Siheyuan: Since 1962

Chapter 185 Opportunity
"Hey, let's have a smoke. Technician Yu, have we come up with any new results in the technical department? We have a lot of production tasks recently, and we also have to hold a skills competition. The people in our workshop are so busy that they can't even keep their feet on the ground."

Lu Chunan gave the two of them a cigarette and started to complain.

Liu Haizhong took out a match with a flattering look on his face and went over to light the two men's cigarettes, while at the same time not forgetting to try to build a relationship with them.

"Guard, what Director Lu said is true. You have seen how busy your uncle has been these past few days. There has not been a single day that I haven't worked overtime."

Guard Zhou gave a helpless bitter smile and said to the two apologetically, "I can do it myself. Master Liu, what are you talking about? Director Lu can still lie to us. We also want to come up with some new results to make it easier for everyone to complete the task, but these new results are not that good."

Yu Dewen and Lu Chunan looked at each other and said in a gentle voice: "The guard is right. It is not so easy to produce new results. I really can't help you. I can only trouble you to spend more time."

"Hey, we are too impatient. Technician Yu, I heard that the First Machinery Factory has made a batch improvement on the machine tools. I wonder what our factory says?"

Lu Chunan understood what he meant and immediately started talking about machine tools.

Director Wang from the technical department was promoted to level 9 engineer before the New Year, but was transferred just after the New Year.

Deputy Director Jiang Yongkang became the Director of the Technical Department, and Yu Dewen has basically been confirmed as the Deputy Director.

Yu Dewen knew all this news best.

"Director Lu, you know that machine tool improvement will definitely start with the First Electronics Factory and Shougang. From what the director said, it would be great if it is our factory's turn in half a year. But I heard that a senior leader will come to this skills competition. If you and the masters work hard, you may be able to move up the time."

Yu Dewen said with a smile, with a hint of mockery in his eyes.

This is not without precedent, but there is only one level eight worker in the second workshop, so it is still a bit difficult to achieve the goal.

"Hey, I'll go back and talk to everyone and ask them to work harder. Technician Yu, Technician Zhou, we won't bother you anymore."

Lu Chunan smiled awkwardly and left with Liu Haizhong.

He said the wrong thing just now, so it's not Yu Dewen's fault for teasing him.

Yu Dewen walked into the technical department and asked casually, "Guard, is Master Liu from the second workshop in the same yard as you?"

Guard Zhou nodded and said helplessly, "We are from the same yard. When I went to the workshop before, it was all thanks to Master Liu. He has good skills, but he always wants to be an official. Master, don't take it to heart."

Yu Dewen put away the smile that was always on his face, turned around and said to Zhou Weibing with a serious face: "Don't take it to heart. Weibing, you are the fastest learner of technology I have seen in recent years, and you have the most ideas for improving technology. Don't be distracted by messy things. We who work in technology should not put too many things in our minds. If we think too much, our technology will be ruined."

He didn't want such a good seedling to waste his talent on things in the factory and yard.

Those with poor talents should work hard, and those with good talents should work even harder. One is to raise the lower limit, and the other is to break through the upper limit.

People with good talents are afraid of being distracted and only having a short-lived enthusiasm for things, which will result in nothing being achieved in the end.

"Master, I will focus all my energy on my skills and will definitely not let you down."

Zhou Weibing nodded seriously. His elder brother had said something similar to him. People who really wanted to do good for him always had similar ideas. Yu Dewen and Zhou Weibing looked at each other for a few seconds and said softly, "Talking is useless. You have to do it. This skills competition has nothing to do with our technical department, but it is a good opportunity for our technical department to observe. Carefully observe the operations of these senior workers in the competition and try to find problems with the machines. After the competition, I hope you can give me a good answer."

The skills competition will bring to the surface many problems that are not normally seen, which is an excellent observation opportunity for their technicians.

Many times, once the problem is found, 80% of it has been solved.

Guard Zhou nodded heavily without saying much, but he had already set a goal for himself in his mind.

The master is willing to guide him wholeheartedly, so he naturally cannot let the master down.

……

evening.

Zhou Weimin and Guo Xiangming pushed their bicycles and followed the crowd slowly out of the factory.

Along the way, people greeted the two from time to time. Many people were particularly enthusiastic towards Zhou Weimin. There were even a few senior workers in the workshop who came over to share cigarettes, which surprised Guo Xiangming.

After leaving the factory and away from the crowd, Guo Xiangming joked, "Wei Min, you are really good. You have only been the canteen director for a short time, but you have become a celebrity in our factory. Judging from the way those people greeted you just now, someone who didn't know you would think you were the director of our factory."

Zhou Weimin rolled his eyes at Guo Xiangming and said cheerfully, "Agent, agent. Don't you know why you are so enthusiastic? After I took over, the canteen has improved a lot in terms of taste and food. Yesterday, they even issued a notice to distribute snacks. Do you think you are the one who doesn't have to worry about food and clothing? We work in the factory just to have a bite to eat. Why don't you be more enthusiastic about you, the section chief, than I am about you?"

This is the advantage of taking advantage of Sha Zhu. There will be no troublemakers in the cafeteria and everyone will respect him as the cafeteria director.

If you can't control Sha Zhu, he won't have the final say in the cafeteria. Who would care about him? It's good enough if they don't talk about him as a joke after dinner!
Guo Xiangming rolled his eyes and said perfunctorily, "Yes, yes, Director Zhou is a good leader who gets things done. He should be supported by everyone."

Virtue...

"Just keep talking nonsense, but don't look so gloomy later."

Thinking about what he was going to say later, Zhou Weimin gave Guo Xiangming a heads-up in advance.

"Come on, don't keep me in suspense. My old man has already explained everything to me. It's just that simple. It won't be easy for us two brothers to have a drink together in the future."

After Guo Xiangming finished speaking, he whistled nonchalantly, as if what he was talking about had nothing to do with him.

Guo Zhenghe, the old man of the Guo family, holds a high position, so he would not be completely ignorant of what Duan Weihong can say.

Zhou Weimin couldn't help but laugh and tease him when he heard him say that: "There's still a long way to go in the future, we can still break up. It's funny to say that, during the New Year, we thought that we would have plenty of opportunities to drink together in the future, but we haven't had a chance to drink together many times. When we talk about the future, we only think about drinking."

"You're like this and you still call me poor. Where are you riding to? You've turned the corner."

"You have to buy some snacks and two bottles of good wine. If you don't do it yourself, I won't come to your house next time."
