Rebirth in 1960, My Industrial Age

Chapter 305 Major Breakthrough, Change of Welfare (Subscription Request)

"Senior Lihui, today we will update the website of the Finance Bureau of Sijiu City. I will leave it to you, along with Seniors Bowen and Lizhe.

Update their leadership photos on the website, and I'll get you a digital camera later."

Zhou Xianyang started to arrange tasks. Although there was less work recently, there was only one task of building a website a month, and he also increased the income of his seniors and classmates.

This greatly reduced his income, but he never had much desire for money. He had a lot of pocket money when he was a child, but out of loyalty, he gave it all to help his classmates.

Zhou Xianyang lost interest in money all of a sudden after earning more than 10,000 yuan. He was luckier than his father Zhou Fengnian. He had never lacked for anything since he was a child. When other people could not afford meat, he could eat roast duck and mutton hotpot twice a week.

After that, making money was so smooth again, and he earned 10,000 yuan in a few months, which made Zhou Xianyang a little confused. Although he was still making money and studying, he had no interest in these things anymore.

However, after talking with Zhou Fengnian that night, Zhou Xianyang suddenly found his goal again.

He accomplished what his father could not, which can be considered as surpassing Zhou Fengnian.

So even though Zhou Xianyang earns less money now, he is more generous than before; those who follow him not only receive an 80 yuan salary every month, but also receive a 3 yuan subsidy for a day when they go out.

There is also a random bonus at the end of the month, sometimes more, sometimes less, but the minimum is ten dollars.

Money is the best way to unite people. Now these sixteen people respect Zhou Xianyang more than before.

More than half of their families are in difficult financial situations, and the rest are also considered poor; but with Zhou Xianyang's bonus in one year, they are almost out of poverty.

"Okay, Xianyang, just leave it to us."

"Be careful with your digital camera. We only have this one, and now there's no place to repair it if it breaks."

Zhou Xianyang reminded that this thing was made by the Shenzhou Computer Factory specifically for building an external website, with technical guidance from Zhou Fengnian.

It can be considered as a batch that is speeding up. There are plans to build factories later, but the digital camera factory is still under construction, and there is no sign of personnel or factory.

If it breaks down, only the technical department of Shenzhou Computer Factory can repair it, and they may not have the time.

Yu Lihui said, "Don't worry, even if I break down, I won't let the camera break down."

Zhou Xianyang smiled and said, "I have contacted a website construction company these days. When this order is completed, we will go to a restaurant to celebrate.

My uncle is opening a new store. I will treat everyone to a meal and take one dish home with me.”

The other students all smiled after hearing this. They felt that they were lucky. Following Zhou Xianyang, not only could they eat delicious food every time, but they could also bring some back for their families.

At the robot R&D classroom center, Zhou Fengnian has already brought some information from the computer production workshop.

"Students, the information I am going to give you is confidential. You can read it by yourself, but you must not disclose it to anyone.

If the information is leaked, everyone will be held accountable, including me; and the assembly robots we are going to produce next must be designed for this production workshop.”

After saying that, Zhou Fengnian distributed the information about the computer production workshop.

“I’ll take you to the workshop some other day. Just looking at the materials is not enough;

Also, you already know your next task, according to this information, develop a manpower-saving assembly and handling robot, as well as a matching semi-automatic production line."

If qualified robots can be produced and mass-produced, it is estimated that production efficiency can be improved by one third, and more than 100 million US dollars in foreign exchange output value can be created.

Zhou Fengnian is still focusing on training students, providing them with various materials and conducting field investigations, which will take two months.

Two months later, regardless of success or failure, Zhou Fengnian will have to personally lead them to build the robot.

"lead."

While Zhou Fengnian was still teaching, Wang Mingjie suddenly knocked on the door and walked in, panting.

"Mingjie? Why are you here? What's the matter?"

Zhou Fengnian was stunned for a moment and asked, Wang Mingjie usually helped him deal with things in the department. If it was not particularly urgent, he would call the Tsinghua University office and ask the teachers here to tell him to answer the call.

This is the first time I come here directly.

"There is indeed something that requires you to go there in person."

After Wang Mingjie finished speaking, he leaned close to Zhou Fengnian's ear and whispered, "Shenzhou Computer Factory said that the fourth-generation machine is ready and has passed the test.

And there’s news from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs that Xiao Rizi has announced that he has developed a more powerful supercomputer, and Leader Gu has also asked you to go back.”

"Why are they all rushing together?"

Zhou Fengnian frowned slightly, nodded to Wang Mingjie, then turned to the students in the classroom and said, "Study on your own first, and lock up the materials in my office after reading them. Jianye, you take care of this.

I have to go out for something, and the class time tomorrow is to be determined, but you guys should study on your own for now."

After giving the instructions, Zhou Fengnian followed Wang Mingjie away. After finding out what was going on, he went to the Shenzhou Computer Factory first.

It is probably easy to guess what Gu Wenjie wanted to talk to him about, which was nothing more than the fourth-generation aircraft or the development of a supercomputer for daily life.

The fourth-generation aircraft is the most important now, but Zhou Fengnian is not too worried. He has been informed that the fourth-generation aircraft should be successfully manufactured.

After arriving at the Shenzhou Computer Factory, Zhou Fengnian went directly to the first production workshop. When he came over, there happened to be a person from the Technical Department standing at the door. After seeing Zhou Fengnian, he asked in surprise, "Leader Zhou?"

Zhou Fengnian asked, "Where's Old Yan? Is he inside?"

"Engineer Yan is inside, and he is testing the fourth-generation aircraft right now."

Yan Zhengzhi holds a special status in the factory. After retiring from the position of secretary, he no longer holds any position in the factory, but the four technical departments basically all listen to him, except that he is only in charge of the technical department.

Apart from supercomputers, Yan Zhengzhi doesn't take care of other things, and the factory leaders won't go out of their way to bother him.

"Okay, take me in."

"Okay, come this way."

Zhou Fengnian has been here many times, but the requirements inside are relatively high, so he has to prepare before entering.

After entering, Zhou Fengnian quickly saw a group of people surrounding the Shenzhou Son's fourth-generation supercomputer, led by Yan Zhengzhi.

Before Zhou Fengnian passed, the people surrounding the supercomputer cheered and started celebrating happily.

"Old Yan."

Zhou Fengnian shouted, and everyone turned around in surprise and said, "Leader Zhou, you're here."

"Leader, you came just in time. We just finished the test."

"Yes, we succeeded. The computing performance of the fourth-generation machine is the same as expected!"

Before Zhou Fengnian could ask, people around him reported the good news to him.

After Zhou Fengnian squeezed to the front, Yan Zhengzhi also said with a smile: "You came at the right time. We have just finished testing the computing performance of the fourth-generation machine, and the computing speed per second has exceeded one trillion!

Other aspects have not been tested yet, but there should be no problem." "Okay, very good, we have to celebrate today!"

Zhou Fengnian smiled and said, "All of you have made contributions. No one will be able to escape. The department will reward you!"

After hearing this, the technicians in the workshop smiled and said, "Leader, you have also made a contribution."

"Yes, yes, if it weren't for you taking the lead, how could we have manufactured it so quickly, two or three months ahead of schedule!"

"That's right, that's right!"

They are not flattering. The longer they work in the field of technology research and development, the more they know how valuable a leader is.

Especially people like Zhou Fengnian, who can almost always point out the absolutely correct research and development path, saving a lot of time.

When Zhou Fengnian was there, they felt that research and development was just like that; but when Zhou Fengnian left, they felt the difficulty.

"Alright, alright, stop praising me. Let me see the fourth-generation aircraft, and then we can prepare to celebrate."

Zhou Fengnian smiled and stopped the flattery from the people around him, then stepped forward to personally inspect the fourth-generation aircraft.

After some hands-on operation, Zhou Fengnian nodded involuntarily. It was almost the same as what he did in the simulation, and the sound was also very similar.

It shouldn't be a big problem, as they have indeed developed a groundbreaking supercomputer.

Yan Zhengzhi stepped forward and asked, "How is it? Is there any problem?"

"It's not a big problem. This computer is very useful, Old Yan."

Zhou Fengnian smiled and said that it can not only be used to build a supercomputer center, but also to accelerate research on the satellite and improve the progress of all national defense projects that require supercomputers.

The fourth-generation supercomputer, which can perform over a trillion operations, is more than ten times faster than the third-generation machine, which can perform 80 billion operations.

It can be said that there is a huge difference. Amei and Xiaorizi will not be able to develop such a powerful supercomputer even if they spend another ten years.

Yan Zhengzhi took a long breath and then said, "Finally it succeeded. Now I can retire with peace of mind."

Zhou Fengnian said quickly: "Hey, Old Yan, what are you talking about? This is only halfway done. We will definitely produce two or three fourth-generation aircraft next. You have to help keep an eye on them."

"You want me to oversee production too? You really don't want me to retire. I'm almost 66."

Yan Zhengzhi said angrily that after monitoring the production, it might be delayed to the research and development, and by then the fifth-generation aircraft project would be launched again.

It would be fine if he was full of energy, but recently he really feels his body aging.

I over-spent when I was young, and even if I take the medicine prescribed by Zhou Fengnian now, it can't make up for it.

There is no end to the research and development of supercomputers. As long as foreign countries do not give up on surpassing them, they cannot rest.

They can only feel a little relieved if the scientific research capabilities of foreigners are completely discounted.

Zhou Fengnian said quickly: "If you trust me this time, I will definitely not bother you again after the production is completed; the tedious work of the fourth-generation aircraft must be supervised by someone, and I don't trust anyone else except you."

The latter sentence was spoken in a very low voice, and only Yan Zhengzhi could hear it.

But Yan Zhengzhi was persuaded. After thinking for a while, he nodded and said to Zhou Fengnian: "In the middle of next year."

"It's only been a few months, the end of next year!"

Yan Zhengzhi glared and said, "Why don't you just let me live in the Shenzhou Computer Factory until the end of next year, or I'll end up in the hospital!"

"Okay, I'll personally handle your retirement procedures when the time comes. I'm sorry to bother you during this time, Old Yan."

Zhou Fengnian smiled and said that it was great that he could work for another year; what he said just now was half true and half false, but he was really worried.

For such an important project, without a big shot in charge, Zhou Fengnian would definitely have to make several trips frequently, which would waste his time.

Next year he will manufacture an industrial robot, which means he will have helped his students to half-graduate, and by then Zhou Fengnian will have a lot more free time.

After talking with Yan Zhengzhi for a while, the factory director and secretary also rushed to the workshop, and Zhou Fengnian just walked out at this time.

When Zhou Fengnian saw Liang Yongsheng and Director Ge, he smiled and said to them, "Director Liang, Secretary Ge, the factory has made another major breakthrough. You have to celebrate for the factory."

On the way here, Director Liang also learned that the fourth-generation aircraft had been successfully manufactured, and the smile on his face never stopped.

After hearing Zhou Fengnian's words, he immediately said, "Don't worry, leader. We will have a meeting and try to arrange a dinner party within ten days!"

There are too many workers in the Shenzhou Computer Factory. It is not easy to have a dinner together now. Materials have to be purchased in large quantities, and cooks have to be hired from outside.

"Okay, I'll leave this matter to you. The department will also reward you when the time comes, and those who have made contributions this time will be remembered."

Before Zhou Fengnian finished speaking, a technician next to him suddenly said, "Leader, can the reward be exchanged for housing?"

"Ok?"

Zhou Fengnian looked back and found that it was Xie Wencheng who spoke. He remembered this man, a level 12 technician. He had been with him for a long time, and had been with him for seven years after graduating from university.

"Wencheng, you haven't been assigned a room yet? I remember that your conditions meet the requirements for a room, right?"

There are five people in the family, Xie Wencheng has two younger brothers and sisters, and he and his father are the only ones working.

Zhou Fengnian was very familiar with the capable people under his command, after all, many of them were selected by him personally.

Liang Yongsheng saw Zhou Fengnian's eyes on him, and immediately leaned over to whisper in his ear: "Leader, you know the last list, Technician Xie did not apply, this time there are more people applying, but Technician Xie's family salary is higher"

"The salary is high but it can't be converted into money. The people in the Technical Section 1 have indeed made great contributions this time. Let's put it this way. Those in the Technical Section 1 who meet the housing allocation conditions can be given priority in housing allocation."

Zhou Fengnian spoke up, as a guarantee for people like Xie Wencheng; they could have applied for separate housing last time, but they probably didn't apply because they wanted to show their spirit.

If it wasn't really necessary this time, I wouldn't have told him in front of so many people.

"The performance of the Shenzhou Computer Factory has gradually improved. This is all thanks to the efforts of all the workers in the factory and you. It seems that allocating housing every five years cannot satisfy everyone.

It has been changed to one house every three years. I will convince other leaders when I return. Director Liang, please make an announcement. Comrades who didn’t get a house this time should not worry. I promise that everyone will live in a tube-shaped building! "

"Thank you, leader!"

"Leadership Ten Thousand"

"Hey, I told you not to say that, not even if you're happy!"

"I'm sorry, I'm so excited. Thank you, Leader Zhou."

When the people around heard Zhou Fengnian's words, they immediately cheered excitedly.

They can be given priority in housing allocation, and the housing allocation every five years is changed to every three years. What a good leader!
