stiff romance as a science and engineering man.
I can only say that some good things can only shine when they meet the right person.
Lou Xiao'e showed off the book in front of her parents as if she was presenting a treasure. This is a new book published by my son Zhendong!
Mother Lou looked at the two of them and smiled widely.
Because of the book, but more because of the two of them.
Father Lou was also pleased. As for writing books, he had once tried to show off his literary talent by publishing a book at his own expense. However, apart from giving away the books, he hardly sold any of them.
Now I have someone in my family who can write books, and people buy them.
Excited, Lou Xiao'e wanted to drag Gao Zhendong out to buy his books.
How can these few books be enough? Are you kidding me? If my friends in the circle see this, they will think that no one reads Zhendong's books. Who can read just one book? Give me a few more, one for each person!
But she was immediately disappointed. Gao Zhendong told her that this was a professional book that had been printed and almost completely consumed internally, so where could she buy it?
But she soon became happy, because this showed that Zhendong's books were in great demand. If you change your perspective, many things would seem beautiful.
She tapped Gao Zhendong's nose and said with a smile, "Tell me quickly, is there any good news you are hiding from me?"
Gao Zhendong thought for a moment and said, "Does it count if I'm the deputy director?"
Lou Xiao'e was very happy, but she didn't quite understand what it meant. She was just happy that Gao Zhendong really had good news.
But Father Lou was horrified, because he knew too well what it meant for Gao Zhendong to be a deputy director at his age, and he was also a level 7 engineer.
"Zhendong, double happiness, let's drink a little today."
As for Lou's mother, when she heard the news, there was only one word for her: happy!
The trains these days were quite slow and rattling. With Mr. Xiang so anxious that he wanted to carry the train to hurry on, he finally arrived in the capital.
At the Third Rolling Mill, he saw the rolled plates and the inspection report sent by Beijing Steel Plant to the Third Rolling Mill.
President Xiang almost put his glasses on the paper as he carefully checked the inspection data item by item.
The people who came with him looked at him with a little nervousness.
Finally, Mr. Xiang laughed out loud: "That's it, that's it. This is the urea stainless steel I want!"
His entourage was all smiling. The news had been confirmed and they could proceed with the process with confidence. At least they would not have to give up the optimal route or lower the indicators due to material problems.
President Xiang looked at President Chen and asked anxiously, "Where is the comrade who studied this steel? I want to thank him in person!"
