I painted an aircraft carrier on the courtyard house for Dongda University.

These words stunned not only Zhou Weiguo, but also everyone around him. Director Wang, who entered later, couldn't help but ask, "Old Chen, is this appropriate?"

The Level 3 engineer surnamed Chen looked at Zhou Weiguo with a mocking smile and said, "It has to be suitable. Hurry up and get started. Don't waste time, kid. So many engineers are waiting for you. I want to see what you're really capable of."

Zhou Weiguo rolled his eyes helplessly, too lazy to even ask, and picked up his tools to get started.

Fortunately, his fitter skills included machine tool repair. He walked to the first machine tool, turned it on to listen to the sound, turned off the power, lifted the back cover, tinkered with it inside, turned it on again, tested a workpiece, and said "Done". The whole process took no more than 5 minutes.

Although everyone present understood that these malfunctions were deliberately set up, this kid was just too fast!

Even Old Chen nodded with a smile.

Next was the second machine, which was a bit more difficult. He opened the machine tool, listened for a while, then disassembled the machine tool, adjusted the paper wheel shaft, and took off a gear. When everyone saw it, the gear had broken teeth.

The recorder next to him looked on, then handed the notebook to Engineer Song, bewildered, saying, "This problem wasn't recorded?"

This guy took an ordinary steel billet from the table next to him and processed, disassembled, installed, and tested it on the newly repaired machine tool.

This series of actions left a group of engineers looking at each other in bewilderment.

Zhou Weiguo handled the third to ninth machine tools the same way. Whether the malfunction was intentionally set up or caused by the machine itself, he could fix it in no time after listening to the instructions.

Finally, they reached the last machine. Zhou Weiguo cursed inwardly with boredom: "Isn't this just deliberately messing with us? It's all trivial malfunctions. Although the problems are different, it's just a waste of time!" What he didn't notice was that the engineers around him were already looking at him with shock.

Zhou Weiguo's eyes darted around as he thought: You've wasted my time, so I'll have to give you a piece of my mind too.

He looked at the last machine tool, a wicked thought creeping into his mind.

Suddenly, an improvement plan for this machine tool popped into my memory. After careful recall and confirmation, it really was the Goose 1A62 lathe in front of me.

In Zhang Wei's technical experience, he truly witnessed how this machine tool was later successfully improved by Chinese engineers. Most importantly, the improvement process wasn't complicated; it simply involved adjusting the gear precision and modifying the six-part divider. The performance immediately soared, noise levels decreased, and precision reached world-class levels. Subsequently, this machine tool even continued to be exported, generating foreign exchange for a long period. (Please don't criticize for the sake of the plot; C260-1, Shenyang No. 1 Machine Tool Factory, my goodness!)

Thinking of this, he became excited, and the entire set of modification parameters and details clearly appeared in his mind.

He couldn't help but chuckle to himself: If I don't go all out today, I'll be letting down all of you who've gone through all this trouble!

He immediately started disassembling the machine tool. In no time, Zhou Weiguo had filled the table with all the internal parts of the machine tool. Then he measured, polished, drilled, and cut.

The surrounding engineers looked completely bewildered, except for Engineer Song and the Level 3 engineer who huddled together and stared intently.

Zhou Weiguo felt that the parts were almost finished, but the dimensions were missing a few of the most important parts, which needed to be replaced with high-strength steel.

He rushed to Engineer Song and said urgently, "Uncle Song, please get me some high-strength steel, I need it urgently!"

Song Gong Er suppressed the question he wanted to ask and ordered someone to fetch it immediately. Soon after, a small cart of high-strength steel for machine tools was brought over.

Zhou Weiguo immediately started processing on a 1A63 machine tool that he had just repaired, and quickly processed several more parts.

The surrounding engineers were all speechless with amazement at his speed and precision, marveling at Zhou Weiguo's incredible skill.

Ignoring everything else, Zhou Weiguo pushed the workpiece back to the machine tool and began applying oil and installing it.

In just 3 hours, he restored the machine tool to its original state.

Zhou Weiguo excitedly turned on the machine. With a loud bang, Zhou Weiguo first listened carefully to the sound of the machine tool running.

The sound made his pores feel comfortable and open up. He then took another steel billet and started processing it directly on the machine tool that had just been repaired. After finishing, he quickly glanced at his watch.

Then he went to another identical machine tool and processed the same part.

After finishing, he looked at the watch again and picked up calipers to measure and compare the accuracy. A moment later, Zhou Weiguo exclaimed with a look of surprise, "It's done!"

Chen, who was standing nearby, had already noticed something was wrong. At first, he looked at Zhou Weiguo like an elder watching a junior fool around, but when he heard the sound of the machine tool running, he was shocked and then stared intently at the parts that Zhou Weiguo was processing.

Seeing that Zhou Weiguo had succeeded, Engineer Chen rushed over, grabbed Zhou Weiguo, and excitedly asked, "Really? You got a promotion? By how much? How much of a promotion?"

Zhou Weiguo said blankly, "A 30% increase in accuracy and a 10% increase in efficiency—but I think it can be improved further."

Upon hearing this, everyone present understood. This kid had actually single-handedly improved Goose's advanced machine tool right in front of a group of engineers! Gasps of astonishment rose and fell among the crowd, all feeling that they had been more shocked than in any previous year.

The engineer surnamed Chen ignored everyone else and took two steel billets, processing them alternately on two machine tools. He tested them for a long time before turning them off, and then did a series of measurements.

After a long pause, the engineer surnamed Chen rushed up to Director Wang with a serious expression: "Director Wang, this matter must be reported immediately!"

Director Wang, a seasoned veteran, nodded despite his grave expression. He turned and gave his secretary a few instructions, after which the man took off running. Director Wang also hurriedly left the workshop.

The engineer surnamed Chen said to the people present, "Please wait a moment, everyone. This matter requires careful handling, and I hope you understand."

Before long, dozens of heavily armed security personnel surrounded the workshop completely.

Zhou Weiguo, who had collapsed from exhaustion, finally recovered. Looking at the scene around him, he realized he had gone too far. With a pitiful expression, he looked at Uncle Song and said, "Uncle Song, what... what's going on here? Wasn't this a big fuss?"

Uncle Song rolled his eyes at Zhou Weiguo and said helplessly, "You're really something, aren't you? You love scaring people all the time, don't you? Tell me, what were you thinking? Do you know you've really stirred up a hornet's nest this time?"

Zhou Weiguo was also completely dumbfounded. He had only wanted to show off at first, but he didn't expect that he would end up showing off too much.

He said helplessly, "Well, it's not like you guys are bullying me, Uncle Song. I'm not stupid. You engineers are all targeting me and messing with me. Forget the Q&A session, this whole workshop of machine tools isn't meant for one person's exam. I'm not stupid. You're messing with me, can't I at least try to mess with you guys a little? Um, what's Uncle Song up to?"
