The Grandmother in the Siheyuan

Chapter 177 Research Team
Li Huaide acted quickly. In less than twenty minutes, his secretary brought over a few cans of tea. One look at the stickers on them revealed that Li Huaide had invested heavily.

Longjing, Houkui, Biluochun, these are all top-notch teas now. The best ones are basically exported for currency exchange. It is estimated that Li Huaide contributed all the good goods he had found by digging holes in the door.

The higher authorities also acted quickly. Within a week, Li Huaide ran into the technical department's office as if his butt was on fire after work.

"Hua Zi, Hua Zi." Li Huaide shouted before he even entered the door: "Good news, very good news, do you want to guess?"

"Do you still need to guess?"

Li Huaide smiled and nodded: "Yes, the superiors have approved our plan. The most important thing is that the first pilot project is in our steel rolling mill. We are going to take off."

Liu Hua frowned. It was probably impossible to take off. This year was already the 1965th year. It would be great if we could build a new rolling mill and complete the first phase of the project. It would be a bit difficult to carry out construction quietly next year.

"Why do you look a little unhappy?"

Liu Hua shook his head. "You are asking this even though you already know the answer. This means I will be busy for another year. You think industrial design is an easy thing to do. I am young and I don't want to lose a lot of hair."

"The more capable you are, the more work you should do." Li Huaide smiled and said, "First, finish this new steel rolling mill, and then I'll let you take a year off. Being too outstanding is not a good thing, so I'll give you a year or two to bide your time."

"Hide one's strength and bide one's time?" Liu Hua said with great joy: "This word seems to describe my great ambitions."

"You are a young man in your early twenties, and you have achieved so many scientific research results so far. Who would believe you if you said you have no ambition?" Li Huaide said with a strange look on his face: "In fact, I understand your thoughts very well. It is human nature for young people to want to become famous. Don't be embarrassed to admit it."

Speaking of ambition, Liu Hua certainly has it, but he has already reached this level in his life and does not have any personal ambition. Even if he relies on his achievements in this life, the country will take care of everything for him.

Personal matters are nothing, but national affairs are important. It is said that we have suffered humiliation from Western powers since the Opium War in 1840. Liu Hua felt that he could travel back in time and have such a system. His own ambition is to make this country the strongest power in the world.

The higher-ups took this matter very seriously and sent five engineers, all of whom were at level seven or eight, as well as four or five senior technicians.

Before these people came, their leaders had warned them not to look down on Liu Hua just because he was young. They should know that although he was young, he had achieved much greater results than they did.

These engineers had heard of Liu Hua's name a long time ago. For such a capable person, it would not be enough for them to just learn from him, and they would never look down on him.

The first step is always to teach, just like the doctoral supervisors in later generations. When they receive a new topic, they will first explain the principles to the students, and then let the students do it.

It’s a pity that Liu Hua doesn’t have his own research team yet, otherwise the efficiency could be increased by at least 30%. However, given his current status, he is not worthy of this standard.

If he works hard to gain experience, Liu Hua should have no problem becoming a doctoral supervisor by the 1990s. If he works harder, it won't be impossible for him to become an academician of the two academies, and by then it won't be a problem for him to set up a research team.

The big blackboard in the technical department carries a lot of information. Converter technology is written on it, dividing head and gear hobbing machine are also written on it, and improved machine tools are also written on it, so this blackboard can be said to have made outstanding contributions. This time, several engineers were carefully selected from the department, and they are engineers who have done research on rolling mills. Liu Hua's class was very smooth.

To draw inferences about other cases from one example is an expression used to describe these people. As soon as Liu Hua puts forward an argument, they can form several solutions in their minds, although they may not all be the best.

This kind of positive and pioneering spirit is extremely valuable in scientific research. Liu Hua assigned all the original technical secondary school students in the technical department to help them. If they can learn one or two, there will be no problem at all in providing technical support for rolling mills in the steel mill in the future.

With so many capable assistants, life is not as busy as imagined. Liu Hua can leave work early every day to pick up his wife from get off work.

After a while, Liu Feifei was puzzled and asked curiously: "Didn't you say you were going to design a new rolling mill this year? Why do you seem to be so relaxed at work?"

"This is not just a project for our steel mill. Li Huaide also reported it to the Ministry of First Machinery Industry, which also attaches great importance to it and sent several capable engineers to help. With them, the work is very easy. I just need to provide guidance and review."

"You are promoting yourself." Liu Feifei said with a smile, "After all, he was sent by the ministry. In ancient times, he was an imperial envoy. How dare you let him work while you sit idle?"

"What a bullshit imperial envoy." Liu Hua said disdainfully: "That's all stuff from the garbage dump of history. Before these people came, someone told them that they were here to learn, not to guide work."

Liu Hua patted his chest and said, "I am not bragging, but no one can guide me in what I want to do. I am the only one who can guide others."

"Look at you, you're a bull."

Although Liu Feifei looked very proud, she was extremely happy in her heart. Which woman doesn't want her husband to be ambitious and capable?

Otherwise, why are those domineering boss stories on the Internet so popular? It is because the descriptions of their ideal partners satisfy many women and are enough to make them moved.

Liu Feifei took out a meat ticket and said, "Let's go eat mutton hotpot today. I don't know why, but I suddenly feel like eating meat."

"Then let's go eat shabu-shabu." Liu Hua waved his hand and said, "I know a very unreliable guy who once said something like this, and I don't know if it's reliable or not."

"What?"

"He said that if one day I really want to eat something, it means that my body is in urgent need of that substance." Liu Hua said with a smile: "I think his statement is not very scientific, but it is very close to immunology and does make sense."

"I want to eat mutton hotpot now. Is it because my body is in urgent need of mutton hotpot?"

"Liu Hua shook his head: "This means that your body is in urgent need of nutrients, such as protein, fat, and other substances, and shabu-shabu is just a manifestation of these substances in your brain."
