Return to 78: Why are all the Americans panicking about doing scientific research?

"Director, please calm down. I am a rough man and I speak like this. I really don't mean to make you angry."

After being scolded harshly, Wang Fendou finally calmed down.

At the same time, I remembered that there were other people in the office.

"go out!"

Fang Boyan scolded with a cold face.

Wang Fendou didn't dare to say much, he apologized and stepped back.

"I have a meeting to attend soon, please report anything as soon as possible."

Fang Boyan was in a bad mood and had a gloomy face all the time.

Even the county machinery factory earned US$190,000 in foreign exchange for the city.

Fang Boyan still couldn't be happy.

Being able to earn foreign exchange should be a good thing that makes everyone happy.

However, problems also arise.

Other machinery factories, agricultural machinery factories, and steel mills were all operating as if they had been injected with chicken blood.

He comes over every few days to sound out the situation.

Either they wanted to ask about the county machinery factory’s foreign exchange-earning products, or they wanted to contact foreign businessmen.

Devil foreign businessman!

Others may not know, but Fang Boyan knows it very well.

The foreigners who did business with the County Machinery Factory were not businessmen at all.

He's an active-duty soldier from the fucking Sang Country!

Exported goods can be large or small, and there is nothing wrong with calling it a liquefied gas tank.

It is called a weapon, and it is indeed very powerful.

"Director Fang, although Director Wang has a reckless personality, he does it all for work."

"Talking back and questioning superiors is definitely something that should be criticized."

"But since he is dedicated to the public interest, please forgive him once."

Fang Boyan frowned and looked at Lin Kaifeng.

The fact that he could say this proved that Lin Kaifeng knew what happened in the office.

Faced with an opponent who wanted to snatch the project, Lin Kaifeng actually took the initiative to make excuses for the other party.

interesting.

Lin Kaifeng smiled faintly and said, "Whether it is a county machinery factory or a city machinery factory, they all belong to the country. No matter who earns foreign exchange, it is all for the service of the country. Don't you think this is the truth?"

"You are a really interesting young man. Well, let's not talk about him anymore."

A smile gradually appeared on Fang Boyan's face.

No matter what, Wang Fendou is always Fang Boyan's subordinate.

On weekdays, even if there is no credit, it is still hard work.

Seeing the radio in Lin Kaifeng's hand, Fang Boyan joked, "Are you planning to get married? Congratulations, when is the date?"

Three turns and one ring are the standard for young people’s marriage nowadays.

Even if you can't get the whole set, you should buy one or two.

Judging from the appearance of the radio, it is obviously brand new.

"Director, you must be joking. I've been married for a long time, and my daughter is almost old enough to help with the housework."

"Then why did you buy it?"

Fang Boyan was a little puzzled.

The radio is a genuine industrial product and a scarce commodity.

Ordinary people can't see it at all.

Only young men and women who are about to get married would try to get one.

"To be honest with you, Director Fang, this radio is the latest product of our factory."

"What!"

Fang Boyan stood up suddenly.

Look carefully at the brand new radio in Lin Kaifeng's hand.

The shape of the radio is a bit strange, a bit like the wooden box radio from earlier years.

There are no signs outside.

It doesn't look like a radio produced by a regular manufacturer.

Walking out of his desk, Fang Boyan began to take a closer look at the radio.

I took a closer look and found the workmanship to be good.

It has all the parts a radio should have.

"Is it really produced by the County Machinery Factory?"

Fang Boyan said half-believingly.

"Replacement guaranteed."

Lin Kaifeng put the radio on the table, picked up the plug and plugged it into the power socket.

Then, Lin Kaifeng started to tune the frequency.

Along with the crackling sound, the announcer's clear and melodious voice came from the loudspeaker.

"Now playing the midday broadcast..."

Listening to the clear and loud broadcast voice on the radio, Fang Boyan had only one word in his mind.

Incredible.

Is it possible for a machinery factory to produce radios?

There was no radio factory in the entire urban area.

Where did they get their technology from?

Lin Kaifeng complimented: "Under the leadership and education of Director Fang, our county machinery factory has shown the spirit of daring to think and act, and the courage to try. Through reading books and bold practice, we have completely overcome all obstacles in manufacturing radios."

“The first batch of Handmade brand radios were produced.”

The more Fang Boyan listened, the more he felt something was wrong.

Is this still the county machinery factory he knows?

If you dare to think, dare to act, have the courage to try, and boldly practice, you can make a radio?

If only I had that ability.

Why is the county machinery factory so half dead?

“You provided the technical assistance, right?”

Fang Boyan stared at Lin Kaifeng intently.

Rely on the county machinery factory to carry out scientific research.

It’s better to rely on the sow to climb a tree.

The factory director is a reckless man, and the others are just ordinary people.

I simply don't have that ability.

The only possibility left is Lin Kaifeng.

"Haha, Chief Fang, it doesn't matter who invented it. What's important is that our factory has filled an industrial gap for the city."

“We have the ability to produce radios independently.”

“Without your guidance and love, we would not have been able to succeed.”

Lin Kaifeng then mentioned a large number of electronic components that he had applied for last time.

Without these electronic components and devices, it would be impossible for new products from machinery factories to emerge.

Tracing the roots.

Isn’t it Fang Boyan’s guidance and help?

"You have a mouth that can bring the dead back to life."

Fang Boyan shook his head and smiled.

I feel very happy about it.

Lin Kaifeng smiled apologetically.

In my heart, I am grateful to all the bosses in the 1980s, and also grateful to the finance department for being so meticulous.

The 1980s were a period of endurance for scientific researchers.

There is almost no research funding available.

Even wages and bonuses are sometimes delayed.

As the project leader, Lin Kaifeng was arguing with the finance department.

Begging everyone for research funding.

At the same time, we have to find ways to solve the various subsidies and bonuses for the scientific research team.

Do business and have a side job.

It became the unanimous choice of all scientific research institutions in that era.

He is not eloquent and not thick-skinned enough.

Don't even think about making money.

"Director Fang, I'm here this time, firstly to report the good news to you and the city, and secondly, to ask for a favor."

"You wait first."

Fang Boyan glanced at the radio on the table and asked, "Your factory hopes that the city will help coordinate the ordering of business units, right?"

"This matter involves the overall ordering task for this year, and the city needs to have a good discussion about it."

Hearing Lin Kaifeng say "I have something to ask for your help", Fang Boyan subconsciously thought of the issue of radio sales.

Inventing a radio doesn't mean you'll see money immediately.

Radios, like all commodities, are subject to unified purchase and sales.

Unified production orders, unified procurement, and unified sales.

The three are closely linked.

Lin Kaifeng explained slowly, "Thank you, Director Fang. However, what our factory wants from you is not sales. We hope you can serve as our factory's non-staff inspector."

"Extra staff inspector?"

Fang Boyan was completely confused.

The inspector was responsible for checking product quality, but he himself had no knowledge of radio technology.

How to test them?

"Yes, a non-staff inspector."

Lin Kaifeng said with a smile: "After collective discussion, the factory leaders decided to temporarily hand over the radio to the superiors for use for a period of time to help us check whether it has any quality problems."

Fang Boyan's face changed drastically.

"Comrade Lin Kaifeng, do you know what this behavior is?"
