Rebirth in 1960, My Industrial Age

Chapter 341 Go to see Director Qian

There are signs of the fourth generation of the Zhou family!
Strictly speaking, Zhou Fugui is the first generation of the Zhou family. Apart from Zhou Fugui, no one else has any impression of the others. Even Zhou's father doesn't know his father's name.

At least Zhou Fengnian and Zhou Weitian brothers didn't remember much about their grandfather, they just knew that he was killed by the Japanese.

Even if we were to compile the family tree, we would start with Zhou Fugui.

Originally, Zhou Xianzhe and Zhou Xianrui, the oldest, should have had children first, but they were busy with their business and had no intention of getting married.

It was only recently that he came to his senses, and after asking Zhou Fengnian for help, he got married and obtained a marriage certificate.

Because Bai Qing'an was pregnant, Zhou Xianyang was able to move back to the cadre residential area openly. He reported to Zhou Yan in person, and after getting permission, he packed his luggage and moved back.

When he returned the next day, Zhou Xianyang shouted wildly as soon as he entered the door: "Dad, come and carry the luggage, don't tire your eldest grandson!"

The sound was so loud that even Zhou Yiyi and Zhou Linlin upstairs could hear it, not to mention Zhou Fengnian who was watching TV in the living room.

Zhou Fengnian stood up and frowned and asked, "What's wrong with you? Didn't you two go over to take care of the house? Why did you suddenly come back?"

"Why? Qing'an is pregnant. Mom asked us to come back."

Zhou Xianyang snorted and said, "I want to help your eldest grandson to rest. Dad, can you help me carry the luggage?"

"Bastard"

Zhou Fengnian pretended to come over and hit Zhou Xianyang, and he was so scared that he immediately hid behind Bai Qingan.

But Zhou Fengnian was just pretending. When he got closer, he put down his hand and asked, "Are you pregnant? Your mother didn't tell me after she came back."

"I thought you were in the study. I was just about to tell you about this. Why did you come downstairs to watch TV?"

Zhou Yan came down from upstairs and asked. As soon as she came back, she cleaned the house with the nanny and had her hands free.

"Just come back and stay here, Qing'an, and tell your mother about this, too."

Zhou Fengnian paused for a moment, then continued, "Just tell Master Yang what flavor you want to eat recently."

Bai Qingan's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he quickly asked, "Can I order whatever I want?"

Zhou Fengnian thought of Bai Qingan's love of eating and couldn't help but say, "Don't eat too much, or you'll be at death's door when you give birth. You should ask your health doctor about this."

He felt that the logistics department had arranged two apprentices for him, a chef and a health doctor, and he would have to ask them for advice when he had time.

Especially the health doctor, after learning that the Zhou family were taking health pills, he shamelessly asked for a few pills.

However, he was also sensible. After knowing that the health-preserving pills were a prescription prepared by Zhou Fengnian himself, he did not rush to ask for them.

And there is no way to prove that Zhou Fengnian's family is healthy, and it is related to the health pills. Maybe it is because of their good work and rest.
The health doctor became confused again when he thought of this. Other people might have a good schedule, but Zhou Fengnian was the ultimate late-night freak. No matter how much he was advised, he would not listen.

If Zhou Fengnian was not young and as strong as a young man, he would at least report the situation.

However, the health doctor still admired Zhou Fengnian's medical skills very much, and would consult him for one or two hours every time he examined him.

The health doctor's performance proved it, and Zhou Fengnian has been treating his family members for the past few years, so no one in his family disbelieves what he says.

Zhou Xianyang immediately decided to limit Bai Qingan’s food intake in the future. He had discovered that his wife had a huge appetite before.

However, Bai Qing'an was in the art troupe and exercised a lot every day, and his weight hadn't changed at all, so he didn't take it seriously.

Zhou Fengnian shook his head and went back to watch TV. It was rare that he had a light workload recently, but if he wanted to find something to do next, he would have to get busy.

There is nothing wrong with his son and daughter-in-law coming back to live with him. He just feels that his children have to grow up on their own and it is time for them to live outside, so he is kicking them out.

Not long after, Zhou Xianyang came over and after seeing the news on TV, he couldn't help but ask, "Dad, what's the next development?"

"What do you want to ask?"

"Hey, are you really going to tell me?"

Zhou Xianyang said with surprise: "I thought you were joking when you said that last time. You were so careful about your reputation before, I thought you were going to ignore us in the future."

"Nonsense, I don't care about you. As for paying money and pointing out directions?"

Zhou Fengnian glanced at Zhou Xianyang, and then said, "I originally set up a pharmaceutical company and a pharmaceutical research institute, and you can take over the management after you finish your graduate studies.
But you have been stubborn since you were a child, and you definitely won’t accept my arrangements. How can I control you?"

"Everyone wants to start their own business. Let's not talk about this. Dad, how is the country going to develop next?"

Zhou Xianyang waved his hands, unwilling to talk about those embarrassing things. He wanted to know some inside information from his father.

"If you ask your Feiyang Electric, my advice to you is that it is best to build a factory in the Guangdong Special Economic Zone."

Zhou Fengnian said truthfully that the electronics industry would be best located near Hong Kong, especially his son's Feiyang Electric. If they could manufacture MP3s, export would be a must.

"Sijiucheng is actually the second choice. Now you should find someone to develop new products, right?"

". You can't hide this from me. Yes, I have found seven technicians, but only four of them are working with me. Dad, can you introduce a few to me? Don't you have a few students?"

"You're dreaming. You poached me? My students will be put to good use in the future. You'd better go to Yanhe or Nanhe's research institutes. If they haven't raised their salaries for a few years, you still have some hope."

After Zhou Fengnian scolded him, he still felt a little soft-hearted and gave Zhou Xianyang some advice.

The number of factories under the Fourth Ministry of Machine Building was not as many as that under the First Ministry of Machine Building, but it managed many research institutes.

The salaries in research institutes are fixed. If you want to earn some money, you have to rely on project bonuses and factory cooperation. However, there are only a few factories that can develop now, so most research institutes have neither projects nor factories to cooperate with.

The research institutes in Beijing are not bad. There are many talented people and opportunities, and only a few are poor.

Further south, most research institutes are waiting for salary payments, and some of the salaries are in arrears.

"Now most of the electronics-related factories are located in the Guangdong Special Economic Zone. The situation there changes almost every year. If you want to develop, it is best to go there in advance.
This year we will collect the payment, and next year we will start to build a factory, so that your new product can become famous in Hong Kong, and then we can enter the overseas market."

This time, Zhou Fengnian was not stingy with Zhou Xianyang. Instead, he gave him a lot of advice. Not only advice, he also allocated some resources to him. For example, Shenzhou Computer Factory would help him a little, which made Zhou Xianyang excited and conflicted.

I was excited because his father had finally changed. When he was a child, he didn't even let him ride in a car, but now he said he would help him find a job at the Shenzhou Computer Factory.
The Shenzhou Computer Factory has been built in the Guangdong Special Economic Zone for several years and has officially started production and manufacturing, continuously exporting mid- and low-end computers through the port of Hong Kong.

Last year, it brought a production value of 1.3 billion yuan to the Guangdong Special Economic Zone. Just this branch factory can make the Guangdong Special Economic Zone develop as fast as a rocket.

"Dad, you have touched my heart. Next year
Let’s not wait until next year. I’ll take a look at Feiyang Electric in the middle of this year. If the financial situation is good, I’ll build a factory in the Guangdong Special Economic Zone.”

Zhou Xianyang was persuaded. His father couldn't possibly harm him. But... Halfway through his words, Zhou Xianyang suddenly remembered something and asked
"Dad, you don't want to drive me away and raise my son, do you?"

At this time, even if you take the express train, it will take a whole day, so it is really inconvenient to go out.

Zhou Fengnian turned his face away and said, "Get lost! I can just send you away with a transfer order. If you don't seize this opportunity, you will lose half of your future development space."

The Fourth Ministry of Machine Building was in charge of the electronics industry. Zhou Fengnian was ranked second from the top, and Zhou Xianyang's Feiyang Electric was changed to the electronics industry.

As for development, it can be said that the country is blessed with natural advantages. There is no need to talk about policy bias. Just a little leak of information is enough to make Zhou Xiangyang's belly full.

In fact, Feiyang Electric's reputation has spread a lot. After all, its predecessor, the First Electric Factory, was also a well-known factory in the city. Now that it has been contracted out, it has naturally attracted a lot of attention.

It was once a large factory with export earnings of nearly 100 million RMB. Even though it has fallen into decline, its foundation is still there.

If the Industrial Bureau's demands had not been too high, requiring not only the workers' wages but also several million in guaranteed profits, I'm afraid someone would have taken over the Electrical Appliance Factory long ago.

Anyone who doesn’t have absolute confidence wouldn’t dare to touch an electrical appliance factory. Its annual expenditure is tens of millions. Who would dare to touch it?
Three factory managers have been replaced but the problem has not been solved. They can't just sell the factory equipment within a year after taking over and put the money into their own pockets.

If the money cannot be paid in the second year, the contract will be invalidated and the factory will be taken back; you can't get yourself into trouble just to make money that year.

Now that someone is willing to take over, they will definitely be willing to keep an eye on it.

"Phew, it's finally done."

After completing the last theory, Zhou Fengnian breathed a sigh of relief.

After coming back, in addition to being busy with departmental affairs, I was also improving the theoretical knowledge and R&D and application of aerospace engines.

Having stayed in the Northeast for almost a year and used up almost all of his simulation times, Zhou Fengnian also upgraded many of his abilities to level nine in vain.

Automobile engines are just a by-product; aerospace engines are his goal.

It took nearly a year of hard work to achieve the current results.

"With these theories and application directions, domestic aerospace technology should be able to make rapid breakthroughs."

Zhou Fengnian pondered and thought, it's not that he didn't know anything about it before, but now the second communications satellite has just been launched and the space industry has just started.

We are still far behind in technology!

With these, China's aerospace level is expected to be among the best in the world within the next fifteen years.

After Zhou Fengnian sorted out his things, he called his secretary and said, "Mingjie, come to my place."

Wang Mingjie didn't say anything. After hanging up the phone, he went to Zhou Fengnian's office, knocked on the door and walked in.

"Boss, you didn't have lunch?"

Wang Mingjie was startled when he saw the lunch box on the table. He thought his leader called him in to collect the lunch box, but he didn't expect that the food in the lunch box was still untouched.

"I forgot about lunch. Never mind. It doesn't matter if I skip a meal. I need to go to the Academy of Sciences. Please prepare a car for me."

He had to go to the National Science and Technology Commission immediately and hand over the principles and applications of the latest rocket engines to the commission so that they could experiment and apply them as soon as possible.

Wang Mingjie asked: "Leader, you are going out? But what about lunch..."

"A meal is nothing. Go prepare the car first. Leave any urgent matters to Comrade Yifeng and Comrade Wenjie."

Zhou Fengnian raised his voice a little, and after listening to it, Wang Mingjie immediately went to inform the driver.

Soon, a car was arranged.

When the experiment was not being conducted, most of the scientists returned. Director Qian has now become the deputy director of the National Science and Technology Commission, and this time Zhou Fengnian went to find him.

Zhou Fengnian also held a position in name only, but he had only been here once a few years ago.

However, this information on the application of technical principles may very likely prompt Director Qian, who has just returned from a rest, to head to the Northwest again.

Although it's a bit unkind, there's no one more suitable.

Previously, they were in charge of different areas and Zhou Fengnian rarely got involved, but this time they just happened to meet, and there was a lot of overlap in their knowledge areas.

We cannot relax at all in the aerospace field, which involves many aspects. If they make many breakthroughs in the aerospace field, it will be of great help to future information warfare.

After Zhou Fengnian arrived at the place, he found Director Qian and discussed the rocket engine with him for a long time.

"Comrade Zhou Fengnian?"

After Director Qian heard what his assistant said, he was a little confused. He and Zhou Fengnian had not met often, but Zhou Fengnian had made a great contribution to the development of rocket and aerospace experiments.

The new generation of supercomputers has such fast computing speed that it helps them save a lot of time in their experiments. Otherwise, they would have to wait for several more years before returning.

After inviting Zhou Fengnian in, Director Qian was surprised and surprised when he learned the purpose of Zhou Fengnian's visit. However, when he saw the technical principles and application research and development materials brought by Zhou Fengnian, his eyes suddenly widened.
Zhou Fengnian did not finish the discussion until the evening. During this period, Director Qian called a group of people to form a seminar group.

All that’s left is to set up a research team directly.

Zhou Fengnian didn't get away until twelve o'clock, but his time for tomorrow was also booked, so he had to go there then.

If he didn't go, Zhou Fengnian had no doubt that Director Qian would come to see him.

After returning home, Zhou Fengnian originally wanted to go upstairs to rest immediately, but he suddenly felt hungry, so he went to the kitchen to find something to eat.

But just as I opened the refrigerator, I heard someone behind me say, "Are you hungry?"

"Oh, I'm going!"

Zhou Fengnian was startled for a moment, turned around and found that it was Zhou Yan, then he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Wife, scaring others will kill you."

"Didn't you say that you wouldn't be afraid of anything if you didn't do anything wrong? How could you be scared?"

Zhou Yan walked forward, squeezed Zhou Fengnian aside, and took out a bowl from the refrigerator, which was filled with a lot of dumplings.

"Tangyuan? Today is the Lantern Festival?"

"You were so busy that you forgot about the time. I had prepared a lot of food for you to come back, but we ate it first. It's not convenient to heat up the food now, so you can have some glutinous rice balls."

After Zhou Yan finished speaking, she went to light the fire and cook dumplings for Zhou Fengnian.

They started working on the second and third days of the Chinese New Year and were busy for about ten days, and it was indeed the Lantern Festival.

Zhou Fengnian said embarrassedly: "I was delayed by something today. Next time I will call you in advance."

"You always say you'll call, but you always forget."

"This Xiao Wang, I warned him before, he must have forgotten. I will criticize him tomorrow."

"Don't put the blame on Xiao Wang. You even forgot to eat the food he made for you. Have you had dinner?"

“Then he must have eaten it.”

Zhou Fengnian said that when he heard Zhou Yan say that he had not eaten lunch, he knew that Zhou Yan must have contacted Wang Mingjie.

"I was stopped by others today. It won't be this late tomorrow."

It’s hard to say what will happen to Zhou Fengnian tomorrow, but he will definitely apply to go home when the time comes.
