Rebirth in 1960, My Industrial Age

Chapter 59: Conflicts in the Partner's Family
"The technician in our factory, at home. I haven't been to his home yet, let's talk about it later."

Zhou Yan suddenly remembered that Zhou Fengnian's family seemed to be from the countryside. If she told this to her mother, who was a snob, she would definitely look down on her. So she made up her mind to keep it secret.

We’ll talk about it later when we bring them back to meet our parents.

"How can you not find out clearly, Zhou Yan, you are so brave now."

Zhou Yan's mother, Lv Honghui, slammed the table angrily and said, "I don't agree with this matter. At least we need to find out the situation at the man's home.

And Zhou Yan, if you get married, you have to give your job to your elder brother, and then you can focus on taking care of the children at home!"

Zhou Hao said unhappily: "Mom, why give it to my elder brother? I can also take my place in my elder sister's position."

"Don't even think about it!"

Zhou Yan felt cold in her heart and said angrily, "I got this position by myself, why should I let them take over?"

"They are your brothers. Why do you still need to work when you are married? Your brothers are the ones who support the family."

Lu Honghui said decisively that she was not afraid of Zhou Yan's resistance, and if she didn't agree, she would go to the machinery factory to make trouble.

Once a woman gets married, she is like water spilled. Lv Honghui hasn't returned to her parents' home for more than ten years.

Putting herself in Zhou Yan's shoes, she felt that she would not come back after getting married, so why would she take her job away?

If she stays to work there, the man will have to give her a dowry so that she can give her younger son some money for his marriage.

Lu Honghui had already figured it out in her mind. By then, both husband and wife would be working, and her youngest son would have money to get married. Only then could her family be considered prosperous.

"He can't even work as a temporary worker, how can he support the family? I won't do it!"

Zhou Yan said in a firm tone that she earned the position through her merits, and she did not intend to ask Zhou Fengnian's family for a large dowry.

Lv Honghui immediately said in a stern voice: "Just give it a try. I'm your mother. Don't force me to go to your factory and make trouble. Let's see who will get the better of me then."

"How can you be my mother? You are only thinking about my eldest brother and third brother."

Zhou Yan said angrily, but before she could finish her grievances, Zhou Xiangde came over with some leftover steamed bread and said
"Okay, let's not talk about this for now."

Zhou Yan asked unconvincedly, "Dad, are you the same as Mom?"

"Eat, and then go to bed early."

After Zhou Xiangde finished speaking, he went back to the inner room. Then Lu Honghui wanted to say something, but Zhou Xiangde called her in.

Their family had even less housing. Zhou Kai and Zhou Hao lived in one room, and Zhou Yan lived in another with her parents. Usually, Zhou Yan would draw a curtain in the south corner, put up a bed board and use it as her own room.

The good mood that Zhou Fengnian brought back today was all taken away by my family.

After finishing her meal, Zhou Yan took a basin of water to wash herself, then she drew the curtain and went to bed to rest, but she felt too aggrieved to fall asleep.

"Mr. Huang, Mr. Li, welcome, welcome."

In the morning, when Zhou Fengnian heard that people from the Sixth Institute had arrived, he immediately went to the factory gate to greet them.

This time Director Wang was quite helpful and sent him two level 10 technicians, and the others were at least level 15.

With so many capable people, I'm afraid the manufacturing time of CNC machine tools can be shortened a little bit.

Huang Weijiang also shook hands and said, "Technician Zhou, Huang is not worthy of the title. We are not engineers. Just call me by my name, haha."

Li Yaohui also said: "Yes, Technician Zhou, we still need to get along for a while, it's not good to be too polite. Besides, we all admire you very much. Your research has greatly helped our institute. After we finish here, we will still be busy when we go back, haha."

Although there was a hint of complaint in their words, both of them had happy smiles on their faces, as if they were very happy to be busy for the country's development.

The majors of these ten people are all related to electronic computers. After finishing the tasks at the machinery factory, they will definitely continue to participate in the manufacturing of the second-generation electronic computers after returning.

"Okay, then I won't be polite. You are all my seniors, so just call me Fengnian from now on. If you encounter any problems in the machinery factory, just tell me."

Zhou Fengnian said with a smile, and then took them into the factory. He also instructed the security personnel at the gate to send these people's passes directly to the seventeenth workshop after they were processed.

The machinery factory is a heavy machinery factory directly under the ministry. Although the level of confidentiality is not as high as that of the Sixth Institute, it is not a place that ordinary people can enter and exit at will.

After bringing the ten people who came to help into the factory, Zhou Fengnian first led them to their accommodation and put down their personal belongings.

Afterwards, he took them to the canteen to familiarize themselves with the dining area. The food was already prepared, so they could go to the canteen to eat at noon today.

It’s okay if you arrive late, there will be someone to help you. The kitchen will arrange for someone to prepare meals and deliver them to the workshop.

In the seventeenth workshop, all the machines and equipment are in place, and even the senior workers who provide support have already started working.

"This is your workbench. They have already started making transistors over there. Tomorrow I will be able to assemble them into integrated circuit boards."

Huang Weijiang nodded after listening and said, "Fengnian, don't worry, we still need to hear your opinions on some issues of the electronic control system of CNC machine tools.
We have already obtained the information from Tsinghua University, so we will continue to enrich it on this basis. "

"Weijiang, Yaohui and other comrades, this is what I think"

Zhou Fengnian took out the machine tool drawings he had drawn earlier and explained in detail the requirements of the braking system and what kind of control system they needed to develop.

At the same time, he quietly instilled the results of his experiments in the simulated space into these people.

As they talked and discussed, with the technicians from the Sixth Institute taking notes, they quickly came up with a general idea of ​​the manufacturing direction and planned many requirements in just one afternoon.

Zhou Fengnian also stayed here. He didn't even go to the toilet the whole afternoon. When he finished talking to them, it was almost dark.

"I understand, Fengnian. You are indeed a talented person who developed integrated circuit boards by yourself. I didn't expect that you also have such a deep understanding of electronic computers."

Li Yaohui praised sincerely.

No wonder Director Wang Hai reminded them before they came that they must listen to Zhou Fengnian; his level doesn't look like that of a level 13 technician. Li Yaohui didn't doubt that he was an electronic engineer.

"Haha, I just learned it by myself. This knowledge is quite interesting."

Zhou Fengnian has now slowly started to bring books home. Once two cabinets are filled with professional knowledge books, he won't have to hide anything anymore.

The answer is he learned it by himself, he is a genius.

"Dear comrades, please leave work on time today. We will have a lot of work to do tomorrow. Let's go to the canteen to get some food first."

Zhou Fengnian told the people in the workshop that everyone in Workshop 17 would be provided with two meals, and almost everyone working in the new workshop would be given full meal tickets.

The factory is not stingy in this regard, but there are not many people, only about 40 workers in total, and all the workers are senior workers.

After saying that, Zhou Fengnian also prepared to go home first.

However, when Zhou Fengnian walked out of the workshop, he saw the person he had just talked to waiting near the workshop.

Seeing Zhou Fengnian coming out, Zhou Yan immediately walked towards him with a smile on her face.
