Siheyuan: Start with a big car

So finding outstanding college students has become a difficult part of this job.

As an individual, it is impossible for Li Weidong to deal with those universities. Although poverty alleviation workshops are now well-known in factories across the country, few people know about them in colleges and universities.

Those professors and the sons of geniuses didn't even know his name, Li Weidong.

If he rashly went to recruit under his own banner, he might not even be able to get in to the university.

This is also the real reason why Li Weidong came to Director Yang.

As an experienced old factory director, Director Yang instantly understood what Li Weidong meant.

He smiled and said: "Don't worry, Comrade Weidong, I will contact those universities immediately. We must let them try their best to send the best talents to our steel rolling mill."

Li Weidong took out a cigarette from his pocket, handed it to Director Yang, and lit it for him before continuing: "Thank you for lending a helping hand at a critical moment, but I have a new idea. That is to set up a laboratory."

"Laboratory?" Director Yang looked at Li Weidong with some suspicion.

Li Weidong now has a studio in the steel rolling mill. And the kind that operates independently, without the constraints of a rolling mill.

Is setting up a laboratory superfluous in this situation?

In addition, although Director Yang is not a scientific researcher, as the director, he also knows that the laboratory is a large-scale institution, and it is not an easy task to fully establish it.

In addition to requiring massive funds, it also requires a large number of outstanding talents.

Therefore, generally only a few of the most well-known universities in China have laboratories.

Director Yang looked at Li Weidong and said, "Comrade Weidong's laboratory is very difficult. Should we take a break for now?"

Li Weidong is not the kind of foolhardy person. He certainly knows how difficult it is to establish a laboratory alone in this day and age.

but.

Nowadays, large-scale laboratories abroad have been built one after another. They have gathered the best talents and have the most advanced equipment. It will not be long before they can develop the most advanced technology.

Most domestic laboratories are relatively old.

Neither the personnel structure nor the arrangement of the laboratory can keep up with the development of the times.

It won't be long before it will be surpassed by foreign laboratories.

Once this kind of transcendence is achieved, it will be difficult to catch up.

Therefore, it is particularly important to establish your own laboratory before foreign laboratories are fully formed, and then achieve outstanding results in various fields, eventually forming an overwhelming scientific and technological advantage.

Of course, it is not convenient to say these words to Director Yang.

"Director, you are worrying too much. The laboratory I want to build this time is not a large laboratory, it is just similar to a studio. However, I require independent accounting rights and an independent office space."

Hearing this, Director Yang breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Li Weidong's idea is also outrageous, and he almost wants to build his own little kingdom in the steel rolling mill, but he has made so many contributions to the steel rolling mill, such a small request is not too much.

"This is easy to handle. There is a yard in the north park of our steel mill. It used to be a maintenance workshop. Later, the maintenance workshop was moved to the auto repair shop, so the yard became empty. It can be used as an office space for your laboratory.

In addition, your studio is originally independently accounted for. Now we can completely open a laboratory in the name of the studio. In this case, we do not need the approval of the Standing Committee. "

Director Yang is also a very flexible person and quickly thought of a solution.

Of course Li Weidong agreed immediately.

Although the conditions of the laboratory are difficult and the scale is small, everything is done from small to large. He believes that as long as he comes up with a few technologies that can change the world, it will not be long before the laboratory can gain the attention of the ministries and commissions. can develop and grow.

Li Weidong had gotten everything he asked for and was about to turn around and leave.

Director Yang suddenly asked: "Comrade Weidong, what do you want to name this laboratory? It can't just be called a laboratory."

Li Weidong thought for a moment and smiled: "Red Star Laboratory."

"Okay, okay, the red star of the name shines in the east. This laboratory has a good name." Although Director Yang didn't know Li Weidong's ambitions, he was full of praise for the name.

Director Yang is now the head of the first factory and controls almost all the power in the steel rolling mill.

With his cooperation. The Planning Department quickly assigned the north yard of the steel rolling mill to Li Weidong.

three days later.

Li Weidong came to the north yard accompanied by comrades from the Planning Department.

"Director Li, this yard is a bit shabby. Please don't mind. Don't worry, we have arranged for the comrades from the logistics department to clean it up. I think they will be clean for you soon."

The comrade from the planning department opened the door as he spoke.

Even though it was Li Weidong, he was mentally prepared, but he was still shocked.

The old iron door is stained with rust, as if telling the traces of time. The ground in the yard is uneven, with exposed bricks and overgrown weeds.

The walls of the factory building are covered with traces of time, and the mottled walls reveal a heavy sense of history. The glass on the windows had long been broken, leaving only a few broken frames swaying in the wind.

The yard was filled with discarded equipment and materials, some rusted or decayed.

There was a smell of dampness and decay in the air, which made people frown.

Qin Jingru frowned and said: "Brother Wei Dong, this yard is too shabby. If you need a yard, we can rent a yard elsewhere. I heard that the tractor factory in the suburbs is going to be relocated, and the yard there is a new one. Yes, and the price is very cheap. Based on the strength of our poverty alleviation workshop, it is completely affordable to rent it.”

Li Weidong put his hands behind his back, shook his head and said, "If necessary, this yard must be in the steel rolling mill. It doesn't matter even if it's a little broken. We can clean it up, okay?"

Qin Jingru was stunned for a moment by this statement, but she soon understood.

Although this yard is dilapidated, it is the property of the steel rolling mill. It is managed by the steel rolling mill and managed by the security department of the steel rolling mill.

The rolling mills are large state-owned factories.

This is what is called leaning against a big tree to enjoy the shade.

After Chen Jingru understood it, she seemed particularly positive.

He organized a group of temporary workers and began cleaning the compound.

Although the yard is dilapidated, it is not small in area. There are more than 100 rooms, which are about the same size as a small factory. Li Weidong is quite satisfied.

The job of cleaning the yard was handed over to Qin Jingru, while Li Weidong began to recruit talents.

At this time, Director Yang of the steel rolling mill had already communicated with the factory leaders of several universities in Beijing.

Li Weidong can use the name of the leader of the steel mill to go to those schools to recruit talents.

Had breakfast this morning.

Li Weidong rode his bicycle to Beijing University.

In these years, Beijing University has become the first-class university in the country. Although it is not the recruitment season at this time, many companies have already come to Beijing University to recruit talents.

Of course, the so-called recruitment of talents these days is all done through schools.

Recruiting units do not have direct contact with students.

Li Weidong knocked on the office of the Dean of Students at Beijing University.

Director Zhang of the Student Affairs Office frowned slightly when he saw a strange man walking in.

"Comrade, which unit are you from? What are you doing at our school?"

There was a hint of pride in his words and attitude.

Li Weidong can understand, after all, he has the right to send students, and the following employers are begging him.

Li Weidong was not the kind of young man with an exposed head. He took out a packet of Great China from his pocket, pulled out one and handed it over.

"No need, I'm not used to smoking cigarettes." Director Zhang took out a cigar from his pocket and lit it.

Cigars are rarely sold in the market these days, and being able to get cigars is a status symbol in itself.

It seems that Director Zhang is still a well-founded person.

I guess this kind of position is very important, and most people really can't do it.

Li Weidong didn't pay attention, put the cigarette in his pocket, then took out his identification document from the canvas bag and handed it over.

"Director Zhang. I am the director of the Red Star Laboratory. I want to recruit some talents for your school, and I hope you can help arrange it."

Director Zhang took the document and studied it carefully for a while, his brows knitted into knots.

"Red Star Laboratory, why haven't I heard of this name?"

"Our laboratory has just been established and has not yet been officially opened to the public, so it is normal to say that you have never heard of this name."

"A newly established laboratory?" Director Zhang looked down for a while, then raised his head and said, "So you are from a steel rolling mill, and your factory produces rolled steel. The talents needed should also be in related majors. We in Beijing There is no such major in the university, you can go to the nearby industrial school and ask."

Li Weidong heard the excuse and explained calmly: "Although our Red Star Laboratory was established by the steel rolling mill, it is two units from the steel rolling mill. The research projects in the laboratory are also completely different from the steel rolling mill. I This time I came here to recruit some talents in electromechanical design. These are all stated in the documents."

"And our laboratory provides generous benefits to every researcher. Every researcher who just joins the laboratory can receive a salary of 100 yuan per month, and a monthly subsidy of 5 pounds of pork."

Although the salary of researchers these days is very high, the salary of those young researchers who have just graduated is relatively low because of their relatively low level, so their monthly salary is only fifty or sixty yuan at most.

In addition, he can get 5 kilograms of pork every month, which has surpassed most units in Beijing.

It stands to reason that these conditions are already excellent.

But Director Zhang's face was still ugly.

He handed the document to Li Weidong and said: "Comrade, I just said that our school does not have the talents you need. You can go to the technical technical school next door to have a look."

Li Weidong finally understood now that Director Zhang obviously disliked the name of Red Star Laboratory of the steel rolling mill not being loud enough.

I feel that if students from my school enter this laboratory, I will lose the people from my school.

If they don't want to, we can't force them. Li Weidong smiled at Director Zhang and said, "That's okay. Let's cooperate again if we have the opportunity in the future."

After saying that, he packed up the documents, turned around and left.

A clerk nearby saw Li Weidong's figure disappearing at the door, turned around to look at Director Zhang, and said with a smile: "Old Zhang, don't our school still have twenty or thirty students in these two majors who have not been assigned this year? They are not assigned I don’t want to go to major ministries, but want to work in the laboratory. That person just now is from the laboratory, why don’t you get these places?”

Director Zhang laughed loudly and said: "Are you kidding? This person is from the so-called Red Star Laboratory? We have never heard of this laboratory. And it was built in a steel factory, what good can it do? The students we need are top-notch students in the country. If they enter this laboratory, it will be a disgrace to our reputation."

An old woman next to me echoed: "Yes, factories are being built all over the country now, and many of these factories are of relatively inferior quality. They don't even want to urinate. Let's see how good they are. How dare they do it?" Come to our school to recruit talents.”

Then a burst of laughter broke out in the office.

Li Weidong did not go far. When he heard the movement in the office, he shook his head with a wry smile.

These people are really using chicken feathers as arrows.

But he didn't mean to start a fight with them.

This world is a world where strength is king.

Without strength, you will always be looked down upon.

However, Li Weidong did not give up his recruitment plan.

His requirement for talents is to have a shortage rather than an excess.

To become a world-class laboratory, Red Star Laboratory must have the best talents in the world.

Standing on the campus of Beijing University, looking at the students coming and going, Li Weidong turned his glasses and thought of a good idea.

Today is Friday.

The third uncle was originally supposed to be in school, but the day before yesterday he heard that Haizi was cleaning the canals, so he took half a day off.

The reason is simple. Every time the ditch is cleaned, a large number of fish float up.

He doesn't need to fish there with a fishing rod at all, he just needs to use a hand net to scoop up fish next to him.

I have to say that the third uncle’s choice was very wise.

In just one morning, he caught dozens of kilograms of fish, and his harvest was dozens of times greater than before.

When he got home, the third uncle shouted at the top of his lungs: "Old lady, old lady, come out quickly. This is the fish I caught today."

The third aunt was cooking in the house. When she heard the sound and came out, she saw that half of the bucket of fish was in the bucket. She was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth.

"Oh, old man, why did you catch so many fish today?"

"Of course, I asked for leave specifically to go fishing. If I lose less, wouldn't I be sorry that I spent so much thought on it."

After the third uncle finished counting, he urged the third aunt to quickly clean out all the fish.

So many fish. It will definitely not be sold for a while.

Just clean the fish and dry it under the eaves, dry it into dried fish, and wait until the cold weather to sell it, so that you can sell it at a good price.

The third aunt didn't care about cooking now, and squatted in front of the eaves to get busy.

The third uncle, who had worked hard all morning, sat under the eaves with an enamel jar of tea and squinted his eyes to rest. (End of chapter)
