Siheyuan: I am different He Yuzhu

"Deputy Director He, can you please take a quick look at what this is?" Zhang Jinyue stood in He Yuzhu's office, holding up a transparent glass bottle filled with white powder, his voice trembling slightly with excitement. His originally calm face was now filled with excitement, and his eyes were shining.

He Yuzhu stared at Zhang Jinyue's face full of passion and expectation, and a trace of curiosity surged in his heart. He subconsciously cast his eyes on the mysterious glass bottle, and various possible answers flashed through his mind. However, when he saw the white powder in the bottle, a bold guess suddenly came to his mind.

"Team Leader Zhang, could it be that... you are holding urea?" He Yuzhu couldn't hold back his excitement and blurted out. His eyes revealed an excitement that was difficult to conceal, as if he had foreseen what kind of surprise this discovery would bring.

Hearing He Yuzhu guessed what he had so accurately, Zhang Jinyue was stunned at first, and then a bright smile appeared on his face. He nodded vigorously and said affirmatively: "Deputy Director He, you really have a keen eye! Yes, this is the urea that we have successfully synthesized after going through so much hardship!"

He Yuzhu was overjoyed when he heard this. He knew the importance of urea to agricultural production. If he could master its synthesis technology, it would undoubtedly bring huge economic benefits and development opportunities to the agriculture of Rabbit Country. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but congratulate Zhang Jin from the bottom of his heart: "Team Leader Zhang, that's great! I didn't expect that you actually solved the problem of process parameters in the urea synthesis process. It's really cause for celebration!"

Then, Zhang Jinyue enthusiastically told He Yuzhu in detail how their team explored and experimented step by step to finally find the best urea synthesis method. He spoke nonstop, full of pride and sense of accomplishment, while He Yuzhu listened attentively.

After Team Leader Zhang finished speaking, He Yuzhu said, "Team Leader Zhang, I just listened to your description of the urea synthesis process. I feel that although you have solved the technical problems of large-scale industrial production of urea, from what you said, you have only completed one-time production, and ammonia and carbon dioxide are not recycled. I feel that you should continue to work hard to achieve the recycling of ammonia and carbon dioxide, which will not only improve efficiency but also reduce costs. Our country has a vast land area and more than 100 million mu of arable land. To ensure the supply of urea for so much arable land, we must not only have sufficient quantity, but also pay attention to the production cost of urea."

"Deputy Director He, you are right. My colleagues and I have already started follow-up research. Our next research will focus on two aspects. One is how to achieve the recycling of ammonia and carbon dioxide. The second is to continue exploring new processes for urea synthesis to see if there are any methods with higher efficiency and lower production costs." Zhang Jinyue nodded and said.

"Team Leader Zhang, now that I know the good news you brought, you should report to the Ministry of Chemical Industry so that they can make further arrangements. The urea synthesis process has been solved, and if we want to promote urea production on a large scale across the country, we cannot do without the overall planning of the Ministry of Chemical Industry."

"Deputy Director He is right. It is time for me to leave." Zhang Jinyue stood up and said, "Director He, thank you for your strong support. Goodbye."

"It's my duty. It's all for the country's development. It's too polite of you to say that, Team Leader Zhang." He Yuzhu stood up and walked Zhang Jinyue out of the office door.

When the exciting news that the Fourth Research and Design Institute of the Ministry of Chemical Industry had successfully made a breakthrough in the urea synthesis process reached the ministry, the entire leadership of the Ministry of Chemical Industry was stunned by this unexpected major news. You know, not long ago, the top leaders had just launched a severe crackdown on the phenomenon of exaggeration in various industries in the country, so at this moment, the leaders of the Ministry of Chemical Industry could not help but have a little doubt in their hearts - is this news true and reliable?

Faced with such a situation, the Minister of the Ministry of Chemical Industry made a prompt decision. He decided to send Deputy Minister Hou, who had a strong chemical background, rich experience and high moral character, to the Fourth Research and Design Institute for an on-site inspection to verify the accuracy of the news. After receiving the task, Deputy Minister Hou did not dare to neglect it at all. He immediately summoned a group of capable people from the Fertilizer Industry Bureau to form a large and professional team and marched towards the Fourth Research and Design Institute located next to the Red Star Steel Plant.

After a long journey, Vice Minister Hou finally arrived at his destination. At this time, leaders of the Fourth Research and Design Institute had already gathered in front of the gate of the institute, eagerly awaiting his arrival. However, the anxious Vice Minister Hou had no time to exchange pleasantries with them. He even walked straight to the front of the crowd without stopping, and asked directly: "Who is in charge of the urea synthesis process project?"

Zhang Jinyue quickly stepped forward and replied respectfully: "Hello, Vice Minister Hou, I am the leader of the urea synthesis process group, my name is Zhang Jinyue." After that, Zhang Jinyue looked at Vice Minister Hou with a pious face. In the eyes of chemical technicians, Vice Minister Hou is a god-like figure. Who wouldn't be excited to see the real person?

"Hello, Team Leader Zhang! On behalf of the Ministry of Chemical Industry, I would like to extend my warmest congratulations to your team for the great achievement of successfully breaking through the urea synthesis process! Now, could you please take me to visit the urea synthesis device?" Deputy Minister Hou said with a smile and sincere words.

"Of course, Vice Minister Hou, please follow me." Zhang Jinyue responded readily, but just as he said that, he suddenly realized a thorny problem - on weekdays, they usually choose to ride bicycles to go to the Red Star Steel Plant test base. However, at this moment, they have to take Vice Minister Hou with them, and it is obviously impossible to ride a bicycle to carry Vice Minister Hou to the destination. Thinking of this, Zhang Jinyue couldn't help feeling embarrassed and stood there awkwardly, not knowing what to do.

At this moment, the sharp-eyed Deputy Minister Hou saw through Zhang Jinyue's predicament at a glance, and said with understanding: "Don't be embarrassed, Team Leader Zhang, let's go in my car. When the time comes, you will have to sit in the front seat to give directions to the driver." After that, Deputy Minister Hou turned around and walked towards his own car.

Soon, a black SUV drove out smoothly and sped towards the Red Star Steel Plant test base. Along the way, Vice Minister Hou and Zhang Jinyue had a relaxed and pleasant conversation. During the conversation, Vice Minister Hou briefly asked Zhang Jinyue how they had overcome the difficulty of urea synthesis process. Because according to the information obtained by the Ministry of Chemical Industry, the Fourth Research and Design Institute is currently focusing on the research of carbonization method for ammonium bicarbonate production, but the carbonization method for ammonium bicarbonate production has not yet produced any results, but the urea synthesis industry has solved it first, which is incredible to the leaders of the Ministry of Chemical Industry.

Facing the concerned questions from the leaders, Zhang Jinyue described in detail and in an orderly manner the key steps in the entire R&D process, the technological innovations, and the challenges and solutions faced by the team. After Deputy Minister Hou listened to Zhang Jinyue's report patiently, he suddenly understood everything! So that's how it was. Thanks to He Yuzhu's help, everything now made sense.

At this moment, Zhang Jinyue, who was very careful, noticed the subtle change in Deputy Minister Hou's facial expression when he mentioned the name He Yuzhu. So he couldn't help but ask, "Deputy Minister Hou, are you also acquainted with this Deputy Factory Director He?"

Hearing this, Deputy Minister Hou couldn't help but burst into laughter and replied, "It's more than just an acquaintance! In fact, our headquarters originally planned to set up your Fourth Research and Design Institute in Jiangcheng area, but later it was because of the valuable advice of Deputy Director He that we finally decided to locate it near the Red Star Steel Plant in Sijiucheng. At that time, the reason put forward by Deputy Director He was very convincing - using the resource advantages of their steel plant to build an experimental base, this will not only provide great convenience for researchers, but also help them to explore new technologies and process flows in depth; and facts have proved that his proposal is indeed quite wise and forward-looking. Look, our Fourth Research and Design Institute has just been established not long ago, and it has successfully achieved such a huge research and development result!"

Zhang Jinyue nodded vigorously, with admiration on his face. He said in deep agreement, "Deputy Minister Hou, you are absolutely right! Many of Deputy Director He's ideas are forward-looking, there is no doubt about that. It is precisely because of the strong support and help from Deputy Director He that we were able to master the key process of urea synthesis so quickly! It is no exaggeration to say that without Deputy Director He, we would probably have to spend more time and energy to explore and research."

Just as the two were talking, the off-road vehicle drove into the fertilizer experimental base inside the Red Star Steel Plant at lightning speed.
