Rebirth in 1960, My Industrial Age

Chapter 209: Counter-Frame-up (Subscription Request)
The construction of the new factory went smoothly and construction started on the first day after the New Year.

The ministry mobilized several construction teams to start construction on the semi-abandoned site. If work progresses quickly, it is expected that a new factory can be built within three months.

Most other factories feel that they have too many workers and want to reduce their workforce. Only a few factories with good performance will recruit a small number of workers.

For companies like the Hua Xia Machine Tool Factory and the First Machine Tool Factory, the demand for CNC machine tools is so huge, both at home and abroad. The Foreign Trade Department seems to want to monopolize the entire market of brother countries in the same camp in Eastern Europe, and orders come one after another.

The Huaxia Machine Tool Factory didn't want to feed the farmers full, so it had to share some with the First Machine Tool Factory, otherwise they really wouldn't be able to finish production.

The steel rolling mills also have good profits. After improving the steelmaking and rolling processes, the steel they produce can be considered as the fine steel of this era, and this kind of steel is needed in many places.

The Ministry of Metallurgy alone has a lot of tasks assigned to it, requiring workers to be busy from the beginning of the year to the end of the year, so it is impossible to streamline the workforce.

However, recruiting workers is not possible as they already have plenty of manpower. The steel mill is now converting the former processing workshop into a steel rolling workshop, and it also needs to transfer workers with other factories.

Zhou Fengnian is the only trustworthy person who can build a new factory and ensure its efficiency at this time.

The products developed and produced by the electronic computer factory cannot be exported because the technology is so advanced that it needs to be kept confidential.

It's not that it has no value at all, but rather that its value is too high to be exported. Otherwise, personal computers alone might have attracted a large number of foreigners.

During the construction of the factory, Zhou Fengnian and his team were also engaged in research and development and manufacturing in the integrated circuit workshop.

The manufacturing of the projection lithography machine went very smoothly. After all, they had just built one a few years ago and they were all impressed. Now there was no shortage of equipment and instruments, so they just needed to manufacture another one.

The machine at the Computer Research Institute had been reported by that group of people as an achievement. As expected, the names of most of the contributors were concealed.

Although Zhou Fengnian's name was on the list, most of his roles were erased, and he almost went from being a leader to a participant.

Moreover, the report was brought by Deputy Leader Li, who showed it to Zhou Fengnian, who said that he was just like those who had taken credit for things in the past.

After reading the report, other people in the new factory's technical department expressed their indignation for Zhou Fengnian, but were suppressed by Zhou Fengnian.

People like that will only be proud for a short while, but when their true colors are revealed, they will die faster than anyone else.

Zhou Fengnian ignored them and continued to devote all his energy to research and development.

Now he not only had to figure out how to manufacture the microprocessor for personal computers, but also had to develop and manufacture a graphical operating system.

Lower the threshold for computer use. Otherwise, it will take a long time just to learn how to use a computer, and it will not be possible to promote it in the offices of various departments.

Now, whenever Zhou Fengnian has extra simulation space times, he will use them to brush up his computer-related skills. Now his computer skill level has caught up with mechanical design and manufacturing.

It will soon surpass this ability and become the number one ability in his list of abilities.

Boom boom boom!
A rapid knock on the door interrupted Zhou Fengnian's research and development ideas. Before he could speak, Pan Heng pushed the door open and said anxiously:
"Leader, someone is coming from outside to check on those in the integrated circuit workshop. He is calling for someone by name."

Before Pan Heng could finish his words, Zhou Fengnian's office door was pushed open forcefully, and five people with unfriendly faces walked in.

The leader said to Zhou Fengnian, "Comrade Zhou Fengnian, we suspect you are against the movement. Please follow us for investigation."

Pan Heng immediately stopped him and said, "Wait, our factory director hasn't spoken yet, you can't take people away."

"You, the factory director, have no right to stop our investigation. If you continue to stop us, you will be opposing the organization."

At this time Zhou Fengnian said: "What kind of opposition movement? Even if you arrest people, you have to have evidence, right? You start slandering people as soon as you open your mouth, who wouldn't do that?
In my office, there are three confidential technologies recorded in the First Ministry of Machine Building, and the one currently under research is also a key national confidential technology. Even the director or secretary of the factory has to knock on the door before coming in."

"How could you just barge in? I think you are not trying to arrest me, but are trying to steal the confidential technology!"

After Zhou Fengnian finished speaking, he said to Pan Heng: "Notify the security department immediately. There are enemy spies pretending to be members of the organization to steal state secret technology!"

"You are talking nonsense. We are not enemy agents. We are legitimate members of the organization!"

Another person shouted anxiously, saying that being labeled as enemy spies would be uncomfortable for them; the sports team was not a monolithic entity and there were many disputes within it.

"Nonsense? There's already an order from above that confidential factories can't have anything to do with people like you. Don't you know that Huaxia Machine Tool Factory is a confidential factory?

You guys are so well connected that you can come in whenever I say so. But don’t be impatient, I will find out who is behind you today!"

Zhou Fengnian said sternly that he was really annoyed by these people. He wanted to concentrate on his research, but he was always disturbed.

As for who asked him to come, Zhou Fengnian didn't even need to think about it, he knew it was the people from the Computer Research Institute.

The Huaxia Machine Tool Factory was very secretive about transferring Zhong Xingling and others here, and there was no special investigation. How could they have found out so quickly?

After hearing Zhou Fengnian's words, several people felt a little scared, but the leader said fiercely: "Catch him and take him back for interrogation to find out who is resisting the organization."

"Leader, we are here!"

Before they could make any move, Pan Heng arrived with the security department; when Zhou Fengnian asked him to find someone, Pan Heng immediately made a phone call quietly. The security department heard the enemy spies and gathered and ran over in less than two minutes.

After the security captain entered the room with a gun, he found that Zhou Fengnian was not injured. He was relieved and asked, "Mr. Zhou, are they them?"

"Yes, take them away. They just tried to steal my confidential technical information and tore up part of it."

When Zhou Fengnian said this, he tore off a piece of information document that had just been written in front of the five of them, and continued, "This is the evidence!"

"You fucking bastard, you just tore that off!" One of the five people couldn't help but curse. This shameless bastard was even better at framing them than them, and he didn't even try to hide it in front of them.

"I tore it off? Do you have the final say or I have the final say? Pan Heng, who tore it off?"

Pan Heng adjusted his glasses and said without hesitation: "They tore it. Leader, you had an argument with them in order to protect the information."

Zhou Fengnian looked at the captain of the security department again and asked, "Captain Wang, did you see it?"

Captain Wang took a deep breath and then said in a deep voice: "I arrived late, but I did see them taking action."

"You guys should get together!"

"Catch them for me!"

At Captain Wang's command, the other members of the security department went forward without hesitation, handcuffed the men and handcuffed them all.

They did not dare to resist because Captain Wang was still holding a gun. They had only become sports soldiers in the past two years and were no match for these formal armed forces personnel.

"You are a den of bandits! I'm going to report you to the leader!"

After being arrested, the leader of the five couldn't help but curse angrily, but he was more afraid in his heart; if this hat was put on him, he would be finished.

At this time, Gao Zhiyuan, Kang Hongnian and others also heard the noise and rushed over. After entering the house and taking a look at the situation, Gao Zhiyuan asked, "Fengnian, what's going on?"

Zhou Fengnian did not answer immediately. He first said to the security department: "Captain Wang, take them away first. I suggest you check who is on guard today and why the security of the confidential factory is so lax."

"Yes, Mr. Zhou, I will report this to the section chief when I return and investigate this matter."

After Captain Wang finished speaking, he asked someone to take the group away.

After Captain Wang left, Zhou Fengnian said to Gao Zhiyuan, Kang Hongnian and others: "Director, Secretary, they are here to investigate those people in the integrated circuit workshop. I have no choice but to lock them up first.
Fortunately, they were not very careful in their actions, so they suffered a loss this time; it’s just a pity that I have to rewrite the information I just compiled.”

After hearing this, Kang Hongnian frowned and asked, "How did this group of people get in? There are orders from above that confidential and key project factories are not allowed to participate in such things."

Gao Zhiyuan also said in a bad tone: "We must investigate. I will talk to Deputy Section Chief Chang later. Can it be considered a confidential factory if the guards are so lax?"

"But in a good year, they will definitely not give up."

Zhou Fengnian asked, "Director, have you completed the formalities?"

"It has been repaired. If they investigate through normal channels, there will be no problems."

During a survey of workers in the factory, it was found that the front-line workers wanted to eat some chili peppers, but the logistics department could not buy them, so they suggested that the factory open up a piece of land.

However, it would not be possible to let the factory's own people do the work as production could not be delayed, so the factory applied for help from the communes around Sijiu City. Finally, Sanshui Commune supported a group of people who needed work and correction.

Everything is reasonable and compliant, who can find fault?
After finishing their farm work, we take them to the workshop to use their special skills, which can be considered a kind of transformation.

Zhou Fengnian said, "As long as the formalities are complete, the rest is to sue each other. I'll call Deputy Leader Li. I'm going to trouble the leader again."

Secretary Kang and Director Gao both nodded. When it came to these people, it was indeed beyond the ability of just the director and the secretary to handle the problem. It was already very good that they could keep the factory focused on production.

After the two of them left, Wang Jinghui did not leave immediately. Instead, he came forward and whispered to Zhou Fengnian: "Mr. Zhou, if you need any help, just ask. I will ask District Chief Wang for you."

Zhou Fengnian turned his head and glanced at Wang Jinghui, then said with a smile: "Thank you very much, Brother Wang."

"Hey, Mr. Zhou, you're too polite."

Wang Jinghui immediately smiled and said that it was their family’s decision to make friends with Zhou Fengnian, and now is the right time.

After everyone left, Zhou Fengnian called Deputy Leader Li and told him what had happened today.

Including his frame-up that was full of loopholes. It would be fine to just say it in front of others, but he had to tell the truth to Deputy Leader Li, otherwise it would be difficult for him to give any advice.

"you boy"

After Deputy Leader Li finished listening to and said this, the line fell silent for a long time.

After a while, he said, "Don't worry about this. Let Xiao Gao send all the documents over. I will communicate with them later.
But don't use such rough methods next time, the Security Department is not your assistant."

Zhou Fengnian immediately said: "Okay, leader, I understand. I'm sorry to have caused you trouble this time."

"It's not a big deal, but your factory's security department really needs to be reorganized. Don't let Xiao Gao send someone to deliver it. Ask him to come in person. I have something to say to him."

"I understand. I'll tell Director Gao right away."

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Fengnian got up and went to find Gao Zhiyuan and conveyed Deputy Leader Li's order to Gao Zhiyuan.

After hearing this, the latter's mood suddenly became bad, and he asked worriedly: "Brother Zhou, is the leader scolding me?"

"It shouldn't be. It's related to the Security Department. They are from the Armed Forces Department. We have always had very little control over them. This is probably what I'm talking to you about."

Zhou Fengnian curled his lips and said, "Five people came in so arrogantly. Did any of us receive a call from the security guard? If you don't know, you might think we were standing guard for them."
