Siheyuan: Craftsmen of a Great Country

Chapter 248: Being shut out and making things worse

After lunch, Jiang Chen got into Xiao Yang's car and went straight to the Ministry of Industry to convey the good news of the successful development of alloy steel.

Jiang Chen from the Ministry of Industry also came many times.

But today's Ministry of Industry seems a little different from usual.

There are many more security guards at the door than usual, and they are ready.

Something seems to have happened.

But Jiang Chen didn't care about this. It was probably that some big leader came to the Ministry of Industry.

With the lesson learned last time, Jiang Chen directly said to the security guard: "Hello, comrade, I am Jiang Chen from the No. 3 Steel Plant. I came to see Vice Minister Zhou to report something."

The unfamiliar security guard looked at Jiang Chen and said expressionlessly: "Hello, Comrade Jiang Chen, the Ministry of Industry is holding an important meeting today and we are not accepting outsiders for the time being."

Jiang Chen was stunned: "What important meeting?"

Didn't he call me this morning and say that Zhou Xinjian was at the Ministry of Industry?
Why are you having a meeting in the afternoon and not even letting me in?

The security guard said: "I don't know about this. If you want to see Vice Minister Zhou, come back next Monday."

Jiang Chen nodded: "Oh, then you can come back next Monday."

After that, we prepared to meet the car and go back to the No. 3 Steel Factory.

Before getting in the car, his eyes casually glanced in the direction of the conference room of the Ministry of Industry.

Ok?
With this sweep, he could vaguely see the situation inside with his eagle eyes.

Then he used all his strength, opened his eagle eyes, and looked towards the conference room.

Through the glass of the conference room, he saw a tall, thin man wearing gold-rimmed glasses, explaining something eloquently in front of the blackboard.

On the blackboard, the optimal ratio of tungsten-chromium alloy steel is clearly written.

The following is the specific ratio data.

Jiang Chen's head buzzed.
Slender man, gold-rimmed glasses, alloy steel, matching
Chen Tongshan?
Although he has never met Chen Tongshan, Lu Yuehua told him about his appearance.

Normally, he might not be able to recognize it, but together with the alloy steel and the matching ratio, he could basically be sure that this person was Chen Tongshan.

Hurry up, hurry up, the research on tungsten-chromium alloy steel is still being overtaken by others?

It stands to reason that Chen Tongshan would never be able to figure out the ratio of alloy steel in such a short period of time, unless he also mastered the same method as Jiang Chen.

But if he was such a genius, he wouldn't have learned nothing after so many years of research.

Could it be that someone inside the laboratory leaked this method to Chen Tongshan?

No, his ratio is wrong.

It can be seen from the data that the ratio proposed by Chen Tongshan is far from the optimal ratio.

The quality of the steel refined under this ratio is only much better than the steel accidentally produced in the Shuchuan Steelmaking Blast Furnace, and it is only a little bit worse than the alloy steel that Jiang Chen and the others experimentally refined.

But why did he want any wrong data to report?

The Ministry of Industry was also asked to strengthen the guards in a serious manner to prevent outsiders from entering.

It seems that the person who came here is evil. Chen Tongshan just took some data and took the credit?

The reason why the guards were strengthened must have been arranged by Lu Tianyi.

The purpose is not to keep the alloy steel ratio secret, but to prevent him from entering, just to gain time.

As long as today's meeting passes and the credit for the successful development of alloy steel is welded to Chen Tongshan, even if Jiang Chen provides better data in the future, it can only be regarded as improvement, not development.

Improvements and innovations have completely different impacts.

This is such an aboveboard robbery.

I don’t know if Zhou Xinjian can withstand it.

Jiang Chen looked at the conference room and frowned.

Due to the angle, he could only see Chen Tongshan and the blackboard, but could not see the situation below, and he did not know whether Zhou Xinjian was participating in the meeting.

After a long while, Jiang Chen looked away from the conference room and asked the security guard in front of him: "Comrade, I have something important to ask Vice Minister Zhou. Can you use your phone to call Vice Minister Zhou?"

The security guard shook his head: "No, our phone is an internal phone and cannot be used by outsiders."

Jiang Chen nodded and said nothing. He turned around and returned to the car: "Let's go find the chief."

Since Lu Tianyi made the arrangements, he would definitely not let Zhou Xinjian receive the call.

Since you have resorted to these unreasonable tactics, Jiang Chen has escalated the matter.

Who said he needs credit and contribution now?

If he lost to Chen Tongshan in a legitimate competition, he wouldn't say anything.

But he couldn't accept this way of grabbing credit.

As for why we wanted to find the chief, it was because he was ultimately a person with cutting-edge technology, and he was the one who tried his best to protect the safety of important scientists and cadres after the wind started.

Xiao Yang didn't ask the reason, started the car directly and drove towards Xiyuan.

On the way, Jiang Chen began to think about who leaked the information to Chen Tongshan, which made him rush back to Sijiu City to report in front of them.

Not many people knew that Jiang Chen was going to report to the Ministry of Industry today.

Apart from those who participated in the experiment, there were only Yang Weimin, Tao Yuan, Luo Xue Wenwan and others beside Jiang Chen.

Obviously this matter cannot be provided by the people who participated in the experiment, because they all know the experimental data. If they leak the secret, they will definitely give the data to Chen Tongshan.

Chen Tongshan would not report data with such a large error.

Liu Yue and Luo Xue were the closest people to Jiang Chen, and they had no interaction with Chen Tongshan, so it couldn't be them.

As for gentleness, it is even more impossible.

After all, Lori is Zhou Xinjian's apprentice, and Wen Wan won't do that kind of thing.

As for Yang Weimin and Tao Yuan, they would never do such harmful and unprofitable things.

After thinking for a long time, I couldn't figure it out.

He never thought that it was Lu Yuehua who took the time out just to vent his anger.

Correct answers are ruled out at the outset.

The vehicle was stopped by guards at the gate of Xiyuan.

Jiang Chen got out of the car and expressed his intention: "Hello, comrade, I am Jiang Chen, who is responsible for the development of alloy steel at the No. 8 Steel Plant. I am a level engineer. The chief has met me before."

"Now the research and development of alloy steel that I am responsible for has achieved significant results, and I need to report to the chief."

The guard frowned: "Industrial matters can be reported directly to the Ministry of Industry. Why are you here?"

"Did the chief call you here?"

Jiang Chen shook his head: "That's not true, it's just that the hardness of this kind of alloy steel is more than ten times that of ordinary steel, which is of great significance to the aerospace and military industry."

"The Ministry of Industry is holding an important meeting recently and does not accept outsiders. The time is urgent, so I came to report to the chief."

The guard didn't understand what alloy steel was, but he still understood the words ten times harder and aerospace and military industry:

"The chief is busy with affairs. I need to make a phone call and report to the secretariat first, and let them make a decision. Comrade, wait a moment."

After saying that, the guard went to make phone calls.

If the chief receives the information, he will most likely make time to meet with him.

But Jiang Chen was not sure whether or when this information could be delivered to the chief.

Fortunately, he didn't wait too long.

About ten minutes later, a guard came out: "Comrade Jiang Chen, the chief please come over."

Jiang Chen felt happy: "Thank you!"

Then he turned to Xiao Yang and said, "Wait for me outside."

Cars from the No. 3 Steel Plant cannot enter Xiyuan.

Xiao Yang nodded and drove the car to find an open space to park.

After strict inspection, Jiang Chen followed the guards into Xiyuan.

Along the way, Jiang Chen followed the guards closely and did not look around.
