Back to the 80s Machinery Factory

Chapter 442 Such a big matter, he handled it all by himself?
He exudes a confident and dashing aura.

After finally finishing cleaning,
Chen Luyang went downstairs with her schoolbag on her back. Before she could even leave the dormitory, she was beckoned over by the dormitory auntie.

"Xiao Chen, is this your picture?"

"Which one?"

Chen Luyang looked on curiously, then laughed.

"It's me! This energetic young man has to be me!"

As she spoke, Chen Luyang happily took the school magazine and excitedly began reading it page by page.

Good guy...

The technology behind these little glasses is impressive!

The angle chosen resulted in only highlights.

"Xiao Chen, you also have a repair shop outside?" the dormitory auntie asked curiously.

"It's not mine, it belongs to our factory."

Chen Luyang explained with a smile, "I am a trainee from the provincial machinery factory, and this repair shop also belongs to our factory. I am temporarily in charge of it."

The dormitory supervisor looked at Chen Luyang in surprise, never expecting that he was actually the person in charge of the repair shop.

"So, you're juggling school and work, can you manage it all?" the dorm supervisor asked.

"Yes! Absolutely!"

Chen Luyang spoke with a nonchalant air.

As long as he can make money, as long as he can ensure that Director Lu and the others can live a good life,
He can do anything!
I flipped through the three reports again.
Holding the school magazine, Chen Luyang began to negotiate with the dormitory auntie:
"Auntie, can I keep this school magazine as a souvenir?"

The young man's voice was low, with a hint of flattery and coquetry, and his beautiful, almond-shaped eyes blinked rapidly at the dormitory auntie.

The dormitory auntie blinked and laughed.

"Take it, there's nothing wrong with it."

The dormitory auntie generously gave the book in her hand to Chen Luyang.

Anyway, each dormitory was given 3 books, so even if one is given, there are still 2 left.

There are enough students in the dorm to see this.

"Okay! Thank you, Auntie!"

Chen Luyang happily put the magazine into her schoolbag and strode towards the teaching building.

Along the way, students would pass by him from time to time, glancing at him with a hint of curiosity.

Walk through the corridor and enter the classroom.

As soon as I sat down, Gao Xiaolin in the row in front of me turned around and asked, "Wenwei, did you know you were reported to the colonel?"

Chen Luyang feigned ignorance: "What report?"

"Stop pretending, the school magazine is practically worn out from being read so many times! Three articles in a row!" Gao Xiaolin rolled her eyes.

"Your lectures, the repair shop signage, and that spark plug gasket standardization thing—three pages, all about you!"

"Those who know this will think it's a 'report' to higher authorities, but those who don't will think it's a special publication the school specially made for you."

"Your photo is so worn out from being handled so much!"

Chen Luyang grinned: "You didn't touch it twice?"

Gao Xiaolin grinned mischievously: "Whether I touched him or not doesn't matter. The auntie who cleans the toilets in our area touched him several times with a smile, saying, 'This young man has a bright smile and is very clean and efficient.'"

wipe……

Chen Luyang's smile froze.

Just as he was about to speak, Sun Legen, Zheng Zhe, and Du Qiming, along with several other boys in the back row, all popped their heads out at once.
"Director Chen, can we curry favor with him?"

Zheng Zhe winked and said, "I have a bicycle chain that keeps falling off. Could you help me figure out a way to make a universal chain?"

Chen Luyang laughed: "Of course there's no problem! I'll make sure the chain resonates with you and touches every one of your eyes!"

"By the way, Xiaolin, could you do me a favor later and ask me to get a copy of the school magazine from your dorm or something?"

Gao Xiaolin was taken aback: "What? You want to keep it as a souvenir?"

Chen Luyang said in a serious tone, "Of course! This is the first time in my life that I've been featured in the school magazine, and I even got three news articles on it at once. I'm going to keep this as a family heirloom."

Jiang Feng asked in confusion, "What's so special about this?"

Other people's family heirlooms are either gold bracelets and necklaces or silver bracelets and necklaces.

Even the books in the collection are masterpieces by famous authors.

When did a school magazine become a family heirloom?

Chen Luyang gave her a look that said, "You just don't understand."

"Anyway, I'll rely on this magazine to educate my children and grandchildren from now on."

"Anyway, you all help me search around, look for places like the cafeteria, lecture hall, and bulletin boards."

Gao Xiaolin is not at a disadvantage.

"Can't you trade a school magazine for a meal?"

"That's no problem!" Chen Luyang patted his chest and assured him, "One school magazine and one meal!"

The group was chatting happily when the school bell rang.

Everyone sat down and listened attentively to the lesson.

……

at the same time
Lian Yinghua parked her bicycle next to the teaching building, picked up her bag, and stepped into the building with light steps.

The professors in the economics department have been really prestigious lately!
Never mind what Chen Luyang said on Saturday~
Those were students from their economics department!
While other students struggle to keep up with daily classes, my students are already standing on the school's stage giving lectures.

Awesome!
Pushing open the door to the economics department office, I saw the professor of Western Economics Principles watering the orchids on his desk.

The pricing professor was fiddling with the abacus, occasionally jotting something down on a piece of paper.

The professor of industrial economics is going up against the professor of labor economics.

Recently, these two teachers somehow got into a disagreement about the marginal returns to labor.

Whenever they have a spare moment, they exchange a few words.

The office was operating as usual, bustling yet with a touch of academic atmosphere.

Back at her desk, Lian Yinghua continued proofreading the manuscript of "A Guide to the Original Works of Economics" submitted by Chen Luyang.

Thanks to Chen Luyang, the translation of the original text for the Economics Department has progressed rapidly.

If we work hard and put in the extra effort, we might be able to finish the first draft before the end of the year.

Just then, a student gently knocked on the door and brought the latest school magazine into the office.

Although they are teachers, their aesthetic sense is the same as that of the students.

Everyone likes to browse the supplements to lift their spirits, while they only flip through the table of contents of the main magazine.

The labor economics teacher got tired of arguing, picked up his mug, took a couple of gulps, and casually picked up the school magazine to start reading.

Looking at it,

"Hey? Isn't this Chen Luyang?" The labor economics teacher's tone revealed a hint of surprise.

"Where?" Lian Yinghua quickly came over.

Upon seeing the article "Science Spring Lecture Concludes Successfully" in the school magazine, I immediately lost interest.

"What's the big deal?"

Lian Yinghua looked at the teacher of labor economics with disdain. The whole school knew last week that Chen Luyang from the Department of Economics was going to give a lecture, so getting published in the school newspaper was nothing to brag about.

But before I could even turn around, I heard the labor economics teacher say:
"Who told you to look at that! Look at this!!"

As he spoke, he turned to the next page of the book.

The research project on fatigue crack modeling of connectors has been successfully implemented, with the Peking University Department of Mechanics' repair shop serving as an experimental site.

In the photo, Chen Luyang is standing at the entrance of the repair shop with several workers and taking a group photo with some other people who look like students.

The sign above the entrance clearly reads "Off-campus Experimental Site of the Department of Mechanics, Peking University".

Lian Yinghua's eyes widened immediately.

"When did he start dating someone from the mechanics department?"

Several teachers, upon hearing the news, curiously gathered around.

Everyone instinctively turned to the next page.

Then, there was a three-second silence. "Economics Department Freshmen Initiate Inter-Departmental Collaboration, Successfully Producing Standardized Automotive Parts"? ???

This surprised even Zhang Guozhen, the head of the economics department.

"Nobody told me about any inter-departmental collaboration?!"

Who came up with this title?!
He, the head of the economics department, didn't even know that freshmen in the economics department had initiated inter-departmental collaborations.

The group of people looked at each other, and the originally relaxed atmosphere suddenly became a bit complicated.

After reading the news, the group understood.

"Wow, he's really something!" Zhang Guozhen said with a hint of disbelief.

"They've only been in school for a few weeks and they've already made such a fuss, getting the Mechanics Department's joint lab, doing projects, and even prototyping parts?"

Third- and fourth-year students are still figuring out how to put it into practice.

As a result, Chen Luyang had already started engaging in real-world social-technological collaboration.

"Isn't this ridiculous!" Lian Yinghua frowned.

"Such a big thing, and you didn't notify the class or the department, and just did it all on your own?"

"Wouldn't it have been better if he had just told us beforehand so we could help him get a project at the school?"

Even if the project application fails, the department can still provide some internal funding to support him.

How is that not better than him going it alone!

"This kid is really capable!" the accounting teacher said.

"Yes!" Lian Yinghua exclaimed.

"Students who come from factories are hardworking, practical, and quick-witted, but they are unwilling to speak up or ask for help."

"These are all advantages... but relying too much on yourself isn't good either!"

Zhang Guozhen looked at Lian Yinghua: "Yinghua, ask him to come over for a chat later and tell him that the school has resources and teachers, and that he shouldn't have to shoulder everything by himself."

“Okay!” Lian Yinghua nodded.

……

When Tao Runze found Chen Luyang
Chen Luyang had just managed to coax and plead with the boy with glasses to get back three school magazines and the negatives of the last photo from him.

These little glasses are really something.

There are so many new school magazines on the table, why not give yourself a few more!
Stingy.

But actually, it's pretty much the same.

Including the ones Gao Xiaolin and the others helped him take from the girls' dormitory, he now has seven or eight school magazines in his hands.

Not only enough to mail home,
Furthermore, one copy can be mailed to the factory manager, one to the Bureau of Industry and Commerce, one to the provincial hospital, and another to the provincial government.
perfect!

Just as Chen Luyang was about to head to the post office, Tao Runze called out to him.

"Xiao Chen, Teacher Lian is looking for you!"

"Looking for me? Do you know what it is?" Chen Luyang was taken aback.

"I didn't say anything, I just told you to come to the office when you have time, don't put it off."

"Row."

Chen Luyang agreed as she ran back to her dormitory and gathered the documents.

Perfect timing! He also has something he needs to discuss with Lian Yinghua and the others!

In the past few days, Chen Luyang has been thinking about applying for school programs every day.

After much deliberation, he drafted an application for a pilot project on the standardization of automotive parts, intending to have it reviewed and approved by Lian Yinghua and her team before submitting it to the university's research department.

Holding the application form, Chen Luyang hurriedly ran to the Economics Department office.

"Teacher Lian, you wanted to see me?"

Chen Luyang gently knocked on the office door.

"Come."

Lian Yinghua looked up, smiled at him, and waved.

"Sit here."

Chen Luyang put down her schoolbag and sat properly at the desk.
The first thing Lian Yinghua said left him a little bewildered.

"We read the school magazine. I was saying you were so tired from watching class lately that you could barely keep your eyes open, but we never knew you were secretly doing something big!"

As she spoke, Lian Yinghua pointed to an article in the school magazine and asked with a smile:
"Why didn't you mention any of these things to the department?"

"what……?"

Chen Luyang was stunned for a moment.

Why would I mention my own repair shop to the department?

The economics department and the mechanics department are usually completely unrelated, so I bet they don't even know who Zhang Diancai is.

What's the point of mentioning it to the department?

Besides, he figured this out on his own from the very beginning, so how could he dare to report it to the teacher?

If I said it out loud, people would probably think that this student doesn't study economics and is just doing some "crooked ways".

But seeing that even Yinghua had asked, Chen Luyang had no choice but to bite the bullet and say:

"Teacher... these are all things that happen in my own repair shop, and they have nothing to do with our profession. I just tried to figure them out on my own first, and I didn't dare to trouble you."

Before he could finish speaking, Lian Yinghua interrupted him.

"How can you say it's okay!"

"Isn't what you're doing now a typical example of combining microeconomics with industrial practice?"

As Lian Yinghua spoke, she tapped her finger twice on the table.

“If you had come to us a couple of days earlier, we could have helped you apply for a project. Even if you couldn’t get a university-level project, the department could have approved some funding and helped you get a data center. It would have been much easier than you running around alone.”

Chen Luyang opened her mouth in astonishment.

At that time, he was attending philosophy classes and translating manuscripts. Even if he dozed off in class, the teacher would call him over and give him a lecture.

How could I dare to tell my teacher about my collaboration with the Department of Mechanics?

Besides, I've only been at the school for a little over two months and I don't know anything.

If it weren't for Zhang Diancai's reminder, he wouldn't have known that he could apply for projects from the school.

However, since the other party has already brought this up,
Chen Luyang took out an application form from her bag and whispered, "Teacher Lian, I just wrote an application a few days ago. I'm thinking of trying to see if I can apply for a small research project at the school..."

"Please take a look and see if the format and content are suitable?"

Lian Yinghua was taken aback.

He really didn't expect that, no sooner had he said "the project should be approved" than this kid pulled out an entire application form from his bag.

"You finished writing it a long time ago?"

Lian Yinghua's eyes widened. "You didn't wait until I finished speaking before taking it out, did you?"

Chen Luyang is truly innocent this time.

"No, this is something I just drafted in the last couple of days. I was thinking of bringing it to you for a look since I didn't have class today. But as soon as I walked in, you brought up the project proposal."

He paused, then smiled ingratiatingly and said, "I guess I just happened to be lucky."

Lian Yinghua pointed at him helplessly.

"You little rascal, you've got a knack for picking the right time."

"The title you've chosen... sounds a bit like a parts list from a repair shop."

Looking at the words "Repair Shop Standard Parts Testing Application Plan," Lian Yinghua frowned:

"That's way too blunt."

As he spoke, he picked up a pen and wrote a few words on the paper:
"Exploration of Common Automotive Parts Generalization and Standardization Practices: An Experimental Study Based on Joint Trial Production by Factories and Universities"

"What do you think of this title?" Lian Yinghua asked.

Chen Luyang peeked out and his eyes lit up immediately.

"Much better than mine!"
"Teacher, your title is professional in style and also highlights the collaborative practice."

Without even looking up, Lian Yinghua said, "The title isn't very good, but the commentary is quite good."
