Siheyuan: The Era of Struggle

Chapter 51 Top Blowing Technology Design Completed (Please Read and Collect)
In this era, as long as two people are attracted to each other and their families agree, the process is very fast. On the weekend of the week that Professor Dong came to propose marriage, the two families and Professor Dong had a meal together, and the marriage of Yang Ning and Hu Yinghong was settled.

They just had to wait until Yang Ning was old enough, and after submitting a report and getting approval from the organization, they would become a family.

With the identity of fiancée, Hu Yinghong took better care of Yang Ning. Now, Yang Ning didn't even have to take his dirty clothes home to give to Yang Liushi. Hu Yinghong would wash them herself.

With her care, Yang Ning focused more on top-blown furnace technology.

However, as he and Mr. Ye conducted in-depth research, they found that if they wanted to develop top-blowing technology, they would first have to solve the problem of the steelmaking furnace, because converter technology was still a new thing, and open-hearth steelmaking was already a very mature technology.

In addition, our steelmaking industry now relies mainly on the support of Big Brother, and Big Brother also uses open-hearth technology at this time.

If we want to promote top-blowing technology, we must overturn the existing technology and convert it all into converters. Moreover, without the support of Big Brother, we have to rely on ourselves to explore everything.

Another point is the combustion aid liquid oxygen required for top blowing technology.

The combustion aid used in open-hearth technology is natural gas. Although my country's proven natural gas reserves were not abundant at the time, it was there at least.

However, we are still in the exploratory stage when it comes to liquid oxygen production, and everything will be in vain if there is not enough combustion aid.

To produce liquid oxygen, a qualified compressor is essential.

So Yang Ning ran back to school and begged his teacher, Professor Dong, to come and help. He also applied for support from some chemistry experts from the school.

Because of Professor Dong's guarantee, the school agreed readily and transferred several teachers and students from the chemistry major to work with them on this topic.

After all, the war that the rabbits have just experienced has made us suffer from a fear of insufficient firepower. The demand for steel is the more the better, and the school cannot ignore it.

After the school reported this topic to the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the academy began to pay attention to it and also dispatched some experts in metallurgy to provide support.

As a result, the pure oxygen top blowing technology research team, which was originally a makeshift team, began to look a bit like a regular army.

"Student Yang Ning, this is the data Professor Dong gave you. You are asked to calculate it as soon as possible."

A chemistry student placed a stack of drawings filled with mathematical models and data on the table in front of Yang Ning and looked at him with curiosity.

He didn't understand how Yang Ning, who was so young, could become the third person in the research group. His importance here was second only to the general manager Mr. Ye and Professor Dong who was responsible for designing production equipment.

Yang Ning looked up at him, said thank you to him with a smile, took the drawing and started flipping through it.

Seeing that Yang Ning was so busy, the student didn't want to disturb him any further. He glanced at Hu Yinghong who was sitting quietly not far behind Yang Ning, smiled at her, and left the office.

Hu Yinghong kept staring at the man until he left the office, then she continued to read the medical book in her hand.

She knew that no piece of paper from Yang Ning was allowed to be taken out, and even his driver Chen Jingguo was standing guard outside the office.

Since learning about their research project, the higher-ups have attached great importance to it.

Now the Big Brother's assistance has just begun, and the impact on us is not that great yet. In addition, one more path means one more choice. If Yang Ning and his team succeed, it will definitely be great news for Rabbit.

After two months of hard work, the research team finally perfected all the designs of the top blowing technology before September.

"Oh!" Looking at the results of their past few months' work, the young students and researchers all cheered. Even the older ones like Professor Dong and Mr. Ye had smiles on their faces.

"Have you succeeded?" Dean Guo, who heard the noise, also rushed over. Looking at the cheering crowd, he pulled Mr. Ye and asked excitedly.

"Yeah!" Old Ye smiled and nodded at him, saying softly.

"Great! We don't have to worry about steel anymore."

Dean Guo was also excited when he received Mr. Ye's affirmative response.

Then he looked at Mr. Ye seriously and warned him, "Don't forget the confidentiality agreement."

"Don't worry, we have all signed and passed the review."

Then Elder Ye looked at Dean Guo and said, "But even if we keep it a secret, if the experiment is successful, we can't hide it from Big Brother's experts!"

After hearing what Mr. Ye said, Dean Guo was silent for a while and said, "Don't worry about these. Let the higher-ups handle it. After all, we can't afford such a big responsibility."

Dean Guo glanced at the researchers who had quieted down and turned to leave.

After a while, he returned to the laboratory with several armed soldiers, picked up a full set of drawings, encouraged the researchers involved, and then left in a hurry.

Not long after, President Guo drove to a mysterious place and after some briefing, he met the thin old man.

"President Guo is here? Sit down!"

When the old man saw Dean Guo, he took off his glasses, rubbed his swollen eyebrows, stood up and greeted him with a gentle smile.

"Leader, you also need to take care of your health. We still need your leadership."

Although Dean Guo is the leader's deputy and the two are familiar with each other, this time Dean Guo looked at the leader with eyes full of respect.

After all, this old man really worked hard and devoted everything he had so that we could stand up.

Dean Guo sat down on the sofa nearby. After a while, his secretary came in, poured a cup of tea for both of them, and then left.

"It's okay. Now that Big Brother has come to help us, it doesn't matter if we're a little tired. I'm happy to see that life is getting better day by day."

The leader waved his hand nonchalantly, then looked at Dean Guo and asked curiously, "Dean Guo, Big Brother is here to support us, and you have a lot of responsibilities on your shoulders, too. How come you have time to come to my place today?"

Dean Guo slapped his forehead and said with an annoyed look: "Look, after meeting you, I almost forgot the business."

Dean Guo looked at his leader excitedly and said, "Director Ye's research has been successful, and we are just waiting to arrange trial production. If it succeeds, we will no longer have to worry about the lack of steel."

"Oh, this is good news." The leader was also very happy to hear what President Guo said: "If we have enough steel, we will have enough guns, tanks and planes to protect ourselves, and we can also build more machinery and equipment. Our scientific researchers do not wait or rely on others, but give full play to their subjective initiative. It's amazing, amazing!"

The leader said "great" twice in a row, which shows that he was very happy at the moment.
