Rebirth of the 1980s: The Military Industry Empire

The conference room was on the third floor of the 960 Factory's office building.

After more than ten years of wind and rain, the red brick exterior had begun to become mottled, and in the summer, it would be covered with vines.

Someone had once suggested cleaning it up, but the idea was rejected because the vines provided better concealment.

Due to the lack of painting in recent years, the paint on the wooden windows had also lost its former luster, and the glass was stained with dirt.

When sunlight shone in, the dust in the room swayed back and forth in the light.

At the front of the conference room, beneath four portraits of great men, sat Zhu Zizhong, the director of the 960 Factory.

He was a tall, thin middle-aged man who was now looking at the people below with a serious expression.

The cigarette in his right hand had burned down to a large pile of ash, which fell onto the cement floor beside him.

On his left and right were the deputy directors: Zhou Yongfei, in charge of production, and Yang Zhaoxiang, in charge of personnel.

Below them were a group of section chiefs and workshop directors.

This level of meeting was considered a formal factory affairs meeting for the 960 Factory.

"A group of our factory's employees' children are idle all day long, stealing chickens and dogs, seriously disrupting the factory's discipline.

Everyone sees each other all the time, so the security section usually doesn't manage them well, especially since it's not like the old days.

As a result, these employees' children have become more and more daring, and have finally brewed a big mistake."

Mu Guijin, the chief of the security section, spoke from below: "This time, we must not tolerate it!

Stealing guns is a serious crime, and in the past, it would have meant execution!

Now, our security section can only offend people by reporting Qin Yang's gun theft and letting the authorities decide the punishment.

This will also let the other employees' children know that many things are not allowed!"

"Let's wait for Old Qin to come back; maybe it's a misunderstanding.

They're all just kids; what bad intentions could they have?" Zhou Yongfei said.

"Old Zhou, that's what we thought at first, that they were just a bunch of kids, but the more we indulged them, the bolder they became.

This time, they've caused a big disaster, and they deserve a lesson!" Yang Zhaoxiang said.

The technology section was under Zhou Yongfei's jurisdiction, and the security section was under Yang Zhaoxiang's jurisdiction.

Now, the conflict was out in the open.

Director Yang wanted to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys!

The people sitting below didn't speak, but their hearts were as clear as mirrors.

Three years ago, Yang Zhaoxiang's son, Yang Wangcai, graduated from high school.

Taking advantage of the factory's good performance and large worker shortage at the time, he entered the 960 Factory and became a formal worker.

Those employees' children who joined the factory in the same batch as his son also got in, but later on, this preferential treatment no longer existed.

If the employees' children wanted to enter the factory as workers, their fathers had to retire and they would take their fathers' place.

Normally, being a formal worker was already pretty good, but Yang Wangcai complained that the production line was too hard and told Yang Zhaoxiang several times.

Yang Zhaoxiang then began to arrange for his son to enter the technology section.

Wouldn't it be easy for a deputy director in charge of personnel to arrange for his own son?

Wouldn't those workshop directors and section chiefs have to greet him with smiling faces?

However, Qin Baoguo was different; he was stubborn.

As a result, he couldn't understand the drawings.

So, Qin Baoguo sent Yang Wangcai back.

For Yang Zhaoxiang, this matter was simply a great humiliation, but he was patient enough and never lost his temper, seeing Qin Baoguo still smiling at him.

A gentleman takes revenge, even ten years is not too late.

This time, he finally had the opportunity, seized his son Qin Baoguo's weakness, and tormented him fiercely!

After leaving the technology section, Yang Wangcai turned around and entered the security section, becoming a staff member, with a haughty demeanor that seemed even more impressive than his father.

That engineering shovel that hit the back of Qin Yang's head was wielded by Yang Wangcai.

If Yang Wangcai had a Type 56 rifle with a bayonet in his hand at the time, he might have really stabbed a hole in him.

Many people cannot be offended!

Especially smiling tigers like Yang Zhaoxiang, who smile on the surface, but in reality, as long as they find the opportunity, they will kill those who offend him.

"Director Zhu, our security section's idea is to deal with this matter severely to prevent similar incidents from happening again and to teach these employees' children a lesson."

After Yang Zhaoxiang finished speaking, he looked at Director Zhu Zizhong.

Zhu Zizhong frowned.

Of course, he knew the conflicts between his subordinates, but the nature of this matter was bad enough, and it was no longer appropriate for him to mediate.

When Yang Zhaoxiang notified everyone to attend the meeting, the matter had already escalated and could not be resolved.

Alas, it seems that he can only offend Old Qin.

Just as Zhu Zizhong was about to make a decision, he saw Qin Baoguo and Liu Yong stride in.

"Leaders and comrades, the matter has been investigated."

Liu Yong said excitedly, holding a design drawing in his hand: "Qin Yang's gun theft was purposeful; he wanted to help us with the military-to-civilian project."

What?

These words were like a thunderbolt, striking everyone.

What are you saying?

Qin Yang, that delinquent youth, wants to help the factory?

"Is that true?" Zhu Zizhong asked quickly, delighted.

"Yes, this is his design drawing; he has proposed a solution that is most suitable for us: using our existing production line to produce air guns!"

As he spoke, Liu Yong had already walked to the small blackboard on the side and hung the design drawing Qin Yang had drawn on it.

A beautiful air gun design drawing appeared in front of everyone.

"This air gun looks very similar to our Type 56 semi-automatic rifle."

"That's right.

Qin Yang disassembled our Type 56 semi-automatic rifle, studied it, and then drew this design drawing," Liu Yong continued.

Qin Baoguo didn't say anything and just sat back in his seat.

After all, it was his son, and it was inconvenient for him to speak.

It was best for Liu Yong to speak on his behalf.

"That's not right," Yang Zhaoxiang pretended to be surprised.

"I haven't heard that Qin Yang knows how to draw design drawings, and he even draws them so well.

Is this drawing really drawn by him?"

Without showing any signs, he pointed out the key point.

Yang Zhaoxiang seemed to have no bad intentions, but he still didn't give up his original idea.

Want to overturn Qin Yang's case?

Don't dream!

This drawing must have been drawn by Qin Baoguo to clear Qin Yang's suspicion.

"When he was drawing, Little Wang from the security section was watching next to him, and he and the others in the drafting room can all testify," Qin Baoguo said.

"If I wrote it, I will resign and leave the 960 Factory now!"

"Since that's the case, then Qin Yang also had good intentions, and the gun theft was also for the factory's military-to-civilian conversion.

I think this matter should be dropped.

Where is Qin Yang?" Zhu Zizhong asked.

"He's still in the detention room."

"Release him."

"No!" Yang Zhaoxiang finally couldn't help it.

The smiling tiger tore off his original mask, revealing his ferocious teeth: "I don't believe it!

Even if this drawing was really drawn by Qin Yang, it won't work!

Unless he can process a qualified air gun according to the drawing!"

Although doing so would offend Director Zhu Zizhong, he absolutely couldn't let go of such a good opportunity!

He had to send Qin Baoguo's son in for a few years to relieve his anger from the past few years!

Zhu Zizhong was soft-hearted and a nice guy.

After this matter passed, Yang Zhaoxiang could at most go to his door to explain his difficulties and express his good intentions, and he would be forgiven by Zhu Zizhong.

Anyway, the opportunity could not be missed.

As for falling out with Qin Baoguo?

Humph, he had already fallen out with him when he kicked Yang Wangcai out, so let him regret it now!
