Rebirth in 1960, My Industrial Age

Chapter 187 First day report, father-in-law comes to see (please subscribe)
Early Monday morning, after breakfast, Zhou Fengnian packed his clothes and briefcase and prepared to go to work.

At this time, Zhou Yan came over, helped Zhou Fengnian straighten his collar with a smile, and said softly: "Don't get too tired when you go to the new unit, and remember to eat on time."

"Of course, even a fool knows to eat on time when you're hungry, but you should also be careful at work and stop rushing to get ahead of others."

Zhou Fengnian reminded his wife that she was worried that others would say she was "Zhou Fengnian's lover", so she worked very hard and was always busy even when she was sitting in the office.

If Zhou Yan hadn't remembered to get off work on time, he would have been really worried that something might happen to the child.

"Now even if I want to go to the front line to solve women's problems, Sister Zhang won't let me do it."

Zhou Yan consoled him, "The Women's Federation is not short of people. Now I rarely even leave the office for activities."

Zhou Fengnian said, "That's fine. From today on, I may be back very late at night. You and Fifth Sister can have dinner first. You don't have to wait for me to come back."

The factory gets off work very early, but for the project team in the research institute, nine or ten o'clock is considered early, which is somewhat inconsistent with Zhou Fengnian's lazy attitude.

He usually lets himself relax and rest for a while after producing a result in his research, but he's afraid that's not possible now.

After saying goodbye to his family, Zhou Fengnian took a bus to the Computer Research Institute; the Institute of Microelectronics was also nearby. After all, the project team involved people from two institutes, so it had to be convenient for them to travel back and forth.

After Zhou Fengnian reported for duty, he was quickly taken to the project team by Director Yan.

On Saturday, he just came to go through the entry procedures, met some people, and got to know the environment, equipment, and so on.

Today he will meet with the entire project team and announce his position as deputy team leader.

Director Yan led Zhou Fengnian to the project team and introduced them, "Team Leader Zhou, our project team has a total of 74 people. If there is a subsequent demand for manpower, you can submit a report to apply for transfer.

In addition to manpower, there are 12 factories that can provide production support. These are electronic factories that produce various electronic components."

"That's enough, Director Yan. To be honest, when I was working at the machine tool factory, I had to ask my supervisor for some experimental materials several times."

Zhou Fengnian said with some emotion that he had conducted several experiments in the simulated space at that time to ensure that the manufacturing was completed in one go in the real world.

Otherwise, it would be very difficult to apply again after failing once.

"Haha, you don't need that here. You are the deputy team leader of the project team. You can directly submit a report to apply for the required resources. If nothing goes wrong, it will be approved."

After Director Yan finished speaking, he took Zhou Fengnian to a house. After pushing the door open, he saw that almost all the other members of the project team had arrived.

After standing on the stage, Director Yan knocked on the table twice and said to the crowd: "Comrades, some of you may already know the person next to me.

Let me introduce him to you. He is Zhou Fengnian, the deputy leader of our project team and a new member of the Department of Technical Sciences. "

"By the way, the medium-scale integrated chips and medium-scale integrated computer technologies that you studied a few days ago were developed by Team Leader Zhou Fengnian."

Clap clap clap!

After hearing this, the people in the room immediately applauded and welcomed Zhou Fengnian.

Some people were shocked when they saw Zhou Fengnian's age, but Director Yan would not lie, and his identity as a faculty member could not be faked.

I can only say that Zhou Fengnian is really capable. But why haven't I heard of this person before? It seems that there is no such person in any university.

Zhou Fengnian took in the expressions of the crowd. If they knew that he was a technical secondary school graduate who studied mechanical maintenance and design, they would not be shocked, but at least they would discuss the topic in shock for a while.

"Everyone, I'm Zhou Fengnian. We're going to work together for development. On the way here, I also heard Director Yan introduce the project team and learned about our mission."

After Director Yan, Zhou Fengnian stepped forward and said, "We can split our tasks. One group will study and improve the photolithography process; the other group will apply medium-scale integrated computer technology to microcomputer applications after becoming familiar with it.
I am in charge of both groups. I want to make it clear in advance that you can question me privately, but you must listen to me on the general direction. "

Zhou Fengnian was not modest or polite here. He developed more advanced technology in the simulation space, and his understanding of the future made Zhou Fengnian know that this was the right path.

So there is no need to discuss it together, just listen to him.

Zhou Fengnian has used up all the simulation times at home these days, and has made significant breakthroughs in photolithography process technology and large-scale integrated computer technology.

Next, he would slowly explain the technical principles, allowing them to understand them thoroughly and apply them in manufacturing; by the way, he would also manufacture a few "microcomputers" that could be used in missiles and satellites.

“This is what I sorted out these few days, please take a look first.”

Zhou Fengnian copied the results he had produced in the simulation space over the past few days several times, and then distributed them one by one.

They have just been divided into two groups according to the projects they are responsible for, so it is convenient for Zhou Fengnian to arrange the work.

The lithography technology in foreign countries has only been in use for a short time. It is indeed more advanced than theirs, but the degree of advancement is extremely limited.

Zhou Fengnian’s plan is to catch up in three years, overtake in three years, and then accumulate for a period of time, so that he can use higher-level technology to dump chips in large quantities.

Other members of the project team originally had complaints about Zhou Fengnian's "dominance". Many of them believed that the truth was discovered through discussion, not through hegemony and tyranny.

However, after seeing the detailed explanation of the technical principles of the development of photolithography technology posted by Hei Zhou Fengnian, as a relevant technical personnel, I quickly realized that this was not nonsense.

Only those who have a deep understanding of technical principles can make such a summary.

After each of them received a copy, Zhou Fengnian began to explain it and also planned the future project schedule.

As a lucky man, Zhou Fengnian has control over the correct direction and advanced technology, which ensures that the project team will not encounter detours or get stuck when developing new technologies.

Director Yan on the side was also listening very carefully. There was also a special recorder next to him who was ready to write down everything Zhou Fengnian said.

If these are summarized and organized, they will become a very good teaching material. Every university graduate who reports to the institute in the future can start learning from here.

"Team Leader Zhou, how about eating first?"

When Zhou Fengnian stopped to drink water, Director Yan quickly raised his hand and said; it was only because he paid attention to the time, otherwise lunch time would have passed.

"Hey, it's almost one o'clock. I didn't pay attention for a while. Let's go eat first. We can arrange the afternoon matters after dinner."

After Zhou Fengnian made the announcement, he was about to go to the cafeteria, but he suddenly remembered that he seemed to have not brought his lunch box or meal ticket.

However, Director Yan came over and said, "Team Leader Zhou, your lunch box and meal ticket have been collected. I said I would take you there in the morning, but I forgot about it later, haha."

"Thank you, Director Yan. Otherwise, I would have been late for lunch."

After Zhou Fengnian took the lunch box and meal ticket, he followed Director Yan to the cafeteria.

At that time, subsidies for technicians were still very good. Even in the northwest where supplies were scarce, subsidies for technicians and scientists were given priority. I ordered a half-meat dish and a vegetarian dish in the cafeteria and ate them with a two-grain steamed bun.

Not to mention, the Computer Research Institute also has a chef who makes great meals.

After dinner, Zhou Fengnian sat at the same table with Director Yan, and they discussed the next plans while eating.

Before Zhou Fengnian came, the task was quite tight; but now with complete medium-scale integrated chips and computer technology, we can just copy and manufacture them.

The fifteen-month planned task was suddenly compressed into four months, which was equivalent to when they had just started the project and Zhou Fengnian came over and patted his chest and said that he had accomplished it.

It was precisely because of this that Director Yan insisted that Zhou Fengnian join the project team; he alone was worth the entire team.

".Team Leader Zhou, the development direction and plan you talked about this morning were so clear that I even felt we could complete it ahead of schedule."

When they were returning from dinner, Director Yan said to Zhou Fengnian: "It's a good thing you came, otherwise we would have to take so many detours."

"Director Yan, that's not the case. You're going too far."

Zhou Fengnian waved his hands quickly and said that he should be humble when he should be humble and not agree to everything. Then he continued

"The project team has so much support, so I don't have to rush any further. I'll complete the previous mission requirements first, and then develop large-scale integrated computers. But you have to order this, and my focus will be on group one."

"Okay, don't worry. With the technical theories you have compiled, we will be embarrassed if you don't produce some results."

Director Yan nodded, and couldn't help but sighed: "But Team Leader Zhou, you really know a lot. I remember that you are also very good at mechanical design. From this point of view, you are proficient in three subjects."

Semiconductor, computer and mechanical design and manufacturing.

It is difficult for ordinary people to master one thing in their lifetime. Zhou Fengnian is only 25 years old, but he has achieved so many things in three areas.

"Well, I like to read books when I have nothing to do, and I can memorize a book completely after reading it once. But I didn't have the conditions to do so before. It wasn't until I came to the city to attend a technical secondary school that I was exposed to more books."

Zhou Fengnian told a lie, but it wasn't really a lie, he really liked reading and he had a photographic memory.

He is proficient in more than just these three subjects. In the current proficiency simulation system panel, there are four level eight skills, among which mechanical design and manufacturing is the highest and will soon reach level nine.

There are six level seven skills, three level six skills, and nearly two hundred skills below level five.

If Zhou Fengnian had the experience to upgrade all these skills to level six or above, it would not be an exaggeration to call him a little all-rounder.

The night was pitch black, and around ten o'clock, a car slowly drove up to the gate of the compound at the intersection of Nanluoguxiang Street.

After Zhou Fengnian got out of the car, he waved to Zhao Qiang and told him to go back and rest, and then planned to go home.

However, after pushing the door twice, it didn't open. Zhou Fengnian suddenly thought that it was so late and everyone in the family must be asleep.

But the door was locked from the inside, so Zhou Fengnian had no choice but to knock on it, while secretly thinking in his heart that he had to install a key lock inside.

After a while, Zhou Fengnian heard the voice of the little girl in the courtyard: "Who is it?"

"I, little sister, open the door for you."

"Brother? You're back. Wait for me."

Soon the small door was opened, and Zhou Fengnian said embarrassedly after entering: "I came back a little late today, little sister, you should go to bed."

Zhou Xiaomei said, "It's okay, brother. I haven't gone to school yet. I won't be late if I sleep a little later tomorrow morning. Besides, my sister-in-law told me about it."

"I'll think of a way to change the name, you go to sleep."

After Zhou Fengnian finished speaking, he went back to the backyard. At this time, the lights in the main house were turned on, and Zhou Fengnian knew that he had woken up Zhou Yan as well.

When Zhou Fengnian returned to the room to put his briefcase away, he quickly said to Zhou Yan who was about to get up: "You lie down, I'll go wash up and be back soon."

After saying that, Zhou Fengnian went to the yard to wash up as quickly as possible. Fortunately, it was summer, otherwise he would have to boil water.

When Zhou Fengnian returned to the room, he turned off the lights and then got into bed with Zhou Yan.

Zhou Yan immediately hugged him and asked, "Why are you so late?"

"On the first day, I was overwhelmed by the enthusiastic questions from the team members and wasted some time. I won't do that tomorrow."

Zhou Fengnian thought for a moment and said, "I'll find a way to put an inner door handle lock on the front door on Sunday."

However, he seemed to have never seen a handle lock. Most of them were left at home or padlocked. If there was one, Zhou Fengnian would find someone to make one. The structure was not very difficult.

"By the way, Dad and Zhou Kai came here today and brought some things."

Zhou Yan suddenly remembered this incident, and then said with a bit of resentment: "Dad said that Zhou Kai has found a job, and he also said that he plans to get married after the blind date.
I was wondering how Zhou Kai had money to buy cakes when he came to apologize last time. It turns out he had a job at that time. "

Zhou Fengnian said calmly: "Got a job? Who found it for him? My father-in-law is quite capable."

"You're still pretending that it has nothing to do with you, but don't I know what my father is like?"

Zhou Yan was so angry that she pinched Zhou Fengnian twice, then sighed and said, "Xianyang is already over one year old, and Zhou Kai apologized to me last time, so I don't want to bother about what happened before.

But don't hide this kind of thing from me in the future!"

Zhou Fengnian said with a smile: "Okay, okay, I'm not happy with you, maybe my father-in-law used my name. Go to bed early and don't think about it."

"So do you think I should go when he gets married?"

Zhou Fengnian said casually: "It's up to you. If you want to go, go. If you don't want to go, just say that you can't move around, and I can go on your behalf."

"Then I'll go, and I'll go with you. Dad was so humble today for Zhou Kai, he never did that for me before."

Zhou Yan was still a little angry, but she was almost a mother of two children and didn't want to keep hating the past.

But it will be impossible for me to help her family unconditionally in the future, as the things at home will be left to her children.

Before Zhou Yan fell asleep, she kept thinking about this matter.
