Siheyuan: Steel Mill Engineer

Chapter 166 Mass Production
"I always feel that this gold has ulterior motives." Zhou Qianqian said with a frown.

"You can see it too. It's not simple." Yang Zhenyu said happily.

"I'm not stupid. If it were you, would you run all the way to someone else's compound for no reason?" Zhou Qianqian said, rolling her eyes.

"Well, this kid does have bad intentions, especially when he gets involved with Xu Damao, that's even worse. But don't worry, this kid can't cause any trouble." Yang Zhenyu said.

"I'm not worried. I'm mainly afraid that he will do something to disgust you, which will definitely affect your work." Zhou Qianqian shook her head and said.

"It's not a big problem. Even if he wants to cause trouble, he can't affect me now because of my current position. Besides, your man is not an idiot. He has a way to deal with him." Yang Zhenyu shook his head and said.

"Okay then, I won't care about it anymore. You just take care of yourself." Zhou Qianqian nodded.

In the two years since she got married to Yang Zhenyu, Zhou Qianqian is no longer the little girl she used to be. She has seen a lot of things and her horizons have been broadened a lot.

Yang Zhenyu didn't care about some small actions. He had never made any mistakes in all these years since he started working, and all his operations were within the prescribed range. Even if someone wanted to deal with him, there was no reason.

Even in the next ten years, Yang Zhenyu felt that nothing would go wrong.

"Engineer Yang, good news. Look, there's good news in the newspaper." Yu Caiying shouted excitedly while holding the newspaper.

"What happened?" Yang Zhenyu asked.

"Mr. Yang, look, there's news from the car factory. The first domestically-made jeep has rolled off the production line." Yu Caiying said, pointing to a photo in the newspaper.

Yang Zhenyu looked at the newspaper and he could tell at a glance that the car was the one they designed. There was no mistake about it from the appearance.

"That's great. Our design has finally gone into mass production. I wonder when it can be delivered to our factory." Yang Zhenyu also laughed.

Although this project did not end up at the steel rolling mill, it was still something they designed after all. Even the design drawings of the production line were completed by them. The automobile factory only implemented the drawings.

"These cars rolled off the production line at the Hebei Automobile Factory. I guess they will be supplied to the military first, and then to the factory. But I think after all, they were designed by us, so they will always be able to send a few to us, right?" said Yu Caiying.

"If they can really deliver a few cars to us, we will go and try them out first. I have been looking forward to it for a long time." Yang Zhenyu said.

"Hey, it's such a good car, everyone is looking forward to it, but it's a pity that we don't know what the production volume is. If it can be supplied in large quantities, maybe I can drive one someday." Yu Caiying said.

"Don't even think about it in the short term. That thing will definitely not become popular in a short time. We need time." Yang Zhenyu said.

"I think so too. However, there is always a chance." Yu Caiying nodded.

"Take the newspaper and share it with everyone. Everyone has been looking forward to this car for a long time." Yang Zhenyu said.

"Okay." Yu Caiying happily took the newspaper and went out.

This car's progress, from proposal submission to prototype design to current mass production, was much faster than that of other manufacturers. It only took one year to achieve mass production. No one would believe it if you told them about it.

However, Yang Zhenyu and his team encountered difficulties in the semiconductor project. Although they were successful in the laboratory, they encountered many difficulties in the industrialization process, and no reasonable solution has been designed until now.

"Alas, if I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have taken this project." Yang Zhenyu sighed. It's not that he was complaining, but the current industrial level is not enough, and many materials cannot be provided, especially many special materials, which are really limited.

Therefore, a lot of work needs to be completed under limited conditions, which makes the work very difficult and takes a long time.

Even if everyone is working hard, it will take time to overcome various difficulties.

Fortunately, as a scientific researcher, Yang Zhenyu has long been accustomed to such work. Although it is boring, it is also full of fun.

Today is a rest day, and people have gathered in the three courtyards, front, middle and back. Young women comrades gathered in the front yard, knitting sweaters together under the shade of the trees.

That’s right, knit sweaters in the summer and wear them in the winter, because if you knit them in the winter you won’t be able to wear them in time, so you need to prepare them in advance.

As for why it is the front yard, it is because Yang Zhenyu lives in the front yard.

All the women came to find Zhou Qianqian. It wasn't about currying favor with someone. As long as they were close to her, they would definitely not suffer any loss in the future.

"Xixi, it's time for your boss to come back, right?" Qin Huairu asked.

"According to the date, it should be in the next two days. I don't know exactly when he will be back. I'm afraid it depends on their progress." Zhou Qianqian shook her head and said.

"Oh, it's still better for Xixi's family. The people there are energetic, earn a lot, and can bring back some local specialties from outside from time to time. I'm so envious of them." Yu Li sighed.

"You may be envious, but it's too late." Qin Huairu said jokingly.

"Of course I'm envious. Don't you, Sister Qin, envy me?" Yu Li asked back.

"I'm envious. Of course I wouldn't be envious. Not to mention our compound, even in our factory, who wouldn't be envious? But Zhenyu only likes Xixi. Alas, there's no point in your envy." Qin Huairu said.

"Ha ha……"

The group of women all laughed, and no one took the joke seriously.

Ever since Qin Huairu was officially promoted to a Level 1 worker, her income plus the pension was enough to support her family. She often chatted with these women or worked with them.

People also changed from Jia's sister-in-law to Sister Qin. Since the Jia family no longer exists, the title has also changed.

"By the way, Sister Qin, you can upgrade to level 2, right?" Sha Meifeng asked.

"It's too early. Although I have mastered the technology, you also know that if you want to be promoted to level 2, you need at least five years of work experience. I have only been here for more than a year. Unless the factory makes an exception for me again, I will have a long way to go." Qin Huairu shook her head.

"I estimate that the factory will conduct an assessment soon. We now have nearly 20,000 people in the main factory alone. I heard that there are vacancies for both senior and mid-level workers. The factory will definitely give priority to selecting from our workers, so an assessment is inevitable." Sha Meifeng said.

"Who told you that?" Qin Huairu perked up immediately. She was still confident in her skills. If there was really an assessment, she might be able to apply for it.
