Rebirth in 1960, My Industrial Age

Chapter 342: Fighting Dad

"Director Zhou, I have to ask the leader to let you join the team. You have a solid knowledge of engines."

After the seminar, Director Qian took Zhou Fengnian aside and said that although he was the deputy director in name only, he rarely came here.

Apart from showing up once at the first meeting, he rarely came at other times.

The team discussion on the new generation of rocket engines lasted for half a month, and they finally understood and finalized the two technical principles and applications proposed by Zhou Fengnian. The next step is experimental manufacturing.

The engine is like the heart of the aerospace and missile fields. If there is a breakthrough in this area, it will directly raise their upper limit in this field.

To be honest, the two engine technologies that Zhou Fengnian came up with are actually the direction of their next research.

But a direction is a direction after all. If it weren't for Zhou Fengnian's mature technical principles and applications, they would still be exploring in the fog.

"Director Qian, forget it. I just happened to be here. You guys are still the ones who need to take on the most important experiments. I have other projects to take care of."

When Zhou Fengnian heard that he was going to join the team, he immediately declined.

It's not an excuse. He does have a lot of projects to be responsible for. Computers and semiconductors need his review, as well as robots, digital communications, and so on.

Moreover, all that remains for aerospace engines is testing and manufacturing, and the research and development period has passed.

The most important thing is that Zhou Fengnian has just been away from his family for almost a year. He is a very homesick person. If he leaves for a few more years...
"It's not just an experiment, Director Zhou. The next experiment will require a lot of changes, and I definitely need your ideas."

Director Qian said: "If it's fast, it will be over in five years."

"Director Qian, I do have a lot of projects, and I can't just move them around. Even if I want to, I need the approval of my boss, otherwise a lot of my work will be in vain."

Zhou Fengnian was not talking nonsense. He had to report even if he left Sijiu City, let alone give up the project he was working on and go to another place.

The last time I went to the Northeast, I also brought a special working group with me. Otherwise, if I just went to FAW Auto Factory to help, it would be suspected of not doing my job properly. Although the technological reform of FAW Auto Factory is also very important, Zhou Fengnian was responsible for more things at the time.

"Well, I'll go ask the leader. If possible, I still want you to join."

Director Qian sighed and said slowly, "Director Zhou, your research on your 'interest' has really saved us at least twenty years of time. Next, we will definitely catch up with Ami in the aviation field."

Space engines are not only related to the aerospace field, but also to the penetration capability of missiles. If their missile technology can be improved by several levels, China's strategic deterrence will be greatly enhanced.

By then, they will be able to defeat the countries in the Western Hemisphere at home, and the rogue countries will be much more restrained.

After prevarication for a while, Zhou Fengnian finally left; Director Qian originally wanted Zhou Fengnian to go with him to report, but Wang Mingjie contacted him twice and there was indeed an urgent matter in the department, so he left.

However, not long after Zhou Fengnian returned to the department, his leader called him and asked, "Comrade Fengnian, are you busy?"

Zhou Fengnian said, "Not particularly busy, Leader, is it because of what Director Qian said?"

"Yes, Director Qian told me clearly that it doesn't matter whether you are transferred or not. It's just that with your participation, their progress will be faster. But I know you still have many projects to be responsible for. So I came to ask for your opinion."

Zhou Fengnian said: "I will follow the organization's arrangements, but if you want me to go, it's better to give me three months. I have to arrange the projects on hand."

"Is that so? Well, Comrade Fengnian, come over when you're done with your work, and we can have a good chat."

"Okay, then five o'clock is ok, leader."

"Just five o'clock. I'll prepare tea for you."

"Haha, then I'm looking forward to it."

Feiyang Electric Factory.

Zhou Xianyang is now "hired" as deputy factory director to manage all factory affairs.

On the first day that Hong Sanqiang became the factory director, during a factory-wide meeting, he said that Zhou Xianyang, the deputy factory director, was in charge of all affairs, and then Hong Sanqiang went to study.

Hong Sanqiang is not ungrateful. He can get 150 yuan a month and study. Where can you find such a good thing?

As for his thoughts about the factory, he didn't dare to have such thoughts at all. He knew who Zhou Xianyang's father was. If he dared to have such thoughts, his uncle would kill him!

"director."

A clerk from the factory office came in, handed over a document and said, "The wireless communication factory has responded. Initially, 30,000 portable music players will be shipped over. Then, we will count the sales next month, replenish the stock and settle the payment."

When reporting this matter, the employee was much more surprised, and not just him, everyone who knew about this cooperation was also shocked.

I didn’t expect that the new factory director and deputy director could establish a relationship with the wireless communications factory and obtain such favorable cooperation.

Their products overlap greatly. Basically, anyone who buys a pager will consider a portable music player. Moreover, the ticket purchase requirement has been cancelled, which will surely attract many people.

The fees charged are also very low. It is only twelve yuan for selling a portable music player, which is almost free help.

Compared to that blood-sucking supply and marketing cooperative, the wireless communication factory is simply their biological father. After all, the supply and marketing cooperative wants them thirty-nine yuan, which is one-third of the profit.

"Okay, tell the workshop to speed up production. Once the warehouse has produced enough goods, send them to the wireless communication factory."

Zhou Xianyang reminded him that this was also the first time he took over such a large factory, but fortunately he had been to the Shenzhou Computer Factory many times before.

"Also, let the auditors perform their duties well. If they make money next month, they can't make mistakes in distributing bonuses!"

The products produced this month will be sold next month, and the payment will be received the month after next; it would definitely not be so fast for others, but the new director of the wireless communications factory is Pan Heng, an old subordinate of Zhou Fengnian.

He must take care of his leader's son, so the speed of repayment is impeccable and will definitely be carried out according to the highest standards.

After the sales volume is calculated over there, we will transfer the money here, and it will not be delayed for more than three days at the latest.

I was a little hesitant at first, but later I got proficient and now I can handle things in the factory.

To put it simply, there are two types: production planning and logistics management. Zhou Xianyang was able to get the hang of it after just a few days of study. It was not very difficult. He didn't understand why so many people were needed before and why their salaries were unfairly paid.

dong dong!

There was a knock on the door, and an employee pushed the door open and reported: "Deputy Director Zhou, someone outside wants to see you."

"Who?"

"I don't know, they didn't say."

"I didn't mention my identity, so I won't meet you."

Zhou Xianyang said without raising his head. He has not had an easy time recently. He cannot fall behind in factory work and school courses. If he is delayed by irrelevant people, he won't even be able to get off work on time every day.

The employee went out quickly after hearing the news, but not long after, the knock on the door rang again.

The employee who came in was the same one from before. He said with an embarrassed look on his face, "Deputy Director, they don't want to leave, and they also said that you should meet them, otherwise our factory will not be able to operate."

"Huh?"

Zhou Fengnian looked up in surprise after hearing this and said, "They are here with bad intentions. Please bring them in."

Who is this? He came to his factory to look for work.

Not long after, the factory office staff brought in three people, wearing military coats and looking relatively young, the oldest of whom was probably around 30 years old.

Seeing these people, Zhou Xianyang immediately had a guess in his mind, then smiled and said

"Brothers, you want to shut down my factory? Which factory are you from?"

The three people who came in frowned slightly after hearing this. Ren Zheng, the older one among them, said, "So you are from a big compound too?"

“Not really, my dad only moved in in recent years, and I’ve never lived in a compound, unlike you.

How about you each reveal your name? My father is Zhou Fengnian from the Fourth Ministry of Machine Building, my wife’s grandfather is Bai Yongkang from the Ministry of Foreign Trade, and who are you?”

After hearing this, Ren Zheng thought for a moment, then his face changed and he thought to himself that something was not good.

How come this kid has such a rich background? The two people I just mentioned together can make his elders break his legs. Which idiot told them that it was the deputy director of the Industry Bureau who facilitated this?

"Sorry for disturbing you today, we'll leave now."

After Ren Zheng finished speaking, he called his two younger brothers and said, "Let's go."

"Brother Ren"

Before the other two could react, they were dragged away by the leader Ren Zheng and left the factory soon after.

After they walked out of the factory, one of them said, "Brother Ren, what happened?" "What's going on? We were deceived by that grandson named Xue. What the hell, he borrowed a knife from us, damn it!"

Ren Zheng said with a stern face: "Fortunately, the other party announced their family identity first, otherwise if there was a commotion, we would have to be punished by the elders at home."

"No way"

The person who asked the question just now doubted it, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by another person who said, "Yes, I remember now, isn't Zhou Fengnian the one who was in the newspaper some time ago?

Even though he is not from the military, it is not easy for my old man to mess with him, especially since we are not favored by him.

And it seems that someone in their family is married to the two sisters of the Guo family. Brother Ren, do you know about this?"

Ren Zheng's face looked a little unhappy. He just wanted to pursue Guo's sister, but the other party didn't like him. Later he heard that she was married to a self-employed person.

At that time, he wanted to go to the house to take revenge, but when he met the Guo sisters, they said that the man was a relative of Zhou Fengnian, so Ren Zheng gave up the idea.

The reason I remembered it so quickly just now was also thanks to this experience; he is not only a deputy leader, but also often goes to the upper levels, and is an extremely enviable person.

Many people in the army mentioned Zhou Fengnian's name.

The wife of the man just now also has a grandfather who is a senior leader. Fortunately, they did not get hurt.

Ren Zheng snorted coldly and said, "Let's go find that Xue guy. Damn, he only has a grandfather who has been rehabilitated. He doesn't hold any position, and he tricked us."

After saying that, the three of them left immediately. Fortunately, they hadn’t said anything harsh or used any means. If the other party really fought back, their family members would beat them to death.

In the Feiyang Electric Appliance Factory, after driving away a few people, Zhou Xianyang didn't care at all and continued to pick up the book to start reviewing.

When he was looking for Bai Qing'an before, he used his father's reputation a lot, which was quite useful.

When he grew up, Zhou Xianyang also knew what level his father was. He could say that as long as he didn't make any mistakes, he could do whatever he wanted without any problems.

Although these three people are not very particular, they are much better than those in previous years. Since the strict crackdown last year, all those arrogant and lawless people have been reincarnated.

I don’t know where these people got the information from, but I guess they knew that they were in touch with the wireless communications factory?

However, Zhou Xianyang didn't take it to heart. It was not a big deal if he was scared away by his father. If he wasn't scared away, he would report to Zhou Fengnian.

At night, the city government’s family staff building.

A young man limped to open the door quietly, closed the door silently, and planned to walk into the house.

But at this moment the lights in the living room suddenly came on, and then the lame young man saw the elder of the family sitting on the sofa.

"Dad, haven't you rested yet?"

"Your grandpa also waited for a while, and your mother went to sleep. Fortunately, they didn't wait. What have you been doing now?"

The middle-aged man on the sofa frowned and scolded: "Do you know how strict it was last year? So many people were swept away, and you are still not honest?"

"Dad, it was an accident, I didn't do anything..."

"So how did you do this? Tell me the truth, or if your grandfather asks about it tomorrow, I won't be able to help you."

Xue Zhi hesitated for a while, and finally covered his mouth with his hands and said, "I heard a few days ago that the former Electric Appliance Factory No. 1 was contracted by the Zhou family.

So I instigated Ren Zheng and the others to cause trouble for that person from the Zhou family, and they seemed to react and beat me up."

"Zhou family?"

Zhang Minglin was startled, then asked, "Which Zhou family?"

".It's what mom always says is harming our Zhou family."

After listening to this, Zhang Minglin immediately reacted, and then scolded in a low voice with an unpleasant expression: "Your mother is not normal, and you are going crazy too? Do you know what our family is like now?
If I attract people’s attention, I won’t even be able to get promoted to director.”

".I didn't intend to show up, I just wanted Ren Zheng and the others to take revenge. Dad, what should we do now?"

Seeing that his father's face was a little ferocious, Xue Zhi asked in a panic, especially when Ren Zheng said that he would beat him every time he saw him in the future.

"Now I know I was panicking, but why didn't I control myself at that time?"

If his son wasn't covered in injuries, he would have wanted to beat him up again.

He should not have listened to his uncle in the first place and became a son-in-law of the Xue family. Not only has he been implicated for more than ten years, but his wife has also been talking about another man and often goes crazy and makes trouble for him.

If my father-in-law didn't still have a few connections, he would have divorced long ago!
After sighing, Zhang Minglin whispered, "Just say you were robbed. Stay home for the next month and don't go out. Let me find out..."

"I see, Dad."

Needless to say, Xue Zhi didn't dare to go out. If he was met by Ren Zheng and others, he would be beaten again.

------

After coming out of Zhonghai, Zhou Fengnian felt a little relieved.

The Northwest Research Base restarted the experiment, and Zhou Fengnian was just a figurehead. When he was needed, he would rush over immediately. If everything went well, he would just be a figurehead.

After all, the important engine technical data has been provided, and what remains is to experiment out the various problems that may be encountered.

But Director Qian is not a person who just sits there and does nothing. He can definitely solve small problems, and there is no need for Zhou Fengnian at all.

Originally Zhou Fengnian thought that he would go if he was asked to, and he would obey the organization in everything. In the end, the leader considered that there were many important tasks here, and there was no particular need for Zhou Fengnian to go.

Finally, after repeated discussions with other leaders, they decided to keep him.

Not to mention, computers, robots, the Internet and semiconductors, all of them need Zhou Fengnian.

China's robots have made a name for themselves. With industrial robots having developed to this level, other special robots will certainly be able to catch up.

In recent years, China has gradually gained a reputation as an industrial powerhouse, with achievements in machine tools, computers, robots, semiconductors, and automobiles, etc.

Although it is just a reputation, having the reputation of an industrial power has many invisible benefits; there are many more opportunities for foreign trade alone, and many foreign trade businessmen come to China to seek opportunities.

"Oh, Director Zhou, it's such a pity that I can't do research with you. Maybe our country's missile level can be developed faster."

Director Qian followed behind and said to Zhou Fengnian after coming out.

When they were discussing research together before, he always felt that Zhou Fengnian was hiding something, and that he was also learning a wide range of things like him. If he discussed with him for a long time, he would definitely get a lot of inspiration.

Zhou Fengnian waved his hand and said, "Hey, Director Qian, I am a latecomer, and I can't compare with you in missiles. I have only read the books you published.

If you have any problem, just call me. It won’t take long to get there by train anyway.”

Director Qian smiled and said, "We're leaving in half a month. We need to have a good chat now. I feel like I haven't talked to you enough. Oh, it's not possible today, Director Zhou. Can we make an appointment next time?"

"Okay, Director Qian, I'm usually free in the afternoon, I'll see you."

Zhou Fengnian couldn't refuse, so he had to agree with a smile.

"By the way, Ami's technology award has also nominated you. Let's go over and receive the award."

Director Qian suddenly asked, this is a news published by Amei, they intend to award prizes to several Chinese scientists and hope they can come to receive them.

"I would never go there. If it weren't for my leader's protection last time, I wouldn't have wanted to go there at all.

Most of the people don’t want Amei, and those who still have dignity are a minority, not to mention that they will increasingly target us.”

Zhou Fengnian shook his head and said that the Russians have now declined from their peak, and the situation in the country can no longer be covered up.

The weaker the Russians are, the weaker the Ami will be against them, and then they will turn around and target them.

What's more, China is very powerful now. The Southern Monkeys have weapons supported by the Russians, and they were taught a lesson by China in a blitzkrieg. They were beaten so hard that they dare not cause trouble until now.

Inviting them to receive the award at this time would probably be like inviting a bullet.

Zhou Fengnian didn't even think about it. After hearing the news, he simply threw it behind his mind as a useless piece of information.

After chatting for a while nearby, the two got in their cars and went home.
