Rebirth in 1960, My Industrial Age

Chapter 33: Career after the New Year

"Although the factory construction is still under discussion, it has basically been confirmed. It should be near the machinery factory and may be completed in a while."

Luo Cheng revealed this not-so-secret secret, because the most important factor in building the factory was the induction cooker promoted by Zhou Fengnian.

Three functional and practical products are enough to build six workshops to produce and earn foreign exchange. It is no longer possible to stay in the machinery factory.

The machinery factory has its own tasks, which include manufacturing machinery, military parts, etc. The new workshop was built to complete the orders from the Russians. After the completion, the pressure will be temporarily relieved and a new factory will be built.

The new factory will tentatively have six workshops and 900 employees. It is considered a small or medium-sized electrical appliance factory, but it has great potential and can generate a lot of foreign exchange.

The Russian orders are one thing, and these three products can also be taken to the Canton Fair and exported to other countries.

The main products of this factory are almost all made by Zhou Fengnian himself, so his stay or departure is very important.

"You are likely to be transferred to the new factory as the head of the technical department, responsible for the research and development of new technologies and industrial technical guidance. Although this matter has not been finalized, you are the most suitable candidate."

Zhou Fengnian asked: "Technical Section Chief? What level is the section chief of this small factory?"

Luo Cheng thought for a moment and said, "It should be the salary of an 18th-level deputy section chief, 87.5 yuan. What? Are you short of money?"

"Just asking, that doesn't seem high. This is the salary I get when I become a level 10 technician. I'm not interested."

Zhou Fengnian shook his head. He had already done enough work as a technical instructor.

If I have to describe my feelings, it can probably be summed up in three words: tired, tired, tired!

He is needed in many places, such as training, machine maintenance, safety regulations, etc. If Zhou Fengnian had not been in surprisingly good health after the time travel, he would have collapsed if he had continued like this.

Before the Chinese New Year, Bai Kangdu's face was pale and his eyes were bloodshot from staying up all night.

“I’d better continue to be a technician. I feel that becoming a level 10 technician is not difficult.

In two years' time, I will take the examination for the grading of the ministry, and I may be able to pass the examination for the 18th or th grade engineer, and the salary will be much higher than that of the th grade deputy section chief."

Zhou Fengnian refused, saying that the usual factory recommendation exams can only lead to promotions one level at a time.

Only for technical grade examinations organized by ministries and commissions can one choose the examination level by oneself, which means that one can skip grades.

The next ministerial examination is less than two years away, and by then Zhou Fengnian can directly choose to take the engineer exam.

It is difficult to be promoted to the deputy section level, but the technical level test is very easy for Zhou Fengnian; and if he passes the sixth-level engineer test, he can automatically be transferred to the deputy position of the technical department of the factory.

The most important thing is that Zhou Fengnian is very confident about the technical level test. He inherited the memory of his original body and is already at the level of a sixth or seventh level engineer.

With the [Proficiency Simulation] system, it feels easy to pass the third and fourth level engineer exams. However, above level four, you have to be a chief engineer, specifically responsible for a national plan project.

"So you value money so much, how vulgar."

"This is called working and making money at the same time, Mr. Luo, you already have children and grandchildren, so of course you don't care so much; but I'm going to get married soon, and now I haven't even bought a place to live."

Zhou Fengnian suddenly turned his head and asked, "By the way, Mr. Luo, is there any news on the matter I asked you to do last time? It would be nice if we could buy a courtyard house nearby, either one with one entrance or two."

".Don't worry, I'm already asking."

Luo Cheng took a sip of the teacup with a guilty conscience: "Don't worry, I will definitely help you find out. I'm busy lately."

"If you want to go on a blind date, I'll lend you my backyard. Just bring your date here. By the way, Xiao Zhou, do you have a crush on someone?" "Not yet. My family is pushing me hard, and my sister is almost old enough to find someone."

"Well, you are indeed not small anymore."

After Luo Cheng changed the subject, they continued the conversation and even asked what kind of people Zhou Fengnian liked.

Zhou Fengnian naturally likes beautiful women, preferably those who are both beautiful and virtuous, and preferably those who are as beautiful as movie actors. However, after he said this, Luo Cheng laughed and scolded him for being greedy.

If you want to find one like this, you have to choose carefully even in the dance troupe, because their machinery factory doesn't have it yet.

The slightly nicer ones in the machinery factory are all in the Propaganda Department, the Radio Station and the Art and Literature Propaganda Office. If you want to find one nearby, you can only go to the Propaganda Department.

Otherwise there are blind dates organized by several factories, and then there are introductions by matchmakers, but I'm afraid you won't be able to pick anyone good-looking in the latter two.

Even if there are beautiful ones occasionally, they are still pursued by many people. Maybe they have some flaws, otherwise they would not participate in such large-scale blind date events.

Zhou Fengnian learned a lot about blind dates from Luo Cheng, which made him feel excited. He wanted to go to blind date meetings and ice skating rinks, which were the holy places for meeting prostitutes.

However, Luo Cheng specifically warned Zhou Fengnian not to date lesbians casually. If the lesbians didn't mind, it would be fine. But if they did, he would call the police and have him detained for a few days.

For less serious cases, we will notify the street office to take someone back to reflect on their actions.

But Zhou Fengnian didn't think it was a big deal. His looks were not one in a million, but they definitely wouldn't make people feel disgusted. However, Zhou Fengnian didn't plan to take pictures of the mother-in-law, but Luo Cheng brought up the matter of taking pictures of the mother-in-law.

During this time, Li Nianhua came into the room to change the tea and heard Luo Cheng telling Zhou Fengnian about the matter of beating the mother-in-law. She was immediately angry and said that Luo Cheng was an old man.

Luo Cheng was so upset that he skipped the matter of beating the mother-in-law and started talking about machine tools with Zhou Fengnian.

Zhou Fengnian revealed to Luo Cheng that he had already figured out how to improve the vacuum tube control system and that the results would be available soon.

In fact, when Zhou Fengnian went home for the New Year, he found an opportunity to use the simulation time. With the help of the simulation space, he has compiled a detailed transistor and integrated circuit technology.

These two technologies were also used to invent CNC machine tools.

The CNC machine tool that Zhou Fengnian tried to make in the simulated space can actually be made in reality because he used the materials and technical environment of this era.

However, the CNC machine tools they have produced are more than 20 years ahead of others. If foreigners want to surpass this technology, they will have to study it for at least 30 years before they can surpass it steadily.

This is only possible if the domestic development stops and foreign countries work hard to catch up.

However, it is impossible for leaders to ignore the benefits of CNC machine tools, and they will surely work hard to develop them when the time comes.

Zhou Fengnian revealed a little bit of his technique, which made Luo Cheng feel itchy, but at the same time he kept hooking him without letting him speak, thinking about what to do next.

After three months of trials and tests, the new workshop has gradually gotten on track.

Even apprentices who have just entered the factory have become skilled workers after three months of overtime work.

If you keep doing the same job for three months and still become unskilled, you can transfer to another workshop.

Zhou Fengnian’s job now is to maintain the machinery in the workshop. The workload has suddenly decreased a lot, and he has more time to study CNC machine tool technology.
