Siheyuan: The Era of Struggle

Chapter 42 The birth of the CJ-5, the fighting spirit of this generation

Regardless of the comrade who fell into the water, Yang Ning discussed with the comrade who picked them up and decided to put the two people's luggage on the bicycle rack, and the three of them walked to the 320 Factory together.

Factory 320 was one of the earliest aircraft manufacturing plants in the country, and was built on the basis of the original Second Aircraft Manufacturing Plant.

The reason why the higher-ups sent Yang Ning here was mainly for Rabbit's first independently produced aircraft, the CJ-5, which was a copy of its big brother, the Yak-18.

Because Rabbit's aircraft manufacturing is still a blank, even basic technical workers are not available. In order to ensure the smooth production of this aircraft, because riveting aluminum alloy joining technology is required, even the craftsmen who used to repair aluminum pots in Hongcheng were summoned.

Since the trial production started in the first half of the year, although we have received more than a year of guidance from the experts, we have also overcome some difficulties.

However, despite the efforts of workers and technicians in exploring the most critical aluminum alloy sheet metal forming technology, they have not yet met the requirements.

The aircraft's mid-wing and outer-wing beams are made of imported materials. The parts are long and thick, and their interfaces are variable, making them very difficult to form. They are also easy to deform after quenching and difficult to correct.

As for the more complex hyperbolic metal processing on the outer surface of the engine, it is said that only one former tinsmith is still trying.

Because many materials need to be imported from big brother, workers do not have many opportunities for practical training, so these problems have not been solved for a long time.

Taking into consideration Yang Ning's strong memory and the fact that he studied mechanics, making him a half-colleague, his superiors sent him over to provide technical support.

Because now everyone is completely clueless about how to build an airplane, it's like trying everything possible, just give it a try and see if anything works.

Who would have thought that Yang Ning would launch a large satellite before leaving? This made his superiors feel embarrassed for a while. Finally, they decided to let Yang Ning continue the mission. After all, the transfer order had already been sent to the First Machinery Factory.

If Yang Ning can solve it, that would be great. If not, he should return to Sijiu City as soon as possible to where he can play the greatest role.

It was not until they followed Comrade He, who had come to pick them up, into the factory that Yang Ning understood why the comrade who had just come from the north had fallen into the water.

Although there is a main road from the train station to the factory, it takes a long detour to get there by bicycle, so people who usually ride bicycles or walk will choose to take a shortcut.

The shortcut requires passing through several villages. At this time in the rural areas of the south, ponds can be seen everywhere, some of which even have a thick layer of green algae floating on them. If ordinary people are not careful when they first arrive, it is easy to fall into them.

In particular, some roads are just a half-meter-wide ridge with rice fields on both sides.

There is still some time before the rice matures, and it is not time to drain the water yet. If you accidentally slip down, you will definitely be covered in mud.

It was really difficult for the comrade who fell into the water. I'm afraid that when he saw these roads, he thought that Tang Monk's journey to obtain Buddhist scriptures was no more difficult than these.

The three of them arrived at the factory before dark without any trouble. Yang Ning and Hu Yinghong took the letter of introduction and their ID cards and planned to rest in the guesthouse for a night and report in tomorrow.

After several days of traveling, Yang Ning was so tired that he fell asleep immediately after washing up without even eating.

At this time, Hu Yinghong took her ID and sent a telegram to Sijiucheng to report to her superiors the news that Yang Ning had arrived safely.

For the next period of time, Yang Ning began to follow Big Brother's technical staff and devoted himself to the work.

Relying on the super brain mode and following the guidance of the Big Brother technicians, Yang Ning finally made parts that met the requirements.

Amid the cheers of all the workers at Factory 5, the first aircraft manufactured independently in my country, the CJ-54, was finally manufactured and assembled in March 3.

Looking at this big guy in front of him, Yang Ning's heart was filled with a strong sense of pride. After all, he was also involved in this plane. At this time, the technician of the big brother patted Yang Ning on the shoulder and praised him: "Dawali, Hala Shao!"

Because this project is completed, he can also return to his cold and beautiful homeland.

In previous contacts, although this technician was very conscientious, he would occasionally complain about the environment in Hongcheng.

Although he had known about it before coming here, he still couldn't understand why it was so hot in his hometown when it was already winter.

The temperature isn't that low, so why is the winter here so cold that it penetrates into my bones?

When Yang Ning heard his complaints, he curled his lips and really wanted to say to him directly: "How about we switch?"

Yang Ning originally thought that he was cold-resistant enough, but when he arrived in Hongcheng, he realized that there is a kind of cold called southern cold.

Can you imagine that the quilt you cover yourself with in winter can be wrung out of water? Can you imagine that your clothes can't be dried in winter? Sometimes the house you live in becomes a water curtain cave, with water drops dripping down the walls and roof.

Hongcheng is so trendy!

No wonder I often heard people say in my previous life: Girls in the south are made of water.

This time Yang Ning really believed it.

The successful manufacture of the CJ-5 caused a huge sensation.

However, Yang Ning's story was not over yet. The leaders of the 320 Factory saw that Yang Ning was a quick learner, and he could basically master what the experts at the big brother taught him after just one demonstration.

So Yang Ning was asked to stay for a while to guide the workers in their techniques.

After all, when the big brother gave guidance before, although there was a translator, there were still certain language barriers.

At that time, there were workers in the factory, including craftsmen from the old society, who simply could not understand some professional terms.

So in the next month, Yang Ning began to guide the workers in their techniques.

Without the language barrier and with Yang Ning's easy-to-understand explanations, some techniques that had not yet been mastered were quickly learned by the workers.

After finishing the job, at Hu Yinghong's repeated urging, the two boarded the train back to Sijiucheng.

This trip to Hongcheng also gave Yang Ning a certain spiritual baptism.

Every time I see those workers working tirelessly, lifting several tons of fuselage onto the workbench, the technicians studying day and night, and the technicians shamelessly surrounding the big brother and asking a question several times, it is just for that tiny possibility of success.

The determination and passion in those people's eyes is the most direct expression of this generation's perseverance and fighting spirit.

They may not know much, but they know one thing: if their generation does not work hard, the suffering they have endured may happen to their descendants in the future.

It can be said that this generation not only fought the wars of five generations, but also suffered the hardships of three generations. This is what enables us to stand proudly in the world in the future.
