Chapter 314 Comrade Zhendong’s application cannot be approved!

Gao Zhendong, who didn't know that the little stock he had on hand had been coveted, was spending his weekend. However, the way he spent the weekend was relatively traditional in the eyes of people in his previous life: he was watching TV.

——Watch the recorded women’s volleyball league.

As for live broadcast, it’s a lot to think about these days, especially since these competitions are not held in Beijing.

What Gao Zhendong didn't expect was that there was actually a women's volleyball league at this time, but there was only the B-level league during this period, and the A-level league was in November.

What was even more unexpected was that there were as many as 77 participating teams in this B-level league, which was the largest number of participating teams in a national league unprecedented in the country and would never be surpassed until Gao Zhendong traveled through time.

However, not every game is recorded and broadcast. There are many cities participating in the event, but Beijing is not among them. This makes the broadcast of the event difficult, so they are recorded selectively.

When Gao Zhendong saw this, he felt a bit like he was reminiscing about his past life. However, it was different for Lou Xiaoe. She looked at the heroic volleyball team members and felt extremely excited as if she saw herself.

In order to promote women's liberation, perhaps this is the reason why part of the program has to be recorded no matter how difficult or troublesome it is. At least the propaganda effect is very good for Lou Xiao'e.

"Zhendong, the girls on the women's volleyball team are so awesome." Although the video was blurry, Lou Xiao'e's eyes were still sparkling with stars.

"You don't have to envy them. When you go to university and become a doctor, you will be as good as them." Gao Zhendong started by praising them.

But what he said was not wrong. In his opinion, the beauty of the women's volleyball team lies in their courageous fighting, never giving up, and self-reliance. No matter what kind of woman she is, as long as she possesses these qualities, she is beautiful.

If Lou Xiao'e continues on her current path, apart from anything else, there will be no problem for her to study hard and become independent and strong.

Lou Xiao'e really listened to it and imagined happily: "Well, you are right. When I become a doctor, I will give you two injections first!"

Gao Zhendong really couldn't say that she was wrong. Times these days were different from the future. At that time, there was a serious shortage of medical resources. Many grassroots doctors had to do the job of both doctors and nurses. Otherwise, medical students would not have become one of the largest groups of college entrance examination admissions.

Without saying a word, he complimented her and said, "Okay, okay, if our Doctor Lou wants to practice his skills later, just come to me." He couldn't discourage Xiao'e's enthusiasm.

Lou Xiao'e really fell for it, her eyes turned into crescents as she smiled: "That's right!" After saying that, she puffed out her chest, looking quite proud.

Look, the publicity effect is amazing.

Around five o'clock in the afternoon, there was a knock on the door. When I opened the door, I saw Wang Dezhuo's family of four standing at the door.

Several people from their family came in. Before they came in, Wang Dezhu howled at Xie Jianye's family: "Old Xie~~~~ Let's have dinner at the platoon leader's house~~~~ You guys don't have to cook anymore!!"

Xie Jianye stuck half of his head out of the window: "Okay, we'll be right over."

Although it is not time for dinner yet, it is impossible for Mr. and Mrs. Xie to come here to eat on time. It is lively here and it is more fun when there are more people around.

Wang Dezhu was carrying some things in his hands. Gao Zhendong smiled and said, "Oh, you're here, why are you bringing anything?"

Wang Dezhu also laughed: "Hehe, I prepared it for today's meal, so don't expect to have any leftovers."

Gao Zhendong reacted quickly: "It looks like the sister-in-law thing I mentioned last time is going to happen?"

"Well, we've been running around for this matter and finally it's been settled. Fortunately, you got the news quickly, otherwise we wouldn't have made it." Although there's no need to be polite with Gao Zhendong, he still has to bring something to eat.

Before Gao Zhendong could say anything, Lou Xiaoe was the first to laugh: "That's great, sister-in-law. Now we can be the same age. We don't have to envy Zhendong and his two brothers anymore."

Wan Yueqin smiled and said, "Sister, you're right. Now it's their turn to envy us, hahaha."

Several people started laughing, even Xiaomei, who was struggling with the wrapper on the candy, opened her toothless mouth and laughed along with the adults. Xiao Chengyan bit his finger, looked at the adults curiously, and then at his sister.
-
On Monday noon, before Su Weihua and his team arrived at Gao Zhendong's place, Gao Zhendong himself received a piece of bad news which was not really bad news.

——Last week he sent an application to the National Defense Work Committee, but it was not approved.

This is the first time in history, but the reason for not approving it has nothing to do with feasibility, economy, necessity, etc.

Back to the morning of that day, the leader of the Defense Work Committee looked at an application sent by Gao Zhendong and smacked his teeth.

"Hiss, why does Gao Zhendong want to study these things?" Looking at the partial list of materials on the application, the leader, who was also a veteran of the battlefield, was a little surprised.

Various nitrates, various perchlorates, nitrocellulose, nitroglycerin, RDX, picric acid, lead fulminate, nitroglycerin.
If these understandable ones are scary enough, then the rest, such as phenylurethane and adipic acid ester, are even more confusing at first glance.

There were even some things that seemed to be plausible, but he didn't believe that Gao Zhendong would make typos, which made him even more uncomfortable. For example, in dinitrotoluene, replacing two with three was familiar to the leader, but he was confused about the dinitro.

Judging from this list, it is obvious that they are dealing with pyrotechnics. This can also be seen from the report. But if you are dealing with pyrotechnics, what is the meaning of using so much asphalt?
In fact, Gao Zhendong was just itching to try his hands. When he was working on an anti-tank missile rocket engine, he wanted to try out many kinds of propellants and even warhead charges in the book. Setting off fireworks and firecrackers are always men's favorites.

And this asphalt is actually the main component of a propellant, and it even accounts for a considerable proportion of the propellant. However, this thing is actually outdated, and people who are not engaged in this technical field don’t know this.

He had no idea how dangerous his report might seem to others. What? Did he want to win the Nobel Prize?
Not to mention the leaders, even the chief engineer of the department who was invited felt that the list in the application was outrageous.

"Leader, I saw in his report that he wanted to make propellants, but looking at this list, it doesn't seem like it. I have never seen such a complicated propellant, and some of the things don't seem to have anything to do with propellants."

It can't be said that the chief engineer of the department doesn't understand. It's mainly because some of the things Gao Zhendong came up with are too advanced and haven't been studied to that level yet. Some of the things can't be thought of being used here.

Let’s not talk about anything else, just the HTPB. Although Gao Zhendong honestly wrote “hydroxy-terminated polybutadiene”, this kind of propellant was not developed even by the Citigroup guys until the late 60s. Moreover, this thing is not considered an energetic material and seems to have nothing to do with propellants. At that time, anyone in China would be confused when they saw it.

However, the leader's idea was a little different from his: "Don't worry about whether it is a propellant or not, just tell me whether it is dangerous or not."

This sentence is equivalent to nonsense. Looking at the list, except for those that I cannot understand, all the ones that I can understand are either burning more vigorously than the last, or exploding more loudly than the last.

It would be fine if they just burned vigorously and exploded loudly, but some of them are particularly easy to get angry, such as nitroglycerin and lead fulminate. The former is well-known, and the latter has a brother called mercury fulminate. The most common place for these two brothers is in the primer of ammunition, so you can imagine how bad their tempers are.

The chief engineer of the department smiled and said, "Leader, you are an expert yourself, why are you asking me?"

The leader of the Defense Work Committee couldn't help but mutter, "What is Gao Zhendong trying to do? Ah? What is he trying to do?"

The chief engineer of the department said: "Comrade Zhendong must be here to get equipment. There is no doubt about that."

If an ordinary person were to handle these things, the list would definitely be sent out in the morning and the people would go in at noon. However, Gao Zhendong is not an ordinary person. His starting point is undoubtedly for work, but this work seems to be a little noisy.

The leader slapped the table and said, "Didn't I know he was looking for equipment? I was asking what kind of equipment he wanted? Ah? So many dangerous goods? So many specialized factories, does he need to go there personally? You're talking nonsense!"

So you are afraid of hurting others.

The chief engineer of the department laughed and said, "Boss, there is something wrong with what you said. There are so many specialized factories for computers, urea steel, silicon single crystals, etc. Aren't they all developed by him?"

The two have worked together for many years, and this kind of joke is common. When the leader heard this, he was speechless for a moment: "Then this is too far from his professional direction!"

The chief engineer of the department laughed even more happily: "How many of the things he has done are not too far away from his major?"

When the leader heard this, he didn't know what to say: "You came here just to argue with me today, right? Don't you understand what I mean? I won't approve this report! Absolutely not!"

The chief engineer of the ministry then said, "It's okay not to approve it, but we should communicate with Comrade Gao Zhendong. Business matters are more important."

The leader thought to himself, I am not approving this report just because I am concerned about my business.

"Okay, you call him later and ask him what's going on. Forget it, I'll call him myself!"

So Gao Zhendong, who had written a propellant research report last week, received a call and a scolding from the leader of the Defense Work Committee with a confused look on his face.

The core is just two words: This application report will not be approved!
Scolding means only one thing: You kid, you are messing around!
Although the leader scolded him harshly, Gao Zhendong still understood what the leader meant and was touched. In fact, it was all for his safety.

However, in Gao Zhendong's opinion, compared with the man holding the sun fragments, his situation is nothing. After all, the dangers are known and clear, and there is no problem in strictly implementing the safety management requirements.

He said something quietly, and the leader was silenced: "Leader, if I don't do it, won't other comrades do it too? I am facing danger, and so are they."

These sincere words left the leader speechless. What a good comrade!
