Live Stream 1980: Netizens Teach Me How to Make a Rocket by Hand

boom--!

These words struck Zhou Tiejun like a thunderbolt.

Approved personally by Qian Xuesen!

The General Headquarters endorses it!

In this base, this is the imperial sword, this is the get-out-of-jail-free card!

Zhou Tiejun felt a chill run down his spine as he looked at the red stamp.

The hand that was originally on the holster jerked away as if it had been burned.

No matter how tough he is, he wouldn't dare to confront the headquarters head-on!

"Misunderstanding...this might be a misunderstanding."

Several staff members behind Zhou Tiejun had already quietly hidden the seal behind their backs.

Zhao Laizi collapsed to the ground, his lips trembling:

"No……"

"impossible……"

"How is this possible..."

Lin Xi, however, had no intention of stopping.

Beating a drowning dog is the least you can do to show respect to bad people.

He put away the documents and turned to face the hundreds of onlookers.

The wind and snow were raging, but he seemed to radiate light.

"Fellow villagers!"

Lin Xi pointed to the dilapidated factory behind him, her voice impassioned:

"What used to be this service center?"

"It's a garbage dump! It's a sewer!"

"But what about now?"

Lin Xi looked around, her gaze intense:

"The country calls on us to 'increase production and save resources' and 'turn waste into treasure'."

"We responded to the call and transformed a pile of scrap metal into heaters to warm everyone!"

"This solved the meal problem for over a dozen unemployed youths, easing the burden on the base and saving the country money!"

"Excuse me, is this speculation and profiteering?"

The entire room fell silent.

Then, it erupted.

"Well said!"

A roar suddenly erupted from the crowd.

A technician wearing thick glasses squeezed out.

"I saw Engineer Lin on the train!" The bespectacled man exclaimed excitedly, his face flushed. "I know him! Engineer Lin was a hero in the successful launch of Red Star 2. If it weren't for him, Red Star 2 would have exploded that day..."

"Yes! I was there too!"

An older woman wearing a floral cotton-padded jacket squeezed in; she was the same woman who had looked down on Lin Xi on the train that day.

At this moment, her face was filled with both guilt and pride:

"Back then, we were too blind to recognize that it was the God of Literature descending to earth."

"Mr. Lin is a good person!"

"He's a hero of our base!"

"I can testify too!"

Zhao, the clerk from the materials department, appeared out of nowhere, raised his hand, and shouted.

"That broken-down 'man-eating machine' in Workshop 5 was repaired by Engineer Lin!"

"That pile of waste in Workshop 5 has been ignored for five years."

"It was Manager Lin who turned waste into treasure!"

"That's skill!"

The eyes of the masses are discerning, especially when someone takes the lead.

Public opinion shifted instantly from skepticism to admiration.

"Well done, Engineer Lin!"

"This is a man who gets things done!"

"I almost got tricked by that scoundrel Zhao Laizi!"

Lin Xi watched this scene with a slight smile on her lips.

He turned around, his gaze sweeping over the crowd and landing on the fat man who had been hiding behind the jeep.

Sun Dafu, manager of Dongfeng Department Store.

Even in temperatures of minus twenty degrees Celsius, Sun Dafu was drenched in sweat.

It’s over.

He intended to use someone else to do his dirty work, but the knife was too sharp, and he ended up shooting himself in the foot!

Sun Dafu's heart skipped a beat when he felt Lin Xi's ambiguous smile.

He is an extremely intelligent person, but also a master of opportunism.

In a life-or-death situation, the only thing to do is to kneel down quickly!

"Um... Section Chief Zhou!"

Sun Dafu suddenly jumped out from the crowd, his face full of righteous indignation, pointing his finger directly at Zhao Laizi on the ground.

"I want to report this too!"

"I want to expose them too!"

Zhao Laizi stared wide-eyed at his "backer":

"Manager Sun, you..."

"Shut up! You scoundrel!" Sun Dafu shouted indignantly, his acting skills were phenomenal.

"Engineer Lin was responding to the nation's call to innovate, and you're slandering an innocent man! Moreover—"

Sun Dafu pulled a component out of his pocket; it was a cheap resistance wire that had just fallen off Zhao Laizi.

"Look everyone! This is real speculation and profiteering!"

Sun Dafu held up that simple coil.

"Zhao Laizi stole industrial waste and illegally manufactured a high-powered electric furnace without any safety measures!"

"He's the culprit who burned out the transformer these past two days!"

"He's trying to murder for money!"

"What? He built the electric stove that almost burned down my house the other day?"

"Kill this bastard!"

"Turns out he was the real scourge!"

The crowd was outraged. Some even threw rotten vegetable leaves at Zhao Laizi, hitting him directly in the face.

The situation has completely reversed.

Zhou Tiejun took a deep breath.

The way he looked at Lin Xi had completely changed.

From initial scrutiny to current respect, and even...

There was also a trace of fear.

This young man is terrifying.

Not only is he technically superb and has an influential background, but his ability to manipulate events with ease is also far more sophisticated than that of a twenty-year-old.

"Someone come here!" Zhou Tiejun waved his hand, pointing at Zhao Laizi.

"Cuff him! Take him back for thorough interrogation!"

"Investigate those who slander heroes, illegally manufacture substandard electrical appliances endangering public safety, and engage in speculation and profiteering!"

"No! I refuse to accept this!"

"Sun Dafu, you tricked me!"

"Section Chief Zhou, spare my life!"

"Lin Xi! You'll die a horrible death..."

Zhao Laizi screamed as he was dragged toward the jeep.

As he passed by Lin Xi, he stared intently at her, his eyes filled with resentment and malice.

Lin Xi simply looked at him calmly and whispered something that only the two of them could hear:

"Times have changed, Master Zhao."

Those who only know how to act shamelessly are destined to be swept into the trash heap.

"Go inside and reform yourself. There's no place for you in the outside world."

The farce has come to an end.

Zhou Tiejun walked up to Lin Xi and actually gave her a proper salute.

"Mr. Lin, it was my mistake; I almost wronged an innocent person. I'm sorry."

"Section Chief Zhou, you flatter me. It's just part of your job."

Lin Xi responded with a smile, her magnanimity leaving no room for criticism.

"From now on, the security department will pay close attention to the safety of the Red Star Service Center." Zhou Tiejun left these words and then departed with his men.

This is a promise, and also a protective shield.

The crowd gradually dispersed, but as each person left, their eyes were filled with awe as they looked at the sign for the service center.

Lin Xi stood in the wind and snow, looking at the red-headed document in her hand.

"Manager Lin..." Liu Guihua was still wiping away tears, tears of joy from surviving a disaster.

"Don't cry." Lin Xi handed her the documents, her tone relaxed.

"Go, find a frame, mount it, and hang it in the most conspicuous place."

"This thing will be more effective than door gods in the future."

He turned around and looked at the group of employees behind him whose eyes were shining.

After this battle, the Red Star Service Center was no longer a despised "shelter," but a regular army with a soul.

Lin Xi's name not only represents "warm sunshine," but has also become a synonym for "absolutely not to be messed with" throughout the entire base.

"Go back to work," Lin Xi said calmly.

"You're getting this worked up over such a small thing?"

"The big things we're going to do in the future will be a hundred times more exciting than this."
